We've been working through 2 Timothy on Sunday evenings. Last week I preached from 2 Timothy 3:6-9. It's a passage–like many in the pastoral epistles–that deals with false teaching. Paul warns against the folly of false teaching (and against the folly of falling for it).Which leads to the question: what is false teaching and how do we spot it?Obviously, there is no foolproof scheme for identifying false teaching. Biblical discernment takes years of prayer, preaching, and practice. But there are certain questions that may be help us sift the good from the bad. Here are 15 discernment diagnostic questions I suggested to my congregation.10. Does it promote an unmediated approach to spirituality? Mysticism, in its technical sense, can be defined as an approach to God apart from mediation. False spirituality tries to foster intimacy with God that does not go through the mediated revelation of Scripture and does not lead one to the mediation of Christ on the cross.11. Does the false teaching traffic in under-defined terms and slogans? Liberalism starts with an inattention to words. It is the triumph of orthodoxy to be careful with language.12. Does the teaching neglect the need for repentance? Beware the feel good invitation for everyone to come to the wide open arms. The coming of the Kingdom is not good news for sinners. It is good news for sinners who repent.13. Does the false teaching or teacher seem obsessed about one person, one doctrine, or one idea? An unsolicited exposé running into the hundreds of pages likely reveals more about the author than the subject.14. Does it result in an unbalanced presentation of the truth? True Christianity walks the tight rope between complementary biblical truths—truth and grace, Christ as God and man, salvation by faith alone and the necessity of the obedience of the Christian. It was usually the heretics who were guilty of resolving biblical tensions in ways that were too neat and tidy.15. Does the teaching fit with the Bible's story line of sin and salvation? How can a holy God dwell in the midst of an unholy people? If the teaching doesn't make sense as a plot line in that story, I'm suspicious.Mature Christians do not cast a critical eye on everyone and everything a hair's breadth different from them. But they are discerning, and they are careful. Guard your heart. Guard your home. Guard the good deposit.For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

It purported to lead the initiate into the realm of secret knowledge. This is what makes me nervous about Masons, Mormons, and even many fraternities and sororities. Unless national security is involved, be wary of groups that are held together by tightly held secrets. Books with “secret” in the title are usually suspect too (Lesslie Newbigin's The Open Secret being the exception that proves the rule).8. Does it rely on a cartoon view of God? False teaching tends to cast God as either as a autocratic strongman or a friendly face passing out beads at Woodstock? By contrast, the God of the Bible shines forth with (to use Jonathan Edwards' phrase) a host of diverse excellencies.9. Does the teaching use big themes to negate specific verses? We should always interpret Scripture with Scripture, but we must not allow amorphous themes like love or justice or grace to flatten the contours of Scripture.For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

Does it involve prophetic words? Christians may define prophecy differently. I'm not thinking here of a word fitly spoken, or powerful preaching, or wise counsel. I'm talking about “the Lord told me” sort of communication that tell other people what to do and cannot be tested or sifted according to Scripture.For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

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.

Most of us dread the dentist—awkward chairs, painful pokes, rushed cleanings.

Welcome to the 19th episode of the 2025 season! Nicolle Ritchie, MSU Extension Field Crops Educator, will host Dr. Sarah Hughson, Insect/Arthropod Diagnostician with the MSU Plant and Pest Diagnostics, will discuss  .  Also, a weather update from Dr. Jeff Andresen . To learn more and register for the live event, check out the MSUE Virtual Breakfast page.

This podcast is brought to you by Lilly, member of the SNMMI Value Initiative Industry Alliance. Hosts Anupa Arora, MD and Anthony “Nino” Sireci, MD discuss a New Era in Alzheimer Diagnostics. This episode takes a focused look at high-impact topics shaping the future of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, designed specifically for professionals driving value in the field. 

Dr. Ifedayo Adetifa is a pediatrician and tuberculosis expert who led the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control during the Covid-19 pandemic. A year ago, he became the CEO of FIND, the global alliance for diagnostics, a product development partnership based in Geneva. A major innovation gap was FIND's initial focus – and remains a pressing priority. And over time, the access gap has become much more conspicuous and urgent. A 2021 Lancet Commission and recent update have proven highly valuable. The sudden decline in U.S. financing is having impact, directly and indirectly, upon FIND, but its diversification of funders has provided a cushion. FIND engages directly with over 100 US-based businesses. AI provides an opportunity for closing gaps in diagnosis, when combined with digital tools. However, there is a serious risk of low-income countries being left behind in the AI transformation. And a risk that diagnostics fall off the priority list.

