Podcasts about Epidemiology

In this illuminating episode we speak with Dr. Filippa Juul. An epidemiologist and leading researcher on the impact of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) on human health. Together, we unpack what ultra-processed really means, why it's not just about calories or macros, and how these foods are stealthily contributing to the global rise in obesity, chronic illness, and food addiction. Dr. Filippa Juul is a nutritional epidemiologist and Faculty Fellow at the Department of Public Health Policy and Management at the New York University School of Global Public Health (NYU GPH). She earned her PhD in Epidemiology from NYU GPH in 2020, following a MSc in Public Health Nutrition from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, and a BA in Nutrition and Dietetics from Universidad Autónoma de Madrid in Spain. Dr. Juul's research focuses on improving cardiometabolic health outcomes at the population level, with a particular interest in the role of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) in diet quality, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. She utilizes large U.S. population studies to examine these associations and is also exploring the biological mechanisms underlying the impact of UPFs on cardiometabolic health.  Dr. Juul explains the NOVA classification system, dives into recent groundbreaking studies, and offers insights into why UPFs are so difficult to resist—and what we can do about it, both individually and at the policy level. Key Takeaways 

At the beginning of May, the National Institutes of Health, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, announced a plan to develop a universal vaccine platform. Think: a single shot for flu or COVID-19 that would last years, maybe a lifetime. The plan—called Generation Gold Standard—has a reported budget of $500 million, and a tight deadline. But will it work? And where does the science on this actually stand? In this live broadcast, Hosts Flora Lichtman and Ira Flatow talk with epidemiologist Michael Osterholm and vaccine researcher Ted Ross.Guests: Michael Osterholm is Director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, Minnesota.Dr. Ted Ross is the global director of vaccine research at the Cleveland Clinic's Florida Research and Innovation Center in Port St. Lucie, Florida. Transcript will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

The Latest Research Behind Phantom Pain   You may have heard the saying, "Mind over Matter" a few times in your life. I know I have, but did you know that it is more than just a saying? Did you know that our brains are capable of helping us cope when we struggle, especially when we deal with pain? Today I learned how the brain can actually help us changing the way we think and perceive the pain we feel. We have the ability to redirect and reconnect our brain waves to cope with phantom pain, or any pain, that we experience. Today, I was honored to have on Dr Felipe Fregni, professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Harvard Medical School and Professor of Epidemiology at Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health, as well as the Director of the laboratory of Neuromodulation at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. He has been researching how the brain perceives pain and what is happening during bouts of pain to our brain. Dr Felipe Fregni, Harvard Professor   The hope is that if we learn how our brain works and how it changes during moments of pain or discomfort then we can start to use that information to better equip the individual to work through pain and eliminate it without medication! Wouldn't that be something! Studying the brain to find connections   Dr Fregni splits his time teaching at Harvard and working the lab at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital   Dr Fregni and his staff and students have been researching this topic for a while now and getting the data they need from participants, like myself, and they could use you too! Their goal is to create a device that you can wear to assist in pain elimination through brain waves. They started this study with bringing people into their lab to trial what they had created. Now they are onto phase 2 and getting new participants to work from home with their device. As an amputee I am excited to see research into phantom pain and how we deal with it and finding ways to cope without medication. Dr Fregni also mentioned that their research also branches into helping stroke victims and paralysis as well! When we figure out how pain is communicated within our body we can then begin to find ways to lessen or even eliminate it. One interesting thing we did touch on, which I stated at the very beginning was the mind over matter mentality. You may have heard me say that when I start hurting I tend to become active, I get moving and I find something to distract myself from thinking about the phantom pain. What Dr Fregni told me was that when we become active we start using our brain, we get neurons to fire and this makes for a healthy brain. So every time I'm struggling, my coping mechanism was to not think about the pain but to dive into something else. This is exactly what we should all be doing because we are creating connections in our brain, fire it up, and building it stronger. So mindset matters. Speaking to ourselves in positive ways matters. Even thinking about an activity we love to do creates connections in our brain for healing. What a powerful organ it is, indeed! I want to thank Dr Fregni for coming on and guiding us through how our brain is capable of helping us heal and for building this community of researchers to help those of us who are struggling with pain and need a better way to handle it. I look forward to seeing how your research builds a stronger and healthier tomorrow for us! Thank you! If you would like to take part in the clinical research happening right now, from the comfort of your own home you can reach out to Dr Fregni's department with the link below. I hope you all have a very blessed week. And as always until next time, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!! Much love,     To see if you qualify to participate in their study please click HERE

