    To był rok powrotu Donalda Trumpa i to w wersji turbo. Bez ograniczeń, bez — znanych z poprzedniej kadencji — niepewnych ogniw w maszynie politycznej, która zmienia oblicze Ameryki i całego globu. Przekonaliśmy się, na czym konkretnie polega polityka opatrzona hasłem „America First” — nie tylko w Europie, ale na całym świecie.Nie ma przełomu w wojnie Rosji z Ukrainą. Putin deklaruje, że wszystkie cele Rosji w tej wojnie będą zrealizowane, co oznaczałoby likwidację Ukrainy jako suwerennego państwa. Prezydent Zełenski, a zwłaszcza miliony Ukraińców, na to zgodzić się nie chcą.Kruchy rozejm w Gazie trwa, choć końca wojny nie widać. To był w ogóle rok, który przypomniał, że wojny — również wojny między państwami — nie są przeżytkiem, tylko jak najbardziej doświadczeniem współczesnym. Rosja z Ukrainą, Indie z Pakistanem, Tajlandia z Kambodżą, Rwanda z Demokratyczną Republiką Konga. Czy w nadchodzącym roku czeka nas konflikt USA z Wenezuelą?Wojny celne Trumpa, walka o strategiczne surowce, w tym metale ziem rzadkich, boom inwestycyjny w dziedzinie sztucznej inteligencji — ciekawe, jak długo potrwa — to tematy, które nas poruszały w tym roku.Niemcy i Japonia mają nowych, wyrazistych przywódców, podobnie jak Kościół katolicki, którym kieruje Amerykanin, choć o zupełnie innym stylu i treści niż Donald Trump.O ludziach, wydarzeniach, zjawiskach i procesach, które nas intrygowały i inspirowały, porozmawiamy w tym ostatnim w 2025 roku wydaniu Raportu o stanie świata.Goście: Sylwia Czubkowska, Andrzej Kohut, Zbigniew Parafianowicz---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ ⁠https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiak⁠Subskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ ⁠https://dariuszrosiak.substack.com⁠Koszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ ⁠https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/⁠ [Autopromocja]

New truths will come out!!! new ideas and concepts AND brand new experiences, all sprouting from our higher vibration! Everything will change!Things will settle but not before much chaos!!! The existing power system knows that the jig is up!!! We are awakening and are seeing the REAL TRUTH! But those in power especially those with mal-intention will fight until the end to keep themselves where they are, to keep the status quo!

    Last year, I compiled my first-ever “Best Of the Year” show. It was such fun to make, and received such a great response from listeners, that I decided to make it an annual tradition. While I could only include a handful of authors from the past year, this episode provides a fun Whitman's Sampler of the kinds of conversations available in our archives. Listen as Adam Johnson, Wally Lamb, and Chris Whitaker tell us where their stories come from. Laila Lalami teaches us to read like a writer. Amy Bloom and Bruce Holsinger offer their thoughts on revision. Patrick Ryan (via Ann Patchett) shares his insights about how to write war scenes with authority, and Richard Russo talks about the moral dilemma of using the people in our lives for material. Authors in this episode include Jess Walter (So Far Gone), Wally Lamb (The River is Waiting), Richard Russo (Life and Art), Amy Bloom (I'll Be Right Here), Laila Lalami (The Dream Hotel), Joan Silber (Mercy), Chris Whitaker (All the Colors of the Dark), Adam Johnson (The Wayfinder), Patrick Ryan (Buckeye), Bruce Holsinger (Culpability), Eric Puchner (Dream State) and Colum McCann (Twist). The Jane Smiley essay that Laila Lalami refers to can be found here. And Joan Silber's book about how to use time in fiction can be found here. For nearly 28 years, Writers on Writing has delivered MFA-level advice from some of our world's most accomplished living authors – all without the hefty price-tag. We've grown only by word of mouth and rely only on listener support. So, if you like what you hear, help us spread the word! For more information on Writers on Writing and to become a supporter, visit our Patreon page. For a one-time donation, visit Ko-fi. You can find hundreds of past interviews on our website. You can help out the show and indie bookstores by buying books at our bookstore on bookshop.org. It's stocked with titles by our guest authors, as well as our personal favorites. And on Spotify, you'll find an album's worth of typewriter music like what you hear on the show. It's perfect for writing. Look for the artist, Just My Type. Email the show at writersonwritingpodcast@gmail.com. We love to hear from our listeners!

