Today, we delve into a topic that may have raised a few eyebrows

"War was always central to Putin's project," writes Alex J. Bellamy in Warmonger: Vladimir Putin's Imperial Wars (Agenda, 2023). Not just the second Chechen war that made him but the NATO-probing wars in Georgia and eastern Ukraine that emboldened him, and the Western-style war from air in Syria designed to mark Russia's return to Great Power status. But, the project has not gone well. According to Professor Bellamy, the military and strategic disaster of Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine had long been foretold. In Syria, unable to control his client, Putin has been outwitted and outgunned by his Turkish imperial rival, which has also shifted the balance of power against Moscow in the long-running Azerbaijan/Armenia conflict. Even apparent success in Chechnya was bought by outsourcing to the Kadyrov clan, who run the republic independently at enormous cost to the Kremlin. "War has finally caught up with the warmonger," writes Bellamy. "Should Russia's imperial dreaming survive its battering in Ukraine, and it is by no means certain that it will, it will be a Potemkin empire existing only in the minds of those who parrot its tropes". Alex J. Bellamy is Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies at The University of Queensland. Since Kosovo and International Society in 2002, he has written 15 books as sole author including World Peace (And How We Can Achieve It) in 2019 and Syria Betrayed: Atrocities, War, and the Failure of International Diplomacy in 2022. *The author's own book recommendations are The Last Empire: The Final Days of the Soviet Union by Serhii Plokhy (Oneworld Publications, 2014) and Dominion: The Making of the Western Mind by Tom Holland (Little Brown, 2019). Tim Gwynn Jones is an economic and political-risk analyst at Medley Advisors, who also writes the twenty4two newsletter on Substack and hosts the In The Room podcast series.

There's been a surge in our consumption of ultra-processed foods, especially in the United Kingdom and the United States, where these foods contribute about two-thirds of people's caloric intake. Also a cause for concern is emerging evidence of ultra-processed foods' detrimental effect on our brain health and overall well-being.When most of our calories come from ultra-processed foods, the risk of chronic physical and mental health conditions escalates. Scientists are now uncovering the intricate mechanisms behind this relationship, particularly concerning the effects of these foods on our brains.In today's episode, we welcome back Prof. Felice Jacka, OAM. Felice is an Alfred Deakin professor of nutritional psychiatry and the director of the Food & Mood Centre at Deakin University, in Australia. She's also the founder of the International Society for Nutritional Psychiatry Research and the world's leading researcher on food's impact on our brain and mental health.Now, she's back on the show to delve deeper into the effects of ultra-processed foods on mental health and the brain, specifically the hippocampus, an area responsible for learning and memory.Get science-based nutrition advice straight to your inbox: https://bit.ly/44xRywMIf you want to uncover the right foods for your body, head to joinzoe.com/podcast and get 10% off your personalised nutrition program.Timecodes:00:00 Intro01:19 Quick fire questions04:17 What is ultra processed food?05:37 What is the NOVA classification?08:18 How does food impact the brain?10:33 What does the hippocampus do to influence our brain function?12:58 Is there a link between the size of the hippocampus and quality of diet?13:45 Is there a link between the quality of diet and depression?20:37 What are the effects of long term dietary habits?21:33 Is there a link between poor diet and dementia23:18 Is there a link between autism and diet?24:00 How real is the link between diet and dementia?24:57 What is the oral microbiome?28:16 New trial between whole foods and vitamin enriched nutritional foods29:28 How does processing foods impact the makeup of foods on a molecular level?32:10 How does the biodiversity around us affect our body?33:08 How does the industrialized food environment impact us?35:50 How strong is the evidence for this? is it comparable to smoking?39:12 Practical tips to help with our diet40:07 How does reducing consumption of UPF affect us?41:25 How to cut down on UPF44:04 Is it too late to change your diet?45:39 Does exercise impact our brain?47:41 Summary52:57 Goodbyes/OutroMentioned in today's episode: The SMILES trial published in BMC Medicine Ultra-Processed Food Consumption and Mental Health published in NutrientsWestern diet is associated with a smaller hippocampus also in BMC Medicine Learn more about Felice on the Food & Mood Centre's website.Follow Felice on

