The Confidence Interval is an occasional podcast from the MRC Epidemiology Unit – talking science, people and public health.

In the latest edition, Oliver Francis talks to Dr Jean Adams from the dietary public health team at the Unit and Centre for Diet and Activity Research about how we might improve the nation’s diet, the politics of what we eat, moving from medicine to public health and what motivates her scientific inquiry.
