Omega-3 fatty acids have long been lauded for heart health benefits. Yet, emerging research now points to an even more profound impact, directly on our most complex organ: the brain. Today, we delve into the critical, often misunderstood, role of omega-3s in cognitive function, mental well-being, and even the prevention of neurodegenerative conditions like dementia. We are joined by Dr. Bill Harris, a globally recognised authority in omega-3 fatty acid research. Bill is a Professor at the University of South Dakota and has over 300 peer-reviewed publications. His foundational work includes pioneering studies on fish oil in the 1980s and shaping American Heart Association scientific statements. In this episode, Dr. Harris - along with ZOE's Chief Scientist Professor Sarah Berry - illuminate why most individuals may be operating with suboptimal omega-3 levels, and the tangible implications this has for mood regulation, anxiety, and long-term brain resilience. We navigate nuances between omega-3 types like EPA and DHA, debunk common misconceptions surrounding plant-based sources and mercury content in fish, and explore the precise methods for assessing and improving your own "Omega-3 Index."

Episode Summary:Dave Coriale sits down with Gretchen Steenstra, Director of Project Strategy and Leadership at DelCor, and Niko Cribb, Technology Consultant at DelCor, to unpack what happened at the DelCor Bootcamp during AMS Fest. They explore the evolving challenges of AMS selection, the importance of ecosystem and context diagrams, and how associations can better prepare for system adoption. From peer-to-peer learning to the impact of private equity on vendor trust, this episode is packed with practical takeaways for association professionals navigating the complex world of association management systems. Topics & Themes:Inside the DelCor Bootcamp at AMS FestA vendor-free, candid environment where association professionals can ask real questions and get honest feedback.Bootcamp helps attendees feel more confident and prepared before engaging with vendors.Ecosystem and Context DiagramsAttendees were asked to draw their current tech ecosystem to visualize integrations and ownership.The process of creating the diagram was more valuable than the final product.Writing Better RequirementsParticipants practiced writing user story-based requirements, often for the first time.Emphasis on considering multiple perspectives: membership, finance, and member services.Understanding the Role of the Business AnalystAssociations don't need to turn staff into BAs, but must understand the BA role.Clear requirements are essential for selection, configuration, and adoption.Most AMS issues stem from poor adoption, not poor functionality.Balancing Ecosystems vs. All-in-One PlatformsDiscussion around whether to consolidate or diversify systems.Risks of over-reliance on a single platform vs. complexity of multiple systems.Private Equity and Vendor TrustMergers and acquisitions are eroding trust in vendors and direct access to decision-makers is more difficult.Associations must take ownership of training, documentation, and vendor relationships.Change Management and Adoption FearsSome staff fear change and struggle with system transitions.Bootcamp helps surface these concerns early in the process.Peer Learning and Community SupportAMS Fest's value lies in shared experiences and peer advice.One piece of advice from a peer can shift an entire selection strategy.Final Question: What's Got You Worked Up?Gretchen: Frustrated by the lack of payoff from private equity investment in platforms.Niko: Wants more associations to engage in the conversation and learn from peers.

Summary In this episode, Andy welcomes Jon Harper, author of Rebuild! Don't Repair: Why Fixing Things Doesn't Fix Things in Life. Jon shares from his personal and professional journey about the courage it takes to stop settling for temporary fixes and instead do the deeper, more intentional work of rebuilding.

How can associations remain relevant and valuable in an AI-driven world? How do associations create new knowledge while serving as the second source of truth in a world when search is dominated by AI engines?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Rob Wenger, CEO of Higher Logic. Rob discusses:Why people are prioritizing human connections over content at conferences, and how associations can support meaningful, year-round engagement.How Higher Logic's Thrive platform integrates community, mentoring, volunteering, and marketing in a single ecosystem.Why virtual connections can be just as valuable as in-person ones, and how community platforms can reach younger and mid-career members who often don't attend in person events.Why it's a myth that trade associations can't do online community due to competition, and what the data really shows.The existential threat to associations that delayed AI adoption creates, and why the window to act is closing fast.How Higher Logic is using AI and big data to automate over 200 types of marketing campaigns that associations often don't have the resources to do.Why associations must become "the second answer engine" for their members when AI tools fall short.The role of associations in generating expert, original content that will feed and sustain AI innovation in the future.Rob's journey from CTO to CEO, how he intentionally developed leadership traits over 20 years, and why he came out of retirement to lead Higher Logic again.References:Higher Logic WebsiteHigher Logic's Thrive productHigher Logic's 2024 Association Member Experience ReportHigher Logic's 2024 Association Email Benchmark Report

Dr. Shinyong Kwon joins this week's episode to discuss how neighborhood associations — known today as inminban in the DPRK — have been used as tools of governance, social indoctrination and moral authority. She explains how these associations originated from East Asian communal traditions but were reshaped under Japanese colonial rule to serve wartime mobilization and state control and traces how both Koreas retained and adapted the system post-liberation. Dr. Shinyoung Kwon holds a PhD in history from the University of Chicago and did postdoctoral research at the University of Cambridge. She now lives in the United States. Her book Moral Authoritarianism: Neighborhood Associations in the Three Koreas, 1931–1972 was published in November 2023.  About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.

