Wonder what your child's doodles mean?Dr. Josephine Deguara joins me to discuss how children often use drawing as an early language to express thoughts and emotions before they can fully use words. We talk about how adults should avoid interpreting drawings themselves and instead ask open-ended questions to understand the child's meaning. When children are given time, materials, and attentive listeners, drawing helps them process feelings, tell stories, and explore their identity.Prof Josephine Deguara is an Associate Professor and researcher in the Department of Early Childhood and Primary Education at the University of Malta. Her work focuses on early childhood pedagogy, policy, and practice, with a particular interest in how children express their thinking and experiences through drawing. She uses children's drawings as a way of understanding identity, belonging, play, and children's funds of knowledge through participatory, rights-based research approaches. Longing for more community on your parenting journey? I am launching a community JUST FOR YOU! It's time for us to see each other face to virtual face, hear each other in live time, so that we can really connect deeply and help each other through those challenging and celebratory moments that is toddlerhood.

İktidarın “Terörsüz Türkiye” sloganıyla başlattığı sürecin Meclis ayağını oluşturan “Milli Dayanışma, Kardeşlik ve Demokrasi Komisyonu” 18 Şubat'ta çalışmalarını bir rapor yayınlayarak neticelendirdi. 21 toplantının 137 kurum temsilcisi ve kişinin dinlendiği görüşmelerin ardından komisyondan Kürt sorununun çözümü için ne çıktı diye soracak olursanız, cevap sıfıra sıfır elde var sıfır. Rapor “Kürt sorunu” kavramını dahi zikretmiyor. Komisyon raporuna hayır oyu veren TİP ve EMEP haklı olarak sorunun adını dahi koymayan bir metni nasıl kabul edelim dediler. Ama esas sorun başka yerde. Bu komisyonun herhangi bir aşamada Kürt sorununun çözümü için kurulduğu söylendi mi? Başta DEM Parti olmak üzere çözüm niyetiyle bu komisyona katılanlar olmuşsa da komisyonu bağlayan böyle bir tanımlama kayda geçti mi? Eğer cevap hayır ise esas sorun komisyona böyle bir misyon atfetmenin kendisinde değil mi?Aslında en baştan itibaren durum tam tersiydi. MHP de AKP de bu meselenin Kürt sorununun çözümü ile ilgisi olmadığını, esas konunun silah bıraktırma ve “terörsüz Türkiye” hedefi olduğunu söylüyor. Ama çok daha önemlisi sürecin diğer ana aktörü olan ve kendisine Kürt hareketi nezdinde temsiliyet gücü atfedilen Öcalan da en baştan açıkça “Kürt sorunu artık çözülmüştür” saptamasıyla işe girişiyor. O halde bu sürecin devamı olan komisyondan Kürt sorununun çözümü namına herhangi bir şey beklemenin iler tutar bir yanı olabilir mi? Elbette ki yoktur. İyi niyetle bu sürece Kürt sorununun çözümü doğrultusunda müdahale edilmek istenmişse de niyetle eylem birbirini tutmuyor. Komisyona katılmaktan başlayarak, komisyon çalışmalarının tamamı (muhalefet şerhleri, itirazlar ve en son rapora hayır oyu vermek dahil!); Bahçeli'nin inisiyatifi ile başlayan ve adım adım istibdadın bir siyaseti haline gelen sömürgeci burjuvazinin yayılmacı politikalarını meşrulaştırmaya ve bu politikaları hayata geçirmek üzere yürütülen gizli diplomasiye paravan olmaya yaramıştır.

Ever feel like your toddler has "selective listening"? In this episode I share how toddlers may struggle to follow directions when their receptive language skills or emotional regulation are not fully developed. Children move through three brain states—physical safety, emotional safety, and learning, and they can only process instructions and learn when they feel both safe and loved.

