Podcasts about Genetics

Kathryn Paige Harden (Original Sin On the Genetics of Vice, the Problem of Blame, and the Future of Forgiveness) is a psychologist, professor, and behavioral geneticist. Kathryn joins the Armchair Expert to discuss why psychology is not a solved problem, studying the essential question of why we do things we don't want to do, and how her religious upbringing was fundamentally at odds with her desire to study psychology. Kathryn and Dax talk about what living in a culture that embraces the concept of original sin means for our morality, genetic predictors of misdemeanor versus felony behavior, and our active human inclination to break stuff. Kathryn explains her belief that holding each other accountable is not a supernatural condition but a social one, why we can aim to be better in our institutions than in our worst moments, and the scientific fact that there's no evolution without diversity.Check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds: https://www.allstate.com/Head to turbotax.com to find a store location near you and get matched with a TurboTax expert — with real-time updates in the iOS app.This episode is sponsored by AppleTV.

There's an idea bubbling up in medicine called the “digital twin.” The concept is to take personal health data like genetics, blood test results, tissue samples, MRI scans, and family history, and create a digital model of a patient that can be used to predict how a treatment might work for them. Think personalized medicine supercharged by AI.  For example, cancer researchers are working on models that would create radiation and chemotherapy treatment plans based on the specifics of a patient's tumor. But these models aren't ready for the clinic yet, and with so much patient data involved, privacy concerns abound.  Host Flora Lichtman talks with Caroline Chung, a radiation oncologist at the forefront of digital twin research. Guest: Dr. Caroline Chung is a radiation oncologist and the co-director of the Institute for Data Science Oncology at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center.

* Two Doctors: are Better than One This week Fred Williams and Doug McBurney welcome back Dr. Pete Moore, who helped us rethink relativity last summer and, for the first time Clifford Denton, PhD, who began his career as a pilot in the Royal Air Force, studied mathematics at the University of Cambridge, taught mathematics and computer studies, engaged in government funded research and was awarded a PhD at Oxford. Dr. Denton has been in Christian ministry for over 40 years in support of the Bible and home schools in regard to God's creation.   * The Case Against Einstein: Pete Moore discusses Menahem Simhony's EPOLA theory, measuring time and absolute time, the Michelson Morley Experiment, violations of the alleged speed of light constant and Isaac Newton's warning against arriving at "unusual and purely mathematical expressions" that "strain the sacred writings", (meaning they might just contradict Bible).   * Absolute: Dr. Denton takes us from the speed of sound through the speed of light from his paper: "The Passage of Light in the Universe - Absolute or Relative Motion", (published in Volume 37 of the Journal of Creation). And stay tuned for more "simple math and equations" that support the absolute nature of time and motion from Dr. Denton!   * Sponsor a Show! Go to our store, buy some biblically oriented science material and sponsor a show! * In The Beginning: Pre-order the 9th edition of Walt Brown's amazing, enlightening, biblically sound book explaining why Earth, (and the solar system) look the way they do!

In this episode of MiCannaCast, we sit down with Jake Greba— founder of Midnight Roots, longtime legacy cultivator, edible pioneer, and music producer Bass Owl — for a deep, wide-ranging conversation about cannabis culture, genetics, medicine, creativity, and the journey from underground roots to the modern legal market.Jake shares powerful personal stories about growing up in a cannabis family, using the plant to help loved ones through serious medical conditions, navigating the pre-legal era, and building a respected brand rooted in authenticity rather than hype.We also dive into strain selection philosophy, terpene appreciation, why THC percentage doesn't equal quality, the dilution of genetics in today's market, and how cannabis connects to memory, ritual, and community.Beyond cannabis, the conversation explores Jake's parallel life in music — touring, producing bass music, and the creative mindset that links art and cultivation.If you care about legacy cannabis culture, real genetics, meaningful consumption, or the intersection of creativity and plant medicine, this episode delivers one of the deepest conversations we've had on the show.

