40 years ago a hole was discovered in the ozone layer. It provoked an international effort to ban the chemicals that were destroying our protection from the sun. Tom Heap and Helen Czerski are joined by Jonathan Shanklin, one of the team that realised that CFC chemicals used in aerosol cans and refrigerants were helping to create a 20 million square kilometre hole in the ozone layer above Antarctica. Also on the panel they speak to Alice Bell, author of ‘Our Biggest Experiment: a history of the climate crisis' and head of policy, climate and health at Wellcome, and Bristol University's Professor Matt Rigby who helps monitor how well countries are sticking to their promises on protecting the ozone layer.They discuss the unparalleled international unity that swiftly banned the worst of the ozone-destroying chemicals, and ask why we can't come up with a similar solution for manmade climate change. Tom will be delving into the black market in refrigerants and meeting the South American detectives dedicated to hunting down the chemicals that still threaten the ozone layer and come with an enormous cost to the climate.Featuring contributions from:Jonathan Shanklin - Emeritus Fellow, British Antarctic SurveyMatthew Rigby - Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry, University of BristolAlice Bell - Head of Policy: Climate and Health, WellcomeProducer: Beth Sagar-Fenton Assistant Producer: Toby FieldRare Earth is produced in collaboration with the Open University

What does a pink puppet called Connie have to do with ethics? More than you might think. On this episode, I'm speaking with a lawyer, whose innovative approach to getting employees to engage in ethics, involved turning to something we all know from our childhood, a puppet.Episode SummaryThat lawyer and my guest on this episode is Fraser Simpson, Associate General Counsel at the Wellcome Trust.  He's on the show to me to tell me about a creative and award-winning approach to embedding ethics in organisations. Fraser and the team at Acteon Communications tackled the challenge of inspiring ethical decision-making in a world where written policies often fall short. Their solution? Connie, a hot pink puppet who represents a conscience, prompting employees to ask, "What would Connie do?" Fraser shares how Connie was born from a need to engage employees in meaningful, human-centred conversations about ethics and compliance. We delve into why traditional approaches often fail, how behavioural science can transform organisational cultures, and why creativity is a powerful tool for behaviour change. Whether you're in legal, compliance, or simply curious about innovation in professional settings, Fraser's insights are both practical and inspiring. Throughout our conversation, Fraser illustrates the power of storytelling, humour, and simplicity in sparking conversations that matter. Connie's journey—from a sketch to a living, breathing character—offers lessons for anyone trying to make complex ideas relatable and impactful.Guest BiographyFraser is the Associate General Counsel at the Wellcome Trust, one of the world's largest charitable foundations supporting science to tackle urgent health challenges. Fraser's work that we discuss on the show focuses on developing a business integrity framework that empowers employees to make sound decisions in moments that matter.With a background in law and a passion for creativity, Fraser has pioneered innovative approaches to compliance, including the development of Connie, a hot pink puppet that embodies ethics and inspires employees to think critically.He describes himself as a dad of two first and a lawyer second, drawing on everyday challenges and creativity to influence his professional work.AI-Generated Timestamped Summary of Key Points[00:00:02] Innovative Ethics Solution (14 Minutes)Fraser introduces Connie, a bright pink puppet created to make ethics training engaging and memorable. By using behavioural science, Wellcome Trust demonstrates the power of moving from dry rulebooks to fostering value-driven decisions. [00:14:05] Revolutionizing Ethics Engagement (8 Minutes)The importance of using creativity to influence ethical decision-making, rather than over rigid rules, focusing on empowering employees with adaptable tools. Fraser explains how storytelling helps make ethics relatable and impactful. [00:21:50] Bringing Connie to Life (13 Minutes)Fraser shares the playful inspiration behind Connie's creation, including how a Hetty vacuum cleaner sparked the idea and how he worked with Acteon, a behavioural science-driven agency. Connie balances humour and professionalism to spark meaningful conversations. [00:34:32] Communicating Ethics Through Creativity (11 Minutes)The Compliance team has considered how to deploy multi-sensory strategies, such as tactile tools and music, to make ethics training more engaging. These creative methods integrate ethics seamlessly into employees' daily routines. [00:45:05] Launching Connie and Sustaining Engagement (6 Minutes)Connie's debut redefines compliance training by prioritising empowerment over box-ticking. Strategies like in-person meetings and digital tools ensure Connie stays relevant across the organisation. [00:50:51] Encouraging Ethical Conversations (14 Minutes)Fraser discusses innovative training approaches, such as regular ethical dilemmas and the "What Would Connie Do?" framework. These quick, consistent exercises develop decision-making skills and foster lasting habits. [01:04:50] Balancing Compliance and Personal Accountability (12 Minutes)The conversation highlights the importance of personal agency in decision-making. By promoting thoughtful judgment, the approach helps create a culture of accountability and better choices. [01:16:23] Inclusive and Accessible Communication (12 Minutes)Inclusivity is central to the approach adopted by Wellcome, including the deployment of a Braille Code of Conduct and other accessible formats. Fraser explains how Wellcome developed practical tools, like a mobile app, for use in critical moments. [01:28:34] Connie's Global Reach and Future Potential (10 Minutes)Connie's cross-cultural appeal in compliance training is explored, along with the vision of e-Connie—a virtual companion for ethical decision-making on a global scale.LinksThe Wellcome Trust — https://wellcome.org/ Acteon, the firm that helped to design and develop Connie — https://www.acteoncommunication.com/ Acteon's case study of Connie — https://www.acteoncommunication.com/case-studies/meet-connie-your-conscience/ Sarah Abramson of Acteon pitching the idea of Connie at ECEC, the 2024 European Compliance & Ethics Conference — https://youtu.be/iCf1CklbysQ?si=z5-Vt3xcC2loZLB1&t=1641 Sarah's appearance on this podcast — https://www.humanriskpodcast.com/sarah-abramson-on-speaking-to-the-human/

