LEXINGTON, Ky. (July 18, 2025) – Each year in the U.S., more than 350,000 people experience sudden cardiac arrest outside of a hospital. Survival in these moments depends on two critical factors: immediate bystander response and access to life-saving technology. Yet in many communities—especially in rural or under-resourced areas—those tools remain out of reach. At the heart of the solution is the automated external defibrillator, or AED. Small, portable, and easy to use, AEDs can drastically increase the odds of surviving cardiac arrest when paired with prompt CPR. But despite their effectiveness, these devices are still missing in far too many schools, offices, churches, and public spaces across Kentucky and the nation. On this episode of Behind the Blue, we speak with Dr. Shaun Mohan, an electrophysiologist and medical director of Project ADAM at Kentucky Children's Hospital. Dr. Mohan discusses the mission to expand AED access through education and grassroots community partnerships, and how programs like Project ADAM are working to certify schools as "Heart Safe"—ensuring that faculty, staff, and even students are trained and ready to respond in the moments that matter most.  ‘Behind the Blue' is available via a variety of podcast providers, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-19, 2025: Dr. Dawn presents the VITAL study evidence showing 2,000 IU daily vitamin D prevents telomere shortening in immune cells, effectively slowing biological aging by three years. Groundbreaking mouse research reveals maternal iron deficiency can alter fetal sex development. When iron levels dropped 60%, the SYR gene controlling male development switched off, causing 6 of 39 XY offspring to develop ovaries instead of testes. Thus, mammalian sex can be influenced by environmental factors just like in amphibians and fish. Dr. Dawn connects this to gender identity questions, advocating supporting puberty blockers based on their 30-year safety record. Dr. Dawn advocates widespread CPR and AED training after describing a successful Buffalo airport rescue. With 350,000 annual out-of-hospital cardiac arrests and 90% fatality rates, immediate AED intervention can triple survival odds. She promotes the Pulsepoint app registering 185,000 AEDs and praises countries like Norway achieving 90% population CPR training through driver's license requirements. Post-Roe v. Wade data shows vasectomies doubled in men aged 19-26 while tubal ligations rose 70%, mostly in abortion-ban states. Dr. Dawn notes the irony that policies intended to increase births prompted widespread voluntary sterilization. Environmental concerns from January 2025 Moss Landing battery fire and LA wildfires highlight toxic contamination from burning lithium, plastics, and building materials. She advocates fire-resistant landscaping and home hardening, noting some fire-resistant homes survived while surroundings burned. British research shows pet ownership provides life satisfaction equivalent to $90,000 annual income boost. Dr. Dawn experiences this firsthand, noting pets provide family-like benefits without complex interpersonal dynamics. Sleep study reveals 15 minutes additional nightly sleep improves cognitive performance in tweens. Children sleeping 7.25 versus 7.10 hours showed better academics and larger brain volumes, though Dr. Dawn questions causation versus correlation. Mayo Clinic identified Interleukin-23 as a reliable cellular senescence biomarker across multiple tissues. Natural compounds like quercetin, fisetin, and luteolin can reduce these aging markers, supporting her dietary supplementation philosophy.

Dr. Ken Horowitz, assistant professor of physical education, emphasizes the effectiveness of chest compressions, which keep oxygen flowing until paramedics arrive. Students also learn to use automated external defibrillators (AEDs), with 69 AEDs available across campus. The American Heart Association supports chest-only CPR, which can boost survival rates from 10% to over 40% when performed immediately during cardiac arrest. Many trained students and staff have successfully applied these skills in real emergencies. STORY 3: Bird Brains — Georgia Gwinnett College students learn scientific thinking thanks to their feathered friends Georgia Gwinnett College students in an experimental methods class study birds to learn scientific methodology and analyze environmental data. Led by biology instructors Maria Fernandez and Dr. Mia Malloy, students observe, listen for, and band birds to assess biodiversity and the effects of urbanization in Gwinnett County. Birds serve as bioindicators of environmental health, with some species thriving in urban areas while others decline. The hands-on research, conducted at GGC’s campus, Collins Hill Park, and Harbins Park, helps students gain confidence in fieldwork and critical thinking. Findings are presented at semester’s end, with some students developing a passion for bird studies. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.