Caleb Granger explains that mesenchymal stem cells should be called medicinal signaling cells, as they secrete healing signals through exosomes, which are tiny particles that facilitate cell communication. Caleb highlights the benefits of exosomes in regenerative therapies, such as treating post-oncological prostatectomy erectile dysfunction and muscle wasting during chemotherapy. He also discusses the limitations of stem cell transplants, noting that the body often flushes out transplanted cells and that PRP therapy, which involves concentrating native growth factors, can create inflammation but lacks sufficient healing signals. Key takeaways Exosomes are more effective than stem cells for regenerative medicine because they contain healing signals without triggering inflammatory responses Placental and umbilical mesenchymal stem cell exosomes are the most potent sources of regenerative signals As we age, our regenerative capacity decreases (from ~150-200 million stem cells as teenagers to ~30-50 million by age 50) Exosomes can help regenerate tissue, reduce inflammation, and treat various conditions including orthopedic injuries, neuropathies, and organ dysfunction Unlike traditional pharmaceuticals, exosomes help the body heal itself rather than masking symptoms Exosomes are WADA, USADA, NCAA, and Olympic compliant for athletes To learn more, visit theapexmedical.com and follow on Instagram @apexregenerative Visit ConfidenceThroughHealth.com to find discounts to some of our favorite products.Follow me via All In Health and Wellness on Facebook or Instagram.Find my books on Amazon: No More Sugar Coating: Finding Your Happiness in a Crowded World and Confidence Through Health: Live the Healthy Lifestyle God DesignedProduction credit: Social Media Cowboys

Clinics are feeling the pressure. And one year after the PGT class action lawsuits, the ripple effects are still unfolding.We're back with another Fertility Field Overview, and this one looks at what's happening across patient finance, IVF benefits and third-party reproduction, genetics and diagnostics, and the evolving self-pay landscape.We discuss:Whether IVF benefits managers are helping clinics (or squeezing them)Which lending institutions and loan programs are positioned to rise to the topWhy some say the third-party IVF experience is getting worseWhat's changed in genetics and diagnostics since the PGT lawsuitHow clinics are reducing workload through at-home testing solutionsHow fertility compares to the broader self-pay healthcare marketDive deeper into any of these topics through our Inside Reproductive Health Digest Articles:Patient Finance, Third Party IVF, Genetics, Diagnostics

This week's stories: Healthy Diets That Offset "Bad Genes" A major UK Biobank study of over 100,000 people found that following any one of five healthy dietary patterns was associated with up to 3 extra years of life — and the benefit held regardless of genetic predisposition to longevity. Your DNA is not an excuse. The macro pattern matters more than the perfect protocol. • Sources: -https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.ads7559 -https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12904179 -https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/eat-well-live-longer-study-5-healthy-diet-plans-longevity Micro-Habits in Sleep, Activity, and Diet That Extend Life Researchers built a composite "SPAN" score combining sleep, movement, sedentary time, and diet quality and found that small improvements across all four — we're talking minutes per day — cut mortality risk by up to 64% when stacked together.

Choosing a dog shouldn't feel like a coin toss. We dive straight into the adopt vs shop debate with a clear lens on temperament, genetics, and the everyday realities that keep dogs safe and families sane. With Danielle's deep rescue experience and our training background, we unpack why reputable breeders focus on stable nerves, why ethical programs include take-back policies, and how unregulated backyard breeding fuels shelters with dogs bred for looks instead of behavior.From there, we get tactical. You'll hear a step-by-step plan for bringing a new dog home the safe way: slip lead on indoors, crate for meals and rest, three days of quiet decompression, and zero dog parks. For multi-dog homes, we share the system we use with client dogs—barriers, parallel walks, place work, and genuine neutrality—before any face-to-face play. You'll learn how to read early red flags through a crate door, prevent resource guarding, and avoid the common mistake of throwing a new dog into the deep end on day one.We also address the hard truths. Genetics set limits; training adds skills inside those limits. We examine bite risk, why some dogs look “bad” in shelters but relax at home, and when it's ethical to say a dog isn't safe for a specific family. We push back on the idea that love fixes everything, showing how clear boundaries and fair corrections can actually protect relationships and keep dogs out of shelters. Whether you're eyeing a rescue or interviewing breeders, you'll get practical filters: what to ask, what to avoid, and how to pick a temperament that matches your life.If you're ready to choose a dog with your eyes open—and set them up to thrive from day one—this conversation gives you the blueprint. Listen, share with a friend who's dog shopping, and if it helped, subscribe and leave a review so more people find the show.Visit us on the website here to see what we've got going on and how you can join our pack of good dogs and owners.