Send us a textThis conversation is the fourth and final segment of SurfingMASH's April discussion of drug development in memory of Stephen A. Harrison. In addition to co-hosts Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green, panelists include hepatologist and key opinion leader Sven Francque. The discussion focuses on PPARs, genetic medicines, and other emerging drug classes while considering the idea that drug therapies can have an impact on the liver independent of their effect on fibrosis regression. It begins with Sven  discussing his experience as a lead investigator in clinical trials for the pan-PPAR agonist lanifibranor, whose Phase 3 trial is now fully recruited. Sven states that in addition to fibrosis regression, lanifibranor is likely to exhibit other pleiotropic effects, and notes that vascular changes start early in the fibrotic progression process. After Sven elaborates on these effects, Louise asks about the SCD-1 agent Aramchol. This leads to a discussion about the idea that over time, therapy will probably come to incorporate two separate modes of action, with one to treat the metabolic dysfunction and the other to treat specific effects in the liver or, as Jörn puts it, "combining weight-neutral and weight-reducing drugs." This evolves into a discussion of what Louise terms "personal-centric" medicine, or what patient advocate Mike Betel has previously described on SurfingMASH as "tailored medicine."The rest of the conversation predominantly lists other classes of drugs, "safe" mitochondrial uncouplers, genetic medicines, and others. Roger inquires about the FASN inhibitors, which are entering Phase 3 clinical trials. Jörn says that the data appears positive and unique. That said, he and Sven agree we need more data.Louise sounds the closing note for this roundtable by discussing our co-founder, Stephen Harrison, and the energy and enthusiasm he brought to the entire drug development process. The group agrees that Stephen's impact continues to be felt through the MASLD community, even as he is missed by us all.

In this expansive episode, Aneil Mallavarapu delivers a masterclass on what TechBio is really about and why most investors and founders are still getting it wrong. We dig into the communication gap between technical genius and venture capital, the brutal economics of research tools, the data dilemmas in wet AI, and why the future belongs to founders who can both build deep and speak simply.Aneil shares hard truths about platform strategy, revenue (yes, revenue), and the myth of “cool diagnostics” inside a broken healthcare system. But this isn't just about critique. It's a hopeful, strategic call for a new generation of purposeful companies, built not only for returns but for impact. If you're working at the intersection of biology, tech, and meaning, this is the one to listen to.

In this episode, Dr. Rachel welcomes Dr. Karen Davidson, a trailblazer in airway diagnostics and a disruptor in the world of nasal health. Dr. Karen takes us through her unconventional 34-year journey,from critical care flight nurse to patented inventor and airway educator,revealing how we've misunderstood nasal function for decades.Together, they unravel the science behind nasal resistance, debunk myths about CPAP therapy, and dive into why nasal function,not volume determines breathing quality. Dr. Karen shares how she pioneered the Daphne Score and the concept of pseudo-UARS, offering a data-driven approach to understanding airflow, pressure, and airway compensation.We also explore the systemic effects of nasal resistance,from heart rate variability in athletes to sleep-disordered breathing in children misdiagnosed with ADHD. With bold insights and a refreshing dose of cynicism, Dr. Karen challenges the current medical system and encourages collaboration across specialties to improve patient care.Highlights:Dr. Karen's journey from nurse to airway innovator and educatorWhy nasal function, not just nasal breathing mattersHow nasal resistance affects posture, speech, sleep, and heart rateThe creation and science behind the Daphne Score and airway AIUnderstanding pseudo-UARS and overexpansion risks in orthodonticsCPAP intolerance and why it often fails due to undiagnosed nasal resistanceThe flawed "disease management" model in healthcareWhy sleep doesn't disorder breathing, breathing disorders sleepNasal function as a key factor in ADHD misdiagnosis and childhood airway issuesFunctional diagnostics: From facial analysis to RhinoManometryThe neurological connection between nasal resistance and tongue functionThe importance of individualized treatment based on nasal flow and pressureThe emerging International Society of Airway Function Diagnostics & TherapeuticsAbout the Guest:Dr. Karen Fields-Lever is a critical care flight nurse, airway diagnostics expert, and creator of the patented Daphne Score software used to analyze nasal resistance and flow. With over 8,000 cases of ENT experience, she brings a rare blend of clinical and industry insight to breathing science.

