Amr sits down with internationally recognized executive coach, speaker, and author, Mohammed Farris. The discussion delves into the integration of spirituality and productivity, centered around Mohamed's latest book, The Barakah Effect: More with Less. The episode uses a hypothetical character, Ali, to explore how worldly success without a deep spiritual intention can feel empty and scattered. Mohamed emphasizes the importance of aligning daily actions with a high intention (niyyah) and relatively high aspirational purpose, grounded in service to God. Additionally, they explore practical aspects of nurturing a business and personal life with Barakah (divine blessing), including structuring schedules around sacred times and making God-centered decisions. This episode is a deep dive into balancing life's demands while prioritizing spirituality and service.

Andrea James, Chief Financial Officer at iMDx, is focused on expanding access to innovative molecular diagnostic testing staring with a test for monitoring transplanted organ health.  The test measures the donor-derived cell-free DNA which can indicate the need for drugs to target organ rejection before invasive procedures are required. The company is developing a kit-based version of the test that can be run by hospitals rather than relying on centralized labs, to increase access to this diagnostic and improve transplant outcomes. Andrea explains, "We changed our name on June 17th from OncoCyte, as you had just referenced, to Insight Molecular Diagnostics Inc. We're now going by iMDx, and our mission is to democratize access to novel molecular diagnostic testing to improve patient outcomes." "We actually have three pieces of IP, intellectual property, and we are initially commercializing in transplant. So we measure a biomarker called donor-derived cell-free DNA, don't get too hung up on it. That's a lot of words. It basically looks for fragments of DNA in the blood, which can indicate transplanted organ damage and therefore rejection. And so that is where we are commercializing first." "What's really interesting is that the innovations in this space are, okay, so let's say you've been on dialysis, that's a really tough life. You finally get your transplanted kidney, and now let's say your body is starting to reject it. You're one of those one in five who were a match, your kidney was a match for you, but then your immune system is attacking it anyway. That used to be almost a death sentence."  "Your options there were you're going to lose your kidney, you go back on dialysis, or you lose your life. But now there are therapies that are coming out to treat antibody-mediated rejection, or AMR, and our test is being used to monitor the efficacy of those therapies." #iMDx #MolecularDiagnostics #Molecular #Diagnostics #Healthcare #PrecisionMedicine #Genomics #Decentralized #LiquidBiopsy #DigitalPCR #Transplant #Localization #Labs #PointOfCareTesting #RapidCare #Democratization imdxinc.com Download the transcript here

İnsanın taşıdığı vücut ve can aslında kendisine ait olmayıp, Allâhü Teâlâ'nın insanlara verdiği bir emânettir. Biz de Allâh'ın verdiği bu emâneti hakkıyla muhâfaza etmek zorundayız. Dikkat etmemiz gereken hususlar vücûdumuzun sıhhatini korumak, vücûdumuzun kuvvetini korumak ve vücûdumuzun huzur ve sükûnunu korumak yani fenâ işlerle meşgul olup onların vereceği sıkıntı ile vücûdumuzun rahat ve huzûrunu kaçırmamaktadır. Nitekim bu hususların korunmasında herhangi bir aksaklık meydana gelse o zaman işlerimizi yürütmemiz de imkânsızlaşır. Bundan başka diğer din kardeşlerimizin ve ihtiyaç sâhiplerinin yardımına koşamayız, yine bunun gibi nankörlük ve sabırsızlık gibi kötü alışkanlıklar kazanırız. Zira bu gibi karışık işlerle uğraşmak imânı zayıflatır ve yer bitirir.Huzeyfe (r.a.) rivayet ediyor: Resûlullâh (s.a.v.): “Mü'mine kendi nefsini rezil etmek yakışmaz.” buyurdu. Sahâbîler (r.a.e.) sordular: “Yâ Resûlullâh! Nefsini rezil etmekten maksat nedir?” Allâh Resûlü (s.a.v.): “Altından kalkamayacağı sıkıntılı işlere kendini sokar.” buyurdu. Bu hadîs-i şeriften insanın vücûdunu gıdasızlık veya fazlaca yıpratmak suretiyle kendi idâresinden çıkarıncaya kadar perişan etmemesi gerekir denilmiştir. Abdullah b. Amr (r.a.) anlatıyor: Peygamberimiz (s.a.v.) bana hitaben: “Ey Abdullah! Senin sürekli gündüzleri oruç tuttuğun, geceleri de ibâdetle geçirdiğin bana haber verilmedi mi sanıyorsun?” dedi. Ben de: “Evet öyle yapıyorum ey Allâh'ın Resûlü” dedim. Bunun üzerine Resûlullâh (s.a.v.): “Böyle yapma. Bazen oruç tut bazen tutma. Geceleri de hem ibâdetini yap, hem de uyu. Bedeninin sende hakkı var. Gözlerinin sende hakkı var. Eşinin sende hakkı var.” buyurdu.(Misvâk Neşriyat, Eşref Ali et-Tehânevî, Hayâtü'l Müslimîn, s.185)

Was passiert, wenn Technologie nicht nur Märkte, sondern ganze Gesellschaften verändert? In dieser Folge spricht Thilo Mischke mit Journalist Fritz Espenlaub über den Einfluss von Peter Thiel – Tech-Milliardär, PayPal-Gründer und Strippenzieher im Hintergrund der US-Politik. Sie diskutieren, wie Thiels libertäre Ideen und sein Netzwerk die politische Landschaft in den USA und möglicherweise auch in Europa verschieben könnten. Warum fasziniert Thiel seit Jahrzehnten mit seiner Vision einer radikal veränderten Welt? Ist er ein gefährlicher Visionär oder nur ein weiterer Spieler auf dem „Schachbrett der Zukunft“? Und wie können wir in Europa auf diesen globalen Macht-Shift reagieren? Fritz Espenlaub hat sich intensiv mit Peter Thiel beschäftigt und dazu den ARD-Podcast **„Die Peter Thiel Story“** produziert – unbedingt hörenswert: [Hier anhören](https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/die-peter-thiel-story/urn:ard:show:8862c28ddc06b3b7/).

