Ämnet för den här veckan är en artikel i tidskriften Neuron med titeln Conceptual and methodological flaws undermine claims of a link between the gut microbiome and autism. Som titeln på artikeln avslöjar så visar författarna till artikeln att det idag inte finns några bra belägg för att tarmfloran påverkar risken för autism eller autismsymptom. Författarna visar det här både genom att visa att det inte finns någon anledning att tro att andelen personer på autismspekrat har förändrats nämnvärt över tid och genom att visa att de studier som påstår sig ha visat en länk har stora metodologiska problem.

In Young Minds Big Maths, university mathematicians and early years educators collaborate to explore mathematics. We discuss how the project led us to create a booklet to help educators discover maths through play in their settings. The booklet uses real-life examples of ramp play—something children love—to show how building and experimenting with ramps reveals rich mathematical ideas.   Read the article here: https://thevoiceofearlychildhood.com/exploring-maths-through-ramp-play-with-young-minds-big-maths/   This episode is sponsored by Funding Loop   Funding Loop automates the process for nurseries of collecting funding forms from parents and typing that information into council portals.

In this episode of Room to Grow, Curtis and Joanie reconsider the balance of conceptual understanding and procedural fluency in math instruction. Although this topic has been discussed before, our hosts acknowledge that there is great nuance and many considerations in considering these two ideas in the teaching and learning of mathematics.Curtis and Joanie discuss how inquiry-based, discovery-style learning opportunities are more open ended, are student centered, and are less teacher directed. They support these types of lessons in math instruction while recognizing that there are times when an explicit approach where teachers are sharing important information also has a place. Additionally, our hosts consider that teaching procedures and algorithms also provides and opportunity to cultivate conceptual understanding. When teachers help student find the  conceptual understanding within the procedures, they engage in mathematical reasoning. This type of reasoning through concepts and procedures contributes to a broader and more robust understanding of meaningful mathematics. Additional referenced content includes:·       NCTM article From Rules That Expire to Deeper Mathematical Thinking.

This week, we are joined by Kevin Mitchell, Associate Professor of Genetics and Neuroscience at Trinity College Dublin, who has committed the unforgivable sin of pointing out that an entire academic and media hype cycle might be built on… well, very little actually. His new co-authored paper in Neuron politely dismantles the highly promoted link between the gut microbiome and autism, which turns out to rest on flawed studies, contradictory findings, creative statistics, and a touching faith in mice burying marbles.Kevin walks us through the joys of observational studies that don't replicate, mouse experiments that don't make sense, and clinical trials where there is no blinding and no control wing, and shockingly, everyone reports feeling better. Meanwhile, journalists and wellness gurus eagerly report each new “breakthrough”, unburdened by any concerns about the strength of evidence or methodological robustness.In the end, the microbiome–autism connection looks less like a sturdy scientific stool and more like three damp twigs taped together by optimism and marketing departments.We finish, naturally, by dragging Matt back out of his panpsychism phase and asking whether consciousness is really fundamental to the universe or just something that happens in podcasters who haven't slept enough.LinksMitchell, K. J., Dahly, D. L., & Bishop, D. V. (2025). Conceptual and methodological flaws undermine claims of a link between the gut microbiome and autism. Neuron.Kevin Mitchell's Website

Habrá quien cuente la proliferación de la guayabera entre las catástrofes derivadas del cambio climático. Hasta hace pocos años su uso solo se justificaba si, como en la canción, uno era ese tipo de hombre que tiene "un hermoso y lindo cafetal", quizá porque el español medio se abrocha una guayabera y de pronto se le pone cara de secundario de Narcos. Vivimos un mundo de nostalgias imprecisas, y basta ser un nativo digital para que te encanten los puros, los toros y las guayaberas. Basta que tus padres te llamaran Pasionaria para luego meterte a carmelita de clausura. A mí me da que Sánchez -como dirían los politólogos- le ha robado el marco conceptual a más de uno al ponerse esta camisa que hasta ahora parecía, como el fachaleco, votar a la derecha.

