The power of empathy for organizational success is not just proven in all the data. Neuroscience backs up our human need to connect and form relationships. But why does empathic communication lead to better business results, improved wellness, decreased burnout, and better workforce retention? We explore that today with Dr. Helen Riess. Persuaded by the belief that empathy can transform healthcare, Dr. Riess founded Empathetics to meet medicine's most pressing challenges. We talk about whether empathy can be taught or if it's an inborn trait, the evidence for how empathy improves measurable outcomes, and what shifts we need to make to more fully bring empathy into work. Dr. Riess shares how the brain works on empathy and how it looks different for different people of all abilities. Finally, we discuss the importance of getting people into the right seat to lead with empathy and why self-regulation skills are critical to leadership success.To access the episode transcript, please scroll down below.Listen and discover:Why empathy is a key survival trait of the human species.Effective shifts to bring more personal compassion, kindness, and empathy to the workplace.The best ways to start your day for effective, empathetic leadership.Advice for dealing with people at different stages and levels of empathy.Why practicing empathy at work spills over into other aspects of your life.

Many psychiatric labels—like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia—can obscure underlying biology, and symptom checklists often fail to explain or heal what's really going on. Emerging evidence reframes mental illness as a problem of brain energy, mitochondria, and inflammation—shaped by insulin signaling, circadian rhythm disruption, the gut–brain axis, toxins, infections, and nutrient status. Metabolic interventions such as ketogenic nutrition, already established for epilepsy, show promise for rebalancing neurotransmitters, lowering neuroinflammation, and improving overall brain function. With depression now a leading cause of disability, shifting from “manage the symptoms” to “fix the biology” could dramatically improve outcomes where standard drugs fall short. In this episode, Dr. Christopher Palmer, Dr. Todd LePine, Dr. Iain Campbell and I explore how rethinking mental illness as a metabolic and inflammatory disorder of the brain—rather than just a chemical imbalance—could transform the treatment and prevention of conditions like depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Dr. Chris Palmer is a psychiatrist and researcher working at the interface of metabolism and mental health. He is the Director of the Department of Postgraduate and Continuing Education at McLean Hospital and an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. For over 25 years, he has held leadership roles in psychiatric education, conducted research, and worked with people who have treatment-resistant mental illnesses. He has been pioneering the use of the medical ketogenic diet in the treatment of psychiatric disorders - conducting research in this area, treating patients, writing, and speaking around the world on this topic. More broadly, he is interested in the roles of metabolism and metabolic interventions on brain health. Dr. Todd LePine graduated from Dartmouth Medical School and is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, specializing in Integrative Functional Medicine. He is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner. Prior to joining The UltraWellness Center, he worked as a physician at Canyon Ranch in Lenox, MA, for 10 years. Dr. LePine's focus at The UltraWellness Center is to help his patients achieve optimal health and vitality by restoring the natural balance to both the mind and the body. His areas of interest include optimal aging, bio-detoxification, functional gastrointestinal health, systemic inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and the neurobiology of mood and cognitive disorders.  Dr. lain Campbell is the first academic research fellow to specialise in Metabolic Psychiatry as the Baszucki Research Fellow in Metabolic Psychiatry at the University of Edinburgh. He has a PhD in Global Health from the University of Edinburgh and is a principal investigator on a pilot trial of a ketogenic diet for bipolar disorder. He is a workstream lead and co-investigator on the first publicly funded research hub for Metabolic Psychiatry, the UKRI Medical Research Council Hub for Metabolic Psychiatry at the University of Edinburgh. His research in metabolic psychiatry has been published in Nature press journals Molecular Psychiatry and Translational Psychiatry and presented at Mayo Clinic Grand Rounds and The Royal College of Psychiatrists International Congress.  This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.

Joining me is Dr. Stuart Ablon, a psychologist, Harvard Medical School professor, founder and director of Think:Kids at Massachusetts General Hospital, and author of several books, including Changeable: How Collaborative Problem Solving Changes Lives at Home, at School, and at Work.   Together we explore:   Why kids' struggles are more about lagging skills than lack of motivation. The importance of empathy, co-regulation, and relationship-building in reducing conflict. The 3 “plans” parents can choose from when kids aren't meeting expectations—and how to use them effectively. How Collaborative Problem Solving offers a structured yet compassionate alternative to “tough love” or “gentle parenting.” Practical ways to use this approach proactively and in the heat of the moment. How practicing this method not only improves behavior, but also fosters resilience, flexibility, and stronger parent–child bonds.   Whether you're a parent, teacher, or clinician, this conversation offers practical tools and a fresh perspective to help you support kids with understanding, structure, and collaboration   LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

We are back in our fifth season on the Gut Doctor podcast and are going to launch this year with systemic mastocytosis.

