We're talking about the fascinating link between the mouth and the heart, and how tiny microbes play a big role. Tune to find out what oral health can tell us about overall health.  Special Guest: Dr. Jessica Mark Welch  For more information, show notes and transcripts visit https://www.ada.org/podcast Show Notes  In this episode, we're connecting the dots between the oral microbiome and overall health and talking about the fascinating link between the mouth and the heart, and how tiny microbes play a big role.   Our guest for this episode is Dr. Jessica Mark Welch, a Senior Scientist and Full Professor at the ADA Forsyth Institute in Somerville, MA.  Dr. Mark Welch and her team use both imaging and DNA sequencing approaches to investigate the structure and organization of the oral microbiome. She is co-developer of the Combinatorial Labeling and Spectral Imaging-Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (CLASI-FISH) strategy for imaging the spatial organization of microbial communities, with which she and her colleagues have discovered highly organized, complex structures in human dental plaque and on the human tongue. Her group uses DNA sequence data to construct pangenomes of oral microbes and examines metagenomic data to investigate why different bacteria live where they do, and how we can encourage the growth of health-promoting bacteria in the mouth. Dr. Mark Welch curates the Human Oral Microbiome Database to provide the research community with high-quality, curated information about oral bacteria, their genomes, and their distribution throughout the mouth.  Dr. Mark Welch explains her work with oral microbiome, and the connection between heart health and oral health. She shares that the mouth contains hundreds of bacterial species that form distinct communities on teeth (dental plaque) and on the tongue (tongue biofilm). A balanced oral microbiome supports normal metabolism and contributes to blood pressure regulation.  Researchers are investigating why so many different bacterial species coexist in the mouth and how these interdependent microbial communities share metabolic functions to support each other.  Dr. Mark Welch says her research explores how differences in people's mouth bacteria might explain varied responses.  The conversation shifts to the implications of microbiome research for oral health and how a deeper understanding of bacterial communities could eventually influence approaches to patient care.   Resources  Learn more about the research from the ADA Forsyth Science Institute.  See what makes ADA Forsyth® dentech™ the top conference for oral health innovation — find out more.  Stay connected with the ADA on social media!

In episode 31 of Recsperts, I sit down with Elisabeth Lex, Full Professor of Human-Computer Interfaces and Inclusive Technologies at Graz University of Technology and a leading researcher at the intersection of recommender systems, psychology, and human–computer interaction. Together, we explore how recommender systems can become truly human-centric by integrating cognitive, emotional, and personality-aware models into their design.Elisabeth begins by addressing a common reductionism in the field: treating users primarily as data points rather than as humans with goals, emotions, memories, and cognitive boundaries. We revisit the origins of psychology-informed recommendation, including the Grundy system -the first recommender system, built nearly 50 years ago - which framed book recommendation through stereotype modeling. From there, we discuss how the community's focus shifted toward solving recommendation mainly as an algorithmic optimization problem, often sidelining richer models of human decision-making.We then map out the three major branches of psychology-informed RecSys - cognition-inspired, affect-aware, and personality-aware - and dive into practical examples. Elisabeth walks us through her work on modeling music re-listening behavior using cognitive architectures such as ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thought–Rational) and shows how cognitive constructs like memory decay, attention, and familiarity can meaningfully augment standard approaches like collaborative filtering. We also explore how hybrid systems that combine cognitive models with collaborative filtering can yield not just higher accuracy but also more novelty, diversity, and clearer explanations.Our conversation also turns to user-centric evaluation. Elisabeth argues that accuracy metrics alone cannot tell us whether a system is genuinely helpful. Instead, we must measure attitudes, perceptions, motivations, and emotional responses - while carefully accounting for cognitive biases, UI effects, and users' lived experiences.Towards the end, Elisabeth discusses emerging research directions such as hybrid AI (symbolic + sub-symbolic methods), the role of LLMs and agents, the risks of replacing human studies with automated evaluations, and the responsibility our community has to understand users beyond their clicks.Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS – Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review.(00:00) - Introduction (03:15) - About Elisabeth Lex (07:55) - Grundy, the first Recommender System (09:03) - Bridging the Gap between Psychology and Modern RecSys (17:21) - On how and when Elisabeth became a Researcher (21:39) - Survey on Psychology-Informed RecSys (39:29) - Personality-Aware Recommendation (49:43) - Affect- and Emotion-Aware Recommendation (01:01:37) - Cognition-Inspired Recommendation and the ACT-R Framework (01:14:39) - Combining Collaborative Filtering and ACT-R for Explainability (01:21:26) - Human-Centered Design (01:26:15) - Further Challenges and Closing Remarks Links from the Episode:Elisabeth Lex on LinkedInWebsite of ElisabethAI for Society LabFirst International Workshop on Recommender Systems for Sustainability and Social Good | co-located with RecSys 2024Second International Workshop on Recommender Systems for Sustainability and Social Good | co-located with RecSys 2025HyPer Workshop: Hybrid AI for Human-Centric PersonalizationTutorial on Psychology-Informed RecSysACT-R: Adaptive Control of Thought-RationalPOPROX: Platform for OPen Recommendation and Online eXperimentationPapers:Elaine Rich (1979): User Modeling via StereotypesLex et al.

