Research Records is a monthly podcast hosted by Professor Marie Kinsey (Journalism) and Professor Tony Ryan OBE (Chemistry) from The University of Sheffield. Each month they are joined by esteemed guests from The University of Sheffield (and occasionally further afield) for a lively and engaging chat about their personal and professional journey alongside their own soundtrack to academic adventure, all over the course of about an hour.

Our latest guest Allan Pacey will be familiar to many through his work on radio, television, and film to explain the science behind human reproduction and infertility, including ‘Me, My Brother and our Balls’ (BBC Three (2020) & the ‘The Great Sperm Race’ (Channel Four (2009) and at one point was Allan’s single-handedly responsible for 10% of the University of Sheffield’s media interest.

Playing tracks by Electric Light Orchestra, The Housemartins, The Skullduggers, The Cure, Mozart and more.
