Steve Minton, associate professor in applied and clinical psychology at the University of Plymouth, delves into this. I am a human being in formation – currently, a father, partner, brother, uncle and friend; English-born of English, Scottish and Irish Traveller descent; and a […]

Dr. Susan Blackmore is a Visiting Professor at the University of Plymouth with an interest in psychology, consciousness, memes, and anomalous experiences. We speak with her about the arc of her research into out of body experiences. We talk with her about her fruitless search for robust evidence of astral phenomena, her transition into psychological research, and how she squares the illusory self uncovered during meditation with the material evidence of consciousness.

Today's episode is about finding new horizons in dementia care and it focuses on two different approaches in the UK that are having positive impacts on the period of diagnosis and life with dementia - from brand new technology that's increasing the speed and accuracy of Alzheimer's diagnosis to how a community led approach can transform the everyday experiences for people with dementia. We're delighted by two esteemed guests for this discussion. Firstly, Dr. Timothy Rittman from the department of Clinical Neurosciences at the University of Cambridge. Tim is working alongside his colleague, Professor Zoe Kourtzi on an AI program that uses brain scans to predict whether somebody will develop Alzheimer's, and how fast the disease will progress. We're also talking to Ian Sherriff, who's been leading efforts throughout an astounding number of organisations in the UK, including the University of Plymouth, to shape supportive and enabling communities for people living with dementia. Some of the fantastic work he's done has involved doctors and dentists surgeries, airlines and airports, 10,000 parishes and rural communities across the UK. Call to action!

In this episode, Ryan and Becky are joined by Maisie Hinds (Instagram: @maisiesdentaldiary), a student from University of Plymouth who has just finished her 3rd year! They discuss what makes Plymouth (AKA Peninsula Dental School) stand out as a Dental School, a year by year break down and teaching style! Fun fact: Plymouth has 3 campuses which you would be required to attend, one being Truro which you would move to for a year! Make sure to listen to all dental school episodes when Ryan and Becky are joined by a student from each UK dental school ahead of UCAS applications in October!

In this episode, I look at a great example of content marketing from the education marketing world. I flick through the University of Plymouth's Student Life Magazine that I received in the post recently. Employers, particularly in the apprenticeship and graduate space, can take great inspiration from this.  Universities recruiting students is big business: Big-ticket products (annual cost of student life starts at around £9,000) are marketing in an ultra-competitive national and international market.  In April 2019, The Guardian found university marketing budgets in the hundreds of thousands to millions of pounds. The cost of not recruiting enough students has a very clear cost to universities. The same should be said of not recruiting enough of the right employees.  If you were to take the same approach as Student Life for your apprenticeship or graduate marketing what would it look like (online and offline)? I'd love to hear from you.  Here are links to things I talk about in this episode: 1. Student Life Magazine (the latest issue isn't online yet but you get a good feel for the approach in the issues here): http://bit.ly/396v7RY  2.

Along with Organizational Resiliency, Community Resiliency is a hot topic in today's Business Continuity / Disaster Planning world. For this episode we talk to Professor Geoff A. Wilson from the University Of Plymouth, UK. Prof. Wilson is also the author of 'Community Resilience and Environmental Transitions', which will be our focus for this show. Prof Wilson will talk to us to better understand Community Resilience and what disturbances - both natural and anthrogenic in nature, impact our communities and how we identify resilience communities from non-resilient communities. We'll also learn what factors can help us create resilient communities and what factors can cause a resilient community to become less resilient.

Our society uses - and then throws away - a vast amount of plastic, which then accumulates in the environment. To combat this, in recent years, new types of plastic bags have become available, labelled as "compostable" or "biodegradable."Both of these terms indicate the bag can break down and so avoid pollution, although biodegradable bags take longer than compostable bags. There's also a third type, oxo-biodegradable, which have an additive that should make them decompose a bit faster than standard biodegradable bags.So when you see a plastic bag labelled "biodegradable," how long do you...
