Episode description

Breakthrough: a woman in Scotland is helping scientists with diagnostic testing. Apparently, her heightened sense of smell means she can ‘smell Parkinson’s’. The earliest known mammal has been identified by fossil dental records; we speak to the Natural History Museum about the condition of the teeth, this tiny shrew-like animal who existed alongside dinosaurs and why it's important. And why American technology companies have been banned from building semiconductor factories in China.
