Do you have dry eyes—but not sure if it's hormonal or just aging? Wearing glasses but hoping to reverse your near- or far-sightedness naturally? Curious whether HRT, Lasik, or something else is the best option to protect your eyes from macular degeneration and cataracts? Then this episode is for you. Like many women, I started noticing changes in my eyesight in my 40s.

The Indian billionaire speaks to Rahul Tandon about his journey from selling sim cards in a small Indian town to founding OYO, a global hospitality chain, at just 19. A fellowship from US entrepreneur Peter Thiel gave Ritesh Agarwal $100,000 to pursue his start-up dreams. Despite rapid growth, OYO later faced serious challenges to its business. Now 31, the entrepreneur reflects on how he brought the company back from the brink.If you'd like to contact the show, send an email to businessdaily@bbc.co.ukPresenter: Rahul Tandon Producer: Amber Mehmood(Photo: Ritesh Agarwal, founder and chief executive officer of OYO Hotels and Homes, during the Mumbai Tech Week in Mumbai, India, in March 2025.

How would you encourage sustainable behaviour? You might assume logical messages work best. Stuff like “the average three-hour flight creates ~250–400 kg of CO₂”. But today's guest on Nudge has tested logical messages. And they don't work. Today on Nudge, Toby Park from the Behavioural Insights Team explains how renaming a meat-free dish doubled its sales. Why targeting home-movers made Americans 400% more likely to cycle. How social norms can increase sales by 20%. And the reframing led the majority of Brits to choose energy-efficient fridges. --- Watch the bonus episode: https://nudge.kit.com/27720ca0ad Connect with Toby on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/toby-park-67773279/ Read Toby's Net Zero Report: https://shorturl.at/Wy8RP How to Build a Net Zero Society: https://shorturl.at/0PcRk Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/ Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/ --- Sources: Das, G., Spence, M.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. 1. NATO's 100% Sanctions Warning to India, China & Brazil NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, with backing from U.S. President Donald Trump, issued a stark ultimatum: any country still trading oil and gas with Russia will face “100% secondary sanctions.” Targeting China, India, and Brazil directly, Rutte urged their leaders to pressure Putin into serious peace talks within 50 days—echoing Trump's threat of “biting” trade penalties if no progress is made. For India, which has ramped up imports of discounted Russian oil since the Ukraine war began, the message signals growing Western impatience and raises the economic cost of neutrality. 2. Vedanta Faces Fire from Short Seller Viceroy Viceroy Research has reignited scrutiny on Vedanta Ltd, accusing its promoters of secretly holding a 1.91% stake via a trust-controlled entity, PTC Cables Pvt Ltd. The report claims this vehicle was used to funnel ₹1,500 crore in dividends to promoter-linked entities. Vedanta dismissed the allegations as “baseless,” stating full regulatory compliance. Yet public records show links to the Agarwal family and longtime associates. While JP Morgan backed Vedanta with an Overweight rating, the shadow of opaque trust structures and governance concerns continues to hover. 3. Tesla Finally Enters India—With a Luxury SUV, Not Scale Tesla has launched its long-awaited India operations with a flagship showroom in Mumbai's BKC and the Model Y SUV priced between ₹61–68 lakh. While not aimed at mass adoption, Tesla's appeal lies in its battery range, tech branding, and cargo space. However, its full self-driving features remain off-limits due to legal and regulatory barriers. India recently eased EV import duties for companies promising local manufacturing within three years, but Elon Musk skipped a planned visit and hasn't committed to building in India yet. For now, Tesla rides on novelty rather than numbers. 4. Nvidia's China Chip Move Raises Eyebrows in Washington Nvidia is seeking U.S. approval to resume sales of its H20 AI chips to China—part of a broader deal involving rare earth shipments to U.S. firms. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed the chip sale is linked to this “magnet” trade agreement. While the H20 chips are legally exportable, they remain powerful due to Nvidia's software ecosystem. Lawmakers, however, are alarmed. Bipartisan critics argue the move undermines national security and could accelerate China's AI ambitions, especially for companies like DeepSeek. With China generating $17B in revenue for Nvidia last year, CEO Jensen Huang's balancing act could carry geopolitical consequences. 