⚠️ Trigger warning: This episode contains references to domestic violence and a mental health crisis. Who am I without alcohol? Does that question sound eerily familiar? Steph and Nicole both find themselves grappling with that very idea and wondering what the answer will mean for them. Steph is 55, and alcohol has been by her side and has helped define her for most of her adult life. Nicole looks to alcohol for the answers and to smooth the rough edges, and isn't sure if she's capable of being herself with a glass in her hand. Coaches Cole and Hayley help provide guidance and hope in this week's episode. Steph discusses: Why "loss of identity" became the real subject of her coaching call, not just the drinking The belief that she'd failed herself and her friends, and how that belief kept her stuck Why chasing a "finished" identity by a deadline backfires The threshold metaphor, and why stepping into the unknown feels safer than staying somewhere familiar but unwanted Her plan to resign from teaching by May 1st, and what she's choosing to let go of first Nicole discusses: How alcohol became tangled with her identity before she ever turned 21 The seven-year relationship and the night that ended with her in a hospital for three days November 5, 2025: the day she sat in her car and decided something had to change Why grace and curiosity did more for her than willpower ever did What she calls her "2D glasses" moment, and what she sees now that alcohol's gone And more… Ready to take the next step?

Episode Title: Demystifying Molar Endo: Metallurgy, Apex Locators, and Safe Canal Negotiation Host: Dr. Melissa Seibert (Dental Digest Podcast) Guest: Dr. Matt Chesler, DDS, MS (Board-Trained Endodontist & Resident Faculty at Spear Education) Episode Summary For many general practitioners, molar endodontics presents high anxiety before ever reaching a canal . Staring into an access preparation, searching for the pulp chamber, and worrying about over-drilling or ledging can cause significant stress . In this episode, Dr. Matt Chesler breaks down these fears by sharing practical, evidence-based approaches to modern instrumentation, glide path creation, working length determination, and retreatment decision-making . Dr. Chesler discusses why hand files are often the true culprit behind ledges, how modern reciprocating files offer a safer envelope of motion, why apex locators far outperform 2D radiographs, and why coronal sealing and high-quality restorations dictate long-term success . Key Discussion Topics & Timestamps — Introduction & Elevated GP Study Club Overview of Dr. Matt Chesler's background and the Elevated GP virtual study club . — File Metallurgy & The Hand File Myth Debunking misconceptions around rotary file ledging . How active-tip C-files create apical zips, ledges, and transportation . — Glide Path Formation & Reciprocating Files Transitioning away from hand files as early as possible (#8 or #10 hand file) . Using reciprocating glide path files (e.g., WaveGlider) and dynamic movement protocols . — Orifice Openers & Hunting for MB2 How orifice openers (e.g., Dentsply Gold Sx) straighten 45-degree entry angles . Techniques for brushing outward toward line angles and locating tight MB2 canals . — Working Length: Apex Locators vs. Radiographs Why the anatomic apex and radiographic apex fail to coincide in 88% of cases . Modern Electronic Apex Locator (EAL) accuracy (100% within $pm 1text{ mm}$) vs. 2D radiographs (65%–84%) . Why obturation outcomes are 15% higher when kept short or flush rather than long . — Chemical Negotiation & EDTA Usage Using liquid EDTA early in calcified canals to deliver files without damaging root dentin . Viewing endodontics simply as "a really deep Class 1 filling" . — Orifice Barriers & The 45-Day Re-Contamination Rule Material choices for coronal seals (Fuji Triage / dual-cure Glass Ionomer) . Managing exposed gutta-percha and why 45 days is Dr. Chesler's go/no-go threshold for retreatment . — Selective Retreatment & Restorative Priority When to perform selective retreatment (treating the MB root alone for missed MB2s) . Why good restorations with suboptimal endo out-perform good endo with bad restorations . — Systemic Health Impacts & Closing Remarks Research from King's College showing endodontic treatment lowers systemic biomarkers (blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol) . Key Takeaways 1. Hand Files Are Often the Cause of Ledging, Not Rotaries Ledges and apical transportation frequently result from improper hand file use (e.g., using active-tip C-files without pre-curving) rather than modern rotary or reciprocating files . Moving to mechanized instrumentation early creates a safer and more forgiving outcome . 2. Trust Your Apex Locator Over 2D Radiographs Radiographs fail to show the true anatomic apex in roughly 88% of cases . Modern electronic apex locators offer near 100% accuracy within $pm 1text{ mm}$ . Keeping obturation short or flush is 15% better for outcomes than overextending past the apex . 3. Orifice Openers Save Time and Dentin An orifice opener combines multiple Gates Glidden sizes into one file . Brushing outward toward line angles straightens canal entry and facilitates MB2 location without excessive tooth structure removal . 4. The Coronal Seal Drives Success A well-restored tooth with average endo has a higher long-term success rate than perfect endo with a leaking restoration . Exposed gutta-percha re-contaminates quickly; if open to oral fluids past 45 days, retreatment should be strongly considered . 5. Systemic Health Benefits Resolving endodontic infections directly improves systemic biomarkers, including measurable reductions in blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels .

Smart. Key. The core of a performance. While, on paper, it may not look like Kotaro Nishiyama will be key to any 2D music project he's a part of, the truth is, the groups he's a part of, without him, would sound completely unbalanced.Yes, Kotaro Nishiyama has a hidden power that he brings to his performances, and that has both made him essential for the 2D groups he's a part of and also, in his solo career, led to me labeling as a smart singer.Music suggestions:- ZOOL "4ROAR"- ZOOL "Stronger and Stronger"- QUELL "What do you see"- Kotaro Nishiyama "Time Machine"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!

Despite being released in 1988, Who Framed Roger Rabbit remains the pinnacle of blending 2D animation with live action photography. Set in Hollywood after World War II, it follows Detective Eddie Valiant as he unravels the murder mystery involving famed toon Roger Rabbit, his wife Jessica Rabbit, and the terrifying villain Judge Doom. It's also famous for bringing together, for the first time, Disney and Warner Bros. characters like Donald and Daffy Duck, plus Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny. Next week we'll look at a not as good live action/animation hybrid, and the week after that one of the worst to do it in the lead up to Coyote VS ACME.

“We're moving from isolated geoscience disciplines to integrated subsurface solutions. You're seeing AI becoming an enabling technology rather than the story itself.” Adam R. Goss and Bunmi Elebiju explain why IMAGE '26 is designed to reward people who look beyond their usual discipline. AI, uncertainty, regional geology, and emerging energy applications are woven through the program because the real value comes from seeing how different parts of geoscience connect to better decisions. This conversation helps attendees understand what to look for, how to navigate the program, and why the session you did not plan to attend may be the one that changes how you approach your work. Learn more about IMAGE '26 and register today at https://www.imageevent.org/. KEY TAKEAWAYS > Integration was a deliberate program decision: The committee avoided separate SEG, AAPG, and narrowly defined technology silos because today's geoscientists must connect geology, geophysics, digital tools, uncertainty, finance, and business decisions. > AI has moved from demonstration to accountability: The important question at IMAGE '26 is no longer whether AI can interpret seismic data, accelerate FWI, or pick wells, but where it improves decision quality, where poor data limits it, and where human expertise remains essential. > Attendees should organize IMAGE around a problem, not a job title: Following one technical objective across regions, disciplines, oral sessions, and posters can reveal ideas that would remain hidden inside a geology, geophysics, basin, or technology track.

