Über diesen Titel

From government policies to the air we breathe, the high streets we shop on, the food on our plates, and the places we live and work - our health is shaped by the world around us.​


Featuring expert guests from a breadth of sectors, fields and industries, Spread the Health explores how our environment influences health in both obvious and unexpected ways. ​


We tackle the big questions about the nation's health and, crucially, examine how to overcome the barriers to building a healthier future for all.​


Spread the Health is a podcast from the Royal Society for Public Health, the world’s oldest public health agency.

  • Is AI a friend or foe to public health?

    Is AI a friend or foe to public health?
    Feb 3 2026

    This week, we are tackling a subject which has developed so rapidly over the last few years that almost every sector has had to reckon with it in form or another. That subject is AI and large language models.


    To help shed light on what it means for public health, William is joined by Christina Pagel, professor of operational research at University College London, and Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.


    They cover the risks and rewards of the technology, the effects it will likely have on the workforce, and whether governments are prepared to manage and regulate a technology that has the potential to be so transformative – for better or worse.