    In today's episode, I wanted to continue what I was working on last week, trying to get resin to adhere to a base plastic figure to create an easier way to make custom action figure duplicates.  I will be experimenting with a number of methods to create snap on/ snap off molds to see what works best, but today, I'm using a kind of thermoplastic called Instamorph.  You heat the pellets in water, they become soft and squishy, allowing you to press something into it to make a mold, like I am doing here: https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2025/12/29/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-542-and-like-a-hood-ornament-87-trying-a-new-technique-by-creating-a-new-rocketeer-figure-part-2-and-2025-reflection/When it cures, Instamorph turns white.  It is also very hard.  That can be a plus and a minus.  I did find that it was really hard to get the mold out since it didn't want to bend.  I really hard to yank on the limbs.  The torso, however, worked really well: The mold was supposed to apply on the Rocketeer's jacket bib with the buttons and a few other details, like the straps for the rocket pack on the sides and shoulders.  The torsos of these figures might be a different kind of plastic since it has different melting properties than the limbs (which I suspect are PVC), but the resin actually adhered just fine.  Getting the resin to release from the mold was difficult, but I wonder if I use some oil or some other kind of mold release, it might a different story.  I have some other mold putties to try in the coming weeks, so if this method ultimately does not work, perhaps other will.  I am also wondering if this kind of plastic can be used in place of epoxy clay.  It dries hard but could be shaped with heat ... something to think about.This project will continue into 2026, but 2025 has been a pretty good year.  I'll talk about this more next week, in the first episode of the new year, but some of the things that happened this year were:-great guests and new friends-the release of Once Upon a Dream on tape, CD, and digital streaming after many years-a fair bit of progress on The Thirteenth Hour sequel (about 70 pages)-episode 500 last March-started to learn how to use a DAW as another way to make music-Wrapping up the reading of The Rocketeer movie novelization (started 10/14/24, ended 7/7/25)Looking forward to seeing what we can do in 2026!  See you in the new year!∞∞∞∞∞∞∞Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!   It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube Music.  (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes and special editions of the album there as well.)  The CDs are out now!-Check out the pixelart music videos that are out so far from the album:-->Logan's Sunrise Workout: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7SM1RgsLiM-->Forward: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9VgILr1TDc-->Nightsky Stargazing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S0p3jKRTBo-->Aurora's Rainy Day Mix: https://youtu.be/zwqPmypBysk∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Signup for the mailing list for a free special edition podcast, a demo copy of The Thirteenth Hour, and access to retro 80s soundtrack!Like what you see or hear?

