@DiscoveryDialogues Podcast: The Race for Human Insulin In the second episode of the @DiscoveryDialogues podcast, the hosts Dr. Ani Deshpande and Dr. Pam Itkin-Ansari narrate the exciting, behind-the-scenes stories in the race to make human insulin. From freight trains rumbling through Indiana and Boeing 747s carrying a most unexpected cargo, we'll uncover the story of a Time Magazine cover star who stole the spotlight from British Royalty, a Japanese PhD student who wanted to be the fastest gene maker in the world, a multimillion dollar donor who wanted to remain anonymous and the ethical storm around what some believed was scientists trying to play God. Today, if you or your loved one has diabetes and needs to take insulin injections, the hormone that you're injecting is not extracted from cows or pigs like it was at the time of Banting's discovery. It is recombinant human insulin and we will recount the absolutely fascinating behind-the-scenes stories of the science and the drama of how we got there in episode two of the @DiscoveryDialogues Podcast.
