A recent study in the journal Nature unveiled new proteins that can neutralize the deadliest of snake venoms. They're “new” in that they aren't found in nature—they were created in a lab, dreamed up by AI.Using AI to discover, or design, the building blocks of drugs is a fast-growing area of research. Another team of scientists out of Philadelphia is using AI to discover new antibiotics by resurrecting long-lost molecules from extinct species like neanderthals and woolly mammoths.We know what you're thinking: It sounds too sci-fi to be true.Flora Lichtman talks with two pioneers in the field about how AI is supercharging drug discovery: Dr. César de la Fuente, bioengineer and presidential associate professor at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, and Nobel laureate Dr. David Baker, director of the Institute for Protein Design and professor at the University of Washington in Seattle.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.For our Los Angeles listeners: We're working on a story about the toxins left behind by the fires and we want to hear from you.

Welcome back to another episode of Science of Slink! Today we are talking about how to stay motivated as a home poler. In this episode I talk about the most common motivation that men and women have for exercising, how home based exercise programs compare to center based programs, and how motivation can change depending on your age. I also talk through how to build self-efficacy as you are learning new skills on and off the pole. Whether you are new to pole or not, sometimes our motivation can change.

Mainz BioMed CEO Guido Baechler joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has submitted an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requesting Breakthrough Device Designation for its innovative non-invasive Next Generation colorectal cancer screening product. This product incorporates a novel portfolio of mRNA biomarkers. Achieving this designation could potentially expedite the approval process, significantly benefiting early cancer detection efforts. Baechler emphasized that the regulatory submission is backed by consistently strong results from the company's clinical studies, ColoFuture and eAArly Detect, as well as data from a comprehensive pooled study encompassing both the European and U.S. cohorts, which were presented at ASCO 2024. These studies have culminated in the final configuration of the Next Generation Test. This test integrates the Fecal Immunochemical Test with proprietary mRNA biomarkers and is enhanced by an advanced AI and machine learning algorithm. This integrated approach is set to be employed in the FDA premarket approval study. The Next Generation Test configuration was rigorously evaluated in a clinical setting involving 295 subjects from 21 specialized gastroenterology centers across the United States. The results underscored the exceptional efficacy of Mainz Biomed's multimodal screening test, which allows for precise differentiation among colorectal cancer, advanced adenomas, non-advanced adenomas, and samples with no pathological findings. The FDA's Breakthrough Devices Designation program is designed to accelerate the development, assessment, and review of medical devices and combination products that provide more effective treatment or diagnosis for life-threatening or irreversibly debilitating conditions. This designation for Mainz BioMed's colorectal cancer test could pave the way for quicker market access and wider availability of this critical diagnostic tool. #proactiveinvestors #mainzbiomednv #nasdaq #mynv #GuidoBaechler, #CancerScreening, #MolecularDiagnostics, #ColorectalCancer, #RNA, #Biomarkers, #PCRTechnology, #EarlyDetection, #CancerPrevention, #FecalBloodTest, #FDA, #BreakthroughDevice, #InnovativeHealth, #MedicalResearch, #DigestiveDiseaseWeek, #ASCO, #CancerResearch, #HealthTechnology, #PreventiveHealthcare #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Overview Today is a different episode. I'm not talking to an author, this has to do with video games. Though it's not focused on video game storytelling as I've had in the past. It is related. I am talking with the coaches for the BioMed Science Academy eSports team. BioMed is a local alternative STEM school and they are one of over 200 schools in Ohio with eSports teams. This is important, because it shows the rise of videogames and how our culture is changing with that. Video games are still growing and there will be more future for today's kids to be in the video game industry - as storytellers or other. If you are a teacher or