Über diesen Titel

 Welcome to Science Unpacked: The BioS Podcast, where we will ask the burning questions and unpack science for you. Each month, our BioS Reporters will sit down with inspiring people for deep dive interviews that go beyond what fits on a page of our journal. From behind the scenes of science and student research to glimpses into future dream careers, we bring science to life. We also explore "What’s the Evidence?" behind headline-making discoveries, investigated by BioS students themselves.

    Is Birth Control Changing Your Type?
    Mar 6 2026
    In this episode, Ecren Arıöz, Mariia Voloshyna and I explore a fascinating question: Can the contraceptive pill influence who you’re attracted to, down to who you choose as a partner?Listen as we unpack how hormonal contraception may shape attraction, partner preferences and relationship dynamics, and what this has to do with sweaty T-shirts.Join us as we ask “What's the evidence?”

  • Inside Doping Control: Science, Safeguards, and Hormones

    Inside Doping Control: Science, Safeguards, and Hormones
    Jan 21 2026
    After last month’s deep dive into hormones, Philine and Marit continued the conversation with Dr. Annekathrin Keiler and Prof. Oliver Zierau. We explored how doping-testing works andhow results are protected from manipulation. We also explore current hormone research, including menopause and hormonal cyclicity, and discuss why these topics matter far beyond elite sport. Together, we examine how scientific research informs anti-doping practices and shapes a broader understanding of health, fairness, and performance.

  • Hormones: Misunderstood, Misused, and Measured

    Hormones: Misunderstood, Misused, and Measured
    Dec 4 2025
    Feeling hormonal? But what does that even mean?!In this episode, we unpack the science of hormones with Dr. Annekathrin Keiler and Prof. Oliver Zierau. Together, we explore what hormones really are, how they work in the body, and why they play a key role in anti-doping research. You’ll learn how hormonal signals influence performance, what counts as “doping,” and where the science gets complicated. Tune in for an interesting discussion and maybe a good comeback for the next time someone calls you out for being "hormonal" !
