There ' s increasing recognition of the importance of involving patients and the public in decision making about health services and a growing body of relevant research.

Probing beyond our Solar System, sea pollinators, and a book on the future of nutrition
On this week’s show: Plans to push a modern space probe beyond the edge of the Solar System, crustaceans that pollinate seaweed, and the latest in our series of author interviews on food, science, and nutrition
After visiting the outer planets in the 1980s, the twin Voyager spacecraft have sent back tantalizing clues about the edge of our Solar System and what lies beyond. Though they may have reached the edge of the Solar System or even passed it, the craft lack the instruments to tell us much about the interstellar medium—the space between the stars. Intern Khafia Choudhary talks with Contributing Correspondent Rich...

In March 2021, the Cochrane Neuro-Oncology Group published a series of eight new complex systematic reviews on priority topics for the brain tumour community. These were selected from the most important unanswered questions identified by people in this area using James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership methods, which bring together patients and the public with practitioners. One of the reviews was a network meta-analysis of treatments for glioblastoma in the elderly and we asked lead author, Catherine Hanna from the University of Glasgow in the UK, to tell us about the condition and the review.

Tackling racism with Annabel Sowemimo, Shani Scott and Joan Saddler OBE
The signs and symptoms of racism have long permeated our society, and are embedded in our clinical practice and medical education.

COVID-19 has exposed the inequalities in our healthcare systems, as the virus has had a disproportionate impact on some ethnic minority communities.
