Answering those questions is Bill Hicks, who has brokered
deals and helped numerous companies and individuals chart the legal and financial challenges in the industry. As co-chair of the life sciences practice at the US law firm Mintz, Bill has r...2024-11-2814 minThe Life Sci FantasticUNDERSTANDING (AND TREATING) AGINGAcross the world, people can now expect to live longer.

That is the focus of cutting edge research being undertaken by a company called Juvenescence. Its CEO, Richard Marshall, is a highly distinguished doctor and scientist who is leading effor...2024-11-2122 minThe Life Sci FantasticFROM THE BENCH TO THE BEDSIDEIn an age of rapid technological development in medical science, how does a new treatment come about?

The Reading CultureKeep Me Out of It: Eliot Schrefer on the Costs and Benefits of Self-Erasure“I think it caused me to get over some of the sort of narcissistic impulses in my writing and not make it about me and impressing, but instead about having the best reading experience I could imagine.” - Eliot SchreferAt a young age, Eliot Schrefer acknowledged that he was hiding himself. Growing up queer when he did meant concealing a key part of his identity for the sake of self-preservation. It was through books that he first learned to accept his queerness. That thread leads to one of his most well-known books, “Queer Ducks (and Other...2024-10-2938 minThe Life Sci FantasticTREATING CANCERIn this episode Eliot continues to look at cancer, and how science is offering new and promising treatments for this all-too-common disease.

Tea or Books?Tea or Books? #78: 19th Century vs 20th Century and Two Unfinished Jane Austen NovelsSanditon, The Watsons, and a whistle-stop tour of the centuries – we’re back!
https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Tea-or-books-episode-78.mp3
In the first half of this episode, we take a suggestion from Elizabeth – do we prefer the nineteenth or twentieth century for literature? That’s an awful lot to cover, so we just look at British literature… and not very much of that tbh. But it’s fun!
In the second half, we look at Sanditon and The Watsons – two unfinished novels by Jane Austen – and pick which one is our favourite, and which we wish ha...2019-11-1400 minTea or Books?Tea or Books? #68: Tact vs Attack, and North and South vs Pride and PrejudiceThe books we hate (and should we tell you?) and Elizabeth Gaskell vs Jane Austen.
https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Tea-or-Books-episode-68.mp3
In the first half of this episode, we talk about the books we’ve hated – prepare for things to get contentious! – and then, perhaps belatedly, debate whether or not we should keep those opinions to ourselves. In the second half (thanks to a recommendation by Rebekah), we compare two nineteenth-century classics: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell.

Academy of Ideas#BattleFest2017: Are science and medicine threatened by borders?Scientists and doctors have emerged as among the most vociferous critics of Brexit and Trump. The March for Science expressed the concerns of many researchers and clinicians on both sides of the Atlantic about the future of funding and about the movement of researchers and students across national borders. Many were also alarmed at the apparent lack of respect for expertise and evidence in public policy. But whose responsibility should it be to fund scientific research? How can science and medicine best be defended and pursued, in an uncertain world of shifting borders?

The new Life Sciences Industrial Strategy claims that ‘in a country where productivity is a major challenge, public sector life sciences discovery activity… is dramatically more productive compared to other countries such as the USA or Germany’. What role will biotechnology play in the industries of tomorrow? Will it predominate as a durable, sizeable and job-creating sector, helping to turn around the UK’s flagging productivity, or does its value rest more in its place at the vanguard?

Did you know that until about 1970 Episcopal clergy were always called

per city.) The later Cardinal Newman was 'Mr. Newman', and Edward Bouverie Pusey was 'Mr. Pusey'.
But don't take my word for it. Read W. M. Thackerey, read E.M. Forster. See 'Showboat', the 1936 version.
