Adverse drug events cause 5-15% of admissions to hospital and drug-drug interactions make up about a fifth of these. Most common are pharmacodynamic situations where two drugs have a similar outcome thereby overdoing the intended outcome. Pharmacokinetic interactions are more complicated to understand as they're more indirect. For example, while medications are cleared by oxidative metabolism in the liver and gut, there are many drugs that interfere with the function of the cytochrome enzymes responsible. This can result in clearance of the first drug at too fast or too slow a rate.Polypharmacy has become more frequent over the decades with more than half of people over the age of 75 on five or more prescriptions. This episode examines some of the systems that have led to current rates of polypharmacy, and strategies for deprescribing safely in a given patient. We're REWINDing it nine years after it was first published to celebrate the career of Professor Ric Day who has just retired after sixty years of service at St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney. He has been a much-appreciated clinician and prolific research academic with several hundred published papers that have been cited more than forty thousand times.Chapters0:50 Prevalence of drug interactions5:52 Pharmacodynamic vs pharmacokinetic interactions 9:25 Cytochrome enzymes17:33 ACE inhibitors and more26:48 Strategies for deprescribingGuests Professor Richard Day AM MBBS, FRACP (St Vincent's Hospital; UNSW),Professor Sarah Hilmer AM PhD FRACP FAAHMS (Royal North Shore Hospital; Kolling Institute/ USyd). ProductionProduced by Mic Cavazzini DPhil.

The claim that real change is enabled by grassroots, community-based movements might seem a distant ideal, but Dr Geraldine Fela shows such assertions are far from hypothetical. Critical Care: Nurses on the Frontline of Australia's AIDS Crisis (UNSW Press, 2024) shows that grassroots movements were what made Australia's response to the AIDS epidemic better than elsewhere. HIV and AIDS devastated communities across Australia in the 1980s and 1990s. In the midst of this profound health crisis, nurses provided crucial care to those living with and dying from the virus. They negotiated homophobia and complex family dynamics as well as defending the rights of their patients. Bringing together stories from across the country, historian Geraldine Fela documents the extraordinary care, compassion and solidarity shown by HIV and AIDS nurses. Critical Care unearths the important and unexamined history of nurses and nursing unions as caregivers and political agents who helped shape Australia's response to HIV and AIDS.

The ongoing conflict between Iran, the US and Israel has not only led to the deaths of many thousands of people, it has destabilised the global world order. As a middle power, Australia is being drawn into the conflict amid global pressures and strategic resource dependencies. Closer to home, the conflict is having a destabilising impact on Australia’s economy and enhancing other ongoing issues, such as rising inflation and concerns of higher unemployment. UNSW’s Nalini Prasad explains how global and domestic trends in the economy are impacting the Aussie wallet, and your standard of living. She will explain how these trends are threatening an economic situation called ‘stagflation’, unseen since the 1970s and difficult to solve through traditional policy levers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When Nila Ibrahimi posted a video of herself online, singing proudly in protest of the ban on girls over 12 singing in public, she hoped the music would inspire young girls to continue their education. It was 2021 and the Taliban’s return to Afghanistan had come down swiftly on women's freedom. The video went viral and the ban was reversed, sending a powerful message across social media – women of Afghanistan would not be erased from public life. The Taliban would, however, go on to prohibit female education and Nila and her family would have to flee her homeland. Undeterred, Nila continues to advocate for Afghan girls from Canada.Listen in to winner of the 2024 International Children’s Peace Prize Nila Ibrahimi in her first ever visit to Australia. In conversation with UNSW’s Verity Firth, they’ll unpack how peaceful grassroots activism can empower people of all ages to challenge authority and the importance of a right to education.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alexander Pui is back on the show today for his third appearance. He's been one of the most popular guests over the history of the Finding Nature podcast and I jumped at the opportunity to chat again while he was recently back in Sydney. For those who know Alex they know they're in for the usual standard of excellence regarding all things physical climate risk, the state of activity and effort underway to better understand future scenarios and how the science of climate change is outpacing meaningful efforts to mitigate emissions and their long lasting impacts and risks everywhere. For those newer to the show, Alex has been an important figure in my own career when we worked together at a very large yellow coloured bank in Australia, before he moved to Japan a couple of years ago to take on a lead role in climate risk across Asia Pacific with one of the world's largest professional services organisations.Over the course of his career he's worked in banking, insurance, reinsurance and consulting, he's also an Adjunct Fellow at the University of New South Wales and Visiting Scholar at Kyushu University.For our third time around the Finding Nature microphones we get into a lot of topics and themes that are both updates on previous episodes as well as fresh from both of our insights and work over the last 12 months. From the experience of oppressive heat and new heatwave classification systems in Japan to the impacts of storms, flooding and typhoons across Asia in 2025. We get into the expectations and the science of the emerging super El Niño and what the next period of supercharged climate activity is likely to bring, the quality and value of the recently completed Climate Vulnerability Assessment into the Australian insurance industry, where insurers are and aren't acting, the lessons and practicalities of climate risk management when all the attention is now on box ticking the new Australian climate disclosure legislation, and one of my very favourite topics - competence greenwashing. There's also an insight into a potential climate resilience idea in Japan for the Australian listener right at the very end, so stay tuned for that one and get in contact if it interests you.Support for this episode comes from:Reposit Power - $500 off your solar battery installation. Planet Protein - double the value of your first order at no extra cost.Send me a messageThanks for listening.