In this episode, Dr. Yishan sits down with Dr. Kendall Stewart — a former skull-based surgeon who has spent the past two decades pioneering a data-driven approach to functional medicine, genetics, and neuroimmune health. Together, they explore the biological roots of sleep struggles that behavioral advice alone often can't fix: neurotransmitter imbalances, genetic variants, and inflammation in the nervous system. Dr. Stewart breaks down how genes governing GABA production, melatonin receptor sensitivity, dopamine methylation, and adenosine signaling can silently undermine sleep — and how targeted nutritional support can restore the balance that makes the brain ready for rest.Dr. Stewart also shares remarkable insights from his work with thousands of patients, including children on the autism spectrum, revealing how lessons from neuroimmune research are shaping a new model of precision sleep medicine. He explains why psychological and behavioral sleep therapies work dramatically better when the brain is first supported biologically, and introduces accessible tools — including at-home genetic panels through his company Helix Revolution — that are making personalized care available without a doctor's visit. If you've ever felt that generic sleep advice just doesn't apply to you, this conversation will show you why — and what to do about it.Show Notes: deepintosleep.co/episode/ep209-kendall-stewartRESOURCESAre you so sleepy that you cannot focus?

Synopsis: Addiction is often misunderstood as a failure of willpower—but emerging science increasingly shows it may be deeply rooted in biology. In this episode of Biotech 2050, recorded during JPM 2026 in San Francisco, host Alok Tayi speaks with Cary Claiborne, CEO of Adial Pharmaceuticals, about a new precision-medicine approach to tackling one of the world's most widespread and undertreated conditions: alcohol use disorder. Cary shares the personal and professional journey that brought him into addiction medicine—from a career in finance at global corporations to helping take pioneering biotech companies public and ultimately leading Adial's mission to address addiction through science. After losing a close family member to addiction, Cary became determined to focus his work on diseases where innovation could create meaningful societal impact. The discussion explores Adial's genetically targeted therapy, designed to reduce alcohol cravings without requiring patients to stop drinking entirely. Cary explains how their repurposed low-dose therapy, paired with a simple cheek-swab diagnostic test, could help identify the patients most likely to benefit—bringing a precision-medicine framework to addiction treatment, an area that has seen little therapeutic innovation in more than two decades. Alok and Cary also examine the broader landscape of addiction science, the societal costs of untreated alcohol use disorder, and how AI-driven clinical simulations are helping design smarter Phase III trials. Looking ahead, Cary discusses how this scientific platform could expand into other impulse-driven conditions, including opioid addiction, gambling, and compulsive behaviors. It's a compelling conversation about precision psychiatry, addiction medicine, and the future of neuropsychiatric drug development. Biography: Cary Claiborne was named Chief Executive Officer of Adial Pharmaceuticals in August 2022 after previously being appointed Chief Operating Officer in December 2021 and being named to the Board of Directors. Mr. Claiborne previously served as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and board member of Indivior PLC, a publicly traded specialty pharmaceutical company developing medicines to treat addiction and serious mental illnesses. Among his accomplishments, Mr. Claiborne led the company's spin off from its then parent company, Reckitt Benckiser, to become an independent, listed company. While at Indivior, he established and oversaw corporate reporting, internal audit, tax, treasury, external audit, and information technology. Prior to joining Indivior, Mr. Claiborne served as the CFO of Sucampo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a global biopharmaceutical company, which was later sold to Mallinckrodt. Before joining Sucampo, Mr. Claiborne served as CFO and Corporate Secretary of Osiris Therapeutics, Inc., and oversaw corporate finance during the company's initial public offering. He graduated from Rutgers University with a B.A. in Business Administration and from Villanova University with an M.B.A. and was a National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) Governance Fellow.