How does European Union law protect the rights of persons with disabilities? What role does the Court of Justice of the EU play in shaping disability rights across Member States? And why is it important to look at disability law through a truly European lens?These questions are at the heart of the latest episode of the Arqus Knowledge Pills podcast, featuring Bernardo Cortese, professor of European Union law at the University of Padua.In this episode,  Bernardo Cortese discusses his recent publication on the role of the Court of Justice of the European Union in adapting EU employment equality law to the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. He explains why EU law should be understood as a multi-layered system, where courts, legislators and institutions interact to progressively strengthen fundamental rights.The conversation also explores the most significant developments in EU disability law over the past decade, including advances in case law, legislation and soft law instruments. Special attention is given to particularly vulnerable groups, such as asylum seekers and third-country nationals with disabilities, who face multiple layers of discrimination and barriers to the protection of their dignity.The speaker also reflects on how his personal experience as a parent of a child with a severe disability has shaped his research, offering a powerful example of how legal concepts—such as discrimination by association—translate into real-life challenges. The episode concludes with a discussion on the importance of building a European culture of inclusion, empowerment and collective representation, and on how EU law can influence national systems to promote meaningful change.--------------Bernardo Cortese is a Full Professor of European Union Law at the Department of Public, International and EU Law of the University of Padua.

Andy takes us deep into the science of human performance – from understanding what truly anchors your progress, to why consistent habits matter more than hacks, and how sleep remains the most powerful (and overlooked) tool we have for health and longevity.Together we explore:The importance of addressing ‘performance anchors' before chasing optimisationNervous system health, stress load, and what HRV really tells usCold plunges, saunas, and whether they actually improve resilienceHydrogen water: hype or help?Why sleep is the cornerstone of health, and the environmental factors that shape itPractical strategies to improve recovery, energy, and performanceThis conversation is both deeply human and highly practical - inspiring you to re-think how you approach your health, performance, and success.Love,Sarah Ann

Guest: David Jacobsohn Gene therapy is redefining the treatment landscape for sickle cell disease, with approaches like gene addition, gene editing, and fetal hemoglobin induction showing promise in reducing or even eliminating symptoms. However, while these therapies offer some advantages over allogeneic stem cell transplant, they also come with significant challenges. In a conversation with Ryan Quigley, Dr. David Jacobsohn discusses considerations for these therapeutic approaches and their potential impacts on care plans for sickle cell disease patients. Dr. Jacobsohn is the Division Chief of the Blood and Marrow Transplantation Program at Children's National Hospital and Full Professor of Pediatrics at the George Washington University in Washington, DC.

