Drs. Yu and Herzberg discuss recent developments in HER2- and EGFR-targeted therapies for lung cancer, focusing on clinical trial results at ESMO 2025. Key highlights include promising response rates, toxicity profiles, and the potential for these targeted therapies to treat patients with specific genetic mutations, particularly those with CNS metastases.
This week we're coming off a solid crew Christmas party with the Keto Savage crew—good food, good company, and a surprisingly competitive keto dessert showdown. We talk through some of the highlights, including a few creative “brick-based” desserts, cast-iron chaos baking, and why consistency always beats perfection, even when you're experimenting in the kitchen.We also get into holiday logistics around the office—skeleton crew operations, shipping timelines, inventory drops, and how we're handling fulfillment with people traveling. If you're placing orders this week, everything will go out as soon as we're back in the normal workflow, so appreciate everyone's patience around the holidays.On the training side, we break down how things are progressing right now—strength is climbing, bodyweight is stable, and offseason macros are doing their job. We talk deloads, CNS fatigue, training while traveling, and why listening to objective performance markers matters more than just “feeling tired.” There's also some discussion around trail running, endurance work, and getting prepped for upcoming challenges like the mud run.Nutrition-wise, we dig into fasting protocols, including multi-day fasts, water vs. dry fasting, and why neither of us uses fasting as a fat-loss tool. For us, it's about cognitive reset, gut health, and long-term sustainability—never starvation. We also talk through how higher intake, consistent training, and repeatable food choices remove decision fatigue and make progress inevitable.We wrap things up with a broader mindset conversation heading into the new year—why we don't really believe in “resolutions,” why progress is the most motivating force there is, and how committing to small daily actions compounds over time. Whether it's training, nutrition, business, or relationships, you're either moving forward or falling behind—so focus on something you can execute every single day and build from there.Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and we'll see you heading into World Carnivore Month and the start of another strong year.Greg Mahler is also a lifetime natural bodybuilder, and can be followed on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/ketogreg80/Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ
The First Lady of Nutrition Podcast with Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S.
Listen Online: About this episode: The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Tamera Campbell, a dear friend and revered acquaintance. Tamera is the founder of E3LIVE, and the conversation begins in a remote mountain lake in southern Oregon—one of the only places in the world where a rare, nutrient-dense blue-green algae can be harvested sustainably. In this episode, Tamera shares the story behind E3LIVE and explains what makes its signature ingredient, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), so special—from its exceptional purity and rigorous testing to its unique ability to support brain function, mental clarity, immune health, digestion, and cellular nourishment. Ann Louise and Tamera also explore why professional and recreational athletes have gravitated toward AFA for its natural anti-inflammatory properties, recovery support, and sustained energy. They break down the science behind blue-green algae's rare blue pigment—sometimes called the “molecule of love” for how it interacts with the brain—and explain why it's gentle enough for children and infants, yet effective for those with high physical demands.

Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic that provides powerful analgesia while preserving spontaneous ventilation, airway reflexes, and sympathetic tone, which makes it especially valuable in trauma, bronchospasm, difficult airways, and in patients with high opioid tolerance. As a phencyclidine derivative with a chiral center, it exists as two enantiomers, with S-ketamine roughly twice as potent as R-ketamine and associated with fewer unpleasant emergence reactions, while its pKa and balanced water–lipid solubility allow rapid CNS penetration and redistribution-limited offset. Its multimodal mechanism centers on noncompetitive NMDA antagonism but also includes opioid receptor modulation, catecholamine reuptake inhibition, AMPA receptor effects, ion channel blockade, muscarinic antagonism, and anti-inflammatory actions, all of which underpin clinical dosing strategies for induction, maintenance, procedural sedation, and analgesic infusions as well as key considerations around emergence delirium, secretions, cardiovascular status, and ICP.Want to learn more?

