Unheard voices: young people in care's experiences of speaking to doctors
Researcher Lauren Herlitz and theatre maker James Baldwin talked to 14 young people in care or who are care leavers about their experiences of seeing doctors. The frank conversation covers trust in doctors, opening-up about mental health, the effects of trauma, and being judged by healthcare professionals. Lauren and James invited two experts in child health, Dr. Claire Agathou and Prof. Monica Lakhanpaul, to respond to young people's views. They talk about young people’s difficulties in accessing healthcare and why some doctors find it hard to start conversations about mental health or trauma. The conversations were recorded in person with young people, aged 13-22 years, in Nov 2022 and Apr 2023, and online with health experts in Sept 2023. This podcast was funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) through the Children and Families Policy Research Unit. The views expressed are not necessarily those of the NIHR or the Department of Health and Social Care.

Episode 8: Who cares for me? Finding solutions to dementia care
The care problem. It’s a problem address by every Prime Minister yet we’re still here with an ageing population and more and more people needing care with not enough carers to care for them. So, what are we doing about it? In this episode we talk to Bea about the care crisis in the UK, why she’s working on diagnosing rare forms of dementia and how there’s a certain lack of community in the UK, the "S" word and how we’re going to solve all this. It’s a meaty episode and we hope you enjoy It as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Lunch Hour Lectures - Autumn 2009 - Episode 9: Why the courts are as important as hospitals to the nation's health Professor Genn will focus on the critical ways in which courts support society and the economy and on how they have directly improved standards of medicine practice and healthcare. She will also discuss new evidence about the link between access to justice and health and consider whether much of what turns up in doctors’ surgeries (including requests for anti-depressants) are in fact the results of an inability to access the courts.

The ARCHERY study – Can AI transform the way we plan radiotherapy treatment globally?
In this first episode, we talk to Dr Ajay Aggarwal about an exciting new study to evaluate if artificial intelligence (AI) can transform the way we plan radiotherapy in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). The study is called the ARCHERY (short for “Artificial Intelligence based radiotherapy treatment planning for Cervical, Head and Neck and Prostate cancer”). Ajay explains how this study could improve global access to radiotherapy by automatising parts of radiotherapy treatment planning using AI. He also highlights the importance of evaluating the implementation and cost-effectiveness of this AI approach, as well as its plan to build capacity in LMIC.
