In this episode, Ina Sonnen, a researcher at the Hubrecht Institute in the  Netherlands, is interviewed by Postdocoral researcher JF Darrigrand. Ina explains which are the big questions studied in her lab, notably how cells can communicate not only via the nature of signals they exchange but also through the dynamics of these signlas. She shares how advances in microscopy, microfluidics and cell culture are helping researchers to make more and more discoveries. Having recently founded her lab, she tells us more about what she found was either challenging or rewarding in her new role. Lastly, she insists on why she thinks being a scientist is a good job when you want to start a family.

Episode 18 - Chris Baker

Earlier in the summer, researchers from across the life sciences took their research out of the labs and into the Central Hall of St. Thomas’ Hospital for International Clinical Trials Day. Using activities and lay posters, the scientists engaged visitors with a range of topics, from heart failure to neonatal scanning. Post-Doc Samuel Vennin went along to speak to the researchers about their work- take a listen to his podcast to find out more.
