HDBI Podcast: ‘Made the same way’
Connecting our research to young people
About our podcast
Everyone is different, but we all start as a fertilised egg - we're made the same way.
HDBI scientists are trying to understand more about how the human body is formed from fertilisation to birth. Eventually, this understanding will enable better treatments for many conditions such as heart defects, spina bifida, childhood cancers and infertility. However, human developmental biology is a difficult type of research to talk about - it involves working with human embryos and fetal tissues and the health implications aren’t exactly known yet.
In ‘Made the same way’, young artists collaborate with scientists, embracing challenging conversations about this research. In each episode, an artist creates an original song or poem which echos their feelings and stimulates curiosity about research in human developmental biology.
This podcast was produced in collaboration with Reform Radio.
