Could studying the DNA of extinct animals – or even bringing them back to life – help us save today's endangered species and inform modern medicine?  That may sound like the premise for a Hollywood movie, but it's work that our Raise the Line guest, Dr. Beth Shapiro, is actually engaged in as Chief Science Officer at Colossal Biosciences, which describes itself as the world's first and only de-extinction company.  “It's not just about learning about the past. It's learning about the past so we have more validated scientific information that we can use to predict what we can do to better influence the future,” she tells host Michael Carrese. An internationally-renowned evolutionary molecular biologist and paleogeneticist, Dr. Shapiro is a pioneer in ancient DNA research and has successfully sequenced genomes, like that of the dodo, to study evolution and the impact on humans. At Colossal Biosciences, she leads teams working to bring back traits of extinct species such as the mammoth, not for spectacle, but to restore ecological balance. “When species become extinct, you lose really fundamental interactions between species that existed in that ecosystem. By taking a species that's alive today and editing its DNA so that it resembles those extinct species, we can functionally replace those missing ecological interactions.” Tune into this utterly fascinating conversation to hear about what Jurassic Park got wrong, the positive ecological impact of reintroducing giant tortoises to Mauritius, and the ethics of using gene editing and other biotechnologies. Mentioned in this episode:Colossal Biosciences If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Satellite Tracking Reveals Increased Global Population Exposure to Floods (2000–2018). Professor Beth Tellman (Chief Science Officer and co-founder of Cloud to Street; Professor at the University of Arizona geography) discusses her peer-reviewed study, published in Nature magazine, using satellite imaging from NASA's Aqua and Terra satellites, equipped with the MODIS optical sensor, to track global flood events. This systematic mapping provides hard data of actual events, augmenting the global flood database, covering 913 observed flood events between 2000 and 2018. Her research identified an increase of up to 24% in the proportion of the population exposed to floods, indicating people are moving faster into flood plains than the general population growth rate. Limitations of the data include satellites being blocked by cloud cover and difficulty tracking sudden events like dam breaks or pluvial events. A significant concern is the underreporting bias of damaging floods in regions like sub-Saharan Africa. 1913 DAYTON

We live in an age where truth twists into confusion, opinion drowns out data, and it's increasingly difficult to figure out whose expertise we can trust.Where did our mistrust in expertise come from? Its roots stretch back to deliberate misinformation campaigns beginning in the 1950s spread by the likes of Big Tobacco, Big Oil, and conservative church movements. Then social media poured gasoline on the fire, accelerating the spread of misinformation and making sowing division highly profitable.Misinformation campaigns take advantage of our brains' natural tendency to protect the familiar and mistrust outgroups. And they capitalize on the very real betrayals people have experienced at the hands of corporations, governments, schools, and healthcare systems.Our challenge now isn't just knowing the facts, it's interrogating our own beliefs, asking where our evidence comes from, and resisting the pull of certainty. As leaders, we need to discern who we give our attention to, practice critical thinking, resist manufactured controversy, and platform voices committed to both truth and connection.Today's guest is a neuroscientist and author of Why Brains Need Friends, who works to make science accessible, relational, and rooted in respect. He doesn't focus on winning arguments or shaming people into submission. He focuses on bridging divides, building trust, and reminding us that our brains–and our lives–are wired for connection.Ben Rein, PhD is an award-winning neuroscientist and science communicator. He serves as the Chief Science Officer of the Mind Science Foundation, an Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, and a Clinical Assistant Professor at SUNY Buffalo. He has published over 20 peer-reviewed papers on the neuroscience of social behavior, and is the author of Why Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social Connection. In addition, Rein educates an audience of more than 1 million social media followers and has been featured on outlets including Entertainment Tonight, Good Morning America and StarTalk with Neil DeGrasse Tyson. He has received awards for his science communication from the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine, the Society for Neuroscience, and elsewhere.Listen to the full episode to hear:How an especially vivid nightmare redirected Ben's path to neuroscienceWhy the division and isolation of modern life is so bad for our brains and overall healthHow engaging with strangers isn't as awkward as we often think it is, and why we should do it moreHow small social interactions build our sense of belonging, community, and wellbeingWhy we need to recognize and then override our gut reactions to those we perceive as belonging to outgroupsHow social media sound bites vastly oversimplify the complex and unknown systems in our brainsWhy Ben's primary mission to to help people understand the value of looking to data and evidence rather than personalities and experiencesWhy we all have to get better at fact-checking and questioning why we're ready to believe somethingLearn more about Dr. Ben Rein:WebsiteInstagram: @dr.benreinWhy Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social ConnectionLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:Golden Holocaust: Origins of the Cigarette Catastrophe and the Case for Abolition, Robert N Proctor"Assessing ExxonMobil's climate change communications (1977–2014),” Geoffrey Supran and Naomi Oreskes, 2017 Environmental Research Letters 12 084019The Creationists: From Scientific Creationism to Intelligent Design, Ronald L.

