For the final episode of this season, we spoke to Professor Anna Middleton. Anna is Head of Society and Ethics Research at the Sanger Institute and has spent her career investigating the ways in which genomics research impacts society. It was amazing to hear about the groundbreaking research that Anna has done, from her PhD research into attitudes of the deaf community to genetic testing to embedding the ethics research group into the Wellcome Genome Campus, Anna has led the way and is now dedicating her career to figuring out the best way to socialise disconnected public audiences with genomics. If you are looking to find out more, Anna has recommended the following TED talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown_the_power_of_vulnerability?language=en Music: 'Lion' by Sapajou Free download: bit.ly/3q6w8mW --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/decoding-life-pod/message…
This week we had the opportunity to speak with Em Dixon. Em loved science growing up, but discovered that it was seeing the benefits of communicating the research that got her really excited. We had a lovely conversation covering the paths into science communication, why it is so important, and how it can be used to improve diversity and inclusion in STEM. If you want to learn about the ways in which you can use sci comms to both engage the public and improve your ability to communicate your research, this is the episode for you!

Lindsey Crosswell is Head of External Relations at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), an organisation that sits on the Wellcome Genome Campus alongside The Wellcome Sanger Institute and many others. Lindsey has had an extensive career spanning many industries, this vast experience is something she has brought to her current role. It was really interesting to talk about such a different aspect of working in science. Lindsey also reflected on how things have changed for women in the workplace over the years. We tend to focus on the present when pushing for equality and how much there still is to do, but it was lovely to think about how far we have come! If you’re interested in learning more about EMBL-EBI, how they adapted to the pandemic, and their work on public engagement and EDI then this is the episode for you!

Dr. Sarah Teichmann is a group leader at the Wellcome Sanger Institute in cellular genetics, and co-founded the Human Cell Atlas. We start with the science of protein structure and move into single cell genomics and the human cell atlas. We discuss the global perspective that has motivated her research from her PhD to now. We also dive into what it’s like to go from mentee to mentor and championing those that come after you. It was a really enjoyable conversation, in which we learned a huge amount of biology as well as what it takes to be an impactful and inspirational female leader. Resources!

Dr Alena Pance has had an incredible career traversing neuroscience, cancer, and tropical parasite research. She has always had a focus on transcriptional regulation and it was incredible hearing about how she adapted to these very different fields. Alena was very honest in this interview about her two very different experiences of having children in research. It was very interesting to hear how these fed into policy changes that women on the Wellcome Genome Campus were driving and, although there is still work to be done, how much better these women made it for the parents coming after them.

Harriet started her career in software development peering over the shoulder of her flatmate. This seems to be a beginning that resonates with many women in coding. Harriet is passionate that it shouldn't fall to luck for girls to find out about coding, like it did for her. In this episode we explore life as a software developer while studying part time, and the different projects she champions to try and improve accessibility and visibility of coding for young girls.
