For a captioned version or to access the transcript, please visit: https://www.pharmaron.com/knowledge-center/dmpk-insights-14-cns-modelling/In this podcast, Scott Summerfield and Professor Elizabeth de Lange discuss the evolution of CNS drug disposition models, highlighting the increasing sophistication of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models, such as LeiCNS-PK3.0. They discuss how these tools are enhancing our understanding of CNS drug distribution, predicting human pharmacokinetics, and supporting translational research across species.We will address the following questions:What scientific needs led to the development of early CNS drug models?How have tools like microdialysis and PBPK modeling shaped current CNS pharmacokinetic models?What role does the unbound drug concentration (Kpuu) play in predicting CNS drug effects?How do modern models like LeiCNS-PK3.0 integrate complex physiological and pharmacodynamic data?What are the future research directions and translational opportunities in CNS PK/PD modeling?Our Moderator:Scott Summerfield – Executive Director Metabolism at PharmaronScott Summerfield is the head of Metabolism, leading clinical and nonclinical radiolabeled ADME (Pharma and Environmental), in vivo support, imaging, as well as Discovery/Development and bioanalysis metabolite ID. Scott joined Pharmaron in 2022, having worked in the Pharmaceutical Industry for over 20 years, supporting both small and large molecule DMPK projects (Discovery and Development). He holds a PhD and a postdoctoral degree in protein mass spectrometry. He has published extensively in the areas of bioanalysis and the permeation of drugs across the blood-brain barrier.Our Speaker:Elizabeth de Lange – Professor Predictive Pharmacology at Leiden UniversityElizabeth de Lange is a Professor in Predictive Pharmacology and Principal Investigator at the Research Division of Systems Pharmacology and Pharmacy of the Leiden Academic Center for Drug Research (LACDR). With her team, she is helping to unravel the rate and extent of mechanisms that govern central nervous system (CNS) target site pharmacokinetics (PK) and related pharmacodynamics (PD), with a special emphasis on physiologically based (PB) translation between species and conditions. The ultimate aim is to have mathematical models that support CNS drug development (including reduction and replacement of nonclinical studies) and can predict the best possible treatment for CNS conditions in the individual patient (‘tailor-made'). Elizabeth has contributed over 160 peer-reviewed publications, delivered more than 170 invited lectures, and organized numerous conferences, symposia, courses, and workshops. She has had multiple leadership positions in scientific projects, also at LACDR, nationally with the NVF, in large international organizations (e.g., AAPS), and is currently the scientific coordinator of the EU consortium QSPainRelief. She has several roles on advisory board, provides both advice and consultancy, and alongside all of this Elizabeth contributes to education in the BioPharmaceutical Sciences bachelor's and master courses. Among other honors, Elizabeth received the AAPS Fellow Award (2013), an Honorary Doctorate in Pharmacy from Uppsala University (2020), and the prestigious Sheiner Lecture Lifetime Achievement Award from ISOP (2020).Stay tuned for more podcasts in our Pharmaron DMPK Insights Series!

Change doesn't always come with a breakthrough—it often begins with a single small step taken with intention. Brianna Wiest shares her wisdom on how micro shifts, emotional awareness, and self-compassion can transform not only your habits but your entire life. With clarity and heart, she explores the power of slowing down, embracing seasons of transition, and building emotional architecture that supports lasting growth. Her perspective reminds us that the life we're waiting for is already unfolding—one small, consistent choice at a time. Key Takeaways: Small, intentional actions create momentum for long-term transformation without overwhelming your nervous system. Emotional architecture helps you process feelings as teachers, not obstacles. Self-sabotage often masks a deeper need for safety or care—identifying those needs can break the cycle. Consistent routines and community connections are essential to staying grounded during life's in-between seasons. Trusting your journey means surrendering to the present and aligning with your own pace of growth.   About Brianna Wiest: Brianna is the bestselling author of the books 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think, The Mountain Is You, The Pivot Year, and more. Her books have sold millions of copies, regularly appear on global bestseller lists, and are currently being translated into 40+ languages. She has a B.A. in English and an Honorary Doctorate in Literature, both from Elizabethtown College. briannawiest.com    Connect with Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh at: https://smallchangesbigshifts.com hello@smallchangesbigshifts.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/smallchangesbigshifts https://www.facebook.com/SmallChangesBigShifts https://www.instagram.com/smallchangesbigshiftsco   Thanks for listening!

Episode 99. Bonus  For this Bonus episode, I've invited two British women, Lindsay Simmonds and Julie Siddiqi, both PhDs, to talk about their interfaith friendship and the public facing work they've done since Hamas' attack on Israel on 7 Oct. 2023. Lindsay is an Orthodox Jew and Julie is Muslim. The fact of their religious identities and deep practice is noteworthy and relevant, as the attack and subsequent war, have proven polarizing, straining the already challenging work of bridging religious differences between Jews and Muslims. Lindsay and Julie offer an inspiring example of possibility, showing us the path to connection, communication, and healing, while not shying away from the challenges. Given the long standing and apparent intransigence of the conflict, this seemed a good time for some hope.Highlights: Intersection of deep faith practice and interfaith work.Organizing inclusive events amidst tension.Impact and significance of their work.The role of space, gender, and representation.Trivializing women's impactful initiatives.Sustaining hope and setting intentions for the future. Bios:  Dr. Lindsay Simmonds is a Research Fellow at the London School of Jewish Studies (LSJS) where she has lectured for 20+ years.

