Podcast appearances and mentions of Andrew Lee

Petersfield’s Climate action network - PeCAN - is to launch a Repair Cafe in the New Year to join the other 28 in Hampshire. Andrew Lee, who’s running the project, speaks to Mike Waddington about making the plan work, where the movement started and how it can help. Working with local businesses and other organisations (like the Men's Shed) It's brings advantages for the environment, spreads useful skills, as well as being good value for money. Andrew says it's also about a change of mindset from a 'throwaway society' and learning from previous generations, and he has a kettle to prove it can be done!

Ryan introduces co-host Holly Knotowicz.   [1:13] Holly introduces today's topic, Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP) and eosinophilic esophagitis (EOE), and today's guest, Dr. Andrew Lee, Vice President, Clinical Research at Uniquity Bio.   [1:36] Dr. Lee has nearly 20 years of experience in the clinical development of new vaccines, biologics, and drugs. Holly welcomes Dr. Lee.   [1:52] Dr. Lee trained in internal medicine and infectious diseases.   [1:58] Dr. Lee has been fascinated by the immune system and how it can protect people against infections, what happens when immunity is damaged, as in HIV and AIDS, and how to apply that knowledge to boost immunity with vaccines to prevent infections.   [2:16] Dr. Lee led the clinical development for a pediatric combination vaccine for infants and toddlers. It is approved in the U.S. and the EU.   [2:29] Dr. Lee led the Phase 3 Program for a monoclonal antibody to prevent RSV, a serious infection in infants. That antibody was approved in June 2025 for use in the U.S.   [2:44] In his current company, Dr. Lee leads research into approaches to counteract an overactive immune system. They're looking at anti-inflammatory approaches to diseases like asthma, EoE, and COPD.   [2:58] Dr. Lee directs the ongoing Phase 2 studies that they are running in those areas.   [3:28] Dr. Lee sees drug development as a chance to apply cutting-edge research to benefit people. He trained at Bellevue Hospital in New York City in the 1990s.   [3:40] When Dr. Lee started as an intern, there were dedicated ICU wards for AIDS patients because many of the sickest patients were dying of AIDS and its complications.    [3:52] Before the end of Dr. Lee's residency, they shut down those wards because the patients were on anti-retroviral medications and were doing so well that they were treated as outpatients. They didn't need dedicated ICUs for AIDS patients anymore.   [4:09] For Dr. Lee, that was a powerful example of how pharmaceutical research and drug regimen can impact patients' lives for the better by following the science. That's what drove Dr. Lee to go in the direction of research.   [4:48] Dr. Lee explains Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP). TSLP serves as an alarm signal for Type 2 or TH2 inflammation, a branch of the immune responses responsible for allergic responses and also immunity against parasites.   [5:17] When the cells that line the GI tract and the cells that line the airways in our lungs receive an insult or an injury, they get a danger signal, then they make TSLP.   [5:28] This signal activates other immune cells, like eosinophils and dendritic cells, which make other inflammatory signals or cytokines like IL-4, IL-13, and IL-5.   [5:47] That cascade leads to inflammation, which is designed to protect the body in response to the danger signal, but in some diseases, when there's continued exposure to allergens or irritants, that inflammation goes from being protective to being harmful.   [6:15] That continued inflammation, over the years, can lead to things like the thickened esophagus with EoE, or lungs that are less pliant and less able to expand, in respiratory diseases.   [6:48] Dr. Lee says he thinks of TSLP as being a master switch for this branch of immune responses. If you turn on TSLP, that turns on a lot of steps that lead to generating an allergic type of response.   [7:06] It's also the same type of immune response that can fight off parasite infections. It's the first step in a cascade of other steps generating that type of immune response.   [7:30] Dr. Lee says people have natural genetic variation in the genes that incur TSLP.   [7:38] Observational studies have found that some people with genetic variations that lead to higher levels of TSLP in their bodies had an increased risk for allergic inflammatory diseases like EoE, atopic dermatitis, and asthma.   [8:13] Studies like the one just mentioned point to TSLP being important for increased risk of developing atopic types of diseases like EoE and others. There's been some work done in the laboratory that shows that TSLP is important for activating eosinophils.    [8:38] There's accumulating evidence that TSLP activation leads to eosinophil activation, other immune cells, or white blood cells getting activated.   [9:07] Like a cascade, those cells turn on T-cells and B-cells, which are like vector cells. They lead to direct responses to fight off infections, in case that's the signal that leads to the turning on TSLP.   [9:48] Ryan refers to a paper published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology exploring the role of TSLP in an experimental mouse model of eosinophilic esophagitis. Ryan asks what the researchers were aiming to find.   [10:00] Dr. Lee says the researchers were looking at the genetic studies we talked about, the observational studies that are beginning to link more TSLP with more risk for EoE and those types of diseases.   [10:12] The other type of evidence that's accumulating is from in vitro (in glass) experiments or test tube experiments, where you take a couple of cells that you think are relevant to what's going on.   [10:28] For example, you could get some esophageal cells and a couple of immune cells, and put TSLP into the mix, and you see that TSLP leads to activation of those immune cells and that leads to some effects on the esophageal cells.   [10:42] Those are nice studies, but they're very simplified compared to what you can do in the body. These researchers were interested in extending those initial observations from other studies, but working in the more realistic situation of a mouse model.   [11:00] You have the whole body of the mouse being involved. You can explore what TSLP is doing and model a disease that closely mimics what's happening with EoE in humans.   [12:23] They recreated the situation of what seems to be happening in EoE in people. We haven't identified it specifically, but there's some sort of food allergen in patients with EoE that the immune system is set off by.   [12:55] What researchers are observing in this paper is that in these mice that were treated with oxazolone, there is inflammation in the esophagus, an increase in TSLP levels, and eosinophils going into the esophageal tissues.   [13:15] Dr. Lee says, that's one of the main ways we diagnose EoE; we take a biopsy of the esophagus and count how many eosinophils there are. Researchers saw similar findings. The eosinophil count in the esophageal tissues went way up in these mice.    [13:34] Researchers also saw other findings in these mice that are very similar to EoE in humans, such as the esophageal cells lining the esophagus proliferating. They even saw that new blood vessels were being created in that tissue that's getting inflamed.   [14:00] Dr. Lee thinks it's a very nice paper because it shows that correlation: Increase TSLP and you see these eosinophils going to the esophagus, and these changes that are very reminiscent of what we see in people with EoE.   [14:51] In this paper, the mice made the TSLP, and researchers were able to measure the TSLP in the esophageal tissue. The researchers didn't introduce TSLP into the mice. The mice made the TSLP in response to being repeatedly exposed to oxazolone.   [15:20] That's key to the importance of the laboratory work. The fact that the TSLP is made by the mice is important. It makes it a very realistic model for what we're seeing in people.   [15:41] In science, we like to see correlation. The researchers showed a nice correlation.   [15:46] When TSLP went up in these mice, and the mice were making more TSLP on their own, at the same time, they saw all these changes in the esophagus that look a lot like what EoE looks like in people.    [16:01] They saw the eosinophils coming into the esophagus. They saw the inflammation go up in the esophagus. What Dr. Lee liked about this paper is that they continued the story.   [16:15] The researchers took something that decreases TSLP levels, an antibody that binds to and blocks TSLP, and when they did that, they saw the TSLP levels come down to half the peak level.   [16:35] Then they saw improvement in the inflammation in the esophagus. They saw that the amount of eosinophils decreased, and the multiplication of the esophageal cells went down. The number of new blood vessels went down after the TSLP was reduced.   [16:53] Dr. Lee says, you see correlation. The second part is evidence for causation. When you take TSLP away, things get better. That gives us a lot of confidence that this is a real finding. It's not just observational. There is causation evidence here.   [18:26] Ryan asks if cutting TSLP also help reduce other immune response cells. Dr. Lee says TSLP is the master regulator for this Type 2 inflammation. It definitely touches and influences other cells besides eosinophils.   [18:44] TSLP affects dendritic cells, which are an important type of immune cell, like a coordinating cell that instructs other cells within the immune system what to do. In this paper, they looked at a lot of other effects of TSLP on the tissues of the body.   [19:10] Dr. Lee says, There's a lot of research on TSLP, and one of the reasons we're excited about the promise of TSLP is that it's so far upstream; so much of the beginning, that it's affecting other cells.   [19:29] Its effects could be quite broad. If we're able to successfully block TSLP, we could block a lot of different effects.   [19:40] One treatment for EoE is dupilumab, which blocks IL-4 and IL-13 specifically, and that works well, but TSLP has the potential to have an even greater effect than blocking IL-4 and IL-13, since it is one step before turning on IL-4 and IL-13.    [20:14] That's one of the reasons researchers are excited about the promise of blocking TSLP. There are studies ongoing of TSLP blockers in people with EoE.   [20:34] Ryan asks if there are negative repercussions from blocking TSLP. Dr. Lee says in this study and in people, we are not completely blocking TSLP by any means. There will still be residual TSLP activated, even with very potent drugs.   [21:01] In the study, they block TSLP about 50%‒60%. TSLP is involved in immunity against parasites. In studies with people, they make sure not to include anybody who has an active parasitic infection. A person under treatment should not be in a study.   [21:27] Dr. Lee says we haven't seen any problems with parasitic infections becoming more severe, but that is a theoretical possibility, so for that reason, in studies with TSLP blockers, we generally exclude patients with known parasitic infections.   [22:17] What excited Dr. Lee in this paper was that they showed that when you block TSLP in the mice, then you get real effects in their tissues. Eosinophils went away. The thickening of the basal layers in the esophagus got much better.   [22:38] That kind of real effect reflected in the tissue is super exciting to see. That gives us more confidence that this could work in people, since we're seeing it in a realistic whole-body model in the mice.   [23:12] Dr. Lee says there are ongoing clinical studies on TSLP blockers for EoE. His company is studying an antibody that blocks TSLP in eczema, COPD, and EoE. One of the exciting things about immunology is that it affects many different parts of the body.   [23:42] EoE is associated with other immune-type disorders. There's a high percentage of patients with EoE who have other diseases. EoE coexists with asthma, atopic dermatitis, and chronic rhinitis.   [24:09] It's exciting that if you figure out something that's promising for one disease that TSLP affects, it could have very broad-ranging implications for a variety of diseases.   [24:22] Ryan shares his experience of his doctor talking to him about a TSLP blocker, tezepelumab, as a potential option when it's out of clinical trials. It would target something a little higher up the chain and help with some of his remaining symptoms.   [24:59] Ryan is excited to hear that this research is so encouraging and how it could potentially help treat EoE, asthma, and other conditions, all at once.   [25:16] Dr. Lee says that being in these later-stage studies is super exciting. If these late-stage trials are successful, the next step is to apply for regulatory approval with the various agencies around the world.   [26:40] Dr. Lee shares one takeaway for listeners to remember. Think of TSLP as an alarm that turns on inflammation. He compares TSLP to turning on an alarm during a robbery. There are multiple steps designed to protect the bank and the money.   [27:20] To extend that analogy, with TSLP, once you turn it on, all these other steps are going to happen. Inflammation is designed to protect the body. It's a protective response. If there's an infection, it can clear the infection.   [27:38] If the infection persists, as in HIV, the immune response, which is protective and beneficial, eventually becomes damaging. It becomes dysfunctional. In EoE, if you continually eat the allergic food, the inflammation becomes damaging to the esophagus.   [28:27] Long-term inflammation leads to replacing the normal esophageal tissue with fibrotic tissue, and that's why the esophagus eventually gets hardened and less able to let the food go through.   [28:40] In respiratory diseases, the soft tissue of the lung gets replaced with thicker tissue, and the lung is not able to expand.   [28:54] Dr. Lee says he people to think about TSLP as this master alarm switch. We hope that if you could turn off that TSLP, you could then avoid a lot of the complications that we see with chronic inflammation in these conditions.   [29:14] We're hopeful that you could even take away the symptoms that you see in these diseases, make patients feel better, and with extended treatment, you could begin to reverse some of the damage resulting from inflammation.   [29:32] Ryan likes that analogy and how Dr. Lee has concisely explained these complicated concepts.   [29:51] Dr. Lee thanks Holly and Ryan and adds one more plea to listeners. Please consider getting involved with research. Clinical trials cannot be done without patients. We need patients to advance new treatments.   [30:27] Researchers like Dr. Lee spend a lot of time thinking about how to make the studies not only informative but also fair to patients who decide to become involved. It's a lot of work and a fair amount of time commitment.   [30:44] If you don't want to be in a study, you can help by being on a patient feedback panel and reviewing protocols and informed consents. Follow your interests. Think about getting involved with research, however you can.   [31:06] Ryan and Holly are very grateful for the community, with so many wonderful clinicians and researchers, and so many patients who are willing to volunteer their time and their data to help researchers find better solutions going forward.   [31:26] Ryan thanks Dr. Lee for coming on and putting out that call to action. It's a great reminder for listeners and the patients in the community to look for those opportunities. Chat with your physician. Go to APFED's website. There's a link to active clinical trials.   [31:47] For our listeners who want to learn more about eosinophilic disorders, we encourage you to visit apfed.org and check out the links in the show notes below.   [31:53] For those looking to find specialists who treat eosinophilic disorders, we encourage you to use APFED's Specialist Finder at apfed.org/specialist.   [32:01] If you'd like to connect with others impacted by eosinophilic diseases, please join APFED's online community on the Inspire Network at apfed.org/connections.   [32:11] Ryan thanks Dr. Andrew Lee for joining us today.

What does gentrification have to do with authoritarianism? In this episode, Kelly talks with organizer and author Andrew Lee about how displacement, surveillance, and “quality of life” policing function as tools of social control—and why housing struggles are class struggles. “Anti-displacement fights are interesting,” Lee says, “because of the revolutionary implications of what's really an incredibly modest demand.” You can find a transcript and show notes (including links to resources) here: truthout.org/series/movement-memos/ If you would like to support the show, you can donate here: bit.ly/TODonate If you would like to receive Truthout's newsletter, please sign up: bit.ly/TOnewsletter

In this episode of The New Stack Agents, Andrew Lee, co-founder of Shortwave and Firebase, discusses the evolution of his Gmail-centric email client into an AI-first platform. Initially launched in 2020 with traditional improvements like better threading and search, Shortwave pivoted to agentic AI after the rise of large language models (LLMs). Early features like summarization and translation garnered hype but lacked deep utility. However, as models improved in 2023—especially Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 3.5—Shortwave leaned heavily into tool-calling agents that could execute complex, multi-step tasks autonomously. Lee notes Anthropic's lead in this area, especially in chaining tools intelligently, unlike earlier models from OpenAI. Still, challenges remain with managing large numbers of tools without breaking model reasoning. Looking ahead, Lee envisions AI that can take proactive actions—like responding to emails—and dynamically generate interfaces tailored to tasks in real-time. This shift could fundamentally reshape how productivity apps work, with Shortwave aiming to be at the forefront of that transformation.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest insights of the power AI at scale:Why Streaming Is the Power Grid for AI-Native Data PlatformsCompanies Must Embrace BeSpoke AI Designed for IT WorkflowsJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

"72 juveniles is 28% of the current population of sunflower stars under human care in California. More than a quarter of them are at our facility. If you had asked us that question about a year and a half ago. The answer would be zero at our facility, and the answer across California would be six total." - Andrew Lee In 2013, one of the largest marine disease outbreaks on record, sea star wasting syndrome swept through echinoderm populations, laying waste to sunflower stars across their historic range. Once common in California, sunflower stars are now functionally extinct there. This devastating population crash is one of the leading drivers of the 96% decline in kelp forest cover in Northern California in the last decade, as sunflower stars are no longer prowling rocky reefs and scaring purple urchins, who graze on kelp.   