Undisciplinary
Each episode, sometimes academics, Courtney Hempton, Jane Williams and Chris Mayes take an undisciplined dive (i.e. bellyflop) into the underwater caverns of history, ethics and politics of health. They are joined by a cocktail of erudite, cantankerous and more qualified guests to talk through everything from the history of feminist bioethics to why acronyms are a curse and unnecessary evil. Plus, they break down the latest biopolitical news, discuss #bioethicstwitter bin-fires, and dig up forgotten gems from the archive. New episodes drop every Thursday.

Episode 6
In this episode Chris and Jane talk with Dr Michiel de Proost about his research on egg and sperm freezing, as well as feminist approaches to bioethics and reproductive justice.
Michiel is a newly graduated PhD from the Vrije Universiteit in Brussels, in the Research Centre for Gender, Diversity and Intersectionality. His work uses feminist ethics theories to explain conceptions of autonomy and emancipation in social egg freezing and, more recently, fertility apps that target men.
Undisciplinary - a podcast that talks across the boundaries of history, ethics, and the politics of health.