Maybe we can get a lot of free food."Ko: 지수는 웃으며 말했다. "너 또 시작이구나. 하지만 너한테 어떤 재밌는 일이 생길지 기대돼."En: Jisoo laughed and said, "There you go again. But I'm curious to see what fun will come your way."Ko: 민서와 지수는 시장의 한 구석으로 걸어갔고, 그곳에는 도현이라는 상인이 있었다.En: Minseo and Jisoo walked to a corner of the market where there was a vendor named Dohyun.Ko: 도현은 호떡을 굽고 있었다.En: Dohyun was making hotteok.Ko: 민서는 자신감을 가득 담고 말했다.En: Minseo spoke with full confidence.Ko: "안녕하세요. 혹시 저를 아세요? 제가 요즘 인기 있는 드라마에 나오는 그 사람입니다."En: "Hello. Do you perhaps recognize me? I'm the person in the popular drama these days."Ko: 도현은 고개를 갸웃하며 말했다. "그래요? 그럼 제가 모를 리가 없는데..."En: Dohyun tilted his head and said, "Really? Then there's no way I wouldn't know..."Ko: 도현은 의심의 눈초리를 거두지 않고 민서를 바라봤다.En: Dohyun continued to look at Minseo with a doubtful gaze.Ko: 민서는 조금 긴장했지만 강하게 나가기로 했다.En: Minseo felt a bit nervous but decided to push on.Ko: 그녀는 지수에게 신호를 보냈다.En: She sent a signal to Jisoo.Ko: 지수는 씩 웃으며 크게 외쳤다. "와, 너 정말 그 사람이 맞구나! 여기서 너를 만날 줄 몰랐어!"En: Jisoo smiled broadly and shouted loudly, "Wow, you really are that person! I didn't expect to see you here!"Ko: 주변에 있던 사람들은 지수의 목소리에 시선을 돌렸고, 갑자기 군중 속에서 몇몇 사람들이 민서를 알아보는 것 같았다.En: People nearby turned their attention to Jisoo's voice, and suddenly it seemed like a few people in the crowd recognized Minseo.Ko: 알고 보니, 그들은 민서를 얼마 전 인터넷에서 유행했던 재미있는 밈에서 보고 알아본 것이다.En: As it turned out, they had seen her in a funny meme that had recently gone viral on the internet.Ko: "진짜네! 와, 사인 좀 해주세요!" 누군가 외치며 민서에게 다가왔다.En: "It's true! Wow, can I get an autograph?" someone shouted as they approached Minseo.Ko: 이때 도현은 미소를 지으며 말했다. "내 알던 연예인은 아니지만, 너의 운이 좋았던 것 같네. 이만큼 가져가도 될 것 같군."En: At this point, Dohyun smiled and said, "Even though you're not the celebrity I knew, it seems you're lucky. You might as well take this much."Ko: 민서는 웃음을 참을 수 없어 고개를 숙였다. "사실, 그냥 장난이었어요. 고맙습니다."En: Minseo couldn't help but bow her head in laughter. "Actually, it was just a joke. Thank you."Ko: 도현은 빙그레 웃으며 민서에게 호떡을 더 주었다. "괜찮아, 크리스마스잖아. 즐기세요."En: Dohyun chuckled as he gave Minseo more hotteok. "It's alright, it's Christmas. Enjoy yourselves."Ko: 집으로 돌아가는 길에 민서는 지수에게 말했다. "진짜 유명해지는 것보다 솔직한 내가 더 좋을 것 같아."En: On the way home, Minseo said to Jisoo, "I think I prefer being honest rather than being famously known."Ko: 지수는 고개를 끄덕이며 미소를 지었다. "맞아, 너 자신이 최고야."En: Jisoo nodded with a smile. "You're the best as you are."Ko: 그날 밤, 서울의 하늘에는 별들이 반짝였고, 민서의 마음에도 진실된 기쁨이 가득했다.En: That night, the stars twinkled in the Seoul sky, and Minseo's heart was full of genuine joy.Ko: 크리스마스는 진정한 나를 찾아가는 여정임을 깨달았던 하루였다.En: It was a day she realized that Christmas is a journey to find her true self.

