**BOOK RECOMMENDS BELOW*Monday Madness Edition takes a gentler turn (sort of) For Valentine's Day Feb 2022. I begin with some lighthearted Covid related haiku's, some information on the Immune system, and love, then of course I mention the Truckers, Deep gravy 6 and the 'other side" sprinkled throughout as a contrast to the love I am highlighting. I inform everyone that I will be diving deeper into all of the stories throughout the week, but for this podcast, we are gong to try and keep it more upbeat, and highlighting the contrasts between love and hate. The them is Love Thy Neighbor. I then thank healthcare workers for all they have done for humanity and us during the pandemic, and I highlight getting vaccinated and masking and social distance, as showing Love and empathy, and that the opposite is showing hate. I highlight the writings of a Professor Zoloth, who was instrumental at the beginning of the rollout, and who spoke about the Ethics of Equity in Vaccine availability and good statements by her on how important it is to love your neighbor in regards to ending the pandemic.I then sedge-way into the incredible 75 year marriage of Fmr President Jimmy Carter, and Rosalyn Carter. I discuss two of his books, and there is also a book written by Zoloth (I will put the links below) Highlighting a Washington post article on his paintings, and also I quote some of is poems. One to his wife, and one to his father.I talk about the contrasts of three men, Carter, Biden, and Obama, and how all three men could have gone to the dark side, but chose to stay on the good path. I have a wrap up and a little rand about love versus hate, and loving your neighbor wand the contrasts and difference between being truly christian, and good, and being selfish, and cruel.https://www.goodreads.com/author/list/6113.Jimmy_Carterhttps://www.amazon.com/Laurie-Zoloth/e/B001K8Z6GY%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_sharehttps://www.amazon.com/IMMUNITY-STRONG-Boost-Natural-Healing/dp/1630061956#TPRBreakingNews #SupportLiberalPodcasts #WomenWithScissorsBreaking news intro
In this episode, we interview Dr. Laurie Zoloth, the Margaret E. Burton Professor at the University of Chicago Divinity School and EBRC Council Member. We ask Dr. Zoloth how moral philosophy can address ethical dilemmas in an uncertain world. Along the way, we delve into issues like gene drives and germline editing, and we speak about the importance of integrity, fidelity, and solidarity for scientists.For more information about EBRC, visit our website at ebrc.org.

The coronavirus pandemic has raised countless ethical questions: How do we balance restricting freedoms with protecting others, how do we ethically distribute vaccines, should we force people to get vaccinated—or should we ask healthy people to get infected with COVID-19 in the name of science? There’s no one better to discuss these dilemmas with than Laurie Zoloth. She’s a Professor of Religion and Ethics at the University of Chicago, one of the leading thinkers on bioethics, and serves on committees and advisory boards with organizations like the CDC and NIH. On this episode, we ask her all our COVID-19 ethical questions—and her answers might surprise you.

Con esto se establece un precedente para este tipo de indiscreciones bioéticas.

Tras revisar más de 500 estudios asociados con GWS, los cuales contemplan los genes de millones de personas para ver variaciones comunes, se encontró que solo en enfermedades muy específicas, como el Mal de Chron, los genes influyen en un 50% en el riesgo de que una persona lo desarrolle. Aun así, dichos genes no tienen tanta influencia con el desarrollo de enfermedades."El ADN no es destino. La mayoría de las enfermedades como muchos tipos de cáncer, diabetes o Alzheimer solo cuentan con una contribución genética del 5 al 10 por ciento máximo" dice David Wishart, biólogo investigador de la Universidad de Alberta, en Canadá."Simply put, DNA is not your destiny.

This week on Science for the People: who is driving this genetic bus? We'll talk with Kevin Esvelt about gene drives, what they are, where they come from what they can be used for, and why the science on gene drives should be done as openly as possible. Then, we'll speak with Laurie Zoloth about the ethical questions surrounding their use, why people are so afraid, and who should be making the decision to use this technology in the wild. This episode is hosted by Bethany Brookshire, science writer from Science News. Related Links How gene drives work Gene Drives...
A gene drive is a targeted contagion intended to spread within species, forever altering the offspring. Gene drive enthusiasts say they could wipe out malaria, saving more than half a million lives each year. As yet, no CRISPR gene drive has been released in the wild — few have even been built. Laurie Zoloth of the University of Chicago explores the ethical questions about genes designed to spread through populations and alter ecosystems, and their unforeseen consequences.

What ethical judgments are at stake when we ‘translate’? What is ‘lost in translation’ when theories of human agency are translated into practices, or when practices are re-inscribed, or translated into theory?
Health care justice, especially in a global context, we are told, must be based in outcomes and efficiency yields, and using the arguments of the modern marketplace have been the basis for health care reform. This has taken us some of the way towards a health care system in America that is more just, yet it is still a matter of contention for some and for nearly everyone, only a beginning. What difficult questions need to be asked and answered before we can really make American health care a fair system? And what is the meaning of local or national justice when we newly understand the world and its health care needs as a global problem? This talk will raise some of the unsolved puzzles of health care reform and argue that for the hardest questions— sacrifice, duty, death and greed— we need reasons for action that go beyond the language of the marketplace, and use the traditions and languages found in Americans faith communities about obligations to the stranger in need.
Guest: Laurie Zoloth, PhD Host: Maurice Pickard, MD Dr. Laurie Zoloth, director of the Northwestern University Center for Bioethics, Science and Society, talks about ovarian cryopreservation, maturation of oocytes in vitro, and politicized laboratory breakthroughs that were intended to meet the needs of female cancer survivors. She argues that we need to be prepared to deal with patients who will use the tools offered by oncofertility to delay childbearing, and meet the need for tissue in stem cell research. Hosted by Dr. Maurice Pickard.
Guest: Laurie Zoloth, PhD Host: Maurice Pickard, MD The preservation of female cancer patients' fertility after treatment is a new area of concern for researchers, clinicians, and patients. Dr. Laurie Zoloth, professor of medical humanities, bioethics, Jewish studies and religion and also director of the Northwestern University Center for Bioethics, Science and Society, talks with host Dr. Maurice Pickard about broad issues of reproduction, as well as breakthroughs in the lab and how clinicians can handle treatment discussions when they're compounded by the topic of fertility.
Dr. Jing Kang, from the Department of Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital & Harvard Medical School sits in his lab in Boston, Massachusetts. He collaborated in a study with other scientists from three U.S. universities to create cloned pigs that produce higher than normal levels of omega-3 fatty acids.
