Being overweight and being unfit are not the same thing. That's the central finding of a new meta-analysis published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine and it carries significant implications for how fitness operators communicate the value of exercise to members. Hosts Rachel Chonko and Luke Carlson break down the findings of the meta-analysis examining how cardiorespiratory fitness — not body weight — predicts mortality risk. The research synthesized 716 individual studies over 20 meta-analyses, making it one of the most comprehensive looks at this question to date. This Episode Covers: - Why the fitness industry has historically conflated weight loss with fitness, and how that messaging has done members a disservice - The "fit-fat paradigm" explained: why an overweight individual with strong cardiorespiratory fitness can carry the same mortality risk as a normal-weight fit person - Why clubs investing in longevity programming should anchor those offerings in evidence-based aerobic exercise rather than less-studied modalities like cold plunge or infrared therapy - How operators can reframe the member value proposition — shifting the conversation from how exercise changes your body to how it extends your life

An extra half hour of The Panel with Wallace Chapman, where to begin, he's joined by Nights host Susana Lei'ataua. Then: is strength training the new cardio for life-lengthening workouts? New research from the British Journal of Sports Medicine Suggests so. Exercise NZ chief executive Richard Beddie takes a look at the findings.

Could mushrooms hold the secret to better gut health, lower cholesterol, and can they protect your brain? Today, Professor Robin May, a leading microbiologist and the UK Government's Chief Scientific Officer, explores why our interest in mushrooms has exploded. He explains why they are not just another vegetable but could hold the key to better gut health, brain health, immune health, and lower cholesterol. By the end of the episode, you'll know which health claims about mushrooms are real, which are exaggerated and where the science is just too early to trust. You'll have a solid understanding of what mushrooms are really doing inside our bodies and how to unlock the secret health powers they hold. Should mushrooms become a regular part of your weekly shop rather than an occasional side dish? And if fungi have evolved alongside humans for millions of years, what else might they reveal about the future of nutrition and health?

Too often, young people have been the silent victims of the justice system.As our prison population gets bigger, so do the numbers of young people living with a parent incarcerated. They form one of the most overlooked groups in our society, with little known about their needs or experiences. That leads to them being forgotten about when it comes to policy-making and support networks, or even worse, dangerous assumptions, rhetoric and stereotypes formed about them.This episode of Let's Talk Social Work is dedicated to helping to bring this topic out of the shadows. With a growing body of research now being committed to spotlighting the lived experiences of children with a parent in prison, we're proudly doing our bit to promote this issue to social workers. As with any professionals, social workers may well meet young people through the course of their practice who are experiencing life with a parent in prison. This discussion will explore ways to support and build trust with young people as well as outline many of the challenges and barriers they might face, based on first-hand accounts from a recent study carried out in Australia.Host Jonny Adamson is joined by one of the authors of the study, Associate Professor Catherine Flynn, Head of Social Work at Monash University, Maia Ihemeje, founder of Yung Prodigy, a youth-led organisation focused on mobilising young people affected by parental and kinship incarceration, and Dr Lorna Brookes, founder of Time-Matters UK and Associate Professor at Liverpool John Moores University.They also discuss what could change at policy level to improve the lives of children living with a parent in prison and why this group has seemingly gone unnoticed in both the UK and Australia for so long.Our thanks to James Ede at BeHeard Productions for producing the episode.Supporting children living with a parent in prison: Learning from young people (British Journal of Social Work) - https://academic.oup.com/bjsw/article/56/3/1139/8340010Yung Prodigy - https://yungprodigy.org/Time Matters UK - https://www.timemattersuk.com/ Hosted on Acast.

From the World Congress of Anesthesiologists in Marrakech, TopMedTalk hosts Mike Grocott and Kate Leslie discuss perioperative cardiac risk assessment with Hilary Grocott, Professor and Head of, The Department of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology & Therapeutics (University of British Columbia) and Michelle Chew Professor of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden, and editor for the British Journal of Anaesthesia. The conversation reviews perioperative cardiac biomarkers, noting abundant prognostic data but limited evidence for biomarker-led management. The discussion emphasizes that elevated troponins can reflect non-cardiac complications (AKI, PE, sepsis) as well as myocardial injury or heart failure, requiring context-specific follow-up pathways. The group highlights NT-proBNP as a specific marker for heart failure and useful for screening and optimization. The podcast then focuses on pulmonary hypertension and failing right ventricle: detect via history, exam, echo, and biomarkers; prioritize preemptive preparation, arterial beat-to-beat monitoring, modest fluids, early vasopressors/inotropes (norepinephrine, low-dose epinephrine), ventilatory optimization, and vigilant, rapid intervention. If you enjoyed this piece there's a fantastic Perioperative Profile with Michelle Chew you can hear here: https://topmedtalk.libsyn.com/perioperative-profiles-professor-michelle-chew-on-seizing-opportunities-in-anaesthesia-research-editing-and-guideline-work -- Join us at Evidence Based Perioperative Medicine (EBPOM) World Congress 2026 in London.

