Cambridge scientists talk about their work on community radio station Cambridge 105. In these short interviews, they tell how maths, physics, chemistry and biology are put to use in ways they never told us about at school. Our scientists worked in health, business, university research and places we had never thought of. Do share to drive STEM education and careers. Interviews by Roger Frost, Chris Creese and the science show radio team.

scientist 65: the cytologist – Melina Schuh oocytes and reproduction (2014)
The topic is how we make the eggs that make our babies or in other words: meiosis in mammalian oocytes. Molecular biology research happens at the Medical Research Council lab of Molecular Biology in Cambridge. The LMB houses 50 research groups and over 400 scientists and one of the groups is led by scientist Dr Melina Schuh. Roger Frost was intrigued to know why we need to know more about making babies, so he asked Melina.