What if you could turn a rough idea, a handful of inspiration images, or even a back-of-the-napkin sketch into a professional design or promotional video—in seconds rather than days?Today's AI design tools can help you create mood boards, photorealistic rooms, 3D objects, architectural visuals, marketing assets, product advertisements, and videos without mastering a long list of complicated creative platforms.The key is to stop treating AI as a one-off image generator. Instead, build repeatable workflows that move from inspiration to finished asset—while dramatically reducing the time, cost, and manual effort involved.In this episode of the Leveraging AI Podcast, Isar Meitis walks through practical AI-powered design workflows that can be applied far beyond interior design.Whether you need visuals for a website, presentation, brochure, proposal, product campaign, architectural project, or social media post, these methods can help you create more options and move from concept to execution faster.In this session, you'll discover:The difference between free 2D-to-3D tools and more detailed paid alternatives.How to move a 3D asset into tools such as SketchUp and create a photorealistic render.How to transform a collection of inspiration images into a professional mood board with ChatGPT.How to preserve a room's layout while changing its furniture, lighting, materials, and atmosphere.How Figma Weave can turn a manual creative process into a repeatable visual workflow.How to place products realistically into new environments with the correct angle, lighting, and shadows.How AI can generate multiple advertising concepts for the same product automatically.How these workflows can support web design, architecture, brochures, proposals, presentations, product marketing, and other business needs.About Leveraging AIThe Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/eventsIf you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!
What if the real obstacle in 3D cell culture and tissue engineering isn't the cells, but the very ground they grow on?For years, cell culture has relied on flat plastic and passive scaffolds. But biology doesn't happen on a petri dish—cells live in three dimensions, surrounded by a dynamic environment that talks back, adapts, and shapes development in ways static gels simply cannot.That's the premise behind MosaMatrix, a novel hydrogel platform designed to transform how we grow cells, engineer tissues, and screen new drugs created by CEO Jan Hunik and CTO Matt Baker.Topics discussed:Why traditional flat, 2D cell culture misses the biological mark and what a responsive cell environment really looks like (00:27)The origins of MosaMatrix and the realization that new, adaptive hydrogels were needed for dynamic cell culture (04:45)What makes the MosaMatrix hydrogel different—and why passive scaffolds fall short (06:12)Mechanical and biological characteristics that define hydrogel performance, from stiffness to stress relaxation (07:48)The company's pivot from 3D tissue printing to focusing on high-throughput 3D cell culture for drug discovery (08:42)Advantages of a non-animal-derived, reproducible matrix for research and industry (10:20)Strategies for obtaining real-world customer feedback and working in consortia with academia and industry partners (11:51)Key hurdles in quality control, reproducibility, and measuring success in the emerging field (16:05)Challenges with standardizing organoids and the move to smaller, more automatable culture systems (17:50)The impact of automation and data consistency for scaling up 3D cell culture (18:14)Smart insight: MosaMatrix validates its hydrogel not through internal R&D alone, but through direct collaboration with academic and industry partners — testing performance across cell types and culture media. This includes a ~50-company consortium building next-gen 3D cell culture tools and a new consortium improving kidney dialysis with living human cells. The partnerships surface real variables, like how much culture media composition affects results, that continually shape product development.If this conversation got you thinking about biomaterials, scale-out manufacturing, and what it takes to turn a chemistry breakthrough into a fundable company, these episodes explore the same ground from complementary angles.Episodes 221 - 222: From 2D Cultures to Advanced 3D Cell Models for Preclinical Research with Catarina BritoEpisodes 259 - 260: Why Strong Science Isn't Enough to Get Funded: What Investors Actually Look For with Michael RomeEpisodes 265 - 266: From Human Variability to Automated Precision: Accelerating Cell and Gene Therapy Manufacturing Scale-Out with Farlan VeraitchEpisodes 223 - 224: From Cultivated Meat to Chocolate: Rethinking Cellular Agriculture Scale-Up with Steven LangConnect with Jan Hunik and Matt Baker:Emails: matt.baker@mosamatrix.com and jan.hunik@mosamatrix.comWebsite: www.mosamatrix.comLinkedIn Jan Hunik: www.linkedin.com/in/jan-hunik-0183734LinkedIn Matt Baker: www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-baker-0abb981bSupport the show

