Are you ready to unlock your entrepreneurial power? In this inspiring episode, we challenge the narrative that educators aren't equipped to succeed in business. Drawing from her journey from classroom to CEO, our host shares how the skills you've mastered as an educator—like creating buy-in, analyzing data, and strategic planning—are the very foundation of running a thriving business. It's time to embrace an unwavering belief in your potential, bet on yourself, and step boldly into entrepreneurship. **KEY POINTS:** **Mindset Shifts for Educators:** Stop undervaluing your expertise! If you can manage a classroom or lead a school, you can run a business. A district, a school, even a classroom operates like a mini-business, and you already have the tools to succeed. **Sales = Creating Buy-In:** As an educator, you've mastered persuading students, staff, or parents toward shared goals. That's sales! Use this skill to confidently pitch your ideas and grow your business. **Data Analysis for Business Growth:** From exit tickets to quarterly benchmarks, you've already built the muscle for collecting and analyzing data. In business, this translates to tracking KPIs, evaluating profit and loss, and making informed decisions to scale. **Strategic Planning Mastery:** Lesson plans and instructional strategies are the blueprint for success in the classroom—and in business. Break down your vision into actionable goals and take consistent steps toward growth. **Building Community and Investing in Growth:** Surround yourself with like-minded entrepreneurs, attend transformative events, and invest in programs that amplify your skills and network. "If you can run a classroom of 30+ kids, you can run a business."_ It's time to leverage the skills you already have and step into entrepreneurship with confidence. Let's rewrite the story and build a community of educators-turned-entrepreneurs who are making an impact and living their dreams.

Policy Seminar | IFPRI Policy Seminar Mobility in a Fragile World: Evidence to Inform Policy Co-organized by IFPRI, the CGIAR Science Program on Food Frontiers and Security, and the Louvain Institute of Data Analysis and Modeling in Economics and Statistics (LIDAM), IRES | Part of the Fragility to Stability Seminar Series September 18, 2025 Migration today reflects a complex interplay of demographic pressures, conflict, poverty, climate change, and economic shocks. Worldwide, one in every seven people is a migrant—that is, someone who changes his or her country of usual residence, irrespective of the reason for migration—or a refugee forced to leave his or her home, often without warning, for reasons including war, violence, or persecution. Over the past two decades, international migration and forced displacement have surged, with more than 100 million additional people on the move—a large share of whom originate from rural areas, driven by a lack of economic opportunities, environmental degradation, and insecurity. The number of refugees has doubled since the early 2000s, with most hosted by low- and middle-income countries. Ongoing conflicts and intensifying climate crises have compounded vulnerabilities, leaving 80% of displaced people facing acute food insecurity. Climate change-related displacement disproportionately affects women, who are also at heightened risk of violence and exploitation during migration journeys and in host communities. This policy seminar will explore these complex dynamics and assess how economic analysis, machine learning, and policy innovation can contribute to more inclusive, equitable, and effective responses to migration and forced displacement. Moderator Welcome Remarks Katrina Kosec, Interim Deputy Director, CGIAR Science Program on Food Frontiers and Security; Senior Research Fellow, IFPRI Opening Remarks Ruth Hill, Director, Markets, Trade, and Institutions, IFPRI Setting the Stage: The Migration Challenge Anna Maria Mayda, Professor of Economics, School of Foreign Service and Department of Economics, and Incoming Director, Institute for the Study of International Migration (ISIM), Georgetown University (GU) Research in Action: This three-part session will showcase how current research is shaping better migration policies Silvia Peracchi, Postdoctoral Fellow, Institute of Economics and Social Research (IRES), Louvain Institute of Data Analysis and Modeling in Economics and Statistics (LIDAM), UCLouvain Francisco Ceballos, Research Fellow, IFPRI Thomas Ginn, Research Fellow, Center for Global Development Building the Evidence Base for Smarter Policy in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Contexts: What Are the Gaps and Needs Panelists Andrew Harper, Special Advisor on Climate Action, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Damien Jusselme, Head, Data Science and Analytics (Foresight), International Organization for Migration (IOM) Jean-Francois Maystadt, Professor, Fonds de la Recherche Scientifique (FNRS), Louvain Institute of Data Analysis and Modeling in Economics and Statistics (LIDAM) / Institut de Recherches Économiques et Sociales (IRES), Université catholique de Louvain, and Lancaster University Management School Closing Remarks Kate Ambler, Senior Research Fellow, IFPRI More about this Event: https://www.ifpri.org/event/mobility-in-a-fragile-world-evidence-to-inform-policy/ Subscribe IFPRI Insights newsletter and event announcements at www.ifpri.org/content/newsletter-subscription
In Episode 93 of the Digital Velocity Podcast, Erik Martinez sits down with Ginger Grant, a seasoned data strategist, to explore how artificial intelligence and machine learning are reshaping the fundamentals of business analysis and decision-making. Ginger shares her unique perspective on the crucial distinctions between generative AI and machine learning, highlighting why accuracy, data quality, and the right questions matter more than ever. She explains why companies must address messy, fragmented data before they can effectively harness AI, and how grounding models in proprietary data unlocks more reliable business insights. Listeners will gain insights into: • Why machine learning has a more immediate impact than generative AI for business-critical tasks • The persistent challenge of data organization and the dangers of Excel-driven reporting • How companies like Goldman Sachs are grounding AI models in proprietary data to achieve accuracy • Why dashboards and rote reporting are ripe for automation—and where humans remain indispensable • How leaders can encourage AI adoption without stoking fear of job loss, through training and intentional change For direct-to-consumer marketers and cross-industry leaders alike, Ginger offers actionable guidance on how to move beyond data collection toward true business impact. From defining success metrics to ensuring critical thinking remains at the core of analysis, this episode is a must-listen for executives and marketers preparing to navigate the future of AI-driven decision-making.