May 1, 2025 - State health officials have launched an online dashboard that makes it easy to track and analyze data on sexually transmitted diseases in New York. We explore this public facing tool with Wilson Miranda, surveillance director for the Office of Sexual Health and Epidemiology at the State Department of Health, and John Lake, evaluation specialist for the Office of Sexual Health and Epidemiology at the State Department of Health.

In this edition of Cancer Registry World, we explore the significance of familial pancreatic cancer and the vital role of familial cancer registries. Dr. Alison Klein, Professor of Oncology, Pathology, and Epidemiology, and Director of the National Familial Pancreas Tumor Registry (NFPTR) at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine—joins Dr. Rick Greene to share insights into the registry's goals and its unique contributions to cancer surveillance and patient management. Don't miss this engaging discussion packed with valuable perspectives.

Part 1 of this discussion examines psychology, philosophy, religion, spiritually, science, and medicine, a panel of five (5) people opens with the question, 'where am I?' and 'what is going on [in the world]?' and refers to James Hillman, ideas and action as an artificial distinction, are they the same thing? How are they interlinked? The poet Major Ragain is quoted, 'contemplation alters the course of rivers.' From the Bhagavad Gita: Freedom from action is not accomplished by abstaining from action, so how is it accomplished? Relinquishing the fruit of action Ghandi's, 'through service, I find myself.' The Panel begins to examine the Taoist concept of non-action, Wu Wei. How do we cultivate Wu Wei? The Panel explores Univerisal Truths. Natural action arises, we have a deep intrinsic calling, how do we find and express it? What is our reason for being here? To receive the Divine Will is a part of choiceless action. Biographies of Panel: Dr. Bob Insull is an New York State Licensed Psychologist with more than 60 years experience teaching, training, and treating in the arena of human behavior. In his clinical practice, he has worked across the developmental stages (children to golden-agers), across the diagnostic spectrum (chemical dependency, severe mental illness, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and PTSD), and treatment settings (clinics, inpatient psychiatric centers, and private practice). During the closing years of his practice, he became interested in the area of psychological trauma and worked with survivors in individual and group settings. He has been retired from active practice for about 15 years and spends his time engaged in self-discovery on the Sufi Path and social-change activities with his church. Brian Mistler is a Missouri-hillbilly curious about Reality. He has lived as a computer scientist, psychologist, running and growing businesses, and helping entrepreneurs, hospitals, and healthcare providers. Mid-life Brian had a partially debilitating nerve injury and soon after met a true Vedanta teacher who spent 30+ years in India and trained under Swami Chimayananda, Sawmi Dayananda, and others. This refocused his study of the classic non-dual wisdom as presented in the Bhagavad Gita and Upanishads. Learn more at http://www.stillcenter.media. Hari Om Tat Sat. Peace, peace, peace.

He retired several years ago from active psychiatric practice, but continues to incorporate what he has learned into his spiritual practices and offerings.