I’m your host, Allen Hall, and I’m here with Rosemary Barnes, who is recovering from a very serious illness, Matthew Stead, who has been healthy pretty much all the Australian winter, and Yolanda Padron in sunny, hot Austin, Texas. Welcome, Rosemary Rosemary Barnes: Thank you. I am recovering from man flu, and I say man flu because it’s just a cold, but I’m complaining a lot about it. Allen Hall: there’s gonna be a new name for Siemens Gamesa. So it was Siemens and then Gamesa’s a separate company. They merged. Siemens Energy, uh, broke off from Siemens AG. So [00:01:00] that’s a very well-known name, Siemens. It’s– Everybody knows Siemens at this point around the world. And the, the one family had, as a company, had s- label on everything, right? So it’s, uh, Werner von Siemens started it 150 years ago. It’s been a long time since Siemens was started, but it’s everywhere. It’s on turbines, transformers, and power plants around the world, and now they’re changing their name, right? So when Siemens Energy broke off from Siemens AG, they, they had a limited time they could use that name, so they have rebranding themselves or are about to rebrand themselves, and I wanna pronounce this right, Omterra. O-M-T-E-R-R-A. Now, we did a little research on this, and I think it’s Latin for all of the world. It’s kind of a conjoined, uh, set of words, Latin words, kind of a, a schmear in a sense. So, uh, so the company that, you [00:02:00] know, that spun off in w- roughly 2020, if I remember this right, Matthew, does that sound right? It was roughly 2020 when Siemens Energy was established on its own. Uh, they’re gonna be changing their name to Omterra. So instead of seeing, seeing Siemens Gamesa publications or Siemens Gamesa wind turbines, I guess they’re gonna have this new name, Omterra. What do we all think? Matthew Stead: I think it’s great. I think, and if you go back to, you know, GE Vernova, um, I, I thought Vernova was a bit weird for a while, but now it just rolls off the tongue and easy. It just makes so much sense. Um, so I’m, I’m, I’m for it. I, I like it. I’ve already… You know, can already say it. It took a lot longer to say Vernova than it’s taking to say Terra. Rosemary Barnes: I think that it– But it’s not Vernova, it’s GE Vernova, right? So everyone knows what it is. Whereas my understanding is it’s not Siemens Omtera, it’s just Omtera, which makes it sound like a new budget kind of [00:03:00] brandless, history-less, uh, company. So that’s… Yeah, I’m no branding expert, but I think that, uh, like they, they must have not been able to use the word Siemens at all, um, because otherwise you surely would, because it has a very… Outside of, you know, their blade issues and bearing issues of a couple of years ago, they do have a, like a solid engineering reputation across many fields, so you wouldn’t probably intentionally divorce yourself entirely from that. So, um, yeah, I, I think it will take some getting used to for me Matthew Stead: but everyone remembers. I mean, it’s not like– The people in the wind industry know their heritage, they know their history, so I don’t think it matters. I mean, you know, you know, they, they purchase the Senvion, you know, technologies or, you know, licenses in Europe. You know, y- y- you don’t forget these things, so I don’t think it matters. I think it’s just a, it’s a color, it’s a, it’s a label Yolanda Padron: I think it’ll be fine. I just think that there will be a little [00:04:00] bit of confusion down the line as with everything, right? Like I’ve, I’ve been on the side of conversations where I have to explain like Siemens versus like SGRE on paper and it’s like, oh, it’s– this is why th- there was that paper trail, uh, because people would think it was an absolutely different thing. Um, so I, I can totally see those conversations coming, coming to play in the future where someone thinks that Ontier is a completely different entity that maybe they changed OEMs or something, um, for a site. But nothing a little history lesson won’t fix, I guess. Matthew Stead: You just want people talking about you Rosemary Barnes: Name change every year Allen Hall: Change your name every year. Well, that’s, that’s one way to approach it. I w- always wonder what the boardroom looks like and sounds like when this discussion is going on, because Siemens, Siemens Energy is a big company, and there had to be outsourcing of this to probably several marketing firms, mostly [00:05:00] in Germany, I’m guessing. And they came back with a bunch of pitches, and eventually they picked one. But boardrooms are probably not the place to pick a name. And I always think like, “Oh, you just had such a opportunity to do something really cool or really impressive.” Allen Hall: Well, we’ll see how it goes with Omterra. The, it’s gonna be, I’m sure, a huge marketing effort, and you’ll probably see commercials for it during the Super Bowl. Developers are [00:06:00] eyeing Britain’s next big renewables auction and have been waiting to learn the rules and most importantly, the price. Well, this week the UK government delivered both. It confirmed a package of changes to the CFD scheme ahead of allocation round eight, aimed at simplifying the process and keeping good projects from being tripped up by some paperwork. So AR7 was super successful, and they’re hopefully gonna have a, a great allocation round eight. Uh, unchanged from last round, here are some pieces to it. AR7 brought in 15 gigawatts of, of new capacity, uh, well below the ceilings, and the government is betting that that’s stability from AR7’s gonna exist for AR8, so they’re keeping the pricing limits the same. And let me give you some of the numbers here. So everything’s in 2024 prices, just so we have a baseline here. It, 113 pounds per megawatt hour [00:07:00] for fixed bottom offshore wind, 271 pounds for floating offshore wind. That’s, uh, pounds per megawatt. And then 92 pounds per megawatt for onshore wind, and s- 75 pounds per megawatt for solar. So 271 pounds per megawatt hour in 2044 dollars is, you know, you’re probably talking, what, 290 pounds per megawatt hour. That’s a really good strike price or ceiling to allow, uh, some more floating wind into the UK waters Rosemary Barnes: Yeah. Well, the UK have this newly signed agreement with Japan, right, to, to progress development of that technology. I feel like I, I haven’t looked up any numbers to back this up, but I feel like the gap between fixed bottom and floating is narrowing. It’s barely more than double now, which, um, yeah, I think is not that bad considering how little development there has been for floating offshore wind compared to fixed bottom. So [00:08:00] yeah, I think that it is an interesting technology to develop. I, I know with the, um, auction rounds and ’cause it’s a government thing, it’s easy to think, “Oh, why are you spending any money on anything other than the cheapest one?” Because y- you know, like, it, it feels weird that the government would play, you know, when they’re purchasing power for their grid, that they would do any more than trying to just get, you know, bulk power at the cheapest price possible whilst ensuring, you know, reliability. Um, but in the previous or the previous, the one– last one or the one before that, they had quite a few tidal projects announced that certainly, you know, an expensive and not mature technology. But I think that you can’t say the same thing about floating offshore wind. I think that it is on a, like a good, a good development trajectory, and there are certainly places on Earth where floating offshore is one of the most appealing technologies. You know, if you think of through to 2030s, 2040s, there’s plenty of places where, um, you know, slightly higher [00:09:00] price paid for floating offshore wind will still be worth it because they have so few other options available. So it makes sense as an industry to in- invest in capabilities there. Matthew Stead: think it’s a really interesting method. It seems to be really successful, the contract for di-difference approach. So, um, I’m, I’m surprised that it’s not adopted more widely, um, in other locations, Rosemary Barnes: it is around a bit. I would like to see it, like, in, in Australia, we are, we are developing some new wind projects, but not as fast as we need to, to, you know, hit our upcoming targets. And I think, like, while the government is doing some things to help move or help incentivize developers, it’s not working that well, and maybe CFD would be a, you know, a bit of a better way to, like, just actually guarantee that these projects are gonna go ahead. Allen Hall: Australia has a shipping problem. there’s been a concern at state-owned transport hubs are becoming less supportive of [00:10:00] wind energy projects with ACEN Renewables saying that they will now have to truck a large transformer from a wind project or for a wind project in northern New South Wales from the Port of Adelaide. That’s not necessarily close. And h- they also said that the Port of Brisbane has refused to accept passage of some big transformers for a solar farm. also there’s some, uh, something about blades not being able to be accepted in certain ports. Like some of the, uh, Australian state-managed or state-owned ports are not accepting renewables. Rosemary Barnes: I think also that blades in Queensland can only be transported to site like one per day with a full police escort or something. It’s wild to me ’cause, you know, like I lived in, in Denmark for so long and there were blades going up and down just the normal highway every single day, multiple like, uh, and three– they would go in sets of threes for obvious reasons. Um, yeah, but the, the, the [00:11:00] Queensland government changed like a, a year ago or, or so, and it changed to a very anti-renewables government and they just threw all of the state’s renewable plans in the bin, Allen Hall: such a recent change that when they, at least the news articles I’ve seen about it, I’ve only seen a handful, that they have, um, like last year some big transformers, like really difficult to move items have come through those ports and they’re just not letting them through now. How does that work? If you have a, a, a legal right to build a wind farm or a solar farm or, or substation or whatever’s going on there, how do they reconcile not allowing those components to come through a port? In what world does that make sense? Matthew Stead: I mean, most of the ports are– yeah, most of the ports are privatized, so it’s up to the individual commercial entity that’s running the port, I would, I would imagine. So it’s beyond the control of the government, would be my first guess. Yolanda Padron: it seems like it’s an, a federal sort of thing that would give permits. Matthew Stead: No, I mean, I’ve done a bit of work in the Port of Melbourne and, [00:12:00] um, it’s facilitated by the government, uh, state government, not federal, and but the ports are largely privatized. Rosemary Barnes: I just pulled up an article and it says that it’s state-owned transport hubs are becoming less supportive of wind energy projects. Um, yeah, and that’s the reason for why they’ll have to get that transformer in northern New South Wales, so very close to Queensland. They have to go from Adelaide, where you live, Matt, all the way through South Australia, maybe Victoria, New South Wales, and then, yeah, up to nearly the border. Allen Hall: Is that just a temporary blip that the next election cycle it’ll revert back or is this something that’s more long term? Rosemary Barnes: uh, it’s not obvious that it’s gonna flip straight back, that’s for sure Allen Hall: [00:13:00] for years, the race in wind has run mostly in one direction: bigger and bigger blades, bigger towers, bigger machines. And now a chief engineer f- at one of China’s largest turbine makers says it’s time to pump the brakes. Bo Juul Petersen, uh, Goldwind’s chief engineer in Denmark, argues that scaling turbines up no longer makes economic sense. So it’s not an engineering question, it’s an economic question. His reasoning rests on a simple rule of geometry, the square cube r- law, which says that as a turbine grows, its materials and costs climb faster than the rotor area that earns the revenue. Past a certain point, he says, bigger simply costs more than it makes. Have we crossed that threshold yet? Is 20 megawatts that, [00:14:00] uh, pivot point where it doesn’t make any more sense to make a larger turbine? Matthew Stead: didn’t we have problems when we went from three to six? Allen Hall: One to two. Matthew Stead: I, I, I think, uh, I think it’s good that someone’s actually coming out and saying this Yolanda Padron: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Rosie’s on the podcast. Rosemary Barnes: yeah, ex-excuse me, this is one of my topics of obsession that I constantly carry on about. I made a whole, a whole video about it with, um, equations to back up my opinions about scaling, um, and a very nifty tug of war metaphor between economic factors that favor big wind turbines and economic fav- factors that favor small ones. And I think that we’re always a little bit ahead of, of what the right, the right balance is between those. So, you know, the benefits from having bigger turbines are that, um, you have fewer electrical connections, for offshore especially, that means less subsea cables and, um, yeah, just like much faster Faster construction of all that, you [00:15:00] know, less, uh, substructures and less, less of everything to install, less of everything to maintain as well. You know, it doesn’t take so much longer to get up and do your annual maintenance checks of a big turbine compared to a small one. Like, it takes longer, but not, not that much longer. Um, but then all of the structural factors favor smaller turbines over bigger ones. blades especially, as they get longer, you get so many more problems in O&M, but they don’t show up on the developer’s spreadsheet, you know. The spreadsheet that you’re using to decide, um, your f- your final investment decision, it, it doesn’t, it doesn’t know that you’re gonna have a whole bunch of blade issues. It doesn’t wanna know and so I think that that’s one factor that has pushed us past the economic point of where wind turbine size should be. And I think the other thing is prestige. I know that when I worked at LM, you know, we had the longest blade in the world. It was 88 meters, was our first, um, world record that we set while I was working there. They’d had many before that. We had– They [00:16:00] had a, like, one-to-one scale printout of it that they took to WindEurope or WindHamburg, um, that everyone stood in front of, and then they lost it to somebody, and then they got it back again with the blade for the Halieade-X. And we all know how well that went to, you know, have the world’s longest blade. Y- you know, it wasn’t so easy to make it, turned out. It’s very easy to announce and not so easy to make, um, with reliable quality. And now we’ve got all these Chinese companies, especially MingYang, is constantly announcing the world’s biggest something. Um, don’t sell so many of them, but it’s not the point, isn’t to sell them, it’s to have the prestige of making the world’s biggest something. Allen Hall: Yeah, what would be the technology breakthrough that would allow it to be more stable at a 20 or 25 megawatt? Because right now I’m, I’m seeing 1% improvement here and there, not 5%, 10%. Rosemary Barnes: Yeah, I mean, 1% improvement will eventually add up to what, what you need. Maybe it’s in 20 years’ time, not 10 years’ time. But y- you know, like you can imagine anything. maybe [00:17:00] they start somehow, like aero and automotive manufacturing technologies get cheap enough that we can start making wind turbine blades with all prepregs instead of y- you know, um, you know, dry fabric and infusion. For example, maybe 3D printing gets cheap enough that you can make your whole, whole blade from an additive process. Like a- anything like that. But it can also be other things like maybe the cost of subsea cables in- increases like a whole lot, and then if, you know, like things on one side getting more expensive can make it more worthwhile to save hard problems somewhere else. So that’s why I say it’s like a, it’s a, a ve- it’s a multivariable optimization problem that changes every time you have a… Like for every project to project from year to year, it’s always gonna be slightly different. So I don’t think it’s wise to definitively say 20 megawatts is the threshold that we should never cross. Like I, I don’t agree with that. Allen Hall: It’s one of those arguments, I think, about [00:18:00] any sort of technology about where the endpoint is. There’s too many variables to predict it. I always point to aviation in which older airplanes will hang around and hang around and hang around until the fuel price goes up enough where it doesn’t make sense to operate them. So they will fly an airplane un-until they can no longer structurally do it. But if the price of oil shoots up and the price of aviation fuel bumps up, those airplanes get parked, and then they’re buying the new airplane with a more efficient engine. It’s a similar thing, I think. There’s just– You can’t tell where the technology’s gonna go or what the economic impacts of any part of that business will force you to do something different. So it’s gonna be higher than 20 megawatts, guarantee you that. Yolanda Padron: Well, it’s one of those things too, right? Where if we’re repeating the, the same blade type and we’re getting smarter about operating that same blade type, then the economic cost goes down, [00:19:00] right? Like, eventually. ‘Cause then you’re not just experimenting on every new thing or having to take all of the, the funding into tr- specializing techs or getting very specialized techs onto your site and finding a new– kind of the wheel every so often. [00:20:00] So speaking of larger wind turbines, evidently we’ve been doing this all wrong, that we’ve had the calculations for the, uh, Betz limit has been off, and, uh, a group of MIT engineers, I guess, uh, have, have made a breakthrough. Allen Hall: So basically every wind turbine that is spinning today is based on some fundamentals, uh, math, empirical data in, in some level, but on formulas that have led us to design the wind turbines and that core formula called the momentum theory. And if you hear blade designers who hang around blade designers, which I don’t necessarily recommend, but if you do hang around blade designers, they, they’ll say the momentum theory, momentum theory, like, “Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I got it.” It, it, the– MIT is saying it breaks down exactly at the operating point where modern turbines try to live. Um, so for a century the fix [00:21:00] was a patchwork of corrections and useful, but with no real theory behind them. Now, a team at MIT said it has rebuilt the math from first principles, creating what they call a unified momentum model. It even nudges at the famous Betz limit, the century-old ceiling on how much energy a rotor can capture, and it bumps it up by a few percentage points, and that would be the first uptick to the Betz limit in over 100 years. All right, Rosemary, as our official Betz limit expert, does this make any sense? Have the MIT folk something new? Rosemary Barnes: a wind turbine blade, its aerodynamics are just the same aerodynamics as what keeps an airplane in the sky, right? It’s, it’s all the… It’s just an airfoil. It’s just facing a wind speed, um, you know, a local wind speed. It’s complicated by the fact that [00:22:00] a wind turbine blade is also rotating, so the wind speed is different along the whole span, and that’s, uh– and so is the flow angle, and that’s why blades are twisted and tapered. Um, but you know, essentially when you wanna figure out how much energy, uh, a wind turbine is gonna generate or you wanna design the blade so that it optimizes that amount, you’re just slicing it up into a whole bunch of little bits of 2D flow, exactly the same as an, an airplane. So if it doesn’t work for wind turbines, then it shouldn’t work for airplanes either. So that’s one fundamental thing. And also at Betz limit, it’s not like it’s not driving design. It’s more like if you, if your design exceeds the Betz limit for a, um, a horizontal axis wind turbine, then you– it’s like a sanity check that you’ve done something wrong. Uh, that’s, that’s what I would say you would mostly use it for. Um, but what I don’t understand, and maybe Alan, presumably you did read the, read the research or at least the press [00:23:00] release. Are they arguing that y- um, like the tips of a wind turbine blade are rotating, are moving fast enough that it’s approaching transonic flow? ‘ Allen Hall: Yeah, it’s a rental number thing. Rosemary Barnes: there’s different types of aerodynamic equations depending on how fast the, airfoil’s moving. And my understanding is transonic is like 0.8 Mach, um, 0.8, which is 274 meters a second, which is more than double what, um, the fastest tip speeds are currently. So I would think that you’re not quite approaching that yet. They’re– It’s not like a cutoff that, you know, all of a sudden at that exact, exact speed the air behaves totally differently. But, um, y- yeah, like it seems far enough away that it’s not that relevant. But is that what they’re getting at or, or is it something different? Allen Hall: I like doing sanity checks when I read things from MIT. So what blade [00:24:00] manufacturers and/or wind turbine OEM has designed a set of blades and go, “Oh my gosh, we’re getting more energy than what we calculated,” and not thought to themselves, “Huh, maybe we should look into that”? It’s, it’s, it’s hilarious almost that all the engineers working in wind for 100 years wouldn’t have stumbled across this, where the turbine produces more power than the Betz limit would say it would. Y- Rosemary Barnes: yeah, as many people have commented on, you know, any one of my YouTube videos about wind turbine aerodynamics, if they would just put more blades in there, then, you know, less wind would just fly through without ever being, um, y- without ever hitting a blade. So, you know, like obviously wind turbine, uh, blade aerodynamics people are stupid because if they weren’t, then they would see that you just put more blades in and you get more, twice as many blades, twice as much energy and w- What about three times as many blades? Three times as much energy. And I [00:25:00] didn’t even go to MIT and that’s just, you know, like just brilliant Allen Hall: Obvious Rosemary Barnes: off the top of my head here. Allen Hall: it’s sort of ludicrous, honestly, and I see these things in wind occasionally. I see it more often in other areas, particularly aerospace, where, where you just have to go, “What are we spending time on? Really? We’re working on this? On a fraction of a percentage point that we may have a slight error in?” Like, it does not matter. What are you gonna do with that? Rosemary Barnes: there’s two issues. One is that the person writing up the press release is not the person that did the research, and they will always blow it up to be much more groundbreaking than the engineers who actually worked on it probably think it is. So, the, like, I think you have to, like, reserve your criticism of the work and try and criticize the press release. And then the second error that I commonly see is that people don’t have an un- good understanding of a status quo. So they think that they have smashed the status quo, but really it’s more to do with them not understanding the status quo than it is through [00:26:00] some legitimate, like, massive im- improvement. So it could well be that this is all very good and correct work, just with limited practical implication. That would be my most expected, um, from this. Allen Hall: Rosemary, how many times a month do you get queries about wind turbine improvements that are just physically impossible? Rosemary Barnes: Oh, I mean, if I read all of the comments on my YouTube channel, then probably quite, quite frequently. But, um, yeah, the most common one is just people thinking you can just add more blades and get a proportional increase in, um, in energy, you won’t get more power from adding more blades if that’s the only thing that you do, because in a well-designed wind turbine, which modern ones are, every, e- every air molecule that goes through the rotor disc is gonna interact with the, um, with, with a blade. That’s how it’s, it’s designed. The blades are moving really fast, and so every molecule doesn’t get hit, but, you know, every, every molecule is affected and has some energy extracted from it. Um, then the other thing is people [00:27:00]who think if you reduce drag, like if you can come up with a lower drag airfoil or a higher lift airfoil, then you think, they think that that relates to more energy proportionally. So they’re like, “Oh, this airfoil has twice as much lift, so it’s gonna be twice as much power.” It’s like, actually, you know, wind turbine designers are aware of the full range of, you know, airfoils that are available, including high lift ones, and they’re not using it because, you know, the same reason the airplane wings aren’t just, you know, like the highest, highest lift airfoil. Y- you know, it’s more of a lift to drag ratio type thing, and that’s true for wind turbine blades as well, but also there’s structural considerations probably more so in a wind turbine blade than there are in, um, in airplane wings. So, you know, there’s some sacrifices made for that. Um, yeah, but those are the two, two main families of, of mistakes that I’d say people make. Allen Hall: So Rosemary Barnes: Matt Allen Hall: up to his hand up for to MIT media representatives Matthew Stead: uh, I had a couple of sort of quick and simple points. The first of all, uh, I’m actually a graduate of [00:28:00] MIT. I’ve graduated from, uh, from a course at MIT. Um, so that’s the first thing. Um, not in engineering. Um, the next one is like, so what? I mean, we can’t even reliably measure, um, you know, AEP the other one is all models are wrong. Yolanda Padron: But not just wind Matthew Stead: the world is not perfect. All models are wrong, so trying to improve something that’s wrong, you know, might help a little bit, but does it really matter? Rosemary Barnes: But it is also the job of academics to improve these models. So there’s nothing wrong with MIT spending a lot of energy to, um, you know, improve on an incorrect model with another incorrect model. Uh, if it’s more useful, that’s great, and even if it’s not, like isn’t that the job of Matthew Stead: yeah. Matthew Stead: you should add to where it has the most impact on humanity. You should actually put the effort into areas that have a greater impact on pushing the boundary. You know, pushing small boundaries does not help the world Allen Hall: Matthew is an MIT graduate, [00:29:00] the one thing that Matthew brings to the table is real-world experience. And that if you shelter yourself inside a laboratory at MIT, and I understand why you would do that, because I’m sure it’s a very pleasant place to work, and there’s a lot of benefits to that. However, the way that MIT used to work back in the day, and not everything was roses then, but oh, okay, y- that people had industry experience. They had a knowledge of what was going on on the ground, and they were engineers, and they realized that formulas and reality don’t always align. And maybe we lost that somewhere in the ’80s and, or ’90s, but it does continue to be a problem, where back to Matthew’s point, if you’re going to use that amount of brain energy, put it to something that can help the world. This isn’t necessarily helping the world That wraps up another episode of the Uptime: Wind Energy podcast.