Grant, Matt, and Randy gear up to discuss precision, accuracy, and variability in wildlife studies. They dive into how variability measures data spread, using range, quartiles, standard deviation, variance, and coefficient of variation (CV).Accuracy reflects closeness to the true value, precision shows clustering of estimates. Standard errors, confidence intervals, and Bayesian credibility intervals quantify estimate precision. Required precision depends on study goals, sample size, and application, ensuring reliable, interpretable, and actionable results for wildlife management and conservation.They wrap up with some examples, but the take home message is deciding how precise results need to be hinges on the question and resources.Cite this episode: https://doi.org/10.7944/usfws.wbtn.s01ep011DOI Citation Formatter: https://citation.doi.org/ Episode music: Shapeshifter by Mr Smith is licensed under an Attribution 4.0 International License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/https://freemusicarchive.org/music/mr-smith/studio-city/shapeshifter/

We welcome back legal marketing expert Gyi Tsakalakis, President of AttorneySync and host of the Lunch Hour Legal Marketing podcast. Five years after Gyi's first appearance on Technically Legal, he discusses the dramatic shifts in digital marketing for law firms, driven largely by the rise of artificial intelligence. Gyi highlights how AI is changing the landscape for lawyers, from automating back-office functions and data analysis to influencing content creation and search engine optimization (SEO). He explains why law firms must diversify their marketing channels beyond just Google to adapt to the new era of conversational search and AI overviews. Despite these technological advances, Gyi emphasizes that the human connection, including a simple handwritten note, remains the most powerful tool in an attorney's arsenal. He argues that as technology automates the mundane, it forces lawyers to focus on the relationships and empathy that truly differentiate their practice. Key Takeaways: Diversify Marketing Channels: Law firms must move beyond a "one-trick pony" approach with platforms like Google and diversify their client acquisition strategies to include social media, email, and local events. The Problem with Client Intake: Gyi discusses the persistent issue of lawyers not responding to inquiries and how AI can help automate certain parts of the intake process, though the human touch is still crucial for building trust. Do What the Bots Cannot: Attorneys should leverage AI for tasks that can be automated (e.g., scheduling, data analysis) to free up time to focus on complex legal work and building meaningful client relationships. AI for Data Analysis: A powerful, overlooked use case for AI in a law firm is analyzing internal data, such as call transcripts and financial records, to identify blind spots and inform marketing strategies. The Future of SEO and Search: Gyi predicts that search will become more conversational and influenced by AI Overviews and that ad-based models will be integrated into all major AI platforms.
In this episode of Breakaway Wealth, Jim is joined by Blair Gatchell of Breva.ai to discuss how business owners can use artificial intelligence to make better acquisition and management decisions. They examine how replacing gut instinct with real-time analytics can reduce risk, improve cash flow, and create a sustainable framework for growth. 3 Key Takeaways: The Value of a Defined Process – A clear, repeatable process for evaluating and acquiring businesses creates consistency and reduces reliance on intuition. AI as a Decision-Making Tool – Artificial intelligence can assess financial health, identify risks, and surface opportunities faster and more accurately than manual analysis. Post-Acquisition Performance – Technology can help monitor cash flow, measure operational health, and keep managers accountable long after the deal closes. Business ownership requires more than vision—it demands a system for making informed, fact-based decisions. The right tools can help owners identify the best opportunities, manage them effectively, and expand without sacrificing control.