Last weekend, the United States and Israel started a war with Iran. The Trump administration has offered no real or convincing reason why they have dragged the country into war except “Israel was going to do it anyway,” and the president has no discernible war plan. Many have commented that this war seems to be an expression of pure power, undertaken by Trump largely because he can. Have we entered a new phase in malignant American foreign policy or is this just a striking “mask off” moment? In this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents editor-at-large Peter Beinart speaks with Aslı Ü. Bâli, the Howard M. Holtzmann Professor of Law at Yale and a non-resident fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, about what the war in Iran signals about the kind of global power the US has become, whether it represents rupture or continuity in the history of US imperialism, and what it means for the stability of the Middle East and the world.This episode first appeared on the Beinart Notebook on Substack. Thanks to Daniel Kaufman for editing help and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Further Reading“The Path to the Trump Doctrine,” Aslı Ü. Bâli and Aziz Rana, Boston ReviewTranscript forthcoming.

All views are my own, not Anthropic's. This post assumes Anthropic's announcement of RSP v3.0 as background. Today, Anthropic released its Responsible Scaling Policy 3.0. The official announcement discusses the high-level thinking behind it. This is a more detailed post giving my own takes on the update. First, the big picture: I expect some people will be upset about the move away from a “hard commitments”/”binding ourselves to the mast” vibe. (Anthropic has always had the ability to revise the RSP, and we've always had language in there specifically flagging that we might revise away key commitments in a situation where other AI developers aren't adhering to similar commitments. But it's been easy to get the impression that the RSP is “binding ourselves to the mast” and committing to unilaterally pause AI development and deployment under some conditions, and Anthropic is responsible for that.) I take significant responsibility for this change. I have been pushing for this change for about a year now, and have led the way in developing the new RSP. I am in favor of nearly everything about the changes we're making. I am excited about the Roadmap, the Risk Reports, the move toward external [...] ---Outline:(05:32) How it started: the original goals of RSPs(11:25) How its going: the good and the bad(11:51) A note on my general orientation toward this topic(14:56) Goal 1: forcing functions for improved risk mitigations(15:02) A partial success story: robustness to jailbreaks for particular uses of concern, in line with the ASL-3 deployment standard(18:24) A mixed success/failure story: impact on information security(20:42) ASL-4 and ASL-5 prep: the wrong incentives(25:00) When forcing functions do and dont work well(27:52) Goal 2 (testbed for practices and policies that can feed into regulation)(29:24) Goal 3 (working toward consensus and common knowledge about AI risks and potential mitigations)(30:59) RSP v3s attempt to amplify the good and reduce the bad(36:01) Do these benefits apply only to the most safety-oriented companies?(37:40) A revised, but not overturned, vision for RSPs(39:08) Q&A(39:10) On the move away from implied unilateral commitments(39:15) Is RSP v3 proactively sending a race-to-the-bottom signal? Why be the first company to explicitly abandon the high ambition for achieving low levels of risk?(40:34) How sure are you that a voluntary industry-wide pause cant happen? Are you worried about signaling that youll be the first to defect in a prisoners dilemma?(42:03) How sure are you that you cant actually sprint to achieve the level of information security, alignment science understanding, and deployment safeguards needed to make arbitrarily powerful AI systems low-risk?(43:49) What message will this change send to regulators? Will it make ambitious regulation less likely by making companies commitments to low risk look less serious?(45:10) Why did you have to do this now - couldnt you have waited until the last possible moment to make this change, in case the more ambitious risk mitigations ended up working out?(46:03) Could you have drafted the new RSP, then waited until you had to invoke your escape clause and introduced it then? Or introduced the new RSP as what we will do if we invoke our escape clause?(47:29) The new Risk Reports and Roadmap are nice, but couldnt you have put them out without also making the key revision of moving away from unilateral commitments?(48:26) Why isnt a unilateral pause a good idea? It could be a big credible signal of danger, which could lead to policy action.(49:37) Could a unilateral pause ever be a good idea? Why not commit to a unilateral pause in cases where it would be a good idea?(50:31) Why didnt you communicate about the change differently? Im worried that the way you framed this will cause audience X to take away message Y.(51:53) Why dont Anthropics and your communications about this have a more alarmed and/or disappointed vibe? I reluctantly concede that this revision makes sense on the merits, but Im sad about it. Arent you?(53:19) On other components of the new RSP(53:24) The new RSPs commitments related to competitors seem vague and weak. Could you add more and/or strengthen these? They dont seem sufficient as-is to provide strong assurance against a prisoners dilemma world where each relevant company wishes it could be more careful, but rushes due to pressure from others.(55:29) Why is external review only required at an extreme capability level? Why not just require it now?(58:06) The new commitments are mostly about Risk Reports and Roadmap - what stops companies from just making these really perfunctory?(59:18) Why isnt the RSP more adversarially designed such that once a company adopts it, it will improve their practices even if nobody at the company values safety at all?(01:00:18) What are the consequences of missing your Roadmap commitments? If they arent dire, will anyone care about them?(01:00:29) OK, but does that apply to other companies too? How will Roadmaps force other companies to get things done?(01:00:40) Why arent the recommendations for industry-wide safety more specific? Why is it built around safety cases instead of ASLs with specific lists of needed risk mitigations?(01:02:06) What is the point of making commitments if you can revise them anytime? --- First published: February 24th, 2026 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/DGZNAGL2FNJfftwgE/responsible-scaling-policy-v3-1 --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