View This Week's Show NotesStart Your 7-Day Trial to Mobility CoachJoin Our Free Weekly Newsletter: The AmbushWhat if the biggest predictor of dementia isn't your genes — but your metabolic health?In this episode, neuroscientist and performance coach Dr. Tommy Wood reveals why blood sugar regulation and blood pressure are more powerful predictors of Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline than amyloid plaques or even genetics like ApoE4.For decades, Alzheimer's has been framed as either a genetic lottery or the inevitable buildup of amyloid in the brain. But emerging research shows that metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance, and vascular health may play a far greater role in determining long-term brain outcomes.Instead of focusing on fear, this conversation delivers a practical blueprint for building cognitive reserve and “cognitive headroom” — the brain's ability to stay resilient, adaptable, and high-performing as you age.You'll learn why crossword puzzles aren't enough, how high-intensity exercise and resistance training stimulate brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), why lactate may act like “Miracle-Gro” for your neurons, and how to interpret early warning signs like subjective brain fog.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy Alzheimer's isn't just about amyloid plaquesThe powerful link between blood sugar and cognitive declineHow genetics (like ApoE4) increase risk — but don't seal your fateWhat “cognitive headroom” means and how to build itWhy high-intensity exercise may act as Miracle-Gro for the brainThe surprising role of resistance training in brain healthWhat subjective brain fog might be telling youHow menopause affects cognition — and what's reversibleWhy boredom and focus matter more than we thinkThe kinds of skills you should keep practicing as you ageFor women navigating perimenopause and menopause, Dr. Wood explains what cognitive changes are hormonally driven, what's reversible, and how to protect long-term brain health.Whether your goal is preventing Alzheimer's disease, improving focus and processing speed, or becoming a cognitive “superager,” this episode provides evidence-based strategies to help you build a brain that is robust, metabolically healthy, and built to last.Key Highlights: (00:00) – Brain Health & Cognitive Longevity Intro(00:35) – Brain Evolution & Survival Mechanisms(02:53) – Diabetes & Alzheimer's Disease Link(07:31) – Genetic Risk & Dementia Family History(11:32) – Expanding Brain Capacity & Headroom(15:08) – Cognitive Reserve & Brain Resilience(19:55) – Preventing Age-Related Cognitive Decline(23:00) – Exercise Data for Brain Health(26:16) – Best Exercises for Cognitive Function(35:11) – Amyloid Plaques & Alzheimer's Pathology(38:00) – Amyloid-Targeting Drugs & Treatments(40:31) – Subjective Cognitive Decline Measures(45:04) – Testing & Measuring Brain Performance(49:58) – Menopause & Female Brain Health(56:10) – Aging Brain, Wisdom & Intelligence(1:05:00) – Cognitive Processing Speed & Aging(1:07:07) – Benefits of Boredom for the Brain(1:12:17) – Book Recommendations for Mental GrowthConnect with Dr. Tommy WoodWebsite | Substack | InstagramPre-Order The Stimulated Mind for tons of extra perks!Huge thanks to our sponsors, Momentous, Vitality, and LMNT.

Many people struggling with OCD and anxiety spend years searching for the root cause. Is it genetics, brain chemistry, past trauma, or something deeper?In this episode, we explore what causes OCD & anxiety by breaking down four different frameworks often used to explain these conditions: genetics and environment, biochemical factors, emotional patterns, and deeper psychological or spiritual processes.Understanding these layers can help you shift how you approach recovery and identify the level where real transformation happens.If you've ever wondered why intrusive thoughts, panic, or chronic anxiety keep returning despite trying different treatments, this episode will give you a new perspective on the mechanisms behind fear and how true healing may occur.

