090 – Of spinal cords and stem cells

090-Neil-Ainsley-FB The Adelaide Show

Tonight we dive deep into health issues.

Firstly, spinal cord imaging research at SAHMRI being undertaken with support of the Neil Sachse Foundation. Neil joins us along with key participants Professor Brian Freeman and Prab Takhar.

Secondly, we meet local woman and mum, Ainsley Machonicie who has lived with MS for many years but is now embarking on a stem cell process to halt the disease and possibly reverse it.

In Time To Think, George Inglis, reflects on SAHMRI – an organisation he LOVES with a passion.

In IS IT NEWS, Nigel unlocks the medical vault with stories from the health sector spanning the last 60 years

Max Martin argues that we should be doing winter exercise and not be scared of a little rain.

You can also win a Wicks Estate Adelaide Hills Shiraz this week, thanks to the Arkaba Hotel.

And did you know Bob Dylan was born in Adelaide. He was, and we have musical proof.

And we start with David Washington from In Daily with the midweek news wrap, Talk Of The Town.