Cybersecurity is often framed as a technology problem. Andrew Reeves argues it is fundamentally a human one. Dr Miah Hammond-Errey sits down with Dr Andrew Reeves, Deputy Director of UNSW's Institute for Cyber, registered organisational psychologist and cybersecurity leader, to examine what psychology reveals about attack, defence and victimhood in cybersecurity. From the power of cyber deception, to why security awareness training can backfire, to what cognitive load means for the people defending our networks, this is a conversation about the human factors that determine whether cybersecurity actually works.Andrew and Miah discuss the collaborative research project between UNSW's Institute for Cyber and Strat Futures, mapping the cybersecurity implications of emerging technologies in Australia over the next two to five years. Andrew shares what the data is revealing about the convergence of AI, biotechnology and brain-computer interfaces, why the most critical developments will come from how technologies interact rather than any single breakthrough, and what the tension between sovereign capability and international collaboration means for Australian organisations. They also discuss cyber security lessons from the golden age of piracy, the psychology of leadership under fatigue, and what forest bathing has to do with making better decisions.

Every day, generative AI is pumping millions of new pictures into existence. Researcher and UNSW lecturer Dr Charu Maithani is redefining how we think about the images flooding our world, exposing how they capture only the narrowest sliver of human experience. Her work reveals how reimagining the way AI is trained – what it sees, learns, and absorbs from culture – defines our visual vocabulary and reshapes our collective imagination.

Bill Simmonds was from Bunbury, Western Australia. A pilot with the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) 77 Squadron, during the Korean War he flew P-51 Mustangs before converting to the Gloster Meteor jet fighter. On the 8th of May 1952 he became one of the few Australian 'Mig Killers' of the conflict after shooting down a Communist MIG-15 while escorting US bombers over North Korea. He went onto a distinguished career in the RAAF. He was seconded both to the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and US Air Force (USAF) and was a member of the 77 Squadron aerobatic team before retiring at the rank of Air Vice Marshal. This episode contains elements of an interview recorded for the television series 'Australians at War', available at the 'Australians at War Film Archive' (UNSW/2563).

Gillian Moon is today's guest. Gillian is a legal scholar who in recent years has been leading the Australian Climate Accountability Project within the Australian Human Rights Institute. Over the course of her career she's worked in and specialised at the intersection of human rights law, climate change, international economic law and development policy. I first came across Gillian a few years ago when the Australian Climate Accountability Project was first established and started releasing some of its work which was looking at the specific risks and human harms climate change has, is and will continue to create, supplemented by an extensive analysis of Australia's emissions profile when fossil fuel exports are accounted for. That work stood out as it started to indicate how rights are adversely affected by a changing climate, and over the past few years Gillian and her colleagues have continued to evolve and mature their analysis, commentary and documentation, including the seminal work last year; State of denial: Australia's legal obligations for human rights harms within Australia from its fossil fuel exports.I worked in the corporate human rights space for a good chunk of my career and have always been surprised that the adverse harms to individual and collective rights that climate change is delivering aren't better understood nor spoken about. As I've tried to do on this show in better understanding the legalities of accountability around climate change, I'm somewhere between convinced and hopeful that human rights and the law can be valuable levers for meaningful action and restorative justice. The International Court of Justice's advisory opinion regarding the obligations of states in respect of climate change was a key moment in the recent history of the climate equity and justice struggle, but as we hear about from Gillian in this episode, much, much more is still required.We chat about Australia's insincere and hypocritical fossil fuel and emissions story, the country's haphazard and unhelpful human rights regulatory and legislative frameworks and structures, and the role of international obligations in all of this. We also get into how legal scholars, health practitioners and climate scientists are beginning to converge around a methodological understanding of how to match climate attribution science to health impacts and the legal consequences of new and expanding fossil fuel projects. As knowledge in these areas accelerate, the potential for rapid change is entirely plausible. This work, that Gillian played a key role in, found that Woodside's Scarborough gas project off the coast of Western Australia would lead to 484 addition heath related deaths in Europe alone this century, and kill about 16 million additional corals on the Great Barrier Reef in the same time. This is fascinating, important and potentially material developments in surfacing real human rights harms that could and should be incorporated into approval decisions.Gillian is a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and in the battle to beat fossil fuels and intransigent politicians, what she and her colleagues are developing is likely going to become a major force in this next phase of action.Check out Reposit Power to get $500 off your solar battery system that will work. Subscribe, rate & share.Ep.114Send me a messageThanks for listening.