Recorded December 5th, 2024. A hybrid seminar by Dr Lorraine Grimes (Maynooth University) as part of the Medical and Health Humanities Seminar Series. Bio: Lorraine Grimes is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Applied Social Studies at Maynooth University. Lorraine has a PhD from the National University of Ireland Galway. Her thesis is forthcoming in the form of a monograph with Bloomsbury Academic in 2025 titled ‘Single mothers in Ireland and Britain: Pregnancy, migration and institutionalisation'. Lorraine previously worked with the Digital Repository of Ireland on the Archiving Reproductive Health project which is the subject of this talk. Abstract: Archiving Reproductive Health (ARH) is a Wellcome-funded project coordinated by the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI), working to preserve digital material created by grassroots organisations working for reproductive justice in Ireland, especially during the 2018 referendum to repeal the Eighth Amendment of the Irish constitution. The project was the first in the world to archive Facebook social media posts. A key part of the project was the archiving of stories posted on a Facebook page called “In Her Shoes”, where people anonymously shared their experiences of being refused abortion care, having to travel or illegally order pills online, and the emotional impact of these experiences. These stories often contained details of traumatic experiences such as sexual assault, obstetric violence and domestic abuse. This talk will introduce the Archiving Reproductive Health Project and archiving sensitive social media material. We will talk about anonymization procedures, coding/cataloguing and developing a self-care protocol and an ethics protocol for the project. Learn more at www.tcd.ie/trinitylongroomhub

