Adam Foote: The Sea Urchin Massacre

Adam Foote confronts the problem of obtaining sea urchins in land-locked Pittsburgh...during a polar vortex.

Adam recently graduated with a Master's degree in Biology from Carnegie Mellon University, and he is very grateful to his sea urchin friends for getting him there. His first memory of science is when he took a long bath after a day in the woods and wondered why fingers prune up. When he is not explaining science to both willing and unwilling audiences, Adam enjoys cooking, which is chemistry for hungry people, and playing music, which is physics for the ears.
