The Lifeline project is a podcast exploring the science and process behind the musical, Lifeline, a show about antibiotics, Alexander Fleming, and the biggest current global health crisis you might never have heard of.

The first episode is a potted history of the show and it's principal cast members - not the actors, the microbes that help make their bodies function. 

Featuring:

Maren Hunsberger - a scientist, science communicator, producer and actor who has recently created a show, ‘Fascinating Fails’ for PBS Terra that you can find on their YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@pbsterra . You can also catch up with Maren on social media @marenhunsberger (or on TikTok @marenmicrobe)

Jake M Robinson - a scientist, podcaster and author who studies ecosystem restoration and microbial ecology. His first book, ‘Invisible Friends’ is available now and his second book ‘Treewilding’ is on the way. You can get in touch with him via his website https://www.jakemrobinson.com/ or on social media @_jake_robinson

 

The podcast is produced, written and hosted by Graham Richardson https://www.gnrichardson.co.uk/ @wildgreyme

Original music is provided by Robin Hiley, the composer and lyricist for Lifeline