What if your toddler understands far more than they can say—and they've been quietly learning from you since the day they were born?In this episode I explain how toddlers develop receptive language (what they understand) long before they can fully express themselves and have been absorbing words, tone, body language, and environmental cues since birth. I emphasize that communication is a two-way, relational process—what adults express, children receive and interpret, and vice versa—so miscommunication can happen when meanings don't align. The key takeaway is for caregivers to be intentional with their language, energy, and responses, and to celebrate toddlers when they demonstrate understanding, recognizing that early development is a long but powerful growing season.Looking for intentional language scripts you can use with your toddler?Check out my newest free gift to you⁠:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠5 Things Your Toddler Needs to Hear You Say Everyday⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch and listen as your child starts to respond differently to you.March 3, 2026Episode 313A Girl and Her Dog: Why Toddlers Seem 'So Smart' Overnight - Little Linguists Series Part 6About Your Host: Cara Tyrrell, M.Ed. is a mom or three, early childhood author, parent educator, and founder of⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Core4Parenting⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠ A former preschool and kindergarten teacher with degrees in ASL, Linguistics, and Education, she created the Collaborative Parenting Methodology™ to help parents, caregivers, and educators understand the power of intentional language in shaping a child's identity, confidence, and future success.As host of the top-ranking podcast Transforming the Toddler Years, Cara blends science and soul to show adults how to “talk to kids before they can talk back,” turning tantrums into teachable moments and everyday challenges into opportunities for connection.

Trump'ın özel temsilcisi Barrack saldırıdan birkaç gün önce Kuzey Irak'taydı. Orada bazı görüşmeler yapmış. İran'daki ayrılıkçı terör gruplarından taleplerde bulunmuş. Barrack, özellikle Suriye'nin istikrar kazanması sürecinde önemli bir rol oynadı. Bu yüzden İsrail lobisinin hedefindeydi. Ama İran konusunda bölgeyi uçuruma sürükleyecek bir tutum takındı. Aslında o bir pratisyen ve Trump'ın söylediklerini yapıyor. Barrack'ın ayrılıkçı gruplara verdiği mesaja gelmeden önce bazı soruların -perde arkası bilgilerle desteklenmiş- yanıtlarını verelim.

