Episode #5
Autoimmune diseases affect one in eight people, yet many are still treated by suppressing the entire immune system. But what if all of them shared a common root cause – a small number of rogue immune cells that...
Episode #4
Pancreatic cancer can surround itself with dense scar tissue, creating a kind of fortress that makes tumours incredibly difficult to treat. So, how do we find a way through? In this episode, Garvan researcher Dr Brooke...
Episode #3
Our immune system is like a well-trained security network, constantly scanning the body for threats. So, how is it that some harmful cells manage to slip by unnoticed? In this episode, we speak to computational...
Episode #2
What if the missing piece in diagnosing, and even treating, a rare disease was hiding in plain sight? For one such condition, mevalonate kinase deficiency, which affects at least one in a million people globally, that...
Episode #1
Immunotherapy has revolutionised the treatment of many blood cancers, harnessing the immune system so our bodies can fight back. But for solid tumours, like pancreatic cancer with a survival rate of just 13%, that...
Arthritis affects millions of people, but the underlying causes are still not fully understood. What makes the immune system that normally protects us suddenly attack our joints? And why do arthritis flares seem to...
For decades, the fight against cancer has focused on killing the tumour cell. We treated cancer like an isolated entity that needed to be destroyed – but what if we’ve been looking at the wrong target? In...
Therapies and drugs have evolved enormously in the last 30 years. For example, in cancer, where previously our options were limited to surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, we’re now hearing terms like cancer...
Pancreatic cancer is one of the toughest cancers to treat – it’s aggressive, often diagnosed late, and doesn’t respond well to standard therapies. In this episode, we meet Professor Marina Pajic who is...
Garvan is one of Australia's largest independent medical research institutes with a single focus: to make discoveries that will improve health for all. In this episode, you’ll hear from Executive Director...

The human body has an incredible capacity to heal itself – whether it’s a paper cut, a broken bone, or your lungs recovering after a chest infection. But not all types of healing are good for us. Cancers seem to have...
Episode #3
More than 33,000 people in Australia today are affected by multiple sclerosis, a disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord, for which there is no cure. In this episode, you’ll meet Dr Seyhan Yazar and Professor Tri...
Episode #2
Scientific advances have led us to diagnosing, treating and preventing cancer much better than ever before. Still, 10 million people die of cancer every year and what we need now are transformative ideas. In this...
Our gastrointestinal system contains more than 70% of the body’s immune cells and can house more microbial cells than there are human cells in our entire body. Unravelling all that complexity is more important than...
Episode #10
The relief of a successful cancer treatment is all too often marred by a distressing, lingering uncertainty of whether a cancer will return. Cancer cells can tuck away and lie dormant for years before waking up to...
Episode #9
Genomics is fundamentally changing the way we think about health and disease and driving forward personalised treatment options that would have been pure science fiction just a few years ago. Still, some parts of our...
Episode #8
Every day, we accumulate trillions of mutations in our body’s genetic material. How does our body stay the course amidst this constant genetic change and what's the link between our genes and our well-being? In this...
