For this final episode of Series 1, we’re looking at how UCL research is helping to level out various playing fields. We’ll hear how legal experts are helping people to get the support they are entitled to, share thoughts with London’s commuters on how advertising can be more representative. And, for our first story, we’re taking a look at the creation of new technologies which make our world more accessible. Join UCL alumna, Suzie McCarthy, as she explores these topics with UCL experts: - Dr Giulia Barbareschi - www.ucl.ac.uk/made-at-ucl/storie…sability-landscape - Prof Jessica Ringrose - www.ucl.ac.uk/made-at-ucl/storie…ion-uk-advertising - Rachel Knowles & the UCL Integrated Legal Advice Clinic (UCL iLAC) team www.ucl.ac.uk/made-at-ucl/storie…munities-legal-aid '#MadeAtUCL Disruptive Discoveries' talks to UCL researchers answering life's big questions; from green infrastructure to artificial intelligence, space exploration to treating cancer. www.ucl.ac.uk/made-at-ucl

Our campaign, ‘Disruptive thinking since 1826’ and the hashtag #MadeAtUCL highlighted our unique multidisciplinary approach to problem-solving through game-changing research, and united staff, students, and alumni in sharing the real-life impact of our work in ways that wider audiences could relate to. The campaign was the first of its kind that involved the whole community – from academics and communications professionals to members of the public who voted for their favourite UCL research stories. By working together, staff in faculties and the central marketing team created a digital hub for 100 breakthrough stories, which were transformed into animations; social media advertising; hoardings at the new UCL East campus; podcasts; a festival and public lecture series. Combining resources and clever use of content led to engagement with over 5m people, far exceeding our original objectives and demonstrating excellence in the education sector. https://bit.ly/UCL-disruptive

This episode we reflect on the need to listen to a whole range of different perspectives. We follow the flight of a senior Nazi and ask 'why do people do terrible things?'. We tour London's ever-changing Queer scene, imagining the night-life of the future. And we venture to South America, where we seek the path to paradise with the Guarani and Ashaninka peoples, who have important environmental wisdom that we can't afford to lose. Join Suzie as she explores various perspectives with: • Prof Philippe Sands (UCL Laws) • Prof Ben Campin (Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL Urban Laboratory) and Lo Marshall (UCL Geography) • Prof Jerome Lewis (UCL Anthropology) For the transcript and more info visit https://www.ucl.ac.uk/made-at-ucl/podcasts

On Episode 2 we talk about things that transfer from one place to another. Discover how traces of DNA can transfer onto things you’ve never touched, leading to wrongful convictions.
