About Bret Weinstein in brief
Bret Samuel Weinstein is an American biologist and evolutionary theorist. He came to national attention during the 2017 Evergreen State College protests. He is considered a member of the informal group of personalities known as the Intellectual Dark Web. Weinstein is Jewish and is married to Heather Heying, an evolutionary biologist who also worked at Evergreen. In 2002, he published The Reserve-Capacity Hypothesis, which proposed that the telomeric differences between humans and laboratory mice have led scientists to underestimate the risks that new drugs pose to humans in the form of heart disease, liver dysfunction, and related organ failure.
In June 2019, Weinstein began the DarkHorse Podcast, which is typically co-hosted with his wife Heather. He was a 2019–2020 James Madison Program Visiting Fellow at Princeton University, which continued for the 2020–2021 year.
