Podcast appearances and mentions of margaret crane

Today, we take it for granted that you can buy a home pregnancy test at the pharmacy. Before the end of the 1970s, this was not the case. Then along came Margaret Crane, a young designer working for a pharmaceutical company. Looking at the rows of pregnancy tests in the lab one day in 1965, she thought, “Well, women could do that at home!” But Crane faced an uphill battle to convince the pharmaceutical companies, the medical community, and conservative social leaders that at-home pregnancy testing was safe and necessary.This podcast first aired in 2014, when Margaret Crane's role in the development of the home pregnancy test was eventually recognized. Almost 10 years later, Crane's experience remains relevant as women continue to fight for their reproductive rights. Making Contact is a radio show and podcast from Frequencies of Change Media. For a full list of the episode credits, go to: Buried History: The Feminist Birth of the Home Pregnancy Test.

In 1965 Margaret Crane was a young designer creating packaging for a pharmaceutical company. Looking at the rows of pregnancy tests she thought, “Well, women could do that at home!” and so she made it a reality for potentially pregnant people to be able to know about and take control of their own lives and bodies.  But while the design of the prototype was simple, Crane faced the issues we continue to fight when it comes to reproductive rights and the health and autonomy of people who give birth: an uphill battle to convince the pharmaceutical companies, the medical community and conservative social leaders that at-home pregnancy testing was safe and necessary. After all this, Crane is only now receiving credit for her contributions to the industry.

This is the second of two episodes where Kevin King and I conduct short interviews with several Early Career Researchers at last year's ABCT conference in Seattle. On this episode, we first interview Noah Triplett, discussing his work in the juvenile justice system on diversion and flexible facilitation and implementation of MH services in Kenya. Second, we interview Kayla Farise, who will describe her work with implementing services for families experiencing homelessness, Parent Child Interaction Therapy and cultural factors associated with intervention fidelity. Lastly, we talk with Margaret Crane, who describes her work on implementation policy, financing, and organizational factors associated with implementation success. https://healthpolicyresearch-scholars.org/scholars/noah-triplett/  https://www.kaelafarrise.com/ https://psych.med.brown.edu/people/margaret-crane-phd

Übel ist einem seit Tagen, aber sicher ist man in den 1960er Jahren länger nicht. Schwangerschaftstests beim Arzt dauern. Margaret Crane befindet: Frau sollte das auch zuhause prüfen können per Heimtest. Seitdem starren Frauen weltweit auf die Anzeige: Einer oder zwei Streifen?

Margaret Crane entwickelte eigentlich Kosmetikprodukte. Sie war Designerin in einem großen Unternehmen. Aber eines abends hat sich etwas in ihrer Firma gesehen, das sie auf eine Idee brachte, die so gar nichts mit Kosmetik zu tun hatte. Wochenlang hat sie getüftelt und gebastelt und erfand schließlich den ersten Schwangerschaftstest für Zuhause. Aber die Männer in der Firma blockten ihre Erfindung ab - ihre Begründungen waren ziemlich fragwürdig… Ob sie sich mit ihrer Idee dennoch durchsetzen konnte und was Schwangerschaftstests mit Fröschen zu tun haben, erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge! Das war die Anleitung zum ersten Schwangerschaftstest: http://bit.ly/3IW8GDc Und damit willkommen zum ersten True Science-Podcast! Wir reden über die absurden, irren, romantischen und verworrenen Geschichten hinter Entdeckungen und Erfindungen. Denn in der Wissenschaft gibt es jede Menge Gossip! Wir erzählen zum Beispiel, wie die Erfinderin des heutigen Schwangerschaftstests mit Hilfe einer Büroklammerbox den Durchbruch schaffte, oder wie eine Hollywood-Schauspielerin den Grundstein für unser heutiges WLAN legte. Immer samstags - am Science-Samstag. Wir, das sind Marie Eickhoff und Luisa Pfeiffenschneider. Wir haben Wissenschaftsjournalismus studiert und die Zeit im Labor schon immer lieber zum Quatschen genutzt. Schreibt uns gerne (podcast@behindscience.de)! Wir lieben Feedback, Themenwünsche und nette Grüße. Bei Instagram (behindscience.podcast) versorgen wir euch zwischen den Folgen mit Wissen.