Send a textWe doubt anyone listening to this podcast will be surprised to hear that transgender folks face unique challenges, including social stigma, bullying, and family rejection. Even if we are doing our best as parents to support and love our trans children, most of us are not trans ourselves, and so we can't fully understand the particular difficulties that our children will face in their lives. And that is where organizations like Trans Mentor Project come in. Trans Mentor Project is a national virtual mentoring program that pairs trans/nonbinary mentees with trans/nonbinary adult mentors. Joining us In the Den from TMP are Kyle and Max. Max is currently a mentor with TMP and Kyle has been part of TMP as both a mentee and an intern. Together, they'll be able to tell us more about the program and how we can help get our trans kiddos involved.Special Guest: KyleKyle is a designer and creative strategist whose work centers storytelling and critical inquiry. With a background in education, arts-based research, and trauma-aware peer support, Kyle designs experiences that cultivate connection, expression, and shared meaning. At TMP, Kyle helps shape programs and strategies that empower trans young people—designing zines and community experiences that center their voices, and leading outreach efforts across Southern California. At his core, Kyle is building worlds where people feel valued, welcomed, and free to be who they are.Special Guest: MaxMax is a multidisciplinary theatre artist living in New York City. He has mentored with TMP since 2023. He frequently volunteers with PFLAG NYC's Safe Schools program, visiting middle and high school classes throughout the city to speak about his personal identity as a gay trans man, combat anti-trans disinformation, and promote safety and inclusion in NYC schools. Max is also one half of the producing team behind "Let's Hear It For the Boys: A Transmasc Cabaret," an annual variety show which features an entirely transmasculine and trans man cast, band, creative team and ASL interpreter team and showcases new work by transmasc writers.Links from the Show:Learn More About TMPSubmit art for zines by emailing TMPJoin Mama Dragons TodayIn the Den is made possible by generous donors like you.

Host Victor previews upcoming podcast coverage (The Pitt , Industry finale, DTF St. Louis, Paradise, and Drops of God) and then, with Kim, discusses Drops of God's competition setup as Camille manipulates a winemaker to swap in the Georgian wine, likely straining her relationship with Tomas and causing family fallout.

What's the antidote to anxiety?In this episode, I explain that energy—especially nonverbal communication—plays a powerful role in how adults connect with toddlers. Fear, anxiety, and worry about new situations or repeated challenging routines (like naptime) subtly shape our tone, body language, and facial expressions, which children quickly mirror. Rather than trying to eliminate anxiety by achieving better outcomes, I emphasize that the true antidote to anxiety is acceptance of the moment as it is.

We're bringing back one of our favorite conversations in honor of an extraordinary athlete, mom, and advocate who continues to redefine what's possible.Elana Meyers Taylor is a five-time Olympian and one of the most decorated athletes in winter sports history. She has earned one gold, three silver, and two bronze Olympic medals for Team USA, and is a four-time World Champion, with two gold medals in both the two-woman and mixed team events. She is also the most decorated Black winter Olympian of all time.But medals are only part of her story.Elana is mom to two boys. Her son Nico has Down syndrome, and both of her sons are deaf. In this episode, she shares what it was like to welcome Nico at the start of the pandemic while continuing to train at the highest level. It's an honest look at motherhood, elite sport, and advocacy.Elana brings her family with her and uses her platform to speak openly about Down syndrome, ASL, and greater inclusion in winter sports.As we replay this episode, we're cheering her on — not just for what she's accomplished, but for how she leads.

Cosa succede se prendiamo un farmaco scaduto? Sappiamo tutti che non andrebbero usati, ma pochi sanno perché. In questo video con il DeNa, spieghiamo in modo semplice e scientifico cosa può accadere quando un medicinale supera la data di scadenza: può diventare pericoloso o semplicemente non fare più effetto? Partiamo dalle basi: come è fatto un farmaco e spieghiamo come viene stabilita la data di scadenza, perché vale solo per confezioni integre e conservate correttamente e come smaltire correttamente i medicinali per evitare rischi per la salute e per l'ambiente.