Video recording of this episode is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OcxwmDuUeU&ab_channel=UCD-UniversityCollegeDublin Henry Glassie is College Professor Emeritus at Indiana University, Bloomington, USA, and has published widely in the fields of material culture and vernacular architecture. His contribution to the discipline of Irish Folklore and Ethnology has been exceptional. Having lived in Ballymenone, Co. Fermanagh, for almost a decade in the 1970s, Professor Glassie published a number of studies inspired by the community there, including All Silver and No Brass (1975), Passing the Time in Ballymenone (1982) and The Stars of Ballymenone (2006). These books are landmark works which have become classic texts for students of Folklore in Ireland and abroad, along with many other items on Professor Glassie's long list of publications. Henry has rendered invaluable service to our understanding of Irish popular tradition and vernacular culture, and he can truly be described as a towering figure in the study of Irish Folklore for more than half a century. Even in his retirement, he remains a staunch and committed friend to Ireland and to the people he worked with while carrying out fieldwork here. Henry has had a long and extremely positive relationship with UCD since the establishment of the Department of Irish Folklore in the university in the early 1970s. With the approach of the fiftieth anniversary of his first major publication on Irish Folklore, All Silver and No Brass, it was deemed especially appropriate for the University to take the opportunity to honour Professor Glassie, and on Wednesday 21 May 2025, Henry was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Arts from UCD, in recognition of his remarkable contribution to the growing area of Irish Studies in general, and to the field of Irish Folklore and Ethnology in particular. It was a great honour and personal privilege for me to sit and 'Pass the Time' with Henry, and over the course of ninety minutes we explored his background, interests, intellectual life, and experiences of field work, as well as delving into the topics of place, creativity, art, meaning, identity, belonging and despair; invoking old friends such as Fred B. Kniffen, E. Estyn Evans, Michael J. Murphy, Seán Ó Súilleabháin, Ellen Cutler, Tommy Love, Michael Boyle, Peter Flanagan, and Hugh Nolan as we trooped our way homewards. My thanks to all my colleagues at the NFC, as well as Susan Lysaght, Sandra Collins, Evelyn Flanagan, Andrew Fogarty, Veronica Aguilar Olmos, Dominic Martella for making this episode possible, and - most especially - to Henry and Pravina for their generosity, openness and kindness.

What if a vivid dream could change not just your life, but the lives of countless women and children? That's exactly what happened to Susan Binkley, the founder of Blue Monarch. Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Susan as she shares her inspiring journey from a dream in 1995 to the creation of Blue Monarch in 2003. Despite having no experience in recovery work, Susan overcame her initial reluctance. Her unwavering obedience, faith, and determination led her to build a sanctuary that has reunited over 350 children with their mothers and helped women heal from severe trauma.In this episode, Susan opens up about the miraculous ways that God equipped her to start Blue Monarch and how he continues to sustain her. Listen as Susan reflects on a pivotal moment in 2012 that taught her the importance of serving rather than fixing people, a philosophy that has been crucial in preventing burnout among her team. We also discuss her book and the wealth of resources available on her website, offering listeners a comprehensive look into her impactful work at Blue Monarch. This episode is a testament to the power of obedience, faith, and the transformative impact of serving others. -Susan Binkley grew up in Tennessee and received a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Tennessee.  In addition to working as a professional artist, she owned and operated a horse farm and large boarding operation, developed unique vacation rentals, created a bakery/café, and established a granola manufacturing business.  In 2003, Binkley founded Blue Monarch, a Christ-centered, long-term residential recovery program for women and their children.  Blue Monarch has since become one of the most unique and successful recovery programs in the country with a strong emphasis on teaching women to parent sober and by focusing on the child's recovery as much as the mom's.  Since 2003, Blue Monarch has served nearly 1,000 women and children and over 350 children have been reunited with their mothers who had previously lost custody.Susan authored a collection of her personal Blue Monarch stories, “From My Front Row Seat,” which quickly became an Amazon bestseller in two categories: Inspirational Christianity and Christian Missions & Missionary Work. The stories are raw and authentic combined with surprising humor, considering the heavy subject matter.Binkley's awards include Women in American History Award from Daughters of the American Revolution, TIAA Difference Maker, and an Honorary Doctorate in Civil Law from the University of the South.  Susan lives with her husband, Clay, on the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee overlooking a state park. Connect with Susan:On Instagram: @susanbinkleyauthorOn Facebook: Susan BinkleyWebsite: bluemonarch.orgLinks mentioned:From My Front Row Seat: by Susan Binkley On the She Surrenders podcast we are talking about women, faith and addiction all on the same platform. There are many podcasts for women and sobriety, but very few for women seeking information and stories from others about faith-based recovery. Could you leave a review for the SS Podcast? Subscribing and Reviewing will help get this in the ears of those searching for God's word in Recovery. I'm trying hard to get the word out, and this is a way you can be a part of the solution as well. Thank you!

