What happens when a febrile infant presents at 61 days old? Are they suddenly low risk for invasive bacterial infections? In this episode, we explore the gray zone of managing febrile infants aged 61–90 days with the help of two new clinical prediction rules from PECARN. Joining us are two powerhouses in pediatric emergency medicine: Dr. Nate Kuppermann and Dr. Paul Aronson, who walk us through their recent study published in Pediatrics. We discuss why prior research has traditionally stopped at 60 days, what the new data shows about risk in this slightly older age group, and how these rules might help guide clinical decision-making. This study fills a long-standing gap—but should we start using the rules now? Tune in for a nuanced discussion on sensitivity, missed cases, practical application, and the future of risk stratification in young infants with fever. What is your practice in terms of work-up of 2-3 month old febrile infants? Will this change what you do?

Nestled in the heart of Winchester, Virginia, the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley (MSV) is more than just a repository of art and history—it's a vibrant, ever-evolving community hub. In this episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael sat down with Julie Armel, the museum's Deputy Director of Marketing and Communications, to uncover the stories, exhibits, and people that make the MSV a regional treasure. The conversation opens with a sense of homecoming, as Janet recalls her long-standing relationship with the museum and marvels at its transformation over the past two decades. Julie offers listeners a sweeping overview: the MSV spans nearly 200 acres, featuring the largest green space and only working farm within Winchester's city limits. Visitors can explore formal gardens, the historic Glen Burnie House, and a dynamic galleries building that tells the story of the Shenandoah Valley through permanent and rotating exhibitions. One of the museum's standout features is its commitment to change and innovation. Julie describes the ever-shifting landscape of outdoor exhibits, from the whimsical “Gardens of Glass” to the current showstopper: “Scraposaurs,” a collection of giant prehistoric creatures crafted from scrap metal. These imaginative sculptures, including a T-Rex with John Deere rotary hoe teeth and a triceratops built on a Chevy truck frame, delight families and art lovers alike. The MSV's trails double as an art park, dotted with sculptures from local and internationally renowned artists, ensuring that every visit offers something new. Accessibility and community engagement are at the core of the MSV's mission. Julie highlights programs like “Museums for All,” which provides free admission to families on food assistance, and special events such as Dino Con, where dinosaur-themed attire earns free entry. The museum also offers free gallery admission on Wednesdays and always welcomes children under 12 at no charge. Volunteers play a vital role, contributing thousands of hours to events like Garden Lights, a spectacular annual display of LED flowers and immersive art that draws crowds from across the region. Inside, the museum's galleries are equally dynamic. Janet and Julie discuss recent and upcoming exhibitions, including a Frida Kahlo photography show and “Curated Chaos,” which offers a rare glimpse into the museum's collection storage. The MSV's educational programming is robust, with teen art clubs, workshops, and interactive activities designed to engage visitors of all ages and backgrounds. The museum's makerspace invites creativity, while membership programs and volunteer opportunities foster a sense of belonging and shared purpose. Throughout the conversation, a recurring theme emerges: the MSV is a place where history, art, and community intersect. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a longtime supporter, the museum offers a welcoming space to learn, create, and connect. As Julie notes, “There's something for everyone here.” With its blend of tradition and innovation, the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley stands as a testament to the power of cultural institutions to enrich and inspire their communities.

In early September 2025, Nepal witnessed an extraordinary week of upheaval that many now refer to as the ‘five-day revolution'. Within the span of a single week, youth-led ‘Gen Z' protests spread across Kathmandu and other major cities, the prime minister and his government resigned, the army intervened, parliament was dissolved, and Nepal's new (and first female) interim prime minister was sworn in. The events revealed deep frustrations among young Nepalis with corruption, socioeconomic exclusion, and a lack of political accountability. In this episode of the Nordic Asia Podcast, Dr. Jeevan Baniya joins host Hanna Geschewski to explore the deeper forces behind this moment. They discuss the grievances that brought young Nepalis to the streets, why these long-standing frustrations erupted now, and how the ‘Gen Z' protests should be understood in relation to questions of representation and political change. The conversation also considers the diversity within Nepal's youth movement and the pathways through which young people may shape politics in the aftermath of the uprising. Jeevan Baniya is a political scientist and Deputy Director of the research institute Social Science Baha in Kathmandu, Nepal. Hanna Geschewski is a PhD researcher in Human Geography at the Chr. Michelsen Institute and the University of Bergen in Norway. Her work focuses on migration, displacement and socio-environmental change in the Himalayan region and South Asia.

In early September 2025, Nepal witnessed an extraordinary week of upheaval that many now refer to as the ‘five-day revolution'. Within the span of a single week, youth-led ‘Gen Z' protests spread across Kathmandu and other major cities, the prime minister and his government resigned, the army intervened, parliament was dissolved, and Nepal's new (and first female) interim prime minister was sworn in. The events revealed deep frustrations among young Nepalis with corruption, socioeconomic exclusion, and a lack of political accountability. In this episode of the Nordic Asia Podcast, Dr. Jeevan Baniya joins host Hanna Geschewski to explore the deeper forces behind this moment. They discuss the grievances that brought young Nepalis to the streets, why these long-standing frustrations erupted now, and how the ‘Gen Z' protests should be understood in relation to questions of representation and political change. The conversation also considers the diversity within Nepal's youth movement and the pathways through which young people may shape politics in the aftermath of the uprising. Jeevan Baniya is a political scientist and Deputy Director of the research institute Social Science Baha in Kathmandu, Nepal. Hanna Geschewski is a PhD researcher in Human Geography at the Chr. Michelsen Institute and the University of Bergen in Norway. Her work focuses on migration, displacement and socio-environmental change in the Himalayan region and South Asia.

Tech transfer has long been a critical but often overlooked part of the intellectual property system. For decades, the Bayh-Dole Act has guided how federally funded research moves from university labs into the marketplace. The system has generated hundreds of thousands of inventions and startups — and, as Laura Peter notes, led to nearly $2 trillion in economic growth through tech transfer. While widely regarded as a success, new march-in rights and “patent revenue sharing” proposals from policymakers seek to change that.In this episode of the Clause 8 Podcast, Eli spoke with Laura Peter, former Deputy Director of the USPTO in the first Trump administration and current Executive Director of Research Commercialization and Partnerships at UNC Charlotte. With experience in Silicon Valley, government, and academia, Laura brings a unique perspective to the challenges and opportunities facing tech transfer today.They cover:* How Laura first met Andrei Iancu — and how that led to her appointment as Deputy Director when he was chosen as the Director of the USPTO.* Lessons learned working in the first Trump administration about what to expect on the IP policy front this time around.* The distinct role patents play for startups versus large companies.* The lasting impact of the Bayh-Dole Act and how it reshaped tech transfer.* How funding cuts, private investment pressures, and PTAB swings are affecting university research.* Laura's observation that proposals from the last administration to seize IP rights to lower drug prices haven't been rescinded — and what that could mean for future policy.Why it mattersThe Bayh-Dole framework has been a cornerstone of U.S. innovation for more than forty years. Changes to how federally funded research is commercialized — whether through funding cuts, new government claims on patents, or expanded march-in rights — could redefine the balance between universities, startups, and industry. Laura's perspective highlights not only the risks and opportunities, but also how unresolved policy proposals on government seizure of IP could reshape future debates.
