Imagine we could have a digital version of our entire body which could help us, and our doctors, decide what life style is good for us, predict which diseases we might get, and how to best treat them? In short, what if we could all have our very own digital twin? The idea isn't quite as sci-fi as it sounds. A gigantic scientific effort called the Physiome Project is about piecing together a mathematical description of the entire physiology of the human body. Once this has been achieved to a sufficient level digital twins will be a spin-off. In this podcast we revisit an interview we did back in 2019 with Steven Niederer, who was then Professor of Biomedical Engineering at King's College London but has since moved to a new position at Imperial College London as Chair of Biomedical Engineering. Niederer told us about the physiome project, about how the fitbits many of us own are a very first step towards a digital twin, and about how you can model individual human organs such as the heart. We also challenge ourselves to explain differential equations in one minute. You can find out more about maths and medicine, differential equations and mathematical modelling on Plus. We met Niederer in 2019 when he helped to organise a research programme at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Cambridge.

In this Scope Forward conversation, Praveen Suthrum speaks with Leo Grady, founder and CEO of Jona. Leo's background sits at the intersection of healthcare AI and microbiome science — a rare combination that's defining the future of gut health diagnostics.Their discussion explores why the microbiome is not a distant promise but clinically actionable today. They dig into why AI isn't just a tool but a necessity to interpret the complex, rapidly expanding world of microbiome research. Leo breaks down how Jona's platform creates a “digital twin” of the gut microbiome, simulating evidence-based interventions rather than offering general advice.Praveen and Leo also dive into why most existing microbiome companies miss the mark — often selling supplements rather than driving real clinical change — and how Jona was built to fill that gap with science at its core. The conversation closes with a look at why gastroenterology must — and is beginning to — take the lead in bringing microbiome research into everyday practice.Top Insights from the Conversation:02:27 - The Microbiome Is Clinically Actionable — TodayThousands of studies already link gut flora to chronic disease. Leo challenges the belief that it's “too early” — arguing there's sufficient evidence to act now, not a decade later.03:57 - AI Is the Only Way to Navigate the ComplexityWith 2,000+ new studies published monthly, no human can keep pace. Jona's custom AI filters and interprets this tidal wave of research, making personal, evidence-based recommendations possible.05:03 - Jona Builds a Digital Twin of the GutJona sequences an individual's microbiome and models how interventions — diet, supplements, medications — would alter it, based on interventional studies. It's a simulation grounded in real, published science.10:23 - Most Microbiome Startups Fall ShortMany existing companies sell the promise of gut health, but without scientific rigor. Jona was founded because Leo saw an opportunity to ground microbiome testing in solid evidence, especially for serious GI conditions.15:45 - Business Model: AI-Powered Microbiome InsightsJona sells precision gut tests, using AI to match microbiome data with clinical research—delivering evidence-based insights, not supplements.22:19- Clinical Use of Microbiome Testing Must Be Evidence-BasedJona's recommendations — whether to change diet or introduce a probiotic — are directly tied to published research, with confidence scores that help clinicians weigh the strength of evidence.26:43 - Jona's AI as a Domain-Specific Language ModelJona's AI acts like a specialized LLM trained on microbiome literature—matching patient data to published studies and simulating outcomes. It doesn't just read research; it reasons with it.37:05- Gastroenterology Must Lead the Way — and It IsWhile the microbiome has often been developed outside of GI, Praveen and Leo highlight how the field is shifting. GI physicians, with leaders like Dr. Lawrence Kosinski, are increasingly stepping up to shape the future of microbiome diagnostics and therapeutics.#digitalhealth #gastroenterology #thescopeforwardshow #nextservices #gi #future #ai #theshift #microbiome