C'est une association bien connue : cigarette dans une main, tasse de café dans l'autre. Mais ce duo n'est pas seulement culturel ou lié aux pauses au travail. Il s'explique aussi par des raisons biologiques très concrètes.Fumer modifie la façon dont notre corps traite certaines substances, comme la caféine. La fumée de cigarette contient des composés qui "réveillent" certaines enzymes du foie. Ces enzymes vont alors dégrader la caféine plus rapidement que chez une personne non fumeuse. Résultat : la caféine reste moins longtemps dans l'organisme, et ses effets sont plus courts. Pour compenser, les fumeurs ont souvent besoin de boire plus de café pour ressentir le même coup de boost qu'un non-fumeur.Cette explication a été confirmée par la science. Une étude menée par l'Université de Bristol, publiée dans l'International Journal of Epidemiology, a analysé les données de plus de 250 000 personnes au Royaume-Uni, en Norvège et au Danemark. Elle a montré que chaque cigarette supplémentaire fumée par jour était associée à une augmentation de la consommation de café. Plus surprenant encore, une variante génétique liée à une consommation plus élevée de tabac était également associée à une consommation plus importante de café… mais uniquement chez les fumeurs. Cela confirme que le lien est bien biologique, et pas seulement une question d'habitude.Mais les raisons ne s'arrêtent pas là. Le café et la cigarette sont souvent consommés ensemble par habitude ou rituel : le café du matin avec la première clope de la journée, ou la pause café-clope entre collègues. Cette association, souvent ancrée dans le quotidien, renforce l'envie de consommer les deux en même temps.Il y a aussi un aspect pratique : certains fumeurs utilisent le café comme substitut dans les endroits où fumer est interdit, ou lorsqu'ils essaient de réduire leur consommation de tabac. Le geste, le moment de pause, la stimulation… le café devient alors un "remplaçant" psychologique à la cigarette.En résumé, les fumeurs boivent plus de café parce que leur corps élimine la caféine plus vite, mais aussi parce que les deux substances sont souvent liées dans leurs habitudes de vie. Ce lien a des implications pour la santé, notamment lors du sevrage tabagique ou de la prescription de certains médicaments. Un point de plus à connaître pour mieux comprendre les effets du tabac sur l'organisme — au-delà des poumons. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Today we are joined by a remarkable guest, Dr. Trenna Sutcliffe, a board-certified developmental-behavioral pediatrician and the founder of the Sutcliffe Clinic in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her educational history is impressive. She completed her undergraduate education in Molecular Biology and Medical Genetics followed by a masters degree in Biophysics at The University of Toronto. She obtained her Medical degree at McMaster University before her pediatric residency and training finished at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. And oh by the way, she then did a year of pediatric Neurology residency and a Fellowship in Developmental Pediatrics. And finally, another Masters degree in Epidemiology at Stanford University. Thus, her educational path has allowed her to see the developmental landscape through a wider lens covering many disciplines. Dr. Sutcliffe started the first Developmental Pediatrics Clinic at Stanford and played the role of trailblazer throughout her career. With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Sutcliffe specializes in supporting children with autism, ADHD, and anxiety, offering a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment. In this episode, she'll share her insights on the rising prevalence of these conditions, the importance of personalized care, and practical strategies for parents navigating developmental challenge. Fundamentally, Dr. Sutcliffe is a going to educate us on a better way to deliver whole person care to the developmentally challenged and beautiful children of this country. Two words encapsulate her work: empowering and thoughtful. Let's dive into this conversation with Dr. Sutcliffe to learn how we can help our children thrive! Dr. M

I sit down with Dr Aasma Shaukat, Gastroenterologist and Professor of Population Health, who is also trained in Epidemiology and Clinical Research, and Director of GI Outcomes Research at NYU Langone Health, Grossman School of Medicine.  We talk about progress in healthcare fields including gastroenterology.  We talk microbiome (I compared my digestive tract to the ocean).  We did talk colonoscopy prep in quite a bit of detail.  We also talk about screening rates in the NYC area< C5 and how fortunate we are to work and live in an area that really tries to be inclusive and proactive.  Gastroenterology has incorporated AI tools, so far in polyp detection, but also summarizing patient history and creating a whole picture, which is also helpful in oncology and more.  Note that this was originally recorded just after the New Year in early January.  

