Bridging the Gaps: A Portal for Curious Minds“The Next 500 Years: Engineering Life to Reach New Worlds” with Professor Christopher MasonWe are the only known species that understands species go extinct. We also understand that climate calamity, apocalyptic war, or the demise of the sun in a few billion years will all inevitably bring life on Earth to an end. So it is extremely important we do whatever we can to avoid extinction. We have a moral obligation to prevent extinction, and we have a responsibility to act as life-form shepherds—not just for our species, but for all species on which we rely, as well as those yet to come. This may involve finding a new home planet, developing in...2022-05-1942 minDiálogos y debates Fundación Rafael del PinoDiálogo: Tecnologías para impulsar España ¿Por fin la ciencia y la innovación?La Fundación Rafael del Pino organizó, el 17 de noviembre, el encuentro «Tecnologías para impulsar España ¿Por fin la ciencia y la innovación? » que comenzó con la presentación, a cargo de Javier García Martínez, Presidente de la Unión Internacional de Química Pura y Aplicada, de los resultados de los trabajos de la Cátedra de Ciencia y Sociedad de la Fundación Rafael del Pino, materializados en la publicación del libro «España a ciencia cierta.

Bridging the Gaps: A Portal for Curious Minds"Nano Comes to Life": DNA NanoTech, Medicine and the Future of Biology with Professor Sonia ConteraNanotechnology allows scientists to better understand, interact with, and manipulate biology by creating and manufacturing artificial structures and even machines at the nanoscale out of DNA, proteins, and other biological molecules. From nanoscale machines that can target individual cancer cells and deliver drugs more effectively to nanoantibiotics that can fight resistant bacteria, to the engineering of tissues and organs for research, drug discovery, and transplantation, nanotechnology is revolutionizing medicine in ways that will have profound effects on our health and longevity.
In this episode of Bridging the Gaps I speak with Professor Sonia Contera and we discuss fascinating research that...2021-08-2246 min

Instant GeniusCould 'counterfactuals' solve the biggest problems in physics?Most laws of physics tell us what must happen. Throw a ball in the air and it will come back down. But physicist Chiara Marletto, a Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, says that laws like this only tell us part of the story.She believes that the rest lies in 'counterfactuals': things that could be.In her new book, The Science of Can and Can’t (£20, Allen Lane), she explains how these counterfactual properties could solve many of science’s biggest outstanding problems.Let us know what you think of the episod...2021-05-1729 min

Instant GeniusSonia Contera: How will nanotechnology revolutionise medicine?This week we talk to one of the world’s leading pioneers in the field of nanotechnology, Sonia Contera.Nanotechnology is the application of science at a truly nano scale. To put that in perspective, if a nanometre were the size of a cup of tea, a meter would cover the diameter of the whole Earth.Being able to control the world at such an intricate level has the potential to revolutionise medicine - enabling us to target cancer cells, deliver drugs and fight antibiotic resistance – but how do we create technology to that size?2020-05-1138 min
