We’re reading less. And it’s making us stupid – podcast
By Presented and produced by Madeleine Finlay, with Ian Sample; sound design by Joel Cox; executive producer Ellie BuryBooks have never been trendier, but studies show that as more and more things compete for our frazzled attention spans, we’re reading less and less. This is a problem because reading has a wealth of cognitive benefits that we’re in danger of missing out on.

Can a world-first gene therapy reverse ageing? – podcast
By Presented by Madeleine Finlay, with Ian Sample, produced by Ellie Sans, sound design by Joel Cox, the executive producer was Ellie BuryThe first person has been treated with a highly anticipated new gene therapy that aims to turn back the clock on ageing cells. The trial is aimed at retinal cells, with the hope that encouraging them to behave as if they were young again could improve sight in the affected patients. If it proves to be safe, it could open the door to a whole raft of therapies based on the emerging field of cellular rejuvenation. To understand more about this cutting edge research, Madeleine Finlay hears from science editor Ian Sample and from John Knoepfler, professor of cell biology and human anatomy at the university of California, Davis.