In this live Red Delta Project Q&A, Matt digs into a big 2025 lesson that came out of writing Beautiful Strength: diet and exercise can absolutely influence how you look, feel, and perform—but if you chase a goal blindly, your habits can backfire and give you the opposite result. Using a “hit the target” analogy (and a few colorful side stories), he explains why your results come from achieving the right objective, not from grinding harder, eating “cleaner,” or following a program with blind loyalty.From there, the episode turns into a rapid-fire Q&A on practical training topics: whether you need to go to failure with Double Tap Training, how to balance intensity with reps and rest, walking as conditioning, yoga vs direct flexibility work, knee stability, building arms with compounds, grip changes, circuit training for endurance, and more. There's also a surprisingly thoughtful section on accepting hair loss—framed through confidence, control, and reframing the story you tell yourself.
Send us a textA small structural “bump” on a molecule might be the big breakthrough EPM care has been waiting for. We sit down with researcher and clinician Izabela de Assis Rocha to unpack how bumped kinase inhibitors exploit a tiny difference between parasite and mammalian kinases to hit Sarcocystis neurona where it hurts—motility, invasion, and replication—while sparing the horse. It's a molecular strategy with practical promise, and the conversation bridges the stall, the lab, and the future of equine neurology.We break down the science behind CDPK1, the gatekeeper residue that drives selectivity, and why unique parasite structures like the apical complex and apicoplast open new therapeutic lanes. Then we move into what really matters for care: pharmacokinetics and clinical fit. BKI-1708 shows strong systemic distribution that positions it as a prophylactic candidate, while early data on BKI-1553 suggests better CNS penetration and a path toward active EPM treatment. Isabella explains how EPM's dead-end host biology may lower the risk of widespread resistance, a rare bright spot in the antiparasitic landscape.Clinical trials are the hard part. With no robust experimental infection model and fewer than 1% of exposed horses developing disease, enrolling enough cases takes patience and teamwork. We talk about building pragmatic, clinician-led studies, harmonizing diagnostics and neurologic scoring, and tracking relapse to find outcomes that matter to horses and owners. The One Health angle also shines through: BKIs show activity against equine piroplasmosis and have potential roles in toxoplasmosis and cryptosporidiosis, linking equine research to human and livestock health.If you care about evidence-based equine neurology, new antiparasitic strategies, and turning elegant biochemistry into barn-side change, this is your roadmap. Subscribe, share with a colleague who manages EPM cases, and leave a review to help more veterinarians find the show.

Tackling central nervous system (CNS) disease in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer “is a huge problem, both from a quality-of-life perspective for patients and also from a longevity perspective,” explains Sid Devarakonda, MD, director of thoracic medical oncology at Swedish Cancer Institute in Seattle and clinical associate professor at Washington State University. He speaks with Aakash Desai, MD, MPH, associate director of the Phase 1 and Precision Oncology program at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, about how CNS metastases inform choices between regimens. Dr. Devarakonda also discusses how the recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of subcutaneous amivantamab (Rybrevant Faspro) may change his approach. “[Y]ou still need to be comfortable managing some of the toxicities that still persist, even with the subcutaneous formulation, but it's terribly convenient from a practical perspective,” he notes. Dr. Desai and Dr. Devarakonda reported various financial relationships.

Surgery isn't a Netflix nap. It's a high‑stakes team effort where your anaesthetist runs the room, balances risk, and quietly steers you from fear to recovery. We sit with Dr Conrad Makrikanis to decode what really happens before the first dose, why obesity is a medical emergency, and how prehab can slash complications by half.Conrad traces a path from rural retrievals to Brisbane theatres, revealing how prevention often lives in a bubble while most patients arrive in crisis. He breaks down GLP‑1 agonists—how they silence food noise, why they're not a quick fix, and how to protect muscle with resistance training and protein. We go deep on NEAT, the underrated daily movement that improves endothelial health, lowers clot risk, sharpens insulin sensitivity, and speeds wound healing. If you've got joint pain or a surgery date, his blueprint is clear: two strength sessions, two aerobic sessions, eight hours of sleep, six to eight weeks off smoking, minimal alcohol, and a plan for post‑op care at home.We also talk anxiety. Information lowers fear, and a simple pre‑op call with your anaesthetist can change your whole day. Learn the real risks—nausea, soreness, rare awareness—and why timing, age, urgency, and even after‑midnight cases influence outcomes. From Indigenous health contrasts to the power of community programs that drive prehab compliance, this is a candid look at what moves the needle in modern care. The future? Personalised anaesthesia guided by pharmacogenetics and CNS profiles. Until then, prepare like an athlete and recover like a pro.If this conversation helped you feel more prepared, follow the show, share it with a friend facing surgery, and leave a review so more people can find it.