On this episode of Longevity by Design, Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Karl Pfleger, aging biotechnology investor and creator of AgingBiotech.info, to dissect the rapidly evolving field of aging therapeutics. Karl breaks down the sector into two main categories: interventions that slow aging rates versus rejuvenation strategies that repair accumulated damage.Karl highlights the most promising areas in his investment portfolio, including senolytics for clearing senescent cells and epigenetic reprogramming technologies. He explains why current aging clocks aren't ready for clinical use and discusses the limitations of popular interventions like GLP-1 drugs and fasting protocols. The conversation reveals that 14 Phase 3 clinical trials are currently testing core aging therapeutics.The discussion covers recent FDA approvals for ATTR treatments and stem cell therapies, signaling the field's maturation. Karl emphasizes that meaningful life extension requires a "divide and conquer" strategy, targeting multiple aging mechanisms simultaneously rather than relying on single interventions. Despite exciting therapeutic developments, he maintains that optimizing diet, exercise, and sleep remains the most impactful strategy for extending healthspan today.Guest-at-a-Glance

00:00:00 - Surf's Up: Season 6 Episode 7Host Roger Green explains our recent vacation from publishing episodes, assures the audience that the podcast will continue weekly for months and years ahead, and discusses the episode's sections, covering the Global Think-Tank on Steatotic Liver Disease (SLD), the EASL patient screening activity and the increasing role of NITs in drug development. While introducing roundtable guests, he introduces first-time Surfer Dr. Kristina Curtis of the UK-based consultancy, Applied Behaviour Change.00:09:11 - Roundtable I: From the Global Think-Tank on SLDThis discussion starts with co-host Jörn Schattenberg discussing the history and evolution of the first four Global Think-Tanks as the focus shifts from educating medical professionals about liver disease to incorporating a broader group of stakeholders, including politicians and non-hepatologist MDs, to break down siloes and create wider awareness. Co-host Louise Campbell describes the breadth of stakeholders necessary to address this pandemic fully. She explains how her work with transient elastography and the MyLife365.me app constitutes a form of behavioral therapy. Jörn describes the test as a diagnostic and comments that the treatment is what health professionals do with the results. Kristina says that the behavioral change that results comes from well-delivered feedback. She describes "hybrid interventions, digital interventions with a human in the loop." Louise discusses results from the EASL late-breaker that support these findings and goes on to discuss the role AI can play in medical practices.00:23:50 - Newsmaker: Jose Willemse, Dutch Liver Patients Association This discussion covers two primary topics: (1) the Amsterdam screening activity that took place during EASL. Jose describes the phenomenal level of interest in this activity, in which hepatologists and APPs scanned 400 people per day for MASLD and MASH. Boosted by significant mass publicity in Amsterdam, the number of people seeking screening exceeded the 400/day quota, with some arriving in line hours before the scheduled start time and others traveling for hours to reach the site. Jose believes that with adequate publicity, efforts like these could be replicated around the world, but that the healthcare system lacks the necessary resources to do so. In terms of patient care, Jose emphasized the importance of sensitive yet frank conversations and helping patients appreciate the successes they are achieving. 00:53:45 - Roundtable II: NITs Increasing Role in Drug Development Sven Francque and Naim Alhouri joined Louise, Jörn and Roger for this roundtable, although Naim had dropped off by this time. The conversation starts with Louise noting that the goal of therapy is not simply to treat MASLD, but to achieve overall metabolic health, of which MASLD is a key component. Jörn states that we are on the path toward conducting clinical trials entirely with NITs as disease markers, which he describes as a "game changer" and Louise terms "exciting." She asks whether NITs can serve as the only trial surrogate. Jörn and Sven agree that we are not at that point yet, but we are headed in that direction. Jörn asserts that "nothing" will replace outcomes as the prerequisite for full approval and mentions the VCTE study group as demonstrating that a large NIT-based trial can prove effects on disease. Louise cautions that operator competency is a key, if overlooked, criterion for this kind of activity. Sven concurs and states that repeat measures are crucial in managing disease. Jörn notes that practices can serve as centers of care, but will need support from nutritionists and other professionals. 01:06:08 - Business ReportRoger highlights special September programming, indicates that new sponsors are on the way, and asks how many listeners find SurfingMASH on YouTube.

