Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we explore a series of groundbreaking advancements and strategic collaborations that promise to transform drug development and patient care.In the autoimmune space, Boehringer Ingelheim has made a significant move by securing a $570 million agreement with CDR-Life. This deal centers on a trispecific antibody, a novel therapeutic approach that targets multiple pathways simultaneously, potentially revolutionizing treatments for autoimmune diseases. Boehringer's commitment to these cutting-edge modalities highlights their strategy to leverage novel technologies for more effective therapeutic solutions.Similarly, Celltrion has entered a $744 million collaboration with Kaigene, focusing on two preclinical autoimmune drugs. This partnership marks Celltrion's strategic shift from biosimilars to novel biologics, positioning the company at the forefront of biologic therapeutics. By investing in early-stage research, Celltrion aims to introduce transformative therapies for autoimmune conditions, showcasing the industry's willingness to bet on groundbreaking scientific advancements.In gene editing, Azalea Therapeutics is gaining attention with its focus on permanent genome editing using a dual-vector approach.

What is the book of Revelation really about? For ages, it has been the source of sensationalism, idolatry, confusion, and end-times predictions. But at its root, it is about the power and worship of the Lamb who was slain. Biblical scholar Michael J. Gorman joins Mark Labberton to explore how Christians can read the book of Revelation with wisdom, faith, and hope rather than fear or sensationalism. Drawing from his book Reading Revelation Responsibly: Uncivil Worship and Witness—Following the Lamb into the New Creation, Gorman offers a reorientation to Revelation's central vision: worshipping the Lamb, resisting idolatrous power, and embodying faithful discipleship in the world. Together they discuss Revelation's misuses in popular culture, its critique of empire and nationalism, and its invitation to follow the crucified and risen Christ into the new creation. Episode Highlights "The book of Revelation is about lamb power—not hyper-religious or political power. It's about absorbing rather than inflicting evil." "This book is for those who are confused by, afraid of, and or preoccupied with the book of Revelation." "We shouldn't look for predictions but for parallels and analogies." "Worship, discipleship, and new creation—that's where Revelation hangs its hat." "At its root, Christian nationalism is a form of idolatry." "The only way to come out of Babylon is to go back into Babylon with new values and new practices."

Gorman Michael J. Gorman is the Raymond E. Brown Professor of Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary & University in Baltimore, Maryland. A leading New Testament scholar, he is the author of numerous books on Pauline theology and Revelation, including Reading Revelation Responsibly, Cruciformity, and Participating in Christ. Gorman's teaching and writing emphasize Scripture as a call to cruciform discipleship, faithful worship, and the hope of new creation. Show Notes Introducing Reading Revelation Responsibly "This book is for those who are confused by, afraid of, and or preoccupied with the Book of Revelation." "Apocalypse" means revelation, not destruction. Emerging from twenty-five years of study and teaching, aimed at rescuing Revelation from misinterpretation or neglect Growing up amid 1970s end-times obsession—Hal Lindsey's The Late Great Planet Earth and fearful youth-group predictions of the world's end Fear of the book of Revelation until he studied it with Bruce Metzger at Princeton Seminary Why he wrote the book: for people who have been scared or confused by Revelation's misuse Interpretation and misreading the book of Revelation Early questions: Does Revelation predict particular events or people? No predictions, but symbolic speaking into every age "Our task is not to find predictions but to discern parallels and analogies." Warning against mapping Revelation onto modern crises or personalities "When those predictions fail, the book gets sidelined or scoffed at." Keep one foot in the first-century context and one in the present Worship and discipleship The heart of Revelation is worship. "This is a book about worship—and about the object of our worship." Explaining the subtitle: Uncivil Worship and Witness—Following the Lamb into the New Creation "Uncivil worship" contrasts with "civil religion"—worship that refuses to idolize political power Influence from Eugene Peterson's Reverse Thunder and his own teaching at St. Mary's, where Peterson once taught Revelation Worship leads to discipleship: "Those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes." True discipleship mirrors the Lamb's humility and non-violence. The lamb and the meaning of power Interpreting Revelation's vision of the slain and standing Lamb as the key to understanding