What can you do with a degree with a BSc in Sociology and Politics of Science? Joe talks with Isobel Lim (Sociology and Politics of Science BSc 2022) about life after her UCL degree with us here in STS. She wrote a unique dissertation on Pokemon Go. That influenced her to take up a post with a Indonesian tech startup. There, she gained valuable experience in the collectibles and esports sector. With a long-standing passion for computer games, Isobel transitioned into the rapidly growing esports industry. She highlights Pokemon's entry into esports in 2022 with Pokemon Go and Pokemon Unite. The industry has been growing rapidly, now with immense demand, rapid ticket sell-outs, and global events. Esports have transformed from a niche hobby into a major spectacle. Isobel finds many ways to apply her interdisciplinary interests to the eSports universe. Data analytics was an important start for her. She finds her studies in understanding human behaviour and identifying patterns to be invaluable for navigating the industry's complexities. Her science communication training has been vital for understanding how to expand engagement with fans and identify patterns for monetising this booming market. Interdisciplinary is one of the skills developed during her degree that she covets.

Imagine a world where business users simply fire up their analytics AI tool, ask for some insights, and get a clear and accurate response in return. That's the dream, isn't it? Is it just around the corner, or is it years away? Or is that vision embarrassingly misguided at its core? The very real humans who responded to our listener survey wanted to know where and how AI would be fitting into the analyst's toolkit, and, frankly, so do we! Maybe they (and you!) can fire up ol' Claude and ask it to analyze this episode with Juliana Jackson from the Standard Deviation podcast and Beyond the Mean Substack to find out!

How does an Olympic medalist take 19 seconds off her 800 meter time and nearly beat Katie Ledecky? In this episode, I'm joined by Jaimie Fuller from EO Labs, the creators of the Swim Better Handsets, a company I've worked closely with since their early days to share how this breakthrough tech is transforming performance from helping Paige Madden make that jaw dropping improvement to giving triathletes a way to measure swim power in Watts, sync with training peaks, and use AI to pinpoint exactly where they're losing speed. EO is changing the way we understand the swim leg from Olympic podiums to your local pool.

