In this episode, host Dr. Doug Reh speaks with Dr. Eugene Chang. They discuss the recently published Research Article: “A prospective longitudinal study assessing the impact of rhinovirus and bacterial infections in acute exacerbations of chronic rhinosinusitis”. The full manuscript is available online in the International Forum of Allergy and Rhinology. Listen and subscribe for […]
In this podcast, we interview Dr. Eugene Chang, a national and renowned physician-scientist from the University of Chicago. In his lab, he and his team study the interactive relationship between intestinal microbes and the gut they live in, a relationship that is fundamental to our health. When the right balance is disturbed, the consequences can be catastrophic. Large shifts in the bacteria that make up the human microbiome (often caused by changes in environment and lifestyle) can trigger the development of autoimmune diseases such as IBD, Celiac, Diabetes, and others, especially in people who are also genetically susceptible. Dr. Chang's lab works tirelessly using cutting-edge approaches to better understand the human gut microbiome to prevent and treat disease.
Curious about this week's job title? In this episode my guest, Eugene Chang, tells me more in detail about his job for Tropical Smoothie Cafe and how the pandemic has affected this particular restaurant franchise. Listen to hear how this marketing major got where he is today and for some helpful advice for those trying to figure out the next step for their life. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blair-kim/support
After a restful summer, I can't think of a better way to start off the new season than with a reunion! Long time listeners will remember experienced Ironman triathletes Rob Koh and Sam Chung. Both Sam and Rob were training for Ironman races when COVID-19 hit the U.S. in early March. In today's episode, they recount both the general chaos and confusion of those early days and how it impacted their training, as well as how their triathlon community adjusted to the new realities of the pandemic and their experience with "virtual" racing. Along they way, they also make a solid effort to recruit co-host Eugene Chang into the sport! Thank you Sam and Rob for once again coming on the podcast (for what's now looking like a series!). Thank you Eugene as always for your co-hosting presence. And thank you everyone for listening! Update / Spoiler alert: After we recorded this episode, Sam got his bike back! :) Music: tubebackr - District 19 Babasmas - City Lights My reading journey: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/34364-david?order=d&shelf=read&sort=date_read https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rmGsRHNFLGW3CdbXndnnS8CeCmw0qavfTwCuiSzmGEY/edit SUBSCRIBE, RATE, and REVIEW What Just Happened? on iTunes, Overcast, Stitcher, Google Play, and Spotify.

Who are you? In today’s episode, Eugene and I plumb the depths of our upbringing to talk about our childhoods, our values, and our attitudes toward race, religion, and politics. Eugene reveals what happened when he played “the line game” as a resident advisor in-training at Michigan, and I talk about why I consider myself the “black sheep” of the family, at least when it comes to my faith.

Your smartphone is your constant companion. Your connection to the world. An extension of you. But is your smartphone REALLY bad for you? In this episode, Eugene Chang and I talk about how we use our iPhone and Android devices respectively, and discuss whether this is a good or bad thing. Eugene talks about some apps that have been especially useful for him as a techy, and I describe (and attempt to defend) the Rube Goldberg like contortions I make to "stick it to big telecom." This is the first of what hopefully will be a series of “conversations with my brother” about topics we think are interesting and relevant in our modern age. Thanks for listening!

The modern workplace can be stressful--to say the least. Most of us work out of necessity, and yet we also have unique motivations that fuel our creativity. What inspires us not just to work but to do our very best? Is there a right or wrong approach to work? What drives highly ambitious or ultra competitive people? To help answer these questions, I’m joined by Eugene Chang and licensed therapist Tim Long. Tim helps us interpret our different approaches to work through the lens of a professional counselor, and sheds light on the hidden forces at play (no pun intended) in how we approach our careers. Many thanks to Tim and Eugene!!! Tim's practice can be found here: http://www.kainoschristiantherapy.com/329 N.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Eugene is back for a conversation about The Lego Batman Movie! I offer my bold outrageous theory that the movie — while perfectly kid friendly — is ultimately not a “kids movie” (and who it’s really for). Eugene reveals what he thought about Will Arnett’s Batman and how this movie compared to the original. Hint: It’s not a sequel. And we both talk about our favorite scenes.

On this week’s podcast we spoke with Drs. Eugene Chang and Vanessa Leone from the University of Chicago. Drs. Chang and Leone recently published a paper describing that gut bacteria influence the circadian clock. We talked with them about their most recent paper and talked about how this could influence humans. Remember to call in to ask any questions about the microbiome that you would like answered on future podcasts. The number is 518-945-8583. Click here for more detailed shownotes.
In this edition, we learn about how microbes in our gut help us keep to a daily schedule, with Vanessa Leone and Eugene Chang (00:00) (Cell Host & Microbe), designing drugs that influence cyclic AMP, with Stephen Yarwood (10:57) (Trends in Pharmacological Sciences) and around-up of recent research highlights from around Cell Press (17:30).