Shaina French is a Certified Nurse Midwife. She joins us on SPFPP this episode to talk about a Team approach to health care. We discuss time restrictions and workload providers have to navigate in order to meet the requirements necessary to be able to take insurance, and what we're paying for in order to get that extra time and quality of care from those who opt out of taking insurance. Overall we discuss bias and stigma, and that communication and awareness are essential to the quality of care someone is receiving and able to give. Patients and providers both have needs and we discuss how social media CAN potentially meet those needs, even though simultaneously it could cause different challenges. We discuss the importance of a referral list and I inquire on bias vs identity compatibility which speaks to one's scope of practice.

Have you ever wondered why so many women professional singers retire in their prime, but the guys keep on going?  I googled “musicians over the age of 70 who are still performing” and Paul McCartney, Elton John, Marvin Gaye,  Mick Jagger, and dozens of others popped up. The list was really long for guys, and really short for women.  One reason is that when estrogen levels take a plunge, the change in hormones has a significant impact on vocal frequency and range. In this episode, my guest is Dr. Cheryl Kinney, an expert on the impact of hormones on the voice.   How estrogen and progesterone influence voice throughout life Why testosterone lowers the voice Why thousands of boys were castrated in the 1700s How voice changes during a menstrual cycle Why some birth control pills alter voice What the cervix and throat have in common  The impact of menopause on the voice The impact on professional vocalists and voice-over actors. How and why obesity influences hormonal impact on voice Medical conditions and specific medications that alter voice How to find a specialist who treats hormonal vocal changes New research showing that voice changes can be a biomarker for hormonal changes and other health conditions About Dr. Kinney www.drcherylkinney.com Dr. Cheryl Kinney is a gynecologist in in Dallas, Texas where she is Director of the Center for Female Health and Hormone Disorders.  Dr. Kinney is on the Board of Trustees of The Menopause Society and is on the Editorial Board of the journal Menopause.

Human stem cell technology has led to remarkable insights into human biology in health and disease. However, for the results and outputs from this research to be accurate, meaningful, and durable, it is important that the field have agreed upon standards that ensure reproducibility and reliability of the data. The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) has developed a set of recommendations, including reporting criteria, for scientists in basic research laboratories. These criteria are designed to be technically and financially feasible and, when implemented, to enhance the reproducibility and rigor of stem cell research.  The guests on this episode  recently served as the co-chairs of the ISSCR Standards Task Force that developed the “Standards for Human Stem Cell Use in Research" and will discuss the need for the standards, the challenges they faced, and how they will help advance the field.  The initiative was made possible through contributions from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund, Doris Duke Foundation, and the Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative.GuestsTenneille Ludwig is a Senior Scientist and Director of the WiCell Stem Cell Bank in Madison Wisconsin. As a postdoctoral fellow, Tenneille developed the TeSR media, the first defined, feeder-independent culture media for human embryonic stem cells. She holds leadership roles in numerous international efforts to improve the standards, characterization and banking of pluripotent stem cells including serving on the International Stem Cell Initiative and International Stem Cell Banking Initiative. Currently, Tenneille serves on the ISSCR's Manufacturing, Clinical Translation, and Industry Committee and co-chaired the ISSCR's Standards Task Force that developed the new document, “Standards for Human Stem Cell Use in Research.”  Peter Andrews is Professor Emeritus at the University of Sheffield in the UK. A founder of the field of human pluripotency, Peter has had a distinguished career studying embryonal carcinoma cells and human embryonic stem cells and was the first to discover that human pluripotent stem cells could develop genetic abnormalities during long term culture. He chaired the International Stem Cell Initiative, the first international effort to standardize methods for the characterization of human embryonic stem cells. Most recently, he co-chaired the ISSCR's Standards Task Force that developed the new document, “Standards for Human Stem Cell Use in Research.” HostMartin Pera, Editor-in-Chief, Stem Cell Reports and The Jackson Laboratory@martinperaJAXSupporting Contenthttps://www.isscr.org/standardshttps://www.isscr.org/standards-document About ISSCRWith more than 4,600 members from 75+ countries, the International Society for Stem Cell Research (@ISSCR) is the preeminent global, cross-disciplinary, science-based organization dedicated to stem cell research and its translation to the clinic.

