20th July 1941. It is a dark night in war-torn Britain. In blacked out Sussex a band of men sit huddled in an old shed, deep in the countryside. One by one they make a pledge to join a very special little wartime club. A toast is drunk to the forming of The Guinea Pig Club.It was the most exclusive club in the world, but as the founding member admitted, "the entrance fee is something most men would not care to pay and the conditions are arduous in the extreme".The club was made up of Allied Aircrew who were all being treated by surgeon Archibald McIndoe for horrific burns suffered whilst in active combat.McIndoe was something of a pioneer, using groundbreaking plastic surgery techniques. He passionately believed that if the injured airmen were to have any future he needed to help them recover their place in the world. Unconventional, the doctor encouraged drinking and flirting with the nurses on the ward. One of the nurses granddaughter's, Dr Emily Mayhew, a military medical historian and author of The Guinea Pig Club: Archibald McIndoe and the RAF in WW11 lifts the lid on a extraordinary wartime club.

How active learning improves calculus teaching, and using machine learning to map odors in the smell space   First up on this week's show, Laird Kramer, a professor of physics and faculty in the STEM Transformation Institute at Florida International University (FIU), talks with host Sarah Crespi about students leaving STEM fields because of calculus and his research into improving instruction.   We also hear from some Science staffers about their own calculus trauma, from fear of spinning shapes to thinking twice about majoring in physics (featuring Kevin McLean, Paul Voosen, Lizzie Wade, Meagan Cantwell, and FIU student and learning assistant Carolyn Marquez).   Next on the show, can a computer predict what something will smell like to a person by looking at its chemical structure? Emily Mayhew, a professor in the department of food science and human nutrition at Michigan State University, talks about how this was accomplished using a panel of trained smellers, and what the next steps are for digitizing the sense of smell.    This week's episode was produced with help from Podigy.   About the Science Podcast   Authors: Sarah Crespi, Kevin McLean; Meagan Cantwell; Paul Voosen; Lizzie Wade     Episode page: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adk6142See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Made up of World War Two airmen, the Guinea Pig Club has left a lasting legacy on future RAF generations and were instrumental in helping Sir Archibald McIndoe develop pioneering plastic surgery techniques.  Our hosts Victoria Taylor and Emily Mayhew, explain how the Guinea Pig Club formed. From our archive, we also hear remarkable stories from members of the Guinea Pig Club themselves. Andrew Perry, son of Guinea Pig Club member Jack Perry, tells us of his experience of standing proudly beside his dad. Listen to our All Stations Series 3 Podcast, where we tell the incredible story of The Guinea Pig Club.

Dr Emily Mayhew is a military medical historian, and is the historian in residence in the Department of Bioengineering and a Research Fellow in the Division of Surgery within the Department of Surgery and Cancer, both at Imperial College London. Dr Mayhew wrote the Wounded trilogy, a series of books detailing medicine, conflict, and recovery. Her latest book, Four Horsemen looks at those extraordinary individuals and collaborations that are working to hold the line against war, pestilence, plague, and death. In this episode, we learn about Inca scientists, potatoes on Mars, and the importance of outcome studies.