divine power "The crucified Messiah is the risen Lord—but he remains the crucified one." The Lamb appears twenty-eight times, a symbol of universality and completeness. "Revelation is about lamb power—absorbing rather than inflicting evil." Discipleship is cruciform: following the Lamb's way of self-giving love. The unholy trinity and the danger of idolatry Chapters 12–13 depict the dragon and two beasts—the "unholy trinity" of satanic, imperial, and religious power. "Power gone amok": political, military, and spiritual domination that mimic divinity How true worship resists empire and exposes idolatry Warning against reading these beasts as predictions of the UN or the pope; rather, they reveal recurring alliances of religion and politics "At its root, Christian nationalism is idolatry." When political identity eclipses discipleship, "political power always wins, and faith loses." Faith, politics, and worship today Christian nationalism as a modern form of "civil religion," conflating patriotism with divine will "It's only Christian in name—it lacks Christian substance." Idolatry is not limited to one side: "It permeates the left, the right, and probably the centre." Labberton agrees: false worship is endemic wherever self-interest and fear shape our loves. Both stress that Revelation calls the church to worship the Lamb, not the state. "Revelation critiques all human systems of false worship." Revelation's goal: Not destruction, but new creation "Destruction is penultimate—cleansing the way for renewal." Believers already live as citizens of that new creation. "The only way to come out of Babylon is to go back into Babylon with new values and new practices." Communal, not merely individual, discipleship: "Revelation is written to churches, not just believers." Reinterpreting Revelation 3:20: Jesus knocking isn't an altar call to unbelievers but Christ seeking re-entry into his own church. "Jesus always wants to come back in." Living revelation today Spirituality of hope, not fear or withdrawal "Reading Revelation responsibly means engaging the world through worship and witness." How true worship is dangerous because it transforms our allegiance. "Following the Lamb into the new creation is the church's act of resistance." Conclusion: "Worthy is the Lamb."

How is the weakening dollar affecting your portfolio? The world's reserve currency fell sharply in the first half of 2025, making it a bruising year. It has recovered some but still sits below where it started the year. Other currencies like the euro, Japanese yen, and Mexican peso look stronger against the greenback. Several factors could influence whether the dollar roars back or recedes. Why should the dollar's performance matter for everyday investors like you? Morningstar Indexes strategist Dan Lefkovitz explains why and what you can do to protect your portfolio from currency fluctuations.The bifurcation of the stock market is appearing to divide investors into two camps. There's a lot of optimism baked into share prices of firms seen as leaders in artificial intelligence, according to Dan Kemp, chief research and investment officer at Morningstar Investment Management Europe. The Market Brief author points to Tesla TSLA as a great example, since investors are ascribing significant value to the company's unproven, future products. Meanwhile, there's a lot of pessimism in parts of the market that are not involved in AI. Kemp reminds investors to look for undervalued opportunities in the unloved areas of the market.The US Dollar's Value Is Down—and These 3 Investments Are Way, Way UpOn this episode:What has been going on with the dollar? A lot of worried investors are likely asking the same question: How is the stock market going up in this macroeconomic environment? And why are bonds doing well?You have written about the implications for a declining dollar. The dollar and gold typically compete as safe haven assets. It looks like gold is winning this year. Why is that? International stocks are outperforming US stocks this year. How does currency play into this? Our colleague Morningstar Inc portfolio strategist Amy Arnott joined me on Investing Insights for the Oct. 24 episode. She said investors might be underweight in international stocks despite recent performance. What case would you make to convince folks to consider increasing their overseas exposure? Emerging-markets debt is another asset class winning thanks in part to the dollar. Why does Morningstar find this fixed-income segment attractive? What risks could threaten the dollar's dominance in the future?Why should everyday investors who are saving for retirement or other goals care about whether the dollar falls or rises? And how can they hedge their bets?Earnings season is underway. You've written about how it can be tempting to tweak a portfolio when companies share their forecasts. What should investors keep in mind?In this week's Markets Brief, you wrote about how optimism about Tesla's unproven future growth opportunities highlights what's going on in the broader market? Can you explain?What are you keeping an eye on for next week's column? Watch more from Morningstar:2025's Winners and Losers, from Gold to Small Cap Stocks to the 60/40 PortfolioThe Stock Market Is Ultra-Concentrated.