We’re finishing the year with 5 special themed podcasts sharing some of the narrated blogs we’ve published throughout the year, introduced by Adam Smith.

This week we’ll be covering some amazing science and care and psychosocial research, exploring public engagement and with the rise of omicron we’ll go back to earlier in the year to learn some lessons from previous lockdowns and think about wellbeing and resilience.

Today, we’ve selected four blogs which share some of the amazing knowledge held in the heads of our bloggers who are based in the lab, exploring some science and biology.

Dr Christina Toomey, Researcher from University College London narrates her blog titled "How does the Brain Bank Work".

Dr Sam Moxon, Research Associate at The University of Manchester narrates his blog titled "Tissue Stiffness an Overlooked Aspect of Dementia".

Dr Yvonne Couch, Associate Professor and ARUK Fellow at University of Oxford, invites you to join her in a blog titled "The Hunt for Tiny Messengers"

Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali, Research Associate at University of Glasgow discussed her research in this blog "Why does Brain Injury Increase the Risk of Dementia"
