What's the difference between a threshold dose response model, and a no-threshold model? And what are the limitations of each? This week Risk Bites tackles the basics of dose-response models. This week's Risk Bites team: David Faulkner (Animation concepts, editing, closed captions) Andrew Maynard
What's is dose response, and what's it got to do with hazard and health risk? This is the first of a series of Risk Bites videos on understanding what dose response is, and why it's useful! This is part of a series of Risk Bites videos that tackle dose response and response models. This week's Ri
How much is too much when it comes to being exposed to something unpleasant? Using examples of fecal contamination on cellphones and cocaine on bank notes, Risk Bites begins to lay the ground for exploring dose-response. More information on the UK cellphone contamination study: http://www.eurekale
What is responsible innovation, and why is it important? Risk Bites takes a quick dive into why socially responsible innovation and ethical entrepreneurship matter, and what you can do to ensure good intentions really do end up making people’s lives better. Of course, we can hardly do the topic ju
Part 2 on acid-base titrations. The different titration curves are described and how the position of the equivalence point is influenced. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.

The reaction speed of the enzyme-catalyzed reactions depends on various factors. In this screencast, the dependence on the substrate concept is explained and the curve is derived. Finally, the Michaelis constant is described. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this v
In the series "Explain your Research" we introduce you to researchers from the BfS and their research areas. Patrizia is the first to do so: she uses so-called anthropomorphic phantoms to determine what radiation dose patients could receive with certain new X-ray and CT technologies. Original: "Fed
Throughout earth's history, climate has been akin to a rollercoaster ride. The "fever curve" of our planet shows the global temperature fluctuations to date - reconstructed using historical climate data. Author: ZDF/Terra X/Gruppe 5/Luise Wagner, Jonas Sichert, Andreas Hougardy Redub: alugha Cli
The universe is depicted as a flat grid. Earth, Moon and Sun dent this grid due to their mass. All celestial bodies then must move along the dents. But their centrifugal force acts against this. Author: ZDF/Terra X/ T. Schultes/ Nikolai Holzach Translation and dubbing: alugha Click here to see m
In the so-called cytokine storm, larger and larger amounts of cytokines are released uncontrollably. They then also "mark" healthy cells and cause the immune cells to attack the body's own tissue. Authors: 3Sat/Nano/docuVista Filmproduktion/Marilena Schulte, Maike Wurtscheid/Jörg Becker, Sergios Ro
How do you make sense of scientific models without falling into common traps? Here are three rules of thumb. This is part of a series of Risk Bites videos that tackle dose response and response models. This week's Risk Bites team: David Faulkner (post-production) Andrew Maynard (all the other stu
