On this episode of the See One Do One Podcast, we are speaking about not necessarily Orthopaedics!

In this episode, we speak to the author of Dark Matter: The New Science of the Microbiome, James Kinross.

The microbiome - our inner ecosystem of viruses, bacteria and other microbes - is critically important to our health and well-being. It is given to us by our mothers at birth, adapts with us as we age, influences our moods, determines how fast we run and even who we choose as a partner. Yet it is only now, as we are beginning to discover the microbiome's enormous potential, that we are realising it is in grave danger, being irrevocably destroyed through the globalisation of our diets, the war on bugs and the industrialised world.

Join Kash and Pete as they pick James' brain on the microbiome and how everyday actions are affecting our health in ways we never would think!

Join us for this special LIVE edition of the Orthohub STORIES podcast, where we dive deep into the life and legacy of a titan in British Orthopaedics, Professor John Keating. 

Recorded at the annual BOTA 2023 Congress our hosts Kash Akhtar and Peter Bates, unravel the captivating four-decade-long journey of John Keating, international man of mystery...