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for October 30th Publish Date: October 30th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, October 30th and Happy birthday to Henry Winkler I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Walgreens and InCommunity partner to offer free vaccination clinics in Norcross A state representative steps down, creating another vacancy in the General Assembly Gwinnett senator to Kemp: Declare SNAP benefits emergency Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on carrots All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 9 STORY 1: Walgreens and InCommunity partner to offer free vaccination clinics in Norcross Walgreens and InCommunity are hosting free vaccination clinics around the metro area, including one this Friday in Norcross. No insurance? No problem. Everyone’s welcome—individuals, families, whoever needs it. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., head to the Gwinnett Academic Assist Program Training Center at 1600 Oakbrook Drive. Flu shots, COVID boosters, RSV, shingles, pneumonia—you name it, they’ve got it. Licensed Walgreens pharmacists will be there to handle it all. And yes, it’s completely free. If you’ve got Medicaid or insurance, they’ll process it, but it’s not required. Walk-ins are fine, or register online through Walgreens. Don’t miss it! STORY 2: A state representative steps down, creating another vacancy in the General Assembly  Another Georgia lawmaker is stepping down, adding to the growing list of vacancies in the state legislature. Rep. Marcus Wiedower announced Tuesday he’s resigning after six years in the House. Why? His job at Hillpointe, a real estate development firm, is booming—13 states now, up from one when he started. “It’s bittersweet,” he said, explaining the travel demands would pull him away from the Capitol. Wiedower chaired the House Appropriations Subcommittee on General Government. A special election will be held to fill his seat in District 121, along with three others left vacant by resignations and, tragically, a death. Politics never slows down. STORY 3: Gwinnett senator to Kemp: Declare SNAP benefits emergency   State Sen. Nabilah Islam Parkes, is urging Gov. Brian Kemp to step in and help Georgia families who are about to lose their SNAP benefits because of the federal government shutdown. The shutdown, which started Oct. 1, has left Congress at a standstill, and now the USDA says SNAP benefits won’t be issued after Nov. 1. For 1.4 million Georgians—kids, seniors, working families—that’s a crisis. “Food isn’t optional. We have a moral duty to act.” She said. She’s asking Kemp to declare a state of emergency and use Georgia’s $14.6 billion surplus to provide aid, pointing to similar actions in Virginia and Louisiana. Meanwhile, the blame game rages on. But for families relying on SNAP? The politics don’t matter. They just need food. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: GDOT: Expect congestion near Netherworld on Halloween  If you’re heading to Netherworld this Halloween, brace yourself—it’s not just the haunted house that’ll be packed. The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) is warning drivers to expect traffic nightmares around metro Atlanta’s Halloween hotspots, especially Friday and Saturday. Netherworld, Six Flags, Stone Mountain Park, The Battery, and even Little 5 Points? All on the list of places where traffic’s gonna crawl. GDOT says the worst congestion will hit Friday from noon to 8 p.m. and Saturday from noon to 6 p.m. And don’t forget the neighborhoods. Trick-or-treaters will be out, so slow down, stay alert, and for the love of candy, don’t drive distracted—or worse, drunk. STORY 5: Helping Kids Shine: Former Athletes Bring KidStrong to Gwinnett to Boost Youth Confidence When Jordan and Shaun Wade moved to Atlanta, they were just looking for something—anything—that could help their 3-year-old son, Shiloh, come out of his shell. Confidence, they thought, was the key. Jordan, a former Team USA track star, and Shaun, an Ohio State football standout now with the Chicago Bears, tried a few programs. Nothing clicked. Then they found KidStrong in Alpharetta. KidStrong, a science-based program for kids (walking to age 11), focuses on emotional, mental, and physical growth. With over 160 locations nationwide, it’s helping 65,000 kids a week. And now, thanks to the Wades, it’s coming to Gwinnett County—Snellville in 2026, Lawrenceville in 2027. Though new to business, Jordan’s no stranger to leadership. A former captain of South Carolina’s track team, she’s ready to bring that same energy to KidStrong. For more info, visit kidstrong.com or email Jordan at jordan.wade@kidstrong.com.

