    117. The future of global vaccine security

    Global health has hit a low tide, but the story doesn’t end there. In this episode, we revisit Dr. Jerome Kim of the International Vaccine Institute to explore funding cuts, shifting power, and how regions like Africa and Europe are stepping up to reshape vaccine security and pandemic preparedness.

    116. The beauty of innovation

    What does real innovation in life sciences actually look like? In this episode of Discovery Matters, we explore innovation from both a scientific and deeply human perspective. Guests Helena Strigård, CEO of Ventures Accelerated, and Lisa Lindström, Business Reinvention Leader at EY, share how AI, precision partnering, empathy, and behavioural insight are reshaping life sciences — and why true innovation depends as much on curiosity, collaboration, and judgment as it does on technology. From navigating financial headwinds to designing patient‑centred solutions, this conversation looks at how ideas move from possibility to real‑world impact.

    115. From synthetic guides to smart delivery

    In this episode of Discovery Matters, we explore both sides of the gene‑editing coin: the tools that cut DNA and the technologies that safely deliver them where they need to go. First, we’re joined by Dr. Stephan Riesenberg from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, who takes us inside the world of synthetic guide RNAs. Then, we zoom out to delivery and analytics with Adam Crowe, Senior Manager of Nanomedicine Analytical Development at Cytiva. Adam reveals why lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are both powerful and incredibly complex, and how cutting‑edge analytics are critical for turning promising gene‑editing tools into real medicines.

    114. Structural biology and crystallography

    In this episode, we talk with Prof. Tej Pal Singh, a leading figure in structural biology whose work has revealed the shapes and functions of hundreds of important proteins. He shares how these discoveries have helped us better understand immunity, inflammation, and disease—and how they’re guiding new approaches to designing medicines. From breakthrough crystal structures to innovative peptide work, Prof. Singh offers a clear, inspiring look at how structural biology drives modern medical progress.

    113. Eliminating sleeping sickness

    Kenya has eliminated human African trypanosomiasis —sleeping sickness — as a public health problem. Dr. Gerardo Priotto from the World Health Organization joins us to explain how Kenya met WHO’s rigorous criteria, the science behind the validation, and the partnerships that made this milestone possible. We unpack the challenges of T.b. rhodesiense, the role of surveillance and community action, and what Kenya’s success means for the global fight against neglected tropical diseases.