A new satire from award winning writer Anita Sullivan, set at a fictional COP conference, with a talking Mosquito. Developed with leading climate scientists.Peter is a hapless politician representing the UK at COP in Paris. Hoping to retire soon – he didn't really want this assignment, but now he's caught like a rabbit in the headlights between the fiercely intelligent business analyst who has taken the place of his usual PA, and the changing landscapes of contemporary politics and climate crisis speak. Will he talk absolute rubbish? Will he keep his job? Will he sell our children's future to the highest bidder? What is African Horse Flu? And can anyone else hear that whining voice?The Mosquito was developed through OKRE Experimental Stories supported by Wellcome, in consultation with Professor Andy Morse (Professor of Climate Impacts at the University of Liverpool) and Dr Omnia El Omrani (Climate and Health Policy Fellow at Imperial College London).Interviews are used with permission from:https://hub.connectingclimateminds.org/lived-experiencesCASTPeter- Robert BathurstThe Mosquito- Laila AljFarah - Laila AljAddy - Audrey BrissonFaith - Ruth EverettMiles - Laurence SaundersThe Volunteer and other roles - Nuhazet Diaz CanoProduction Co-ordinators - Eleri McAuliffe and Noa DowlingSound Design - Catherine RobinsonDirected by John Norton.A BBC Audio Wales production for Radio 4.

Le 4e Sommet Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipation (GESDA), qui s'est tenu du 9 au 11 octobre dernier au CERN à Meyrin, a marqué une étape clé dans la préparation des leaders face aux bouleversements scientifiques et technologiques à venir. Parmi les initiatives phares de ce sommet, on trouve le lancement du Global Curriculum for Anticipatory Leadership (GCAL), un programme innovant destiné à former des décideurs capables d'anticiper et de répondre aux avancées technologiques. Ce programme, soutenu par l'organisation caritative Wellcome, propose des formations immersives dans plusieurs grandes villes à travers le monde, dont Madrid, Singapour, Pretoria, Istanbul, et San José au Costa Rica. L'objectif est d'équiper les leaders mondiaux des outils nécessaires pour naviguer dans un monde en rapide mutation. Un autre moment marquant de ce sommet a été le lancement du Geneva Public Portal to Anticipation, une installation interactive créée par Sarah Kenderdine de l'EPFL. Cette plateforme permet aux citoyens de s'immerger dans les percées scientifiques de demain et de mieux comprendre les tendances qui façonneront notre avenir. Enfin, l'introduction de l'Observatoire d'anticipation, un outil inédit, a permis d'identifier les tendances scientifiques émergentes et leur impact sur la diplomatie et la société. Ces initiatives s'inscrivent dans le cadre du programme plus vaste de GESDA, l'Anticipation Gateway, qui vise à démocratiser la compréhension des sciences émergentes et à préparer l'humanité aux défis futurs. Nous avons rencontré Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Président de la Fondation GESDA, qui nous a partagé son point de vue à l'issue de ce sommet.

Air isn't an object, right? Wrong. This week, climate comms expert and historian Dr Alice Bell makes Dan and Kasia think hard about ephemerality via a jam jar of polluted air, captured 'fresh' from the Euston Road in north London. In doing so they explore the history of the climate crisis – where it came from, who covered it up, and when people started noticing we were ruining the only planet we have.  Alice leads us through fog, smog and fumes, answering questions like: why were London's famous “pea-soupers” yellow-tinged (like yellow split-peas), rather than green-tinged? Why was coal dust understood to be a sign of thriving industry and progress? Why did unwell people go to seaside resorts to “take the air”? Which popular English meal was invented purely to give people a social activity indoors, away from the smog? Why have children always been at the forefront of the climate movement, from 1980s episodes of Blue Peter to the school strikes today? What do tobacco and fossil fuel lobbying have in common? Elsewhere, there is talk of Shell: The Musical, whaling ships, Captain Planet, Margaret Thatcher, and an answer to the biggest climate question of all, the one you've all been asking: what does Ludacris have to do with arctic drilling? Dr Alice Bell is Head of Policy for Climate and Health at the Wellcome.

Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for a disproportionate share of global disease-related deaths due to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Why is it so? Cai Nebe talks to Dr. Janet Midega, Senior Research Manager for Wellcome's Drug Resistant Infections (DRI) program, Basimenye Nhlema, Executive Director at Partners in Health-Malawi and DW correspondent George Mhango in Malawi.

In his talk, Stuart outlines the biblical vision for marriage, which informs God's blueprint for sexual activity throughout the Bible. He then goes on to apply this to our interactions with others, encouraging us to communicate this good truth with grace and wisdom in our conversations. This continues our teaching series called Sexuality, Gender & Singleness: Extending God's Wellcome to All.

