Is the human microbiome an endangered species? Dr. Martin Blaser, author of "Missing Microbes: How the Overuse of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues," has also been featured in a documentary, The Invisible Extinction, that explores the dire consequences of our depleted microbiomes. Antibiotic overuse, C-sections, lack of breast-feeding, ultra-processed food, lack of exposure to nature, and chlorinated water conspire to deplete our bodies of beneficial bacteria; these imbalances in intestinal flora have profound, far-reaching effects, not just on digestive disorders, but on immunity, metabolism, and brain function. Conditions like insulin resistance, obesity, Parkinson's Disease, depression and anxiety, and many more have been linked to microbiome deficits. What lessons do stool samples from indigenous peoples offer us? There may be a transgenerational effect of microbiome depletion. Dr. Blaser has gone so far as to advocate a Microbiome Vault to preserve our bacterial heritage. Are fecal transplants and poop pills the answer? “Vaginal seeding”? What role do high-fiber diets play? Are fermented foods beneficial? What about probiotics? Dr. Blaser describes measures we need to take now to recover our microbial diversity.

MIT professor Thomas Levenson is one of America's most celebrated science writers and filmmakers. In his upcoming new book, So Very Small, Levenson charts the history of germ theory to underline how modern scientific research has changed the world and saved tens of millions of lives. Not surprisingly, then, Levenson expresses deep concern about the Trump administration's attacks on the American scientific establishment, particularly funding cuts affecting critical research. He warns against growing the anti-vaccine ideology, explaining how periods of rapid social change often trigger the kind of anti-expertise attitudes articulated by paranoid reactionaries like RFK Jr. FIVE TAKEAWAYS* Science in America is under assault by the Trump administration through funding cuts to critical research institutions like NIH, which doesn't just affect current work but dismantles research infrastructure that takes years to build.* Levenson's book "So Very Small" traces how humans discovered microbes and developed treatments for infectious diseases, showing both scientific progress and persistent resistance to medical innovations like vaccines.* Anti-vaccine sentiment has grown from fringe to mainstream, with RFK Jr.'s appointment as head of health policy representing a serious threat to public health despite the overwhelming evidence supporting vaccine efficacy.* The COVID pandemic demonstrated both scientific triumph (developing vaccines in record time) and societal division, reflecting a pattern where rapid social change often triggers anti-expertise attitudes.* Antibiotic resistance represents a growing crisis where previously curable infections are becoming untreatable, not because of scientific failure but because of social choices about how we've deployed these medications.Thomas Levenson is a professor of science writing at MIT. He is the author of several books, including So Very Small, Money for Nothing, The Hunt for Vulcan, Einstein in Berlin, and Newton and the Counterfeiter: The Unknown Detective Career of the World's Greatest Scientist. He has also made ten feature-length documentaries (including a two-hour Nova program on Einstein) for which he has won numerous awards.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

SpaceTime Series 28 Episode 43The Astronomy, Space and Science News PodcastExploring Venusian Volcanoes, the End of the Gaia Mission, and SpaceX's Historic Polar Orbit LaunchIn this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the geological mysteries of Venus, where new research suggests that convection in its crust may explain the planet's numerous volcanoes. Unlike Earth, which supports life, Venus is a harsh environment with extreme temperatures and a crushing atmosphere. We discuss how this convection could indicate a more active geological landscape than previously understood, shedding light on the planet's evolution.The Conclusion of the Gaia MissionNext, we mark the end of an era as the European Space Agency officially powers down the Gaia spacecraft. After over a decade of groundbreaking work mapping the Milky Way, Gaia has provided invaluable data that has transformed our understanding of the galaxy. We highlight the mission's key achievements and the lasting legacy of its extensive data archive that will continue to inform astronomical research for years to come.SpaceX's Manned Polar Orbit MissionAdditionally, we celebrate SpaceX's successful launch of its first manned mission to orbit above the Earth's poles. This historic flight, which included a variety of scientific experiments, showcases the capabilities of modern space travel and the potential for future polar exploration. We detail the mission's objectives, the crew's experiences, and the significance of this achievement in the context of human spaceflight.00:00 Space Time Series 28 Episode 43 for broadcast on 9 April 202500:49 New study on volcanic activity on Venus06:30 Implications of convection in Venus's crust12:15 The end of the Gaia mission and its contributions18:00 Highlights of Gaia's discoveries and data legacy22:45 SpaceX's first manned polar orbit mission27:00 Summary of recent space exploration milestones30:15 Science report: Antibiotic use in livestock and environmental impactswww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com

Antibiotics save lives. But when the supplies run low or bacteria become resistant, the risks grow — especially in developing countries. On this episode of The Weekly Tradecast, UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) economist Bruno Casella explores the challenges of securing essential antibiotics, the impact of limited local production, and how better investment and coordination can strengthen supply chains. Join us to discuss UNCTAD's findings on antibiotic shortages in East Africa and the urgent need for action.

