How can we minimise the impact of melting glaciers?
How To Fix… from the University of Leeds. Providing hopeful solutions to the greatest challenges humanity faces, directly from the scientists and researchers on the front line. Two billion people could be forced to leave their homes as the world’s glaciers melt. These ice giants provide fresh water to over half of humanity, but they’re disappearing faster than ever. If glaciers vanish at this pace, ecosystems collapse, communities uproot and human survival itself is at risk. But there’s still hope: by understanding these frozen worlds, and acting fast, we can secure a future where glaciers, and the billions who depend on them, endure. So today we want to ask – how can we minimise the impact of melting glaciers? Host Rich Williams is joined by three guests from the University of Leeds who are searching for the answers: • Professor Duncan Quincey, a leading glaciologist whose research focuses on how mountain glaciers are responding to climate change. He studies the ways these vast ice bodies are reshaping under rising temperatures and what this means for the millions of people who rely on them. • Kenton Cool, one of the world’s foremost high-altitude climbers and alumnus of the University of Leeds, who spent time with Professor Duncan Quincey’s research team while on his nineteenth ascent of Everest earlier this year. • Dr Lauren Rawlins, a glaciologist and Teaching Fellow in the School of Geography at the University of Leeds who studies how glaciers and glacial lakes are changing in a warming climate.

How can we help women thrive in menopause?
How To Fix… from the University of Leeds. Providing hopeful solutions to the greatest challenges humanity faces, directly from the scientists and researchers on the front line. This week: Menopause is the natural biological transition that marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years and an inevitable part of aging that, at any given time, is affecting a third of the entire female population. Yet it’s a topic that’s overlooked, misunderstood and often treated as taboo. So today we want to ask – how can we help women thrive in menopause? Host Rich Williams is joined by three guests from the University of Leeds who are searching for the answers: • Bee MacPherson is the Associate Professor of Clinical Education in the School of Medicine, and a healthcare professional who, after experiencing the challenges of perimenopause firsthand, has spent the past seven years leading workplace and cultural change to raise awareness around menopause. • Professor Janet Cade leads the Nutritional Epidemiology Group at the University and specialises in diet and health. As co-author of the landmark study on the effects of diet on the start of the menopause, she’s a world-expert in the role of food for women experiencing this transition. • Hannah Campbell is the Human Physiology Programme Lead and a Lecturer in Applied Human Physiology at the School of Biomedical Science who specialises in the relationship between the menopause and exercise and advocates for the transformative power of physical activity.

How To Fix… from the University of Leeds. Providing hopeful solutions to the greatest challenges humanity faces, directly from the scientists and researchers on the front line. This week: The early years of a child’s life shape their future. But for too many, the basic foundations are missing, leading to consequences that last a lifetime – impacting their education, health, happiness and more. How do we make sure that every child, wherever they’re born and whatever their background or circumstances, has the best possible start in life? Host Rich Williams is joined by three guests from the University of Leeds who are searching for the answers: • Professor Mark Mon-Williams: Holds a Chair in Cognitive Psychology at the University of Leeds, Editor of all twelve Child of the North reports and Deputy Chair of the Department for Education Science Advisory Council. • Professor Cat Davies: Professor of Language Development, Dean for Research Culture, and an international authority on early education and language development. • Professor Louise Tracey: Professor of Early Years Education, renowned expert in speech, communication and early years education and the university’s Research Centre Lead for Inclusion, Childhood and Youth.