This special rebroadcast honors the late Dr. Jeff Meldrum, whose passing marks the loss of one of the most respected voices in the field of anthropology and cryptozoology. Originally recorded after a chance meeting at a remote gas station—a moment that seemed to embody synchronicity or some greater cosmic order—this conversation remains one of Kelly's most meaningful and in-depth interviews. Dr. Meldrum, a Full Professor of Anatomy & Anthropology with a Ph.D. in Anatomical Sciences, devoted his career to the study of human bipedalism and the possibility of a mystery primate known as Bigfoot. His rigorous evaluation of footprint evidence set a high standard for scientific inquiry in a field often clouded with speculation. As Skeptic Brian Dunning once remarked, “The work of responsible scientists like Dr. Meldrum is exactly what true skeptics should be asking the Bigfoot community for, not criticizing him for it.” In this conversation, Dr. Meldrum shares thoughtful insights into why physical remains have proven so elusive, the limitations of DNA evidence to date, a detailed analysis of the famous Patterson-Gimlin film, and what paths future research might take to finally address this enduring mystery. His clarity, objectivity, and commitment to science made him one of The Captain's greatest academic heroes—and his voice will be deeply missed.

This is a preview — for the full episode, subscribe: https://newmodels.io https://patreon.com/newmodels https://newmodels.substack.com Our guest is Orit Halpern: co-author of The Smartness Mandate (MIT Press, 2023); author of Beautiful Data: A History of Vision and Reason since 1945 (Duke, 2014); and Full Professor and Chair of Digital Cultures at Technische Universität Dresden. Often in discussions about machine learning and smartness, AI is presented as the natural path of human progress, an evolutionary – almost biological – development that emerged out of human communication systems and that has the potential to far exceed them. But as Orit argues, these technologies are neither inevitable nor inhuman. Rather they are the result of a particular intersection of neoliberal theory, psychology, and computer science that generated the economic incentives, political will, and public desire for AI to exist in the specific form we have now. On this episode, Orit animates the technological imaginary that gave rise to our culture of AI, asking, among other things, how a highly adaptive, machine-learning enabled world changes the terms of political possibility and human revolution.

Hollywood and the Media Truth About Drug Gangs and Police. Special Episode. The portrayal of law enforcement and criminal organizations in Hollywood has long shaped public perception. However, the media's representation of police work and the realities of drug gangs often diverge from the truth. Dr. Stephen Morreale, a retired DEA agent, college professor, and host of The Cop Doc Podcast, is dedicated to dispelling these myths. He sheds light on the overwhelming violence committed by organized drug gangs and the misconceptions surrounding law enforcement. The story on this episode of the "Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast", is available on their website for free in addition to Apple Podcasts and Spotify, as well as through other podcast platforms. The Reality of Drug Gangs in America Hollywood often glamorizes or oversimplifies the operations of drug gangs, but the truth is far more complex and violent. The United States is home to numerous gangs deeply involved in drug trafficking and organized crime. Groups like MS-13, Nuestra Familia, Surenos, Crips, Bloods, Latin Kings, and 1% Motorcycle Clubs have an extensive presence across the country. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), as of 2014, there were approximately 33,000 gangs in the U.S., classified into street gangs, motorcycle gangs, and prison gangs. While some of these organizations are multi-ethnic, many operate along racial lines, restricting membership based on ethnicity.

At least 23 gangs operate at a national level, spanning multiple states and drug markets. Moreover, law enforcement has identified connections between transnational drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) and several street and prison gangs. Mexican DTOs, such as the Federation, the Gulf Cartel, the Juárez Cartel, and the Tijuana Cartel, leverage U.S. based Hispanic street gangs and prison gangs for drug smuggling, distribution, and enforcement. These DTOs avoid direct involvement in retail drug distribution, instead utilizing gang members to minimize their exposure to law enforcement.

The Role of the DEA and Law Enforcement, Hollywood and the Media Truth About Drug Gangs and Police. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is at the forefront of combating these criminal enterprises. Its mission is to enforce U.S. controlled substances laws, dismantle drug trafficking organizations, and reduce the availability of illicit drugs in domestic and international markets. Dr. Morreale, who served in law enforcement for 30 years, played a crucial role in these efforts, retiring as Assistant Special Agent in Charge for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Investigations. During his 20-year tenure with the DEA, he worked on financial investigations, asset forfeiture, and enforcement operations targeting major drug networks. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms In addition to his work with the DEA, Dr. Morreale was instrumental in advancing community policing efforts. In 1990, he co-founded the New England Community Police Partnership, a program that trained thousands of police officers and community members to foster better relationships between law enforcement and the public. He educated future law enforcement professionals as Chair and Full Professor of Criminal Justice at Worcester State University.

