🧠 welcome to the LAST episode of OVERLOOKED, the series where we shine a light on the women in STEM who history often left in the shadows. For our last episode, we’re talking all about Candace Pert, the groundbreaking neuroscientist who discovered the opioid receptor. Her work not only changed our understanding of how the brain and body communicate but also opened doors for modern medicine. She challenged the establishment, broke barriers as a woman in science, and proved just how powerful persistence and brilliance can be.

😳 And don’t forget this week’s LaboraTEAAAA… we’ve got a wild anonymous story about someone who suspects a colleague might actually be living in the lab. Empty protein bar wrappers, toothpaste left behind, the whole thing. Tune in to hear what we think!

🧮 We’re BACK with the ninth episode of… OVERLOOKED - this series we are looking on the other side of HIS-tory at some of the most iconic women in stem. This was a highly requested theme so we can’t wait for you to listen! You’ve probably heard of Alan Turing—the mathematical genius who cracked the Nazi Enigma code and helped end World War II.

He’s the war hero, the pioneer of modern computing, the face of genius under pressure.

But what if we told you… he didn’t do it alone?

Behind the war rooms, the machines, and the myth was someone else—

a woman in the shadows, armed not with weapons, but with numbers, logic, and relentless precision. She didn’t seek the spotlight, but her mind helped alter the course of history.

Her name? Joan Clarke. Tune in to learn all about her pioneering work.

😳 And don’t forget the laboraTEAAAA! This week are back with some crazy what would you do if scenarios. Listen in to find out what we think!

⚡ Welcome to EP8 of OVERLOOKED! Today we’re exploring the story of one of the most legendary scientists in history… and yet, someone who still had to fight to be recognised: Marie Curie.

The year is 1898. In a cramped Paris laboratory, Marie and her husband Pierre discover two new elements: polonium and radium. These glowing substances would open the door to the age of radioactivity, transforming medicine and physics forever. But the discoveries came at a cost. Years of exposure slowly poisoned Marie, and despite winning two Nobel Prizes in different sciences (QUEEN), she was denied a seat at the French Academy of Sciences, SIMPLY because she was a woman.

🪄 Without Marie Curie, we wouldn’t have X-rays in hospitals, cancer radiotherapy, or even our modern understanding of radioactivity. S

🫨 And for this week’s LaboraTEAAAA… someone wrote in about their lab mate STEALING their slides from their computer and presenting them at a conference. The AUDACITY… We have thoughts.
