Hi everyone! 

A special thank you to every single one of our listeners, especially those of you from different countries around the world! 

This episode Sarah and Sonia discuss using bread as a scaffold for cell and tissue culture and how encouraging cell metabolism in ageing cells shows repair against neurodegeneration! 

We were joined by Dr Versha Prakash, a RHUL alum who took her skills and passion for the future of science to Arctoris as their Head of Partnerships. We discussed the idea of institutionalisation, representation in science and, of course, the stupidest thing she's done in the lab! 

We hope you're all doing well! 

Note: We do not own the rights to any of the papers mentioned in the podcast, we are simply interested in high quality research in our community and would like to share the results with people from all walks of life and levels of education. We endeavour to share the original papers with you in the description boxes for you to read them yourself. Nothing but the biggest respect to our fellow scientists who publish their work in journals across the world!
