Jess is a doctor, Aaron is a patient, Julian is in a position of power. Together, they are the three friends whose story is at the heart of the show.
Anyone from any background can become an antimicrobial steward, someone who spreads the word about AMR and encourages people to use antimicrobials efficiently. When Aaron gets sick, all three of the friends explore stewardship and what that means to their professional and personal bonds.
In the real world we too can be stewards in our own unique ways and this episode looks at how some people are doing that through music, storytelling and tuk-tuks…

AMR is a problem with a plethora of solutions...and plenty of barriers to reach them.
In this episode we look at the role innovation can play – innovating new antibiotics, relatively unexplored treatments and preventing infection in the first place. So how expensive is it to make a new antibiotic? Are viruses actually our friends? And what does it have to do with the whales?

The Lifeline project is a podcast exploring the science and process behind the musical, Lifeline, a show about antibiotics, Alexander Fleming, and the biggest current global health crisis you might never have heard of.
The first episode is a potted history of the show and it's principal cast members - not the actors, the microbes that help make their bodies function. From the pathogens that make us sick to our microbiomes which help us digest food and fight disease, we look at the different tiny creatures that we meet in lives and ask, how do they survive, are they all ‘good’ or ‘bad’ and how on earth did we represent them on a stage?
Our guests this week are Maren Hunsberger and Jake M. Robinson.
