In this episode of FYI – For Your Innovation, Brett Winton and ARK analyst Nemo Despot sit down with Generate Biomedicines CEO Mike Nally and CFO Jason Silvers to explore how generative AI is transforming the discovery and development of protein-based therapeutics. Founded in 2018 by Flagship Pioneering, Generate Biomedicines is building a “self-driving lab” that combines machine learning, cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), and high-throughput wet lab automation to dramatically accelerate drug development. The conversation dives into how Generate is reimagining protein therapeutics — going beyond trial-and-error methods to a data-first, design-driven model for creating novel medicines. The team discusses the company's proprietary approach to integrating structural biology with functional data, the economic implications of reducing time-to-market from 13 years to under 9, and how their platform could unlock treatments for diseases that have been historically undruggable. They also touch on strategic partnerships, scalability, and how AI is shifting the biotech business model from artisanal science to an industrialized, data-driven enterprise.Key Points From This Episode:00:01:30 Why Generate Biomedicines is rethinking protein drug discovery from first principles00:04:40 How their structure-first approach differs from peers like AbSci and Recursion00:07:04 Using cryo-EM to build proprietary protein interaction datasets00:10:57 Traditional drug discovery is random, expensive, and inefficient — here's how Generate is changing that00:16:58 From concept to clinic in 18–24 months: Accelerating timelines through AI00:20:47 Going beyond efficiency: Unlocking access to undruggable biology00:24:48 Turning cryo-EM into a high-throughput data engine for model training00:31:20 The long-term vision: Patient-specific protein therapeutics00:40:00 Why scalability gives Generate an edge over traditional biotech00:47:52 The future of biotech as a research & development (R&D) sharing economy00:54:19 Adapting fast: Keeping pace with generative AI advances across the stack01:00:16 The KPI (key performance indicator) for platform success: Rate of improvement

In this episode, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Christian Drapeau, neurophysiology scientist and stem cell pioneer, to explore the fascinating world of plant-based stem cell activation and regenerative medicine.