In this episode of Data in Biotech, host Ross Katz sits down with Woody Sherman, Founder and Chief Innovation Officer at PsiThera, for a conversation on why AI can transform drug discovery's paperwork and code while barely touching the hardest part of the problem: the molecules themselves. Woody's career runs through physical chemistry at MIT; over a decade at Schrödinger building tools the industry still relies on; founding Silicon Therapeutics (where his team took a small molecule STING agonist from concept to clinic in roughly three years); scaling that platform after Roivant's acquisition; and now leading PsiThera's effort to build oral small molecules for immunology targets that today are only reachable with injectable biologics. The conversation digs into why large language models excel at automation, coding, and regulatory writing but hit a wall when the task is predicting how a molecule behaves, what "physical AI" actually means as a category distinct from both LLMs and traditional physics-based simulation, and why representing molecules as quantum mechanical objects rather than text strings or 2D graphs changes what's predictable. Woody also walks through the STING program in detail, why the field's excitement over fast co-folding models like Boltz needs a strong dose of skepticism, and what it takes to build a database and team culture where chemists, biologists, and data scientists can actually understand each other. What you'll learn in this episode: >> Why the contradiction of "AI is transforming drug discovery" and "drugs still take a decade and billions of dollars" can both be true at once. >> How Silicon Therapeutics engineered a small molecule STING agonist to dimerize itself through a quantum mechanical interaction that had never been designed for before. >> What "physical AI" means as a new category built on embeddings from orbital-level, quantum mechanical representations of molecules, rather than language tokens or force-field simulations. >> Why molecular representation is the whole game: the limitations of SMILES strings and 2D graphs versus true 3D, quantum mechanical embeddings like PsiThera's Psiformer model >> Why a widely publicized claim of near-FEP-quality binding affinity at 1,000x the speed didn't hold up under scrutiny. >> How PsiThera captures not just simulation and wet lab data but human chemist judgment and reasoning as structured data, and why building a shared vocabulary across computational and experimental teams is as important as any model. Meet our guest: Woody Sherman, PhD, is Founder and Chief Innovation Officer at PsiThera, a biotechnology company designing oral small molecule drugs for immunology and inflammatory diseases, starting with the TNF superfamily. His career spans physical chemistry research at MIT, more than a decade at Schrödinger developing computational drug discovery tools, founding Silicon Therapeutics (acquired by Roivant), and leading the platform's evolution through PsiThera today. He has published more than 100 peer-reviewed papers spanning molecular dynamics, quantum mechanics, free energy simulations, and machine learning for drug design.