5. Trump Says US-India Trade Deal “Within Reach”—But Dairy Is a Dealbreaker Former President Donald Trump signaled progress on a long-pending trade pact with India, declaring, “We're going to have access into India.” He cited a finalized deal with Indonesia as precedent, where U.S. exports face zero tariffs. But talks with India remain stuck—particularly over dairy imports. India has drawn a firm line, refusing U.S. dairy unless it's certified free of animal byproducts, protecting its cultural norms and small farmers. With bilateral trade hovering around $200 billion and a $500 billion target by 2030, both nations are engaged in a complex tariff tug-of-war. Learn more about your ad choices.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving beyond a mere tool to become the foundational operating system for modern businesses, particularly in the SMB and mid-market sectors. Anurag Agarwal, founder and chief global analyst at TechIsle, discusses the transformative potential of AI as an operating system (AIOS), which would integrate intelligent capabilities at the core of computing. This concept envisions a system that learns user behavior, anticipates needs, and automates tasks, blurring the lines between user intent and system action. However, Agarwal emphasizes that we are still in the early stages of this evolution, with AIOS being more of an aspirational goal than a current reality.The conversation also delves into the concept of agentic AI, which represents a shift from traditional robotic process automation (RPA) to more autonomous, judgment-driven automation. While many SMBs are exploring agentic AI for applications like customer service and IT operations, the adoption remains nascent. The research indicates that businesses are looking for solutions that can handle complex processes without human intervention, highlighting the need for operational autonomy. Agarwal points out that the challenges of integrating AI into existing workflows and ensuring accountability for AI-driven decisions are significant hurdles that need to be addressed.Security is another critical theme discussed, as AI presents both opportunities and risks. The podcast highlights the dual nature of AI as a "sword and a shield," where it can be used to enhance security measures but also introduces new attack vectors. Threats such as social engineering, data poisoning, and automated exploitation are becoming more prevalent, necessitating advanced security solutions. Agarwal mentions that while some vendors are making strides in AI-powered security, there is still a gap in readiness for SMBs and mid-market firms to effectively implement these solutions.Finally, the discussion touches on the importance of unified experience platforms (UXPs) that integrate customer and employee experiences. Agarwal explains that these platforms aim to streamline communication and enhance interactions across various touchpoints, ultimately driving operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. However, there is a notable gap in the readiness of the partner channel to implement these solutions effectively. The conversation concludes with a call for MSPs to focus on understanding customer needs and building their capabilities to bridge this gap, ensuring they can deliver the integrated solutions that businesses are increasingly seeking.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX The American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions kicks off in a week – we expect as always to get a lot of information! I'm not covering in person this year, but I'll bring you any big announcements. And we'll do a wrap up In the News the following week. -- XX UVA with something new.. technology that allows an artificial pancreas system to adapt to users' changing needs – and lets users adjust the settings – beyond what's commercially available now. They're calling this “adaptive biobehavioral control,” the technology helps fine-tune UVA's artificial pancreas every two weeks, giving users a virtual tool to test different ways to manage their blood sugar using their own data. In a six-month study, participants using the technology spent more time in a healthy blood-sugar range, rising from 72% to 77%, and saw a small but meaningful drop in their average blood-sugar levels. While automated insulin delivery systems help users better manage Type 1 diabetes, adaptive biobehavioral control technology is designed to improve blood-sugar control during the day, when fluctuations occur more frequently due to meals and physical activity. This new technology uses “digital twins,” computer models