This episode is part of the Summer of AI Series, brought to you by SchoolAI, Scrible, and FocalPointK12.Mary Howard is a Nationally Board Certified Teacher and teaches 6th grade ELA and Science in Grand Island, New York.  She has found success using digital tools that not only make learning fun for her students, but encourage critical thinking, collaboration, and create a life-long passion for learning.  Whether the digital experience is related to Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics or promotes literacy, Mary believes passionately in the potential that technology has for reaching and engaging ALL learners. In pursuit of this passion, Mary has spent the past 15 years presenting at dozens of technology conferences including NYSCATE, STANYS and, ISTE among others.  She has become a globally recognized speaker on the topics of augmented reality and virtual reality and the Next Generation Science Standards and shares her strategies through her blog, yoursmarticles.com.  She has published numerous educational technology articles and has provided webinars on Virtual Environments, Virtual Reality, 3D Design, QR codes and digital engagement strategies.  Mary's accolades include recognition as the 2018 International Society for Technology in Education's Virtual Pioneer of the Year and 3 Silver Presidential Volunteer Service awards.  She was a New York State Teacher of the year finalist for 2018 and 2020 and is a New York State Master Teacher.  When Mary isn't elbows deep in her technology initiatives, she is a mother of 3 boys and devotes her free time to refereeing youth hockey and volunteering within the hockey community.  She is an avid runner, Adirondack 46er and recently cycled across New York State on the Erie Canal. Mary is a newly published author with her new release, Artificial Intelligence to Streamline Your Teacher Life: The ChatGPT Guide for Educators.Key Takeaways: AI is a tool that will help give teachers more time, reduce burnout, and improve teaching. Technology is about amplifying teachers' ability to reach all students. Reluctance to integrate technology doesn't come from a place of fear rather a place of this is, "one more thing". The more we streamline teachers' everyday tasks, the more we can get them in front of students and spending more quality time facilitating student learning. ChatGPT still needs to be checked once the product is finished. We need to make sure we follow age and privacy concerns because ChatGPT is collecting data on the users. Education still has to focus on thinking rather than retrieval of information. This will help the integration of ChatGPT as a useful tool rather than a tool used to get good grades. The perfect classroom still has a teacher who is helping guide rich discussions through the Socratic method and collaboration with AI helping streamline that in the background. Leaders need to celebrate every little success individuals have to continually build positivity.

