In this episode, I speak to Professor Iqbal Singh OBE about the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on BAME communities, as well as on men and older adults. We explore the healthcare measures that we can take to reduce this discrepancy, as highlighted in his recent article. Furthermore, we discuss his extensive work on advancing the care of older patients and the challenges that come with an ageing population.
I speak to Mark Mercala, an optimistic and sporty dentist, about his personal experience of treatment following a diagnosis of neck cancer. We also explore the role of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in causing his illness, and the importance of symptom communication following intensive treatment.
In this episode, I speak to Sir Walter Bodmer, a renowned geneticist and researcher, about the change that has occurred within the world of research over the past 60 years. We also discuss key skills for new researchers, as well as his most current findings.