Conceptual performance artist and activist Nadya Tolokonnikova is the creator of Pussy Riot, a global feminist art movement. She was sentenced in 2012 to 2 years' imprisonment following an anti-Putin performance Punk Prayer. Punk Prayer was named by The Guardian among the best art pieces of the 21st century. Tolokonnikova's Putin's Ashes art installation at Jeffrey Deitch Gallery in January 2023 propelled her into a new criminal case and put on Russia's most wanted criminal list. In 2024 her debut museum exhibition RAGE, opened at OK Linz, Linz, Austria, and the eponymous performance piece performed at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin. In 2025, Tolokonnikova has solo shows at Honor Fraser gallery (Los Angeles), Nagel Draxler (Berlin) and MOCA (Los Angeles). She and I discuss memory, books, Environmental consciousness, young motherhood, Feminism, how to run from the police and protect yourself as an activist, equality, being a mom, survival mechanisms, freedom of thought, how criticism does not equal hate, making things better, how people are not even trying, spreading something good, how paradise is within you, radical activism, the minuscule audience for contemporary art, places of liberation, enchanted and magical art balanced with the raw, and not being dumber than AI, ideas first, thinking while walking, what's the future of creativity, solidarity, moments of gratitude, making things beautiful, and imagining the impossible!

Ep. 205 (Part 2 of 2) | In the fourteenth dialogue in the A. H. Almaas Wisdom Series, Hameed Ali explores the nonconceptual nature of the dimension of pure awareness, guiding us into the realm that lies beyond conceptual dichotomies such as being/nonbeing, being/doing, duality/nonduality, good/bad, and meaningful/meaningless. Beyond knowing, this dimension exposes and challenges conceptual polarities, and when we arrive at this level of realization we are able to trust letting go of knowingness and wake up to pure awareness. People fear annihilation at the prospect of going beyond concepts, Hameed explains, and it does lead to a death: the death of mind, the death of the doer. But even here beyond knowing, Hameed continues, the nonconceptual always operates from compassion and love. How do we develop a continuity of nonconceptual awareness? Roger and John wonder. One way is when knowing is integrated into being, Hameed answers. Then everything just happens; the doing is funneled through the individual. And there is another way, through developing the “pearl beyond price,” the individual, Hameed adds, but this way is rare. As co-host Roger Walsh says, this is an especially nourishing, stimulating, and intriguing discussion, with Hameed doing a beautiful job of relating how our concepts form the basis of our existence and what it means to transcend them, let go of our mind, deconstruct our perception of ourselves as the “doer,” and wake up to pure awareness.

Welcome back to The Hours Podcast, presented by SAVI Basketball! Hosts Mark and Tyler are fresh off program clinics and dive straight into the trenches of coaching philosophy and defensive installation.In this must-listen episode, they break down the common barriers coaches face when transitioning to a conceptual system like the Lock Left Defense (which they successfully installed in just 90 minutes!). They tackle the critical challenge of unlearning deeply ingrained defensive habits—from the archaic "choppy feet close-out" to the ineffective "hands up" mantra.Discover the difference between playing man-to-man and executing a system, why your players must genuinely love your defense, and the true power of holding a seemingly small standard like "Knees and Noise." This episode is a masterclass in intentional coaching, offering practical ways to elevate your practice standards, teach with clarity (Show, Don't Tell), and empower your defense to force turnovers and bad shots by strategically "making the ball go."

I couldn't think of a better guest than Rozz Lewis for this podcast interview about the new ERB subject in the curriculum, mainly because we talk about it endlessly in our house.

