Ideas for future shows

  • Big journals file: listings of population genetics papers in the meta journals: Nature, Science, PNAS, PLOS Biology etc.
  • Big fish file: new papers by household names - two caveats: favours the establishment and everyone has their own favourites
  • General science policy issues - again, mostly regurgitation from Science, Nature et al.
  • Interviews with Edinburgh and visiting academics
  • Co-hosted shows with other grad students from Edinburgh, or visiting
  • Contributed shows from around the Globe - send me the mp3, I'll take care of hosting and syndication (i.e. making it into a podcast)
