Future Feasts #2: From Soil to Soul

For billions of years, plants and microbes evolved together beneath the surface of the Earth. Modern agriculture changed that relationship, and scientists are now beginning to understand what was lost. In the second episode of Future Feasts, Prof. Roee Ozeri explores the hidden microbial world shaping our food, from wheat that may have lost its ancient connection to beneficial microbes to microorganisms engineered to turn carbon dioxide into protein-rich food. The episode follows the invisible networks connecting soil, evolution, food production, and even the human brain. Featuring Prof. Asaph Aharoni, Dr. David Zeevi, Dr. Ranit Kedmi, Dr. Yoav Livne, Dr. Orna Dahan, Dr. Noa Aharon-Hefetz, Dr. Shahar Rezenman and Sam Lovat. Hosted by Prof. Roee Ozeri
