Professor Sean B. Carroll (author of The Making of the Fittest: DNA and the Ultimate Forensic Record of Evolution) on NPR Science Friday

NPR's Science Friday interviewed University of Wisconsin Professor of Genetics Sean Carroll. Professor Carroll is the author of "The Making of the Fittest: DNA and the Ultimate Forensic Record of Evolution (Hardcover)".
