"It was pretty apparent to me that something was going on with him," says Kristi Levine, describing the realization that, based on her experience as a Montessori teacher, her infant son, Trey, was missing developmental milestones. Unfortunately, Kristi's hunch turned out to be correct and Trey was later diagnosed with a rare genetic mutation called CACNA1A which is impacting his motor skills, balance, coordination and speech. Kristi and her husband, Eric, join host Michael Carrese on this installment in our Year of the Zebraseries to help us understand the disorder and its implications for Trey and their family, which includes Trey's older sister Stella. “There's a lot of guilt involved in being a parent of a child who has a disability because you never feel like you're doing enough,” shares Eric, even though they both work full time and have becoming experts at juggling work, caregiving, advocating, and volunteering with the CACNA1A Foundation. In this candid interview, Eric and Kristi discuss the challenges of parenting a child with complex medical needs, the importance of community support, the ongoing search for treatment options, and share some advice for clinicians caring for patients and families living with rare disorders. “We just want medical professionals to respect and understand what we're dealing with on a day-to-day basis and to see our kids holistically, and not just try to fix the problem medically. Understand that for us, the biggest thing that we want for our kids is just their quality of life.”Mentioned in this episode:CACNA1A Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this second episode in the 3-part clinical leadership series, I explore the 'lesson planning trap'—a common situation where clinicians focus so much on perfecting individual sessions and miss broader opportunities for impact.I experienced this myself, spending years creating detailed therapy plans while seeing little change at the systems level. Then I realized the importance of distinguishing between planning for individual therapy and planning for effective service delivery. This insight transformed my practice and leadership approach.Today, I'll share how you can take your intervention skills and scale them for lasting change in your school or organization. Key Points:✅ Applying effective intervention principles to enhance service delivery.✅ Understanding the difference between therapy planning and service delivery planning.✅ Introducing scalable protocols that maximize your impact.✅ Evaluating your current strategies for scalability.✅ Utilizing intervention principles in team leadership situations.In this episode, I mentioned “The School Leader's Guide to Executive Functioning Support”, a 7-day course to help school leaders launch their executive functioning implementation plan.

Jessica Malaty Rivera is an infectious disease epidemiologist and science communicator renowned for making complex public health information accessible, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. While initially premed at USC, she pivoted to studying health promotion and disease prevention, and worked in the nonprofit sector after college. She was later recruited to research emerging biological threats at Georgetown University and simultaneously decided to pursue a master's degree there in biohazardous threat agents and emerging infectious diseases. While she's always loved science, she began to realize that where she truly excelled was in “speaking science.” And the deeper Rivera got into infectious disease epidemiology—whether through work or academia—the more she realized how critical the communications aspect of science was to public health. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, she joined The Atlantic to lend her expertise to the COVID Tracking Project to provide publicly available, comprehensive data on COVID-19 cases in real time. She then began using Instagram to explain and interpret global health news, unexpectedly gaining a large following for her easy-to-understand information. Over the past five years, she has grown her platform, launched a Substack, and is currently completing a Doctorate in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University, all while remaining dedicated to science facts and public health literacy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Historian Martha S. Jones was looking through a book one day when she found a section mentioning her grandfather. It referred to her grandfather as white. But in reality, her grandfather’s father was a free man of color, and his mother was born enslaved. This wasn’t the first time her family’s racial identity was questioned, so she started writing down her version of her family’s history. It's that history, and her family's relationship to racial identity, that she explores in her new book The Trouble of Color: An American Family Memoir. GUEST: Martha S. Jones: The Society of Black Alumni Presidential Professor, Professor of History and Professor at the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University. Her latest book is The Trouble of Color: An American Family Memoir. Special thanks to our interns Angelica Gajewski and Kathy Wang.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) was once thought of as a condition that affects only children. The belief was that children would grow out of it, but research has shown that the condition often persists throughout life. In fact, ADHD is the second most prevalent psychiatric disorder in adults, but many misconceptions still exist about it. On this episode, host Sara Frueh is joined by David Goodman, an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and director of the Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Center of Maryland. Goodman has treated adults with ADHD for over 40 years. Goodman explains how ADHD affects adults, the complexities in how it's diagnosed and treated, and open questions for research in the field. Resources: Visit the Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Center of Maryland's website to learn more about adult ADHD, and find links to more of David Goodman's research, interviews, and publications. The American Professional Society of ADHD and Related Disorders will release guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of ADHD in late 2025. Check out their website to learn more.