"우리 사이에 벌어진 일들을... 이해하지 못했어. 하지만... 다시 너랑 친하고 싶어."En: Minjun took a deep breath and continued, "I didn't understand what happened between us... but I want to be close with you again."Ko: 그러나 은지는 여전히 마음의 문을 쉽게 열지 않았다.En: However, Eunji still didn't easily open her heart.Ko: "왜 이제 와서?" 그녀는 물었다.En: "Why now?" she asked.Ko: "그때 전혀 신경 쓰지 않았잖아."En: "You didn't care at all back then."Ko: 민준은 잠시 망설였지만, 마음을 먹었다.En: Minjun hesitated for a moment but made up his mind.Ko: 코트를 뒤적여 오래전 쓴 편지를 꺼내들었다.En: He rummaged through his coat and took out a letter he had written long ago.Ko: "이걸... 그때 쓰고 못 줬어.En: "I wrote this... but never gave it to you.Ko: 오늘은 꼭 전하고 싶어."En: I want to give it to you today."Ko: 편지를 받아든 은지는 한참을 그 위에 눈을 고정했다.En: Eunji took the letter and fixed her gaze on it for a long time.Ko: 조용한 차 집에 시계 바늘이 움직이는 소리가 들렸다.En: In the quiet tea house, the ticking of the clock could be heard.Ko: 이제 몇 분 후면 새해였다.En: In a few minutes, it would be the New Year.Ko: 은지는 편지를 조심스럽게 뜯고, 민준은 그 옆에서 초조하게 기다렸다.En: Eunji carefully opened the letter and Minjun waited anxiously beside her.Ko: 편지를 읽는 동안 은지의 얼굴에서 조금씩 변화가 일어나기 시작했다.En: As Eunji read the letter, her face began to change little by little.Ko: 그녀의 입술이 떨리고, 눈이 살짝 붉어졌다.En: Her lips trembled, and her eyes became slightly red.Ko: 민준이 적어 내려간 진심 어린 사과와 후회가 느껴져서일 것이다.En: It must have been because she could feel the sincere apology and regret Minjun had poured into the letter.Ko: "형, 나는..." 은지는 쉬운 말을 찾지 못했다.En: "Brother, I..." Eunji struggled to find the right words.Ko: 돌아오는 새해의 경쾌한 종소리가 조용히 울려 퍼졌다.En: The cheerful sound of the New Year's bell quietly echoed.Ko: "다시 시작해볼래?" 민준이 조심스럽게 물었다.En: "Shall we start over?" Minjun asked carefully.Ko: 은지는 차갑던 얼굴에서 마음의 빙하가 녹아내리듯 미소를 지어 보였다.En: Eunji smiled, as if the glacier in her heart melted away.Ko: "그래, 다시 시작하자."En: "Yes, let's start over."Ko: 두 사람 사이에 흐르던 차갑던 바람이 언제 그랬느냐는 듯이 사라졌다.En: The cold breeze that had been blowing between them disappeared as if it was never there.Ko: 그들의 이야기는 이제 새로운 시작을 준비하고 있었다.En: Their story was now preparing for a new beginning.Ko: 차 잔에서 피어오르는 김처럼, 아르마와 따스함은 여전히 그들 사이를 감싸고 있었다.En: Like the steam rising from their teacups, warmth and comfort continued to embrace them.

Minji responded energetically.Ko: 그러나 둘 다 어색함을 느꼈다.En: However, both felt the awkwardness.Ko: 타워를 올라가며, 입에서 말이 잘 나오지 않았다.En: As they ascended the tower, words did not come easily.Ko: 지수는 민지에게 먼저 말을 꺼내고 싶었지만, 어떻게 시작해야 할지 몰랐다.En: Jisoo wanted to speak to Minji first, but didn't know how to begin.Ko: 민지 역시 분위기를 풀어보려 농담을 던졌으나, 긴장감은 쉽게 사라지지 않았다.En: Minji, too, tried to break the tension with a joke, but the tension didn't easily dissipate.Ko: 그러던 중 타워 꼭대기에서 소망 나무를 보게 되었다.En: Then they saw the wishing tree at the top of the tower.Ko: 많은 사람들이 작은 메모지에 새해 소망을 적어 나무에 걸고 있었다.En: Many people were writing their New Year wishes on small pieces of paper and hanging them on the tree.Ko: "우리도 소망 적어볼래?" 민지가 제안했다.En: "Do you want to write a wish too?" Minji suggested.Ko: 지수는 고개를 끄덕였다.En: Jisoo nodded.Ko: 지수는 메모지에 조심스럽게 마음속 이야기를 적었다.En: Carefully, Jisoo wrote her heartfelt story on a piece of paper.Ko: "민지와 오해를 풀고 싶어." 작은 종이에 담아 나무에 걸었다.En: "I want to resolve the misunderstanding with Minji." She placed the small paper on the tree.Ko: 민지도 자신의 소망을 적고 나무에 걸었다.En: Minji also wrote her wish and hung it on the tree.Ko: 둘은 나무를 돌며 서로의 소망을 읽게 되었다.En: As they walked around the tree, they read each other's wishes.Ko: 민지의 메모에는 이렇게 적혀 있었다. "지수와 다시 웃으며 친구가 되고 싶어."En: Minji's note said, "I want to be friends with Jisoo and laugh together again."Ko: 지수와 민지는 서로를 바라보며 미소를 지었다.En: Jisoo and Minji looked at each other and smiled.Ko: “미안해, 서툴렀어.” 지수가 먼저 말했다.En: “I'm sorry, I was awkward,” Jisoo said first.Ko: “괜찮아, 나도 그렇게 느꼈어.” 민지가 답했다.En: “It's okay, I felt the same,” Minji replied.Ko: 그 순간 눈이 더욱 쏟아졌다.En: At that moment, the snow fell even harder.Ko: 둘은 타워 밑에서 손을 잡고 눈을 맞으며 웃었다.En: They held hands and laughed as they stood in the snow beneath the tower.Ko: 지수와 민지는 새해의 시작과 함께 더욱 단단해진 우정을 느꼈다.En: With the beginning of the new year, Jisoo and Minji felt their friendship strengthen.Ko: 지수는 그날 이후 더 솔직해졌다.En: After that day, Jisoo became more open and candid.Ko: 감정에 솔직해진 지수는 친구와의 관계도 더욱 깊어졌다.En: Being honest with her feelings deepened her relationships with her friends.Ko: 눈 내리는 남산은 두 사람의 웃음소리로 가득했다.En: The snow-covered Namsan was filled with their laughter.Ko: 그리고 그녀들은 서로의 존재를 더 소중히 여기게 되었다.En: And they came to cherish each other's presence even more.