The First Lady of Nutrition Podcast with Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S.
Listen Online: About this episode: The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Dr. Jeremy Chatfield, DDS of Northwest Natural Dentistry, for a fascinating deep dive into one of the most overlooked foundations of detox and overall health: sleep. Dr. Chatfield (a/k/a The Sleep Dentist) explains why activating the brain for peak detoxification begins with high-quality sleep—and how hidden sleep-breathing disorders can quietly push the body into a constant fight-or-flight state. Together, Ann Louise and Dr. Chatfield unpack the surprising role of tongue ties (a major yet often missed cause of sleep apnea and snoring), why nasal breathing is essential for brain and body repair, and how airway dysfunction can ripple into everything from fatigue to inflammation. Listeners will learn how modern solutions like orthodontics, laser therapy, and myofunctional exercises can restore proper breathing—and why nutrition plays a pivotal role in calming airway irritation. Ann Louise also highlights her go-to natural antihistamine, Luteolin, which outperforms many over-the-counter options without the unwanted side effects. If you've been struggling with poor sleep, snoring, mouth breathing, or unexplained fatigue, this episode offers practical, actionable insights you won't want to miss.

Clinicians often zoom in on the knee with an acute meniscus tear, but the body usually has other plans. In this episode, I walk through two client cases who arrived with classic meniscal presentations: pain, swelling, and loss of flexion. But the real driver of their pain at that assessment revealed itself only when I followed LTAP® findings back to the central nervous system.I break down how CNS tension alters dynamic alignment, hip mechanics, and tibiofemoral arthrokinematics, and why this pattern shows up so often in clients with knee pain. You'll hear exactly how I used the LTAP® to identify the true restriction and why the CNS initially mattered more than local knee work.In this episode, you'll learn:• How CNS tension alters gait, hip rotation, and knee loading during daily movement• Why addressing cranial containers can transform lower-extremity biomechanics• How simple sensory-driven treatments can reduce symptoms in structurally injured knees• When to treat locally, when to treat globally, and how to make that call with confidenceThis episode Is a practical reminder that system-level clarity leads to better outcomes, whethers it's in acute or chronic client cases.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Episode 86: Decoding The Nervous System For Health ProsEpisode 94: Understanding The Piriformis PuzzleLearn the LTAP® In-Person in one of my upcoming coursesConsidering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care Professionals
Moxifloxacin is a fourth-generation fluoroquinolone that works by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV—two enzymes essential for DNA replication, repair, and transcription. By blocking both targets, it provides broad-spectrum activity against gram-positive, gram-negative, and atypical pathogens. Its enhanced gram-positive coverage, especially against Streptococcus pneumoniae, distinguishes it from earlier fluoroquinolones like ciprofloxacin. Pharmacokinetically, moxifloxacin has excellent oral bioavailability, meaning the PO and IV doses are essentially interchangeable. It distributes well into tissues like the lungs and sinuses, making it a frequent choice for respiratory infections. With a long half-life of about 12 hours, once-daily dosing is standard. Adverse effects are similar to the fluoroquinolone class, with concerns including tendonitis and tendon rupture, QT interval prolongation, CNS effects like confusion or agitation—particularly in older adults—and the risk of peripheral neuropathy. Moxifloxacin is especially notable for a higher propensity toward QT prolongation compared with some of its peers, making it important to avoid in patients with existing QT issues or those taking other QT-prolonging medications.

Can an acute injury, like a sudden shoulder subluxation, still have visceral or neural influences worth treating? In this episode, I unpack why even the most straightforward orthopedic cases often have deeper layers that shape pain, recovery, and movement quality.I share a case of a collegiate softball athlete whose chronic subluxations suddenly flared after a rough bout of COVID and why her lack of progress with rehab made perfect sense once I assessed her through a whole-organism lens view. You'll hear how lung restrictions, altered thoracic mobility, and neural tension were driving poor scapular mechanics that her strengthening program could never overcome. A few targeted treatments changed her symptoms instantly and shifted her entire rehab trajectory.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why acute pain presentations often include visceral and CNS influences, even when trauma is obvious• How post-infection thoracic mobility changes can alter scapular mechanics and create instability patterns• How to differentiate true tissue instability from altered neural output• Practical ways to influence supraclavicular, phrenic, and brachial plexus input when local loading isn't toleratedThis episode will help you sharpen your lens for the cases that look simple on the surface but demand deeper, more connected reasoning underneath.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Episode 16: Why The Shoulder Comes LastEpisode 69: Why Your Shoulder Treatments Might Not Be EnoughChange your approach to treating shoulder pain and dysfunction with my course - Never Treat The Shoulder FirstLearn the LTAP® In-Person in one of my upcoming coursesConsidering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