And someone even did a dissertation on TBO.About Craig RandallCraig Randall is developing relational trust between principals and teachers, leading to risk-taking and growth. Author of Trust-Based ObservationsTrust-Based Observations, a book about a transformative method of doing teacher observations. In a nutshell the book and model are designed to help show administrators how to build trusting differentiated relationships with each of their teachers such that teachers are willing to work through uncomfortable feelings of vulnerability and embrace taking big risks to grow their practice. The model also directly connects the observation process to annual action research goals and schoolwide professional development through the creation of professional development communities tied directly to TBO areas of pedagogy.

Mast cell activation syndrome isn't widely recognized, but for many women, it may explain years of pain, fatigue, and hormone related chaos no one could solve.I see a lot of patients who are struggling with fatigue, pain, and hormone symptoms that don't seem to make sense on paper. And I've noticed a pattern but I wanted to talk to someone who lives in the complexity of it every day.Dr. Tania Dempsey, is one of the few physicians who's helped bring mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) into the spotlight. Years ago, she was treating a patient who just wasn't getting better until she stumbled on a paper about mast cells that changed everything. That one article led to a phone call, a new way of thinking, and a career shifting collaboration with one of the leading voices in the field.In this conversation, we explore how MCAS shows up in gynecology especially in cases involving PCOS, perimenopause, and unexplained pelvic pain. We discuss why some patients are unusually sensitive to progesterone, how inflammation fuels insulin resistance, and what's actually going on when mast cells become overactive. We also get into the clinical triad so many of us see MCAS, hypermobility, and POTS and how they often appear together in patients who are struggling to get answers.Tania also talks about how she built her practice by spending more time listening to her patients and trusting that their symptoms meant something, even when the labs didn't show it. Highlights:What mast cells do and how they become overactive in MCAS.The overlooked link between PCOS, perimenopause, and mast cell dysfunction.Why some patients react badly to progesterone—and what to do about it.How GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic may help calm inflammation in MCAS.What to know before seeking a diagnosis or starting treatment.If this episode opened your eyes or gave you language for what you've been going through, please subscribe, leave a review, and drop a comment. I'd love to hear what resonated most with you.Dr. Dempsey's Bio:Dr. Tania Dempsey, MD, ABIHM is a world-renowned expert in complex, multisystem diseases. As founder of the AIM Center of Personalized Medicine, in Purchase, NY, Dr. Dempsey uses functional and integrative medicine to get to the patient's root cause(s) of illness and to help them find a path to optimum health. Her extensive knowledge and experience with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, Mold, and Lyme and other Vector-Borne Diseases, has propelled her to the forefront of the medical community as a recognized and trusted speaker, researcher, advocate, and physician.Dr. Dempsey is Board-Certified in Internal Medicine and Integrative and Holistic Medicine. She received her MD degree from The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and her BS degree from Cornell University. She completed her Internal Medicine Residency at NYU Medical Center.She was recently elected to the Board of Directors of ILADS (International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society).

We have a special guest on today's episode whose voice will be familiar to regular listeners. Last year at this time, Dr. Raven Baxter occupied the Raise the Line host chair for a special ten-part series we produced in collaboration with the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness (CoRe) at Mount Sinai in New York City, where she serves as the Director of Science Communication. The series explored the latest understandings of post-acute infection syndromes -- such as Chronic Lyme and Long COVID -- with an array of experts from the Center and other researchers and providers. In this episode, we check-in with Dr. Baxter to get an update on the work of the Cohen Center, especially with regard to its mission to educate providers. “We're building programs so that clinicians can earn credit for learning about chronic illnesses that are infection associated, and we've also developed a 200-page provider manual. I really think that we will be able to shift the narrative that currently exists,” Dr. Baxter tells host Michael Carrese. That narrative includes lingering skepticism among providers of some infection-associated illnesses, which Dr. Baxter witnessed herself as a Long COVID patient, an experience that has added meaningful perspective to her work. Dr. Baxter is also working on her own time to advance knowledge and combat misinformation through a robust social media presence as “The Science Maven” and helps other scientists and clinicians to do the same. "If we're not there to fill in that void, other people will fill it for us and the narrative may not be consistent with the truth or facts." This is a great opportunity to learn about the art and science of communications that can reach clinicians and patients alike.Mentioned in this episode:Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic IllnessThe Science Maven If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

