Intrigued by her work? Check out the episode of the 'Lost Women of Science' podcast about Dorothy Anderson and her work on cystic fibrosis!

As these findings were atypical for celiac disease, she began collecting records of similar cases, published her findings and described the condition she named cystic fibrosis. She and her team further developed a diagnostic test and contributed to the development of life-extending treatments.

Do you know the name Dorothy Hansine Andersen?
She was the first researcher and physician to discover cystic fibrosis and its autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. As a pathologist, she recognised distinctive organ damage in the pancreases and lungs of deceased children with celiac disease.

Dr Valentina Coia dives into the ancient DNA analysis of the Iceman and how much it adds to our understanding of who he was and where he came from. Was he a Sardinian tourist?
Did you know that the Iceman had tattoos, and there is some evidence that they were done to mark acupuncture points?
The best sessions are always those that are both educational and entertaining. Thanks to Prof Albert Zink for his wonderful dissection of the life and death of Ötzi the Iceman
