Episode 19: Superfly

This week on Razor Sounds we look at a company that’s looking to revolutionise the way we try and feed the world. Entocycle is a biotechnology company that farms Black soldier flies to convert their larvae into protein that they use to feed livestock.  

Emma Keeling spoke to founder and director Kieron Whitaker who explains how he came up with the idea for Entocycle [01:39]. Emma also takes us on a tour through the facility and tries a cookie made from larvae! 

On what’s exciting us in science this week, Emma explains how doctors have discovered an unusual way that might cure tinnitus and Shini explains why fish scales have given engineers new insights into aerodynamics.
