Show Notes
Welcome to The Borne Podcast, the podcast that brings you stories of research, resilience, and real-life experiences of pregnancy and preterm birth.
Join Ellie Gibson, Caro Tasker and Professor Mark Johnson as they bring together parents, experts, and scientists to share their stories with honesty and compassion. We talk about the science, but we also talk about hope, heartbreak, courage, and the small victories that mean everything. Because every insight, every conversation, and every breakthrough moves us towards a future where more babies can arrive safely, at the right time.
In this episode, Ellie, Caro and Mark are joined by Professor Lucilla Poston CBE. Lucilla is the Chair of the Borne Scientific Advisory Board, a group of clinicians and scientists who evaluate the grant applications submitted to Borne for funding. Under Lucilla's leadership, we look forward to selecting the best research projects to advance our goal of preventing premature birth.
