BBC Radio Gloucestershire - Jo Durrant, Jo Durrant's Beautiful Universe 13/01/2019

Jo brings you a fusion of Arts and Science for your Sunday morning.

This week Jo chats to author Sarah Franklin who grew up in the Forest of Dean and moved away – but returned to her Forest roots when she wrote her debut novel.

If you’re hoping to be healthier in 2019 Jo gets some top tips and busts some myths with Professor Adam Hart from the University of Gloucestershire. 
Plus Jo visits the home of Dr Edward Jenner in Berkeley and finds out the story behind some special needles that played an important role in the eradication of smallpox.

And for Jo’s Festival Flashback you’ll hear her interview at the 2017 Cheltenham Literature Festival with writer Lois Pryce who motor biked from Alaska to Argentina and also rode solo around Iran.