Hollywood often focuses on dramatic shootouts, rogue cops, and quick case resolutions, but the truth is that real policing involves extensive investigations, intelligence gathering, and strategic planning. While media outlets and streaming services like Apple Podcasts and Spotify provide platforms for entertainment and also facts, it is crucial for the public to seek out factual information.

“Procurement is going to make a transformative leap. It may be in a year. It may be in three years. But it's going to happen. So start experimenting.” – Remko Van Hoek, Full Professor of Practice SCM, Executive Director CSCMP Supply Chain Hall of Fame, hosted by Walton, University of Arkansas ­- Sam M. Walton College of Business It's time to make procurement fun again.  That's what Remko Van Hoek, Full Professor of Practice SCM, Executive Director CSCMP Supply Chain Hall of Fame, hosted by Walton, University of Arkansas ­- Sam M. Walton College of Business, told Philip Ideson when they sat down together at DPW Amsterdam 2024. In this episode, Remko shares insights from the 10X Procurement survey he led in conjunction with DPW, and what it reveals about how AI and digital transformation are injecting opportunity, value, and, yes, even fun back into procurement.  The survey also uncovered a troubling ‘inspiration to action' gap between procurement's AI readiness and their ability to successfully execute at the pace required by the rest of the business. Along with discussing digital transformation pressures, Philip and Remko also explore: What 10X growth actually looks like in practice and how procurement can take the idea of exponential growth and turn that into tangible, bottom-line results for the business What it means to be “digitally literate” and why focusing only on technology is actually not the right approach to digital transformation The fundamentals procurement needs to have in place to 10X their growth and impact in 2025  Links: Remko Van Hoek on LinkedIn Listen to “Integrating Blockchain into Procurement” with Remko Van Hoek Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube

Hello, I hope you're doing well. Many people don't realize that it's nearly impossible to build wealth without stable relationships - with family, business partners and with yourself.  This is why we've created the first ever Black Financial Therapy Department, so we can address mental health in our journey to build Black Economics. Dr Alicia Watkins, my wife and a licensed therapist/Full Professor of Social Work, is hosting sessions on Mental Health (tomorrow) and also on relationships (tonight), that you can sign up for below.  The private meeting fee of $199 is waived because you are here, and you can use the infromation below to join her.   To join Dr Alicia tonight at 9 pm EST, you can register here and also text the word Love to the number 87948 to be notified for future sessions.  Secondly, I spent our Money in the Morning Millionaire Training camp dissecting the economic theories behind the public scrutiny of Jay-Z and Diddy.  While I have a hard time believing that these two men are completely innocent, I thought a good economic lesson might be to explore financial theories regarding why it can be difficult for prominent black men in hip hop to protect their economic status. You can watch the training here. Please take care and have a wonderful day. Sincerely,Dr Boyce 

In this episode, Kyle interviews Geoff Bathje, Ph.D.: licensed psychologist, researcher, former Full Professor, and co-founder of Sana Healing Collective, a Chicago-based non-profit focusing on ketamine-assisted therapy and psychedelic integration. He talks about what he feels is one of the largest factors in our mental health crisis: the individualistic and neoliberal lens Western culture has placed on mental health and how it neglects the massive systemic and relational factors that are affecting us all. He digs into how we got so alienated and how psychedelics and non-ordinary states of consciousness can not only help us think critically and solve problems, but also move us out of this individualistic framework of healing and more into a collective one. How do we use psychedelics to fix our relationships and find our community? He discusses: The challenge of knowing when to work for relationships and when to just end them, especially in the afterglow of a big experience Group ketamine experience vs. individual, how groups can help facilitators find patterns, and how ketamine works with somatic therapy His paper, “Psychedelic integration: An analysis of the concept and its practice” and his visual model of integration showing the different domains of our personal experience What he thinks will happen next in drug development: Will therapy be left out after Lykos' failure with MDMA? The importance of moving beyond aggressive criticism and moving into world building and more!  For links, head to the show notes page.
