About the show

From a flat sheet of cells in the womb to mini-brains in lab incubators, Dr Rana Fetit (The University of Edinburgh) unpacks brain development using stem cells and organoids. The future is created through childbirth. Dr Rosie Townsend (The University of Edinburgh) races through time to learn how bravery in birth got us here, and how new technology will shape safer births in the future. Part of the Edinburgh Medical School’s 300th Anniversary.