Welcome back to the Flex Diet Podcast. I'm Dr. Mike T Nelson, and today I've got a great conversation lined up with Coach Troy Beauregard from Canada. We dig into one of my favorite rabbit holes: performance tracking for athletes.We cover why it's so important to keep tabs on what's happening in the gym and how you don't need super-fancy gear to start collecting meaningful data. Of course, we also geek out on the fun toys, from simple tools to cutting-edge tech and even some AI applications that are creeping into sports science.Troy shares insights on hockey-specific acceleration testing, what load monitoring looks like in basketball, and how recovery programs can use force plates and other equipment to really dial things in. The big theme? How modern technology can help athletes perform better and recover smarter—without frying their nervous system in the process.If you're into training, tech, and finding smarter ways to help athletes (or yourself) adapt and recover, you're going to love this one.Sponsors:Beyond Power Voltra 1: https://www.beyond-power.com/michael13PNOE - tell them Dr Mike T sent ya: https://pnoe.comKillswitch for sleep: https://www.switchsupplements.com/DRMIKE use code DRMIKE to save $$Available now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:07:36 In-Game Monitoring and Performance Testing15:35 Real-World Applications and Case Studies22:13 Challenges in Assessing Hockey Players' Performance23:23 Using Moxie Monitors for On-Ice Data Collection23:56 Gender Differences in SMO2 Utilization26:21 Correlation Between Drive Index and Acceleration27:17 Importance of Accurate Performance Metrics29:05 The Role of Cognitive Skills in Athletic Performance41:58 Complexity in Modern Sports45:46 Moxie Testing and Strength Correlation48:03 Understanding Wattage and Oxygen Utilization in Sports Science48:22 Correlation Between Sprint Performance and Power Output48:59 The Importance of Strength and Power in Athletic Training51:19 Experimenting with Strength and Power Training in Hockey54:24 Innovative Training Devices and Technology55:41 Affordable Alternatives for High-Tech Training59:36 The Role of AI and Data Analysis in Sports01:01:54 Closing Thoughts and Future Episodes Flex Diet Podcast Episodes You May Enjoy: Episode 311: Maximizing Athletic Performance with Neurology: Insights from Dr. Dylan Seeley; https://youtu.be/bnuYQ-GJ6toEpisode 308: The Science of Performance: An In-Depth Conversation with Dr James LaValle; https://youtu.be/rmirgNof5ykConnect with Troy:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troybeauregard/Website: https://vo2peak.ca/Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

In general, the value of a fixed-income security falls when interest rates rise and rises when interest rates fall. Longer term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes and subject to greater volatility than those with shorter maturities. High yield and unrated debt securities are at a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds and may be less liquid, which may increase volatility. Private debt investments are generally considered illiquid and not quoted on any exchange; thus they are difficult to value. The process of valuing investments for which reliable market quotations are not available is based on inherent uncertainties and may not be accurate.

Forget everything you think you know about viruses. In the ocean, there are viral giants so large they were mistaken for bacteria for decades – and they're rewriting the rules of marine ecology.Join us as we explore the fascinating world of giant viruses with Benjamin Minch, a PhD student at the University of Miami who has discovered over 230 previously unknown viral genomes using a revolutionary computational tool called BEREN. These microscopic monsters can hijack photosynthesis, manipulate their hosts like puppet masters, and dramatically reshape ocean food webs.Giant viruses are up to 100 times larger than common viruses, with genomes rivaling those of bacteria. Some enhance their hosts' superpowers – boosting photosynthesis and metabolism – before turning infected cells into viral factories. Others cause victims to clump together and sink as marine snow, playing crucial roles in carbon sequestration and climate regulation.From the Baltic Sea's viral treasure trove to practical applications like predicting harmful algal blooms, this episode explores how invisible giants influence everything from ocean food webs to global nutrient cycles.