school administrator - this is a good episode to help introduce you to eSports. If you are a parent, there's a lot in here that you may not realize. I hope to do more episodes that deal with video games and video game storytelling. Website https://www.biomedscienceacademy.org/ YouTube https://youtu.be/_LRowafEIpU Transcription Stephen: Great. Okay. So today on Discover Wordsmiths, a very exciting conversation for me. If anyone's been following along on this podcast, I've had several interviews with some people in the video game industry where we talked about storytelling in video games. And today I'm continuing that with a couple of teachers at a local school, Biomed STEM Academy, which I'm very excited to talk to because they have an e sports team, one of the few in the area. So welcome Eric and Alexis. How are you guys doing? Eric: I'm doing wonderful. How Stephen: are you doing today? I'm I'm really doing great. I've been excited. I went to Blossom last night. So I went to bed late, but then all I could think about was talking to you guys. So if I yawn, I apologize. You're not boring. It's you know, body picking up. Before we start delving into this to inform parents and students or whatever tell us a little bit about biomed and what biomed is. Eric: So we're at biomed science Academy and biomed is a STEM plus M school. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. But we also have a medical pathway as well at our school. And what we do is instead of just teaching math, I will teach math in terms of different science and technology and engineering and even some of the health pathway. So the math that you see not only goes with the state's standards, but I'll also give those applications in the STEM field. And that's not just me, but the entire school that that's part of our mission and vision. Stephen: And my kids, after they went there, what I described that people is instead of just sitting down for a history class, where they tell you the Panama Canal was built at this time, they say, Go do a research on it and build us a working canal that you can move levers and adjust it and then tell us how it affected the economy in the area. And I'm like, Oh, my God, that tells you so much more than just it was built in this time. You know, about biomed. I remember the table of elements. You know, when I was in school, it's like, okay, memorize the table of elements. As much as you could. Who cares? Nobody, you can look it up. So who cares if you memorized it? But you guys put them in groups. Because that's important working in groups in the world and companies. And you said, okay, this is your one or two research. These tell us everything you, you can find out about it and give a report. And I guarantee those kids remembered those two better than everything else. And I always thought that was such a great approach to learning and more, much more exciting. I don't know if the students get it so much, but I would. So, all right. So what we're going to talk about a little bit more in depth today is your e sports team. And I was really excited about this because I've been trying to find out more about video game storytelling and it connected to e sports because Ohio just approved e sports teams in high scho...

Tuvik Beker, CEO, and Ranit Aharonov, CTO of Pangea Biomed, have designed ENLIGHT, a computational platform driving precision oncology that matches cancer tumors with available therapies. Drawing on an understanding of synthetic mortality and synthetic rescue, this approach focuses on how the interaction between genes increases or decreases the tumor cell's fitness and the likely response to a drug. Determining which populations might benefit most from a drug opens the door to new treatments for common and rare diseases. Tuvik explains, "When we match therapies to patients, just according to the pure genetic characteristics of the tumor, sometimes we miss potential therapies, and sometimes we give patients therapies that do not work very effectively. To solve that, we developed ENLIGHT, which looks at the broader characteristics of the tumor, not just at the target gene, but multiple interactions, and that way, we can find potential therapies that are missed by the current guidelines and common biomarkers." Ranit elaborates, "So when we search for these interactions between genes, we look at a lot of available cancer data. We have a large database of a lot of cell lines that were treated and human tumors, and we know the survival of the patients and so on, but we don't need to know anything about what drugs they got. Our algorithms