このコンテンツについて
In this episode I speak with the fascinating scientist and writer Matthew Cobb whose books and research cover a wide range of topics from, in no particular order – how we came to understand the process of reproduction, how maggots smell, to genetics, how the brain works, to the French resistance! We explore the imaginative and collaborative nature of both art and science - discussing Matthew’s current work on a biography of Francis Crick (out in Nov 2025), the challenges of communicating complex scientific ideas, and the role of creativity in both scientific and artistic practice.
We talk about the mysteries of consciousness, the power of metaphor in science, and how storytelling shapes understanding. Matthew reflects on the influences that have shaped his thinking, the importance of generosity in academia, and the shared curiosity that drives both artists and scientists. Matthews enthusiastic, wide range of knowledge and insights celebrate not just what we know, but the beauty of what we don’t yet understand.
Works by Matthew can be found online, in bookshops or your local library.