Wellcome to MMP episode 260. Are you ready to rally?

¡Wellcome a un nuevo capítulo del podcast! En este episodio, hablo sobre cómo poner límites en una nueva estación y por qué es importante no esperar a las anualidades para hacerlo. Os hablo de una lista de temas que quiero tratar en este episodio, a modo de recordatorio. Llevo un tiempo muy a full con las grabaciones en el Lippypodcast, intentando encontrar tiempo para editar todo el material. Este es uno de los proyectos que continuaré ya que me he “dado de baja” de otros proyectos para poder enfocarme mejor. He pasado muchos años trabajando en el mundo del lipedema y he llegado a un punto, un impasse, donde he tenido que hacer una balanza y quiero compartir con ustedes lo que he aprendido. Dar mucho más de lo que recibía a nivel emocional me empezó a agobiar, ya que se me exigía demasiado. Como artista, he diseñado muchas cosas y no me he sentido valorada, no porque no me remuneraran, sino porque me hicieron sentir obligada cuando era un trabajo voluntario. Esto me llevó a un burnout, quedándome bloqueada y saturada. Hasta que me di cuenta que, como persona artista, neurodivergente y creativa, debía cambiar. Antes de llegar a este punto, me encontré con un mundo dividido entre quienes veían mal que yo me “lucrase” por mi arte y quienes lo apoyaban. En este episodio, les contaré cómo me centré en volver a estudiar y algunos detalles sobre mi experiencia en el doblaje. También abordaré la convivencia con la inteligencia artificial, un tema fascinante y muy actual. Además, quiero hablar sobre otros temas y os propongo que participen en las siguientes plataformas para votar y elegir sobre qué les gustaría que hable en los próximos episodios: Lipedema Ilustraciones (mi proceso creativo) La familia Tatuajes Estudio de doblaje Viajes (la experiencia) Cádiz, mi ciudad natal Mi blog, cómo nació Escribir por correspondencia Cómo es ser cuarentona Libros, lectura Películas Podcasting (crear) La música y yo Editar, cómo hago la edición Juegos de mesa Ser la tía preferida de tu sobrino Diferentes grupos de amigos Ser la del medio de tres hermanas Cosas viejunas Cosas catalanas Sueños raros, raros, raros Compartir piso Educación vial para peatones Acento gaditano Refranes Cumpleaños y regalos Obsesión con material de papelería Aprenderse los números de teléfono Nos vemos en las redes!! @labischita Mi pagina de artista diseño: https://arte.bischita.es Mi contacto: https://api.whatsapp.com/message/ABDI332UGBLML1 Mi paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/sabajanes --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/labischita/message

Alla vigilia delle elezioni europee del 2024, il fronte delle Destre, più o meno estreme, si presenta più forte che mai, anche grazie all'affermazione in Italia del partito di Giorgia Meloni. "È un fenomeno in atto sotto i nostri occhi, ovunque nel 'Continente nero', che rischiamo di diventare", scrive Francesco Cancellato nel suo ultimo saggio sulla Destra alla conquista dell'Europa, uscito a marzo per Rizzoli. Il tema è stato al centro dell'incontron ell'ambito della prima edizione di Valigia Blu Live durante il Festival Internazionale del Giornalismo di Perugia con il direttore di Fanpage, Francesco Cancellato, la corrispondente da Berlino per la Repubblica, Tonia Mastrobuoni, e il giornalista Stefano Vergine, che per l'Espresso ha contribuito a inchieste internazionali come Panama Papers, Malta Files e FootballLeaks.

As the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation absorbs much of the glory and not nearly enough of the blame, the Wellcome Trust has found a way to maintain a much lower profile in the States while they conduct human experiments on a large segment of the population. Investigative journalist Johnny Vedmore from Unlimited Hangout has been on the trail of the murky philanthropic organization for quite some time, watching and reporting back as they launched the operation in early 2020, then later intentionally drove the COVID narrative into a ditch. What do the people behind the Wellcome Trust actually want for humanity, and is it something that really benefits mankind, or is there a much darker agenda that has remained hidden until now?

