Why do nearly half of IR residents consider leaving the specialty, and what can be done to change that? On this episode of the BackTable Podcast, Dr. Neil Jain interviews Dr. David Mittelstein, an integrated IR resident at UC San Diego and co-chair of the SIR RFS Recruitment Committee, about the findings of a national SIR survey on interventional radiology resident attrition. They discuss what drives uncertainty, from lifestyle and call burden to job market fears, and highlight the program features that encourage retention, such as structured training, high case volume, and a culture of camaraderie. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- This podcast is supported by RADPAD® Radiation Protectionhttps://www.radpad.com/ --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction04:31 - From Biomedical Engineering to IR07:41 - Recruitment Committee Mission12:37 - Match Trends Warning Sign15:12 - Survey Design Demographics20:21 - What Factors Matter25:04 - Why Residents Consider Switching30:23 - Recommendation 1 IR Curriculum32:32 - Recommendation 2 More IR Rotation34:10 - Recommendation 3 Build Camaraderie38:30 - Advice for Residents Who Are Doubting41:00 - What's Next for RFS Recruitment43:20 - Wrap Up --- More about this episode The conversation explores free-response themes from the survey, where 78 percent of residents cited lifestyle concerns, 31 percent pointed to job market uncertainty, and 22 percent mentioned call experience as reasons for questioning IR.

In this episode, Anab Jain talks about her new book, Designing Questions, and her work at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. The focus is on the Design Investigations degree programme, which views design as the process of posing questions rather than finding solutions. Jain also explains the concept of a 'second education', which develops practical skills and encourages critical and systemic thinking. She discusses the importance of making as a process of discovery ('thinking through making'), speculative design and the responsibility of designers in the face of global crises.
Why is Gen Z choosing loans over credit cards in India? Younger Indians are changing how they borrow, spend and enter the formal credit system, with phone loans, consumer finance and personal loans increasingly becoming their first experience with credit.In this episode of The Core Report Weekend Edition, Financial Journalist Govindraj Ethiraj speaks with Bhavesh Jain, MD & CEO, TransUnion CIBIL, about why Gen Z is choosing loans over credit cards, the rapid growth of consumer credit in India and what changing borrowing behaviour tells us about the Indian economy.India's credit-active population has risen sharply over the past decade. But an equally important shift is taking place in how Indians borrow. Younger consumers are increasingly entering the credit market through phone financing and consumer durable loans rather than credit cards. UPI has also transformed how Indians make everyday payments, while personal loans and point-of-sale financing have given borrowers more alternatives to traditional cards.So are credit cards losing relevance with younger Indians?The conversation looks at why India's credit card market has recently seen slower growth in cardholders, why existing users are accumulating multiple cards and why accessibility and convenience are reshaping consumer finance.Govindraj and Bhavesh also examine the extraordinary rise of gold loans, growing participation by women borrowers, rising formal credit in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Madhya Pradesh, and how India's MSMEs are increasingly using working capital loans.They also discuss the bigger economic question behind India's borrowing boom. Credit can fuel consumption, entrepreneurship and economic growth, but what happens when leverage among younger borrowers rises too quickly?Watch the full conversation for a data-driven look at Gen Z borrowing, credit cards in India, consumer loans, UPI, CIBIL scores, gold loans, MSME credit, financial inclusion and the changing Indian economy.Chapters(01:22) The Biggest Credit Trends of the Last Decade(02:13) Why 28% of Indians Are Now Credit Active(02:41) Credit Growth and India's Economic Expansion(03:22) The Shift From New-to-Credit to Existing Borrowers(04:27) Gen Z Is Reshaping India's Credit Market(05:07) Why Young Indians Finance Phones Before Homes(05:55) Business Owners Are Borrowing Personally(07:04) Gold Loans: India's Fastest Growing Credit Segment(08:11) Why Women Are Using Gold Loans for Business(08:38) Women, Gen Z & Credit-Mature Borrowers(09:30) Why Checking Your CIBIL Score Matters(10:36) Credit Growth Beyond India's Metro Cities(11:36) Uttar Pradesh Emerges as India's Credit Leader(13:39) Inside India's MSME Credit Story(14:14) Why 88% of MSME Credit Goes to Small Businesses(14:49) How MSMEs Improved Credit Quality After COVID(16:45) Why Working Capital Loans Are Dominating(17:31) Banks Are Rewarding Low-Risk Borrowers(17:56) India's Massive MSME Credit Opportunity(19:30) Retail Credit Health: Delinquencies & Debt(21:57) Has Credit Growth Become Too Aggressive?(24:10) The Rise of Digital Lending & AI Underwriting(26:59) Why UPI Is Transforming India's Credit Ecosystem(28:13) The Future of Consumer Lending in India(31:00) Can India Reach Developed-Market Credit Levels?(33:00) Building a Credit-Fit India(36:14) Advice for Every MSME OwnerWhy is Gen Z choosing loans over credit cards in India?