This book will change your life, as an IBS patient. A Unique, Pivotal and “out of the box” Book about Irritable Bowel Syndrome. The author of this book is Dr. Mohammad Farivar, an exceptional gastroenterologist with extensive expertise in the management of inflammatory bowel disease. He has served as a Professor at Harvard Medical School, Boston University, and Tufts University. Millions of people in the United States are suffering from IBS like symptoms. They are being diagnosed and treated as IBS. The purpose of this book is to help these patients figure out what is causing their symptoms and take care of it. For the majority of them diet is the culprit and by recognizing and avoiding it one can put an end to future suffering. In this book, more than 40 reasons are blamed and several real life examples illustrate how difficult it may be to find the cause if you are not knowledgeable about the pathophysiology of GI tract and digestion and absorption of food.

Când toată lumea se afla în vacanță, zeci de tineri din România, Statele Unite ale Americii, Franța, Italia, Slovacia, Ucraina și Republica Moldova au avut ocazia să se pregătească cu profesori și cercetători de la universități de prestigiu  în cadrul proiectului APEX Scientific. Dacă în 2024, matematica a fost deschizător de drumuri, în 2025 chimia a completat portofoliul taberelor de pregătire APEX. Marius Matache este cercetator, chimist, parte din acest proiect al Asociației InformArt.  APEX Chemistry 2025 s-a petrecut în perioada 20 iulie – 9 august, iar printre invitații a fost și un un laureat al Premiului Nobel pentru Chimie. Jean-Marie Lehn, profesor la Universitatea din Strasbourg și laureat al Premiului Nobel pentru Chimie în 1987, a susținut două prelegeri pentru participanții la APEX Chemistry 2025. Ele au fost urmate de o sesiune de întrebări și răspunsuri. Printre profesorii și cercetătorii de top cu care tinerii chimiști au lucrat în cele trei săptămâni de tabără se mai numără Adrian Șalic (Harvard Medical School), Daniel Funeriu (Universitatea din București), Niculina Hădade (Universitatea Babeș-Bolyai Cluj- Napoca), Ivan Huc (Ludwig Maximilian University, Munchen) Mihaela Matache (Universitatea din București) și Mihaela Florea (Institutul Național de Cercetare- Dezvoltare pentru Fizica Materialelor Măgurele). De asemenea, tabăra include o bogată componentă practică, găzduită de laboratoarele Facultății de Chimie a Universității din București și ale Institutului Național de Cercetare- Dezvoltare pentru Fizica Materialelor. Programul a inclus vizite la Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) din Măgurele și Microsin SA (producător de componente active pentru industria farmaceutică). Muzeul BNR și Parcul de Aventură Comana au fost două din experiențele de timp liber de care viitorii chimiști s-au bucurat în cadrul APEX Chemistry 2025 Și tot în perioada vacanței de vară, Asociația InformArt a organizat la București, o competiție internațională pe echipe pentru elevi de liceu, un turneu international de chimie, bazat pe dezbateri științifice, în căutarea unor soluții deschise. Vorbim despre un eveniment ajuns la a VIII-a ediție și care anul acesta a inclus echipe din Romania, Georgia, Coreea de Sud sau Mexic. E interesant că acest concurs propune o cu totul alta abordare fata de olimpiadele școlare clasice. Aici abilitățile științifice, creativitatea, munca în echipa, dar și gândirea publicas au vorbitul în public, sunt elemente care te aduc mai aproape de a căștiga competiția. Amănunte în interviul realizat cu Marius Matache (Asociația InformArt).