Do all whitening gels work the same, or is the brand actually important? Are lights and in-office “power whitening” just marketing hype? And what's the deal with the infamous white diet - do your patients really need to give up coffee and red wine? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Wyman Chan, the man who literally hung up his drills in 2002 to dedicate his career to whitening alone. With over 20,000 cases under his belt (and a PhD in the science behind it), Wyman shares his three golden rules for whitening success: trays, communication, and conscious bleaching. We're also joined by Dr. Niki Shah, who brings his own insights into whitening and patient care, making this a conversation packed with both science and clinical experience. Wyman introduces his latest invention—Magic 3, a fizzing gel that reveals and removes plaque while calming gums. Plus, Wyman busts some of the biggest whitening myths (sorry, “white diet”) and explains why he no longer bothers with internal bleaching. If you've ever wondered how to make whitening safer, more predictable, and less stressful for you and your patients—this is the episode you'll want to tune in for. Protrusive Dental Pearl Innovation in Hygiene with Magic 3 - What is Magic 3? A colorless plaque indicator gel developed by Wyman Chan. Fizzes on contact with plaque. Cleans teeth, removes superficial stains, and softens soft calculus. Clinical Application Alternative to scaling/polishing for routine patients. Nervous patients who dislike ultrasonic scalers. Children (6+) – safe as a Class I medical device. Orthodontic patients – helps prevent white spot lesions. Learn more at https://protrusive.co.uk/magic3 https://youtu.be/ImpHJP3Wxec Watch PDP245 on YouTube Key Takeaways: Teeth whitening success depends on tray design, formulation, technique, and compliance. Conscious bleaching helps minimise sensitivity. Sensitivity is due to peroxide reaching the pulp. Patients should adjust wear time gradually, starting short and increasing if comfortable. Communication and treatment planning are crucial to match whitening regimes with lifestyles. The “white diet” is not scientifically necessary - normal eating and drinking can resume within minutes. External bleaching alone can be effective, even for single dark teeth. Tetracycline-stained teeth can respond to whitening with the right protocols. The brand is less important than protocol consistency and clinician experience. In-office light-assisted whitening adds risk, cost, and chairside time without proven benefit. Allergic reactions are more likely caused by gel additives, not peroxide itself. Emerging products, such as peroxide-based gels for plaque disruption and gingival health, may complement whitening in the future.

