Hair follicles are dynamic structures that undergo cyclic phases of growth, regression and quiescence. The growth phase, known as anagen, lasts for several years, followed by a short regression phase called catagen. During catagen, most cells within the follicle undergo programmed cell death, but a small population of stem cells remains viable to replenish the follicle during the subsequent growth phase. Understanding the mechanisms involved in hair follicle regression is not only important for elucidating normal tissue homeostasis but also for studying pathological conditions such as cancer and aging. In a recent study, researchers Bradley D. Keister, Kailin R. Mesa and Krastan B. Blagoev from the National Science Foundation, The Jane Coffin Childs Memorial Fund for Medical Research, Yale School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, and Sorbonne Université shed light on the role of apoptotic cells in hair follicle regression and cell death. Their research paper was published in Oncotarget on October 19, 2023, entitled, “Apoptotic cells may drive cell death in hair follicles during their regression cycle.” “Here, we use a quantitative analysis of the length of hair follicles during their regression cycle.” Full blog - https://www.oncotarget.org/2023/11/29/can-mechanisms-of-hair-loss-shed-light-on-cancer-and-aging/ Paper DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.28529 Correspondence to - Krastan B.

In this thought provoking episode, we take a step back from profiling individuals cases, to lay the groundwork for understanding the complex world of serial killers. Dr. Jerrod Brown, a familiar voice and revered figure in the field, joins us to demystify the phenomenon of serial killers, challenging common myths and bringing to light the pivotal role of neurocriminology. From discussing the significance of a serial killer's signature behaviors to noting the Trauma Control Model,  this episode is an immersive journey into the psychological and behavioral patterns that define some of the most notorious criminals. We delve into how Attachment Disruption, stemming from excessive trauma, influences an individual's capacity for forming relationships, and potentially, their path into criminality. This episode is not about sensationalizing the macabre, but about equipping practitioners in criminal justice and human services with the knowledge to identify and manage behaviors indicative of deeper issues. Join us for an educational expedition into the minds of those who commit these crimes and discover how this knowledge can apply to a broader spectrum of case work.  Become a Neurocriminology Informed Professional!

We are going to combine all of our favorite topics  — red light therapy, the mitochondria and methylene blue  — into this brain-centric episode. We know that the brain is the most mitochondrial-dense tissue in the body and, thus, photobiomodulation (namely, near-infrared light) can have a very positive effect. We also know that most of the methylene blue ingested eventually accumulates in the brain, which is why it has countless brain-boosting benefits. However, when it comes to mitochondrial function it's a double-edged sword.   The health of your mitochondria can (of course) work for you or against you. And when the function of your mitochondria declines, it will likely show up in those tissues that are mitochondrial-dense (i.e., tissues that require the most amount of energy to function). Our nervous system is extremely energy-intensive and the brain is the king/queen of the nervous system. Thus, when mitochondrial dysfunction strikes, it hits the nervous system — and particularly the brain — hard. This largely explains why neurodegenerative diseases are an every-increasing presence in our modern-day world. While this may all seem like sobering and dire news, there is a silver lining that can put you back at ease. Again, while mitochondrial dysfunction can work against you, as long as you harness tactics that boost mitochondrial health (and, thus, inherently prevent, mitigate and sometimes even reverse mitochondrial dysfunction), then you are well on your way to staving off neurodegenerative disease. In today's episode, methylene blue takes center stage as we dig into the research to see how this spectacular salt can buoy your mitochondrial health and play a pivotal role in numerous neurodegenerative diseases.