fWotD Episode 3205: Black American Sign Language Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 12 February 2026, is Black American Sign Language.Black American Sign Language (BASL) or Black Sign Variation (BSV) is a dialect of American Sign Language (ASL) used most commonly by deaf Black Americans in the United States. The divergence from ASL was influenced largely by the segregation of schools in the American South. Like other schools at the time, schools for the deaf were segregated based upon race, creating two language communities among deaf signers: Black deaf signers at Black schools and White deaf signers at White schools. As of the mid 2010s, BASL is still used by signers in the South despite public schools having been legally desegregated since 1954.Linguistically, BASL differs from other varieties of ASL in its phonology, syntax, and vocabulary. BASL tends to have a larger signing space, meaning that some signs are produced further away from the body than in other dialects. Signers of BASL also tend to prefer two-handed variants of signs, while signers of ASL tend to prefer one-handed variants. Some signs are different in BASL as well, with some borrowings from African American English.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:08 UTC on Thursday, 12 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Black American Sign Language on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Aditi.

Did you know how you communicate literally helps design a child's developing brain and sense of self?In this episode I expand on the idea that words are only a small part of communication and how intentional language shapes connection, especially with young children. I outline five connection outcomes for healthy communication—connection, identity-building, emotional regulation, brain engagement, and empowered choice-making—using concrete examples of what this sounds like in everyday moments.

Did you know that only 7% of communication is verbal?In this episode I explore the idea that speech is only 7% of communication, while 93% comes from nonverbal cues like tone, facial expressions, body language, and energy. I share how infants, toddlers, and even adults communicate meaningfully long before or beyond words, and how children are especially sensitive to these signals.

Jo Haas and Cynthia Torp join us to discuss their collaboration on The Dot Experience, the American Printing House for the Blind's (APH) reimagined museum set to open in Louisville in October 2026. Designed around an unprecedented commitment to inclusive design, The Dot Experience aims to set a new global standard for accessibility in museums.Named in homage to the six-dot system of Braille, The Dot Experience is about changing perspectives. Through powerful personal stories, hands-on interactive experiences, and innovations shaped by blind and low-vision collaborators including archival material from Helen Keller, the museum invites visitors to rethink accessibility and consider how each of us can help create a more inclusive world.Jo Haas is Vice President of Advancement for The Dot Experience, where she is leading the team that will reshape the public's understanding of blindness and disability through immersive, tactile learning. Her work reflects a career-long commitment to creativity, collaboration, and redefining inclusion in practice.Cynthia Torp is the sole owner of Solid Light and has supervised the creation of unforgettable visitor experiences for museums, corporations, non-profits, universities, and visitor centers for over 40 years. Her expertise in storytelling coupled with her mastery of design and fabrication have helped her make an indelible mark on the museum and cultural world.We talk about: - We unpack the meaning of “nothing about us, without us” and how the project team reworked traditional project management to support inclusive reviews from blind and low-vision stakeholders. Cynthia shares how prototyping and focus groups continuously challenged the team's design assumptions.- Jo walks us through the creation of tactile replicas of archival objects, revealing how user feedback reshaped scale, detail, and mounting to produce touch-based experiences that are durable while being intuitive, dignified, and deeply meaningful. - We dive deep into the design systems behind the museum, exploring how Solid Light balanced redundancy through tactile graphics, Braille, audio narration, QR codes, ASL, captions, visual descriptions, along with architectural tools like flooring, wayfinding, tactile maps, and high contrast graphics.- The episode challenges architects and designers to rethink accessibility and sets The Dot Experience as a precedent for inclusive museum and exhibit design.>>>Connect with Jo and Cynthia of The Dot Experience: The Dot Experience Website: https://thedotexperience.org/Solid Light Website: https://solidlight-inc.com/work/american-printing-house-for-the-blind/American Printing House for the Blind LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/american-printing-house-for-the-blind/KET's NewsWAVE 3 NewsSpectrum News 1Museum Magazine>>>Thank you to our Sponsor:⁠Arcol ⁠is a collaborative building design tool built for modern teams.

