Meet the people finding the answers that matter

Wel­come to Patho­log­i­cal­ly Speak­ing – our offi­cial podcast.

It’s where we tell the sto­ries of the peo­ple find­ing the answers that mat­ter. Meet some of the best and bright­est peo­ple work­ing behind the scenes to pro­tect and enhance the health, safe­ty and well-being of our com­mu­ni­ties – at all stages of life.

Each episode of the pod­cast deep dives into some fas­ci­nat­ing top­ics. This sea­son you’ll hear from a foren­sic DNA spe­cial­ist, a mycol­o­gist talk­ing all things fun­gus, a genomics expert explain­ing how med­i­cine is being tai­lored to your genes, and find out the sur­pris­ing sci­ence behind ticks, bed­bugs and med­i­c­i­nal maggots.

Our host, Liz Far­quhar, chats to a fan­tas­tic line up of guests about their roles at NSW Health Pathol­o­gy, their back­ground, inter­est­ing sto­ries of their job, dis­cov­er­ies, break­throughs, career tips, per­son­al and pro­fes­sion­al tri­umphs and hur­dles, and the pow­er of curios­i­ty when find­ing the answers that mat­ter to people.