Conceptual "dog" sound effects, a surreal experience with Ray Davies, and a spiritual Californian yard sale. John Myrtle "Originally hailing from Birmingham and now based in London, John Myrtle began carving his brand of slightly off-kilter, loveable bedroom pop in 2019 with demos he uploaded to SoundCloud. Having caught the ears of Marc Riley on BBC 6 Music, John was invited to play a live session, and soon his EP ‘Here's John Myrtle' was self-recorded to tape and released to critical acclaim from the likes of The Line of Best Fit, Brooklyn Vegan, DIY and So Young Magazine. John followed this up with home-produced mini-album Myrtle Soup in 2021, which was met with equal critical praise and garnered fans from the likes of Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos, Summer Salt, The Walters and Foxygen member and producer Jonathan Rado - whom John's 2024 single ‘How Do You Break a Heart?' was produced by. Recently, John has embarked on several tours across Europe and the rest of the world supporting the likes of Kate Bollinger and Cut Worms, and John is set to delight and warm hearts with his most accomplished album yet this summer. ‘Irresistible' - Marc Riley, BBC 6 Music ‘John is creating his own world of sonic magic' - So Young Magazine ‘Pop that's wonderfully lost in time' - Brooklyn Vegan" Excerpt from https://open.spotify.com/artist John Myrtle: Bandcamp: https://johnmyrtle.bandcamp.com Instagram: @john__myrtle Website: https://www.johnmyrtle.co.uk Records: https://johnmyrtle.bandcamp.com Merch: https://www.johnmyrtle.co.uk/shop The Vineyard: Instagram: @thevineyardpodcast Website: https://www.thevineyardpodcast.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@thevineyardpodcast

The International Baccalaureate (IB) emphasizes concept-driven inquiry. In the Primary Years Programme (PYP) learners explore broad and transferable ideas, enabling deeper thinking and application across different contexts. This powerful way of thinking and learning begins with our younger learners who inquire into the world around them and develop conceptual understanding through both educator-led experiences and play.   Read Sue's article here: https://thevoiceofearlychildhood.com/elevating-childrens-thinking-conceptual-understanding-through-inquiry-and-play/   This episode is sponsored by the International Baccalaureate: Founded in 1968, the International Baccalaureate (IB) pioneered a movement of international education and now offers four high quality, challenging educational programmes to students aged 3-19.

Tyler, The Creator says "Don't Tap The Glass" isn't a concept album. No narrative. No deep themes. Just a fun, fast, braggadocious dance record. But what if that is the concept? In this video essay, we dive deep into Don't Tap The Glass to uncover the album's hidden intentionality — from its crate-dug samples and alter-ego iconography to its sacred rules of the dance floor. Through cultural history, sonic connections, and Tyler's own words, we explore how this album frames dance as a spiritual ritual, freedom as resistance, and joy as high art. Topics Covered: The spiritual meaning behind the album's opening Hebrew sample Big Poe as a tribute to hip hop history and Tyler's alter-ego iconography How Tyler uses crate-digging to honor Black dance music traditions The deeper meaning of the album's 3 rules — and why they matter now more than ever Sample breakdowns: from Mantronix to Junun, “Boogie Nights” to J Dilla Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Room to Grow, Joanie and Curtis continue the season 5 series on the Mathematics Teaching Practices from NCTM's Principles to Actions, celebrating it's 10th anniversary. This month's practice is “Build procedural fluency from conceptual understanding.”  This is defined as follows: Effective teaching of mathematics builds fluency with procedures on a foundation of conceptual understanding so that students, over time, become skillful in using procedures flexibly as they solve contextual and mathematical problems. Using some discussion about multiplication, our hosts try to differentiate what is meant by conceptual understanding and by procedural fluency. They tease out the confusion that can arise by associating conceptual understanding with inquiry-based instruction and procedural fluency with direct instructional strategies. Although these types of instruction often go together, they are different, and separating them can help educators focus on how to best get to student learning. Additional referenced content includes:·       NCTM's Principles to Actions·       NCTM's Taking Action series for grades K-5, grades 6-8, and grades 9-12·       NCTM's position paper on Procedural Fluency (January 2023 – membership not necessary) Did you enjoy this episode of Room to Grow?

Eckhart talks with a live audience about letting go of our false sense of self. He says when we base our identity on externals: our looks, what we do and where we live - that's the ego. In that state, we're either inferior or superior; never equal. True relationships become impossible. But when we're grounded in essential being, the need to compare disappears and we discover we are infinitely precious.

Tevin Juwan Brown, assistant video coordinator for the Dallas Mavericks, dives into the Mavs' use of small-sided games.

