Dr Prosanta Chakrabarty - I discovered a cavefish that we named 'big sickness' - for good reason
Unexplored caves can be scary, home to crocodiles, huge eels or tarantulas, but we can also find incredible new life in there.
Prosanta Chakrabarty professor and curator of fishes at Louisiana State University, I explore hidden corners of the world and find new species, which means going to places few people have been before.
Caves are sometimes home to 20ft crocodiles, or freshwater eels the thickness of my arm, which can be really aggressive and look like pythons on land.

The alien hunter: has Harvard's Avi Loeb found proof of extraterrestrial life?
The astrophysicist and professor likes to ruffle feathers - and says his critics are merely jealous. He discusses UFOs, interstellar objects and the risks of his all-consuming search.
Avi Loeb has a chip on his shoulder. For years, the Harvard astrophysicist has been trying to find aliens. He's in the middle of trying to record the entire sky with an international network of telescopes and recently travelled to Papua New Guinea to find out if a meteor detected in 2014 was actually part of an interstellar spaceship. Meanwhile, academics and pundits snipe at him in the media, and he’s sick of it.

Why we should all dig into poo - all you need is a spoon
Cowpats in a Cambridge meadow offer vital lessons in how a host of tiny creatures sustain our planet.
Prof Ed Turner, curator of insects at Cambridge University, digs into one with a teaspoon. Rather like an episode of The Great British Bake Off, he is talking us through textures and ingredients.
Cow dung contains 24 minerals - including nitrogen, potassium, sulphur, iron, magnesium, copper, cobalt and manganese - as well as a rich diversity of bacteria and fungi. "There is a whole suite of animals that feed on this," says Turner.
This is a nursery for new life.

Cowpats in a Cambridge meadow offer vital lessons in how a host of tiny creatures sustain our planet.
Prof Ed Turner, curator of insects at Cambridge University, digs into one with a teaspoon. Rather like an episode of The Great British Bake Off, he is talking us through textures and ingredients.
Cow dung contains 24 minerals - including nitrogen, potassium, sulphur, iron, magnesium, copper, cobalt and manganese - as well as a rich diversity of bacteria and fungi. "There is a whole suite of animals that feed on this," says Turner.
Prof Ed Turner examines a cowpat on Coe Fen.
This is a nursery for new life.

Small wonder: big DNA advances loom at university startup Oxford Nanopore.
Company spun out of Oxford University makes DNA and RNA sequencing devices to identify viruses and variants.
Oxford Nanopore, a spinout from Oxford University, produces devices used to identify viruses and spot variants in the genetic makeup of humans, animals and plants. Its sequencers have been used to track Covid-19 variants globally and are now being trialled on intensive care patients with respiratory infections at Guy's and St Thomas' hospitals in London, and in the fight against the 200 drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis, the second-biggest killer worldwide after Covid in 2020.
"Our DNA is not static: from birth to the life cycle of a plant, or an animal or a human, it changes over time, due to lifestyle, environmental factors," says Gordon Sanghera, Nanopore's co-founder and chief executive. "We are entering the genomic era; genomics will be at the centre of everything."
Oxford Nanopore makes a novel generation of DNA/RNA sequencing technology that provides rich data, is fast, accessible and easy to use.
