Lost Cells
What does it mean to lose something as valuable as our own DNA? That’s one of the many questions in Lost Cells, a gripping investigative podcast series that uncovers the human stories behind the promises and failures of high-tech health solutions.
In Spain, a former journalist with a terminal illness searches desperately for his daughter’s stem cells, hoping they can save his life. In Serbia, a family’s plans to help their daughter through cutting-edge research collapse when the promises of the Cryo-Save stem cell bank are broken. Meanwhile, from Switzerland to the United States, a team of journalists works to uncover the truth behind these failures.
This trilingual series, available in English, Spanish and French, explores the global impact of Cryo-Save’s collapse.
Lost Cells is a story of vulnerability, hope, and the ethical challenges of stem cell research. It takes listeners into the heart of an industry that touches on our deepest fears and aspirations about health and technology. Listen and subscribe to Lost Cells wherever you get your podcasts, including Apple Podcasts, iVoox, Spotify, and YouTube.
Lost Cells is an original SWI swissinfo.ch trilingual podcast series in collaboration with Piz Gloria Productions, Futur Proche and Studio Ochenta.