In this concluding episode of our deep dive into miniaturized perfusion systems, we tackle the most challenging aspect: implementing meaningful process analytical technology (PAT) at microscale while keeping costs realistic for high-throughput applications.Tom Valentin, group leader at CSEM for Automated Sample Handling, continues sharing CSEM's pioneering work in automated sample handling, revealing both the breakthrough opportunities and stubborn technical barriers that define the current state of small-scale perfusion development.Critical insights you'll gain from this episode:The PAT miniaturization challenge is about more than size: While optical density sensors work reasonably well for microbial cultures, mammalian cell applications demand more sophisticated solutions. Tom explains why viable cell density remains the "holy grail"—and how promising technologies from companies like IMEC and Inspec are pushing the boundaries, though cost-effective 96-well implementation remains elusiveSmart compromises can unlock practical solutions: Tom reveals why the industry may need to accept hybrid approaches—real-time pH and DO monitoring combined with once-daily viable cell density sampling. He also explains the unique challenges of sensor positioning in shaking deep-well plates where liquid dynamics create measurement complexitiesPartnership models that actually work for biotech innovation: Beyond the technical discussion, Tom outlines CSEM's proven collaboration approaches, including how Innoswiss funding can provide 50% cost reduction for development projects and why their 70% proposal success rate makes them an attractive R&D partner for both startups and established pharma companiesDiscover how bioprocessing is evolving - from high-throughput screening to digital twins and continuous manufacturing- in these expert-led episodes.Episode 155: From Process Bottlenecks to Seamless Production: How Continuous Bioprocessing Changes EverythingEpisodes 153-154: The Future of Bioprocessing: Industry 4.0, Digital Twins, and Continuous Manufacturing Strategies with Tiago MatosEpisodes 85-86: Bioprocess 4.0: Integrated Continuous Biomanufacturing with Massimo MorbidelliEpisodes 73-74: Bead-Based Assays: The Power of High-Throughput Screening with Sebastian GiehringConnect with Tom Valentin:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/tom-valentin-5bb9091bWebsite: www.csem.ch/enEmail: thomas.valentin@csem.chNext step:Book a free consultation to help you get started on any questions you may have about bioprocessing analytics: https://bruehlmann-consulting.com/callDevelop bioprocessing technologies better, faster, at a fraction of the cost with our 1:1 Strategy Call: The quickest and easiest way to excel biotech technology development.

In this episode of 21st Century Water, we sit down with Eric Johnson, Executive Director of the Fox River Water Reclamation District (FRWRD), to unpack a unique leadership journey and explore a forward-thinking approach to water management. Eric's path to running a regional wastewater agency is anything but conventional. Starting in public service at age 19 while in college, he transitioned from political roles to township supervisor, then city manager, and eventually into the water sector. What stands out is how he's brought a legal and administrative mindset into a highly technical domain, focusing on assembling expert teams rather than becoming the technical expert himself.We dive into the scale and complexity of FRWRD's operations—three plants serving over 200,000 residents across multiple counties, with a $24 million operating budget and up to $20 million in annual capital projects. Eric walks us through a strategic pivot the agency is undergoing: its first-ever facility master plan. This includes initiatives like implementing a digital twin, improving asset management, and exploring plant consolidation to drive efficiency.We also talk about regionalization. Eric makes a strong case for consolidating smaller wastewater utilities into regional agencies to improve cost-effectiveness, compliance, and service quality. He cites examples from his own district and explains the political and institutional barriers to broader adoption, highlighting the need for leadership willing to set aside control for the greater good of the community.Financially, FRWRD recently completed a rate study, aiming to keep costs fair and predictable while balancing regulatory pressures and infrastructure needs. Eric shares how the utility is pursuing alternative revenue streams, including water reuse and solar energy, to reduce the financial burden on ratepayers. He also emphasizes the importance of public communication, using scale, continuity, visibility, and plain language to help people understand the unseen but essential role wastewater infrastructure plays.Operationally, FRWRD faces challenges with aging infrastructure, rising costs, and a tightening labor market. Eric outlines efforts to modernize the organization—from equipping staff with better technology to launching workforce development partnerships and emphasizing leadership training. His passion for building high-performing, collaborative teams is clear, and he sees talent development as central to his long-term vision.Eric closes with reflections on legacy. For him, success means advancing regionalization, fostering innovation, and creating an environment where employees thrive—even if that means they eventually move on to bigger roles. He hopes FRWRD becomes known as a forward-thinking, mid-sized agency that others look to for leadership, innovation, and talent.More:Fox River Water Reclamation District: https://www.frwrd.com/ Aquasight Website: https://aquasight.io/