No fluff — just a head-to-head test with real use cases, visual outputs, and verdicts that could save you hours and serious money.
In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, I, Stewart Alsop, speak with Andrew Einhorn, CEO and founder of Level Fields, a platform using AI to help people navigate financial markets through the lens of repeatable, data-driven events. We explore how structured patterns in market news—like CEO departures or earnings surprises—can inform trading strategies, how Level Fields filters noise from financial data, and the emotional nuance of user experience design in fintech. Andrew also shares insights on knowledge graphs, machine learning in finance, and the evolving role of narrative in markets. Stock tips from Level Fields are available on their YouTube channel at Level Fields AI and their website levelfields.ai.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Andrew introduces Level Fields and explains how it identifies event-driven stock movements using AI.05:00 – Discussion of LLMs vs. custom models, and how Level Fields prioritized financial specificity over general AI.10:00 – Stewart asks about ontologies and knowledge graphs; Andrew describes early experiences building rule-based systems.15:00 – They explore the founder's role in translating problems, UX challenges, and how user expectations shape product design.20:00 – Insight into feedback collection, including a unique refund policy aimed at improving user understanding.25:00 – Andrew breaks down the complexities of user segmentation, churn, and adapting the product for different investor types.30:00 – A look into event types in the market, especially crypto-related announcements and their impact on equities.35:00 – Philosophical turn on narrative vs. fundamentals in finance; how news and groupthink drive large-scale moves.40:00 – Reflection on crypto parallels to dot-com era, and the long-term potential of blockchain infrastructure.45:00 – Deep dive into machine persuasion, LLM training risks, and the influence of opinionated data in financial AI.50:00 – Final thoughts on momentum algos, market manipulation, and the need for transparent, structured data.Key InsightsEvent-Based Investing as Market Forecasting: Andrew Einhorn describes Level Fields as a system for interpreting the market's weather—detecting recurring events like CEO departures or earnings beats to predict price movements. This approach reframes volatility as something intelligible, giving investors a clearer sense of timing and direction.Building Custom AI for Finance: Rejecting generic large language models, Einhorn's team developed proprietary AI trained exclusively on financial documents. By narrowing the scope, they increased precision and reduced noise, enabling the platform to focus only on events that truly impact share price behavior.Teaching Through Signals, Not Just Showing: Stewart Alsop notes how Level Fields does more than surface opportunities—it educates. By linking cause and effect in financial movements, the platform helps users build intuition, transforming confusion into understanding through repeated exposure to clear, data-backed patterns.User Expectation vs. Product Vision: Initially, Level Fields emphasized an event-centric UX, but users sought more familiar tools like ticker searches and watchlists. This tension revealed that even innovative technologies must accommodate habitual user flows before inviting them into new ways of thinking.Friction as a Path to Clarity: To elicit meaningful feedback, Level Fields implemented a refund policy that required users to explain what didn't work. The result wasn't just better UX insights—it also surfaced emotional blockages around investing and design, sharpening the team's understanding of what users truly needed.Narrative as a Volatile Market Force: Einhorn points out that groupthink in finance stems from shared academic training, creating reflexive investment patterns tied to economic narratives. These surface-level cycles obscure the deeper, steadier signals that Level Fields seeks to highlight through its data model.AI's Risk of Amplifying Noise: Alsop and Einhorn explore the darker corners of machine persuasion and LLM-generated content. Since models are trained on public data, including biased and speculative sources, they risk reinforcing distortions. In response, Level Fields emphasizes curated, high-integrity inputs grounded in financial fact.
Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, and Today's Class The automotive parts industry faces a disproportionately high return rate compared to other sectors, driven by misdiagnoses, improper installations, and fraudulent returns. This creates a significant financial burden on manufacturers and the entire supply chain. In this podcast, the guests explore these challenges and emphasize the need for stronger collaboration and communication between manufacturers, distributors, and repair shops. They advocate for a “Check the Part” initiative, encouraging thorough quality checks, proper documentation, and accurate diagnosis to reduce return rates. By adopting these strategies and leveraging technology, the industry can improve profitability, reduce inefficiencies, and boost customer satisfaction.

Guests: Nelson & Louis TuckerWhen it comes to tornadoes, getting close is both the goal and the danger. For decades, scientists have relied on radar, storm chasers, and ground-based instruments to study these violent storms. But what if we could send something right into the heart of a developing tornado? Maybe something small, nimble, and packed with sensors? That's the mission behind the OTUS Project. Using cutting-edge drone technology, this team is pushing the boundaries of what we can safely and accurately observe from inside tornadic storms. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by members of the OTUS Project to talk about how UAVs are changing the way we study tornadoes, what it's like to deploy them in the field, and how this data could lead to better forecasts and ultimately, save lives.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Otus Project01:37 Personal Journeys into Meteorology06:12 Understanding Tornadoes: The Need for Data10:17 Drone Technology in Tornado Research14:59 A Day in the Life of a Tornado Chase19:39 Challenges and Risks in the Field21:32 First Experiences Inside a Tornado24:50 Collaborations and Data Sharing26:34 Measuring Wind Inside Tornadoes30:19 Choosing Storms and Navigating Obstacles32:12 Regulatory Hurdles and Networking34:17 Future Aspirations for the Otus ProjectSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