In this week's episode, Alice talks to Dr Emily Mayhew, a historian of medicine at Imperial College, London. Emily specialises in the study of severe casualty - its infliction, treatment and long-term outcomes in 20th and 21st century warfare. Recently, she has worked particularly closely with researchers and staff at the Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies, based at Imperial College, and she is part of the team that put together the ground-breaking Paediatric Blast Injury Field Manual. She has published a trilogy of books on war wounds from WW1 to Afghanistan: 'Wounded: the Long Journey Home from the Great War', 'The Guinea Pig Club: Archibald McIndoe and the RAF in World War Two', and 'A Heavy Reckoning: War, Medicine and Survivial in Afghanistan and Beyond'. In the podcast we also talk about her latest book, 'The Four Horsemen: War, Pestilence, Famine and Death, and the Hope of a New Age'. The episode begins with Emily discussing the kinds of wounds that became a common feature of the two World Wars, what those wounds can tell us about the political and military strategies that were being followed, and how medical science adapted to treat them. With advances in medical practice, more and more servicemen ended up surviving their wounds - and that gets us talking about public perceptions of injury and disability. In contrast to soldiers who lost limbs during WW1, for example, pilots who survived terrible burns during WW2 often found themselves feted by an admiring public. That gets us thinking about the experience of more recent veterans, from the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the profound effects that blast injuries have long after the blast itself. Emily touches on the foundation of the International Committee of the Red Cross, the birth of humanitarianism - and what happened in 2016 in Mosul, when for the first time in its history the Red Cross did not get involved. We discuss the role of historians alongside medics and humanitarian organisations in providing a line of defence against War, Pestilence, Famine and Death - and how valuable those ancient Horsemen are in helping us visualise what is at stake. Along the way, Emily stresses the disproportionate impact of war and man-made famines on children - the often unseen victims of conflict. Among other questions, Alice asked: how do wounds help us visualise war itself?what 'iconic' wounds do we associate with different wars, and why?what wounds remain less visible, or less understood?how has the general public responded to war wounds over time, and what has shaped their understanding and attitudes?how interconnected is the history of warfare and the history of medicine?what difference does it make to visualise war as one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? how optimistic should we feel about our ability to keep those Horsemen at bay in future? We hope you enjoy the episode! *Please note: this episode was recorded in spring 2021, before the Taliban took control of Afghanistan.

The horsemen of the title are those of the Apocalypse, the terrifying outriders of war, pestilence, famine and death. Dr Mayhew considers developments in several fields to argue that we are pushing back successfully these dreadful tides. It's a gripping, lively narrative that is surprisingly uplifting. We wish we could take credit for the inspired choice of introductory music for this podcast but, in this case, those laurels must go to Emily herself.    Edited by Magnus Rena    Music: Denis King, Black Beauty Theme (Galloping Home)

What is the Guinea Pig Club? At the height of the Second World War, the sleepy Sussex town of East Grinstead played host to one of the most remarkable and revolutionary medical facilities of the 20th Century. The town's famous Guinea Pigs were severely burned airmen who had come to the Queen Victoria hospital for treatment under the scalpel of the great Archibald McIndoe. What happened from there has become the stuff of local legend and earned East Grinstead its nickname: the town that didn't stare. The Town That Didn’t Stare is written, produced and presented by Nick Hilton.   Intro and incidental music by George Jennings. End credits music by Matt Payne and Ollie Lloyd at Shipyard Audio. Podcast artwork by Tom Humberstone. The interviewees on this episode were: Emily Mayhew, Gordon Bebb, Jonathan Parrett, Kathryn Ferry, Jonn Elledge and Martin Jennings. This is the third part of a 6-part series available on all good podcast platforms.

Military Medical historian who is the trusted advisor to the CASEVAC club.  She is the only historian in the world to be found in a science department of a university and this has seen her become the Imperial Lead on the Paediatric Blast Injury Partnership.   We speak guinea pig club, her grandmother and the lessons learnt from previous conflict.   A truly fascinating episode.  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Heavy-Reckoning-Medicine-Survival-Afghanistan/dp/1781255857/ref=sr12?ie=UTF8&qid=1482743135&sr=8-2&keywords=A%20Heavy%20Reckoning

Worldwide, one in six children lives in a conflict zone. That's over 350 million globally, and yet we rarely talk about the impact war has on children and the medical care that they need. In this interview Dr Emily Mayhew discusses the Paediatric Blast Injury Partnership, a project set up between Imperial College and Save the Children. So much is still unknown about blast injury and trauma in children: what happens to their injury as they grow, how their treatment should differ from adults or what kind of rehabilitation and psychological care do they need? The Partnership aims to provide resources and people on the ground to better look after children in war zones around the world.