China plans to accelerate the availability of tax refund stores for eligible overseas visitors to about 10,000 shops nationwide this year, almost tripling the current number, as the country continues to boost inbound tourism and consumption, a senior official said.商务部高层官员表示，中国计划加速扩大面向符合条件境外旅客的退税商店覆盖范围，预计今年内将全国范围内的退税商店增至约1万家，这几乎是目前规模的三倍，此举旨在持续提振入境旅游和消费复苏。By the end of last year, China had more than 3,700 stores nationwide available for tax refunds for overseas visitors, adding more than 600 stores over the previous year, the Ministry of Commerce said.商务部表示截至去年底，全国已开设可办理境外旅客退税业务的商店逾3700家，较上年新增600余家。Promoting inbound consumption serves as an important lever to help vigorously boost consumption, and it holds great growth potential. It will also help offset the impact of additional tariffs to a certain extent, said Sheng Qiuping, vice-minister of commerce, during a conference on Thursday in Beijing.商务部副部长盛秋平周四在北京举行的会议上指出，促进入境消费是大力提振消费的重要支点，这一领域蕴藏着巨大的增长潜力。同时他强调，推动入境消费将在一定程度上对冲加征关税政策带来的影响。China will continue to optimize the layout of tax refund stores, encourage various regions to set up such stores in major commercial complexes, shopping streets, tourist attractions, resorts, cultural and museum venues, airports, passenger ports, hotels and other places where overseas tourists gather, according to a guideline issued by the Ministry of Commerce and five other departments in late April.根据商务部等六个部门四月末联合印发的指导意见，我国将持续优化退税商店的布局，鼓励各地在境外游客集中的核心商业区、特色商街、旅游景区、度假区、文博场馆、口岸枢纽、酒店住宿等重点场所增设退税网点。The country has lowered the starting point for tax refunds from 500 yuan ($69.3) to 200 yuan and doubled the limit for cash refunds from 10,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan.国家将单笔退税起退门槛从500元（约69.3美元）降至200元，现金退税额上限从1万元提升至2万元。In addition, the country will relax the registration requirements for retailers to become tax refund stores, allowing newly opened shops that have been established for less than a year to apply to become tax refund shops, and the filing time has been shortened to within five working days, the guideline said.指导意见特别明确放宽商户准入条件：新设不满一年的店铺可申请成为退税商店，备案流程缩短至5个工作日内。"Tax refund stores are also encouraged to broaden product offerings to include time-honored brands, renowned Chinese consumer goods, smart devices, intangible cultural heritage items, crafts and specialty products," Sheng said.盛秋平副部长还表示，将鼓励退税商店丰富商品品类，重点拓展老字号、国潮精品、智能设备、非遗产品、手工艺品及特色商品等多元品类。Globally, Japan has more than 60,000 stores that are available for tax refunds for overseas visitors, and South Korea has some 20,000 such stores. France, Germany and Italy each have over 10,000 such stores. The number of such stores in China is far from enough, the Ministry of Commerce said.全球范围内，日本拥有超6万家境外旅客退税商店，韩国约2万家，法德意等国均超1万家。商务部坦言，我国现有退税商店规模与国际水平仍存显著差距。Last year, total expenditure of inbound tourists in China reached $94.2 billion, accounting for 0.5 percent of China's GDP, which is lower than the proportions of 1 percent to 3 percent for major countries in the world, said the commerce ministry.商务部数据显示，去年中国入境游客消费总额达942亿美元，占国内生产总值(GDP)的0.5%，这一比例低于全球主要国家1%-3%的占比水平。"Accelerating the promotion of the tax refund policy will help reduce shopping costs for overseas travelers and inject new impetus to boost consumption. This is an important measure for China to cope with external uncertainties," Sheng said.商务部副部长盛秋平表示：“加速推进退税政策落地见效，将有效降低境外旅客购物成本，为提振消费注入新动能。这是中国应对外部环境不确定性的重要举措。”China has been opening its doors wider to international travelers. In 2024, the country expanded its unilateral visa-free policy to include 38 countries, allowing visits of up to 30 days, according to the National Immigration Administration.中国持续扩大对外开放，国家移民管理局数据显示，2024年我国单方面免签政策覆盖国已扩展至38个，相关国家公民可享受最长30天的免签停留待遇。Multiple favorable policies have helped significantly boost inbound consumption. During the recent five-day May Day holiday, the country saw the number of inbound and outbound passenger trips of foreign visitors exceed 1.1 million, up 43.1 percent year-on-year, said the National Immigration Administration.多重利好政策有效激活入境消费市场。国家移民管理局通报称，在刚刚过去的“五一”五天假期期间，全国出入境外籍人员数量突破110万人次，同比大幅增长43.1%。Shanghai, one of the cities with the highest concentration of foreign tourists, said inbound consumption has become an important lever for it to actively respond to the trade frictions between China and the United States, and promoting inbound consumption will help the city to build itself into an international consumption center.作为境外游客集聚度最高的城市之一，上海表示发展入境消费已成为其积极应对中美贸易摩擦的重要抓手。该市强调，推动入境消费提质升级将有力支撑其建设国际消费中心城市的战略目标。inbound tourism入境游tax refund退税time-honored brands老字号品牌visa-free免签impetus/ˈɪmpɪtəs/n. 动力;推动

Accelerating the use of clean energy technologies like solar panels and electric vehicles is essential to meet global climate goals. But doing so will require dramatically increasing the global supply of copper, cobalt, lithium and graphite that play critical roles in the production of solar cells, magnets for turbines, and EV batteries. And a significant way to get those materials is through mining. That poses a potential risk to nature. In order to better understand that risk and develop strategies to balance the deployment of renewable energy infrastructure with the conservation of natural habitats, WWF commissioned a new study on the impact of mining for energy transition minerals on nature globally. In this episode of Nature Breaking, host Seth Larson interviews Colin Meehan, WWF's senior director for renewable energy transitions. Colin led the development of this new study, and he shares key insights about the choices we need to make to meet global climate goals while also keeping nature intact and protecting communities.

As independently owned and operated small businesses, fast-food restaurant franchisees have unique business needs. They have mobile and often part-time workforces, complex inventory management and the constant challenge of managing both a small business and being the face of a major brand. On the latest episode of the ABA Banking Journal Podcast — sponsored by Bix2x — Wendell Bontrager talks about how Sonata Bank is working with this unique market segment. For example, “we can come in at fractional costs to provide them things like telehealth, mobile phone insurance, pet insurance, in a way that is free to the employee but is done and sold through the franchisee,” says Bontrager. He outlines Sonata's business of lending to “quick-service” restaurants, as they're often called in the trade, paired with employee benefits, treasury management and a software-as-a-service platform for QSRs. Bontrager also talks about the health of the Nashville, Tennessee, market where Sonata's community bank franchise is headquartered and how the organization has been able to capture talent with hybrid and remote workplace offerings.