Orange biomed is developing a compact, one drop device that they say could make frequent A1C checks easier and more accessible. They're sharing research that four A1C tests a year can lead to a nearly 4% reduction in A1C levels, but they say a lot of people can't get to the clinic that much. We'll talk about why this matters, even in the era of CGM, how the device works and what the early clinical trial results look like.   This podcast is not intended as medical advice. If you have those kinds of questions, please contact your healthcare provider.   Welcome to a bonus episode of diabetes connections. I hope your December is going well and that you know somehow you're able to take some time for yourself in the middle of all the holiday rushing around this time of year can be magical and stressful and exhausting and wonderful, and you know, all the things. And it's the same thing over here, super busy getting all this stuff done before the end of the year. Love it. But, you know, getting podcast episodes out, writing all the things we write and planning for next year, as they say, We're staying booked and busy.   But quick behind the scenes here to better explain this episode, I taped this interview way back over the summer during the ADA Scientific Sessions conference. I had some technical problems. I actually thought I lost this interview. There were two interviews that seemed to have gone missing. We're going to air the other one very soon. But thankfully, I do have backups upon backups. So all the info that you're going to hear today is still relevant.   This product, a small A1C test, is still in development. The only dated bit is about their follow up event that took place in August. Orange Biomed was launched in 2021 in South Korea, with its US headquarters in Providence, Rhode Island. Its founders are two Duke University alums, and they're my guests, CEO Yeaseul Park and Co-President Unghyeon Ko, We are also joined by Janice Dru-Bennett. She is a senior advisor at the company. Now, English is not the first language of two of these three speakers. This is a good time to remind you that most podcasting platforms have pretty good transcription services these days, especially Apple, I think they have a fantastic real time transcription service for podcasts that has been impressive to me in how they translate diabetes language. They're getting better at it. But I am also going to put a transcript of the interview in the show notes, which I don't normally do because the podcast services have gotten so good at it, but I think it could be helpful for at least a few of you out there. Okay, here is my conversation from the floor of ADA from the team at Orange biomed.   Yeaseul Park, Janice Drew Bennett and Dr Ko, Welcome to diabetes connections. I can't say live from ADA, because we're taping this to air later, but you're all there. Thank you so much for joining   Yeaseul Park  03:08 me. Yes, thank you. We're   03:10 excited to be here. Oh   Stacey Simms  03:11 my goodness. Can I ask first, how is the trip? I mean, yes, let me ask you. You guys came a long way.   Yeaseul Park  03:17 Yeah, it was 13 hours from Korea. But it's I'm so excited, because this event is really one of the times, and this is actually our third time attending ADA.   Stacey Simms  03:31 That's great. And we have so many questions for you, but Janice, let me ask you, you're there as everybody's setting up at the kind of beginnings of the show. What is it like right now for people who aren't familiar with ADA,   Janice Dru-Bennett  03:42 yes, you can hear the hammers in the background, although, but not on this podcast, but there's a lot of noise and people walking by. We're just setting up this the day before the exhibit hall opens and Dr Cole will be presenting at the Innovation Hub tomorrow, which is where we're sitting right now, with tables of innovators will be showcasing their diabetes innovations, and   Stacey Simms  04:04 there's a lot to get to. Dr Koh, I know you're presenting, but yes, let me ask you, like, what why? I know you said it's your third year, but why is orange biomed at ADA, what is your goal   Yeaseul Park  04:16 for us? ADA, is for a learning experience. As well as a platform to share. We come to see how all those around the world are fighting against diabetes, whether through clinical research, digital tools or technologies or community programs. At the same time, you're so proud to hear what orange biomat is building anytime, and eight months exhausting. That makes diabetes monitoring not accessible, not so many. And this year is especially exciting because Dr ko our co founder of orange buying at the group of speaking at ADA brand new program the innovation Hall.   