At SupplySide West 2024, one of the biggest events was a panel discussion held at the Kyowa Hakko USA booth, featuring a star-studded cast of influential industry advocates: Dan Lourenço – Founder and CEO of Ghost Joey Savage – Chief Scientific Officer of Glaxon Chris Lockwood – VP of Scientific Affairs at Nutrabolt David Sandler – Scientific Consultant and COO of Jupiter Wellness The topic of the panel was The Growth of Branded Ingredients, with an initial focus on Cognizin Citicoline, an ingredient used by everyone listed above. The episode offers fresh and unique perspectives from each member, who have different reasons and purposes for various ingredients. When you're as big as these brands, you have to rely on trusted and legally compliant inputs, and few in this industry are as trusted as Kyowa Hakko! Embracing branded ingredients and collaborative competition This was a hallmark moment for the dietary supplement industry — one that we call “collaborative competition”. To put it bluntly, a panel like this simply wouldn't have happened 5+ years ago. But with a growing industry where all good players can win, and companies like PricePlow and Kyowa Hakko here to bring a network of forward-thinking industry advocates together, it's now a reality. With this, we get more information, less duplication of mistakes, and the consumer is ultimately the beneficiary. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/kyowa-branded-ingredients-ssw-2023 Video Version: Watch Dan, Joey, and Chris Talk Branded Ingredients https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjpmO_3nsk0 Audio Version available for download Detailed Show Notes: Embracing Branded Ingredients with Kyowa at SSW 2023 (0:00) – Introductions and Branded Ingredients (1:45) – Why use Cognizin in supplement formulations?

The genre of worker placement games is quite large and has evolved a lot over the years. Traditionally, worker placement was all about certain actions being unavailable to other players as soon as someone placed their worker there. At some point, games introduced shared worker place spots. Some games allowed players to kick workers out, returning them to another player who would effectively get another go. In this article, I want to look at the genre and pick out different implementations and variations on the theme.

In a debut format, host Shawn Rostker presents a narrated version of a peer-reviewed journal article from Nick Lekkas, a senior columnist at the Georgetown Security Studies Review and fellow SSP colleague. Nick's article, titled “Mobilized, Forgotten, Ignored: Russia's Control Mechanisms of its Minority Populations Amid the Russo-Ukrainian War,” explores the disproportionate effect that Russia's conscription efforts have had on ethnic groups from the Buryat, Kuban, and Dagestan regions. Nick analyzes the Kremlin's political motivations for sparing its Slavic population from front-line deployment, and explains why this imbalance may become a greater vulnerability for the Russian regime than it realizes.

Dr Glenn McConell chats with Professor Sue Bodine from the Oklahoma Medical ResearchFoundation, Oklahoma, USA. She is an expert on muscle, in particular muscle atrophy with inactivity/aging. We chatted about how with age muscle size is reduced and this is associated with a reduction in muscle fiber size and also a loss of fast muscle fibers. Resistance training (and perhaps intense endurance exercise) can attenuate the rate of muscle atrophy. We discussed how much muscle atrophy is due to age per se and how much is due to inactivity. Anabolic resistance, protein synthesis, the importance of strength for balance etc. A very interesting chat.0:00. Introduction + how Sue got into exercise research5:25.

With scientific rigor, these researchers discuss popular exercise topics while providing practical strategies for all.The interviewer, Emeritus Professor Glenn McConell, has an international research profile following 30 years of Exercise Metabolism research experience while at The University of Melbourne, Ball State University, Monash University, the University of Copenhagen and Victoria University.He has published over 120 peer reviewed journal articles and recently edited an Exercise Metabolism eBook written by world experts on 17 different topics (https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-94305-9).Connect with Inside Exercise and Glenn McConell at:Twitter: @Inside_exercise and @GlennMcConell1Instagram: insideexerciseFacebook: Glenn McConellLinkedIn: Glenn McConell https://www.linkedin.com/in/glenn-mcconell-83475460ResearchGate: Glenn McConellEmail: glenn.mcconell@gmail.comSubscribe to Inside exercise:Spotify: shorturl.at/tyGHLApple Podcasts: shorturl.at/oFQRUYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@insideexerciseAnchor: https://anchor.fm/insideexerciseGoogle Podcasts: shorturl.at/bfhHIAnchor: https://anchor.fm/insideexercisePodcast Addict: https://podcastaddict.com/podcast/4025218Not medical advice

In her segment, Thinking Beyond Mechanisms, Sarah Shipp talks about psychologist Steven Reiss' 16 Motivators or Human Needs in terms of game design and how considering these can help make a more engaging game.