Gresham Harkless reflects on Day 56 of his Franchise Broker journey, noting the emotional weight of the process despite having zero sales so far.   He's been engaging with candidates and recently had a promising conversation with a Google Ads lead, emphasizing the importance of building rapport and treating these talks like podcast interviews—conversational, yet intentional.   Gresham also shares a personal pivot: he's pausing his weekly inspirational text messages, which included Bible verses, due to limited feedback and the need to reevaluate.   He acknowledges the challenge of releasing old habits and digital clutter but emphasizes regular review and de-cluttering as essential for growth.

In this episode of the Chase Life Podcast, Rachel and David Godfrey reveal the deeper reasons high-performing women struggle with consistency in health, fitness, and life. It's not your calendar. It's not your to-do list. It's your identity. If you've ever felt like no system is “the system” that will help you stay in shape year-round, or that you're always just one launch, one crisis, one deadline away from dropping your standards—this episode is your mirror. Rachel and David break down two of the biggest patterns sabotaging high achievers: The Human Doing: Tying your self-worth to how productive you are. Completion Addiction: Obsessing over getting things finished before you “deserve” to rest, eat, or live your life. They share how these patterns played out in their own careers, what really changed things, and why most people confuse perfectionism with high standards (spoiler: they're not the same thing). You'll also learn: Why your “flow state” might be bullsh*t How Rachel launched the ONYX app without burning out The one concept that separates A-players from overwhelmed overachievers Parenting, productivity, and finding the sweet spot between ambition and presence Why most people delay their goals in the name of being "smart"... and just end up stuck This episode is for the woman who's done with the excuses, the stress addiction, and the all-or-nothing mindset—and is ready to win across every area of life.

Stéphane Timpano is CEO of ASPIRE, the program management and business development arm of the Advanced Technology Research Council located in Abu Dhabi. The ATRC's mission is to build a vibrant research and development ecosystem that supports Abu Dhabi—and the broader UAE—in its transformation into a knowledge-based economy. With nearly 1,000 employees representing over 70 nationalities, the Council is also investing in the next generation of innovators through a wide range of STEM initiatives. ASPIRE drives the Council's programmatic efforts by crowdsourcing top global talent through international competitions and grand challenges.

He brings more than 15 years of management consulting experience, including major transformation initiatives at Bain & Company in Dubai and Nigeria.

They clinched the AI Grand Challenge with their drone completing two laps of the 170-metre course in just 17 seconds. MavLab won the world's first AI-only drag race, demonstrating straight-line speed and precision under intense acceleration.  And in a landmark moment, MavLab's autonomous drone defeated three top DCL champion pilots in a head-to-head AI-versus-human showdown. With precision flying, the AI-powered drone edged out its human-piloted rivals in thrilling contests.  In this episode of the Drone Radio Show, Stéphane shares insights into ASPIRE's mission, the rise of autonomous racing challenges, and the broader impact these competitions can have across technology, education, and industry.

Over the weekend, the Trump administration issued calls for Iran to give up its entire nuclear program "or else." National Security Senior Advisor Mike Waltz stated, "If [Iran] had nuclear weapons, the entire Middle East would explode in an arms race." Tensions between Iran and Washington have continued to grow since Hamas and Hezbollah launched attacks on Israel over the years. General Jack Keane, retired 4-star general, the chairman of the Institute for the Study of War, and FOX News Senior Strategic Analyst, joins to discuss why Iran has never been more vulnerable, the Israel-Hamas conflict, and the war in Ukraine. In the past few weeks, Tesla cars, charging stations, and dealerships have become the targets of shootings and explosives, all in the name of denouncing Elon Musk and his involvement in DOGE. The Trump administration is taking action, with the U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi warning those participating in this “wave of domestic terrorism” against Tesla properties that “the Department of Justice will put you behind bars.” Former federal prosecutor Andrew Cherkasky weighs in on the legal definition of the Tesla attacks and what constitutes domestic terror.  Plus, commentary from FOX News contributor Joe Concha.