This week we ask which companies oppose climate action — and whether ownership structures make a difference. Most people see action on climate change as essential. But powerful lobbies continue to push the other way. Understanding what drives corporate opposition to climate policy therefore matters enormously. New research examines one underexplored factor: company ownership structures. Are publicly listed firms more likely to oppose climate action than privately held ones? Does it matter how concentrated a company's ownership is, or how short-term its investors' horizons are? And what are the implications for governments trying to advance climate policy? Joining host Alan Renwick to discuss the findings is Jared Finnegan, Lecturer in Public Policy at the UCL Department of Political Science and one of the study's co-authors.

Eine Zahl aus dem Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, die so ziemlich allem widerspricht, was Du in den vergangenen zehn Jahren über „echtes“ Krafttraining gehört hast.In dieser Folge räumt Mark mit einem der hartnäckigsten Dogmen der Fitness-Welt auf und zeigt Dir, warum reine Grundübungen Dich auf einem Plateau festkleben lassen können – und was Du stattdessen tun solltest. Du erfährst: Was die aktuelle Studienlage WIRKLICH zum Vergleich Grundübung vs. Isolation sagt – mit drei Ergebnissen, die selbst erfahrene Trainierende überraschen Wie die Wissenschaft zeigt, dass richtiges Krafttraining altersbedingte Muskelveränderungen nicht nur stoppt – sondern umkehrt Die Tischler-Formel: Wann Du den Hobel benötigst, wann Du zum Schleifpapier greifen solltest Die 80/20-Regel für effektives Krafttraining – und warum sie für die Ü40-Crew besonders wertvoll ist Drei Quick-Wins, die Du sofort umsetzen kannst Viel Spaß beim Reinhören!____________*WERBUNG: Infos zum Werbepartner dieser Folge und allen weiteren Werbepartnern findest Du hier.____________

Episode SummaryWomen have up to 70-80% lower creatine stores than men — and most of us have never been told that. In this episode Lisa digs into what that means for your brain, sleep, mood, muscles, and energy, and why creatine may be one of the most underreported tools in women's health right now.What You'll LearnWhat creatine actually is and why it matters beyond the gymWhy women have lower creatine stores — and why that gap widens in perimenopauseHow creatine supports brain energy (ATP) and what happens when levels run lowThe research on creatine and memory, processing speed, and mental clarityWhy creatine may reduce depression symptoms — more so in women than menCreatine and sleep: the adenosine mechanism, the 2024 women's RCT, and the 2025 perimenopause findingsThe University of Kansas Alzheimer's pilot studyCreatine + resistance training for muscle and bone health over 40How much to take: 5g for general health vs. 10g for brain-specific benefitsStart HereReady to heal your metabolism? thinlicious.com/happyStudies ReferencedCognitive Function & MemoryXu et al.

What should Dr. Ian McWhinney's legacy be? Join CFP Editor Dr. Nick Pimlott and Associate Editor Dr. David Ponka in a wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Iona Heath about her essay “Continuity of care should be Dr. Ian McWhinney's lasting legacy”. This layered essay is a contemporary reflection on Ian McWhinney's third principle that the family physician sees every contact with his patients as an opportunity for prevention or health education. For 35 years Dr. Iona Heath practiced comprehensive family medicine in Kentish Town in London, UK. Dr. Heath is a past President of the Royal College of General Practitioners in the United Kingdom. Her essays on the nature and the state of general practice have been published in the British Medical Journal, the British Journal of General Practice, Clinical Medicine, and Canadian Family Physician and elsewhere. The essay and the books discussed in the podcast can be found at the following links: https://www.cfp.ca/content/cfp/72/4/230.full.pdf; https://canongate.co.uk/books/2244-a-fortunate-man-the-story-of-a-country-doctor; https://www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/395860/the-spirit-level-new-edition-by-richard-wilkinsonkate-pickett/9780241954294).

