Michael Gray is the CEO of Actus Analytical, Inc., which develops spectroscopy solutions for public safety compliance, illicit drug detection, agricultural productivity, and other applications. Michael and his wife Nancy founded The Actus Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, in 2018. The Actus Foundation advocates for solutions to treating the entirety of the overdose epidemic problem in America, including the largely forgotten constituency of intermittent users. He founded, with partner Ed Kobilis in 2019, the Fentanyl Awareness Coalition - a coalition of tens of thousands of advocates in the US. Michael is a popular speaker, offering unique analyses and suggestions for creative solutions to a new problem, i.e., an old problem with a recently altered paradigm. Michael walks participants through the murky world of the drug problem clarifying the threat and dispelling myths. The Actus Foundation also advocates for the mentally ill, striving to deliver the message that mental illness is a disease the entire family suffers, and suffers in isolation; there are no well-worn paths to solutions available to those in chronic states of mental illness. For all our success in medical science – diagnostic practices, treatment/care and patient advocacy – our nation has left behavioral science in the stone age. Our practice of psychiatric care – diagnostic practices, treatment/care and patient advocacy – is the ugly stepchild hidden in the attic as the country proudly displays her medical science wonders to the world. In addition to advocacy, Mr. Gray is offering his 35 years of professional expertise in the world of scientific instrumentation as another element of his work on behalf of the victims of overdose. As the Interdict Law and other legislative activity considers nascent technological advances in the ability to detect illicit drugs at the street level, Michael adds his professional expertise to that debate. With experience in the areas of Infrared Spectroscopy and Mass Spectrometry, Michael is participating in the development and deployment of portable testing for narcotics, at the field level, as a means of confirming suspected illegal substances and protecting First Responders.

無數科學家們研究並開發新的治療方法來對付癌症，這個令人聞之色變的疾病。從早期的非專一性的化學和放射線治療，到約西元 2000 年出現的標靶療法 (targeted therapy)，以及過去十年開始興盛的免疫療法 (immunotherapy) 等，每一步都是跟癌症對抗的重要里程碑。而從 2017 年 FDA 核准六款 CAR-T (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell) 細胞療法之後，CAR-T 細胞療法成為癌症研究和治療的一大主流方向。與此同時，目前核准的 CAR-T 療法需要從病人身上取得 T 細胞，改造後放回病人體內，高度客製化的要求導致療程的費用高昂；另外，目前的療法使用病毒將遺傳物質帶入取出的 T 細胞，以表達特定受體，但並非所有細胞都能承受這樣的改造流程，種種原因限制了 CAR-T 療法在臨床治療的影響力。 針對這些現有療法的不足，蕭世嘉博士創辦的育世博公司另闢蹊徑，將點擊化學（此技術獲2022年諾貝爾化學獎）應用在免疫細胞改造，避免了一些免疫細胞經病毒改造後失去活性的限制，並成功開發兩款改造 T 細胞進入臨床試驗。 想知道一般免疫細胞為何需要做專一性抗體修飾，育世博的抗體細胞連結技術 (Antibody Cell Conjugate, ACC) 和之前的改造方法相比還有何優勢，以及創辦新公司需要考慮哪些因素，千萬不要錯過這集精彩的訪談！  

Experts from Cell Signaling Technology answer questions from a recent webinar on mass spectrometry-based proteomics.

Revolutionizing Biomedical Research with Mass SpectrometryJoshua J. Coon discusses the transformative role of mass spectrometry in biomedical research. This technology, as he explains, allows for the precise weighing of molecules, providing critical insights into their identity and quantity. Coon's lab utilizes mass spectrometry to analyze complex biological systems, such as cells and tissues, identifying over 10,000 molecules in a single sample. This capability has significant implications for understanding genetic and lifestyle influences on molecular behavior in organisms. Coon's work exemplifies how a fundamental scientific tool can lead to profound discoveries in disease mechanisms and potential treatments. Linking Unknown Proteins to Disease: A New FrontierCoon highlights a groundbreaking project where his team investigates proteins of unknown function, particularly those involved in metabolism and located in mitochondria. By creating cell lines with each lacking a different protein and then using mass spectrometry to analyze the resulting molecular changes, they can infer relationships between known and unknown proteins. This approach has led to identifying the functions of several proteins and linking them to specific human disorders. This research is not only pioneering in its method but also crucial in laying the groundwork for new therapies, as understanding protein functions can lead to targeted drug development. Personal Journey: From Rural Roots to Research LeaderJoshua J. Coon shares his personal journey, beginning in rural Michigan, where his early interests in science and woodworking led him to the field of mass spectrometry. His path took him through the University of Florida for his PhD and the University of Virginia for postdoctoral studies, culminating in leading his research group at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Joshua emphasizes the joy of training the next generation of scientists, with his lab producing over 50 PhD students and postdocs who are now contributing significantly to science globally. This insight not only sheds light on Coon's professional achievements but also highlights his role in mentoring and shaping future scientific leaders.