We start by discussing the differences between computational-representational approaches and dynamical approaches in cognitive science. We talk about 4E cognition. We then get into a recent paper by Dr. Hipólito, Mind as Motion, and talk about a shift in psychology towards dynamical approaches, and the role of the sociocultural context. We discuss if psychological experiences have any intrinsic value, and if science is independent of any sociocultural context. Finally, we discuss if AI systems can become human-like if they are not embodied. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BERNARDO SEIXAS, OLAF ALEX, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, JOHN CONNORS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, SIMON COLUMBUS, PHIL KAVANAGH, MIKKEL STORMYR, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, ADANER USMANI, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, DANIEL FRIEDMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, CHARLES MOREY, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Brighter Days Ahead: Leaving Depression Behind Through Innovative New Treatments by Theodore A. Henderson Neuro-luminance.com Depression is not what you think it is. Yes, it is a downward spiral of misery, self-doubt, angst, and apathy, but the cause is not a personality failing or a lack of serotonin. Have medications designed to change serotonin or dopamine levels in your brain helped you? Depression does, indeed, result from changes in your brain, but the nature of these transformations will shock and surprise you. This life-changing book will help you see depression in a new light…leading you to powerfully effective treatments. Psychiatrist, brain scientist, and inventor, Dr. Theodore Henderson paints a real-world picture of depression with moving stories and full color illustrations that makes the science underlying this common mental health condition come to life. Drawing upon almost two decades of intensive personalized treatment of hundreds of patients, Dr. Henderson deftly combines brain science with evocative case histories to explains exactly how the brain changes as a result of depression and how less well-known contemporary treatments for it work to reverse these changes. Gone are the chemical imbalance theories. Gone are the pull-yourself-up-by-the-bootstraps admonishments. Using the example of the powerful antidepressant effects of ketamine infusion therapy as a window into understanding not only what depression does to the brain, but how neuroplasticity can reverse it, often permanently, Dr. Henderson offers the reader even more information about this complex condition. He introduces other novel and powerful treatments for depression, as well as addressing childhood trauma, brain injury, inflammation, and the importance of mindfulness. In this deeply informed book, Dr. Henderson guides the reader to understanding the brain, depression, and effective solutions in a sometimes poignant, sometimes gritty, no-holds barred, real-world look at depression and recovery. About the Author Theodore A. Henderson MD, PhD is a descendent of Algonquin, French and English ancestors. He is president and founder of both The Synaptic Space and Dr. Theodore Henderson, Inc., clinical service firms. He is Co-Founder of Neuro-Luminance Inc, which is bringing revolutionary treatments to bear upon traumatic brain injury, depression, Alzheimer's disease, post-COVID fatigue syndrome, and other brain disorders. He is also the co-founder of the Neuro-Laser Foundation, a non-profit research foundation. He holds two patents and three patents-pending. Dr. Henderson is president of the International Society of Applied Neuroimaging. He has published in neuroimaging, psychopharmacology, dementia, photobiomodulation, and traumatic brain injury. He has over 70 publications and has been cited in over 900 scientific papers. He is editor or guest editor for numerous journals, including Frontiers in Psychiatry, JAMA Psychiatry, and PLoSOne. The work of he and his colleagues on using SPECT brain scans to differentiate brain injury from PTSD was recently recognized as a “Top Science Story” by Discover Magazine for 2015. A philanthropist himself, Dr. Henderson is also a father of two, stepfather of two and grandfather of three.

In this week's episode of the Discover Strength Podcast, I had the pleasure to sit down with Dr. Jose Antonio, Ph.D. to talk this week about creatine.Dr. Antonio is an Associate Professor at Nova Southeastern University. He's also a founding member of the ISSN (the International Society of Sports Nutrition), along with the Editor in Chief of the Journal of the ISSN and a former Vice President of the NSCA (National Strength and Conditioning Association).Dr. Antonio is one of the leading researchers on sports supplementation in the world.If you've listened to the Discover Strength Podcast you've probably heard us discuss creatine as one of the few supplements on the market that actually shows real clinical, scientific proof of effectiveness. Probably second only to protein supplementation, creatine (specifically creatine monohydrate) is a supplement that can be taken by almost any individual who is partaking in resistance training that shows positive benefits to almost all training metrics, with little to no side effects.Despite its safety and effectiveness, creatine is still widely misunderstood by the non-educated physically active community at large. So in 2021 Dr. Antonio and his research group published a paper discussing some of the most commonly asked questions surrounding creatine. Their hope is to shed some light on creatine's safety and efficacy and to dispel common myths and misconceptions surrounding the anabolic (muscle-building) supplement, of which there are many.If you have ever thought about taking creatine, this is a wonderful episode to quell any doubts you may have. If you've never thought about adding creatine to your supplement regimen, hopefully, this conversation will offer some insight into all the value that creatine has to offer.Check out the paper HERE!If you or someone you know is interested in trying out a FREE Discover Strength Introductory workout, please send them our way!Send any inquiries HERE to get scheduled for a FREE Introductory Session today to take the first step towards getting your life back. Schedule your FREE Introductory Workout Session in studio or online by following the link HERE.