It's time to move beyond the fear-based conversation around testosterone and start discussing the science. Testosterone is not simply a “male hormone.” It plays a critical role in women's physiology — influencing muscle mass, endurance, motivation, cognition, mood, metabolic health, sexual function, recovery, and overall vitality. In this video, I explore: • The evidence behind testosterone and physical performance • Significant improvements in muscle mass and time to exhaustion (running) • Why free testosterone matters more than total testosterone alone • SHBG, albumin binding, and equilibrium dialysis • Genetic differences in androgen receptor sensitivity (CAG repeats) • Why there is no single “optimal” testosterone number for every woman • The importance of individualized dosing and monitoring • Long-term safety data, including transgender testosterone research More than 95% of testosterone is bound to SHBG and albumin. Hormonal physiology is nuanced, individualized, and far more complex than many outdated narratives suggest. The reality is this: When properly prescribed, dosed, and monitored, testosterone therapy is remarkably safe. Referenced studies include: • British Journal of Sports Medicine (May 2020) Effects of moderately increased testosterone concentration on physical performance in young women: a double blind, randomised, placebo controlled study https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z8dvTerB0fnXRhYZ8Y2dwivRHgZKvu_6/view?usp=sharing • Louise Newson pilot study on cognition and mood Effect of transdermal testosterone therapy on mood and cognitive symptoms in peri- and postmenopausal women: a pilot study https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TxdsaiYIzKtsTmSD5NLBazeUeC250Bya/view?usp=sharing • Long-term transgender testosterone safety data Trans men can achieve adequate muscular development through low-dose testosterone therapy: A long-term study on body composition changeshttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1aoDrxl7rMUoHLEIgXI8KAM38pg9W6vhf/view?usp=sharing Bone Safety During the First Ten Years of Gender-Af rming Hormonal Treatment in Transwomen andTransmenhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1D47vmWxnWr9I_DBMOGcfzakZ8dGNQUMF/view?usp=sharing The efficacy, safety, and outcomes of testosterone useamong transgender men patients: A review of the literaturehttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1M11Qvii1geSYaIr141iedD75IAKV-PAX/view?usp=sharing

Entzündungen gelten oft als etwas Schlechtes – aber ganz so einfach ist es nicht. In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, was eine Entzündungsreaktion im Körper überhaupt ist. Außerdem schauen wir uns an, welche Rolle Ernährung dabei spielt: Welche Ernährungsmuster wirken eher antientzündlich?  Zum Schluss geht es um eine spannende Frage für Sportler:innen: Kann eine antientzündliche Ernährung die Regeneration verbessern – oder blockieren wir damit vielleicht sogar wichtige Trainingsanpassungen?  ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

In parts of the Global South, political elites have framed LGBTQ rights as a foreign, colonial agenda. So should advocates abandon universal rights language in favour of arguments rooted in local traditions and anti-colonial sentiment? A new study tests exactly this question using survey evidence from Zimbabwe — and finds clear support for the local approach. Host Alan Renwick is joined by the study's authors, Phillip Ayoub and Adam Harris, both Professors in the UCL Department of Political Science. Mentioned in this episode: Rooting Equality: Testing the Effectiveness of Activist Frames Combating Homophobia in Zimbabwe by Phillip M. Ayoub and Adam S. Harris, British Journal of Political Science.

In this episode, we return to Iain McGilchrist as he spirals upwards from his binary hemispheric model into full cosmic spirituality. The rule is simple: everything McGilchrist likes is due to the subtle, nuanced, and deeply sophisticated right brain, while the left brain (pffft) is responsible for reductionism, modernity, and most of the problems in your life.From this neuroscientific foundation, the theory expands with admirable ambition. Civilisations rise and fall depending on which hemisphere they inhabit. Ancient societies were properly attuned to the right brain, while the modern world has gone mechanical and spiritually bankrupt. The details are, of course, very complex, but the moral is clear.Scientific evidence features occasionally, mostly in a decorative capacity or as parables of scientists being baffled by mystical forces. Hence, we learn that decapitated worms retain perfect memories, Nobel Prizes have been awarded for demonstrating a mystical direction powering evolution, and near-death experiences establish that memories form when the brain isn't functioning.Alongside this hard science, McGilchrist also ventures into more spiritual realms, where we learn that artificial intelligence is likely to be channelling demons, schizophrenia might be caused by malign spiritual forces treating our brains as a luxury resort, and recently exorcised demons prefer to communicate via text message. No really...Ultimately, what matters is that McGilchrist's bespoke theology, bespoke metaphysics, bespoke biological teleology, and bespoke panentheist philosophy are really very impressive. And if you don't find any of it compelling, well, we are sad to inform you that this itself proves you are stuck in the wrong mode of thinking and failing to recognise true profundity.And if that doesn't work, then let's just say it was all a metaphor anyway!LinksAlex O' Connor: Why Evolution Gave You Two Brains - Iain McGilchristJonathan Pageau: Artificial Intelligence, Possession, and Mental Illness - Dr. Iain McGilchristThink Faith: Philosopher Iain McGilchrist DEBATES neuroscientist Anil Seth on God & minds | Uncommon GroundSpezio, M.