The episode covers propofol's drug class and chemistry, its lipid emulsion formulation and infection risk, and key physicochemical properties including high lipophilicity and protein binding. Listeners learn the mechanism of action at the GABA A receptor, translating into CNS effects, cardiovascular and respiratory depression, and no analgesia. The discussion walks through pharmacokinetics and context‑sensitive half‑time in a clinically practical way, tying concepts to infusion planning and dosing strategies for various cases. Major adverse effects, toxicity including propofol infusion syndrome, allergy and infection‑control practices, and drug synergies are highlighted, with high‑yield clinical pearls on patient selection, hemodynamics, and airway rescue.REFERENCES: Nagelhout JJ, Elisha S, Heiner JS, eds.

Després de prop de set anys com a regidor Jaume Monasterio ha comparegut aquest matí per explicar els motius pels quals ha decidit deixar la primera línia política i que passen per una tria personal acompanyada de cert esgotament per situacions viscudes que considera injustes i injustificades. Monasterio marxa satisfet per alguns dels projectes assolits amb ell al càrrec com és el Camp Polivalent de Pins Vens, la canalització del carrer Espalter i Bassa Rodona o la implantació del contracte de neteja i recollida de residus. Qui demà, al ple municipal de novembre, s'acomiadarà formalment del càrrec ha volgut destacar altres projectes menys visibles però que considera imprescindibles per a la vila com la substitució del col·lector d'aigua, la recuperació del Mercat Vell i l'Escorxador o el pla de mobilitat urbana i sostenible. Monasterio deixa altres projectes pendents de realització però engegats com el nou camp de futbol de la UESitges o l'estació d'autobusos. Monasterio ha fet referència també al punt d'inflexió que ha tingut la liquidació del Consorci del Club Natació en la decisió de la seva marxa després d'assolir-se amb la venda de les instal·lacions via subhasta a un privat, en aquest sentit Monasterio considera que el més important és haver pogut salvar la natació formativa a Sitges. La compareixença ha comptat també amb la presència de l'alcaldessa i cap de llista d'ERC Aurora Carbonell que ha posat en valor la tasca feta per Monasterio i que ha confirmat que el substituirà en el càrrec de regidor el número vuit de la llista, Daniel Martínez, qui s'ocuparà de les mateixes àrees que el seu predecessor, Esports i Projectes i Obres. L'entrada Jaume Monasterio plega de regidor un cop liquidat el consorci del CNS: “podria marxar més satisfet però hem aconseguit que no es perdés la natació formativa” ha aparegut primer a Radio Maricel.
Matias interviews James (Jim) Gorman MD PhD from the Wyss Institute. Jim is Principal Investigator on the Wyss Institute Brain Targeting Program (BTP). Jim leads a team developing new approaches to transport drugs through the blood brain barrier (BBB) into the CNS.In this episode, we discuss:Why the BBB blocks most modern drugs from entering the brain, creating the biggest bottleneck in neuroHow brain shuttles hijack natural transport pathways like the transferrin receptor to move drugs across the BBBHow new modalities that reach the brain can potentially treat diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS, and lysosomal disorders Why delivery route of shuttles enable IV or subcutaneous dosing instead of invasive intrathecal injectionsHow early data shows that shuttle-enabled antibodies clear amyloid faster, at lower doses, and with fewer side effectsHow the field is accelerating through a pre-competitive consortium model that lets multiple companies share shuttle platformsCredits:Created by Greg Kubin and Matias SerebrinskyHost: Matias SerebrinskyProduced by Caitlin Ner & Nico V.

