There's been renewed interest in nuclear power in recent years, thanks in part to demand from tech companies in search of reliable energy to power their AI data centers. The startup Kairos Power has jumped on this opportunity. Its nuclear reactors are cooled by molten salt. They also use golf-ball sized nuclear fuel, instead of uranium rods cooled by water used by traditional reactors. Mike Laufer, co-founder and CEO of Kairos, says their reactors a bit like an upside down gumball machine.The company just started construction on its first power plant, located in eastern Tennessee, called Hermes 2. It will supply energy to the utility in the area, the Tennessee Valley Authority, and specifically to Google to power its data centers. Marketplace's Stephanie Hughes spoke with Laufer to learn more.

Jeudi 12 février 2026PSYCHANALYSELes héroïnes de la modernité. Mauvaises filles et psychanalyse matérialiste I Laurie LauferEn dialogue avec Sandra BoehringerÉditions La DécouverteLa médecine, la psychiatrie et la psychanalyse ont, depuis le XIXe siècle, produit nombre de discours savants sur les paroles, les corps, les sexualités et les comportements des femmes. Diagnostics, médicalisation, pathologisation ont servi à les assigner à des rôles genrés et à maintenir les hiérarchies et les normes sociales. Pour ces " experts ", les lesbiennes sont malades, les prostituées sont folles, celles qui refusent d'être mères sont anormales, les femmes qui avortent sont amorales, les jeunes filles libres sont déséquilibrées. Elles sont toutes hystériques, mélancoliques, psychotiques, perverses. Mais que font ces " mauvaises filles " de ce que l'on a fait d'elles, de ce que l'on a dit d'elles ? Elles racontent des histoires différentes. Elles écrivent et parlent de leur liberté. Elles arrachent les camisoles et, ensemble, se soulèvent.Laurie Laufer exerce la psychanalyse à Paris. Elle est directrice de l'UFR IHSS (Institut des humanités, sciences et sociétés) de l'université Paris Cité. Elle est notamment l'autrice de Vers une psychanalyse émancipée. Renouer avec la subversion (La Découverte, 2022) et Les Héroïnes de la modernité. Mauvaises filles et psychanalyse matérialiste (La Découverte, 2025).

La publication du livre d'Adèle Yon au printemps 2025, Mon vrai nom est Elisabeth, rencontre un énorme succès public et critique, et la jeune autrice a reçu plusieurs prix. Cette histoire singulière autour d'une femme internée et lobotomisée dans les années 1950 se révèle être une histoire politique et publique, passant de l'intime au collectif.Rendre audibles, visibles et lisibles les voix de femmes qui ont subi des violences psychiatriques, est également au cœur des recherches de la psychanalyste Laurie Laufer. “Ce qui se dit aujourd'hui se disait hier sur une autre mélodie” souligne-t-elle.Que fait on des femmes qui manifestent leurs désirs qui, selon les normes d'une époque, peuvent paraître excessifs ? Pourquoi a-t-on si peur de la folie des femmes ? Ce mal loge-t-il physiquement quelque part et peut-il être enlevé, comme on l'a longtemps cru ? Comment un internement et une thérapie de choc peut-elle, quatre générations de femmes plus tard, avoir encore des conséquences ? Animée par Chloë Cambreling, la conversation aborde les violences conjugales, l'instabilité des diagnostics médicaux, les différences entre psychiatrie et psychanalyse, le silence au sein des familles ou encore le travail de recherche universitaire.À lireLaurie Laufer, Les héroïnes de la modernité, La Découverte, 2025.Adèle Yon, Mon vrai nom est Elisabeth, Éditions du sous-sol, 2025 (Prix littéraire du Nouvel Obs, Prix littéraire du Barreau de Marseille 2025).Hébergé par Ausha.