1717 kommt es auf Schloss Weißenstein unter dem Landgraf von Hessen-Kassel zu einem besonderen Experiment: Johann Bessler, der als Orffyreus in Erscheinung trat, präsentiert eine ewig laufende Maschine, die in der Lage sein sollte, Mühlen in Gang zu halten, Bergwerke auszupumpen, Förderkörbe zu heben, Sümpfe auszutrocknen und natürlich sollte sie auch die Wasserspiele in den Lustgärten betreiben – ohne weitere Energiezufuhr. Wir sprechen in der Folge über das Leben von Johann Bessler und warum das Perpetuum Mobile gerade am Vorabend des Dampf-Maschinenzeitalters einen Höhepunkt erreichte.

Cancer is on everyone's mind right now, and the research has finally caught up. In this episode, Leanne and Susie unpack the largest ever study on diet and cancer risk, published just weeks ago in the British Journal of Cancer. With data from 1.8 million people tracked over 16 years, the findings are genuinely surprising, and not always in the direction you'd expect. In this episode: The big cancer and diet study (1.8 million people, 17 cancers, 16 years) A landmark new study compared cancer risk across meat eaters, poultry eaters, pescatarians, vegetarians, and vegans. The results are more nuanced than the headlines suggest. Pescatarians showed lower rates of colorectal, breast, and kidney cancers. Vegetarians had lower rates of pancreatic, breast, prostate, kidney cancers, and multiple myeloma. But here's what almost nobody is reporting: vegans showed a statistically higher risk of colorectal cancer, and vegetarians had a significantly elevated risk of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Leanne and Susie break down what this actually means in real life, including how much red meat is too much, why processed meat is a completely different conversation to lean red meat, and whether most of us really need to go vegetarian to meaningfully reduce our cancer risk. Easter hot cross buns: what the nutrition actually looks like They're in supermarkets from Boxing Day and some of this year's flavours are genuinely surprising (yes, there's a Dorito one). Susie and Leanne rank the best and worst options, break down the calorie difference between mini, standard, and indulgent varieties, and explain when a hot cross bun can actually be the right pre or post workout nutrition choice. Product review: Noon protein milk drink A new breakfast-on-the-go drink has landed in Woolworths and the nutrition panel is genuinely impressive. 18 grams of protein, 6.3 grams of fibre, 580 milligrams of calcium, and a clean, milk-first ingredient list. Leanne breaks down whether it stacks up against Up and Go and who it is and isn't suitable for. Listener question: the best vegetarian meat replacements If you are vegetarian or cooking for one, this segment is worth listening to twice. Leanne and Susie name the specific products and brands they actually recommend in clinic, explain why Quorn mince beats most of the plant-based aisle on protein and fat, and cover the marinated tofu options that even tofu-sceptics tend to enjoy. Whether you eat meat every day, are trying to eat less of it, or are navigating a vegetarian household, this episode gives you real, evidence-based clarity without the extremism that tends to surround this topic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