How can AI improve our healthcare industry? In this episode, Dr Emma Yhnell speaks to health informaticist and author Dr Charlotte Blease about the role AI could play in the future of medicine, from making it more accessible to helping lighten the hours of a burnt-out workforce.  Healthcare systems around the world are under mounting pressure. Healthcare professionals are amongst the most overworked, with half of all US doctors being burnt out and 42% of UK  doctors feeling unable to cope with their weekly workload. Studies show that burnout is linked to increased rates of error and harm, which in the medical industry could mean the difference between catching a diagnosis in time or risking a patient's life. But Dr Charlotte Blease argues that this need not be the case. It is time to thoughtfully implement the new technologies of our age to revolutionize the healthcare industry. AI can help us to overhaul a system that is reaching capacity and has the potential to change lives, both for doctors and their patients.  Dr Charlotte Blease is a health informaticist with a background in philosophy. She has published more than 150 peer-reviewed journals and books on healthcare and is an Associate Professor at the Participatory eHealth and Health Data Research Group at Uppsala University and Researcher at Digital Psychiatry, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School. Her latest book is Dr Bot: Why Doctors Can Fail and How AI Could Save Lives.

Dr. Jeffrey Karp is a Harvard Medical School and MIT professor, inventor, best-selling author, and visionary leader. From transforming the challenges of undiagnosed ADHD into a wellspring of creativity and innovation, Dr. Karp has built a career championing neurodiversity, mindfulness, and environmental stewardship. He has co-founded 14 companies and secured over 100 patents, Dr. Karp's acclaimed book, LIT: Life Ignition Tools, inspires readers to move beyond autopilot living and embrace intentionality in daily life. Currently serving as Executive President of Geoversity Nature's University in Panama, Dr. Karp champions a “kinship worldview” that weaves together science, design, the arts, and indigenous wisdom to reconnect humanity with nature.    In today's episode, host Shay Beider talks with Dr. Jeffrey Karp about the three main forces he believes hold us back in modern life and how reconnecting with our nature, ritual and intuition can help us move from disconnection to real connection. He breaks down ideas like “radical simplicity,” asking better questions, and the power of setting clear intentions in everyday interactions. The duo dive into his fascinating biotech work inspired by nature, his advocacy for rethinking neurodiversity, and the possibilities he sees for AI in transforming education. Dr. Karp shares what he's learned about building an internal compass rooted in core values and reminds us that healing often means unlearning old patterns and paying closer attention to the world around us—so we can grow, reconnect, and help create a thriving future together.   Listen to the complete episode by clicking the player above.

(Episode #289) Anxiety doesn't mean something is wrong with you. It may be the very sign you are moving closer to your truth.  In this episode, I sit down with Dr. David Rosmarin, associate professor at Harvard Medical School and founder of the Center for Anxiety, to reframe everything we have been taught about anxiety. Rather than seeing it as a flaw or disorder, Dr. Rosmarin shares how anxiety can actually be a source of connection, motivation, and deep self-discovery. Together, we explore how anxiety often shows up when we are pursuing something meaningful, and why embracing it instead of resisting it can bring out strength, closeness, and even spiritual growth. If you have ever wondered whether your anxiety could hold hidden wisdom, this conversation will help you shift your relationship with it in a profound and life-changing way.   Episode Highlights:  (00:00) Embracing anxiety as a guide (17:47) Facing fears to build resilience (27:05) The spectrum of anxiety levels (28:41) The practice of letting go (31:12) Culture's role in rising anxiety (37:51) Where spirituality meets psychology   Stay in touch with Dr. Rosmarin here: https://dhrosmarin.com/ The Intuition Activation Mentorship is back!

In today's episode, supported by Chimerix, we spoke with Patrick Y. Wen, MD, about the FDA approval of dordaviprone (Modeyso) for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients at least 1 year of age with H3K27M-mutated diffuse midline glioma who have progressive disease following prior therapy. Dr Wen is the director of the Center for Neuro-Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; as well as a professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. In our conversation, Dr Wen discussed the significance of this accelerated approval across patient age groups, key efficacy and safety data that supported this approval, and the importance of biomarker testing in patients with glioma. He also highlighted potential next steps for expanding the investigation of dordaviprone in patients with glioma and emphasized the ways that multidisciplinary collaboration can provide patients with personalized, optimized care. 

