Their work is changing the world we live in, but what do we really know about their lives beyond the lab? Based on interviews for BBC Radio 4's hit series, The Life Scientific: Explorers reveals the life and work of some of the foremost scientists in the world, from Nobel laureates to the next generation of beautiful minds. Getting under their skin and into their minds, we find out what first inspired them towards their field of research and what motivates them to keep going when the evidence seems to be stacking up against their theories.The Life Scientific: Explorers features Michele Dougherty on the Cassini mission to Saturn; Henry Marsh, neurosurgeon, on slicing through our thoughts; Colin Pillinger on designing the Beagle 2 Mars lander; Helen Sharman on being the first British person in space; and Brian Cox on particle physics.
