Gavin is joined once again by Richard and Jessamy as they examine key developments in global health and science. This week's discussion features reflections on the launch of a new Lancet series on Alzheimer’s disease, highlighting advances in prevention, diagnosis, and care, as well as the ethical and practical challenges posed by emerging treatments. We also explore the global landscape of liver cancer, demographic change, the shifting centre of scientific research, and recent studies on human longevity. Join us for a thoughtful, evidence-based conversation on pressing issues in health, policy, and research worldwide.