Stacey Simms  04:58 That's awesome. So Dr Koh, tell me. Little bit about this, the Innovation Hub is pretty cool, but what are you going to be talking about?   Unghyeon Ko  05:05 Yeah, actually, I'm talking about the engineering part. I mean our technology, so our orange biomed, we are trying to solve a simple but a serious problem about the A1C accessibility. So to increase the A1C accessibility. So we are, we are developing at home device to measure the A1C level. So I'm, I'm talking about how difficult to increase the accessibility of A1C, but our technology is handled that difficult problem. So we now he's so agreed. So I'm going to introduce our technology and emphasize the importance of the A1C measurement at home.   Stacey Simms  05:49 Yeah, so A1C, it's interesting. My son was diagnosed at two, and in the pediatric world, you know, they'll just prick a finger generally and have that A1C right away. But my husband lives with type two, and he gets his labs drawn. And then it takes forever. So tell me a little bit before we go further about what you're hoping to do and making this easier for the patient,   Speaker 1  06:10 the frequent monitoring of A1C is so important to prevent the diabetic complications. So the money, so if you there is some so I can say that there is a research that if you measure the A 1d the four times a year, the People's A1C level is decreased like 3.8% but if you measure the A 1d at one per year, Then the A1C level is increased 1.5% so the frequent A1C monitoring is so important to prevent the diabetes complications. But problem is A1C measurement is only available at clinical site at this moment, so most of the A1C monitoring is done by the clinical side. So that's why people are difficult to monitoring A1C, because they have to visit the clinics forever. So is so like four times, or even eight times visit the clinics or hospital is quite difficult, especially in the people living in the far area from the hospital. So that's why the home A1C test is required. So I think that's why the accessibility of the A1C is one of the important things in managing the diabetes complications.   Stacey Simms  07:39 Dr Koh, is there evidence that, I mean more frequent A1C testing, I think would give many people peace of mind, perhaps. But is there evidence that it really does help in your health?   Speaker 1  07:51 Oh, yes, it is actually like from there is the research, like the famous research about the A1C level, like the research name this t and this research proved that the A1C is the one of the strongest predictor of diabetes complication. So A1C is completely related with the risk of diabetes complication. So like keeping A1C on the 7% dramatically lower the risk of diabetes complications. And also, there is another research in UK, the UK PDS study, and that study said they are A1C. Lowering A1C by just 1% can reduce overall mortality by 15% and microvascular complication by 37% so the roaring A1C is the goal of the treatment of the   Yeaseul Park  08:47 diabetes. So   Stacey Simms  08:48 when I think of at home diabetes tests, blood tests, seem like they're they're really sensitive, right? You have to be very careful with things like that, although we do, we did finger sticks at home for years and years. Are there challenges with at home A1C testing that that people like me could mess up,   Yeaseul Park  09:06 sure actually when I was doing pandemic outside system? So it's a new   Yeaseul Park  09:19 box of mustard with five or six needles inside, and we need to collect this blood to sound the left result. But then I really tried to collect the requirement matter blood, which is like it was like bleeding. Oh, it's not just retiring in one block, one drop of block, but it's like you need to try, yeah, many times, not just in one spot, to collapse in the block. And the other way you. Built female in, built a lot more broadly, to store your venous blood, and that's features like discomfort.   Stacey Simms  10:10 Would you mind taking us through your experience with the A1C testing? You were talking about how much blood it took? Yeah.   