"The Process Of Building Credibility To Deliver In This Space Is Grueling" Featuring Dr. Mike Laufer, Kairos Power

C.O.B. Tuesday

Today we had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Mike Laufer, Co-Founder and CEO of Kairos Power, for a robust nuclear-focused discussion. Kairos recently marked its nine-year anniversary and has grown to 500+ employees across its headquarters in Alameda, CA, its manufacturing development campus in Albuquerque, NM, and its Hermes Demonstration Reactor Campus in Oak Ridge, TN. Kairos is developing its fluoride salt-cooled high-temperature reactor (KP-FHR), which pairs TRISO pebble fuel with a low-pressure molten-salt coolant (“Flibe”) and is designed for modular deployment, including a two-reactor/one-turbine configuration delivering up to ~150 MWe. The company's Oak Ridge program includes Hermes 1, the first non-water-cooled reactor to receive an NRC construction permit, and Hermes 2, a commercial-scale demonstration plant intended to supply electricity to the grid. Mike earned his Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, and his undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. His research included work in reactor safety, design, licensing, and code validation for advanced non-light water reactors. We were thrilled to visit with Mike. In our conversation, Mike shares the early vision behind Kairos, the company's focus on U.S. electricity markets and building a reactor that can compete on cost, and their strategy centered on iterative hardware demonstrations and vertical integration. We discuss system-level parallelization, developing upstream/downstream “balance-of-plant” elements alongside reactor work to compress timelines and de-risk full-system integration, NRC engagement dating back to 2018, safety case fundamentals, sizing and product configuration, and how the Google partnership supports a sequence of deployments toward ~500 MW by 2035 (Google announcement linked here). Mike offers a realistic view of the nuclear learning curve and what it takes to drive down cost and schedule uncertainty over successive projects, how Kairos structured the Google deployment pathway, and the importance of setting achievable targets. We touch on how SMR winners and losers will be determined by project execution and delivery, not announcements, and Mike highlights common pitfalls in the conventional U.S. nuclear project model, including fragmented roles and misaligned incentives. We discuss Kairos's centralized “hub” model with clear decision-making authority, its approach to validating partners and execution steps at smaller scale before taking on multi-billion-dollar FOAK risk, and how the organization maintains efficiency by balancing multiple deliverables and hiring “wildly competent” people comfortable with ambiguity. We also cover how commodity inflation and supply-chain depth affect planning, Kairos's focus on strategic supplier partnerships, particularly in steel, concrete, and precast concrete, the importance of public trust and earning long-term community support, how non-nuclear test systems build real operating capability and flexible operating models, how AI may eventually improve execution and reliability, and much more. We're very grateful to Mike for sharing his time and expertise with us. Mike Bradley kicked off the show by noting that the 10-year U.S. bond yield appears to have temporarily stabilized around 4.2% and is awaiting Wednesday's FOMC rate decision. Most expect the Fed to leave interest rates unchanged, though volatility could ensue if they don't! On the crude oil front, WTI price has inched up to $62/bbl amid continued bearishness in financial contract length and recent severe winter weather. There's speculation that this Polar Vortex (which we've dubbed the “Polar Pig”) has reduced U.S. oil production by ~1.5mmbpd. On the natural gas front, the Polar Pig has spiked prompt U.S. natural gas price to ~$6/MM