In this episode I discuss the book Understanding Social Images: Essays on Visual Methods and Teaching Anthropology (Berghahn, 2025) with co-editors David Zeitlyn and Chihab El Khachab, a posthumous collection of writings by the late anthropologist Marcus Banks. Banks was a key the figures in development of visual anthropology, but his work remains of continuing relevance. This volume brings together several of his essays on film, photography, archive work, as well as reflections of visual methods such as photo-elicitation and ways of teaching visual anthroplogy. The conversation begins with Marcus Banks himself, his place within anthropology, his influence on visual anthropology, and the broader effort to preserve and extend his work through a set of posthumous collections. From there, the discussion turns to one of the central themes that emerge from across several essays, namely, that images are not simply illustrations or transparent representations, but socially and temporally situated objects with disctinct social lives. From there, we discuss Banks's interest in the materiality of the visual and how the circulation and afterlives of images gather new meaning over time. A substantial part of the interview focuses on Banks's film Raju and His Friends (1988), which proved foundational to his later reflections on ethnographic filmmaking, and especially on the ethics and politics of representation. As well as providing an introduction to Marcus Banks's work and serving as a tribute to a scholar whose influence continues to shape the field, many of the topics covered in the interview touches on many broader questions in anthropology itself, and as such will be of interest not only to students of visual anthropology, but to anthropology students and anthropologists more generally. David Zeitlyn is Professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Oxford and a Fellow of Wolfson College. His work spans visual anthropology, photography and archives, religion and divination, and long-term fieldwork in Cameroon. He also collaborated with Marcus Banks on the second edition of Visual Methods in Social Research. Chihab El Khachab is Associate Professor in Visual Anthropology at the University of Oxford and a Fellow of Wolfson College. He is a social anthropologist specializing in visual and media anthropology, especially Egyptian media production, and is the author of Making Film in Egypt: How Labor, Technology, and Mediation Shape the Industry.

How is technology changing the way we think—and are we unknowingly outsourcing our minds?In this insightful episode of The Brand Called You, Ashutosh Garg speaks with Sanjay Jain, Former CMD of Accenture and author of Are We Outsourcing Our Minds?, about the evolving relationship between technology, artificial intelligence, and human cognition.Drawing on more than four decades of leadership experience in strategy, consulting, technology, and outsourcing, Sanjay reflects on the defining moments of his career before exploring one of today's most pressing questions: Are digital tools making us more capable, or are they gradually weakening our ability to think independently?The conversation examines the neurological impact of calculators, smartphones, handwriting, and Generative AI on memory, reasoning, learning, and decision-making. Sanjay also explains the Flynn Effect, cognitive offloading, and why curiosity remains one of the most important human capabilities in an age of instant answers.Whether you're a leader, educator, parent, student, or lifelong learner, this episode offers practical strategies for using technology wisely—leveraging it to enhance human intelligence rather than replace it.If you're interested in the future of AI, cognitive science, leadership, and lifelong learning, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