Send us a textShort Summary: The flaws of nutrition epidemiology with Dr. John SpeakmanAbout the guest: John Speakman, PhD is a professor at the University of Aberdeen and runs a lab in Shenzhen, China, focusing on energy balance, obesity, and aging. Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Dr. John Speakman explores the pitfalls of nutrition epidemiology, a field that links diet to health outcomes like cancer and obesity but often produces contradictory results. They discuss flawed methods like 24-hour recalls and food frequency questionnaires, which rely on memory and are prone to bias, and introduce Speakman's new tool using doubly labeled water to screen implausible dietary data. The conversation highlights systematic biases, such as under-reporting by heavier individuals, and emerging technologies like photo diaries and AI for better dietary tracking.Key Takeaways:Nutrition epidemiology studies often contradict each other due to unreliable methods.Common techniques like 24-hour recalls & food frequency questionnaires suffer from memory issues, portion size issues, and systematic biases, often underestimating food intake.Heavier individuals (higher BMI) under-report food intake more, skewing associations between diet & obesity.Speakman's tool, based on 6,500 doubly labeled water measurements, predicts energy expenditure to flag implausible dietary survey data.Emerging technologies, like smartphone photo diaries and AI food identification, promise more accurate dietary tracking than traditional surveys.Randomized controlled trials, not surveys, provide the most reliable dietary insights; single-day intake surveys linked to outcomes years later are dubious.Speakman advises ignoring most nutrition epidemiology headlines due to their inconsistency and lack of prognostic value for behavior change.Related episode:Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Episode Overview   In this unfiltered and dynamic episode of Higher Density Living, host Jason Rigby sits down with Dr. Audrey Schnell, an emotional intelligence expert with over 40 years of experience studying human behavior, self-sabotage, and personal transformation. With an M.A. in Clinical Psychology and a Ph.D. in Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Dr. Schnell brings a unique blend of science-backed insight and practical wisdom to the conversation. She's spent decades helping clients—from entrepreneurs to everyday individuals—end self-sabotage, master their emotions, and unlock their potential. Together, Jason and Dr. Schnell dive into the messy truths of emotions, boundaries, and productivity, offering actionable strategies to turbocharge emotional intelligence and live a more intentional life.   Guest Bio: Dr. Audrey Schnell Credentials: M.A. in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D. in Epidemiology and Biostatistics Experience: Over 40 years researching why and how people change Mission: Enables clients to stop self-sabotage, eliminate emotional triggers, and achieve their goals by identifying blind spots and mastering emotions Impact: Helps individuals and businesses build long-term relationships, turn difficult clients into success stories, and reach peak performance Achievements: Featured speaker at retreats, frequent podcast guest, and founder of two successful online summits featuring 20+ top experts in healing and peak performance Personal Life: Lives off-grid on 40 acres in rural West Virginia with her husband and dogs Website: audreyschnell.com     Key Topics Discussed   Boundaries: The Ultimate Power Move (00:36 - 06:51) Why We Struggle with Boundaries: Dr. Schnell explains that boundaries are less about others and more about self-care—what we're willing to accept or not. Many fail to set them due to a need to be liked, hypervigilance, or fear of rejection. Practical Tip: For entrepreneurs, set time boundaries (e.g., no client texts at 6 a.m. unless it's a true emergency). A simple automated response like “I've seen your message and will reply soon” can ease the pressure. Jason's Insight: Entrepreneurs often get addicted to busyness, feeding off high cortisol levels and the need to feel wanted. Saying No to Good Things: Dr. Schnell highlights the challenge of rejecting appealing opportunities that derail focus—a lesson reinforced by Jason's anecdote about a billionaire who mastered saying “no” to amazing offers.   2.  