Yeaseul Park  10:17 So it, it requires many, many drops of blood. So I felt like it's like bleeding, and you make a lot of mess around the table. And so I felt, even though it's it was a topic time it was pandemic. So that's the only option I had at that time, but I wanted to make it simple and easier. And the other types of point of care devices only use a drop of blood still have some limitations, because we all don't want to bleed too much, so sometimes we try to finger stick very small and just squeeze to get enough blood. But if you squeeze to get enough sample volume, that's make your other liquid, like sweats, can also mix with your blood, and that actually affects the accuracy of the testing usually so many point of care devices also not recommend you to squeeze to get enough blood, so that means you need to treat a little too deep to get enough. So we really wanted to make this whole process or simpler and more problem.   Stacey Simms  11:43 Can you share a little bit about what the device looks like, what the patient experience is when they use it?   Speaker 1  11:48 Dr, CO, so our device is a palm size. Is in most like, like self, self poem, so it's a palm size device. So our device has no switch, but there is only a slider in the front of the device. So if you slide that, you can the device is turned on and you can insert the cartridge, and the cartridge is disposable cartridge. So after that, you just collect your blood and dilute it in the collecting tube and drop the sample into the cartridge, then analyze the A1C like automatically. So it's quite similar with the covid by covid test kit. So the covid test kit collect the sample in your nose and mix with the Rickett and drop it right? And it's quite similar.   Stacey Simms  12:45 So do you do a finger stick to put on the cartridge? How much blood to yells? Point, you know? How much blood do you need?   Speaker 1  12:52 Our devices for home use device, so it's quite we use a very different technology, because our device analyze the red blood cell one by one. So actually, we don't need exact unlike like five micro or 10 micro, we don't need the exact sample block. So we just need one drop of blood. So if the one drop is big, or if the one drop is right or small, it's fine for us. So one drop of blood, mix with their sample and drop one drop onto the cartridge. So maybe you can, you can drop one more than one drop, but we recommend one drop. So one drop of blood sample my dinner the rest yesterday pointed out that the skeezing the finger of blood is a problem for other device because, because in our body, there is a body wicked inside your under, under your skin. So if the body wicked is mixed with the blood samples, so it might be a problem because it dilute the blood sample. But our device, we analyze the Red Cross itself. So if it is diabetes, I think so we will find so you just puncture very best, and if you scale it, and it's totally fine for us. So it's, it's one of the good point of our device.   Yeaseul Park  14:20 How long does it take to get the results? It takes like, five minutes. Okay, yeah, and that's all at home. Yeah. Yezel, who do you see using this? Who is this for? Basically, it's for everyone. I think whoever has pre diabetes, diabetes type one, type two, and especially, I think who has limited access to primary care or lab testings. You know, many people who are older, tends to have more, especially the people who has limited access to primary care or lab testings. We believe this device can give more value to them. Yeah, and especially some people who have limited mobility, if they are older, or if they have experienced that amputation or something like that, they cannot go to the hospital by themselves. They need a caregivers to drive them to the hospital for the simple lab testing. But now I think it empowers patients who has that limitation still can take control their health by using this kind of home use device. How accurate   Stacey Simms  15:33 is it? I assume you have studies, and you've done some trials on how on the accuracy?   Yeaseul Park  15:37 Dr, CO, do you want to add that?   Speaker 1  15:40 Oh, yeah. So we are preparing the clinical trial. So the official clinical trials will be done within this year, but so that's our plan. But we we tested our device already using the in in last year. So last year, feasibility studies show that our device is quite similar with other point of care devices, and hopefully because at that time, our device, our especially our cartridge sensor, we just manufacturing our own like our in our lab. So this time, the official clinical trial in in this year, we are going to manufacturing in the factories so it might be more precise. So we hopefully we trying to chase the hospital accurate.   