Please join us in Silver Spring MD Feb 20 and 21. It's going to be amazing. We're going to Nashville next March 6-7 and we're going to have a great event a Club 1921 we just added on Thursday March 5th for health care providers and patient leaders. All the info is over at diabetes-connetionss.com events/ Okay.. our top story this week: XX   All UK children could be offered screening for type 1 diabetes using a simple finger-prick blood test, say researchers who have been running a large study. This is the ELSA study - Early Surveillance for Autoimmune diabetes, a first of its kind UK study. They tested blood samples from 17,931 children aged 3-13 for autoantibodies, markers of type 1 diabetes that can appear years before symptoms. Families of children found to have early-stage type 1 diabetes received tailored education and ongoing support to prepare for the eventual onset of type 1 diabetes symptoms and to ensure insulin therapy can begin promptly when needed, reducing the chances of needing emergency treatment. Those with one autoantibody also received ongoing support and monitoring.   Some families were also offered teplizumab, the first ever immunotherapy for type 1 diabetes, which can delay the need for insulin by around three years in people with early-stage type 1 diabetes. The second phase has launched and will expand screening to all children in the UK aged 2-17 years, with a focus on younger children (2-3 years) and older teenagers (14-17 years). The research team aims to recruit 30,000 additional children across these new age groups. ELSA 2 will assess how screening can be scaled across the NHS and evaluate its cost-effectiveness. https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/news/2026/childhood-type-1-diabetes-screening-is-effective-and-could-prevent-thousands-of-emergency-diagnoses XX At the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference Dexcom CEO Jake Leach says they're going to launch a new product outside the US. I'll link up that interview, The full quote: "When you look at the outside the U.S., there are a lot of structures that are tiered. Patients have access to different types of products, so we've got a new one that we want to introduce that will add flexibility there. It's based on the G7 platform, just like Dexcom ONE+, but it has a unique experience that's tailored for a subset of users that, today, don't have access to Dexcom." Your guess is as good as mine, but sounds more like a pricing or ordering issue than a new bit of hardware or software. Dexcom will also bring Stelo to some international markets this year. And plans a new mobile app experience for the wearable biosensor meant for people who don't dose insulin. Leach also says G8 will be much smaller and with more capability. but is a few years away. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/dexcom-ceo-jake-leach-2026-roadmap-jpm/ XX A new international consensus statement provides guidance for the use of diabetes technology during pregnancy for women with type 1 diabetes (T1D), type 2 diabetes (T2D), or gestational diabetes (GD).   Organized by the diaTribe Foundation, the document was based on evidence where available, as well as opinion from an international group of experts in endocrinology, diabetes technology, and obstetrics & gynecology, among others.   This is the first set of recommendations specifically addressing the use of diabetes technology in pregnancy – and we'll link it up. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/new-consensus-statement-addresses-diabetes-tech-pregnancy-2026a100020d XX Bariatric surgery beats GLP-1s for type 2 diabetes across income levels. This study was published this month, looking at nearly 300 patients are 4 medical centers. Success here is measured by lower blood glucose levels, higher weight loss (28% vs. 10%), less use of diabetes medications, remission of diabetes to the point of no longer needing to inject insulin, and reduced risk factors for cardiovascular disease.     Bariatric surgery was better than medical therapy across all social backgrounds, they found, and not just in areas of higher deprivation. The ancillary study was smaller, and some of the participants randomized in earlier stages crossed over from medical to surgical treatment, and the reverse. The authors acknowledged and accounted for these limitations, along with the rapid development of more powerful obesity drugs not fully captured in the study. This was a long term study – more than 12 years – and by the end of the study more people were choosing GLP1 medications. One dividing line: If someone hopes to lose 100 pounds, that's more likely with surgery than with medications.  "Ultimately, we need large, long-term, well-designed studies to clarify the best strategy for a given patient." https://www.statnews.com/2026/01/19/diabetes-study-bariatric-surgery-better-than-glp-1s/ XX Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have reported for the first time that a father's exposure to microplastics (MPs) can lead to metabolic problems in his children, including diabetes. This is a mouse study, but it looks at a previously unrecognized way in which environmental pollution may influence the health of future generations. MPs are extremely small plastic fragments, measuring less than 5 millimeters, that form as consumer products and industrial materials break down. Metabolic disorders describe a group of conditions that include elevated blood pressure, high blood sugar, and excess body fat, all of which raise the risk of heart disease and diabetes. The team found that female offspring of male mice exposed to MPs were far more prone to metabolic disorders than offspring of unexposed fathers, even though all offspring received the same high fat diet.     The research team hopes the findings will guide future investigation into how MPs and even smaller nanoplastics affect human development.   