Originally Recorded on Friday June 5th and Wednesday June 10th, 2026 Happy Summer, fans! That Horror Show Podcast brings you a brand-new episode to keep you cool in this hot season. Those two dopes...er, we mean, those two hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig have been lounging by the pool and getting their tan on, but at the end of the day they are firm believers that "the show MUST go on" and fired-on their mics so they could talk about the two horror movies they watched. So, listen in as they review "Smile" (2022) and its sequel "Smile 2" (2024), both of which involve an evil entity that firmly believes in having perfect dental hygiene before killing you! And also, on the docket is none other than 'Nate's Corner' in which good ol' Nate reviews "Friday the 13th: Part 3" (1982) ...in 3D, but be forewarned his review can only be recorded in 2D!
Owner of one of the effortlessly sexy voices among male seiyuu, Takuya Sato is no stranger to singing in 2D music projects and even had his own solo career (and it was genuinely solid). However, something was missing in his singing that acappella music - and namely, the Aoppella franchise - unlocked for him in 2019.Since then, he has been a show stealer in all 2D music projects he is a part of.Music suggestions:- FYA'M "Think about U"- TRIGGER "Triple Down"- TRIGGER "SOL"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!
"It helps to see the bigger picture, to get out of your own sphere of interest. So it can be a good way to see different angles of your own industry.” Applied geoscience is becoming more connected as carbon management, geothermal, digital technology, near surface work, and traditional energy increasingly share the same tools, ideas, and challenges. Molly Turko and Edith Miller explain how IMAGE '26 is adapting to that shift while trying to serve both specialists and attendees exploring beyond their usual areas. They discuss how the event's hubs, pavilions, technical sessions, and shared spaces can help people find useful ideas without becoming overwhelmed by the size of the program. Learn more about IMAGE '26 and register today at https://www.imageevent.org/. KEY TAKEAWAYS > Integration is no longer the new idea. It is the expectation: Digital technology, carbon management, geothermal, oil and gas, and other disciplines are increasingly presented as parts of the same geoscience landscape rather than separate conversations. > A larger program is only useful if people can find their way through it: IMAGE '26 aims to give specialists enough content in areas such as geothermal, oil and gas, and emerging energy without leaving first time attendees overwhelmed by the number of choices. > The value extends beyond technical knowledge: Edith draws a distinction between the career case and the business case for attending. People can build relationships and discover new career directions while also bringing back ideas, technologies, and perspectives that improve their company's work.