The Supreme Court: Oral Arguments

Little v. Hecox | 01/13/26 | Docket #: 24-38 24-38 LITTLE, GOVERNOR OF IDAHO V. HECOX DECISION BELOW: 104 F.4th 1061 ORDER OF OCTOBER 20, 2025: RESPONDENT'S REQUEST THAT THE COURT DISMISS THE CASE AS MOOT IS DEFERRED PENDING ORAL ARGUMENT. SEE ACHESON HOTELS, LLC v. LAUFER , 601 U. S. 1, 4 (2023). CERT. GRANTED 7/3/2025 QUESTION PRESENTED: Women and girls have overcome decades of discrimination to achieve a more equal playing field in many arenas of American life-including sports. Yet in some competitions, female athletes have become bystanders in their own sports as male athletes who identify as female have taken the place of their female competitors-on the field and on the winners' podium. The Idaho Legislature addressed that injustice by enacting the Fairness in Women's Sports Act, which ensures that women and girls do not have to compete against men and boys no matter how those men and boys identify. The Act-one of 25 such state laws around the country-is consistent with longstanding government policies preserving women's and girls' sports due to the "average real differences" between the sexes. Clark ex rel. Clark v. Ariz. Interscholastic Ass'n, 695 F.2d 1126, 1131 (9th Cir. 1982). Breaking with this Court's precedents, its own caselaw, other circuit decisions, and biological reality, the Ninth Circuit panel here upheld an injunction against the Act because it prevents "transgender women and girls"-meaning males who identify as women and girls-from competing in "women's student athletics." App.4a-5a. The question presented is: Whether laws that seek to protect women's and girls' sports by limiting participation to women and girls based on sex violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. LOWER COURT CASE NUMBER: 20-35813, 20-35815

In a world where speaking out can result in being silenced forever, journalism itself is under attack. Hours before this conversation was taped, commentator and podcaster Charlie Kirk was gunned down at an event at Utah Valley University — a stark reminder that public voices, whether political or journalistic, face real and rising danger. Against that backdrop, Dr. Peter Laufer, world-traveling journalist, author and editor of the new book “Don't Shoot the Journalists: Migrating to Stay Alive,” joined E&P Reports to explore what's at stake when reporters are exiled, threatened or even killed — and what our society loses when truth-tellers are taken off the stage.   Access more at this episode's landing page, at: https://www.editorandpublisher.com/stories/after-the-kirk-shooting-peter-laufer-warns-journalism-is-more-dangerous-than-ever,257691

Welcome to Supreme Court Opinions. In this episode, you'll hear the Court's opinion in Acheson Hotels, LLC v Laufer. In this case, the court considered this issue: Does an ADA “tester” have Article III standing to challenge a hotel's failure to provide disability accessibility information on its website, even if she has no plans to visit the hotel? The case was decided on December 5, 2023. The Supreme Court vacated the case as moot because Laufer voluntarily dismissed her pending suits in lower courts with prejudice due to serious misconduct by her lawyers. Justice Amy Coney Barrett authored the majority opinion of the court vacating the case as moot and declining, despite Acheson's request to the contrary, to resolve the still-live circuit split on the question of standing. Justice Clarence Thomas authored an opinion concurring in the judgment arguing that he would reach the standing issue and resolve that question in the negative. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson author an opinion concurring in the judgment, explaining that she concurs only because of the Court's precedent of vacating the judgment of the Court of Appeals below “when mootness occurs through . . . the unilateral action of the party who prevailed in the lower court.” In her view, however, vacatur is not appropriate in situations, as here, where the parties did not provide any equitable basis for vacatur.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Janine La Salle from UC Davis about her work on differential methylated regions in autism spectrum disorders. In our discussion, Janine LaSalle highlights her work on the placental epigenetic signature, which offers insights into the impact of fetal exposures and gene-environment interactions during the perinatal period. She emphasizes the placenta's value as a surrogate tissue for understanding human diseases. Her research on DNA methylation in the placenta across different mammalian species reveals consistent patterns in partially methylated and highly methylated domains. She explains the critical role of higher methylation levels in specific regions for gene expression and how this knowledge helps trace the placenta's developmental history. The conversation then delves into Dr. LaSalle's research on the link between placental DNA methylation and autism. Through epigenome-wide association studies, she discovered a novel autism gene and explored the effects of prenatal exposures on DNA methylation profiles. Additionally, she discusses the impact of maternal obesity on offspring neurodevelopment. Ultimately, the goal of her research is to contribute to precision public health and preventative healthcare with epigenetic signatures offering high potential for predicting and preventing future health problems.   References Schroeder, D.