Stacey Simms  16:30 And I have to ask, where more and more people with diabetes are wearing a CGM and looking at time and range. What would you say to people who would tell you, well, we don't really need A1C anymore. We have time and range. Dr Cody, I see you nodding. Go ahead, yeah, yeah.   Speaker 1  16:47 So that's a very important point, but because the timing range is also important, and the CGM is very great technology for diabetes people. But problem is, like the A1C and C GM target different, like the CGM target the hypothesemia, but the A1C targeting the diabetes complications. So like, if you measure the timing range and you can manage your average glucose more nicely, but it might be prevent your hypothenia. But if you want to assess your diabetes management, you might be measure A1C. So if you measure timing range, but you also have to measure the A1C. So A1C is for everyone's and so. And also, the point is, if you don't treat the insulin, or if you don't treat the any medications, then you don't need to actually using the CGM, that's the ADH recommendation. So, but in in that case, you need the A1C as well. So A1C for everyone, and the CGM is for the people who treated the insulin. That's the ADA guide, right? And then,   Stacey Simms  18:12 yes, let me just ask you. You know, you came all this way. As you say, this is your third time at ADA. Trials are starting soon. What's your hope here? Is this something you see in homes of everyone who has any kind of diabetes? What's the big goal for Orange biomed?   Yeaseul Park  18:28 Every time we talk to a day, we can feel what's going on here in diabetes industry. It's a huge maybe first year, I the most frequently hard keyword was aid system. But after that, we now have GLP one, and now we hear more keyword around obesity. So that's a little slightly different trend I can feel. And once you come and join this full sessions, then I can see there's make everyone is making a progress, and we are all together. Want to fight against diabetes in their own way or with their own expertise, whether it's pharmaceutical, whether it's medical device or diabetes, sex, sometimes any other community programs that really support this patient and families, the community, and it's Really this whole atmosphere actually really motivates our team and myself, and we can feel the value. I can really feel this we are doing something valuable to patients and our community, and that's the most great thing, like the greatest thing that I can take when I come back to home with a. After the ADA. And for sure, we want to have opportunity to make voice what we are doing at Orange biomed, and want to deliver this value to the patient and other healthcare professionals. Otherwise, even though we are working hard to make this progress, no one knows, and that makes any changes the world. So that's the important purpose we are coming here. That's great.   Stacey Simms  20:30 Janice, before I let you all go, I know you wanted to talk about an event you've got coming up in Chicago. Can you tell me a little   Janice Dru-Bennett  20:37 bit about that? Yes, we're really excited for Orange biomed to be hosting the first map your health event, a local event here in Chicago, we have done a solving healthcare challenges webinar to announce our map your health campaign, which is, monitor your A1C, monitor your health and then adapt your treatment and prevent chronic disease. And we're actually going to be hosting on August 16, from 10am to 3pm in Chicago at their humble Park, Health Wellness Center, the first local event, inviting all local partners. We'll have some virtual sessions, showcase with yoga or ask the endocrinologist. So we'll have a very exciting agenda that both virtual and on site participants can join in, eat healthy foods. See, see what's in Chicago from a screenings perspective, and really get people motivated to map your health. So hashtag, map your health. Tell your your your health story, and let's get everyone, um, healthier. Wow.   Stacey Simms  21:35 Okay, fantastic. Well, yes, I'll park Dr co Janice, thank you so much for joining me. Have a terrific show. I know this is an audio podcast, but especially behind you. Yassil, it has been wild to watch the construction guys are going by and motorized carts and things are going up behind you. So have a wonderful ADA.