Emotional Intelligence for Everyone (12:14 - 18:22) Underrated EI Skill: Empathy is the game-changer we're sleeping on. It's about understanding others' feelings, not just feeling them (empathy vs. sympathy). Cultural Traps: Jason notes society's victimhood obsession, asking how narcissists can develop empathy. Dr. Schnell debunks the overuse of “narcissist” labels and urges people to escape survival mode to unlock self-awareness and empathy. Practical Application: In relationships, aim to connect, not win. Start conversations from shared goals (e.g., “We both want to retire by 70”) and ask curious questions like “What made you say that?” instead of arguing.   3. The Science of Getting Things Done (09:15 - 11:41, 21:24 - 28:10) Dr. Schnell's Journey: Her shift from clinical psychology to research (sparked by the rise of computers in the ‘80s) taught her discipline and the power of starting overwhelming projects. Fear of Finishing: People avoid completing projects due to fear of imperfection or uncertainty about “what's next.” Dr. Schnell calls BS on perfectionism—it's often avoidance or lack of commitment, not a noble trait. Discipline Equals Freedom: Procrastination stems from relying on urgency rather than motivation. Jason ties this to his own shift from fear-driven hustle to intentional discipline, noting it protects the nervous system.   4. Dumbest Emotional Traps and How to Escape (29:09 - 37:18) The Trap: Worry and selfishness top the list. Worry is “praying for the outcome you don't want,” draining energy without purpose. Selfishness shows up when we obsess over ourselves instead of serving others (e.g., coaches fixating on client perceptions). Climbing Out: Take care of your nervous system first—hunger and fatigue amplify toddler-like meltdowns. Self-awareness is key: name your feelings (e.g., “I'm agitated”) to contain them, and don't trust them as facts. Jason's Take: Society's feelings-obsession (especially among younger generations) reflects a pendulum swing from repression to indulgence, fueled by our brain's energy-conserving wiring.   5. Decision-Making and Overthinking (38:58 - 44:26) Why We Overthink: Survival instincts overestimate task difficulty and underestimate post-task relief, stalling action. Visualization can trick the brain into thinking a job's done, reducing motivation. Solutions: Set a timer for 15 minutes to start, lean on discipline over habits, and anchor decisions to identity (e.g., “I'm not an average person” stopped Dr. Schnell from mindless scrolling). Jason's Game: He challenges his ego's comfort-seeking, realizing unchecked indulgence leads to stagnation.   6. Saying No Without Guilt (46:24 - 50:04) The Guilt Trap: People (especially women, per Jason) say “yes” to draining relationships or tasks to avoid discomfort. Guilt isn't inherently bad—it can motivate—but unchecked, it's self-focused. How to Say No: Reflect on the “why” behind guilt (e.g., “Will I feel like a bad person?”). Weigh the cost to yourself vs. others, and practice sitting with uncomfortable feelings instead of caving.   7. Three No-BS EI Strategies (51:50 - 55:00) Watch More TV: Observe others' behaviors in media to spot what you don't want to emulate (e.g., whining). Feel Your Feelings: Name and own them—don't suppress or over-trust them for decisions. Believe in Yourself: Focus on competence and courage, not fleeting confidence. Practice beats imposter syndrome every time.   Memorable Quotes Dr. Schnell: “Boundaries are really about us and what we are willing and not willing to do.” Jason: “We can get so caught up in daily tasks that we look at people as ‘Did you perform?' instead of having empathy for them as a human.” Dr. Schnell: “If one more person says they work better under pressure, nobody works better under pressure—they just work.” Dr. Schnell: “Feelings aren't facts. Don't trust your feelings.” Jason: “Discipline equals freedom—that's so true.” Dr. Schnell: “What you name, you contain.”     Resources Mentioned Dr. Schnell's Website: audreyschnell.com Upcoming Docu-Series: “How to Have Vibrant Health, Wealth, Freedom, and Live the Life You Desire” – Launches April 1, 2025 (details on her website, Facebook, and LinkedIn) Social Media: Follow Dr. Schnell on Facebook and LinkedIn     Final Thoughts   This episode is a masterclass in emotional intelligence, blending Dr. Schnell's 40 years of expertise with Jason's relatable insights as an entrepreneur and seeker of higher living.