“Interpersonal issues should be dealt with by the individuals, and team issues should be dealt with by the team collectively… I think most team leaders and team members would absolutely agree with that because, as you say, issues that pop up with individuals on the team, they're going to spill over into the team. And so what we're offering here is that early detection tool to prevent this very thing from happening.” - Winnie da SilvaIn this podcast episode, Winnie and Peter discuss the importance of continuous improvement mechanisms within teams. They highlight that, despite most teams wanting to continuously improve, they often struggle with how to do it. Peter and Winnie provide practical ways to implement mechanisms for ongoing improvement.Episode Highlights:Analogy from ManufacturingPeter shares an analogy from his experience working with manufacturing teams that use sensors in equipment in order to detect problems early. This mindset is about monitoring and early detection, ensuring corrective action can be taken before issues escalate.The Need for Continuous ImprovementPeter emphasizes the importance of continuous improvement mechanisms in maintaining and increasing team effectiveness over time. Teams that invest in these mechanisms become more effective, while those that don't tend to become less effective.The Challenge of TimePeter acknowledges that time is a common barrier to investing in continuous improvement mechanisms. Many teams may feel they don't need it or that their current processes are "good enough." Winnie and Peter argue that these mechanisms are crucial for building a truly effective team.Three Continuous Improvement MechanismsWinnie introduces three important continuous improvement mechanisms:Ongoing exchange of honest feedback between team members.Regular evaluation of team meetings.Team effectiveness checkpoints.Feedback ExchangeWinnie and Peter stress the importance of an ongoing exchange of honest feedback between team members. Regular feedback is critical for maintaining good interpersonal relationships in the face of changing workplace dynamics.They share two favorite questions for requesting feedback: "What am I doing that you appreciate most, and why?" and "What would you like me to do differently, and why?" The benefits of regular feedback include faster problem-solving, improved job performance, better processes, increased trust, conflict reduction, and more.Feedback's ImpactPeter mentions that their work on feedback skills has a lasting and substantial impact, with people sharing stories of how feedback has helped them even years after their engagement.Separating Personal and Team IssuesWinnie emphasizes the importance of addressing interpersonal issues individually and team issues collectively. Feedback exchanges help resolve interpersonal issues effectively.Meeting EvaluationsPeter discusses the significance of regular evaluations of team meetings, particularly during periods of change. Effective meetings can contribute to team success.He mentions various methods for conducting meeting evaluations, such as using Trello or Slack.Using Evaluation InputWinnie and Peter explain that the input collected from meeting evaluations can help meeting facilitators propose process tweaks to the team.They emphasize the importance of conducting evaluations frequently during periods of significant change in meeting processes.Team Effectiveness CheckpointsThe third continuous improvement mechanism involves conducting team effectiveness checkpoints, once or twice a year. This "pause and reflect" exercise is intended for an overall assessment of the team's functioning.Questions Used Winnie describes the metrics used in team effectiveness checkpoints. Team members rate the team on five dimensions: quality, efficiency, satisfaction, individual learning, and team learning. Members are then asked specifically about what is supporting and reducing team effectiveness. This is followed by suggested changes to maintain or increase effectiveness.Resistance to Continuous ImprovementWinnie acknowledges the resistance to investing in continuous improvement mechanisms is often due to a lack of time. They encourage teams to experiment with these practices and evaluate the return on investment.Leaders' Role in Continuous ImprovementPeter suggests that leaders should prioritize open and honest discussions that help teams pause and reflect on their functioning. Such discussions are the secret sauce for team effectiveness.ResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn Get the whole season and the companion guide at Winniedasilva.comE11: Tell Me What You Really Think with Peter Axelson

The statement "Simple basic processes can be put together to give a system-complicated behavior, as the brain" refers to the concept of emergent complexity. In this concept, a system made up of multiple simple components can exhibit complex behaviors that the individual components alone cannot. These simple basic processes, when structured in a certain way and interacting with one another, can create a more intricately functioning whole. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/david-nishimoto/message