Emily Kircher-Morris welcomes Sumit and Viraj Dhanda, a father-son duo who are working to update and rethink norms around communication, intelligence, and inclusion. Viraj is a nonspeaking autistic student who was diagnosed with autism and apraxia as a young child. Viraj and his father, Sumit, talk about their journey navigating the challenges and misconceptions surrounding non-verbal communication, the impact of apraxia, and the importance of presuming competence. Viraj shares his personal experiences through a communication tool, and tells the story of when he and his father discovered his unique condition. TAKEAWAYS Many non-speakers have apraxia of speech. Potential can be missed when you fail to presume competence in non-speaking people. Typing can be a transformative communication tool for non-speakers. Misconceptions about non-verbal communication can be damaging. Advocacy and persistence can lead to breakthroughs in education. Parents should explore all communication options for their children. Non-speaking people can and do have rich, complex thoughts. Education systems should rethink expectations for non-speakers. Emerging technologies offer hope for non-speaking people. Viraj and Sumit Dhanda are a father-son duo reshaping the conversation around communication, intelligence, and inclusion. Viraj, a nonspeaking autistic student admitted to MIT's Class of 2029, was diagnosed with autism and apraxia in early childhood. Through typing, he broke through profound communication barriers and revealed extraordinary strengths in mathematics, writing, and critical thinking. His poetry and essays offer rare insight into the inner world of nonspeaking autistics and have been featured by The Boston Globe, CBS Evening News, and NPR's Here & Now. Sumit, a finance professional and former executive at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Citadel Securities, and Evercore ISI, now dedicates much of his time to advocacy and storytelling alongside his son. With a PhD in Electrical Engineering from Stanford and graduate degrees from Dartmouth and BITS Pilani, Sumit brings a unique lens to the conversation. Together, they are co-authoring a memoir that weaves their two perspectives into one powerful narrative—challenging assumptions and expanding what we understand about neurodiversity and human potential.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for October 23rd Publish Date: October 23rd PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, October 23rd and Happy birthday to Weird Al Yankovich I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. 'Fall back' — Daylight Saving Time ends Nov. 2 Gwinnett Tech hosts inaugural Gryphon Gratitude Breakfast Georgians react to Instagram 'PG-13' rating policy Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sweet tooths All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 6 STORY 1: 'Fall back' — Daylight Saving Time ends Nov. 2 Like it or not, it’s that time again—Daylight Saving Time ends on Nov. 2, and we “fall back” an hour. Darker evenings, groggy mornings, and maybe an extra cup of coffee (or three). But does this time shift really matter anymore? Dr. Jason Delaney, an economics professor at Georgia Gwinnett College, doesn’t think so. “It was about saving energy back when lighting and heating were inefficient, and air conditioning didn’t exist. That’s not the world we live in now,” he said. “Economically, the impact is minimal.” Psychologist Dr. David Ludden sees it differently: “It messes with your body. We’re not built to adjust quickly—our sleep cycles rely on light cues.” His advice? Get outside in natural light or use bright indoor lights during the day to help reset your internal clock. So, while the time change might feel like a relic of the past, it still throws us off—at least for a little while. STORY 2: Gwinnett Tech hosts inaugural Gryphon Gratitude Breakfast On Oct. 15, Gwinnett Tech Foundation hosted its first-ever Gryphon Gratitude Breakfast, and the room was packed—150 donors, students, and community partners all gathered to celebrate the life-changing power of giving. It wasn’t just about handshakes and thank-yous. Students stood up and shared raw, personal stories—how scholarships kept them in school, how the Foundation gave them a shot at a future they almost gave up on. “Every donation has a face,” said Darcie Johnson, the Foundation’s executive director. “You’re not just giving money—you’re changing lives.” The event wrapped with a challenge: “Fuel Your Purpose.” A reminder to give, to act, to make it count. STORY 3: Georgians react to Instagram 'PG-13' rating policy   Meta’s new “PG-13” filter for Instagram? Let’s just say Georgians aren’t exactly buying it. The company claims the filter will block posts with strong language, risky stunts, or content promoting harmful behaviors—like drug paraphernalia. Sounds good on paper, right? But critics are calling it a PR stunt, not a real solution. Sharon Winkler, who lost her 17-year-old son Alex to suicide in 2017, isn’t convinced. “This feels like another empty promise to make parents feel safe,” she said. Counselor Laura Ladefian agrees. “Filters won’t fix the algorithms that make these platforms addictive,” she said. “It’s like putting a Band-Aid on a broken arm.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: State names Suwanee an 'exceptional' main street city  Suwanee’s got some bragging rights—officially. The Georgia Department of Community Affairs just named it one of the state’s newest Georgia Exceptional Main Street (GEMS) communities. Canton snagged the other spot, but let’s focus on Suwanee for a second. Why the honor? It’s all about their downtown. Public spaces, smart planning, and a vibe that mixes charm with progress. Earning GEMS status isn’t easy. Cities have to prove they’re not just growing economically but also keeping their unique character intact. Suwanee nailed it. STORY 5: AMC brings first new Dolby Experience to Gwinnett since 2017 Big news for movie lovers in Gwinnett—Dolby Cinema is back after an eight-year hiatus. This past weekend, AMC unveiled its brand-new Dolby Cinema at the AMC Dine-In Webb Gin 11 on Scenic Highway in unincorporated Lawrenceville. It’s the first Dolby Experience in the county since 2017, and honestly? It’s a game-changer. Think ultra-vivid colors, insane brightness, and sound so immersive it feels like it’s crawling up your spine. Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos combine to make every scene hit harder—like you’re in the movie, not just watching it. This upgrade came after three months of renovations, and AMC isn’t stopping here. They’re planning 40 more Dolby locations nationwide, aiming for over 200 total. For now, though, Gwinnett’s got something to brag about.

