Episode 1: What Happens When Science Meets Story?

In this first episode, materials scientist and storyteller Dr Anna Ploszajski speaks to two experts who have spent their illustrious careers at the intersection of science and storytelling.

- Baroness Alex Freeman made documentaries mostly for the BBC, and then went to Cambridge where she studied evidence communication, where she got interested in the downsides of using storytelling in science

- Professor Marcus Munafò is a university Professor in Psychology in health behaviours, and Associate Pro-Vice Chancellor for Research Culture at the University of Bristol. 

This podcast is made in partnership with the UK Reproducibility Network, Sonic Screen Lab at University of the Arts London and StoryArcs at Bath Spa University. StoryArcs is an Arts and Humanities Research Council funded programme.
