Research has a human side.

MedCast is a student-led club at McMaster University creating a podcast that explores important, current research in medicine and science through interviews with professionals.

We hope to explore how researchers got started, what their work means, and what advice they would share with students.

First recordings are planned for November 2026.

The MedCast idea

Good science starts with good questions.

We want to make research and health science easier to explore by starting with the people who do the work.

01 / THE WORK

What are we learning?

Explore the questions researchers ask and why their work matters in health and science.

02 / THE PATH

How did they get here?

Hear about the experiences, choices, and unexpected turns behind a research or career journey.

03 / THE NEXT STEP

Where could students begin?

Learn what guests would tell students who are curious about these fields.