https://scitechdaily.com/microplastics-can-rewire-sperm-triggering-diabetes-in-the-next-generation/ XX The FDA has finalized four new recalls for certain lots of Abbott's FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensors due to ongoing safety concerns. We told you about this in November when Abbott says some of its continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors were providing incorrect low glucose warnings. Internal testing identified the issue—carbon building up in the sensors during the manufacturing process—and determined that approximately 3 million CGM sensors were affected. The sensors were distributed in the United States, Canada and several European countries.  When Abbott shared that announcement, the FDA was still reviewing the situation. No recalls had yet been finalized. Now, however, the agency has announced four new Class I recalls.   https://cardiovascularbusiness.com/topics/clinical/heart-health/fda-confirms-recalls-abbott-cgm-sensors-new-lawsuit-alleges-company-concealed-information XX   Insulet brings back it's U.S. Pod recycling program, now making it available to all U.S. customers. The Pod recycling program, offered at no cost to customers, enables users to request a recycling kit online. This allows them to return their used Omnipods. Insulet then decontaminates the returned Pods before transporting them to a company specializing in recycling for electronics and medical products. Insulet began recycling pilot programs in Mass and California and are rolling it out nationwide. Insulet also has "Pod takeback" programs outside the U.S. in several international markets. These programs enable customers to request a takeback kit by contacting their local customer support team.   https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/insulet-expands-us-pod-recycling-program/ XX Up next a new resource for a population at three times the risk for diabetes, but without a lot of access to health information. I The first diabetes information website primarily in ASL has launched. The site includes GIFs and videos on diabetes management and an ASL glossary of diabetes-related terms. This is from University of Utah Health – Called Deaf Diabetes Can Together. Deaf and hard of hearing people are at three times higher risk for diabetes, but access to health information in ASL is limited. https://healthcare.utah.edu/newsroom/news/2026/01/first-diabetes-information-website-asl-launches XX Novo Nordisk ended all work on cell therapies, including a Type 1 diabetes program, in October – and now has found a buyer. Aspect has acquired rights to the assets and giving Novo an option to reengage for later-stage development and commercialization. Novo is helping bankroll Aspect's development of the assets, investing in the company and providing research funding. The arrangement gives Novo a chance to profit from the programs down the line. Novo is eligible for royalties and milestone payments on future product sales and, having handed the reins to Aspect for now, can expand its role in later-stage development and commercialization. The integration will involve the transfer of capabilities and expertise from Novo sites in Denmark and the U.S. to Aspect's Canadian operations. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/novo-nordisk-offloads-diabetes-assets-aspect-amid-cell-therapy-retreat XX XX Lucas Escobar has carved a role by proving that healthcare marketing can be culturally resonant, commercially powerful and deeply human. As director and head of U.S. consumer marketing at Insulet, he has redefined how the Omnipod tubeless insulin pump shows up in culture, transforming a medical device into a symbol of identity, inclusion and empowerment.   Under Escobar's leadership, Insulet launched three breakthrough initiatives: Dyasonic: Sound of Strength, a Marvel comic collaboration introducing a superhero who uses Omnipod; The Pod Drop, which turned the sound of a pod change into a celebratory music track; and Omnipod Mango x Pantone, medtech's first color partnership, honoring the vibrancy of the diabetes community. Each blended creativity with purpose while driving results, helping fuel Omnipod's consistent double-digit growth and its position as the most prescribed insulin pump in the U.S.   Living with type 1 diabetes himself, Escobar brings lived experience to his work, using storytelling not just to sell, but to make people feel seen.   Click here to return to the 2026 MM+M 40 Under 40 homepage.   From the January 01, 2026 Issue of MM+M - Medical Marketing and Media https://www.mmm-online.com/40-under-40/40-under-40-lucas-escobar-insulet/ -- FDA approves an update to the prescribing info for Afrezza inhaled insulin. This is a revision to the recommendations for the starting mealtime dosage when patients switch from shots or insulin pumps. This is aimed at healthcare providers - the updated labeling was supported by results from the INHALE-3 trial. The FDA is still considering approval of Afrezza for kids – a decision there expect by summer. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2026/01/26/3225442/29517/en/MannKind-Announces-FDA-Approval-of-Updated-Afrezza-Label-Providing-Starting-Dose-Guidance-when-Switching-from-Multiple-Daily-Injections-MDI-or-Insulin-Pump-Mealtime-Therapy.html   -- UK researchers have developed a calculator to predict whether someone is at risk for type 1 diabetes. They're hoping this helps in screening and in preventing DKA at diagnosis. They used the TEDDY study to create this calculator, which right now is in beta form and only for kids and teens ages 8-18. The current beta form of the calculator asks users to answer questions about four factors necessary to estimate a child's risk of developing type 1 diabetes: age, family history, number of confirmed autoantibodies, and genetic risk score. The calculator has been given regulatory approval as a diagnostic in the U.K., and he's working with a company that's hoping to bring it to the U.S. in the next few months in the form of a home genetic test kit. https://www.healthcentral.com/news/type-1-diabetes/new-calculator-might-help-predict-type-1-diabetes-before-symptoms-appear

