So, let's talk about the marriage between nanotechnology and medicine, and how this can help revolutionize cancer treatment… Have you ever wondered what the field of bioengineering entails? At its core, bioengineering is a discipline that harnesses the principles of biology and engineering to develop innovative solutions for a variety of problems. It is a world filled with extraordinary, cutting-edge, and most importantly, profoundly impactful innovations. And with its revolutionary advancements in medicine, agriculture, and more, it is truly shaping our world in ways we could never have imagined before. Unfortunately, this is a science that I know little to nothing about. But worry no more, for in this week's episode, I'll be joined by a trailblazer in this field – Dr. Craig Richard, a Black doctor who not only pushes the limits of what nanotechnology and medicine can do but is also a staunch proponent for representation and mentorship of Black students in STEM fields. If you feel like me, whose knowledge about this field is so limited but has been pondering upon the incredible possibilities that lie within this field, then get yourselves ready. Here, we'll discover how the tiniest particles invisible to the naked eye might hold the key to medical advances for better health and life. Why you need to check this episode: Find out how nanotechnology and medicine go together; Understand the importance of representation and mentorship in STEM fields; and Learn about the advances of nanotechnology especially in the fight against cancer “That's the goal; it's to develop treatments for these diseases that otherwise would have very few treatment options or would result in such drastic symptoms from the treatment that people don't want to do them. We can make this process a lot easier or more targeted so there's less off-target effects. It's the best of both worlds.” – Dr. Craig Richard Notable Quotes: “Fundamental properties start to change when you start to nanostructure things.” – Dr. Craig Richard “It's really exciting because now, you could have systemic delivery. It doesn't matter how you deliver it, but if you only deliver the on signal – the kill switch – to the site with the tumor, then you're getting all the buildup that's happening in that tumor and you're only having the effect in that tumor; you can minimize the off-target effects of some of those really toxic chemotherapy drugs because they're only being released inside the tumor or around the tumor.” – Dr. Craig Richard “Obviously, there's going to be pros and cons; there's going to have to be some sacrifices, especially if you're treating cancer. Like, the chemotherapy drugs you are using – they're poison. There are no uncertain terms; it's poison. But it's a poison that affects the cancer cells more than it does the normal cells and you're just taking advantage of cancer's biology. So, if you can take it and put it in some type of delivery vehicle and have it specifically target that, the benefits kind of outweigh some of the risks.” – Dr. Craig Richard “I don't want people to have the same experiences that I've had, like going through college and high school where I'm the only person that looks like me in the room. I can count on one hand the number of people in my field, in my department, that looks like me, and that's a problem. I don't want that to be everyone's experience, so I'm trying to do what I can to help with that and remedy that problem.” – Dr. Craig Richard Sign up at www.listentodrberry.com  to join the mailing list.

Chasing Consciousness
Mike Gazzaniga PHD - THE LEFT BRAIN INTERPRETER

Chasing Consciousness

Do we realise we invent explanations? In this episode we look at the extraordinary phenomena of the Left Brain Interpreter, in which a part of the left hemisphere tends to literally invent an explanation for something we've perceived or done based on past experience, sometimes in a completely mistaken way. This is a very important phenomena to our first series as we introduce the cognitive limits of our brains, as it shows just how tricky our so called rational mind can be, and begs questions about the authority and validity of our conscious faculties and how much is the result of previous bias. The most interesting part about this is that the subject has no idea cognitively that this is an invention and thinks that this is true information and not a deduction. But before we jump to any conclusions, in order to understand this properly we need to speak to a legend in the relatively young field of neuroscience, the person who actually discovered this phenomena in the first place, Dr Mike Gazzaniga. He is the founder of the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience at both the University of California and Dartmouth College. He is also a proficient author of books for both the general public and the more specialised field. Some of his titles include: ‘The Ethical Brain', ‘Who's in Charge? Free will and the science of the brain', and most recently, which we'll be discussing today, ‘The Consciousness instinct: unravelling the the mystery of how the brain makes mind'. He made is name in the field as one of the pioneers in split-brain research, which led to the bulk of his early work on what the functions of each hemisphere of the brain are, and and how the left and right hemispheres communicate with each other.

