This podcast focuses on these topics and related issues, and involves discussion between Brian Diffey (Emeritus Professor of Photobiology at Newcastle University), Ike Iheanacho and David Phizackerley (Editor and Deputy Editor, DTB, respectively).

Accompanying this is an editorial that questions recent public health guidance on sunscreens from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence.