Sunflower Star Laboratory was founded by a group of concerned citizens who watched California's kelp disappear before their eyes and were inspired to take action.   This conversation is with Reuven Banks and Andrew Lee from Sunflower Star Laboratory, where they are actively growing sunflower stars with the aim to bring the stars and the kelp forests back to the ocean.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 147-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 20,691 on turnover of $4.8-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan saw earlier gains erased to close little changed Thursday as contract chipmaker TSMC suffered last-ditch selling amid lingering concerns over the possibility of tariffs threatened by U.S. President Donald Trump. Non-tech stocks largely moved in weakness, but so-called "military concept stocks continued to attract rotational buying as aircraft maintenance services provider Air Asia Co. soared 10 percent, the maximum daily increase. Analysts say caution about Trump's tariffs on semiconductors remain, prompting (推動) investors to lock in profits with TSMC as their major target. Taiwan and Estonia sign MOUs on aerospace and defense collaboration A Taiwanese business delegation has signed two memoranda of understanding with Estonia to facilitate collaboration between aerospace and defense industries. According to the Taipei Mission in the Republic of Latvia, the delegation signed the M-O-Us with the Estonian Defence and Aerospace Industry Association and the Estonia Aviation Cluster in Tallinn. Taiwan's top envoy to Estonia, Andrew Lee is describing the signing of the deals as an important step for collaboration (合作) between the two countries - and one that opens a new chapter for collaboration between the two countries on drones, aerospace and related industries. The delegation to Estonia was led by Hu Kai-hong of the Taiwan Excellence Drone International Business Opportunities Alliance. Israel Closes UNRWA Schools Israel has closed six U.N. schools in east Jerusalem, forcing students to leave early and throwing the education of more than 800 students into question. Last month, heavily armed Israeli police and Education Ministry officials ordered six schools in east Jerusalem to close within 30 days. The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, called UNRWA, runs the six schools. UNRWA also runs schools in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, which continue to operate. Israel claims that UNRWA schools teach antisemitic content and anti-Israel sentiment (觀點), which UNRWA denies. US FEMA Head Dismissed The acting director of the US's Federal Emergency Management Agency is out of a job, a day after he told lawmakers he didn't support disbanding the disaster relief agency. US President Donald Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem have both recently suggested the agency known as FEMA should be eliminated (廢止). Ira Spitzer reports. Peru Elated on Election of Pope Peruvians are elated after a Catholic cardinal who spent years guiding the faithful in the South American country was elected pope. Pope Leo XIV, elected Thursday, is a dual citizen of the United States and Peru, where he first served as a missionary and then as an archbishop. That made him the first pope from each country. In Peru's capital, Lima, the bells of the cathedral rang after Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost was announced as Pope Francis' successor. People outside the church quickly expressed their desire (希望，想要) for a papal visit at one point. That was the I.C.R.T.

Am 23. Juni 2016 stimmte eine knappe Mehrheit der Briten für den Austritt Englands, Schottlands, Nordirlands und Wales' aus der Europäischen Union. Vor 5 Jahren wurde der Brexit dann vollzogen. Große Hoffnungen lagen auf der neuen Unabhängigkeit; mehr Wachstum, weniger Flüchtlinge, größere Freiheit von EU-Regulierungen. Was ist daraus geworden? Die Wirtschaft schwächelt, die aktuelle Regierung wünscht sich wieder engere Handelsbeziehungen zur EU, und mehr als die Hälfte der Briten sagen heute in Umfragen, dass der Brexit ein Fehler war. Was heißt das für die Zukunft von Großbritannien? Was sagt es über die Bedeutung der Europäischen Union? Und wie blicken in Deutschland lebende Briten auf diese Situation? Darüber sprechen wir mit der ARD-Korrespondentin Annette Dittert, dem Wirtschaftswissenschaftler Prof. Dr. Andrew Lee, dem Intendanten des English Theater in Frankfurt Daniel Nicolai und dem Politikwissenschaftler Prof. Dr. Roland Sturm. Podcast-Tipp: punktEU - der Europa-Podcast von WDR 5 Der Podcast mit Kathrin Schmid schaut hinter den Politik-Vorhang Europas. Wer zieht die Fäden in der EU - und wohin?