Before we get to long lenses, we're going into lenses that are designed for portraits, it doesn't matter if you're talking headshots, couples, quarter length, these are amazing lenses that are far more versatile than what they're called. Today's criteria are focal lengths between 70mm and 200mm, although 200mm is pushing it for some photographers, but it's our show, and we set the rules. The lenses featured in today's episode include the DC-Nikkor 105mm f/2D, AI-S Nikkor 85mm f/2, AI-S Nikkor 105mm f/2.5, Zuiko 100mm f/2.8, Takumar 85mm f/1.9, Canon 100mm f/2, AF-S Nikkor 85mm f/1.4G and AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G.
How can architecture firms unlock decades of buried institutional knowledge, and what happens to the apprenticeship model when every detail the firm has ever drawn is just a single query away?In this bonus episode of Practice Disrupted, host Evelyn Lee dives into a conversation created with Pirros, exploring how technology bridges the gap between historic firm data and daily production workflows. The episode features Ross Wagner, who leads sales at Pirros, alongside Xander Ellenbogen, a senior BIM manager at Clark Nexsen. Together, they explore how firms can transition from hunting through endless subfolders to operating with an intelligent, centralized knowledge base.Ross shares his trajectory from designing high-rise residential projects to riding the technology wave at PlanGrid and Autodesk, eventually joining Pirros to help firms maximize their workflow efficiency. Xander provides an on-the-ground perspective from Clark Nexsen, discussing his evolution from a traditional architect and the firm's first commercial drone pilot to managing advanced BIM workflows. He explains how his firm used Pirros to adapt to a post-COVID, discipline-based model, allowing team members across multiple offices and states to access vetted, high-quality details instantaneously.The conversation digs deeply into the broader implications of AI in the AECO space, specifically addressing the common comparison to the historical CAD-to-BIM shift. While the CAD-to-BIM transition still resulted in flat 2D drawing deliverables, the guests argue that AI represents a fundamentally different leap focused on data portability and knowledge preservation across an entire firm. They also tackle the crucial element of change management in a trust-driven profession, outlining the "sandwich effect" required to achieve widespread software adoption from leadership down to production staff."We're not here to flatten creativity and just be a place where you copy and paste. It's a place where you learn, you mentor, but also ensure that you don't go through the tedious tasks of reinventing the wheel each time and basically spend a bunch of hours hunting for something that you are trying to learn from." - Ross WagnerFinally, they look ahead to the future of design with recent tools like Mira, a Revit agentic copilot, and discuss how firms can maintain the critical thinking required in the traditional apprenticeship model while letting AI do the tedious heavy lifting.GuestsRoss Wagner, Assoc. AIA, began his career in architecture before moving into design technology, where he helped scale PlanGrid from under $10M to over $100M in ARR before its acquisition by Autodesk. Now Head of Sales at Pirros, he helps AECO firms improve productivity by transforming historical design content into trusted, accessible knowledge.Xander Ellenbogen, AIA, is a licensed architect and Senior BIM Manager at Clark Nexsen, where he leads BIM standards, Revit workflows, and reality capture initiatives across the firm. With a background spanning architectural design and BIM leadership, he is currently directing a firmwide template rebuild as part of the JMT merger while continuing to serve as an Associate Principal.This episode is especially for you if:✅You want to understand how Pirros captures a firm's historical work into an intelligent, AI-based search engine to prevent team members from redrawing existing details.✅ You are curious about the "sandwich effect" in change management and how to secure software buy-in from both firm leadership and production staff.✅ You want to explore why the CAD-to-BIM shift failed to move past 2D deliverables and how the AI shift focuses on data portability instead.✅ You want to learn how firms can preserve the traditional apprenticeship model by using AI to handle 70% of the baseline work while keeping designers focused on the remaining 30% of critical problem-solving.✅ You are interested in the potential of agentic workflows in Revit, such as Pirros' recently released chatbot copilot, Mira.What have you done to take action lately?