In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and neurologist Dr. Majid Fotuhi discuss building an "Invincible Brain." Challenging the myth that cognitive decline is inevitable, Dr. Fotuhi outlines five pillars—exercise, sleep, nutrition, stress management, and brain training, proven to increase brain volume and neuroplasticity. The discussion highlights how racket sports and balance training activate the cerebellum to boost overall function and reduce Alzheimer's risk. By consistently challenging the nervous system, you can shift the aging paradigm, achieving mental sharpness and vitality well into your 80s and 90s.

There are adaptive reasons for this.Haplogroups & adaptation: Tropical lineages tightly couple energy production for efficiency; northern ones uncouple to generate heat.Heteroplasmy & aging: Mixed mutant and normal mitochondria accumulate in cells, eroding energy in high-demand tissues like brain and heart.Bioenergetics in disease: Many common conditions, from Parkinson's to cancer, stem from mitochondrial-nuclear interactions rather than nuclear genes alone.Ketogenic diets: High-fat intake fuels mitochondrial beta-oxidation, which may compensate for brain energy deficits in epilepsy and bipolar disorder.Warburg effect: Cancer cells shift to glycolysis to prioritize biosynthetic building blocks over maximal ATP production.Modern mismatches: Global travel pairs ancestral mtDNA with mismatched diets and climates, raising risks for metabolic dysfunction.ABOUT THE GUEST: Douglas Wallace, PhD is a geneticist and evolutionary biologist who has studied mitochondria for over 50 years.

WELCOME BACK TO EPISODE 223 OF THE 280 PLUS PODCAST

Some of us get chills from music, movies or art. And others... never do. Why is that?

