6.5 "The Greedy Chinese"
Stereotypes about people and groups of people influence how we perceive and treat them. These negative stereotypes exist partially because of the media we consume. In this episode, we want to go beyond these stereotypes and explore the stories and experiences of Chinese women who migrate and live in Australia.

6.3 Is the Vegan Revolution a Capitalist Revolution?
What’s behind all these new products? Is veganism driving capitalism, or is capitalism driving veganism? In this episode we explore these issues and ask the question, can capitalism drive social change?
Here’s a link to write a letter to your favourite junk food merchant :). If you take some extra time to personalise the letter to the company or staff it will have more impact.

#37 Understanding the History of Sexuality, Health, and Disease with Dr Alison Moore

#35 Insider perspectives and fake news with Dr Tanya Notley
#34 Seeing the world through Bioinspired cameras with Dr Greg Cohen

#32 Scientific Fortune in Prostate Cancer Research with Dr Kieran Scott
Dr Kieran Scott works at the Ingham Institute developing a cancer drug that targets inflammation as a means of treating prostate cancer. Kieran's currently at the clinical trial stage, testing his compound 'C2' on 12 participants. We talked to Kieran about the process of drug development for Prostate cancer, the luck involved in scientific research, as well as the often ill-considered aspects of conducting research.
Note: During the discussion of the Shine Dalgarna sequence in this conversation, Dr Scott mistakenly referred to ribosomes binding to DNA when he intended to say RNA. To clarify the error, the mechanism by which the Shine Dalgarno sequence serves to direct protein translation in bacteria is that the sequence, encoded in DNA prior to the translation start site of a gene is transcribed into mRNA. The ribosome recognises this site and so can initiate translation of the mRNA.
#31 Programming Solutions with James Ferguson

#29 Running an F1 Team with Blaze Racing