We meet leading artist Jeffrey Gibson to discuss his Venice Biennale solo and explore his inspiring and illustrious career thus far.The first Indigenous artist to represent the USA at this year's Venice Biennale, Gibson is a painter and sculptor whose work is held in many major American collections. Incorporating murals, paintings, textiles and historical objects, Gibson's work also weaves together text drawn lyrics, poetry and his own writing, complete with references to abstraction, fashion and popular culture. Of Mississippi Choctaw and Cherokee heritage, Gibson uses materials such as Native American beadwork and trading posts in his art that explores identity and labels. Drawing influence from popular music, fashion, literature, cultural and critical theory, and his own individual heritage, Jeffrey Gibson (b.1972, Colorado; based in Hudson, NY) recontextualizes the familiar to offer a succinct commentary on cultural hybridity and the assimilation of modernist artistic strategies within contemporary art. Gibson's Cherokee and Choctaw lineage has imparted a recognizable aesthetic to his beaded works exploring narrative deconstructions of both image and language as transmitted through figuration.Known for his re-appropriation of both found and commercial commodities –ranging from song lyrics to the literal objecthood of punching bags – repurposed through Minimalist and post-Minimalist aesthetics, speaks to the revisionist history of Modernist forms and techniques. His sculptures and paintings seamlessly coalesce traditional Native American craft with contemporary cultural production and references, forming works that speak to the experience of an individual subjectivity within the larger narrative defining contemporary globalization.Jeffrey Gibson grew up in major urban centers in the United States, Germany, and Korea, where he absorbed the transgressive soundtrack of the 1980s through limited access to MTV. Gibson graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1995 and received a Master of Arts in painting at the Royal College of Art, London, in 1998. While in Chicago he also worked as a research assistant on the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) for the Field Museum, a formative experience that fostered an ongoing interest in questions of ownership and notions of cultural translation.Though trained as a painter, Gibson began incorporating materials and techniques that deliberately reference his heritage—such as raw hides and bead work—around 2010. A major turning point in his career, in 2012 he presented ‘one becomes the other,' his first solo exhibition of sculpture and video, at Participant Inc. Sculpture, moving image, and sound have since become an integral aspect of his practice. He is known for his immersive, multi-sensory installations that invoke and interweave such disparate contexts as faith-based spaces of communion and night clubs.

Robin suggested a fresh perspective on emotional intelligence, emphasizing its complementary aspects to AI. Michael agreed, noting the importance of diverse viewpoints in discussions about AI. They planned to delve deeper into this topic during the show, with Robin offering insights from his experience working with senior leaders worldwide. Robin also shared his upcoming training program in the US. Emotional Intelligence and AI in the Workplace Michael expressed concern about the lack of coverage of emotional intelligence (Ei) in AI discussions. Robin then provided a clear definition of Ei as the ability to make good decisions and build authentic relationships by being 'smart' with one's emotions. She also discussed the increasing popularity and potential revolutionary impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace, but emphasized that this does not mean humans will become redundant. Instead, she stressed the importance of identifying what differentiates humans from machine technology, specifically Ei. Technology's Impact on Employment and Job Creation Michael and Robin discussed the impact of technology on employment and job creation. They both agreed that while new technologies may cause initial concern and job displacement, they also create new opportunities and roles. They highlighted examples of this throughout history, including the advent of rideshare services like Uber and Lyft, and the rise of the internet and digital communication. They emphasized the importance of embracing new technologies and being adaptable to change. AI and Emotional Intelligence Discussion Michael discussed his positive experiences with using AI in his work, highlighting its efficiency and creativity benefits. However, Robin pointed out that AI and emotional intelligence (EI) cannot function independently of each other, as AI lacks the human capacity for leadership and building emotional connections. Both emphasized the importance of human experience and memory in navigating through life, contrasting it with the programmed responses of AI. They agreed that AI, while useful, should not replace human leadership and relationship building. AI, Emotional Intelligence, and Organizational Dynamics Michael and Robin discussed the potential and limitations of AI and emotional intelligence within an organizational context. Michael emphasized the importance of personalizing instructions for AI to function effectively, while Robin highlighted the inherent limitations of AI to understand and adapt to human emotions and nuances. They both agreed that emotional intelligence is essential for navigating the complexities of the future, and Robin proposed looking at an organization as a network of people, including all stakeholders, for a better understanding of its dynamics. Emotional Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence Limitations Robin emphasized the importance of emotional intelligence in leadership and asserted that, despite advancements in artificial intelligence, machines would never possess emotional intelligence due to the unique complexity of the human brain. Michael agreed, acknowledging the potential benefits of artificial intelligence but highlighting its limitations in replicating the human brain's complexity. Both agreed that emotional intelligence would remain a crucial factor in human interactions and leadership. Emotional Intelligence Collaboration and Networking Michael and Robin discussed Robin's work on emotional intelligence and her website, EiForChange.com, which offers free resources including a book.