This week on the Garage Gym Athlete Podcast, we're running three completely different scientific studies through the grinder—and none of us saw each other's ahead of time. Expect surprises, arguments, and some actionable training takeaways you can start using immediately. Jerred digs into a kettlebell snatch protocol that boosted VO₂ max without running. Joe explores how dietary nitrates (think beets, spinach, arugula) improve isometric endurance by 25%. And Dave breaks down a 2025 study showing how heavy strength work dramatically improves running economy, durability, and time-to-exhaustion in well-trained runners. We also kick things off with an update on last week's isometric training experiment—spoiler: it was brutal—and end with a practical roundtable on supplements we actually use. If you train in a garage gym, want science-backed performance strategies, and enjoy a little misery mixed with progress…this one's for you. 00:00 – Intro: This week's study mash-up 00:30 – Isometric training update & why Jerred is wrecked 02:25 – Immovable objects, heavy loads & iso strategy 03:47 – Dave digs into CNS fatigue from the iso session 04:52 – Transition: Let's get into the studies 05:16 – Study 1: Strength training improves running performance 08:48 – 31% improvement in time-to-exhaustion 10:27 – Jerred on heavy lifting for runners 12:04 – Joe on balancing strength, speed & endurance 13:56 – The truth about soreness & "gaining mass" fears 15:28 – Study 2: Nitrates boost isometric endurance (Joe) 18:48 – How much beets/spinach you actually need 19:26 – Joe's real-life beet adventure (never pickled…) 20:53 – Study 3: Increase VO₂ max by 6% with kettlebells (Jerred) 21:16 – VO₂ max simplified — oxygen demand & oxygen debt 23:16 – The 15s on / 15s off kettlebell snatch protocol 25:17 – Circuit training vs kettlebell intervals 27:39 – How to implement the protocol in real training 30:36 – Kettlebells vs running for conditioning 33:32 – Supplement roundtable: what we actually take 34:29 – Joe: nitrates & tart cherry 36:05 – Dave: creatine, protein & coffee 39:28 – Jerred: electrolytes & hydration 42:45 – Are electrolytes supplements or just life? 44:22 – Closing thoughts & "Kill Comfort" reminder

The First Lady of Nutrition Podcast with Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S.
In this jam-packed episode, the First Lady of Nutrition sits down with world-renowned fat expert Dr. Udo Erasmus, author of the groundbreaking classic Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill: The Complete Guide to Fats, Oils, Cholesterol and Human Health. With more than 45 years of research under his belt, Dr. Erasmus brings clarity to one of the most confusing topics in nutrition—the truth about seed oils. Together, Ann Louise and Dr. Erasmus explore the delicate balance between Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats and reveal why it's not the seeds themselves that cause harm—but rather the way oils are processed. You'll discover how high-heat, solvent extraction methods damage fragile oils, destroy essential nutrients, and leave behind toxic residues that can wreak havoc on your health. Dr. Erasmus also explains why more health damage comes from damaged oils than from any other single factor—and how using the right oils in the right way can transform your energy, metabolism, and longevity. Learn why fresh, organic, cold-pressed oils are vital, why you should never fry with them, and how to store them properly to protect their healing power. This spirited discussion is packed with “truth bombshells” that will forever change the way you look at fats and oils. Tune in and find out how to get your oils straight—and your health back on track. The post The Real Truth About Seed Oils first appeared on Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS.