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Sr. Ilia Delio continues her conversation with neuroanthropologist Terrence Deacon. Together, they explore how we might “fall up” into a collective future—probing the limits of machines and minds, and why complexity in nature often emerges not by work, but by play.What happens when we mistake computation for thinking? When our tools become mirrors and we fall for our own reflection? From Plato's worry about writing to today's large language models, Deacon asks how outsourcing our capacities can both diminish autonomy and unlock astonishing, shared intelligence—raising new questions about freedom, dependence, and human flourishing.Later in the episode, Sr. Ilia and Deacon trace “falling up” through biology—hemoglobin's elegant duplications, altruism, and the rule of play—before turning to the noosphere: a future where persons remain distinct yet increasingly interdependent. Along the way they weigh the risks of “queen bee” totalisms against the promise of a freer, more cooperative species life.ABOUT TERRENCE DEACON“Almost everything we do is with respect to something that doesn't yet exist… All of our actions… are really about that absence. I actually think that this is the essence of what it means for something to be alive.”Professor Terrence Deacon is Distinguished Professor emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley, and has previously held faculty positions at Harvard University, Harvard Medical School, and Boston University. His research in comparative and developmental neuroanatomy has focused on the human brain, using physiological, quantitative, and cross-species methods. He is the author of The Symbolic Species: The Coevolution of Language and the Brain (1997), which explores how language and the human brain evolved together, and Incomplete Nature: How Mind Emerged from Matter (2012), which examines how thermodynamic, self-organizing, semiotic, and evolutionary processes gave rise to life and mind. He is currently working on a new book, Falling Up: How Inverse Darwinism Catalyzes Evolution, which explores how the relaxation of natural selection and subsequent degenerative processes have paradoxically contributed to the evolution of increasing biological complexity.Whether you're enjoying Hunger for Wholeness or see ways we can improve, we'd genuinely value your feedback.

This week, Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford joins us for a compassionate conversation about weight, health, and healing. We're exploring why obesity should be understood as a chronic disease, not a moral failing, and discussing new treatment options like GLP-1 medications that are changing lives. Dr. Stanford is an obesity medicine Physician-Scientist at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. What makes her perspective so valuable is that she understands the unique experiences of Black women navigating weight and health in a world that often judges us harshly. As one of the few Black women leading research in this field, she sees how chronic stress, systemic barriers, and generational trauma show up in our bodies in ways that traditional medicine has often overlooked. During our conversation, we talk about the science behind weight regulation, how new medications actually work, and why it's time to move beyond BMI as the only measure of health. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.

Your eyes are not cameras—they are clocks. Every cell and organ in your body is orchestrated by the light you let in, making light the most powerful regulator of health. More than ever, I believe the “light diet” is a foundational lifestyle change in the fight against chronic disease. That's why today's guest is one of the most important I've had—a true pioneer in the science of light and health.Dr. Martin Moore-Ede is a world-renowned circadian biology expert with over four decades of research on how light affects sleep, fatigue, and chronic diseases. As a former Harvard Medical School professor, he helped discover the brain's master clock—the suprachiasmatic nucleus—and authored the bestselling The Clocks That Time Us. In 1983, he founded CIRCADIAN®, a global firm optimizing 24/7 workforce performance, and later launched CIRCADIAN Light and CIRCADIAN ZircLight to counter the health risks of artificial lighting.In this episode, we explore:How proper light exposure can increase lifespan by up to five years—and how being “dumb with light” is now correlated with everything from cancer and diabetes to autoimmune and psychiatric disorders.When to wake up, how much outdoor light we need daily, the massive difference in lux between indoor and outdoor light, and the critical role of the brain's internal clock.Why early sunlight matters, and how flawed studies distorted our understanding of sunlight and cataracts.The rise in breast cancer since widespread electrification—now 70x more common.How hospital window placement can influence recovery from depression and anxiety by up to 50%.Why Dr. Moore-Ede gets outside every day—rain, sun, or snow—without sunglasses or eyewear.Whether you're new to circadian science or already light-aware, this episode will shift how you think about health.Contact and Resources: Website – thelightdoctor.com Website – bluesafe24.com Website – circadianlight.orgReferenced Studies Mentioned:Gbyl K et al.