In this episode of The Pulling Curls Podcast, hosts Hilary Erickson and Dr. Janene Fuerch, a neonatologist at Stanford, dive into what every pregnant family should know about the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit). They discuss why it's important to understand NICU basics—even if you're planning a smooth delivery—and share practical tips on how to cope if your baby needs extra care, including ways to stay connected, manage stress, and support bonding. The episode also highlights exciting innovations aimed at making NICU stays safer and more comfortable for babies and families, plus insights on hospital levels and advocacy for neonatal advancements.   Big thanks to our sponsor Laborie -- LifeBubble® Umbilical Catheter Securement System LifeBubble is made of a Soft Medical Grade Silicone to minimize skin irritation, Reduces the Risk of Catheter Migration and Early Discontinuation, and Protects the Insertion Site of our most vulnerable patients. Find them on Instagram @laborie_ob Today's guest is Janene Fuerch, MD. She is a Clinical Associate Professor of Pediatrics, Division of Neonatal and Developmental Medicine, Associate Director of the Biodesign Innovation Fellowship Program at Stanford University, and Co-Director of Impact1 where she mentors and advises entrepreneurs in the pediatric and maternal space through all aspects of medical device development, from identifying clinical needs to commercialization.

The NICU can range from having just a couple of extra staff in the delivery room to having 15 people if a baby needs help, making the birth experience much more intense and involved. Planning ahead with your partner about who will go with the baby in case of separation can help make a stressful situation a little easier. About 10% of babies need some help breathing at birth, but most recover quickly; only a small percentage require NICU care beyond the basic interventions. NICUs are graded by levels (I-IV), and knowing what level your hospital offers can help families prepare—higher-level NICUs can treat more complex issues but aren't always necessary for uncomplicated births. If your hospital isn't a level III or IV, babies needing higher-level care may need to be transferred, which could mean temporary separation from parents; hospitals always work to reunite families as quickly as possible. NICU nurses are passionate, skilled, and deeply care about the babies and their families, creating a loving and safe environment even during stressful times. Parents can support their recovery and milk production by getting rest and using NICU technologies (like webcams) to stay connected—it's okay to take breaks and trust the NICU staff. Emerging technologies like Labry's Life Bubble are making NICU stays safer and more comfortable, allowing parents to hold their babies even when special catheters are in place. Skin-to-skin contact in the NICU is highly beneficial for both babies and parents, helping with bonding, milk production, and even neurodevelopment; parents are encouraged to ask staff about timing and any concerns about wires or tubes.

    HEADLINE: AI Regulation Debate: Premature Laws vs. Emerging Norms GUEST NAME: Kevin Frazier SUMMARY: Kevin Frazier critiques the legislative rush to regulate AI, arguing that developing norms might be more effective than premature laws. He notes that bills like California's AB 1047, which demands factual accuracy, fundamentally misunderstand AI's generative nature. Imposing vague standards, as seen in New York's RAISE Act, risks chilling innovation and preventing widespread benefits, like affordable legal or therapy tools. Frazier emphasizes that AI policy should be grounded in empirical data rather than speculative fears. 1960
