In this episode, Ina Sonnen, a researcher at the Hubrecht Institute in the Netherlands, is interviewed by Postdocoral researcher JF Darrigrand. Ina explains which are the big questions studied in her lab, notably how cells can communicate not only via the nature of signals they exchange but also through the dynamics of these signlas. She shares how advances in microscopy, microfluidics and cell culture are helping researchers to make more and more discoveries. Having recently founded her lab, she tells us more about what she found was either challenging or rewarding in her new role. Lastly, she insists on why she thinks being a scientist is a good job when you want to start a family.

Episode 140- Dr Emma Rawlins "I'll look at stem cell in any systems"
In today’s episode, Dr Emma Rawlins, a senior group leader at the Gurdon Institute in University of Cambridge. She is interviewed by PhD student Elena Drudi. Emma talks about her research on stem cells in mammalian lungs using both mouse and human organoid models. She discusses the pros and cons of the two models. She describes her research interest in understanding normal embryonic lung development, with the aim to further repurpose these cues for lung repair/regeneration in adults. She emphasises how functional human genetics on a population level, in combination with human organoids models, can further help dissecting diseases susceptibility and regeneration. She also shares her journey from studying drosophila to human lung biology, and how going aboard no longer seems to be a necessity to continue one's career.