First, they dig into Cloudflare's bold new default to block AI content scrapers—what it means for associations, the rise of pay-per-crawl, and whether blocking AI is smart strategy or short-sighted fear. Then, they shift gears to dissect a revealing Chronicle of Philanthropy survey on nonprofit tech adoption, where some orgs are experimenting with AI while others still won't accept credit cards. The result? A growing digital divide—and plenty of lessons for association leaders looking to future-proof.

Dr. Andres Cardenas, from the Department of Epidemiology and Population Health at Stanford University, joins host Dr. Evgeniy Galimov to discuss a research paper he co-authored in Volume 17, Issue 2 of Aging (Aging-US), titled “Exposome-wide association study of environmental chemical exposures and epigenetic aging in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.206201 Corresponding author - Andres Cardenas - andresca@stanford.edu Video interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1I6qoVwkfM Longevity & Aging Series - https://www.aging-us.com/longevity Abstract Epigenetic clocks can serve as pivotal biomarkers linking environmental exposures with biological aging. However, research on the influence of environmental exposures on epigenetic aging has largely been limited to a small number of chemicals and specific populations. We harnessed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2000 and 2001-2002 cycles to examine exposome-wide associations between environmental exposures and epigenetic aging. A total of 8 epigenetic aging biomarkers were obtained from whole blood in 2,346 participants ranging from 50-84 years of age. A total of 64 environmental exposures including phthalates, metals, pesticides, dioxins, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were measured in blood and urine. Associations between log2-transformed/standardized exposure measures and epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) were assessed using survey-weighted generalized linear regression. A 1 standard deviation (SD) increase in log2 serum cadmium levels was associated with higher GrimAge acceleration (beta = 1.23 years, p = 3.63e-06), higher GrimAge2 acceleration (beta = 1.27 years, p = 1.62e-05), and higher DunedinPoAm (beta = 0.02, p = 2.34e-05). A 1 SD increase in log2 serum cotinine levels was associated with higher GrimAge2 acceleration (beta = 1.40 years, p = 6.53e-04) and higher DunedinPoAm (beta = 0.03, p = 6.31e-04). Associations between cadmium and EAA across several clocks persisted in sensitivity models adjusted for serum cotinine levels, and other associations involving lead, dioxins, and PCBs were identified. Several environmental exposures are associated with epigenetic aging in a nationally representative US adult population, with particularly strong associations related to cadmium and cotinine across several epigenetic clocks.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: The KLM Flight Disaster, also known as the Tenerife Airport Disaster, occurred on 27 March 1977. It involved the collision of two Boeing 747 passenger jets from KLM and Pan Am Airlines, resulting in 583 fatalities.  What fell through the cracks to cause this incident? The captain of the KLM flight believed he had received clearance from air traffic control to take off, when in fact he had not. This captain was one of the most senior pilots in the organization, and the culture often saw senior pilots as infallible and not to be questioned. The co-pilot, who noticed improper communication resulting from power dynamics, did not assertively speak up.  What lessons can be taken from the tragedy and applied to healthcare?  Aviation and healthcare are both high-stakes industries that require extensive communication for the safety of passengers and patients. Within medicine, an inherent hierarchy exists, and it is crucial not to let this hierarchy and perceived power imbalance prevent people from speaking up. In healthcare, providers such as nurses, paramedics, and technicians may spend more time with patients and thus may notice warning signs earlier. It is imperative to foster a culture where they can speak up freely and without hesitation if something concerning is caught in a patient.  When might mistakes happen most often? Hanna et al. found that radiological interpretation errors were more likely to occur later in shifts, peaking around the 10-to-12-hour mark. Leviatan et al. found that medication prescription errors were more likely to occur by physicians working on 2nd and 3rd consecutive shifts. Hendey et al. found medication ordering errors were higher on overnight and post-call shifts. Gatz et al. found that surgical procedural complication rates are higher during the last 4 hours of a 12-hour shift. In Short, Ends of shifts are when mistakes are most likely to occur.  Overall takeaway? In a healthcare team, it is critical to look after each other regardless of years of experience or post-nominal letters, and speak up for patient safety. Making a special note that we may need to do so more towards the end of shifts, where we might not be at our sharpest.    References Gatz JD, Gingold DB, Lemkin DL, Wilkerson RG.