In this episode I discuss the book Understanding Social Images: Essays on Visual Methods and Teaching Anthropology (Berghahn, 2025) with co-editors David Zeitlyn and Chihab El Khachab, a posthumous collection of writings by the late anthropologist Marcus Banks. Banks was a key the figures in development of visual anthropology, but his work remains of continuing relevance. This volume brings together several of his essays on film, photography, archive work, as well as reflections of visual methods such as photo-elicitation and ways of teaching visual anthroplogy. The conversation begins with Marcus Banks himself, his place within anthropology, his influence on visual anthropology, and the broader effort to preserve and extend his work through a set of posthumous collections. From there, the discussion turns to one of the central themes that emerge from across several essays, namely, that images are not simply illustrations or transparent representations, but socially and temporally situated objects with disctinct social lives. From there, we discuss Banks's interest in the materiality of the visual and how the circulation and afterlives of images gather new meaning over time. A substantial part of the interview focuses on Banks's film Raju and His Friends (1988), which proved foundational to his later reflections on ethnographic filmmaking, and especially on the ethics and politics of representation. As well as providing an introduction to Marcus Banks's work and serving as a tribute to a scholar whose influence continues to shape the field, many of the topics covered in the interview touches on many broader questions in anthropology itself, and as such will be of interest not only to students of visual anthropology, but to anthropology students and anthropologists more generally.

After spending a decade building a successful consulting career, Nikita Jain made the difficult decision to walk away from a path toward partnership and become a first-time founder. She shares how she navigated family concerns, found the right co-founder after more than 50 conversations, balanced entrepreneurship with her marriage and personal well-being, and discovered that building a company isn't about having the perfect plan—it's about consistently taking action, learning, and moving forward.

Every customer service call now produces a measurable outcome, which is exactly why customer experience has become the place where agentic AI either proves itself or falls apart. Most enterprise AI hype centres on generation and productivity. But according to Sneha Iyer, who leads AI value delivery and analytics at Observe.ai, the real test of agentic AI is happening somewhere less flashy, which is the contact centre. In a recent episode of Tech Transformed, host Ravit Jain asked Iyer why customer experience (CX) has become the industry's default stress test and what that means for enterprises still sorting isolated chatbots from genuine AI agents. Iyer has spent nearly a decade watching CX change from manual quality assurance to a blended workforce of human and AI agents. This shift, she says, has quietly rewritten the metrics, tooling, and governance decisions every enterprise leader now has to make.Why Customer Experience Became AI's Testing GroundIyer explains that CX generates more human-AI interaction data than almost any other business function. Every conversation resolves in a clear outcome, resolved or not, retained or churned, and it spans every modality a company touches, from voice to chat to email. Solve AI reliability here, and the lessons transfer everywhere else.What's actually changed, she notes, isn't that AI got smarter; it's that AI stopped just watching and started acting. Where AI agents once flagged patterns in a transcript after the fact, they now issue refunds, verify identities, and book appointments in real time. This has split the workforce in two, namely, AI agents absorb the high-volume, low-risk interactions, while human agents get pushed toward the complex, judgment-heavy calls machines shouldn't handle alone. Old metrics like containment and deflection no longer capture that split; leaders now need blended resolution measures that account for both.Fragmented AI StacksIf you ask most contact centres what their AI stack looks like, you'll find what Iyer calls a "Frankenstein stack": one tool for analytics, another for telephony, another for conversational intelligence, stitched together and barely talking to each other. That setup was tolerable when each tool did one isolated job. It breaks the moment you add agentic AI, because these types of systems depend on shared context to function.Without that context, a customer verified by an AI agent has to repeat everything to the human agent who picks up next, which turns an already frustrating support call into a worse one. Fragmented tools also make it nearly impossible to prove ROI, since every vendor tracks success differently and costs stack with each new integration.This is the case for unified CX platforms: not as a nice-to-have, but as the only way to preserve context across a customer's full journey. Iyer points to "companion agents" as a concrete example of real-time, in-context support for human agents that shows them exactly why an AI agent escalated a call and what happened before they picked up.Build vs. BuyOn the build-versus-buy question, Iyer highlights that building in-house looks cheap upfront and rarely stays that way. Models change every few weeks, which turns any custom build into a permanent maintenance commitment most teams underestimate, including in regulated industries like healthcare and finance, where leaders often assume building keeps data safer. In practice, established vendors have already solved the compliance groundwork, data residency, model governance, and audit trails that a custom build would take months to replicate.Trust, she argues, isn't really about doubting AI's competence. It's the fear of the one catastrophic interaction happening at scale. That's what simulation testing and evaluation frameworks are for, stress-testing AI agents against the hardest, most ambiguous scenarios before launch, not just the easy paths, backed by governance frameworks that can roll back a deployment fast if something breaks.Looking six to twelve months out, Iyer expects three shifts, continued consolidation around unified platforms, evaluation frameworks becoming the real competitive edge (not raw model performance), and pricing models moving from seat-based to outcome-based. Her advice to leaders is to build auditability and governance into your AI strategy now, before regulation forces the issue.Building Customer ExperienceThe throughline of Iyer's conversation with Jain is that agentic AI in customer experience succeeds or fails on infrastructure and trust, not on which model you're running. Enterprises that unify their data, rethink their success metrics, and choose vendors who can prove reliability through thorough testing are the ones positioned to scale AI-driven CX without breaking it.