allow us, by looking at a lot of correlations between different activations of genes and survival and what happens to cells, we are able to find what are the pairs in the entire genome of genes that their co-activation affects the fitness or the tumor survival. And by knowing this, you can think of it as a sort of vulnerability map of tumors." "One of the things I haven't yet described and I think wouldn't have happened without this revolution is that we can now move a step further. When we look at a patient's tumor, we don't necessarily need to measure the RNA expression or the activation of genes directly. We can look at the tumor through a microscope using standard histopathology slides, the ones with the bluish and pinkish coloring that have been used for decades and are really available everywhere." #PrecisionsMedicine #Oncology #PrecisionOncology #RareDisease #Biotech #Startup #AI #MachineLearning pangeabiomed.com Listen to the podcast here
Tuvik Beker, CEO, and Ranit Aharonov, CTO of Pangea Biomed, have designed ENLIGHT, a computational platform driving precision oncology that matches cancer tumors with available therapies. Drawing on an understanding of synthetic mortality and synthetic rescue, this approach focuses on how the interaction between genes increases or decreases the tumor cell's fitness and the likely response to a drug. Determining which populations might benefit most from a drug opens the door to new treatments for common and rare diseases. Tuvik explains, "When we match therapies to patients, just according to the pure genetic characteristics of the tumor, sometimes we miss potential therapies, and sometimes we give patients therapies that do not work very effectively. To solve that, we developed ENLIGHT, which looks at the broader characteristics of the tumor, not just at the target gene, but multiple interactions, and that way, we can find potential therapies that are missed by the current guidelines and common biomarkers." Ranit elaborates, "So when we search for these interactions between genes, we look at a lot of available cancer data. We have a large database of a lot of cell lines that were treated and human tumors, and we know the survival of the patients and so on, but we don't need to know anything about what drugs they got. Our algorithms allow us, by looking at a lot of correlations between different activations of genes and survival and what happens to cells, we are able to find what are the pairs in the entire genome of genes that their co-activation affects the fitness or the tumor survival. And by knowing this, you can think of it as a sort of vulnerability map of tumors." "One of the things I haven't yet described and I think wouldn't have happened without this revolution is that we can now move a step further. When we look at a patient's tumor, we don't necessarily need to measure the RNA expression or the activation of genes directly. We can look at the tumor through a microscope using standard histopathology slides, the ones with the bluish and pinkish coloring that have been used for decades and are really available everywhere." #PrecisionsMedicine #Oncology #PrecisionOncology #RareDisease #Biotech #Startup #AI #MachineLearning pangeabiomed.com Download the transcript here

This is the 3rd episode in the Cancer Series. In this episode, you'll hear a bit about precision medicine in oncology, drug repurposing and the increasing challenges precision medicine poses for clinical trials. I spoke with Tuvik Beker, CEO of Pangea Biomed, an Israeli-based company tackling oncology drug development and treatment recommendation by not only looking at the single mutations in tumor cells, which the Pharmaceutical industry has already found targeted therapies for. Cancer treatments are evolving very rapidly, but precision and targeted therapies are still only effective in roughly 10% of cancer patients. Pangea Biomed tries to understand broader gene activation patterns inside tumor cells and recommends a therapy that would help exploit cancer cells' defense mechanisms. As explained in simplified terms by Tuvik Beker. Cancer Series Ep. 1: Access to Care, Financial Toxicity and Healthcare IT in Oncology Speaker: David J. Stewart, MD, FRCPC, Professor of Medicine in the Division of Medical Oncology at the University of Ottawa and The Ottawa Hospital. Cancer Series Ep.2: Cancer, Genomics and Data Science Speaker: Xose M. Fernandez, genomicist and up until recently the Chief Data Officer at Institut Curie in France, one of the leading medical, biological, and biophysical research centers in the world.