simulating how a person's body processes sugar. The models help the artificial pancreas keep up with changes in the user's body and habits and give users a way to interact with the system. For example, users can try different settings, like how much insulin is released overnight, using the simulation before applying them in real life. https://news.virginia.edu/content/uvas-artificial-pancreas-uses-digital-twin-tech-improve-diabetes-control XX Five years later after COVID-19 his the US, a new study shows that there is a connection with type 1 diabetes triggers. This is new research from the University of Utah published in the journal ImmunoInformatics. With T1D in particular, a COVID infection appears to trigger the immune system of certain people who have a prior susceptibility to the condition to subsequently develop T1D symptoms, the new study suggests. University of Utah researchers hypothesize that COVID is leading to T1D diagnoses in a roundabout way as the virus presents the body with “molecular mimics,” or fragments of COVID proteins that bear an uncanny resemblance to those beta cell antigens. When a person is infected with COVID, the immune system not only attacks fragments of the viral protein but also attacks fragments of beta cell antigens because they look so similar and get mistaken for each other, explains lead study author Julio Facelli, Ph.D., a distinguished professor of biomedical informatics at University of Utah Health in Salt Lake City. That means that in people who are already predisposed to T1D, there may be a simultaneous autoimmune reaction involving the destruction of healthy beta cells, spurring the onset of type 1 diabetes. Both 2022 and 2024 research indicates that there has been a significant increase in new onset type 1 diabetes following the start of the COVID pandemic. It's difficult to estimate just how many cases may have been triggered by COVID because numerous viruses, including rotavirus, measles, mumps, and rubella, can spark an autoimmune response that activates T1D, according to the 2022 research published in Immunology & Cell Biology. Again, it's important to note that researchers don't believe a COVID infection is causing diabetes, but rather, triggering it, in the same way certain environmental factors are believed to trigger immune-mediated conditions like Crohn's and psoriasis. “ https://www.healthcentral.com/news/type-1-diabetes/how-covid-might-trigger-t1d XX Insulet announces the Omnipod® 5 App for iPhone is now compatible with the Dexcom G7. Eric Benjamin, Insulet Executive Vice President, Chief Product and Customer Experience Officer. “With the addition of the Dexcom G7 sensor to the Omnipod 5 App for iPhone, our U.S. customers have more choice with fewer devices to keep track of, making it easier than ever to manage their diabetes.” The Omnipod 5 App with Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G6 compatibility is now available for download on the Apple App Store. Switching to a new Omnipod 5 device will require you to go through First Time Setup again. Insulin delivery history from previous Pods will be lost when you switch to your new device and adaptivity will start over. Use this guide and video to help transfer your settings: Omnipod also announced a collaboration with Marvel.. on an original comic to celebrate representation for the diabetes community and empower people with diabetes to unleash their inner hero. “Dyasonic: Sound of Strength” features Omnya, who was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, struggles with her management, and is prescribed an insulin pump. Omnya learns that when her glucose levels are in range she can take on anything, and anyone, and transforms into the comic's hero, Dyasonic! The hope is that readers will be able to see themselves overcoming these same challenges and break mental barriers to adopting technology with the potential for improved outcomes and quality of life. D'Spayre is a Marvel villain who preys on victims who are in despair, using their fear to strengthen himself—akin to the negative emotions that can come with diabetes. Insulet remains dedicated to advancing diabetes technology and improving the lives of people with diabetes. For more information, please visit https://www.omnipod.com/innovation. XX Tandem is the latest partner for Abbot's future Glucose-Ketone Sensor. New agreement to develop and commercialize integrated diabetes solutions that combine Abbott's future dual glucose-ketone sensor with Tandem's innovative insulin delivery systems to provide more options for people to manage their diabetes. The Abbott sensor, currently under development, will combine glucose