Two listeners. Two encounters with something that briefly lifted the veil and then sealed it back up.On her porch outside Asheville, Reva feels something enter through her ribs and move slowly through her body like she's a corridor it happened to pass through. For forty-five seconds she knows things, that the world we see is a thin film stretched over something unbearably crowded. Then it leaves, taking the knowledge with it, and drains away all but one surviving fragment: there are more of them than there are of us.Then Luca is on a Malvern ridge he's walked since he was a teenager when the slope below him turns black. A flat, perfect, geometric disc cut into the hillside, radiating deep heat from somewhere far down. Then it contracts inward and seals shut with a smoothness that earth should not have. Not like it's gone. Like it's finished.Producer Dom unpacks the dark folklore: the Jain nigoda that fill every empty inch, the Kabbalist Pardes that broke three of the four who entered, the ultra-terrestrial intelligence beneath the surface, and the Roman mundus that opened so what's below could look up.What happens when reality lifts its filter for a moment… and then decides you weren't meant to keep what you saw?A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

What does it take to write the very first check into a company that has almost nothing to show yet, sometimes not even a finished idea?Afore Capital helped invent the pre-seed category. When Gaurav Jain and Anamitra Banerji started the firm ten years ago, "pre-seed" was almost a slight, a label for founders who couldn't raise a proper seed round. They set out to build the world's largest pre-seed fund anyway, closing $47 million on a $40 million target, and every fund since has closed above plan. Afore now runs more than $500 million across four funds, with top-quartile DPI on the first three. The idea has become so mainstream that when Sequoia launched its latest fund, it said, "I guess we're pre-seed investors too."The real substance of the conversation is how Gaurav thinks. He is clear about what matters most in venture, and the order tends to surprise people. Being in the very best companies matters more than anything else, ownership comes after that, and the entry price that so many investors fixate on matters least, because fifty per cent of zero is still zero. He is also convinced that the genuine bottleneck is talent. There is a great deal of money in the world and very few people who can build something truly large, which is why at the earliest stage founders tend to choose their investors as much as investors choose them. You give a founder a million dollars with no collateral, and then you still have to convince them to take it. A pre-seed pitch, he says, is almost entirely storytelling with very little data behind it.If you want to understand how the earliest checks actually get written, and what it really costs to say no, this episode is worth your time.00:00 - Trailer01:00 - From Dehradun to Google to starting Afore02:08 - The Waterloo co-op that talked him out of every job03:18 - Back when "pre-seed" was an insult05:44 - When Sequoia said "I guess we're pre-seed investors too"07:26 - Afore's three products, and the experiments that failed09:01 - Hightouch was a travel company when they invested11:02 - Goldcast: no visa, no money, funded anyway12:07 - The through line is always the team14:44 - The Ramp miss17:24 - "Founders pick us more than we pick them"18:45 - The constraint isn't capital, it's talent22:24 - The Solana miss, when it was still Loom Protocol24:46 - Ramp's Super Bowl ad, the buses, his wife's business25:32 - What he looks for in founders28:50 - Coachability, happy ears, and the Mom Test31:28 - The biggest mistake: falling in love with the idea35:04 - The three things that matter, and "50% of zero is still zero"39:25 - "100% storytelling, 0% data"41:25 - Investing in India, and the fear of being dumb capital44:41 - "Sign the deal before Monday"47:26 - One engineer now does the job of 2051:43 - Raising from LPs, the undiscussed part of VC-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