“It's hard to tell where the limit is in terms of where it can go. You have to see what is possible to want to drive this.” Andrew Geary speaks with Malc Kent about why distributed acoustic sensing is gaining momentum across carbon storage, geothermal, infrastructure, and reservoir monitoring. The technology can collect enormous amounts of subsurface data, but the bigger challenge is turning that information into decisions industries trust. For geophysicists and students, that gap between technical progress and real-world adoption is where many of the strongest opportunities are emerging. KEY TAKEAWAYS > DAS can change how the subsurface is monitored: Permanent or existing fiber can support more frequent observations while reducing the need to repeatedly deploy conventional equipment. > The technology may be moving faster than industry adoption: Large data volumes, installation costs, regulatory acceptance, and confidence in a new way of collecting seismic information still stand between successful trials and routine use. > The opportunity extends well beyond oil and gas: Carbon storage, geothermal, mining, infrastructure, and security all need better monitoring, creating new roles for geophysicists who can connect sensing, imaging, computing, and decisions.

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels. We're got the full crew in the house once again this week, and a whole bunch of gaming goodies to discuss (per usual), so let's get right into it... Randall gets things started off with an update on his time with Twilight Princess HD, where he's been continuing to make steady progress while playing through the game with his daughter on the weekends! John takes things from there, as he gets started off with his first impressions on the recently released Mina the Hollower from the folks at Yacht Club Games — before ultimately digging into his love/hate relationship with Destiny 2. Finally, Kevin closes things out with some first impressions of his own, after firing up the demo for Marsupilami 2: Salsa Palombia — a somewhat unexpected sequel to one of his favorite 2D platformers in recent memory.

In this episode, we chat with Andrew Hume, Managing Director of Thor Energy, a company operating at the crossroads of critical minerals exploration, natural hydrogen, and the evolving energy transition. We revisit Andrew's career journey and discuss what motivated him to leave the major energy company environment to lead a junior exploration company. We'll explore the challenges of transitioning from oil and gas into mining, how Thor Energy is positioning itself within the rapidly changing energy landscape, and the progress being made across its project portfolio, including the flagship HY-Range natural hydrogen project. We'll also take a closer look at the growing interest in natural hydrogen, its potential role in the global energy mix, and whether it could emerge as a significant new commodity class. Finally, Andrew shares insights into how Thor is combining techniques from both the mining and oil and gas industries, the role of AI in exploration, and some of the key lessons he's learned throughout his career. This episode is brought to you by Mining International, a global executive search partner to the mining industry. For bespoke search and advisory services, please visit www.mining-international.org Download this free whitepaper to uncover how ExxonMobil is redefining strategic approaches to energy transition in the mining sector: https://bit.ly/wp-mining-forward-lower-emission-mining-operations KEY TAKEAWAYS Thor Energy successfully integrates traditional mining techniques with oil and gas exploration methodologies to unlock complex transition commodities. Recent shallow geochemical evaluations at the flagship HY Range project revealed an impressive 3% natural hydrogen enhancement in the soil. Thor has partnered with Velseis to initiate a 2D seismic program in late Q3 or early Q4 to map out subsurface structures for future drilling targets. As a lean operator, the company leverages AI tools for advanced data pattern recognition to dramatically increase exploration efficiency and optimise workflows. BEST MOMENTS "We're looking at some of the commodities that sit in between. The intersection of oil and gas exploration, conventional mineral exploration, and equally for development and production." "The headline figure is that we, in one location, we find 3% natural hydrogen in the soil. It really gives us a lot of hope and it really speaks and is a soft clue to the potential volumes." "If you can find natural hydrogen close to mine sites, this allows you to use the hydrogen as an energy source when you oxidise, when you burn hydrogen, you produce water. It's the ultimate clean power." "When you're given opportunities, I recommend everyone to explore. Life's too short."

We are thrilled to welcome Chicago-based interior designer Sarah Vaile to the podcast! Known for her bold use of color, fresh traditional style, and making classic spaces feel lively, Sarah has built an incredible coast-to-coast design firm. After pivoting from a corporate advertising career in her late 20s, she trained under industry icon Celerie Kemble before striking out on her own. Sarah sits down with Caroline, Taryn, and Liz to tackle one of interior design's absolute trickiest topics: scale. She shares her brilliant real-world hacks for testing furniture volume before you buy, why she loves wall-to-wall "sofa drenching" in tight spaces, and how to layout a dual-purpose office and guest room to conquer the dreaded "zoom gloom." Quick Decorating Takeaways: Scale is All About Visual Volume: Scale isn't just about simple dimensions; it's the balance of shapes, pattern, and mass in a room. When mixing antique and modern pieces, keep an eye on mass—newer furniture skews much larger ("California scale"), which can easily swallow up older heirloom items. Get Physical in Your Space: Don't rely solely on 2D digital layouts. To build confidence before hitting buy, physically map out a room using blue painter's tape on the floor, arrange empty cardboard boxes to test physical height, or tape a 1-to-1 paper cutout of a light fixture straight to the wall. Try "Sofa Drenching" in Small Rooms: Don't automatically buy a tiny love seat just because a room is tight. Small spaces can actually handle a giant sofa wrapped wall-to-wall. By making the entire room about the seating, you create an incredibly cozy, enveloping, and high-drama jewel box. Don't Get Stranded on "Rug Island": A common design trap is placing a floating area rug in the dead center of a room with all your furniture pushed completely off it. To bridge your hard floors with your texturing, ensure your seating "straddles" both worlds by keeping their front feet on the rug and their back feet off. Banish the Zoom Gloom: Dark colors like navy blue can throw an unflattering, shadowed cast on your face during computer calls. When designing a home office space, look for bright, invigorating colors that act like a flattering backdrop—think pistachios, corals, or soft apricots.

The Pencil Pushers podcast interviews stop-motion animator/director Justin Rasch, who has worked for 30 years across games, TV, and film, including ParaNorman, Kubo and the Two Strings, and Guillermo del Toro's Oscar-winning Pinocchio, and now directs/writes/supervises at Stump Puppet Pictures while sharing process online. Rasch recounts growing up in Florida inspired by comics, classic cartoons, Secret of NIMH, and practical effects artists, studying 2D and effects at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, then switching to CG after Jurassic Park. He describes breaking in by portfolio-hunting in 1990s LA, choosing Konami, and later leading animation at Luxoflux on projects like Shrek and True Crime: Streets of LA. Rasch explains how animation principles transfer across 2D/CG/stop motion, details his stop-motion workflow (blocking, shooting on twos, then final on ones), discusses why stop motion is hard to "control," and reflects on AI, audience interest in process, and working with Travis Knight and del Toro. He shares where to find him on Instagram and YouTube.