About the Talk How do we make reliable decisions when our scientific models cannot predict outcomes with absolute certainty? In this episode, Our Associate Director, Dr Roberto Fumagalli, sat down with the speaker of our first Public Lecture under the Market Economies and Green Ideals project, Prof Roman Frigg, to unpack the philosophy of science, physics, and environmental modeling. We explore why treating scientific models like literary fiction can actually improve our understanding of reality, the limits of climate predictions, and how policymakers and private insurers navigate deep uncertainty. The Guest Roman Frigg is Professor of Philosophy and Head of Department at LSE's Department of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method. He is the winner of the Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. He is a permanent visiting professor in the Munich Centre for Mathematical Philosophy of the Ludwig-Maximilians- University Munich, and he held visiting appointments in the Rotman Institute of Philosophy of the University of Western Ontario, the Descartes Centre for the History and Philosophy of the Sciences and the Humanities at the University of Utrecht, the Sydney Centre for the Foundations of Science of the University of Sydney, and the Department of Logic, History and Philosophy of Science of the University of Barcelona. He was associate editor of the British Journal for the Philosophy of Science and member of the steering committee of the European Philosophy of Science Association. He currently serves on a number of editorial and advisory boards. Roman holds a PhD in Philosophy from the University of London and masters degrees both in theoretical physics and philosophy from the University of Basel, Switzerland. His research interests lie in general philosophy of science and philosophy of physics, and he has published papers on climate change, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, randomness, chaos, complexity, probability, scientific realism, computer simulations, modelling, scientific representation, reductionism, confirmation, and the relation between art and science. His current work focuses on predictability and climate change, the foundation of statistical mechanics, and the nature of scientific models and theories.

In most sports, men compete against men and women compete against women. That is generally considered fair, because men are faster, more powerful and have greater endurance.But there is an ongoing controversy about transgender women - people who were born male and now identify as women. Is it fair for them to compete in the women's sport category or do they have an advantage?A study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine recently added to the debate with an analysis that found the strength and fitness of transgender women is “comparable” with that of women.More or Less looks into the research to explain what it does, and does not, say.Contributors:Professor Alun Williams, Manchester Metropolitan UniversityCredits:Presenter: Charlotte McDonald Reporter: Tom Colls Production co-ordinator: Brenda Brown Sound Mix: Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon

The UK's anti-money laundering system involves 88 organizations across policy, supervision, and enforcement, but does this complex network actually work? In this episode, host Robert Barrington speaks with Diana Bociga about her research using social network analysis to map how these organizations collaborate. Diana's findings reveal a system operating across two disconnected dimensions, strategic policy-making and tactical intelligence-sharing, where engagement in one often doesn't translate to the other. While public sector bodies serve as crucial brokers connecting different parts of the network, some brokerage roles are duplicated while others are missing entirely. The conversation explores whether the solution to improving effectiveness lies in adding more connections or fundamentally rethinking how the network is organized.

Morgellons disease has been searched more in Portland, Oregon than any other city on Earth for 22 consecutive years according to Google Trends data from 2004 to present. Portland scores 100 on the search interest index. Seattle is second at 86. Boca Raton Florida third at 80. By country the United States leads at 100, Canada 76, Austria 57, Italy 53, Germany 50.No published paper on Morgellons disease has ever investigated the geographic clustering of cases in Portland Oregon. This episode asks why.Jesse Keller MD at Oregon Health and Science University OHSU is the only researcher in the United States conducting molecular bench science on Morgellons tissue. His 2023 paper in Archives of Dermatological Research found elevated oncostatin M expression in lesional skin biopsies of Morgellons patients compared to healthy controls. Oncostatin M is an inflammatory cytokine known to sensitize pain and itch neurons. His 2024 paper in British Journal of Dermatology documented that Morgellons patients report lower quality of life than patients with psoriasis atopic dermatitis and prurigo nodularis.

