Of Mice and Men - reposted podcast from ABC Radio National

We are re-posting this podcast which ABC Radio National posted in Feb 2020, featuring our own Declan Murphy and Peter Mac colleague, Professor Rob Ramsay, top scientist and prostate cancer patient. Some wonderful perspectives and very nicely put together by Natasha Mitchell from the Science Friction podcast at the ABC. Here is their blurb - 

You're a top cancer scientist. You think you know a lot about the disease. And then you get it. Suddenly you're "A Cancer Patient", and one of your colleagues is wielding the (robotic) scalpel in your surgery. 

Tables are turned, but once a scientist always a scientist, even on the operating table. 

A story about science, knowledge, and vulnerability. Don't miss this frank and fearless conversation about an experience many men don’t talk openly about.
