Presenter Dr Shane is joined by Drs Allie and Linden for the latest science news. Dr Darren Haywood, postdoctoral research fellow in the Faculty of Health at the University of Technology Sydney investigates changes in concentration, memory, thinking speed and decision-making in people with a previous diagnosis of cancer. How can we support people after cancer? Dr Wenyi Li, researcher in the Department of Biochemistry and Chemistry at La Trobe University chats all things antimicrobial pepties and looks at whether they could be an alternative to conventional antibiotics.

Dr Shane is joined by EAGG regulars Chris KP and Suzi, and 20 special guests as part of the ‘20 PHD Students in 20 minutes’ program.

A wide range of expertise and insight covered in this special, including but not limited to; anti-hypertension medication, eating disorders in a prison environment, diabetes, fatty liver disease, forensic anthropology, Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), stem cell research, oral health in boarding school, sleeping gene cells and much, much more!

Dr. Jen and Dr. Shane host a celebration for the Day of Immunology with three distinguished guests. First, Lauren Howson from WEHI's Immunology Division delves into the roles of "unconventional" immune cells in human disease, aiming to guide new therapeutic strategies, particularly for inherited primary immunodeficiency (PID). Then, Dr. Alexander Davenport, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at WEHI, focuses on enhancing T cell killing of tumour cells, targeting novel protein targets for pediatric brain cancer immunotherapies, notably Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG). Lastly, writer and poet Alicia Sometimes explores dark energy and gravitational waves through art installations and collaborations with scientists, culminating in her book "Stellar Atmospheres" which combines physics, science communication, and personal experiences like her battle with breast cancer.

Organic farming is better for the planet, right? This week Dr Shane, Dr Ray and Dr Scarlett (with Dr Gracie beaming in from the USA) learn that the answer is mostly yes, but that it’s more complicated than first thought. Thankfully, calculating the behaviour of three or more celestial bodies is still as complicated as we always knew, and the human brain remains one of the great mysteries (even if half of it is removed).

Guests this week include Dr Jiadong Mao and Dr Saritha Kodikara from Melbourne Integrative Genomics - School of Mathematics and Statistics (University of Melbourne) who share their research on big health data and the importance of open source computing in their field, while PhD student Pratyush Kollepara (La Tobe University) talks about modelling infectious diseases with math and the ethics of determining the most effective solution to disease control.

Dr Shane is joined in the studio by Dr Jen and Dr Euan, sharing their science news of the week. This week’s guests are Renee Grace Key, a PhD student from Swinburne University, talking about dark matter and if it really is Stephen Hawking’s prediction of a tiny black hole; Jack Atkin-Smith, a veterinary surgeon at Swan Hill Vet Clinic talks about blood transfusions for dogs; and Jacinta Agius, a PhD candidate from La Trobe University, discusses research on anti-viral strategies against Haliotid herpesvirus in Australian abalone.

Presenter Dr Shane is joined by Drs Linden and Hayley for the latest science news. Dr Francesco Ricci from the Department of Microbiology at Monash University discusses how scientists work to understand how life adapts to extreme environments and how life that thrives in these environments can help save the Great Barrier Reef. Professor Nicole Bell, President of The Australian Institute of Physics and researcher at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics at The University of Melbourne shows us how research into neutrinos and dark matter helps us understand our universe, and that Australia is heavily involved in this work.

Dr Shane is joined in the studio by Dr Laura and Dr Ray, who share news on beef-flavoured rice grown in the lab and shocking findings by European researchers that microplastics penetrate so deeply into lake sediment that they enter layers laid down before plastics were even invented.

Dr Shane interviews three guests:

Dr Mehrnaz Shoushtarian from the Bionics Institute shares her research leveraging light-based brain imaging and machine learning to detect tinnitus-related brain changes. This could help to measure effects of new treatments for tinnitus and better identify different types of tinnitus to tailor the treatment.

Dr Jayden Newstead from University of Melbourne's School of Physics shares his research, which aims to develop new techniques to detect less frequently occurring types of dark matter.

A/Prof Nadia Zatsepin is an ARC Future Fellow from La Trobe University, and her research uses X-rays to image molecules in real time, creating "molecular movies" to better understand the mechanics of certain proteins.