Over the past few generations, male fertility and sperm counts have declined in America and across the globe. Epidemiology studies show that male fertility has been decreasing since at least 1938, with a significant drop in fertility rates --52% from 1973 to 2011-- and the trend continues to worsen. While outside factors interfere with fertility, personal choices and dietary needs also play a crucial role in supporting healthy fertility in men. The health of future generations depend on your choices and nutritional optimization.

Alors que les voitures électriques se multiplient sur nos routes, une question fait débat : sont-elles plus dangereuses que les voitures thermiques ? Une étude britannique de grande ampleur, publiée le 21 mai 2024 dans le Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, apporte un éclairage inédit sur le sujet.Les chercheurs ont analysé plus de 960 000 accidents de la route survenus en Angleterre entre 2013 et 2022, impliquant différents types de véhicules : essence, diesel, hybrides et 100 % électriques. Leur objectif : mesurer précisément les risques de collisions avec des piétons, en tenant compte du type de motorisation.Les résultats sont frappants. Les voitures électriques présentent un risque de collision avec un piéton supérieur de 50 % par rapport aux véhicules thermiques. En milieu urbain, ce risque grimpe même à 66 %, ce qui inquiète particulièrement les auteurs de l'étude. En comparaison, les voitures hybrides présentent un risque accru de 19 % — un écart moins marqué, mais tout de même significatif.La raison principale ? Le silence des véhicules électriques à basse vitesse. Contrairement aux voitures thermiques, elles n'émettent quasiment aucun bruit lorsqu'elles roulent lentement. Résultat : les piétons, surtout les plus vulnérables — personnes âgées, malvoyants, enfants —, peuvent ne pas les entendre arriver. Les chercheurs rappellent que près de 90 % des accidents impliquant des véhicules électriques surviennent à des vitesses inférieures à 30 km/h, généralement en ville.Autre facteur : la capacité d'accélération immédiate des véhicules électriques. Leur couple puissant dès le démarrage peut provoquer des mouvements brusques, parfois difficiles à anticiper pour les piétons.L'étude montre toutefois que les accidents graves ou mortels ne sont pas plus fréquents avec les véhicules électriques. Ce sont surtout les chocs à basse vitesse, avec blessures légères ou modérées, qui sont en hausse.Pour limiter les risques, les auteurs recommandent plusieurs mesures : améliorer les dispositifs sonores des voitures électriques, adapter l'infrastructure urbaine pour mieux signaler leur présence, et former les conducteurs à ces spécificités.En conclusion, cette étude ne remet pas en cause la transition vers l'électrique, mais elle rappelle une chose essentielle : si la voiture change, notre vigilance, elle, doit rester intacte.

How relaxation through breath and movement can help create the space needed for self-compassion and healing.2. That when we operate from a place of love it allows for openness, healing and progress.3. A self-compassion practice you can use to help when experiencing moments of self-doubt or high pressure situations. “I sort of have a definition of compassion that's different from what's out there. And my definition really is allowing all things to be without judgment.” - 00:11:27“Self-love comes from within. It is an overflowing love that happens. And in fact, you stop needing things from other people. You don't need them to be any specific way because you've tapped into your own inner fountain of love." 00:34:36“Love has the power to transform and has the power to transform an enemy into a friend and that it is the solution that we're looking for if we have the courage to do it.” 01:25:46

Melissa E. Middeldorp, MPH, PhD, University Medical Centre, Groningen & University of Adelaide, is joined by So-Ryoung Lee, MD, PhD, Seoul National University Hospital, and Adrian D. Elliott, PhD, University of Adelaide/Royal, Adelaide Hospital, to discuss a study that compares atrial fibrillation (AF) epidemiology and risk factors between the UK Biobank (a predominantly European cohort) and the Korean NHIS-HEALS cohort to explore racial differences in AF incidence. Findings revealed that AF was more prevalent in the UK cohort than in the Korean cohort, with BMI and smoking showing stronger associations with AF risk in the UK population. Despite these differences, several risk factors, including hypertension and diabetes, were common predictors in both populations. The study highlights the complex interplay of lifestyle and healthcare system factors along with analysis of different large cohort studies in AF development and underscores the need for population-specific risk assessment and prevention strategies. https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://www.heartrhythmjournal.com/article/S1547-5271(25)00128-6/fulltext Host Disclosure(s): M.

Five years ago, in response to the Covid pandemic, the government mandated a series of lockdowns, with the closure of schools and businesses and social distancing. Tom Sutcliffe is joined by guests to discuss how such a monumental event could have had affected brain cognition, and whether there have been lasting effects on young people. But he also hears tales of resilience among neurodiverse communities.The neuroscientist Daniel Yon looks at the cognitive impact of unprecedented events in his forthcoming book, A Trick of the Mind - How the Brain Invents Your Reality (published, June 2025). He explains how times of instability and uncertainty upset the brain's ability to understand the world, and make people more susceptible to conspiracy theories. The Covid-19 Social Study was the largest study exploring the psychological and social effects of the pandemic on the UK population. Dr Daisy Fancourt, Associate Professor of Psychobiology and Epidemiology at University College London explains what they learnt about the impact of social isolation. The developmental psychologist at Cambridge University, Professor Claire Hughes, has looked more closely at families with young children, across six different countries, with very different lockdown policies. Although there was a link between family stress related to the pandemic and child problem behaviours, more recent work questions whether the lockdown has had longer term effects. The artist and zinemaker Dr Lea Cooper has co-curated a new exhibition at the Wellcome Collection, Zines Forever! DIY Publications and Disability Justice (until 14th September). Zines are self-published works, and Dr Cooper says several on display were created during lockdown, and showcase personal stories of resistance and self-expression.Producer: Katy HickmanPart of BBC Radio 4's series of programmes exploring Lockdown's Legacy