[Digital Gonzo 2011] Another archival show from my early days, but one that is good enough to be re-released without re-editing. Toy Story 2 was originally begun as a straight-to-VHS sequel, and then-CEO of Disney Michael Eisner was fine with it being done in cheap, 2D animation, similar to Aladdin II: The Return of Jafar, The Hunchback of Notre Dame II and of course the unforgettable (and tasteful) Pocahontas II: Journey to the New World. Pixar undertook the challenge of making this themselves and at a certain point mid-way through production proposed that it be a full theatrical release with a higher budget. The result is still many people's favourite of the series, bringing in complexity and serious decisions for toys that fear for their own existance. Once again Daniel and I, (here accompanied by Nikki Taylor) delved into the making and execution of this evolving elaboration, which in so many ways represents what Pixar at its best could reach for.

In this episode of Data in Biotech, host Ross Katz sits down with Paul Finn, Chief Scientific Officer at Oxford Drug Design, for a conversation on what it actually takes to find a drug molecule that works not just on paper but also in the lab, in the cell, and, ultimately, in the clinic. Paul brings four decades of experience across what became GSK, Pfizer, and a series of Oxford-area spinouts and has shepherded a compound all the way to a marketed drug. That perspective gives him a particular kind of skepticism toward AI results that look too good to be true because he's done the work of checking whether they are. The conversation moves through synthesizability as a first-class constraint, why chemistry has proven so much harder for AI than biology, how 3D molecular representation gets closer to the physics that actually matters, and what rigorous multi-parameter optimization looks like when you're trying to kill cancer cells and drug-resistant bacteria at the same time. What you'll learn in this episode: >> Why synthesizability is chronically underestimated and why changing a single atom in a structure can take a molecule from trivially easy to make to practically impossible >> How Oxford Drug Design constrains the generative search to reaction schemes and purchasable building blocks, and why that chemical space is still so vast that novelty is not meaningfully sacrificed >> Why most generative AI models learn from a 2D string representation of a molecule; two steps removed from the 3D physics that govern how a drug actually binds to its target >> How Bayesian optimization over reagent space, rather than molecular space, allows an active learning loop to focus on the structural patterns associated with activity >> Why benchmarking complex models against simple ones is the discipline that exposes false correlations and why Paul and his co-authors were able to recover the Halicin result using methods decades older than deep learning >> What a pharma company should actually ask an AI drug discovery vendor before buying what they're selling Meet our guest: Paul Finn is Chief Scientific Officer at Oxford Drug Design, a computational drug discovery company with roots in Oxford's chemistry department. His career spans over 40 years of computational drug discovery, from early structure-activity modeling in the 1980s through to modern generative AI methods, with deep experience at what became GSK and Pfizer before moving into the Oxford spinout ecosystem. At Oxford Drug Design, Paul leads internal programs in oncology and antibacterial resistance, combining novel computational methods with a rigorous, synthesizability-first approach to multi-parameter optimization.

He explains the strengths and limitations of current screening strategies, reviews the recommendations from major medical organizations, and discusses why screening guidance can often seem confusing or contradictory. Peter outlines a practical framework for understanding breast cancer risk and personalizing screening decisions, including when to begin screening, how frequently to screen, and which imaging modalities may be most appropriate based on an individual's risk profile. Throughout the episode, he emphasizes that while population-based guidelines provide an important foundation, optimizing outcomes requires a more personalized approach aimed at helping women make informed screening decisions that can improve the chances of early detection and successful treatment. We discuss: Why women still die from breast cancer: the benefits of screening, the problem of under-screening, and the need for risk-based screening strategies [1:45]; Current screening recommendations, why they differ between organizations, and the importance of personalized screening decisions [6:30]; A framework for personalizing screening [8:45]; Assessing baseline breast cancer risk: genetics, family history, breast density, lifestyle factors, and the role of risk calculators in personalized screening [9:30]; Balancing cancer detection and false positives: how breast cancer risk influences screening intensity and imaging choices [17:45]; Mammography as the foundation of breast cancer screening: detecting ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and the advantages of 3D versus 2D mammography [21:00]; MRI for high-risk women: the benefits of supplemental screening, abbreviated MRI, and the emerging role of contrast-enhanced mammography [23:00]; The role of ultrasound: supplemental cancer detection, diagnostic evaluation, and limitations compared with mammography and MRI [26:00]; Choosing the right breast cancer screening strategy: imaging modality selection, screening hierarchies, and the importance of imaging center quality [28:00]; How often should you screen for breast cancer? [30:15]; At what age should you start screening? [37:30]; Breast cancer in younger women: aggressive tumor biology, BRCA-related risk, breast density, and individualized decisions about when to begin screening [41:45]; Inflammatory breast cancer, the limitations of screening mammography for symptomatic disease, and the importance of promptly evaluating new breast symptoms in both women and men [44:45]; From risk assessment to personalized screening: a practical framework for reducing breast cancer mortality through earlier and more effective detection [46:30]; and More.

In questo episodio di Educare con calma affronto il tema dei videogiochi e di come introdurli in famiglia con consapevolezza e gradualità. Lo faccio con il supporto di Giulia Dall'Aglio, la nostra persona di riferimento per il benessere digitale, attraverso un estratto di una diretta su La Tela in cui abbiamo riflettuto insieme su paure, limiti e potenzialità legate ai videogiochi.Parto dalla mia esperienza personale con Oliver ed Emily e parliamo di ciò che dicono studi e ricerche sui benefici del digitale: i videogiochi, se scelti e accompagnati con cura, possono diventare uno strumento interessante per sviluppare soft skills e competenze come problem solving, creatività, pensiero critico, autonomia e fiducia in sé. Possono anche aprire spazi di relazione e condivisione. Approfondiamo anche i possibili rischi: dall'importanza di aspettare il più possibile prima di introdurre i videogiochi – scegliendo poi contenuti adatti all'età – fino al tema della frustrazione, dei limiti e di come accompagnarli senza trasformarli in terreno di conflitto. Condividiamo infine alcuni spunti pratici per una preparazione più consapevole all'introduzione dei videogiochi in famiglia.:: I punti salienti dell'episodio:00:00 Introduzione e benvenuto01:25 La mia esperienza con Oliver ed Emily02:20 I benefici dei videogiochi03:50 Rischi e giochi adatti04:53 Consigli sui primi videogiochi07:26 Perché è meglio iniziare con i videogiochi 2D?09:40 Prerequisiti e tolleranza alla frustrazione11:16 Quando è troppo presto13:36 Come introdurli in famiglia14:37 Perché è importante proporre più varietà di videogiochi18:35 Riflessioni finali e saluti:: Potete trovare Giulia:su La Tela (nel servizio 1-a-1 e in tanti contenuti);sul suo sito;sul suo podcast;su Instagram.:: Nell'episodio menziono:L'abbonamento a Tutta La TelaTrovi i contenuti relazionati a questo episodio nella pagina del podcast su latela.com/podcast: cerca il numero o scrivi il titolo nella lente di ricerca.:: Come appoggiare il podcastIo non faccio pubblicità e non accetto sponsor: fa parte della mia etica dal giorno in cui ho creato La Tela.
