What happens when life throws you its hardest challenges — and you decide to face them on a bicycle? In this episode of the 10Adventures Podcast, Richard talks with Risa August, author of The Road Unpaved: Border to Border with a Brain Tumor and a Bike. Her memoir chronicles her ride from Canada to Mexico while navigating a rare pituitary disease and the collapse of her marriage. Risa shares how cycling became a vehicle for resilience, healing, and rediscovery. From the fatigue of post-surgery recovery to relentless rainstorms, from group dynamics on the road to finding unexpected strength in vulnerability, her story is a powerful reminder that adventure is not just about distance — it's about courage.
In this episode, we explore Carthera, a French biotech company developing novel ultrasound-based technologies to improve drug delivery to the brain. Based in Paris and spun out from academic research, Carthera is best known for its implantable device, SonoCloud, which uses low-intensity pulsed ultrasound to temporarily open the blood-brain barrier. This allows for increased drug penetration into brain tumors, addressing one of the major challenges in treating diseases like glioblastoma. This episode features leadership and key collaborators from Carthera, including CEO Frédéric Sottilini, who shares how his background in therapeutic ultrasound and medical device development helped guide the company's path from concept to clinical trials. We are also joined by Professor Alexandre Carpentier, MD, PhD, the neurosurgeon who founded Carthera, and Michael Vogelbaum, MD, PhD, Chief of Neurosurgery at Moffitt Cancer Center, who offers his perspective as a clinical investigator working with the company's technology. This episode offers insight into the intersection of engineering, neurosurgery, and translational research, and the collaborative effort required to develop new treatment tools for brain tumor patients.

Send us a textThe Accelerators co-host Dr. Matt Spraker is joined by two experts in brachytherapy for brain tumors, Radiation Onocologist and CMO of GT Medical Technologies Dr. Michael Garcia, MD, MS and Neurosurgeon Dr. Simon Hanft, MD, FAANS.We first review the origin story of GammaTile, an evolution of the practice of brachytherapy for brain tumors. Simon then shares how he has deployed GammaTile in his practice. We dive in to patient selection, how the design facilitates a shallow technical learning curve, and the process of prescribing and placing the implant.Discussion then shifts to research. We review some of the published studies (see links below) that support use of GammaTile for both brain metastases and recurrent primary brain tumors, such as GBM and meningioma. We also discuss some recently completed and soon-to-open trials, including Mike's creative idea - time intensification! - to move the needle on outcomes for glioblastoma.

Neurologist Michelle Monje studies the close relationship between cancer and the nervous system, particularly in an aggressive brain cancer that often strikes in childhood. Her research shows that the cancer cells are electrically integrated into the brain itself and these connections actually help the cancer to grow. Monje and collaborators have now developed an immunotherapy that has shown great promise in mice and early human trials. One patient had a “complete response” and is cancer-free four years after treatment, Monje tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

8 Brain Tumors. Stage 4 Cancer. No Chemo. 13 Years Cancer-Free.What happens when the doctors say, “There's nothing more we can do”?For Georges Cordoba, it was the beginning—not the end.In this astonishing episode, Georges shares his raw, miraculous journey through 10 years of cancer treatment, including 4 brain surgeries, 2 inoperable tumors, and the moment he walked away from conventional medicine—and into divine surrender.He chose holistic healing.He chose emotional release.He chose faith.And now, he coaches others through the very fire he walked through.
On this week's Inside Startup Investing, Dr. Nicole Paulk—founder & CEO of Siren Biotechnology—details her AAV gene-therapy “FedEx truck” that can deliver anti-tumor cytokines directly to brain cancers. Early animal data show 86 % complete responses; the FDA has signaled a fast-track path for Siren's first-in-human trial set for 2026. With analog comps like Keytruda earning $30 B a year, Siren's upside—and impact—could be enormous.Highlights include...Why viruses? AAV viruses don't cause disease in humans yet efficiently deliver genetic payloads; Siren re-engineers them to express anti-tumor cytokines.Twin “firsts.” Siren pursues the first AAV-based cancer therapy and the first single virus platform scalable to hundreds of indications.Animal data. >500 mouse models show 86 % complete responses; large-animal pig study indicates strong safety with real-world neurosurgical delivery.Clinical plan. Combined Phase 1/2 trial in adults with recurrent high-grade gliomas targeted for 2026 with potential for rare-disease (orphan) fast-track.Market context. Current SOC for brain tumors is largely ineffective; analogous immunotherapies like Keytruda generate ~$30 B annually.

Chris Mirabile's journey into health and longevity began with a preteen's desire to impress girls during school fitness tests—but quickly evolved into something deeper. By age 12, Chris was reading Men's Health, refining his diet, and obsessing over performance, though he later realized much of his early approach to health was misguided. At 16, his life took a dramatic turn when he suffered a seizure during a school field trip and was diagnosed with a large brain tumor. Emergency brain surgery saved his life, but the experience left a lasting impression, igniting a relentless drive to understand human biology and wellness. Though he studied finance and entrepreneurship at NYU, Chris immersed himself in scientific research, especially in bio-gerontology—the biology of aging. Long before it was a buzzword, he was poring over PubMed studies, using genetic testing tools, and analyzing his own DNA to uncover predispositions that might have contributed to his tumor. After early success and eventual failure with a social media startup, Chris doubled down on his passion for health optimization. He founded Novos, a company dedicated to slowing the aging process through science-backed supplements and nutrition, collaborating with researchers from institutions like Harvard, MIT, and the Salk Institute. Today, Chris combines rigorous science with real-world application. He launched NovoScore, a daily supplement targeting all 12 known mechanisms of aging, and developed a science-forward meal replacement bar that emphasizes longevity-promoting ingredients over trendy marketing. Through Novos and his personal platform SlowMyAge, Chris educates others on optimizing biological age, drawing from cutting-edge research in omics sciences and data-driven health tracking. With over 10 million supplement doses taken and partnerships expanding, Chris's mission is clear: to empower people to live longer, healthier, and more vibrant lives through informed, evidence-based choices.

Story at-a-glance Research has identified a unique genetic mutation in brain tumors of firefighters directly linked to flame retardant chemicals, with more mutations appearing after longer exposure periods Chemicals found in flame retardants damage genes regulating cell growth, causing aggressive brain tumors like glioma that lead to severe disability if untreated Everyday household items including furniture, electronics and children's products contain these same toxic chemicals, putting families at risk from low-level but persistent exposure Flame retardants break down into particles that contaminate household dust, which people inhale and absorb through skin during normal daily activities Reduce exposure by choosing flame-retardant free furniture and household items, using a vacuum with a HEPA filter, avoiding stain-resistant fabrics and selecting certified organic products, especially for children