When COVID-19 struck, the governments of the world weren't prepared, but Bill Gates and his partners were already in place, ready and waiting to move. The largest and most powerful was the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, one of the largest philanthropies in the world. Then there was Gavi, the global vaccine organization that Gates helped to found to inoculate people in low-income nations, and the Wellcome Trust, a British research foundation with a multibillion dollar endowment that had worked with the Gates Foundation in previous years. Finally, there was the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, or CEPI, the international vaccine research and development group that Gates and Wellcome both helped to create in 2017. Today we show you the suspects, their motives, the weapons they used to commit the crimes of the pandemic, and how they will execute the next one. On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we bring you a shocking story made all the more so by the fact that this information comes to us from a Far Left news outlet. Whatever you think you know about Bill Gates masterplan for world domination is about to get a major upgrade. Today we will show you how Bill Gates and the outlets he has funded have been laboring for decades to implement his dystopian eugenics agenda, and how the manufactured COVID crisis in 2020 was the exactly the opening he needed. The COVID crisis established Bill Gates as the de facto authority who decides how pandemics will be fought in the future. Do you find it a comforting thought that medicines like Paxlovid, Remdesivir, and the COVID shots and boosters, given to you by your doctor actually come from organizations financed and controlled by Bill Gates? Not only that, but every major world government, including the World Health Organization and the United Nations, have already ceded control to these 4 groups created by Bill Gates, and we will prove that today. If you fail to grasp what this Podcast will show you, you will be fatally unprepared when the next pandemic arrives, and it's coming sooner than you think.

In this episode, our guests tackle snakebite, a topic suggested by one of our research partner organizations, the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz) in Brazil. While snakebite is a neglected public health issue, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that each year, 5.4 million people are bitten by snakes, and up to 137,880 people die from snake bites. Host Garry Aslanyan speaks with Fan Hui Wen and Thea Litschka-Koen, snakebite gurus in Brazil and Eswatini, respectively, who reveal untold truths about snake bites in their communities and the complexities associated with producing and administering antivenom. Diogo Martins, the research lead for snakebite at Wellcome in the United Kingdom, makes the case for why we should consider snakebite a global health issue.Related episode documents, transcripts and other information can be found on our website.Subscribe to the Global Health Matters podcast newsletter.  Follow @TDRnews on Twitter, TDR on LinkedIn and @ghm_podcast on Instagram for updates.  Disclaimer: The views, information, or opinions expressed during the Global Health Matters podcast series are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of TDR or the World Health Organization.  All content © 2023 Global Health Matters. 

The writer and academic Emma Dabiri encourages unruliness in her latest book, Disobedient Bodies. She puts the origins of western beauty ideals under the spotlight and explores ways to rebel against and subvert the current orthodoxy. The book is accompanied by an exhibition, The Cult of Beauty, at the Wellcome Collection from 26 October 2023 to 28 April 2024. It was in the Wellcome's archive that the filmmaker Carol Morley came across the works and writings of the artist Audrey Amiss. In her new film, Typist Artist Pirate King, Morley creates an imaginative tribute to an unjustly neglected and misunderstood artist. The norm in the world of medical research has been the male body, but in her latest work the scientist and author Cat Bohannon focuses exclusively on women. In Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 million Years of Human Revolution she looks at everything from birth to death. Producer: Katy Hickman

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the benefits of sequencing infectious disease pathogens became more visible than ever before. The possibilities are huge: genomic sequencing is allowing scientists to unlock the secrets of disease prevention, helping dispel myths and stigma around disease outbreaks as well as allowing governments to act in real-time with targeted and often low-cost interventions.  In this episode Alisha speaks to Professor Christian Happi, Director of the African Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases, about his pioneering use of the technology during the 2014 Ebola outbreak in Nigeria which identified the origin of the virus. They hear from the lead researcher who used sequencing to map a subsequent outbreak in Guinea, changing how healthcare workers understand the disease.