Could the secret to fertility and hormone balance be found in mushrooms?

I’m joined by Neal Mercado, Chief Science Officer at Melrose, one of Australia’s leading wellness brands and the team behind Melrose Future Lab. Neal leads a thought-provoking conversation on ageing, vitality, and the science behind what really works. We unpack the difference between lifespan and health span—because it’s not just about living longer, but living well. From cellular senescence to musculoskeletal strength, we look at ingredients leading wellness conversations and the future of longevity science. Neal also lifts the lid on supplement quality, why not all extracts are created equal, and explains the concept of bioavailability to actually move the needle. If you’re navigating perimenopause, curious about longevity, embarking on strength training, or trying to make sense of the supplement aisle, this episode will help you cut through the noise and make informed, future-focused choices. In partnership with Melrose Future Lab. Key Takeaways: Health span means more years lived well, not just longer Cellular senescence (aka “zombie cells”) reduces function as we age Berberine can support healthy blood glucose and AMPK activation Quality matters: not all herbal extracts or proteins are created equal Collagen, especially bovine-derived, supports muscle health Strength training is essential for bone density in menopausal women Supplement bioavailability is as important as the ingredients themselves Innovative formulations are changing how we absorb nutrients Menopause research is decades behind other women’s health areas Perimenopausal women benefit from tailored support and active nutrients Intermittent fasting and autophagy support cellular repair Effective supplements are about formulation—not fads Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/g1OFqhrIl1ISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas welcomes Gene Dedick, Chief Science Officer of H2Plus, who brings more than 35 years of expertise in water research, industrial chemistry, and advanced treatment technologies. Gene shares the remarkable story behind his team's breakthrough discovery: using hydrated electrons to permanently destroy PFAS—so-called “forever chemicals”—rather than simply capturing or containing them.He explains in clear terms how disrupting hydrogen bonds in water unleashes powerful hydrated electrons, capable of breaking the stubborn carbon-fluorine bonds that make PFAS so dangerous. With H2Plus's patented process, Gene highlights how this technology achieves high destruction rates, cuts costs in half compared to competing methods, and produces no harmful byproducts.Looking ahead, Gene explores how these innovations could reshape global water treatment—addressing not only PFAS but also pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and endocrine disruptors that increasingly contaminate drinking water. He also shares groundbreaking research showing the health benefits of H2Plus-treated water, including enhanced cellular energy and performance in independent university studies.With a mission to make water safer and people healthier, Gene and his team are proving that science-driven innovation can help us tackle some of humanity's most urgent environmental and health challenges.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review.

“For anyone, women especially who are interested in the energy and climate space, I would say that you shouldn't feel that you need to choose between the public sector, the private sector, and the nonprofit sector. I've been able to continue to build my expertise in the energy and climate space, but from multiple different perspectives. My advice would be to just not feel that you need to pick one of those lanes and, and to take the risk to bounce between those different segments of our economy.”  Claire Seaborn on Electric Ladies Podcast Summer is a good time to think about your next career move. These five women trailblazers have some great advice. These are all women who Joan Michelson interviewed at length on Electric Ladies Podcast over the past year, and who have all broken down barriers to get where they are, blazing a trail for the rest of us.

What happens when you combine a decade of science, a powerful entrepreneurial story, and two exponential waves—AI and digital biology?You get Geneoscopy.On the latest episode of The Scope Forward Show, I caught up with Dr. Erica Barnell—Co-founder and Chief Science Officer of Geneoscopy. If you don't know Erica yet, you should. She and her team just raised $112 million in a tough VC environment. Their lead assay, ColoSense, is now the first FDA-approved, RNA-based, non-invasive diagnostic test for colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas.But this conversation went far beyond funding and FDA milestones.We talked about:How AI has replaced costly bioinformatics layers and transformed their R&DHow patients are being guided through diagnostics via smart automation (text, email, even Uber Health)What's next in IBD precision diagnostics and biomarker innovationWhy AI is not “artificial” at all—and how to use it without fearWhy GI, like OB/GYN, is primed for disruptionThis wasn't just a company update—it was a glimpse into the future of our entire field.We're in a convergence era. Biology is becoming programmable. Intelligence is being digitized. And GI—if we lean in—has a front-row seat to reinvent itself.