While the Trump administration was eager to jettison the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal in its first term, it now seems serious about negotiating another agreement in its second. And Iran, though wary of that seriousness and fearful of U.S. military action, appears willing to give negotiations a chance. What are the prospects for success and the appetite for meaningful engagement with Iran? How would an agreement differ from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal? And if diplomacy fails, is American and Israeli military action against Iranian nuclear sites inevitable? Join Aaron David Miller as he engages Suzanne Maloney, the vice president and director of the Foreign Policy program at the Brookings Institution, and Vali Nasr, the Majid Khadduri Professor of International Affairs and Middle East Studies at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies, on these and other issues on the next Carnegie Connects.
The Defense Department is taking a closer look at how it supports military families who choose to homeschool their children. In a recent memo, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth directed the under secretary of defense for personnel and readiness to conduct a departmentwide review of the current support available to homeschooling military families, including the feasibility of providing resources for those students. A recent study from Johns Hopkins University found that around 12% of military families chose to homeschool their children in 2024 — that's double the rate of civilian families.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Chuck Todd starts with new polling showing Trump's damaging down ballot effect on the Republican party and highlights some key races for the upcoming midterm elections.Then, he sits down with New York Times reporters Michael Schwirtz and Jane Bradley to discuss their explosive investigation into Russia's sophisticated "spy factory" operation in Brazil. The reporters reveal how they uncovered a years-long Russian intelligence program that used Brazil as the perfect cover to create false identities for spies who would then be deployed around the world. The discussion explores how the Ukraine war may have intensified efforts to uncover these operations, and details the meticulous process Russian operatives used to obtain authentic Brazilian birth certificates and build elaborate backstories for their agents.The conversation delves into the remarkable scope of this espionage network, including how one spy successfully infiltrated Johns Hopkins University as a student, before being caught by Brazilian authorities. Schwirtz and Bradley discuss the similarities between their real-world investigation and the plot of "The Americans," the complaints from captured spies about their Russian handlers, and how this program's roots trace back to Cold War tactics. The interview also touches on broader questions about American engagement in Latin America, Brazil's surprisingly robust rule of law, and the ongoing challenges facing international journalism, including reporting in conflict zones like Ukraine and the risks of travel to Russia.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the Ask Chuck segment regarding small state primaries, whether an atheist could ever be elected president and Democratic messaging.Timeline:00:00 Introduction01:30 Trump is putting the Republican party in a precarious position for midterms03:30 Trump's only big win is the border04:00 Swing voters wanted lower prices and aren't getting them04:30 Every election is now a “change” election06:30 Trump has become the party08:00 Republicans won't have anything that's easy to sell to the public09:30 New Texas poll shows Trump's growing unpopularity12:00 Shrinking the size of government is popular with voters13:15 Bad economic approval is a warning for Republicans16:00 Incumbency may be a big problem for John Cornyn18:00 New Michigan poll released on senate race19:30 Michigan poll shows anti-incumbent bias in voters20:30 Lindsay Graham in a closer than expected race22:15 Michael Schwirtz & Jane Bradley join the Chuck ToddCast! 23:55 What is the origin story of their story on Brazil's "Spy Factory" 24:45 Did the Ukraine war cause countries to double efforts to uncover spies? 27:15 Were the feds in Brazil aware of this spy operation? 30:25 Brazil was the perfect place to create cover identities for spies 31:45 The spy operation was years in the making 32:45 Investigations into spies' birth certificates showed they weren't doctored 34:45 Other Latin American countries are investigating as well 35:45 Was the spy ring uncovered in America in 2010 related to this program? 37:15 The goal wasn't to infiltrate Brazil specifically, but move spies abroad 38:15 The most "successful" spy was arrested by Brazilian authorities 39:30 One spy infiltrated John Hopkins university posing as a student 41:30 Has Putin punished any of the spies that were caught? 43:15 It feels like this story was a plot ripped straight from "The Americans" 44:30 The spies that talked complained about their bosses 45:30 Does America run similar "spy factories?" 48:15 Western agencies don't have the same spy budgets as the Russians 50:15 The seeds of the spy program go back to the Cold War 52:30 Are Brazilian authorities extra motivated to get to the bottom of this? 53:45 Brazil's rule of law is stronger than we give it credit for 55:15 Is this a failure of American engagement in Latin America? 58:00 What other threads are they pulling in their investigation? 1:00:00 When was Michael last in Ukraine? 1:01:30 Does the Times still have reporters in Russia? 1:02:45 Should Americans avoid travel to Russia? 1:05:00 Does the espionage reporting beat make spy TV shows less watchable?1:05:40 Chuck's thoughts on interview1:06:10 Ask Chuck1:06:55 Why is America stuck with a first, single small state primary format?1:09:00Will America ever elect a president that's atheist or agnostic?1:16:15 Why are Democrats so clueless at messaging?(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)

