In the first in our series of Brexit podcasts, Elisabetta Zanon director of the NHS European Office, explores the implications Brexit will have on the health and care sector.

- migration and the rights of EU health and care workers in the UK

- recruitment of staff from the EU
- the impact on research and innovation within the NHS.
