Is the Y Chromosome Disappearing?

Hello, and welcome to Socratic Studios! I’m Sunjum Sanghari, and this episode’s topic will be the fate of the human Y chromosome, which is degrading and could disappear in a few million years. With me today I have Dr. Jenny Graves from La Trobe University, a recipient of the Prime Minister’s Prize for Science in 2017 for her work studying the evolution and future of sex chromosomes.