In this episode, we dive deep with educational consultant and innovator Dr. Kate Anderson Foley, who challenges conventional wisdom about student support systems and offers a fresh perspective on educational leadership. Dr. Anderson Foley's shares revolutionary ideas about restructuring intervention frameworks and explains why some traditional approaches may be limiting student potential.Episode Highlights:✅ The Double Helix Model - Dr. Anderson Foley introduces her groundbreaking concept comparing educational support systems to DNA's double helix structure, demonstrating how interwoven approaches create stronger outcomes than linear interventions, and why we shouldn't label students according to tiers. ✅ Restructuring RtI Tiers - We explore Dr. Anderson Foley's compelling case for removing the traditional tiered structure of Response to Intervention, discussing how these artificial divisions can create barriers to providing students with appropriate support at critical moments.✅ Cross-Pollination of Services - Dr. Anderson Foley flips conventional thinking by arguing that what's often labeled as "duplication of services" actually represents valuable cross-pollination of educational approaches, creating richer learning environments and multiple pathways for student growth.✅ High-Quality vs. Traditional Tutoring - We distinguish between standard tutoring and "high-quality tutoring," examining the specific elements that transform supplemental instruction into transformative educational experiences.✅ Agile vs. Waterfall Leadership - Dr. Anderson Foley contrasts traditional "waterfall" leadership models with agile approaches, explaining how educational leaders can create more responsive, adaptive systems by implementing initiatives in shorter releases and using data to make adjustments sooner, rather than later. Our conversation challenges listeners to reconsider fundamental assumptions about educational interventions and offers practical strategies for transforming support systems to better serve all students. Dr. Anderson Foley's innovative perspectives provide valuable insights for educators, administrators, and policy makers seeking to create more effective and equitable educational environments.Dr. Anderson Foley is Founder & CEO of the Education Policy & Practice Group, an international keynote speaker, and Harvard Medical School Institute of Coaching Fellow.

Last year, AI and machine learning startups raked in about half of all VC funding in North America. And so far this year, AI is still leading the pack. But a huge chunk of the money in the Q1 — $40 billion — went to one player: OpenAI. So is there still room for smaller, more focused startups in the AI gold rush? Or will it be a case of “winner takes all?” In this live conversation at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center's inaugural Discovery Series, Kara speaks with Gary Rivlin, author of “AI Valley: Microsoft, Google and the Trillion-Dollar Race to Cash In on Artificial Intelligence,” and Christy Wyskiel, senior advisor to the president of Johns Hopkins University for innovation and entrepreneurship and the executive director of Johns Hopkins Technology Ventures. The three discuss the impact of government cuts on AI research, how small AI startups can compete with the tech giants, and how AI could revolutionize health care.

Nan Z. Da, in her book The Chinese Tragedy of King Lear, finds unsettling parallels between Shakespeare's play and 20th-century China under Mao Zedong. Da, a literature professor at Johns Hopkins University, weaves together personal history and literary analysis to reveal how King Lear reflects—and even anticipates—the emotional and political horrors of authoritarian regimes. From public punishments to desperate displays of flattery, from state paranoia to family betrayal, she shows how Shakespeare's tragedy resonates with the lived experiences of generations shaped by Maoism. She joins us to discuss the story of her family in Mao's China and why Lear may be Shakespeare's most “Chinese” play. Nan Z. Da is an associate professor of English at Johns Hopkins University. Prior to that, she taught for nine years at the University of Notre Dame. She is the author of Intransitive Encounters: Sino-US Literatures and the Limits of Exchange and co-editor of the Thinking Literature series.

The AI revolution is underway, and the U.S. and China are racing to the top. At the heart of this competition are semiconductors—especially advanced GPUs that power everything from natural language processing to autonomous weapons. The U.S. is betting that export controls can help check China's technological ambitions. But will this containment strategy work—or could it inadvertently accelerate China's drive for self-sufficiency? Those who think chip controls will work argue that restricting China's access gives the U.S. critical breathing room to advance AI safely, set global norms, and maintain dominance. Those who believe chip controls are inadequate, or could backfire, warn that domestic chipmakers, like Nvidia and Intel, also rely on sales from China. Cutting off access could harm U.S. competitiveness in the long run, especially if other countries don't fully align with U.S. policy. As the race for AI supremacy intensifies, we debate the question: Can the U.S. Outpace China in AI Through Chip Controls? Arguing Yes: Lindsay Gorman, Managing Director and Senior Fellow of the German Marshall Fund's Technology Program; Venture Scientist at Deep Science Ventures Will Hurd, Former U.S. Representative and CIA Officer Arguing No: Paul Triolo, Senior Vice President and Partner at DGA-Albright Stonebridge Group Susan Thornton, Former Diplomat; Visiting Lecturer in Law and Senior Fellow at the Yale Law School Paul Tsai China Center Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates This debate was produced in partnership with Johns Hopkins University.