This podcast episode is relevant to every autism mom out there. It's also a survival story.She shares the nutritional imbalances (now regulated) and biochemical challenges with you and your child. How she dealt with compulsive OCD, self-harm, binge eating and eating disorders, food OCD, anxiety, depression and obsessions is how you need to address these issues. It's a story about overcoming binge eating, diet OCD, anxiety, self-harm & suicidal thoughts. Experienced by someone who shares chemistry and nutritional imbalances with 90 % of autism moms and autistic children who learned how to regulate their biochemistry with food THE HARD WAY. Samatha Gilbert is an incredible woman, colleague and autism nutritionist. Dr Mensah saved her life after she's been considering ending it on Golden Gate Bridge several times after a long life of self-harm, anxiety, restrictive eating, binge eating, veganism (that made her feel worse) and depression. When she learned what undermethylation, pyrrole disorder, copper toxicity and a superfood/vegetable-based GF/DF diet did to her mental health and how she could eat herself well - she dedicated her life to helping families with children/young people with similar problems with her Eat For Life strategy. It wasn't that she wasn't health-focused or knowledgeable. Just like you - she was already an expert in functional medicine and holistic health. She was (like many autism moms who focus on recovery and Biomed) - from an outsider's perspective - extremely healthy. The problem with healthy eating, dieting and holistic health today is that it's making a massive group of people (especially autism families) WORSE. In this podcast, you'll learn: How body dysmorphia and binge eating on cupcakes started at age five for Samantha and why you need to understand the link to undermethylation and copper metabolism early and catch it.How untreated biochemical and nutritional imbalances escalated into starvation & binge eating, OCD, anxiety, extreme veganism and depression/suicidal thoughts and why it is something you MUST prevent for your child. The link between disordered eating (including picky eating), undermethylation, serotonin and dopamine. Non-purging extreme self-punishment (over-exercise and fasting and the consequences of that. Treating mental health issues should have a nutritional approach instead of solely focusing on the brain/behaviour/cognition and emotional therapy. It doesn't work. How Samantha lost her hearing at the well visit after getting the "you know what" at 15 months. Why autism families NEED MEAT in their diet to heal and thrive. Why getting healthy sometimes means gaining weight in the healing process. Especially if you've been dieting for years. The problem with folate/folic acid. How copper can drive someone to the edge and suicidal tendencies.Why "Root cause protocol" is a dangerous and harmful health trend in the autism recovery community. And so much more...

I want you to meet TWO new moms that recently came into my community. I know that they have so much to share that you can learn from to make your autism turnaround journey easier (and maybe even quicker).I've wanted to sit down with two moms who are at the BEGINNING of the autism turnaround journey with their children for the longest time. That dream came true in this episode of the Barefoot autism warriors podcast. -I wanted a roundtable discussion with new autism moms who are new to the recovery/autism turnaround journey in Barefoot Autism Warriors. I normally interview moms at the end of their journey (testimonials). I wanted to bring relatable tips from beginners (new autism moms in my community). I figured that it would be more relatable for younger autism moms who're still struggling with tantrums, regression, nonverbal autism, eloping, sleepless nights and screaming to hear from moms who've just been there and know what you can do to change this (because they literally just did (and still are working on it.) Little did I know that I was about to get the secret from these two mothers about how to speed up the recovery process without focusing on the child, chasing cures, tests, autism diets and Biomed. In this podcast episode with Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson's guests Stacia (USA) and Gro (Scandinavia) you'll get so many insights and tips about autism recovery, leaving expensive biomedical treatments, autism mom stress and what works to overcome autism symptoms. In this episode, we cover: StaciaHow to go from eloping, collapsing on the floor (because of sleep deprivation) and having nonverbal autism to having a helpful child who's calm and able to have great conversations with his family now. What it feels like to be so stressed out and tired that you collapse on the floor and jump if your husband touches your shoulder.She feared that this would be forever and that her child would never become independent. How that's changed and why. The biomedical roller-coaster (ups that always led to disappointing downs and money wasted). God's guidance. The point of no return was when her husband ended the money spent on biomedical treatments 10 - 20.000 $ that didn't work, and what happened next...How she felt when she could not take her children to the shop or go on family trips together because of dangerous autism symptoms? How God led her in a completely different direction and what a certain podcast with Luke Storey had to do with getting closer to real results. Gro: Having child number two right after child number 1 was diagnosed (and how she dealt with both of them being autistic. Being a single autism mom of 2 and surviving the stress of having two children with autism.Self-sabotage and addiction to stress and cortisol. How it felt to be so stressed that you didn't want to be on earth anymore. The autism-mom PTSD that almost destroyed her. Looking for solutions in New Age spirituality before realizing how dark and deceptive that was (and turning to God instead.) Finding peace and getting her children to a better place and the AMAZING changes she's now experiencing (that you can copy). What these mothers shared was much more than I'd hoped for. Even though these two moms are in the thick of it and just recently started working with me - the changes they've seen are INCREDIBLE. Ps: I'm starting a coaching group for new autism moms Sep 1. We're going to focus on turning autism symptoms around. Would you like to join us? Email us here
