The Immunology Podcast
A journal club for immunologists, where two scientists unpack the latest papers and then interview the researchers behind them.
A weekly show for working immunologists that combines a rapid-fire journal club with a long-form interview. The hosts, both scientists themselves, begin by summarizing and debating 3-4 new papers from major journals, complete with friendly banter. They then dedicate the rest of the episode to a deep-dive conversation with a single expert guest about their specific area of research.
“The show's two-part structure is its defining feature: a fast-paced roundup of diverse new papers, followed by a focused, single-topic interview. This format allows listeners to get both a broad survey of the field and a deep understanding of a specific niche in each episode.”

- 02Tumor-Infiltrating B Cells Featuring Dr. Tullia Bruno
A prime example of the show's format, where the hosts connect personal experience (a conference diet) to a scientific paper on lipid metabolism before interviewing a leading researcher on B cells in cancer.
- 03From Microbes to Immune Responses Featuring Dr. Samuel Nobs
Showcases the hosts' humorous dynamic as they discuss survival TV shows and constipation before transitioning into a technical discussion on the microbiome and spatial transcriptomics.
What you'll be asked on this show
This is a co-hosted interview show. The hosts begin with a pre-interview segment discussing recent scientific papers before introducing the guest. The main interview focuses on the guest's specific area of expertise and recent publications, exploring the nuances of their work. The provided evidence did not contain specific recurring questions asked by the hosts, so a detailed breakdown of their interview technique is not possible.
The show is co-hosted by two PhDs who have a friendly, witty dynamic. Each episode opens with light personal chat before moving into a structured 'roundup' of recent immunology papers. This is followed by a long-form interview with a single academic guest, and the show is consistently sponsored by the parent company, STEMCELL Technologies.
