Dr Chris Smith and the Naked Scientist team present the latest science news, analysis and breakthroughs.

In today’s programme: What attracts mosquitoes to some people but not others? Grow not mow: why one Cambridge college has broken hundreds of years of tradition, and decided not to mow their lawn. And we look at the science of memory. What is it, and how can we improve our own memories?
