Science Will Win

Since antibiotics were first discovered, bacteria have been evolving to outsmart them. But today, the latest science is rising up to meet the challenge. This season of Science Will Win explores how artificial intelligence (AI) can help the scientific community overcome one of the greatest challenges facing humanity: antimicrobial resistance. You'll hear from researchers, doctors, patients, patient advocates, computer scientists, and AI experts. All of them are on the cutting edge of the fight against antimicrobial resistance.

Host Adam Rutherford returns to explore breakthroughs in oncology, the study and treatment of cancer, and more specifically breast cancer. We hear from the scientists tasked with developing new treatments, oncologists who lead clinical trials and treat patients, and the patients and patient advocates themselves. It’s a groundbreaking time for cancer research, with as many promising possibilities as there are challenges to overcome.

Gene therapy is a revolutionary field of science that has the potential to transform lives. It presents this big question; What if we could treat a disease at its root cause, rather than just the symptoms? On the first season of Science Will Win, we look at gene therapy from every angle, speaking to the Pfizer scientists and experts on the forefront of medical research, as well as the patients and families who are holding new hope in the life-changing potential of gene therapy. Listeners hear from a diverse line-up of leading experts on the future-shaping science, challenging policy environment and the personal stories which remain our guiding-light in the search for breakthrough therapies of tomorrow.
