I had the great honour earlier this summer of recording a podcast with Research Records and the resulting Episode 25 is out now. Styled as “the soundtrack to academic adventure”, the podcast invites guests from my former institution The University of Sheffield, and occasionally from further afield, to talk about their life in research using a handful of musical picks to provide a rich cultural background.
Research Records started its life as one of the many activities pioneered by the charity Inspiration for Life, which is now closing after ten successful years. For much of that time I was the Treasurer and a trustee of the charity, and so through that connection I was invited to tell my academic story – or at least the story so far, since normally esteemed Professors are invited to the show!