If there's one unpleasant feeling we're all familiar with, it's tiredness. At the start of the new school year, it can be particularly prevalent as you get back into the swing of things after the holidays or rush back to work. According to researchers at Harvard Medical School, fatigue can be classified into three types: Physical fatigue: a lack of strength and endurance, mental fatigue: increased reaction time and reduced concentration and Emotional fatigue: a form of mental fogginess. Is it serious to be tired from time to time? What can you do to balance your energy intake and expenditure? Is there any tip ? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Sr. Ilia Delio engages neuroanthropologist Terrence Deacon. Together, they probe the paradox of presence and absence—how constraint, incompleteness, and time shape mind, language, and the emergence of human meaning. From Charles Sanders Peirce to Claude Shannon, Deacon traces a lineage that reframes form not as what's added, but as what's held back.What happens when we privilege what's present while ignoring the creative force of what's missing? How does constraint give rise to information, and why might Gödel's incompleteness illuminate consciousness more than mechanism alone? Moving through Descartes' split of mind and matter, Deacon proposes that what we call “the mental” is the constraint-aspect of the physical—a shift that dissolves false dualisms and re-roots knowing in embodiment.Later in the episode, Sr. Ilia and Deacon explore symbolic abstraction, culture, and ecology—how our ungrounded representations both empower and endanger us. They close by examining today's so-called “artificial intelligence,” arguing it's better understood as a simulation of intelligence, and asking what a grounded, value-aware future might require of us.ABOUT TERRENCE DEACON“Almost everything we do is with respect to something that doesn't yet exist… All of our actions… are really about that absence. I actually think that this is the essence of what it means for something to be alive.”Professor Terrence Deacon is Distinguished Professor emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley, and has previously held faculty positions at Harvard University, Harvard Medical School, and Boston University. His research in comparative and developmental neuroanatomy has focused on the human brain, using physiological, quantitative, and cross-species methods. He is the author of The Symbolic Species: The Coevolution of Language and the Brain (1997), which explores how language and the human brain evolved together, and Incomplete Nature: How Mind Emerged from Matter (2012), which examines how thermodynamic, self-organizing, semiotic, and evolutionary processes gave rise to life and mind. He is currently working on a new book, Falling Up: How Inverse Darwinism Catalyzes Evolution, which explores how the relaxation of natural selection and subsequent degenerative processes have paradoxically contributed to the evolution of increasing biological complexity.Whether you're enjoying Hunger for Wholeness or see ways we can improve, we'd genuinely value your feedback.

How many times have we heard that weight loss and maintenance is simply “calories in, calories out?” Well, the equation may be rooted in thermodynamics, but the reality is biology, history, hormones, and a whole lot more. This week, endocrinologist and Harvard obesity researcher Dr. Jody Dushay breaks down why this concept is far more complex than the numbers on a food label or how many calories our devices tell us we've burned. From how your body actually absorbs calories to how (or not) it expends them, we explore how and why weight gain and loss anything but straightforward—especially during menopause, when shifting body composition, gut microbiome changes, altered insulin responses, and evolving hormone levels, create a whole new metabolic landscape. As you'll see, your body isn't a calculator—it's a dynamic, adapting system. We also revisit GLP-1 drugs, which are increasingly popular with midlife women, and where they fit in this whole equation (so to speak). Jody Dushay, MD, MMSc, is an endocrinologist at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. She is also the founder and director of Well Powered, a comprehensive wellness and weight management program. Dr Dushay has studied the effect of pharmacotherapies and dietary interventions on body weight for years, including a large single-site study examining the effects of a glucagon-like peptide receptor agonist on body weight in obese women without diabetes. As a triathlete, she has qualified for Kona 3 times and came in 2nd in her age group at the 2020 Ironman World Championship in St George.

The mechanisms behind Alzheimer's disease have eluded scientists for decades. But a new breakthrough points to lithium as a possible explanation—not only does it occur naturally in the brain, but a deficiency causes dementia in mice. This research is one of thousands of projects that have lost funding due to President Trump's cuts to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Host Ira Flatow speaks with Alzheimer's researcher Bruce Yankner about this new finding, and then to epidemiologist Katelyn Jetelina and immunologist Elisabeth Marnik about the country's “quiet engine of science,” the NIH.Guests: Dr. Bruce Yankner is professor of genetics and neurology at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts.Dr. Katelyn Jetelina, epidemiologist and author of the Your Local Epidemiologist newsletter.
