Science and Beyond

About the Programme

Science and Beyond is a down-to-earth and vibrant science programme, where learning meets captivating interviews, cutting-edge facts, and bite-sized segments in a show that’s equal parts informative and fun! We sit down with scientist and healthcare professionals who are the creme-de-la-creme of their field, taking listeners on a journey to unpack complex topics in an accessible and fascinating way.

From the landmark developments in cardiovascular surgery, insightful reflections behind sleep hygiene, to everyday clinical practice that brings science to life, it’s a given that you will find a topic that will resonate with you. Established in January 2025, this show airs live every Tuesday and Thursday from 13:00-14:00 on Radio Cherwell and can be heard on our listen again channel below

Science Competition 2026

As a former nursing assistant, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with multidisciplinary teams and witnessing first-hand the dedication, innovation, and humanity that define healthcare. Through Science and Beyond and the annual science competition, I hope to share that same sense of curiosity, responsibility, and excitement with a wider audience-  both within the hospital community and beyond.
