- S2 Ep6: S2 #6 The Public Good: Maximising Outcomes“Major advances, even in a crisis, are made in the years and decades before the crisis (...) these are not miracles that happen by chance.” - Jeremy Farrar We have all felt the impact of the pandemic in 2020 and 2021 - but we have not felt it equally. In this episode, the last of this series, host Bruno Giussani dives into the ecosystems around scientific innovation, looking at the way different forms of collaboration, legal frameworks, and the respective roles of public institutions, private companies and philanthropy in enabling (or not) technological advances. Joining Bruno are the director of the Wellcome Trust, Jeremy Farrar, reflecting on the role of philanthropic organisations as well as the necessity of long-term investment in science, discovery and education; Soumya Swaminathan, chief scientist at the WHO, talking about the role the WHO plays on the international stage and the struggles for equity in treatment - and the WHO’s first mRNA technology transfer hub in Africa; Els Torreele, biomedical scientist and researcher in equitable public health policy, diving deep into the effects of patent-driven and commercially-funded medical research; and Ben Perry, medicinal chemist involved in drug discovery, commenting on the complexities of molecule control. Guests: Els Torreele, Ben Perry, Jeremy Farrar, Soumya Swaminathan Host: Bruno Giussani Production CERN, Geneva: Claudia Marcelloni, Lila Mabiala, Sofia Hurst Whistledown Productions, London: Will Yates and Sandra Kanthal Copyright: CERN, 202226/10/202225:40
- S2 Ep5: S2 #5 A Global Perspective: The Power of Collaboration“There’s no such thing as too many scientists” - Ben Perry Join host Bruno Giussani as he delves into the rationale and practice of large scale scientific collaborations. In this episode Ben Perry, medicinal chemist with DNDI (Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative) talks about the nature and successes of open science. Rolf Apweiler, co-director of the European Bioinformatics Institute that collects, analyses and distributes data to the worldwide scientific community, explains the challenges researchers face in accessing the data they need and the way EBI seeks to streamline the process. The Wellcome Trust’s director Jeremy Farrar discusses the interconnectedness of the world and how frameworks for international collaboration are essential for the future especially in areas where the scientific and the political overlap. And Charlotte Warakaulle, director for International Relations at CERN, describes the “CERN model” and elaborates on its scientific and technological contributions to health. Guests: Ben Perry, Rolf Apweiler, Jeremy Farrar, Charlotte Warakaulle Host: Bruno Giussani Production CERN, Geneva: Claudia Marcelloni, Lila Mabiala, Sofia Hurst Whistledown Productions, London: Will Yates and Sandra Kanthal Copyright: CERN, 202226/10/202222:14
- S2 Ep4: S2 #4 Healthtech & Ethics: Getting it Right“We are so taken in by technology that we forget that technology is a tool that should be used with an outcome in mind.” - Soumya Swaminathan In this episode, host Bruno Giussani and his guests wade through the quagmire of healthtech ethics and fairness, exploring topics such as how the notions of right and wrong are changed by technology, data ownership and privacy, mind-manipulation technologies and the marvels of machine-learning systems which often are black boxes that not even the specialists understand. In conversation with Bruno are Soumya Swaminathan, chief scientist of the WHO; George Church, the founding father of genomics; Pushmeet Kohli from DeepMind; technoethicist and entrepreneur Juan Enriquez; neuroscientist Olaf Blanke of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology; and Nobel laureate Jennifer Doudna. Guests: Soumya Swaminathan, George Church, Pushmeet Kohli, Juan Enriquez, Olaf Blanke, Jennifer Doudna Host: Bruno Giussani Production CERN, Geneva: Claudia Marcelloni, Lila Mabiala, Sofia Hurst Whistledown Productions, London: Will Yates and Sandra Kanthal Copyright: CERN, 202226/10/202229:50
- S2 Ep3: S2 #3 Genomics: Cracking and Editing the Code“We finally have a way of making an organism resistant to all viruses.” - George Church Gene editing, complete virus resistance, longer healthspans, reversing ageing - these are no longer concepts consigned to the pages of science fiction, but real research that host Bruno Giussani explores in this episode. Jennifer Doudna, who shared the 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for her foundational work on the gene-editing technology CRISPR, talks about the first 10 years of CRISPR and the possibilities created by its combination with artificial intelligence. George Church, considered the founding father of genomics, shares some of his latest research that could lead to making us resistant to all pathogenic viruses and expand our healthspan. Abasi Ene-Obong, CEO of startup 54Gene in Nigeria, describes his work to make sure African genetic data become better represented in the field.

- S2 Ep2: S2 #2 The Biological Revolution: Tools & Tells“I think the way we do medicine these days is broken.” - Michael Snyder In this second episode, join host Bruno Giussani as he examines the specific tools powering the biological revolution. He is joined by Michael Snyder, geneticist and founder of the Snyder Lab at Stanford University, to talk about wearable technologies; by Pushmeet Kohli, AI for Science Lead at Deepmind (a subsidiary of Alphabet) to understand AlphaFold, the machine learning system capable of predicting the structure of nearly all proteins known to science, and its impacts; and Ben Perry, medicinal chemist at the Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative (DNDI) to talk about AlphaFold’s benefits for drug development.

À propos de The CERN Sparks! Podcast
Sparks! is an annual thematic event exploring future technology and how it will affect society. The CERN Sparks! Podcast brings together the brightest minds in the chosen field and explores the visions and challenges of the future.
The podcast aims to broach the annual theme with a wider public and allow science lovers to have an insight into future trends from multiple, multidisciplinary angles.
The second season of the CERN Sparks! podcast, hosted by Bruno Giussani: 6 episodes focused on discussing some of the present of health tech and science and taking a deep look at the many exciting, often risky and generally thrilling possibilities of future technologies for health. With Nobel Laureate Jennifer Doudna; the founding father of genomics, George Church; the WHO’s chief scientist, Soumya Swaminathan; and many other guests.
In the first series about Artificial intelligence, hear the sparks fly as Mark Rayner and Abha Eli Phoboo collide pairs of the leading coders, neuroscientists, entrepreneurs, philosophers, psychologists and physicists who are shaping the future.
CERN - the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is the largest particle physics laboratory in the world. Established in 1954, it is derived from the French acronym Conseil européen pour la recherche nucléaire. We probe the fundamental structure of the particles that make up everything around us.