Send us a Text Message.Picture a vampire. Yeah, you're picturing Dracula. That's Dracula. I mean unless you're a Twilight fan, then maybe you're picturing Robert Pattinson's fine self. But no, chances are you're picturing the title character from Bram Stoker's 1897 novel “Dracula” about a vampire named Count Dracula who moves from Transylvania to England in search of new victims of his undead curse. This character, who basically invented the genre of vampires in fiction, was loosely based on, at least named after, a 15th century Romanian prince named Vlad III AKA Vlad the Impaler AKA Vlad Dracula. But did you know, besides the name and the fact that they were both savage, blood-thirsty killers, Vlad Dracula and Count Dracula don't really have all that much in common? Let's fix that. Sources: National Geographic "Vlad the Impaler's thirst for blood was an inspiration for Count Dracula" by Juan Jose Sanchez ArreseigorArs Technica "Scientists find evidence that Vlad the Impaler shed bloody tears" by Jennifer OueletteACS Publications "Count Dracula Resurrected: Proteomic Analysis of Vlad III the Impaler's Documents by EVA Technology and Mass Spectrometry"Time Magazine "Bram Stoker Claimed that Parts of Dracula Were Real.

Michael Gray is the CEO of Actus Analytical, Inc., which develops spectroscopy solutions for public safety compliance, illicit drug detection, agricultural productivity, and other applications. Michael and his wife Nancy founded The Actus Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, in 2018. The Actus Foundation advocates for solutions to treating the entirety of the overdose epidemic problem in America, including the largely forgotten constituency of intermittent users. He founded, with partner Ed Kobilis in 2019, the Fentanyl Awareness Coalition - a coalition of tens of thousands of advocates in the US.  Michael is a popular speaker, offering unique analyses and suggestions for creative solutions to a new problem, i.e., an old problem with a recently altered paradigm. Michael walks participants through the murky world of the drug problem clarifying the threat and dispelling myths.    The Actus Foundation also advocates for the mentally ill, striving to deliver the message that mental illness is a disease the entire family suffers, and suffers in isolation; there are no well-worn paths to solutions available to those in chronic states of mental illness. For all our success in medical science – diagnostic practices, treatment/care and patient advocacy – our nation has left behavioral science in the stone age. Our practice of psychiatric care – diagnostic practices, treatment/care and patient advocacy – is the ugly stepchild hidden in the attic as the country proudly displays her medical science wonders to the world.   In addition to advocacy, Mr. Gray is offering his 35 years of professional expertise in the world of scientific instrumentation as another element of his work on behalf of the victims of overdose. As the Interdict Law and other legislative activity considers nascent technological advances in the ability to detect illicit drugs at the street level, Michael adds his professional expertise to that debate. With experience in the areas of Infrared Spectroscopy and Mass Spectrometry, Michael is participating in the development and deployment of portable testing for narcotics, at the field level, as a means of confirming suspected illegal substances and protecting First Responders.

What is life, and where does it come from? These are two of the deepest, most vexing, and persistent questions in science, and their enduring mystery and allure is complicated by the fact that scientists approach them from a myriad of different angles, hard to reconcile. Whatever else one might identify as universal features of all living systems, most scholars would agree life is a physical phenomenon unfolding in time. And yet current physics is notorious for its inadequacy with respect to time. Life appears to hinge on information transfer — but, again, what do we mean by “information,” and what it is relationship to energy and matter? If humankind can't settle fundamental issues with these theoretical investigations, we might be missing other kinds of life (and mind) — not just in outer space, but here on Earth, right beneath our noses. But new models that suggest a vastly wider definition of life offer hope that we might — soon! — not only learn to recognize the biospheres and technospheres of other living worlds, but notice other “aliens” at home, and even find our place amidst a living cosmos.Welcome to COMPLEXITY, the official podcast of the Santa Fe Institute. I'm your host, Michael Garfield, and every other week we'll bring you with us for far-ranging conversations with our worldwide network of rigorous researchers developing new frameworks to explain the deepest mysteries of the universe.This week on the show, we speak with SFI External Professor Sara Walker (Twitter, Google Scholar), Deputy Director of The Beyond Center at ASU, where she acts as Associate Professor in half a dozen different programs. In this conversation, we discuss her pioneering research in the origins of life and the profound and diverse implications of Assembly Theory — a new kind of physics she's developing with chemist Leroy Cronin and a team of SFI and NASA scholars.  Sara likes to speculate out loud in public conversation, so strap in for an unusually enthusiastic, animated, and free-roaming conversation at the very bleeding edge of science.