In der heutigen Folge spricht Thilo mit Jouanna Hassoun, politische Bildnerin, Menschenrechtsaktivistin und Mitbegründerin des Vereins Transaidency e.V.. Sie floh als Kind vor dem Bürgerkrieg im Libanon nach Deutschland, hat palästinensische Wurzeln und engagiert sich seit über 15 Jahren für Dialogarbeit und humanitäre Hilfe. Die Lage in Gaza ist aktuell katastrophal: Millionen Menschen stehen vor einer Hungersnot, Hilfsgüter erreichen die Bevölkerung nur eingeschränkt, die medizinische Versorgung ist nahezu zusammengebrochen. Kinder sterben an Mangelernährung, während die politische Blockade jede Form von Hilfe erschwert. Internationale Organisationen sprechen von einer Krise historischen Ausmaßes. Im Gespräch erzählt Jouanna, wie sie trotz dieser Bedingungen versucht, gemeinsam mit ihrem Team und Partner:innen aus Berlin konkrete Hilfe in den Gazastreifen zu bringen. Sie spricht mit Thilo darüber, was humanitäre Arbeit unter Blockade bedeutet, wie sich politischer Dialog und praktische Hilfe verbinden lassen und was es braucht, um nicht in Ohnmacht zu erstarren, während vor den Augen der Welt eine humanitäre Katastrophe geschieht.

Thilo spricht in dieser Sonderfolge mit Martin Lautwein. Martin kennt sich berufsbedingt mit weltweiten Sicherheitslagen aus – besonders in Syrien. Gemeinsam ordnen sie die dramatischen Ereignisse der letzten Tage ein: eskalierende Kämpfe zwischen Drusen und Beduinen im Süden Syriens, hunderte Tote, eine Übergangsregierung, die kaum Kontrolle hat, und israelische Luftschläge mitten in Damaskus. Was steckt hinter dieser Gewaltspirale? Warum scheitern alle Versuche, Stabilität in das Land zu bringen? Und was bedeutet das für die über eine Million Syrerinnen und Syrer, die heute in Deutschland leben? Martin und Thilo sprechen über politische Interessen, über fehlende Aufarbeitung nach Jahren des Bürgerkriegs – und darüber, warum eine Rückkehr geflüchteter Menschen aktuell unmöglich ist.

Send us a textIt's a common scenario for a cancer patient. They're undergoing treatment and get what's known as a peripherally inserted central catheter or PICC (pronounced “pick”) line to make it more convenient to administer drugs. They are in and out of the hospital or just the clinic frequently to see various providers. The treatment they receive may run down their immune system a little bit. Just having cancer may have damaged their immune system.So then they get an infection.Perhaps it's no big deal. A round of antibiotics may take care of it. However, increasingly, these infections are resistant to antibiotics – something known as antimicrobial resistance or AMR.Then, the patient must wait weeks or even months to resume cancer treatment while the infection is treated. And, all too often, the infection itself may kill the patient. In fact, infections are the second-leading cause of death for cancer patients.Dr. Yehoda M. Martei, Assistant Professor of Medicine (Hematology-Oncology) at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and colleagues have been working to find out just how common these infections are. Among patients hospitalized for treatment, cancer patients were up to twice as likely to get a drug-resistant infection, she and colleagues found. Among outpatients – people getting treatment at clinics or offices but not staying in the hospital – cancer patients had three times the risk of drug-resistant infections.Listen as Dr. Martei tells One World, One Health host Maggie Fox about her findings, what they mean, and what must be done to protect cancer patients and ensure infections don't stop them from getting the treatment they need.

Amr Hallaba immigrated from Egypt in 1998 when he was just 16 years old joining his mother and sister who arrived before him. He stepped into his life in Georgia leaving behind all of his friends, his father, stepmother and stepsister. A new chapter was about to launch… with his high school diploma earned in Egypt it was now time to begin working while attending community college in the evening. His first job taught him hard work and resilience along with challenging, but impactful, techniques to manage conflict in the workplace. Moving into a new position in retail sales, he speaks fondly of his first mentor who worked closely with him in training and development, and how he worked his way to the #1 sales spot in the southern region. But, as a highly motivated and goal oriented professional, he wasn't totally satisfied with how long it was taking him to reach his goals so he decided to change his pathway into the car business. This pivotal career move would influence the trajectory of his professional path where he would meet an impactful auto dealer owner/operator who would mentor him and invest in his future changing his life on numerous levels. At just 29 years old Amr became a General Manager and attended the NADA Dealer Academy. Today he is the COO of a large dealer group expanding across the Northeast and the South, and still loves speaking to customers when he walks through the showroom. Whether it's navigating a customer issue or just a quick hello, he knows that a positive company culture is critical to success. With deep gratitude for his ample opportunities, he expresses an authentic statement to all immigrants…do not get discouraged, focus on your goal, and remember you can learn a lot from failures.