Doug Ryan, CEO of Arineta, describes the advancements in cardiac CT imaging technology and how their ultra-fast scanning is revealing more accurate and higher-quality imaging of the heart. Using wide-area coverage and deep learning image reconstruction, the Arineta platform can detect arterial occlusions and coronary plaque buildup, which is a significant risk factor for sudden cardiac events and is often missed when relying solely on calcium scoring. The development of a mobile cardiac CT scanning unit is improving access to this technology, particularly in rural and underserved areas. Doig explains, "What you're trying to do is to stop the most complex organ inside the human body. The human heart translates, rotates, and beats somewhere between 60 and 100 beats per minute. So you really need advanced CT technology that comprises a great many areas, but the most important things are coverage speed and the ability to reconstruct it very quickly." "You're using advanced algorithms like our DLIR, our deep learning image reconstruction, which focuses on high-contrast, high-spatial, low-noise reconstructions that can then be put into what we call a multiplanar format. So you can look at these coronary arteries from all angles and do the diagnostic." "So it's actually a combination of several things. Ultra FAST is, of course, very important because you are literally trying to stop a bird mid-flight and get an accurate picture of it, but it's also the ability to encompass and see the entire heart in a single rotation. So, one of the secrets of the SpotLight and SpotLight Duo is both the ultra-fast rotation and the wide area coverage that we get with our detector system." #Arineta #CTImaging #CardiovascularDiagnostics #Cardiology #DeepLearningImageReconstruction   Arineta.com Download the transcript here

Anish Agarwal and Raj Agrawal, co-founders of Traversal, are transforming how enterprises handle critical system failures. Their AI agents can perform root cause analysis in 2-4 minutes instead of the hours typically spent by teams of engineers scrambling in Slack channels. Drawing from their academic research in causal inference and gene regulatory networks, they've built agents that systematically traverse complex dependency maps to identify the smoking gun logs and problematic code changes. As AI-generated code becomes more prevalent, Traversal addresses a growing challenge: debugging systems where humans didn't write the original code, making AI-powered troubleshooting essential for maintaining reliable software at scale.

Bob Roda, President and CEO of HemoSonics, highlights the current blood shortage and the challenges of patient blood management to minimize the need for transfusions. The HemoSonics Quanta Analyzer technology utilizes ultrasound to measure blood viscosity, providing real-time information on the patient's coagulation status and enabling clinicians to make more informed decisions about blood product administration. This approach can be applied in the operating room, emergency rooms, and hospital laboratories to improve patient outcomes and yield cost savings for the healthcare system.  Bob explains, "As a company, we are very centered and focused on helping to shape human healthcare moving forward. Specifically, as it relates to coagulation management, we have a technology that is about five years old, and in layman's terms, it helps to identify what is going on with your blood in terms of coagulation, intraoperatively, and in near real-time. So what does that mean? It means that it is an aid for clinicians as they're making determinations for their patients as to what to do next in terms of managing their bleeding situations."   "Think about patient blood management as a patient-centered, systematic, and evidence-based approach to improving patient outcomes simply by managing and preserving a patient's own blood while promoting safety and ultimately the empowerment of the patient. So what does that mean? What it means is that there is a multifaceted approach in terms of any surgical intervention, where ultimately your own blood, the patient's own blood, is really what's best for them. And so to the extent that you can limit or prevent or get ahead of the need for transfusion, that's ultimately to the benefit of the patient and to the benefit of the healthcare system from an economic perspective." #HemoSonics #Hemostasis #BloodManagement #Quantra #BleedingManagement #MedTech #HealthcareInnovation hemosonics.com Listen to the podcast here

Dev Mittar, Ph.D., Scientific Director of the ASM Health Scientific Unit discusses the use of metagenomic next generation sequencing to develop agnostic diagnostic technology, giving scientists and clinicians alike, a tool to diagnose any infectious disease with one single test. He also discusses how the ASM Health Unit is empowering scientists and leveraging microbial science innovations to address critical global health challenges and improve lives worldwide. Ashley's Biggest Takeaways The Division of Research, Innovation and Ventures is a small entrepreneurial arm of BARDA that takes on early-stage projects with high potential of turning into medical countermeasures. Prior to his role as Scientific Director for ASM Health, Mittar worked as a health scientist and program officer at DRIVe, where he focused on advancing high-impact science. He is particularly passionate about his work to develop agnostic diagnostics—a single test that uses metagenomic next generation sequencing to identify any pathogen from 1 clinical sample. Mittar discusses applications for this technology in surveillance (pandemic preparedness), variant detection, AMR and clinical settings (diagnosing complicated infections where etiology is not clearly defined). He also shares how a recent bout with illness emphasized the value and potential of this technology to save money, time, pain and suffering of the patient. Agnostic diagnostics can also help prevent the overuse/misuse of antibiotics, which are key factors in the spread of antimicrobial resistance. Furthermore, when this technology is coupled with the use of metatranscriptomics, it can provide information about the patient's immune profile that can be helpful in developing personalized treatment strategies, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach. ASM is organizing around 3 scientific units, ASM Health, ASM Mechanism Discovery and ASM Applied and Environmental Microbiology. These units will empower researchers and scientists to use science make a difference in the world and provide a forum for them to come together to shape the future of the field.