Your Childhood Wrote Your Leadership Code (Now Rewrite It)   In this episode of Richer Soul, Rocky Lalvani sits down with psychologist and leadership expert Nik Kinley for a conversation that connects the dots between childhood programming, leadership behavior, money mindset, and performance under pressure. Nik shares research showing leaders spend about 72% of their day running on "automatic," which helps explain why even smart, trained executives can repeat the same patterns, especially when uncertainty is high and time is short. You'll hear why Nik believes we've shifted into an era of "structural uncertainty," how the "power trap" affects empathy and truth-telling, and a simple tool you can use immediately: communicating in probabilities (like "I'm 60% sure") to invite candor and surface risk earlier. If you care about leading with clarity, improving decision-making, and understanding the invisible forces shaping your relationship with money and authority, this episode delivers.   Learning insights The "72% Autopilot" reality: Leaders report spending roughly 72% of their day operating automatically relying on instincts more than deliberate thought.  Why learning doesn't translate into behavior: Under workplace speed/pressure, the thoughtful "HBR leader" image breaks down and defaults take over.  Genetics plays a bigger role than people expect: Nik cites research suggesting aspects of self-regulation/emotional expressiveness can be 60–70% genetically inherited (on average).  Your conflict style has a default setting: Many people lean toward one of three conflict stances, smooth it over, pull away/observe, or go in swinging, often shaped before school.  Uncertainty changes brains and behavior: Nik argues uncertainty increases threat sensitivity and cognitive load, making instinctive reactions more likely.  From volatility to "structural uncertainty": Post-COVID, Nik suggests uncertainty is more "baked in," compounding misalignment and creating strategic drift in organizations.  The Power Trap effect: Leadership roles can create distance (less truth reaches you) and boost ego (more overconfidence risk).  A practical tool for candor: Speaking in probabilities (e.g., "I'm 60% sure…") encourages others to voice uncertainty and risks earlier.   Why this conversation matters Most leaders think they're making conscious choices, but Nik Kinley shares research suggesting leaders spend about 72% of their day running on automatic, especially when they're moving fast and don't have time to think.  That "autopilot" is often built from childhood programming, family scripts, and even inherited temperament, which means your biggest leadership patterns can show up most strongly under pressure, exactly when it matters most.  Nik also explains why leadership has become harder in a world of structural uncertainty, and how power itself can quietly reduce empathy and distort feedback, making it easier for leaders to drift into average without realizing it.   Money learning Nik's money story is a clear example of how early experiences can hardwire financial behavior for decades. He describes growing up with "Victorian values" through his grandparents—saving, security, and risk aversion—and then moving into a phase of debt and struggle when he left home and self-funded university. That early mix created a relationship with money that wasn't just practical, but emotional: debt felt like shame, and security became a core driver. Over time, that programming showed up as a strong preference to protect the family's base first—avoiding big financial risks, and only becoming more open to investing once the mortgage was paid off and there was truly "extra" capital to work with. The conversation also highlights that attitudes toward investing are partly cultural: in some places trading is normalized, while in the UK investing can carry an undertone of "gambling," which reinforces caution even when the math might suggest otherwise.   Key takeaways This episode makes the case that leadership isn't mainly about what you know, it's about what you default to, especially under pressure. Nik shares that leaders report spending about 72% of their day on "automatic," which explains why good intentions and training often don't translate into changed behavior at work. He warns that most leaders don't flame out—they slowly drift into average through small, repeated missteps that are hard to notice in the moment. In today's post-COVID environment, where uncertainty may be structural rather than occasional, those automatic patterns become even more dominant, so the job is not just agility, but maintaining strategic grip and resisting drift over time. Add to that the "power trap": authority naturally creates distance (people filter the truth) and boosts ego (overconfidence), making it harder to get clean information and stay empathetic. A practical antidote Nik offers is disarmingly simple: communicate in probabilities, be clear without pretending certainty, because calibrated uncertainty can invite others to speak up, share risks, and tell you what they're really seeing.   Guest Bio Nik is a London-based psychologist, psychotherapist, leadership consultant and coach with over 35 years' experience, specialising in assessment and behaviour change. His career spans commercial roles, senior HR positions at BP and Barclays, consulting with YSC and Accenture, and a decade working as a forensic psychotherapist in prisons. He thus has the unique experience of having worked with royalty, criminals, CEOs, politicians and children. He has assessed over 1,500 senior leaders worldwide, coached CEOs and leadership teams across sectors, and led global culture-change programmes in some of the worlds largest companies. An author and media commentator, interviewed by the likes of the BBC and The Economist, he has for the last 12 years led a research programme that has resulted in nine books, the latest of which is The Power Trap (2025).   Links Website: https://nikkinley.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/nikkinley Substack: https://nikkinley.substack.com   If this episode helped you spot your own "automatic" leadership patterns, please: Follow/Subscribe to Richer Soul so you don't miss the next conversation Leave a rating + review (it helps more people find the show) Share this episode with one person, a founder, leader, or teammate, who's navigating pressure and uncertainty right now   #ExecutiveLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #LeadershipPsychology #DecisionMaking #StrategicLeadership #WorkplaceCulture #OrganizationalPsychology #ChangeManagement #RiskManagement #CommunicationSkills   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

Grass-fed beef always has yellow fat… right?Not always.In this episode of The Meat Dudes, we chat with returning guest Andrew Shirley of River Valley Wagyu (Olympia, Washington) — a 100% grass-fed, no-grain-ever, full-blood Wagyu rancher — to break down what “grass-fed” actually means and why the yellow-fat test can be misleading.We dig into what really drives fat color (forage, beta carotene, age, breed, and region), why Washington grass-fed can look different than Florida, and how “terroir” shows up in beef the same way it does in wine.We also cover:• Can grass-fed Wagyu consistently hit prime-level marbling?• Genetics vs feed — and why marbling genes matter more on grass• Regenerative / adaptive multi-paddock grazing (AMP) explained• Why the grass-fed vs grain-fed debate gets oversimplified• Favorite cuts, roasts, and solving the “whole cow” problemIf you care about transparency, flavor, nutrition, and understanding beef beyond the labels — this one's for you.Stay meat curious.Find River Valley Wagyu: rivervalleywagyu.com

