Professor Mike Rogan knew Dr Michael Mosley from one of the presenter's previous medical experiments
A Belfast professor who knew Dr Michael Mosley thought it was an "experiment" when he first went missing. BBC TV presenter Dr Michael Mosley went for a hike on Wednesday, June 5, on the Greek island of Symi.
Originally from East Belfast, the 68-year-old told the ECHO: "It was a crazy feeling when I first heard the news. It puts it all into perspective - how an everyday thing such as walking in high temperatures can make such a difference." "This obviously wasn't the case, but you can almost see him analysing what was happening to his body in those final moments because that is the type of person he was."
The stool samples were given to Mike and his colleagues at the University of Salford - who at the time, were thought to be the only group conducting such studies. "It supplied us with some really good material to work with. We got to know him when we went to the pub for lunch. He chatted away, he was a lovely guy. Never too intrusive or over-stating. He was genuinely interested in the science behind it all."