This week we discuss vectors in a hotter world.   Vector-borne diseases, which are transmitted by hematophagous arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, and sandflies, pose a significant burden on global public health. These diseases disproportionately affect populations in tropical and subtropical regions, where environmental conditions favor the survival and proliferation of vectors. Given that vectors are ectothermic organisms, their life cycles, reproduction, survival rates, and geographic distribution are heavily influenced by climate variables such as temperature, rainfall, and humidity. Consequently, changes in climate patterns can have profound effects on the transmission dynamics of vector-borne diseases, altering their geographic spread and intensity. Rising global temperatures have led to the expansion of vector habitats into previously unsuitable regions, including temperate zones. Warmer climates accelerate the development of many vectors and pathogens, reducing the extrinsic incubation period of viruses such as dengue, Zika, and chikungunya. Additionally, increased temperatures can extend the breeding season of mosquitoes like Aedes aegypti and Anopheles species, enhancing their capacity to transmit diseases such as malaria. Conversely, extreme heat events may reduce vector survival in some regions, leading to localized declines in transmission. ​Changes in precipitation patterns also play a crucial role in shaping vector distribution. Heavy rainfall events can create new breeding sites for mosquitoes by increasing the availability of stagnant water, while drought conditions may drive vectors closer to human settlements in search of water sources. In particular, shifts in rainfall patterns have been linked to outbreaks of malaria, dengue, and West Nile virus in various parts of the world. Increased humidity can further facilitate the survival of certain pathogens within vectors, enhancing their ability to transmit infections. Beyond climate variables, other anthropogenic factors contribute to the spread of vector-borne diseases. Land use changes, such as deforestation and urbanization, have disrupted natural ecosystems, bringing vectors and humans into closer contact. For example, deforestation in the Amazon has been associated with increased malaria transmission due to the creation of new breeding sites for Anopheles mosquitoes. Similarly, expanding urban populations with inadequate water management systems provide ideal conditions for the proliferation of Aedes mosquitoes, driving the rise in dengue and chikungunya cases. Globalization and human mobility further compound the issue by facilitating the movement of infected individuals and vectors across borders. Increased travel and trade have contributed to the introduction and establishment of vector-borne diseases in regions where they were previously rare. For instance, the spread of Aedes albopictus, a competent vector for dengue and chikungunya, has been linked to international trade in used tires and lucky bamboo plants, which serve as breeding grounds during transport. The multifaceted relationship between climate change and vector-borne diseases presents a challenge for public health interventions. While climate factors influence vector dynamics, their impact is often modulated by socio-economic conditions, infrastructure, and public health responses. To mitigate the growing threat of vector-borne diseases, an integrated approach is necessary—combining climate adaptation strategies, vector control measures, surveillance programs, and community engagement. Recent research underscores the importance of predictive modeling to anticipate outbreaks and inform public health policies. Advances in remote sensing, artificial intelligence, and climate modeling are enabling researchers to identify high-risk areas and implement targeted interventions. Strengthening early warning systems and investing in sustainable vector control strategies, such as genetically modified mosquitoes and Wolbachia-infected mosquito programs, offer promising avenues for reducing disease transmission. In conclusion, while climate change is reshaping the global landscape of vector-borne diseases, its effects are complex and intertwined with other environmental and societal factors. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for developing proactive strategies to mitigate the risks associated with the redistribution of vectors and the spread of diseases worldwide. By integrating climate science, epidemiology, and public health measures, we can better prepare for emerging threats and protect vulnerable populations from the growing impact of vector-borne diseases.

In 2000, the United States declared that measles had been eliminated. But just 15 years later, the disease made a comeback—and it hasn't gone away since. In this episode, Dr. Adam Ratner, director of the Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at NYU and author of Booster Shots: The Urgent Lessons of Measles and the Uncertain Future of Children's Health, explains why measles outbreaks are occurring again—as vaccine hesitancy and the antivax movement is on the rise—and what this means for the future of children's health.Ratner describes why measles is the most contagious disease we know of, and why it can be particularly harmful to children. As vaccination rates for children and adults continue to decrease in the U.S., are we at risk of undoing decades of medical progress? And what can we do to stop it?
