Episode summary
We discuss if it’s possible for scientists to work from home, cytokine storms and a brand new 'magic' toilet.
Our panellists this week make pitches for command over our internal armies of bacteria phages and reprogramming our immune cells.
The audience want self-scratching backs and bodies we can repair ourselves.
Which will make it onto the shortlist? Which pitch will win? Listen to find out!