In this episode of The Product Podcast by Product School, Carlos González de Villaumbrosia sits down with Saral Jain, SVP of Engineering at Snapchat, the last independent social platform operating at global scale, with 956 million monthly active users closing in on the one billion mark and a community that opens the app more than 30 times a day. Saral joined Snap nine years ago, right around the IPO, after nearly a decade leading engineering teams at Amazon Web Services, and today leads all engineering for Snapchat, spanning product experiences, multi-cloud infrastructure, and the company's machine learning and generative AI platforms.What you'll learn:How Snap lets designers and product managers ship production code, with an AI agent running the first review pass on 90% of code within 5 minutesWhat Casper is: the AI teammate any team at Snap can invoke from Slack or Jira to build a working prototype from a conversationHow Snap turned company-wide AI adoption into business impact after early prototypes were being built and thrown awayHow lean startup squads mix engineers, designers, and data scientists to launch zero-to-one bets inside a mature platformKey takeaways:Quality control does not have to slow down who gets to ship, it has to change what reviews the work firstWidespread AI adoption is not the same as business impact, and the gap between the two is where most AI investment is being wasted right nowSmall, cross-functional teams with blurred roles can move faster than traditional org structures, even inside a billion-user companyCredits:Host: Carlos Gonzalez de VillaumbrosiaGuest: Saral JainSocial Links:Find out more about Product School hereFollow our Podcast on TikTok hereFollow Product School on LinkedIn here
Series Description Disclosure is a three-part podcast series from the Docs with Disabilities Podcast that examines one of the most personal and consequential decisions disabled healthcare providers make: whether, when, and how to disclose a disability. Through the voices of medical students, residents, practicing physicians, psychologists, nurses, researchers, legal scholars, and disability advocates, the series explores disclosure as an ongoing process shaped by identity, institutional culture, ableism, and power. Blending lived experience with research and policy, the series challenges assumptions about disability in healthcare while illuminating pathways toward more inclusive learning, training, and practice environments. Part 2: Medical Culture, Stigma, and What Prevents Disclosure Why does disability disclosure feel so difficult—and for many, unsafe—in healthcare? In the second episode of the Disclosure series, we move beyond individual disclosure decisions to examine the culture of medicine itself. Through the perspectives of physicians, researchers, allied health professionals, disability scholars, and trainees, this episode explores how the hidden curriculum, stigma, institutional practices, and everyday interactions shape whether disabled healthcare professionals feel they belong. Contributors reflect on the burdens of seeking accommodations, the impact of ableist assumptions, the complexities of partial disclosure, and the ways colleagues, mentors, and institutional norms influence identity safety. Together, these stories reveal that disclosure is never simply an individual choice—it is a reflection of the culture in which it occurs and a catalyst for reimagining a more inclusive future for healthcare.

