Dr Karan has an up-front discussion with the man who informed the nation about the most predictive, yet strange, symptom of Covid-19 in 2020; the loss of smell and taste... Epidemiologist Tim Spector created a reporting tool that is arguably the world’s largest ever citizen science experiment; the Covid Symptom Study app. First and foremost however, he's an epidemiologist. Dr Karan talks with Tim about how we can avoid future pandemics, how to prepare for cancer surgery and how to boost your gut microbiome.   Tim is a Professor of Genetic Epidemiology at King's College London, he’s the director of the Twins UK study, and the co-founder at ZOE (which proved to be an invaluable tool to combat Covid-19). His knowledge and passion for epidemiology have benefited many people around the world – and could benefit YOU today!  If you have a health-related question and want to get in touch, just head to TheReferralPod.com.