Poor mental health has always been associated with lower socio-economic status, but what if you turned the idea on its head and administered cash transfers as a mental health treatment in and of itself? The scientific research community has long grappled with the lack of major breakthroughs in the treatment of mental health disorders. So could cash transfers hold the key to coming up with a universally applicable and low-cost mental health intervention?  In this episode Alisha is in conversation with Professor Vikram Patel, a world leader in global mental health, who explains the challenges researchers have faced globally in the fight against poor mental health, and the potential of using cash transfers. They hear from an early beneficiary of Brazil's Bolsa Familia cash transfer programme and meet the professor developing a pioneering new study with young people in Nepal, South Africa and Colombia.

With rising temperatures and shifting climates imperilling our crops, the food chain – from planting to consumer – is under threat. This could lead to higher food prices, poor nutrition, hunger and migration. Alisha is in conversation with Professor Ruth Defries, a global expert in ecology and sustainable development, to discuss how the world has become reliant on a small number of crops such as corn and rice, leaving us in a vulnerable position if these staples do not grow well as the planet heats. So how can we encourage climate resilience through crop diversity? They hear from a multi-country research project which is exploring whether indigenous crops could hold the key to creating more sustainable food systems, and meet a South African farmer who is helping keep these old growing traditions alive.  When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

It may seem obvious that a lack of sleep can exacerbate poor mental health - whether a symptom, cause or both, the two go hand in hand. But until very recently, there was little scientific research to back this idea up – and as a result, sleep treatments have been overlooked as a potential remedy for poor mental health. Prof Daniel Freeman is a clinical psychologist who's trying to change that. He's leading studies into the effectiveness of sleep treatments for people experiencing psychosis and getting positive results.   In this episode, Alisha speaks to Prof Freeman about the importance of sleep, its potential in fighting the global mental health crisis, and some of the surprisingly simple techniques that can aid a better night's rest. They hear from Ryan, who saw a dramatic shift in his mental health after taking part in one of Prof Freeman's studies.  If you have been affected by the topics discussed in this episode, befrienders.org can help you find a support service local to you.  When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

When Danish geneticist, Professor Eske Willerslev led the team that sequenced the first ancient human genome in 2010, he opened up a world of research possibilities with global significance. But this potential comes with risk. Research into DNA from ancient remains can upend understandings of history and ancestry within living indigenous communities and violate cultural sensitivities.  On this episode, Alisha speaks with Eske alongside Shane Doyle, a member of the Crow Tribe in Montana, USA. Eske and Shane have turned a collaboration into a friendship that demonstrates the power of an exchange between ancient customs and emerging science. Together they discuss the possibilities and the pitfalls of ancient DNA research, and how to build mutual trust and respect between indigenous communities and scientists.

Vaccines are formidable tools against infectious disease. But the success of a vaccine in one part of the world doesn't guarantee similar outcomes elsewhere. That's where human infection studies come in – where volunteers, closely monitored by researchers, receive a vaccine and are subsequently given a small dose of an infectious disease. This might sound worrying, but it is a quick and effective way to get data about whether a vaccine is working. Alisha speaks with Dr Dingase Dula, who researched a pneumococcal vaccine in Malawi, to learn more about the impact of infection studies. They also meet Becky Mkandawire and Stonard Mwale, who volunteered to take part in the study. They discuss the role of trust in human infection studies, what it's like to be part of one, and the importance of African-led research in combating infectious disease.

Around the world, roughly one billion people live in informal settlements – residential areas that fall outside the jurisdiction of governments. These communities live without traditional centralised sanitation and water systems. As a result, the settlements are vulnerable to extreme weather events like floods, which cause wastewater to spread through homes and lead to serious health issues.  As climate change and nearby development increase the frequency and severity of floods in these settlements, organisations like RISE (Revitalising Informal Settlements and their Environments) are trying to help. In this episode, Alisha speaks to Professor Karin Leder, head of research at RISE, about projects in Indonesia and Fiji that are collaborating with local communities to combine scientific study with infrastructure-building. They hear from Losalini Malumu and Ibu Ina Rahlina, RISE staff members and residents of informal settlements, who through their experiences demonstrate the critical role of collaborating with those most affected by these challenges.  When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