Dr. Kathryn Paige Harden is a psychologist and behavioural geneticist, Professor of Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin and an author. Are people born evil, or does evil emerge from circumstance? While we tend to blame genetics for humanity's darkest behaviors, science and psychology suggest a far more complicated picture. If biology, environment, and experience all shape behavior, how should society judge, or punish, those who may never have had full control over who they became? Expect to learn what Kathryn learned from her first 4 million-person study, what the evolutionary roots of aggression, dominance, and impulsivity are, if there is a heritability of antisocial behaviour, why punishment is a useful tool for responding to harm, what Kathryn makes of the looksmaxxing movement, and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/deals⁠ Get a free bottle of D3K2, an AG1 Welcome Kit, and more when you first subscribe at https://ag1.info/modernwisdom New pricing since recording: Function is now just $365, plus get $25 off at https://functionhealth.com/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Get 35% off your first subscription on the best supplements from Momentous at https://livemomentous.com/modernwisdom Extra Stuff: Get my free reading list of 100 books to read before you die: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/books⁠ Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic: ⁠https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom⁠ Check out Kathryn's book: https://tinyurl.com/msd53w6s Episodes You Might Enjoy: #577 - David Goggins - This Is How To Master Your Life: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/43hv6y59⁠ #712 - Dr Jordan Peterson - How To Destroy Your Negative Beliefs: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/2rtz7avf⁠ #700 - Dr Andrew Huberman - The Secret Tools To Hack Your Brain: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/3ccn5vkp⁠ - Get In Touch: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chriswillx⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://www.twitter.com/chriswillx⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/modernwisdompodcast⁠ Email: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/contact⁠ - Learn more about your ad choices.

American chestnut trees once towered over the landscape, dominating forests in parts of the eastern United States. But in the late 1800s, a fungal blight virtually wiped them out across the country. Chestnut restoration scientist Jared Westbrook tells Host Ira Flatow how new genetic work could speed up efforts to breed fungal resistance into hybrid chestnuts and create a heartier chestnut population.  Then, author Hanna Lewis introduces Ira to the concept of miniforests, self-sustaining native forest ecosystems on a tiny footprint, like an empty lot or a schoolyard. The planting method, developed by botanist Akira Miyawaki, can help “rewild” small parcels of land by jump-starting forest development. Read our full story, The Miniforest Movement Gains Ground In The U.S. Guests: Dr. Jared Westbrook is Director of Science for the American Chestnut Foundation in Asheville, North Carolina. Hanna Lewis is the author of the book Mini-Forest Revolution: Using the Miyawaki Method to Rapidly Rewild the World.

In this episode, I sit down with behavioral geneticist and professor Dr. Kathryn Paige Harden to talk about what behavioral genetics can actually tell us about our kids—and what it can't. We unpack the reality of psychiatric risk, family history, and the limits of control, and why genes are not destiny. We discuss how thousands of tiny genetic differences shape mental health, why diagnoses are messier than we think, and how warmth and firm boundaries still matter more than any “magic bullet.”I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

An estimated 500,000 people are diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in the United States each year, but the causes and mechanisms of the condition remain a neurological mystery. A recent study looked at the role of variants in a gene called APOE in Alzheimer's, and found that while it's not a simple determinant of developing the disease, that one gene seems to play a significant role in promoting disease risk. Researchers hope work like this could point to new areas to study and even potential treatments. Epidemiologist Dylan Williams joins Host Ira Flatow to explain the findings and discuss the challenges in tracing a complex disease to its roots. Guest: Dr. Dylan Williams is a principal research fellow in molecular and genetic epidemiology at University College London.