Return of Tyranny explains why counterrevolutions both emerge and succeed, marshalling original data on counterrevolutions worldwide since 1900. It also offers a fresh perspective and new evidence on the reversal of Egypt's 2011 revolution, one of the most prominent recent episodes of counterrevolution. The book forwards a movement-centric argument that emphasizes the strategies revolutionary leaders embrace, both during their opposition campaigns and after they seize power. Movements that wage violent resistance and espouse radical ideologies establish regimes that are very difficult to overthrow. By contrast, democratic revolutions like Egypt's are much more vulnerable – though the book also identifies a path by which they too can avoid counterrevolution. By preserving their elite coalitions and broad popular support, these movements can return to mass mobilization to thwart counterrevolutionary threats. In an era of resurgent authoritarianism worldwide, Return of Tyranny sheds light on one particularly violent form of reactionary politics. Meet our speakers Killian Clarke is an Assistant Professor in the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, affiliated with the Center for Contemporary Arab Studies. His research focuses on revolution, protest, democratization, and authoritarianism with a regional focus on the Middle East. He is the author of Return of Tyranny: Why Counterrevolutions Emerge and Succeed (Cambridge University Press, 2025), as well as peer-reviewed articles in the American Political Science Review, Annual Review of Political Science, British Journal of Political Science, and World Politics. Hazem Kandil is the Cambridge University Professor of Historical and Political Sociology, Fellow of St Catharine's College and Head of Department. He studies power relations and social interactions, focusing on war, regime change, intellectuals and ideology in America, Europe, and the Middle East. He holds a PhD in Sociology from UCLA, and MA degrees in Political Theory and International Relations. His publications include Power Triangle: Military, Security, and Politics in Regime Change (Oxford University Press 2016), Inside the Brotherhood (Polity 2014), and Soldiers, Spies, and Statesmen (Verso 2012). Kandil received the Philip Leverhulme Prize (2014) and a ProFutura Scientia Fellowship (2016). After finishing a book project on US military campaigns from 1960 to the present, he started a new one on encounters with Critical Theory. Meet our chair Katerina Dalacoura is Associate Professor in International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science, and Director of the LSE Middle East Centre. She held a Major Research Fellowship by the Leverhulme Trust between 2021 and 2024. The project findings will shortly be published as a book monograph by Cambridge University Press, under the title Islamic International Thought in Turkey: History, Civilisation and Nation.

The Killing Fields (1984), directed by Roland Joffe, depicts the Khmer Rouge takeover of Cambodia and the genocide that followed, which resulted in the death of approximately 2-3 million people. The film is based on the experiences of New York Times journalist Sydney Schanberg (Sam Waterson) and Cambodian journalist Dith Pran (Haing S. Ngor). It provides a haunting depiction of mass violence as well as a moving story about these two colleagues and friends. In the wake of the 50th anniversary of the Khmer Rouge takeover of Cambodia, it is worth revisiting a film that is as powerful and relevant today as when it was released.Timestamps:0:00      Introduction2:16       The Khmer Rouge and Year Zero6:04      The U.S. contribution to the Cambodian genocide8:14        The role of journalists in Cambodia and conflict zones17:34      The treatment of journalists under international law18:46     The killing fields and the film's impact24:08    Sydney Schanberg and Dith Pran, and journalistic ethics34:10     The ECCC and transitional justice in Cambodia42:44     Journalists and international criminal proceedings47:50     Haing Ngor and his tragic fate53:26     Civil society endeavors to bring history to life55:21      The fall of Phnom Penh 59:03    The failed attempt to get Dith Pran out1:00:15  The risks facing journalists today Further reading:  Becker, Elizabeth, When the War Was Over: Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge Revolution (1988)Brown, Mark, “Genocide Films, Public Criminology, Collective Memory,” 53 (6) The British Journal of Criminology (2013)   Chandler, David P., The Pol Pot Regime (1991)Kiernan, Ben, Genocide in Cambodia (Revised ed. 2008) Ngor, Haing (with Warner, Roger), Survival in the Killing Fields (1987)Nunn, Nora, "Rose-Colored Genocide: Hollywood, Harmonizing Narratives, and the Cinematic Legacy,” 14(2) Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal 65 (2020)Schanberg, Sydney H., The Death and Life of Dith Pran (1985)Shawcross, William, Sideshow (1979) Law on Film is created and produced by Jonathan Hafetz.

Michelle Chew is a Professor of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden, and editor for the British Journal of Anaesthesia. Hear her sharing her Perioperative Profile on TopMedTalk with Andy Cumpstey. After initial anaesthesia training in Denmark, she moved to Lund University, Sweden, combining clinical work and research, later establishing her own experimental haemodynamics group studying septic and haemorrhagic shock and myocardial changes. She balances academic and family life by prioritizing rather than seeking "life balance," noting challenges for women in academia despite Scandinavian support. She explains journal editing—from rapid assessment, literature checks, peer review coordination, to feedback synthesis—and entered the field via the European Journal of Anaesthesiology, later serving at BJA and other journals. She also describes developing clinical guidelines, emphasizing expert panels, systematic reviews, consensus, and local adaptation, with involvement in Scandinavian and European anesthesia societies. Throughout, she highlights lessons from mentors and family, especially her grandmother, stresses taking opportunities and putting in the work, and emphasizes that science and clinical medicine ultimately serve patients. -- Join us at Evidence Based Perioperative Medicine (EBPOM) World Congress 2026 in London.