Why dysregulated kids can't learnJoin me in part 2 of the Little Linguists Series where I discuss that meaningful learning begins with connection, not curriculum. I explain why children are not born with the ability to regulate their emotions and why dysregulated children are simply not available to learn. The episode explores how children learn regulation through modeled behavior, responsive caregiving, and being accepted for who they are—not who adults expect them to be.

In this week's episode I sat down with Daniel Durant and Britt Stewart. Daniel is a Deaf actor on stage and screen. He is best known for his starring role as Leo Rossi in CODA, a film that garnered three Oscar Awards, including the top prize of Best Picture. He also starred in Deaf West's productions of Spring Awakening and Green Day's American Idiot and made it to the semifinals of Dancing With The Stars alongside his then dance partner, now wife, Britt Stewart. His ongoing work also includes co-leading acting workshops for Deaf students and interpreting in schools, serving as an acting teacher and coach for Deaf film camps as well as national speaking engagements for colleges and universities. Britt is a professional dancer, choreographer, and creative leader whose career blends artistry, impact and authenticity in the entertainment industry. Best known as a Pro dancer on Dancing With The Stars, she made history as the first Black female professional dancer on the show and has since made an impact with her presence.  She uses her platform to inspire balance, self growth and connection. As president of non-profit organization, Share The Movement, she champions access, education and representation in dance.We discuss what Deaf representation looked like for Daniel growing up and why he decided to become an actor, Britt's dance journey that led her to the Dancing With The Star's ballroom, how they are both working to make their respective spaces in the entertainment industry more inclusive, their relationship and how they have made their world and their home  more accessible and much, much more.For this conversation we were joined by ASL interpreter Justin Maurer.This episode was edited and produced by Ben Curwin.