The world's wealthiest medical research foundation, Wellcome Trust, long disguised as an altruistic charity organization committed to helping humanity, has been knee-deep in the COVID corruption and has major and long-lasting ties to the British eugenics movement. With over $40 billion in funds, the organization has invested heavily in vaccine development and has been instrumental in providing shots to the developing world with the help of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The most concerning aspect might be the development of the Wellcome Leap program that seeks to become the pharmaceutical version of America's DARPA. With seed funding of $300 million and the former heads of DARPA leading the way, will Wellcome Leap become a savior for humanity or the group that extinguished it?

Psychosis is one of the most severe, and most stigmatised, mental health conditions. But what if technology could help us spot the signs early on? Could more accurate prediction help guide earlier intervention, to produce better outcomes for people at risk of psychosis? Alisha is in discussion with Professor Iris Sommer, a global leader in the psychosis field to examine exactly where the understanding of the condition is, whether we're approaching treatment in an equitable way, and how we can ensure earlier diagnosis and better treatment.   They hear from a therapist in Brazil, Dr Alexandre Loch, and his patient Tammy about how hard a diagnosis can be, and why it can often come too late to prevent the onset of severe symptoms. Alexandre also shares his innovative work using AI to spot whether someone might be at risk of developing psychosis, hinting at a potentially transformative breakthrough.  When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

Since the discovery of penicillin in the early 20th century, we've seen the risk of minor infections virtually disappear. But after years of antibiotics being abused and overused, we now face a silent pandemic where the treatments we rely on no longer work.  The potential scale of antimicrobial resistance, or AMR, is staggering, and there is a lack of awareness of just how dangerous it could be. Alisha speaks to Dr Anand Anandkumar, an engineer turned biotechnologist, to correct the misconceptions around AMR, and discover what we can do about it. We'll also hear from John Kariuki in Kenya, whose own experience with AMR almost cost him his life, and Benard Wanyama, whose project is treating patients with infections and monitoring the spread of AMR.  Together, they make a powerful case for urgent and collective action to stem the tide of superbugs.   When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

In the 1970s, when a heterosexual couple divorced, courts almost always awarded child custody to the mother, except in one scenario: when the mother had come out as a lesbian.   Professor Susan Golombok was determined to challenge these prejudices and to shine a light on the realities of same-sex parenting. She began studying a range of different family structures to build up a body of evidence which, over the course of her life, has had a tangible impact on everyday families around the world  In this episode, Alisha is in conversation with Susan about the influence and breadth of her work, from broadening societal perceptions to changing laws. We also hear from a couple who took part in the research and learn why it was so important to them, and the legacy it has left for families everywhere.   When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

As the world gets hotter and hotter, so do we - and just like crops and wildlife, we're struggling to cope with what extreme heat does to our bodies. Every year temperatures reach new records, and the way we live, work and rest are changing to accommodate it.   Kathy Baughman McLeod, director of the Adrienne Arsht Rockefeller Foundation Resilience Centre and chair of the Extreme Heat Resilience Alliance, talks Alisha through the realities of what heat stress does to us, how workers across the globe - from India to the US - are feeling the heat, and the tangible solutions being implemented globally to increase resilience. They discuss how women are disproportionately affected by this issue, and hear from the market traders of Freetown, Sierra Leone, a city on the front line of the climate crisis. They also meet the capital's Chief Heat Officer, who's part of an international network of women working to protect their city's most vulnerable communities from the risks of rising temperatures.  When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

In 1856, an American woman called Eunice Newton Foote discovered that higher levels of carbon dioxide would warm the planet. But credit for discovering climate change was given to someone else who made the same discovery three years later. We celebrate Foote's role in early climate science by recreating her little-known experiment and asking if there are some voices that continue to be overlooked in climate science today – and how we overcome these climate blind spots? Presenter Graihagh Jackson is joined by: Dr Alice Bell, Head of Climate and Health Policy at Wellcome and author of ‘Our Biggest Experiment – An Epic History of the Climate Crisis' Professor Regina Rodrigues, Professor of Physical Oceanography and Climate at the Federal University of Santa Catarina in Florianopolis, Brazil.

