Professor Bronwyn Hemsley participated in a BBC podcast on dysphagia hosted by Ruth Alexander in December 2022. She appeared on the show with California-based Sonia Blue who described losing the ability to swallow, and chef Niamh Condon from Cork, Ireland who developed several strategies on how to make food more appealing and pleasurable for residents with dysphagia in Aged Care. They discuss what causes dysphagia, how widespread it is, its impacts, and ways to minimise those impacts.