and ketone sensing technology that aims to help people living with diabetes detect early ketone rise to avoid life-threatening diabetic ketoacidosis. Sequel Med Tech is also partnering with Abbott on this, as part of the twist pump, launching later this year. https://www.stocktitan.net/news/TNDM/tandem-diabetes-care-announces-agreement-with-abbott-for-integration-xl1vug3c0axy.html XX New guidelines for the management of type 2 diabetes and prediabetes include tools clinicians can use to help patients stick to lifestyle interventions. A panel of practitioners working in lifestyle medicine, including primary care physicians, cardiologists, endocrinologists, sleep experts, dietitians, and exercise medicine specialists, laid out six areas clinicians should help patients manage. These include sleep and stress, nutrition, physical activity, tobacco and alcohol, and social connection. The guidelines, released on June 10 by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM), largely mirror lifestyle guidelines by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) but add specifics about how clinicians can help patients achieve their goals. Each patient should still receive tailored counseling, which may include medication https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/new-guidelines-shift-diabetes-care-toward-behavior-2025a1000fht XX Microplastics from a widely used biodegradable material can enter the metabolic cycle of bacteria and cells in the gut after being ingested, a new study has found. Researchers in China and the United States said the microplastics – from polylactic acid – were found to alter the gut metabolism and damage the gut barrier of mice. They said this could potentially contribute to conditions like inflammatory bowel disease and diabetes. In recent years, microplastics have been found in human lungs, kidneys, blood, placenta and breast milk. https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3313412/microplastics-biodegradable-material-may-be-linked-diabetes-study-finds XX Over 19,000 cases of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar are being recalled after the cans were found to contain full-sugar soda, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced. The voluntary recall, initiated May 23, affects 12-pack and 24-pack cases of the 12-ounce aluminum cans that are labeled “Dr Pepper Zero Sugar.” Despite the label, the drinks inside contain the same amount of sugar found in regular Dr Pepper — about 39 grams per can — posing a health risk for people with diabetes or anyone needing to limit sugar intake. On Thursday, June 5, the FDA officially classified the recall as Class II, meaning the product “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences." DR PEPPER ZERO SUGAR - 12 OZ, 12 PK DR PEPPER ZERO SUGAR - 12 OZ, 12 PK. Amazon Consumers can identify the recalled cases by the product code, which is listed as XXXXRS05165, and the "best by" date of Feb. 16, 2026 No other Dr Pepper products or batches of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar are part of the recall. https://people.com/dr-pepper-recall-sugar-found-in-zero-sugar-cans-11750981 XX A step forward for a device that uses breath to gather information about blood sugar. It's called Isaac, the company is PreEvnt, you wear it on a lanyard and breathe into it. The breathalyzer technology was developed in collaboration with the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute at IU Indianapolis, and was inspired by diabetes alert dogs. "Our lab was able to successfully identify the specific molecules in breath that correlate with hypoglycemia, which is the 'scent' that diabetic alert dogs can detect," said Mangilal Agarwal, director of the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute and a professor in the IU Luddy School of Informatics, Computing and Engineering at IU Indianapolis. Agarwal's lab is partnering with the IU School of Medicine to test and validate the effectiveness of the device in individuals with diabetes—an important next step on the path to wider commercialization. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-06-breathalyzer-device-diabetes.html#google_vignette XX Katie Bone is back on American Ninja Warrior! The youngest ever American Ninja Warrior Women's National winner, she injured her knee at Olympic Climbing Trials in 2023. This week, she was back on the show. She says: Katie Bone: It was incredible. I've not been able to compete for a few years, so getting to come back and hit a buzzer on my first chance back on the course felt really, really incredible; Very rewarding after everything I had to go through to get back there.