We are a teeming mass of interconnected microbes and the impact of this microscopic universe on our health, our minds, even our moods, is profound. Made in collaboration with Wellcome Collection, Claudia Hammond and an expert panel explore one of the fastest moving areas of science and what it means for modern medicine. Recorded in front of a live audience at Wellcome's Reading Room in London, Claudia discovers how our microbes could be harnessed to improve our mental and physical health. And along with the scientific insights, there are important answers to questions everybody wants to know the answer to, such as why some peoples' “emissions” smell so badly and how having a dog or cat enriches your microbiome. On stage with Claudia are immunologist Professor Sheena Cruickshank from the University of Manchester, microbiologist Professor Glenn Gibson from the University of Reading and neuroscientist Professor John Cryan from University College Cork in Ireland.

Infectious diseases are the second leading cause of death worldwide, killing tens of millions of people every year. COVID-19 alone has killed more than 6.8 million people, according to Johns Hopkins University. Drug-resistant superbugs directly kill 1.27 million people a year, according to one recent prominent study.Surely drug companies are all over this potentially lucrative market, with so many diseases to fight and treat?  However, they aren't. The US Food and Drug Administration has not approved a new antibiotic since 2019, and only one truly new antibiotic has been approved since 1987.It's partly because the money just isn't there. Companies making cancer drugs raised about $7 billion in funding in 2020, while companies making antibiotics raised a fraction of that – just $160 million. Plus, it's hard to bring a new drug to market. The National Institutes of Health estimates 90% of experimental drugs never even make it to testing in humans.In this episode, we are chatting with Kevin Outterson, a professor of law at Boston University and the founding Executive Director and Principal Investigator of Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator or CARB-X, a global nonprofit partnership funded by the U.S., U.K., and German governments; Wellcome; and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.Professor Outterson argues that antibiotics should be treated as infrastructure, and companies making new drugs to fight antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, viruses, and fungi –often called superbugs – should be treated as vital government contractors and paid upfront for the work they do that could save tens of millions of lives. Listen as he describes the problem, and potential solutions, with One World, One Health host Maggie Fox.

Six and a half million dead. More than a hundred times that infected. The Covid-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc across the globe. But in the final months of the third year of this health crisis, some now claim it's all over. Scientists with key roles in the global response join Claudia Hammond to consider the evidence behind the declarations that the pandemic has finished and they set out how, officially, this global health crisis will be brought to an end. They reject claims that the pandemic is over, but say the emergency phase of this global health crisis is coming to a close. But only if countries remain vigilant and maintain pandemic preparedness. If vaccines reach arms, if treatments are shared equally and if nations re-introduce public health measures like mask wearing and social distancing when the inevitable new waves (and potential new variants) emerge, the appalling loss of life we saw at the beginning of the pandemic, they tell Claudia, won't be repeated. There are stark warnings too that the dramatic global drop in the sequencing of virus samples (which enables us to see how the virus is evolving) is posing a serious risk. We can't react to a new threat, Claudia's panel say, if you can't see it. Sequencing, as well as testing, has fallen by 90% since January this year, from 100,000 weekly sequences ten months ago to less than 10,000 now. This severely limits the ability to track the known variants (currently 200 sub-lineages of the Omicron variant). Produced in collaboration with Wellcome and recorded in front of a live audience in Wellcome's Reading Room in London, Claudia's expert panel includes Dr Maria Van Kerkhove, the World Health Organisation's Technical Lead for Covid-19, Professor Salim Abdool Karim, co-chair of the south African Ministerial Advisory Committee on Covid-19 and a member of the Africa Task Force which oversees the African continent's response to the virus and Professor Sir Jeremy Farrar, the Director of Wellcome and a former adviser to the UK government on its Covid response.