In this episode, we're digging into the second pillar of the Army's leadership model: KNOW. Now, this isn't just military theory—it's a practical reminder that leadership isn't about winging it. It's about showing up prepared, grounded, and equipped. Whether you're in uniform, running a business, or leading in your home, the principles are the same. Leadership starts with who you are—your character, your values. That's the BE. But once you've got that foundation, you need to sharpen what you KNOW—the skills and knowledge that make you credible and effective. This is where competence is built, and trust is earned. To master the “KNOW” side of leadership, you've got to build in four key areas: Interpersonal, Conceptual, Technical, and Tactical skills. These aren't just categories—they're tools you carry every day. They help you lead with clarity, confidence, and relevance in a fast-changing world. Let's break them down. At the heart of leadership is the ability to connect with people. I'm talking about real connection—not just giving orders or checking boxes. This means listening, asking the right questions, and learning what drives the people around you. If you want to build trust, get out of your office. Walk the floor. Ask your team what matters to them, how their job fits into the bigger picture, and what gets them fired up—or frustrated. People aren't problems to be solved—they're relationships to be built. And those relationships? They're your force multipliers. Leadership is a thinking game. It requires mental agility—being able to step back, look at the big picture, and make sense of complex, high-stress situations. This includes critical thinking—spotting your own blind spots and questioning your assumptions. It's creative thinking—asking, “What if we did this differently?” And it's sound judgment—the ability to make the hard calls when the pressure's on. No amount of skill can replace the power of good judgment forged through reflection and experience. You don't need to do everyone's job—but you do need to understand it. You should know the systems, tools, and processes your team relies on. If you're leading a creative team, learn the basics of the software they use. If you oversee logistics, understand how the supply chain actually moves. When you understand the tools, you earn credibility. And more importantly, you can make better decisions. This technical foundation strengthens your tactical edge. This is where the rubber meets the road—decision-making in real time, under pressure. Tactical leadership isn't theory—it's action. It's knowing how to move when the path isn't clear and making calls when there's no time to phone a friend. The best way to build tactical skill is through experience—real or simulated. Get into environments where the stakes are high. Test yourself. Learn what it feels like to make decisions when everything's on the line. Over time, you'll start recognizing patterns, trusting your instincts, and leading with confidence—even in chaos. Here's the deal: competence grows with responsibility. The more people you lead, the more sharpened your skills need to be. You don't “arrive” as a leader—you keep growing. So how do you build that growth into your life? Try this: Seek Feedback – Don't lead in isolation. Invite input. Ask people you trust, “Where can I grow?” Study and Reflect – Make reflection a daily practice. Think through decisions. Learn from outcomes. Master the Tools – Learn your trade. Stay sharp. Stay relevant. Train Under Pressure – Volunteer for the hard things. Get comfortable being uncomfortable. Leadership is preparation. It's not just about knowing what to do—it's about being the kind of leader who's ready when it counts. When you combine who you are with what you know, you build trust. And when people trust you, they'll follow you—even when the way forward isn't clear. So focus on your KNOW. Stay a student. Keep sharpening your edge. Because leadership isn't about being perfect—it's about showing up ready, reliable, and real.   Connect with Tim: Website: timstatingtheobvious.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/timstatingtheobvious Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHfDcITKUdniO8R3RP0lvdw  Instagram: @TimStating Tiktok: @timstatingtheobvious   00:00 Introduction to Leadership Framework 01:06 Understanding the ‘Know' Phase 02:58 Interpersonal Skills: Building Connections 04:41 Conceptual Skills: Critical Thinking and Creativity 06:47 Technical Skills: Mastering Your Tools 08:03 Tactical Skills: Decision-Making Under Pressure 09:49 Practical Steps to Enhance Leadership Skills 12:25 The Importance of Preparation in Leadership #LeadershipDevelopment #ArmyLeadership #LeadershipSkills #ProfessionalGrowth #CareerDevelopment #CriticalThinking #CommunicationSkills #DecisionMaking #PersonalDevelopment #TimStatonTheObvious