Sahil Agarwal, co-founder and CEO of Enkrypt.ai, discusses the critical importance of security and compliance in the realm of artificial intelligence (AI) models. His company focuses on helping enterprises adopt generative AI while managing the associated risks. Agarwal explains that the mission of Enkrypt.ai has evolved from developing encryption algorithms to creating comprehensive solutions that provide ongoing management and monitoring of AI applications. This shift aims to ensure that businesses can safely integrate AI technologies without exposing themselves to brand, legal, or security risks.Agarwal highlights the dual approach of Enkrypt.ai, which includes an initial risk assessment followed by continuous monitoring and management. The risk assessment involves simulating attacks on AI systems to identify vulnerabilities, while the ongoing management ensures that any identified risks are mitigated effectively. This iterative process creates a feedback loop that enhances the security posture of generative applications, allowing businesses to operate with greater confidence.The conversation also touches on the economic challenges surrounding generative AI, where many companies invest heavily in projects that struggle to reach production due to unresolved security and compliance issues. Agarwal notes that while there is a democratization of AI technology, the real value lies in how enterprises apply these models. He emphasizes the need for businesses to adopt a proactive approach to security, particularly as they scale their use of AI agents and chatbots.Finally, Agarwal addresses the pressing issue of data leakage, particularly when using third-party AI models. He advises organizations to keep sensitive data on the client side and to choose trusted solutions to mitigate risks. By implementing robust security measures and maintaining a vigilant posture, businesses can harness the power of AI while safeguarding their proprietary information.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Dr. Eva Hörmanseder from the HelmholtzZentrum in Munich about her work on epigenetic mechanisms in cellular memory and gene regulation. In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of cellular memory and gene regulation with Dr. Eva Hermanns-Eder from the Helmholtz Zentrum in Munich. Her research centers on how cells maintain their identity through the process of mitotic divisions, which is crucial for understanding both development and various diseases. We explore the role of chromatin dynamics and epigenetic modifications in switching genes on and off over time, which has significant implications for fields like cancer biology and regenerative medicine. The discussion starts with Dr. Hörmanseder's recent studies on epigenetic memories, particularly focusing on the concept of transcriptional memory in nuclear transfer embryos. She explains her work with H3K4 trimethylation, a crucial epigenetic mark associated with active transcription states, detailing experiments that demonstrate the significance of this mark in the context of gene expression during reprogramming. She elaborates on her findings regarding how active genes can remain in a state of transcriptional memory and the implications of such persistence for cellular identity. We also dive into Dr. Hörmanseder's exploration of how transcription factors and chromatin modifications shape the differentiation success of reprogrammed cells. Through her research, she uncovers that different cell types exhibit varying degrees of plasticity and memory retention, which can lead to disparities in successful differentiation. Her innovative use of single-cell sequencing technology reveals surprising insights into the dynamics of cellular reprogramming, especially when comparing reprogrammed cells to their fertilized counterparts.

Transformative Leadership Conversations with Winnie da Silva
“No one works as hard as founders do. They're operating on another level of intensity.” - Medha AgarwalIs your pitch holding you back more than your business idea? Are you making it easy for investors to dream the dream with you? In this episode, I sit down with Medha Agarwal, General Partner at Defy, to talk about the unique challenges founders face—especially women—when pitching their startups, securing funding, and leading through growth. She shares why too many founders unknowingly undersell their vision and how simple shifts in storytelling can make all the difference.Medha also opens up about her own career journey, from being a founder to working in venture capital, and what she's learned about choosing the right team, adapting in fast-moving startups, and pushing past perceived limits. We also dive into her experience as a Harvard rower and the powerful leadership lessons she's carried from the water to the boardroom.Whether you're a founder, thinking about launching a startup, or simply curious about what separates the best pitches from the rest, this conversation is packed with actionable insights on confidence, resilience, and strategic growth.You'll hear us discuss:Why women founders struggle with selling the big picture – Medha explains that many female founders naturally emphasize what still needs to be done rather than what they've already achieved. Investors need to see the vision and the opportunity, not just the challenges ahead.The subtle shift that makes a pitch stronger – Instead of pointing out gaps or weaknesses, founders should frame their journey as momentum. Investors want to be inspired—help them see how they can be part of something big and inevitable.The underestimated importance of flexibility in startups – Too often, people transitioning from corporate jobs to startups focus on titles and initial responsibilities. But in a fast-growing company, your job will change drastically every six months. The real key to success is choosing the right company and founder rather than clinging to a specific role.What makes a startup worth joining – Medha stresses that it's better to join a company where you believe in the founder's vision and leadership style, even if the role isn't perfect. A rising tide lifts all boats—if the company succeeds, so will your career.How rowing taught her to lead and collaborate – Rowing is the ultimate team sport, where trying to stand out individually slows the whole boat down. The same applies in startups—success comes from alignment, trust, and moving in sync with the team.The reason she prefers working behind the scenes – Medha admits she's uncomfortable with the spotlight on herself and much prefers helping others shine. This mindset makes her a stronger investor and advisor—she's fully focused on helping founders succeed, not chasing personal recognition.ResourcesMedha Agarwal on LinkedIn | DefyWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | Email - winnie@winnifred.org
