Culture shock!

It’s a culture-packed episode of Science Queeries – bacterial cultures that is. Dr Cat chats to microbiologist Maddie Wemyss about the sneaky ways salmonella and E.coli bacteria germ-inate illness and evade our immune systems. These microbes are no small matter, but Dr Cat and Maddie’s enthusiasm for them is certainly infectious.

This episode originally aired 28th January, 2025.