Why do a job when you can just pay room and board for someone else to do it? Over hundreds and hundreds of years we have recognized the innate skills of our planetary cohabitants, and then made them offers they couldn’t refuse. The people who gave us cattle, corn, and cats worked for centuries without the title they deserve: Bioengineer. Their tool was domestication, and it was the most ambitious and successful genetic modification program in human history. Why have we stopped this success parade at microbes? There is one bacteria safe enough for American high-schoolers to “train,” and a handful more an expert could work with, and then THOUSANDS more that we depend on for our very existence but do not grow in the laboratory - and thus cannot communicate with at all. We have an empty barn, a handful of tame to feral bacteria to press into every biomanufacturing job we dream up. We would never ask a goat to catch and eat barn mice, but we frequently ask E. coli to do all sorts of outlandish things. It is a big lift for a gut microbe with a sweet tooth. It is all too frequently an impossible lift. A re-examination of the analogies of “synthetic biology” is in order. Question every assumption. Guest Speaker Dr. Sarah Richardson (@TheGermWrangler, @microbyre) - Sarah is a computationally inclined microbiologist and science communicator: she speaks charmingly to computers, bacteria, and people. She grew up in West Baltimore, and after training at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory she founded the biotech startup MicroByre. She leads a skilled and diverse team in the construction of genomic toolkits for non‐model prokaryotes --- MicroByre coaxes wild bacteria into becoming domesticated bacteria. Trained to straddle disciplines, she has a very unique perspective on the emerging technologies made possible by synthetic biology.

This episode featured the panel discussion from our Toronto Green Beauty Night that happened just over a week ago. What is ‘green beauty’? Most commonly, when we talk about sustainability in cosmetics, it’s often coming from a place of misinformation - from chemophobia and fear-mongering to fallacies of thinking natural will always be better, which is just not true. I think a big challenge is that scientists often stay behind closed doors - I actually don’t know of another consumer-facing panel on this topic, and there are a lot of panels out there, that features real scientists. Sustainability in our industry is more important than ever, and so it’s really important that we used science-based metrics to move forward instead of the quick switches that really just appease consumer trends. Featured in our Green Beauty Panel was Beta Montemayor, toxicologist at Cosmetics Alliance Canada, Kenna Whitnell, biochemist at Altilis Beauty, Dr. Vik Pandit, Bioengineer at Phycus Biotech, Jenn Harper, founder at Cheekbone Beauty, and Dayna Stein, sustainability advisor and founder at bare market. A really great discussion filled with very important information to our industry, from brand owners, fellow formulators to consumers. My goal with Green Beauty Night is to help re-direct the discussion on an international stage.

In 2017, Dr. Anand Gramopadhye, Dean of the College of Engineering, Computing and Applied Sciences, asked Rettew Creative's ’s storytelling team to craft a series of stories inspiring the next generation of engineers to attend Clemson University. We identified numerous narratives showcasing visual stories that would inspire individuals to take the next steps to change the world. During the creative process, we knew telling a story of a bioengineering researcher helping a young boy with a lower limb prosthetic find comfort while walking and running would be a compelling story. What we found was something far more interesting and compelling. I met researcher and PhD candidate Meredith Owen, who we cast for this story. Her work is amazing, but what was more amazing is her passion to help people, lower limb amputees, real people in dire need of comfort. In a 2016 study by a MIT sociologist, 20 percent of undergraduate engineering degrees are awarded to women, but only 13 percent of the engineering workforce is female. Meredith Owen is changing the face of the profession providing a rich intersection inside the story we crafted for Clemson. We purposefully chose a smart female bioengineering researcher so other high school teenage girls could see themselves as future engineers.

Ian sits down to interview Molly Sheehan, postdoctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania's department of bioengineering, and candidate for Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District. I chat with Molly about what it's like to run for office while still working in the lab and being a mother, her experiences so far on the campaign, what got her into politics, and her suggestions for college, graduate or medical students - or other postdocs - who are interested in getting politically engaged, but don't know where to start.

Desai is a bioengineering professor at UC San Francisco who is investigating new treatments for diabetes. Using nanotechnology, she is developing a tiny capsule that contains pancreatic cells that produce insulin. This capsule would be implanted in a patient's body and act as an artificial pancreas. In high school, Desai wasn't sure what career path to pursue. As a freshman, she participated in a National Science Foundation program focused on engaging girls in science where she met a lot of inspirational women, including a biotech engineer. She says the topic appealed to her because "engineering could have direct health applications and help people." This video is one of three in the Career Spotlight: Biotechnology series.