Welcome to another insightful episode of the Tick Boot Camp podcast. In this episode, we had the pleasure to host Dr. Moses Laufer, a renowned doctor with substantial experience in treating Lyme disease patients. Alongside Dr. Laufer was our co-host Dani Tygr, a previous guest on our podcast and an amazing hairstylist who's not only a Lyme warrior but also a patient of Dr. Laufer. Introduction: Meet our guest, Dr. Moses Laufer, who's made significant strides in the treatment of Lyme disease. With our co-host, Dani Tygr, we explore Dr. Laufer's approach to diagnosing and treating Lyme disease, considering factors often overlooked in traditional medicine. Holistic Approach in Lyme Disease Treatment: Chronic conditions, such as Lyme disease, often require an innovative approach in their treatment. Dr. Laufer shares his experiences training physicians across the United States in unconventional treatment protocols focusing on factors that trigger inflammation, particularly in the gut. Balancing Hormones While Undergoing Lyme Disease Treatment: Dr. Laufer highlights the potential benefits of bioidentical hormone replacement as a supportive therapy for balancing hormones while undergoing Lyme disease treatment. He stressed this is an important first step that results in some symptom relief and primes your body to better receive Lyme treatment. The Impact of Lyme on Mental Health: Anxiety and emotional disturbances are common among Lyme patients. Our co-host, Dani, shares her experiences dealing with anxiety due to Lyme, emphasizing the importance of considering mental health during treatment. Dr. Laufer provides guidance on managing anxiety and mental health symptoms when dealing with Lyme. Personalizing Lyme Disease Treatment: Dr. Laufer emphasizes the necessity of personalized treatment for Lyme disease. He shares his approach to addressing inflammation, hormonal issues, and building an immune response before incorporating antibiotics or alternative antimicrobials into the treatment regime. Antibiotics for Lyme Disease: Dr. Laufer warns that antibiotics have a negative impact on gut health. If patients decide to proceed with antibiotics, he provides guidance on mitigating the risks of antibiotics. Additionally, Dr. Laufer emphasized one antibiotic will never be effective for Lyme and that a combination of antibiotics to address Lyme's spirochetal, round body, cell deficient, and biofilm forms, as well as intracellular Lyme bacteria, must be used. He identifies a wide range of antibiotics and highlights which ones work best for all the different forms of Lyme. Role of Peptides and Diet in Lyme Disease Treatment: Dr. Laufer explains the potential benefits and drawbacks of all different types of peptides in Lyme disease treatment. He also underscores the importance of diet in managing symptoms and shares strategies for identifying foods that trigger gut dysfunction. Bringing Light to Unseen Battles and Unheard Voices: Dr. Moses Laufer, a relentless advocate for patients battling invisible illnesses, offers a profound perspective on the unseen intensity of their struggle. His unique ability to convey the magnitude of their battle not only gives a voice to those immersed in the depths of such challenges, often misunderstood by others, but also enlightens those who stand beside them, unable to fully comprehend their experience. For many, like Dani's husband Philip and others in immediate families, hearing about the taxing reality of these illnesses from Dr. Laufer—a medical professional—is pivotal in gaining a clearer understanding. His passionate representation is an invaluable source of awareness and empathy, bridging the gap between the invisible battles and those standing on the outside. Significance of Physical Activity for Lyme Patients: Regular physical activity can significantly improve the health of Lyme patients who are well enough. Physical activity will look different for patients depending on where they are in their healing journey. It can include gentle movement and stretches in bed, slow walks, or even muscle-building exercises and cardio. Dr. Laufer encourages patients to incorporate it into their daily routine to support their recovery process. Join us as we delve deep into the world of Lyme disease treatment, learning from the experiences and wisdom of Dr. Moses Laufer. This episode is a wealth of knowledge for anyone dealing with Lyme disease or chronic conditions in general. Remember, the show notes contain key information discussed in the podcast, but for a more comprehensive understanding, tune into the full episode.
