    Writers Cut: "Bionic breakthrough: how tissue-integrated knees restore mobility following amputation"

    In this episode, Apeksha and Aditi sit down with Burinat, the writer of Bionic Breakthrough: How Tissue-Integrated Knees Restore Mobility Following Amputation. We discuss the limitations of current below the knee amputation and how bionic knees is transforming mobility, what the surgical procedure looks like for this and the studies assessing proprioception, obstacle avoidance and mobility tasks.

    Writer's Cut: "Beyond Animal Testing: Are Organs-on-Chips the Future of Drug Discovery?"

    In this episode, Apeksha and Laziza sit down with Mohammad, a second-year student in Biomedical Science here at King's, to talk about the new model of drug testing. The model is called Organs-on-Chips, and the idea is that this artificial model is designed to accurately reflect the outcomes that real organs would. Tune in for a very interesting conversation to find out about this fascinating innovation!

    The "Zombie Cell" Theory: Is Ageing Actually a Disease?

    Why do our bodies actually break down? And why is age the biggest risk factor for cancer? It’s not just "wear and tear", it’s also a biological program, and we might be able to hack it. In this first episode of Semester B, Apeksha, Laziza, and Aditi dive deep into the Biology of Ageing. We break down the famous "Hallmarks of Aging" paper, explain why "Zombie Cells" (Senescence) turn your body into fertile soil for cancer, and debate the controversial question: Should aging be classified as a treatable disease? We discuss: The Paradox: Why the mechanisms that save us when young (stopping cancer) kill us when old. The "Unguarded X": The biological reason women live longer than men but often age with more health issues. Innovation: How 2026 tech like Histotripsy is liquefying pancreatic tumors without incisions. Lifestyle: How sleep and diet physically change your telomeres (backed by the UK Biobank study).