Are there ways to detect the presence of Alzheimer's dementia early, so preventive measures can be taken to reverse or slow its progression? In this special episode of Nerds' Nook, we join Dr. Krista Kostroman, Chief Science Officer of The DNA Company, in diving into the study of how APOE4 plays a factor to late onset dementia, and ways on how to prevent it. We know that certain diet and lifestyle changes can slow or even reverse dementia symptomology. Therefore, looking at the brains of those suffering with late-onset depression might give them a seven-year head start by making those changes before symptoms even appear.  #Alzheimersdementia #dementia #lateonsetdepression #dementiatreatment Medical Disclaimer: The information provided in this communication is for general informational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

What if the key to healing chronic illness wasn't found in a pill bottle, but in the same frequencies that naturally flow from the sun? In this illuminating episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with Robby Besner, Chief Science Officer and co-founder of Therasage, whose personal journey from desperate father to wellness pioneer has revolutionized how we think about detoxification and healing. Over 25 years ago, when his daughter was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease, Robby watched conventional treatments drain their finances while providing minimal relief. Frustrated and determined, he dove deep into research and discovered the profound healing power of infrared frequencies — the same therapeutic wavelengths our bodies have evolved to receive from natural sunlight. You'll learn how infrared sauna therapy works differently than traditional sauna therapy, why regular detoxification practices are paramount in today's toxic world, and how subtle shifts — like sequencing your healing protocols — can make a profound impact on outcomes. Robby also unpacks the science behind bio-resonance, vibrational healing, and the hidden link between inflammation, toxicity, and cellular repair.   Whether you're dealing with chronic illness, seeking daily wellness optimization, or simply curious about the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern technology, this conversation will transform how you think about your body's innate ability to heal.

“Food systems have to do with everything from production to processing, distribution, and the utilization. Then of course, end of life for food systems which includes food waste. In the United States, 40% of the food that we produce goes to waste. This means with distribution challenges that not everybody has equitable access to the kinds of foods that they need and want, at the times that they need them." Robin Currey on Electric Ladies Podcast  Climate change is disrupting our food and agriculture systems, including the critical supply chains that feed and clothe us. Yet, these same supply chains can also hold the key to regenerative agriculture, especially in the face of extraordinary new scientific innovation. Women make or influence 85% of consumption decisions, so they/we can play a critical role in driving what companies and farmers produce.   Listen to this live recording of a session at The Earth Day Women's Summit at Earthx2025 with a panel moderated by Electric Ladies Podcast's Joan Michelson. You'll hear surprising ways that industries are creating solutions within supply chains, tapping into technologies to help us produce and consume more sustainably. The panel includes: Robin Currey, on the efforts underway to help food systems adapt to climate change through agricultural biodiversity. Alison Ward, CEO of CottonConnect, on efforts to engage women farmers in sustainable, regenerative agriculture practices. Zara Summers, Chief Science Officer at LanzaTech, on how carbon emissions are converted into sustainable materials for clothing, food, and fuel. Joan Michelson, Executive Producer of The Earth Day Women's Summit and host of Electric Ladies Podcast. And, insightful career advice… “If you can combine something you're passionate about with something you're good at, and you can make that into a career, that is success. Find other women that will be prepared to give back to help careers and connect. We have a Women in CottonConnect group where we are really looking at how we can advance women in our organization. “Not everything has to be an enormous career step. When I joined CottonConnect, it was a relatively small organization that has since grown into a much larger one. But it was something I was passionate about, and I've been fortunate to have a great team and great advisors around me.” Alison Ward on Electric Ladies Podcast   You'll also like: Alison Ward, CEO of CottonConnect, on how female farmers are transforming cotton.

A graduate of Amherst College, the University of Chicago Law School, and Harvard Medical School, Dr. Kessler has spent his career at the intersection of science, policy, and consumer protection. He served as Dean of the Yale School of Medicine and the University of California, San Francisco Medical School, and most recently held the role of Chief Science Officer for the White House COVID-19 Response Team. Dr. Kessler is the acclaimed author of several influential books including the New York Times bestseller The End of Overeating, Fast Carbs, Slow Carbs, and his latest work, Diet, Drugs & Dopamine: The New Science on Achieving a Healthy Weight. His writing and research have been pivotal in shifting the public health conversation from willpower to biological understanding—especially regarding food addiction, the manipulation of hyper-palatable foods, and the role of dopamine in modern eating behaviors. A true trailblazer in the field, Dr. Kessler has dedicated decades to unraveling the powerful science behind why we eat the way we do—and how we can reclaim our health in a world of ultra-processed foods. Dr. Kessler shares his personal journey with weight regain and the "aha moment" that led him to call it what it is—addiction. He explores the role of GLP-1 medications, the dark side of food addiction, and how we must move beyond willpower to tackle this epidemic with compassion, science, and actionable tools.