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 5-22-2025: Dr. Dawn explores groundbreaking cancer research using high-throughput "digital twin" analysis to reverse colon cancer cells back to normal states, identifying three master molecular switches that can induce normal cell differentiation without killing the cancer cells, thus avoiding traditional chemotherapy side effects. She discusses remarkable results from Memorial Sloan Kettering showing 80% of patients with mismatch repair deficient tumors, including all 49 rectal cancer patients, saw complete tumor disappearance after six months of dostarlimab immunotherapy, with no recurrence at five years and minimal side effects. The program covers innovative CRISPR applications, including targeting previously "undruggable" cancer mutations like KRAS and BRAF by selectively degrading mutant RNA messages while preserving healthy genes, offering unprecedented precision in cancer treatment. Dr. Dawn explains a clever immunotherapy approach that disguises tumors as pig organs using Newcastle disease virus carrying alpha-gal enzyme, tricking the immune system into mounting fierce attacks against cancer cells, showing promising results in both monkey and human trials. She describes fascinating research using cryoshocked tumor cells as Trojan horses, where liquid nitrogen-treated cancer cells carrying CRISPR gene editing tools directly seek out tumors, offering superior targeting compared to injecting CRISPR. The show reveals how cancers create protective acid walls around themselves to repel immune cells, with individual cancer cells pumping lactic acid away from the tumor center to form pH 5.3 barriers that kill attacking CD8 T cells within hours. Dr. Dawn discusses breakthrough mRNA cancer vaccines for glioblastoma using patients' own tumor cells, showing rapid immune system activation within 48 hours and extending survival in both dogs and humans with this aggressive brain cancer. She explores the "flower code" mechanism where cancer cells gaslight healthy cells through epigenetic manipulation, expressing dominant "flower win" codes to overpower normal cells expressing "flower lose" codes in biological turf wars. The program addresses systemic problems in cancer classification, explaining how organ-based categorization delays access to effective treatments, with patients waiting years for drugs that could help based on molecular profiles rather than tumor location. Dr. Dawn concludes by highlighting medical discrimination against people with Duffy null phenotype, primarily affecting African Americans, whose naturally lower neutrophil counts lead to reduced chemotherapy doses and excluded clinical trial participation despite no increased infection risk.

The concept of “Smart Cities” is here!

Andrew Harris with system integrator ACS explains how cybersecurity fits in with equipment safety as part of a risk assessment, and the use of digital twin tech and safety PLCs as part of the safety risk assessment process.

This week on the show: Are we ready to create digital models of the human brain? Last month, Stanford researcher Andreas Tolias and colleagues created a "digital twin" of the mouse visual cortex. The researchers used the same foundation model approach that powers ChatGPT, but instead of training the model on text, the team trained in on brain activity recorded while mice watched action movies. The result? A digital model that can predict how neurons would respond to entirely new visual inputs. This landmark study is a preview of the unprecedented research possibilities made possible by foundation models of the brain—models which replicate the fundamental algorithms of brain activity, but can be studied with complete control and replicated across hundreds of laboratories.But it raises a profound question: Are we ready to create digital models of the human brain? This week we talk with Wu Tsai Neuro Faculty Scholar Dan Yamins, who has been exploring just this question with a broad range of Stanford colleagues and collaborators. We talk about what such human brain simulations might look like, how they would work, and what they might teach us about the fundamental algorithms of perception and cognition.Learn moreAI models of the brain could serve as 'digital twins' in research (Stanford Medicine, 2025)An Advance in Brain Research That Was Once Considered Impossible (New York Times, 2025)The co-evolution of neuroscience and AI (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2024)Neuroscientists use AI to simulate how the brain makes sense of the visual world (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2024)How Artificial Neural Networks Help Us Understand Neural Networks in the Human Brain (Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI), 2021)Related researchA Task-Optimized Neural Network Replicates Human Auditory Behavior...
