The Sound of Microbes
Humans have long had a love-hate relationship with microbes – fighting the ones that cause disease, while nurturing the ones that make our food taste delicious. But recent research suggests that the picture isn’t so black and white – the mixtures of microbes living on and in us are vital to our wellbeing in complex and surprising ways. In this podcast your host Louise Whiteley takes you to visit holistic health coach Adina Beer, chef David Zilber, philosopher Joana Formosinho, scientist Mani Arumugam and artist duo Baum & Leahy, asking them: how we can listen to what microbes have to tell us about our health and food systems, about cultivating care across species and societies? The podcast series is produced for Medical Museion, supported by a Velux Foundation Core Group award for ”Microbes on the Mind” and the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR) at the University of Copenhagen. Produced by Marie Chimwemwe Degnbol and Cecilie Glerup Music by Andreas Markus Appearing in the podcast: Louise Whiteley, Adina Bier, David Zilber, Joana Formosinho, Mani Amurugam, Rose Leahy and Amanda Baum.