We are consistently reminded that Australia is a maritime trading nation and, as such, is exposed to all the vulnerabilities. So why haven't we prepared accordingly? As the ceasefire in the Middle East collapses and both sides begin to once again ramp up their efforts to assert control over the Strait of Hormuz and the globally sensitive waterway, Australia is reminded of its inherent vulnerability to global maritime shocks. To date, Australia's response to these challenges has been to default to the organs and institutions established by the post-World War II order, seeking arbitration, mediation and resolution, however, those mechanisms no longer suffice. In this episode of the Contested Ground podcast, host Steve Kuper is joined by UNSW's Professor Douglas Guilfoyle and Associate Professor Daniel Prior, authors of the World in Transition report detailing the challenges which face Australia and now thrown into public focus as a result of the conflict in the Middle East. The trio deep dive into the legal, economic and political challenges that have emerged as a result of the conflict in the Middle East and Australia's mounting issues that will only continue to compound in the coming months. They also discuss the ramifications of post-Cold War globalisation and the creation and vulnerability of the "just in time" supply chain ecosystems and what can be done to minimise our exposure to these challenges. Finally, they also interrogate the phenomena of "friendshoring" and "reshoring" as solutions to bringing supply chains closer to home as a means of securing national interests and what models can be leveraged to change Australia's self-inflicted vulnerability.

Looksmaxxing is taking over millions of young men’s algorithms - a trend focused on maximising appearance that can start off harmless, but spiral into extreme measures to appear more masculine. This week, looksmaxxer influencer Clavicular was hospitalised in Miami after a suspected overdose during a livestream. He’s previously spoken about using drugs, including methamphetamine, to suppress his appetite as part of the trend. After leaving hospital, he described his substance use as “a cope trying to feel neurotypical while being in public” and “not a real solution.” In this bonus episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith is joined by UNSW public health researcher Samuel Cornell who unpacks the rise of looksmaxxing and why influencers are selling so-called 'ascension' programs.

Four years after her first appearance on Chip Lunch, Aurelia is back—and she's been busy.Since we last heard from her, Aurelia's been studying law and psychology at UNSW, shocking rats in labs (ethically, she promises), hiking glaciers in Iceland during snowstorms, attending a future leaders intensive at Cambridge, and spending six months studying transnational law at King's College London: a dream she's had since she was 17.This conversation is full of surprising tangents. It opens with a 10-minute deep dive into the trolley problem , moves into why KFC chips are terrible, and eventually lands on chicken salt and vinegar, Aurelia's chip preference, which she's been committed to since childhood fish-and-chip Sundays after church.But beneath the laughs is a thoughtful reflection on what it means to be a Christian studying law. Tim introduces the Hebrew concept of shalom, bringing wholeness and rightness to the world, and suggests that even writing wills brings shalom by ensuring the right people get the right things and honouring a person's intentions. Aurelia takes that idea and runs with it, realising that good lawyering, across corporate law, acquisitions, or litigation, is about bringing the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.The travel stories are spectacular. Aurelia describes submitting an assignment 15 minutes late after throwing up all night from exhaustion at Cambridge, then presenting anyway because she refused to let it ruin her graduation celebration. She talks about hiking a glacier in Iceland at sunset during a snowstorm, visiting her grandfather's childhood home in Rotterdam without maps because she joked she'd "just know the way," and taking communion for the first time at a tiny English-speaking church in Amsterdam.And then there's King's College London—a dream Aurelia had at 17 that she'd forgotten about until she randomly checked her uni emails (rare for her) and saw an opportunity to study transnational law. She applied on the last day, got accepted despite being one subject short of the credit requirement, and spent six months studying with professors who are military advisors, UN court specialists, and leading experts in marine insurance and international institutions in crisis.

A comprehensive review led by cancer researchers at UNSW has found that vaping is likely to cause lung and oral cancer, even before long-term studies can confirm the exact risk. The study analyses a wide body of global research to assess the ability of vapes to cause cancer on their own, rather than as a gateway to smoking. The analysis draws together clinical studies, animal experiments and laboratory research examining the chemicals produced by e-cigarettes. In this episode of the Briefing, the study’s lead author Bernard Stewart, an Adjunct Professor in the Discipline of Paediatrics and Child Health at UNSW Sydney, joins Natarsha Belling to discuss "by far the strongest evidence" that vapes are likely to cause lung and oral cancer.

