Raw Talk Podcast
Institute of Medical Science, University of Toronto
Raw Talk is a graduate student-run podcast at the University of Toronto about medical science, and the people who make it happen. We focus on the journeys, perspectives, and expertise of health researchers, professionals, students, patients, and community members at the University of Toronto and beyond.
Our mission is to promote the research culture within the Institute of Medical Science, the Temerty Faculty of Medicine, and broader life sciences community; provide guidance to current and prospective graduate students; and to engage the public in medical science innovations and translational research.

#2: Polymers that Promote Healing
In this session of the Raw Talk Podcast, we are happy to welcome the incredibly accomplished Dr. Molly Shoichet to the show! Dr. Shoichet shares her love for collaboration, working at the interface of different fields, and engaging the public in science. You'll also learn how she found her way back to academia after a successful industry career and what she looks for in potential trainees. We're also excited to introduce our very first "Ask a Student" segment with PhD Candidate, Nick Mitrousis. Nick provides insight into being a student in the Shoichet lab and what he sees as the future of polymer science and regenerative medicine. This one is not to miss. Until next time, keep it raw!

#1: Introducing Raw Talk (formerly known as Raw Data)
On the first episode of the podcast, the Raw Talk team discusses all you need to know about the show, from inspiration to implementation, and everything in between. You'll learn why a podcast and video series make a winning combination, and how we're using themes, to provide more engaging content. We also spend a good portion introducing ourselves - sometimes revealing a little too much - while playing a game of "Kat Chats." We've got big plans for Season 1, and we can't wait for you to hear what's in store. Until next time, keep it raw!
