How can you help clinical and academic leaders feel more prepared and more supported to create organizational change and lead in times of uncertainty? We will review our proprietary research-based 5-stage Strategic Leadership Pathway model and the results from a program evaluation study of this model conducted at Duke University and presented at the Pediatric Academic Societies Meeting.We'll explore questions such as:1. What might be the impetus for starting a group coaching program within academic healthcare - what was the need identified and why group coaching?2. What can you expect to gain from such a program and what are the implications?3. What impact could this kind of program potentially serve in highly complex academic medicine and healthcare environments in supporting leaders in those environments. And we'll also celebrate 50 episodes and 1 year of doing this radio show!***ABOUT OUR GUESTS:Dr. Mara Becker, MD, MSCE, is a physician-scientist and Vice Dean for Faculty of Duke University School of Medicine's Office of Faculty.

If you're an ASOPRS Member, Surgeon or Trainee and are interesting in hosting a podcast episode, please submit your idea by visiting: asoprs.memberclicks.net/podcast Dr. Evan Kalin-Hajdu - Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology at the University of Montreal. Dr. Kalin-Hajdu is the host of the current "Oculofacial Podcast Journal Club". Dr. Bryan J. Winn - Professor of Ophthalmology and Vice Chair and Division Director for Oculofacial Plastic Surgery at UCSF. He also serves as the Chief of Ophthalmology at the San Francisco VA Healthcare System. Dr. Davin Ashraf - Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). Dr. Kyle J. Godfrey - Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology at Weill Cornell Medicine and the New York Presbyterian Hospital. He is also the Director of the Ophthalmology Residency Program and a member of the Departments of Ophthalmology and Neurological Surgery. Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of the Oculofacial Podcast Journal Club, distinguished host Dr. Evan Kalin-Hajdu from the University of Montreal is joined by renowned experts Dr. Bryan J. Winn, Dr. Davin Ashraf, and Dr. Kyle J. Godfrey to discuss three key articles from the May-June 2024 issue of the Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (OPRS) journal. The discussion delves into short-term versus long-term results of teprotumumab, a more custom management of patients with thyroid eye diseases, as well as rapidly popular transorbital surgery. The episode begins with Dr. Bryan J. Winn summarizing an article on teprotumumab for recalcitrant thyroid eye disease. The panelists then discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the paper, highlighting the medication's short-term effectiveness but raising concerns about its long-term durability. Following this, Dr. Davin Ashraf provides insights into a study that compared teprotumumab versus orbital decompression for thyroid eye disease, highlighting the likely additive effects of these combined treatments, but also raising compelling points about regression of proptosis that was only observed in the teprotumumab group. Dr. Kyle J. Godfrey then wraps up with an in-depth look at a novel transorbital endoscopic approach to the foramen rotundum for infraorbital nerve stripping, emphasizing the technique's potential utility, risks, and anatomical considerations. The participants then discussed the growing popularity of transorbital surgery from the standpoint of oculofacial plastic surgeons. Key Takeaways: Teprotumumab's Effectiveness: Teprotumumab shows significant short-term efficacy in reducing proptosis and clinical activity scores in recalcitrant thyroid eye disease, but data on long-term durability remains unknown in that cohort. Teprotumumab versus decompression: Combining teprotumumab with orbital decompression may provide additive benefits for proptosis reduction. Surgical decompression provides the greatest proptosis reduction and does not appear to wane in time. However, patients treated solely with teprotumumab appear to start regressing within months of therapy. Evolving Treatment Protocols: The participants theorize a potential shift in managing thyroid eye disease, gradually incorporating a more evidence-based approach with an effective short-term modulator, like teprotumumab, followed by a long-term disease modifier, like tocilizumab or radiation therapy. Advanced Surgical Techniques: Introducing a transorbital endoscopic approach for infraorbital nerve stripping could expand the surgical arsenal for managing complex orbital and perineural pathologies.

The uses and abuses of ChatGBT artificial intelligence language model have taken the collective imagination by storm. Apocalyptic predictions of the singularity, when technology becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, frighten us as we imagine a future where human intelligence is irrelevant. Prof. Michael Littman joins us to contextualize the advancement of artificial intelligence and debunk the paranoid rhetoric littering the public discourse. Michael has made groundbreaking research contributions enabling machines to learn from their experiences, assess the environment, make decisions, and improve their actions over time in real-world applications. His later work expanded into multi-agent systems, investigating how several AI entities can learn to cooperate, compete, or coexist in shared environments. Picture a team of robots in a factory, each with different tasks. The challenge here isn't just for each robot to do its job effectively but also to collaborate with the others, avoid collisions, and adapt to changes in real time. Emerging concepts of 'intelligence' in artificial intelligence aren't about building machines that can perform tasks faster and more accurately than humans; it is about building machines that can think, learn, and adapt - machines that aren't just tools but collaborative partners. If we examine our resistance to this emerging technology, we might catch glimpses of our unconscious fear of regression and dependency. Observation suggests most people fall into one of two groups, those who idealize a world where they are free of demands and another where they are enslaved by superiors. When we realize the fear or fantasy of regression is not the likely outcome of artificial intelligence, we are free to imagine the innumerable creative applications of the new technology and the machines that use it. MICHAEL L. LITTMAN, PhD Michael L. Littman is University Professor of Computer Science at Brown University, where he studies machine learning and decision-making under uncertainty. He has earned multiple university-level awards for teaching and his research has been recognized with three best-paper awards and three influential paper awards. Littman is a Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence and the Association for Computing Machinery.