Conversamos com o professor brasileiro Alexandre Fleck Brandão, da Faculdade de Direito da UNSW, especialista em estudos sociojurídicos e movimentos sociais. Ele afirma que a Austrália vive uma ambiguidade na questão da coesão social: é referência em sociedade multicultural, mas há sinais claros de erosão desta estrutura. E a crise atual abre espaço para a ascensão de discursos de extrema-direita, que colocam a multiculturalidade como um defeito.

Producer's note: In case the title has stirred up some strong emotions, women account for 75-80% of this genre. Professor Catharine Lumby is an Australian academic, author and journalist, and is currently Chair of the Department of Media and Communications at the University of Sydney. Before transitioning to academia, Lumby had an extensive career in journalism, working as a feature writer and columnist for The Sydney Morning Herald, a news reporter for the ABC, and a columnist and senior writer at The Bulletin. She obtained her PhD from Macquarie University, after completing an Arts/Law degree at the University of Sydney, and went on to become the foundation Chair of the Media and Communications Department at the University of Sydney. Her academic career has included senior roles at UNSW, where she was the foundation Director of the Journalism and Media Research Centre, and at Macquarie University as Professor of Media, before returning to the University of Sydney as Professor of Media Studies. With research interests spanning gender, sexuality and popular culture, Lumby is also a widely published author and media commentator on gender and media, which makes her insights into the intersection of media consumption and social behaviors particularly impactful. Key Takeaways: The true crime genre has historical roots in 16th-century Britain and has evolved from public ballads to podcasts. Women's consumption of true crime is often linked to a desire for empowerment and understanding in a world with prevalent gendered violence. Fictional detectives use empirical reasoning as a counterpart to be analysed alongside faith-focused narratives in crime. The host's discussion touches upon legal responses to crime and human fascination with extreme acts, pushing listeners to consider moral and spiritual reflections. Empathy is highlighted as critical to understanding the broader implications of true crime stories, beyond mere voyeurism. Notable Quotes: "True crime is an opportunity to really perhaps understand things from the victim's point of view, the survivor's point of view..." - Professor Catharine Lumby "The Bible is a realistic book and it doesn't shy away from…difficult things." - Megan Powell du Toit "At its deepest, realising that none of us are that far…from what we might see as monstrous." - Professor Catharine Lumby "Empathy, for me, is the highest quality." - Professor Catharine Lumby "The cross itself is a kind of true crime. It's a realistic display of evil and ultimate redemption." - Michael Jensen Resources: Helen Garner's Works: Noted for her insightful writing on justice and human behavior.

Nitrous oxide (better known as "laughing gas") is widely used in medicine as a safe anaesthetic and pain reliever. It's also found in whipped cream canisters and even used in car engines. But Angela Chiew, toxicologist and Associate Professor at UNSW, joins me to set the record straight: the growing recreational misuse of this easily accessible gas is causing serious long-term harm, including nerve damage, cognitive damage, weakening of the spinal cord and mobility impairments.  Cases of misuse are rising globally, likely driven by how easy it is to legally purchase the drug in many countries. This episode unpacks the hidden dangers behind a gas many once thought was just a harmless high. Linkedin: Angela Chiew X: AngelaChiewA

Is it really possible to have an “acidic vagina” from taking too many probiotics? Why are we often sold a “Barbie doll” version of what our anatomy “should” look like? And, how do you actually start exercising as a self-proclaimed “lazy girl”? In this episode, Claire and Dr Mariam speak to Dr Mandy Hagstrom, an accredited exercise scientist and Associate Professor at UNSW, to find out how to get the biggest bang for your buck when it comes to exercise. They discuss the “weekend warrior” approach, why women might need less exercise than men to see the same longevity benefits and they explore cardio vs weight training. They also talk about why your exercise timing doesn't actually matter, debunking the social media myth that fasted morning workouts are the magic pill for fat loss. Plus, in Med School, we dive into the world of "spicy" vaginas. We look at the viral claim of "acidic vagina" syndrome, whether you can actually overdose on probiotics and why your lady parts are essentially a self-cleaning oven that doesn't need micromanaging. And, in our Quick Consult, Dr Mariam answers Amelia’s question about whether it’s normal for her vulva to be wrinkly or discoloured. We strip away the expectations and celebrate the "50 shades of beige, pink and purple" that make up real, healthy anatomy.