Can you gain real muscle with isometric holds and little to no equipment? We break down a 2025 study comparing long-muscle-length isometric training to full range of motion isotonic work for quadriceps hypertrophy in trained lifters. We translate the science into simple setups you can use at home or in a hotel gym, explain why long-length positions matter, how to hit a true 10 RPE on static holds, and when to pair pre-exhaust sets with isometrics for serious growth without beating up your joints. What you'll learn: Isometric vs isotonic for hypertrophy and when isometrics can win How to find and hold true long-length positions for chest, back, quads, and hamstrings Making bodyweight isos hard enough to matter with 30-second max-effort holds Joint-friendly use cases for tendons, pain, deload weeks, and travel A plug-and-play isometric session you can try today Sample session: Pull: Chin-over-bar hold to failure, 4 sets Push: Handstand push-up iso 3 to 6 inches off the floor, to failure, 4 sets Quads: Wall sit at or just below parallel, 30-second max holds, 4 to 6 sets Unilateral: Rear-foot-elevated split-squat iso, back knee 1 inch off floor, 30 seconds, 4 sets per leg Optional overload: Pins, fixed bands, or plates on lap for wall sits Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:00 The 2025 study in plain English 03:30 Why long-length isometrics drive growth 06:50 Execution cues: 30s holds and true 10 RPE 08:30 Rehab and tendon applications 10:40 Pre-exhaust plus isos for hypertrophy 12:45 Minimal equipment programming ideas 15:10 Full sample isometric workout 20:20 Soreness, CNS load, and recovery 23:10 Movement skill benefits and coaching cues 27:45 Key takeaways and next steps Links: Free trial of our programming: https://garagegymathlete.com
Grazing. Chronic stress. Poor sleep. Rushed meals. Sitting for long hours. Underfueled workouts. Estrogen decline. There's a lot more behind our fasting glucose and A1C than how many carbs we eat. This week we return to one of the most consistently requested topics: blood sugar meaning and management with Liz McKinney, CNS, LDN. We explore what glucose spikes really mean, why time-in-range and variability matter more than a single peak, and how stress, sleep, and even eating speed affect your numbers. We cover carb timing, meal sequencing, post-meal walks, creatine, why under-fueling can make exercise spikes worse, and much more so you can keep glucose working for your performance and overall health.Liz McKinney, CNS, LDN, heads up the clinical nutrition team at Nutrisense. Liz holds a Master of Science degree in Clinical Nutrition and Integrative Health and is a board-certified nutrition specialist (CNS) as well as a licensed dietitian nutritionist (LDN). In her time as a nutritionist, Liz has educated and counseled hundreds of clients in areas such as weight loss, hormonal imbalances, and gastrointestinal diseases. Her approach is rooted in the tenets of functional medicine, and she strives to identify the root cause of the issue instead of simply treating the symptoms. She realizes there is no one-size-fits-all approach to achieving optimal health and feels it is crucial to be in an equal partnership with her clients.

Synopsis: Jim Tananbaum, Founder & CEO of Foresite Capital, joins Rahul Chaturvedi to dissect the patterns driving biotech innovation, the role of macroeconomic cycles in venture performance, and how disciplined science fuels enduring investment success. Drawing from three decades across entrepreneurship and venture leadership, Jim reflects on his path from co-founding drug discovery startups with Harvard collaborators to building one of the most respected investment firms in life sciences. He unpacks how interest rate environments shape fund vintages, why AI is emerging as the next transformative platform, and how investors can identify enduring opportunities amid volatility. Their discussion spans valuation compression, AI-driven discovery, CNS and Alzheimer's innovation, and the geopolitical forces influencing biotech globally. Jim's perspective offers a masterclass in balancing scientific rigor with strategic foresight — and in positioning capital where breakthrough innovation meets sustainable impact. “Lean into areas where there's likely to be immense change,” Jim advises — a principle as relevant to biotech investing as it is to shaping the future of healthcare itself. Biography: Jim is the founder and CEO of Foresite Capital, a healthcare investment firm founded in 2011 that has approximately $3.5B in assets under management. Jim assembles the people, ideas, and money needed to launch products that save lives and improve healthcare. During the last three decades, Jim has been a thought partner for some of the fastest-growing companies of their generation, including 10x Genomics (Nasdaq: TXG), Amerigroup (Nasdaq: ANTM), and Jazz Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: JAZZ). Jim's entrepreneurial experience began at Harvard Business School when he co-founded GelTex Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:GENZ). With less than $80M in funding, GelTex brought two drugs to market, and the company was acquired in 1999 for $1.4B. Jim was also the founding chief executive of Theravance, Inc. Under his tenure, he raised over $350M. Theravance has since split into two parts, one of which is now part of GSK's respiratory franchise through a joint venture, Innoviva (Nasdaq: INVA), and the other was spun out into Theravance Biopharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: TBPH). Together, they achieved a market capitalization that exceeded $4B. Jim's investment experience includes co-founding Prospect Ventures and, earlier in his career, being a partner of Sierra Ventures, where he established its healthcare services investment practice. Jim graduated from Yale with a BS and BSEE in Applied Math and Electrical Engineering/Computer Science. He then earned an MD from Harvard, graduating from the Harvard/MIT HST Program. He also earned an MBA from Harvard while playing rugby.