Father Marcel Taillon joins Patrick to discuss lying. (3:15) Lying is not a joke, Christ never lied. We all need to tell the truth and know the truth that is Christ (3:41) April Fool's Day done in the right sense is good thing, we just don’t want to scare or hurt someone by lying. (5:39) Peter denied Christ and lied. What might tempt us to not tell the truth. (5:58) St. Thomas Moore remained silent during his trial and so did Jesus. Thomas Moore did not deny his love for the Church or his live for the king. Silence can be a way of not denying the truth and avoiding being overly defensive. (10:54) Part of avoiding lying is to avoid over emphasizing our opinion of someone online and on social media even if it is true (11:15) Social media raises the potential to hurt and confuse people so we must be on guard. (13:06) Lying puts up roadblocks to true reconciliation (19:46) the Antibiotic of lying is mercy (22:17) Break 1 (24:00) Henry - I have a problem with lying. Compulsive lying. I will take stuff and stretch the excuse. My mom always finds out. (28:40) Jim Gaffigan (31:46) Tonya - My husband has a gambling problem. He says everybody lies and everybody tries to con everybody. Is everybody really that way? I don't believe that. (39:01) Break 2 (40:31) Scott - My brother and I were in a feud. I read 1 John 4-20 and that turned it all around for me. We're doing great now and are reconciled. (46:32) Al - My husband and lying. I can't trust him anymore. I ask him if he's lying, but I know he is. It's coming so easy and it's breaking my heart.

In this episode:00:46 Newly discovered molecule shows potent antibiotic activityResearchers have identified a new molecule with antibiotic activity against a range of disease-causing bacteria, including those resistant to existing drugs. The new molecule — isolated from soil samples taken from a laboratory technician's garden — is called lariocidin due to its lasso-shaped structure. The team say that in addition to its potent antibiotic activity, the molecule also shows low toxicity towards human cells, making it a promising molecule in the fight against drug-resistant infections.Research Article: Jangra et al.09:36 Research HighlightsA reduction in ships' sulfur emissions linked to a steep drop in thunderclouds, and the epic sea-voyage that let iguanas reach Fiji.Research Highlight: Ship-pollution cuts have an electrifying effect: less lightning at seaResearch Highlight: Iguanas reached Fiji by floating 8,000 kilometres across the sea13:54 Assessing the nuances of humans' biodiversity impactsA huge study analysing data from thousands of research articles has shown that the human impacts on biodiversity are large but are in some cases context dependent. The new study reveals that at larger scales, communities of living things are becoming more similar due to human influence, but at the smaller scale they are becoming more different. "These are generally unwanted effects on biodiversity," says study author Florian Altermatt, "this is one more very strong argument that stopping and reducing these pressures to halt and reverse biodiversity declines is needed."Research article: Keck et al.21:45 Briefing ChatHow a proposed green-energy facility in Chile could increase light pollution at one of the world's most powerful telescopes, and how a calving Antarctic iceberg revealed an unseen aquatic ecosystem.Nature: Light pollution threatens fleet of world-class telescopes in Atacama DesertScientific American: Stunning Antarctic Sea Creatures Discovered after Iceberg Breaks AwaySubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.

Keywords dental infection, toothache, oral surgery, antibiotics, patient care, infection progression, surgical intervention, recovery, dental health, emergency care summary In this conversation, Dr. Serv Wahan discusses a complex case of a dental infection that began with a simple toothache and escalated into a serious condition requiring surgical intervention. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing symptoms, the risks associated with tooth infections, and the critical role of timely medical care. The discussion covers the patient's journey through various treatments, the challenges faced, and the eventual recovery, highlighting key lessons learned in dental health management. takeaways Toothaches can lead to serious infections if untreated. Recognizing symptoms early is crucial for effective treatment. Bacteria from dental infections can spread to other parts of the body. Antibiotic treatment must be monitored for effectiveness. Surgical intervention may be necessary in severe cases. Trismus can indicate a serious underlying issue. Emergency care may be required for dental infections. Patient history is important in diagnosing infections. Experience plays a vital role in assessing patient conditions. Follow-up care is essential to prevent complications.
