These podcasts are linked to my blog Notes from a small scientist. In this episode, I provide a plain language summary of a paper we recently published, which explores how the differences in the genomes of the bacteria used to make the BCG vaccine, used for over 100 years to prevent tuberculosis, can change how effective it is at preventing disease.

In this episode, I provide a plain language summary of a paper we recently published, which explores the effects of being hospitalised with COVID-19 on what types of bacterial infections you might catch, and whether you are more likely to catch a drug resistant (and harder to treat) version!

These podcasts are linked to my blog Notes from a small scientist. In this episode, to celebrate World TB Day on the 24th March, I discuss the disease tuberculosis and the bacteria that causes it, Mycobacteria tuberculosis. I explain why TB is so hard to treat, why it's such a pain to work with and why we still haven't got rid of it yet! But don't worry, there's always hope for the future in the shape of research!

These podcasts are linked to my blog Notes from a small scientist. I had a really rubbish PhD experience and I know from talking to other students and looking online that a lot of other people did too. So I took to Twitter and asked my PhD friends what they wish they'd known before and during their PhDs. In this podcast and the linked blog article, I discuss these points from choosing your PhD project in the first place, setting out on your PhD journey and who to turn to if things go wrong. I hope you find this useful. Thank you to everyone who contributed, you are all PhD heroes!