Steve attempts to bait Joel into an hour of just bashing on Fox News and its followers in light of the recent 'Big Lie' revelations, but Joel isn't having it - which probably makes for a better podcast.  They end up talking about other things, like the fact that Steve has never watched the 'X-Files', The Coffee House (at 1324 'P' Street in Lincoln, NE), and why do people still have Twitter accounts. Joel also gives a shoutout to the new play "Predictor" by Jennifer Blackmer, put on by the Angels Theater Company. "Predictor" is the real-life story of Margaret Crane who, in 1967, defied all odds and expectations to become the inventor of the first home pregnancy test.

Folge 15 aus dem September mit „leichter“ Verspätung. Juni hat noch ein paar aktuelle Themen: in der letzten Folge hatte Philipp ja unter anderem über die Schwankungen der CO2-Konzentration geredet, Juni hat dazu nochmal ein bisschen recherchiert. Ansonsten gab es noch ein „tolles“ Interview mit Christina Nüsslein-Volhard in dem „tollen“ Magazin Emma über Transpersonen. Darüber haben wir uns kurz unterhalten, da wir Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard schon öfter erwähnt haben. Eine gute Analyse dazu verlinken wir unten. Nun zu erfreulicheren Themen: Margaret Crane ist eigentlich keine Wissenschaftlerin, sondern Designerin und nebenbei auch noch Erfinderin. Ihre Erfindung hat vielen Frauen das Leben vereinfacht, sie entwickelte nämlich den ersten Schwangerschaftstest - wie wir ihn heute kennen - für zu Hause. June Dalziel Almeida war Virologin und machte als erste Person Bilder vom Coronavirus. In die aktive Forschung kam sie über ihren Job als Technikerin für die Elektronenmikroskopie, wo sie bald begann, auch selbst zu veröffentlichen.

Septuagenarians Barbara Ballinger and Margaret Crane share their wisdom on aging, relationships, and finding passion. On this episode, we discuss their book, Not Dead Yet: Rebooting Your Life After 50.

Nyssa's Mia Clarke speaks to design thought leaders and historians Michelle Fisher and Amber Winick. They are collaborating on an incredible book and exhibition launching later this year, Designing Motherhood, which features more than eighty designs—iconic, archaic, quotidian, and taboo—that have defined arc of human reproduction. In this episode, Michelle and Amber discuss the designs that have profoundly shaped the motherhood experience, from the creation of the first at-home pregnancy test (invented by a woman, Margaret Crane), to the Finnish Baby Box to clear screens for c-sections births and much more. You can read more about the Designing Motherhood project here and check out the excellent accompanying Instagram here.Do you have questions you'd like Nyssa to explore with our network of experts?

Guest: Margaret Crane, Child PsychologistIntroduction: I have had many Meteorologists come on this show and when I ask them how they got a passion for weather, a good number of them were scared of Mother Nature’s wrath at a young age. But that fear catapulted them into a passion for learning about the science behind what is happening in the sky. However, for some people, that fear doesn’t turn into passion and could even develop into a phobia. My guest today is Margaret Crane, who is a psychology PhD student specializing in anxiety disorders like storm phobias.

Mice, rabbits, frogs and sheep – each took their turn in the development of pregnancy tests. You want to know if you are pregnant or not? Easy, right? Just buy a cheap and reliable kit from the chemist or supermarket and get an instant answer from a quick urine test in the comfort of your own home. But it wasn’t always so easy. In fact, the creation of the reliable pregnancy tests that benefit so many women, and that now cost just a few pounds, was a scientific battle that was only won thanks to a great deal of animal research and the determination of one extraordinary women. http://www.understandinganimalresearch.org.uk/news/research-medical-benefits/animal-research-and-pregnancy-testing-a-history/

A female designer working for an American pharmaceutical company came up with the idea in the 1960s, but her bosses didn't like it at first. Margaret Crane has been telling Maria Elena Navas how she had to develop her designs on her own after being told that women couldn't be trusted to use a home testing kit properly.Photo: Margaret Crane's first home testing kit.

In 1965 Margaret Crane was a young graphic designer with a crazy idea: Why couldn't women do their own pregnancy tests at home? This is the story of how she single-handedly created a billion-dollar industry that changed our lives forever, but never got any credit -- until now.