On this episode of The Response, we're joined by author and organizer Andrew Lee. In his book Defying Displacement: Urban Recomposition and Social War, Andrew writes about how gentrification is often seen as inevitable or automatic and an “economic, social plan.”  In that sense, the resulting displacement of people from their homes and communities is, in essence, a planned disaster. Andrew brings a nuanced perspective to this issue, drawing from his work and experiences in neighborhoods facing rapid economic transformation.  Gentrification, as he sees it, is not just about rising rents or new developments but about the displacement of people, histories, and cultures that have shaped these communities for generations. Much like our previous episodes—whether discussing mutual aid in disaster-hit regions or grassroots movements reclaiming public space—this conversation reminds us that collective action is a powerful tool. Andrew shares stories of resistance: how communities are organizing to protect their homes, create alternative housing models, and ensure that development serves the people already rooted in these spaces. Thanks for tuning into The Response. We're back after an unanticipated summer break. We love making this show, but have a small team at Shareable, and often have to redirect our efforts to other parts of our work.

Writer and organizer Andrew Lee joins me to discuss their new book Defying Displacement: Urban Recomposition and Social War, published through AK Press and the Institute for Anarchist Studies. Defying Displacement grounds itself in one of the main sites of contemporary class struggle: communities facing the multi-headed hydra of gentrification. Andrew Lee directs our attention to the on-the-ground realities of urban displacement, and in turn, provides a new theory of the state and capitalism in the 21st century. “And all of a sudden, to maintain what we have—not improve, not get benefits. This isn't the ‘60s. We aren't talking about, give us ethnic studies and a health clinic. It's much worse than that. It's: don't displace me. Let me keep paying rent to my landlord; let me keep paying property taxes on the family home; let me keep working a bad job; just don't make my rent so high that my community is obliterated. “And the people that brings us into conflict with aren't just a local regional rich dude. More and more, they are global financial institutions and the entirety of the political system and civil society. In the places where we live, they're bringing us into open conflict with the foundation of capitalist society, and that is what we need to navigate through. And if we can, we can win everything.” Andrew Lee is a writer and organizer exploring the intersection between land, home, resistance, and popular power. Their work has been published in outlets including Teen Vogue, The New Inquiry, and YES! Magazine.

We're sharing a recent chat with Andrew Lee (instagram / tiktok), author of the book Defying Displacement: Urban Recomposition and Social War, released by AK Press on February 6th 2024. Andrew and I talk about gentrification, speculation and financialization of houses, the destruction of communities by racial capitalism and the state, and some methods used to fight back and stay put. Andrew shouts out Decolonize Philly as a project to pay attention to. Housecleaning Weekly, we work to bring you and our wider audience, including over the radio waves, conversations that you won't hear many other places. And we operate at a minimal cost, paying for transcription, printing, mailing, web hosting to make sure that information is easier translatable and accessible, including to our comrades behind bars. The most regular way that we fund that is from the patreon. Our patreon is currently below supporting our monthly operating costs of around $500, so we're asking folks on the fence of supporting this project who have a patreon account to kick in and help at $3 or more a month. If you don't have a patreon, we do have a liberapay you can psuedonymously kick us money from or set up a recurring payment from paypal and we also can take money via venmo or stripe. If you haven't supported us before or haven't for a while now and can afford to, we'd really appreciate the help. And if you're already supporting us or have in the past in various ways, thank you. . ... . .. Featured Track: Doin It (instrumental) by LL Cool J