“You show me the incentive and I’ll show you the behavior,” says Sach Jain, founder and CEO of Carrum Health. Jain joins Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Jonathan Palmer to explain why misaligned incentives sit at the heart of specialty care’s cost problem. Jain details how Carrum built a value-based marketplace around curated centers of excellence, surgeon-level quality data, bundled payments and provider risk, giving employers more predictable costs while offering patients a guided care path with fewer surprise bills. He also discusses specialty care’s $2.5 trillion annual spending, Carrum’s reach across almost 7 million lives, its expanding health-plan partnerships and why AI can either intensify the fee-for-service arms race or help providers prevent complications when incentives are aligned.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Series Description Disclosure is a three-part podcast series from the Docs with Disabilities Podcast that examines one of the most personal and consequential decisions disabled healthcare providers make: whether, when, and how to disclose a disability. Through the voices of medical students, residents, practicing physicians, psychologists, nurses, researchers, legal scholars, and disability advocates, the series explores disclosure as an ongoing process shaped by identity, institutional culture, ableism, and power. Blending lived experience with research and policy, the series challenges assumptions about disability in healthcare while illuminating pathways toward more inclusive learning, training, and practice environments. Part 1: The Decision to Disclose What does it really mean to disclose a disability in healthcare? In the first episode of the Disclosure series, healthcare providers across the continuum—from students and trainees to practicing clinicians—share the personal, professional, and institutional factors that shape disclosure decisions. Drawing on stories from medical students, residents, physicians, researchers, disability scholars, and legal experts, the episode explores disclosure as more than a pathway to accommodations—it can be an act of identity, advocacy, community-building, and resistance. At the same time, contributors examine the risks of stigma, discrimination, and institutional betrayal that continue to make disclosure a deeply complex and often uncertain decision.

This is how Snapchat sets itself apart in the social media space: they're not a social media company. Today, we're talking to Saral Jain, SVP and Head of Engineering at Snapchat, about how one of tech's most underestimated companies is quietly outpacing giants. We discuss why Snapchat has always refused to call itself a social media company and what that distinction means for every product decision they make, how AI is actually changing the day-to-day reality of software engineering through autonomous coding agents like their internal tool Casper, and why the skills that matter most in the AI era have less to do with writing code and everything to do with taste, judgment, and the willingness to raise your hand. All of this right here, right now, on the Modern CTO Podcast!

In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Jinesha Jain, Senior Analyst and TEDx Speaker, to explore the hidden pressures that often accompany ambition and achievement. Despite advancing quickly in her personal and professional life, Jinesha realized that success had come with an invisible cost when her mother observed that she no longer carried the same smile she once had. That moment became a turning point, prompting Jinesha to reevaluate what true success and well-being really mean. That realization led Jinesha to discover Bhramari pranayama, or "humming bee breath," a yogic breathing practice that helped her reduce stress, improve focus, and reconnect with herself. Together, Mary and Jinesha explore the importance of internal growth alongside external success, reminding women that sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause, realign with what matters most, and care for ourselves while pursuing our goals.

ONCE UPON A time in India, a man lived. He would go on to become one of the most influential thinkers in new-age thought, but at this time — the early 1960s — he was merely a philosophy teacher, and one of thousands of gurus living and discoursing in that land of gurus. His name was Chandra Mohan Jain. But even then, just a few years out of graduate school, Jain was different. To call him charismatic would be a colossal understatement. By all accounts, this man could look into your eyes and speak to you for a half hour, and you would hurry home to sell all your earthly possessions to stay near him. He was charismatic enough that, by 1966, he was drawing big enough crowds and making fat enough cash on the speaking circuit to quit his teaching job at the University of Jabalpur, seven years after taking it, to focus on his “side hustle” as an independent guru.