Epigenetics is the study of the changes that occur on top of the DNA without changing the genome sequence. These still affect the expression of our genes, and thereby shape our phenotype. Like the genome, epigenetic traits can be inherited. But unlike the genes, epigenetic traits are flexible and can be lost or regained and are influenced by our lifestyle. This makes them a tantalizing pharmaceutical target. EpiQMAx is a spin-out from https://www.lmu.de/en/ (LMU University) based on an idea from Prof. Axel Imhof, Dr. Moritz Voelker-Albert and Dr. Victor Solis who have worked in the Histone Modifications group at the https://www.en.bmc.med.uni-muenchen.de/index.html (BioMedical Center in Munich). Backed up by their knowledge and experience on mass spectrometry and epigenetic modifications, their goal is to contribute to the development of epigenetic drugs, together with the pharmaceutical industry. In this episode of BioInnovation Spotlight, we talk to Moritz Voelker-Albert about how EpiQMAx came about, how epigenetics can be used to inform us on our health, and his future plans for the company.

In this episode of HardwareX podcasts, we talk to Todd Duncombe who is the co-Editor-in-Chief of HardwareX. Todd is a Postdoctoral researcher at the renowned ETH Zurich, Department of BioSystems Science and Engineering in Basel, Switzerland. He has published several impactful papers and inventions on Droplet Microfluidic, Analytical Chemistry, Mass Spectrometry, MEMS, and Electrokinetic Transport. He developed assays to streamline biomanufacturing pathways and combinatorial screening, often improvising the techniques in mass spectrometry and electrophoresis. Todd also has been an active member of Tekla Labs. This episode was recorded, edited, and produced by Santosh Pandey from Iowa State University.

Poisons are a natural wonder and phenomena, one that should be handled with care, but have so much use within and outside of the occult. Yet, as with many things falling under the umbrella of left hand path, it is often demonized, seen as dark, ill-willed, and incapable of doing good. Join the hosts today as we discuss what the poison path is, misconceptions surrounding it, and how it actually requires having a hand in the benevolent and baneful realms.Come discuss in our Discord! https://discord.gg/kJthJyxTBcResources:Articles and Papers:Poison as medicine: https://www.amnh.org/explore/news-blogs/on-exhibit-posts/the-power-of-poison-poison-as-medicineAnimal Toxins and Therapeutic Treatment for Neurological Disease: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5829052/A Constructive Approach on Lethal Plants for Medicine: https://toxicology.imedpub.com/a-constructive-approach-on-lethal-plants-formedicinal-use.php?aid=23639Books:The Witches' Ointment by Thomas HatsisThe Poison Trials by Alisha RankinViridarium Umbris: the pleasure garden of shadow & Veneficium: Magic by Daniel SchulkeWitchcraft and the Poison Path by Daniel Schulke.Pharmakognosis trilogy by Dale PendellWant to learn more about separations?

No one really knew whether mass spectrometry was up to the task of population screening. Could the instruments cope with the tens-of-thousands of dried blood spots that needed to be analyzed every year? In the mid 1990s, Dr. Mike Morris began working with newborn screening labs around the world to try and answer these questions.

For the 30 years following Dr. Robert Guthrie's invention of a PKU screening test newborn screening tests were limited in number. That all changed when biochemists at Duke University first applied tandem mass spectrometry to solve a puzzling clinical case. The result changed the way the newborn screening community thought about adding new screening tests.

In this podcast, we conducted a panel discussion with experts from Peak Proteins on common protein challenges and the use of mass spec to overcome expression and purification issues. We also discussed how mass spec can also be utilized in working with complex proteins and in-process modifications.