Dr. C. Denise Okafor is an Assistant Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and of Chemistry at Pennsylvania State University. Many of the medications we take work by binding to a particular target and either turning off whatever is causing a problem or turning something on that is not working correctly. Denise's research examines how small molecules like drugs find and interact with the targets they are supposed to interact with. She is particularly interested in proteins that can be turned on or off by the small molecules/drugs that they bind with. While science is a large part of Denise's life, she also enjoys reading and writing fiction. Lately, she has been spending much of her free time with her kids, learning dances from Youtube videos and hanging out together. She received her B.S. in biomedical chemistry from Oral Roberts University and was awarded her M.S. in chemistry and a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Georgia Institute of Technology. Afterwards, Denise was selected to complete an Institutional Research and Academic Career Development Award from the NIH to conduct postdoctoral research at Emory University and teach at Morehouse and Spelman colleges in Atlanta. Denise has received a variety of awards and honors for her work, including a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Career Award at the Scientific Interface, an NSF CAREER Award for early investigators, and the NIH Director's New Innovator Award. In addition, she has been named a Keystone Symposia Fellow and a Kavli Foundation Fellow. In our interview, Denise talks more about her life and science.

Beezer Clarkson leads Sapphire Partners‘ investments in venture funds domestically and internationally. Beezer has invested in some of the best firms of a generation including USV and Point Nine to name a few. Beezer began her career in financial services over 20 years ago at Morgan Stanley in its global infrastructure group. Prior to joining Sapphire in 2012, Beezer managed the day-to-day operations of the Draper Fisher Jurvetson Global Network, which then had $7 billion under management across 16 venture funds worldwide. In Today's Episode with Beezer Clarkson We Discuss: LP Landscape: WTF is Going On: Are LPs really all closed for business? What has changed in what LPs want to see from managers they are looking to invest in? What has changed about the size and pace of new commitments for LPs? Are all LPs moving away from growth? 2. 2020-2022: Years in Review: Are LPs frustrated by managers who reduced deployment timelines to 12-18 months? Are LPs frustrated with managers who did not take liquidity when they could have done? How does Beezer advise managers on when and how to take liquidity in their best positions? Are managers accurately marking their portfolios to their LPs today? Why does Beezer believe the incentive mechanism for LPs is broken today in many ways? 3. How To Build a Top Decile Firm: Why does Beezer believe if you want to have the best returns, you have to have one company that returns the fund? Can you not do it with multiple half-fund returners? Is ownership core to all the best firm's top performance? Is it the size of outcome or the size of ownership that drives the best performance across the board? What does data show on how the best funds take significant risk? What are their loss ratios? What are the core tradeoffs to Beezer between scaling AUM and providing top decile returns? 4. LP Markets: The Times They are a Changing: Does Beezer believe LPs will remain cold on large $1BN+ growth firms? Which segments of the market are hot? Which are cold? What are the most significant changes we will see in the LP markets moving forward? Is today the new normal or are we in a downturn that we will come out of?

  Hey there, welcome back to the Empowered Nutrition Podcast. I'm Erin Skinner, your host, and I'm excited to take you on a journey into the incredible world of Berberine in this episode. Together, we'll discover the superpowers of this natural plant compound and its profound impact on our digestive, metabolic, and hormonal health. Berberine: The Unsung Hero Imagine Berberine as the unsung hero of the supplement world. It's not a prescription drug, but it's gaining superstar status for its unique ability to kickstart the release of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). These GLP-1 superpowers are a game-changer in the realm of metabolic health. Safety First: Navigating the Berberine Universe Let's navigate the safety of Berberine. Most adults can embrace its benefits, but we need to be cautious. Expect some minor side effects like mild abdominal discomfort, constipation, or the occasional bout of nausea. But a word of advice, Berberine is best suited for those facing health challenges. For healthy individuals, it may not be the supplement you're looking for. Witness Berberine's Breathtaking Feats Prepare to be wowed by Berberine's breathtaking feats. It swoops in to save the day in the battle against diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), high cholesterol, and the formidable obesity villain. It's a powerful ally, but having healthcare professionals as your sidekicks when introducing Berberine to your health journey is a smart move. Dosing Drama and Cautious Calm Let's dive into the dosing drama. The script reads 500 milligrams, two to three times a day, for one to six months. Berberine may be a powerful ally, but long-term alliances should be approached with caution. Especially if your medication squad is already on standby. Berberine's Secret Weapons Discover Berberine's secret weapons as I unravel the six primary mechanisms through which it conquers the battlefield. From rallying nitrate-reducing bacteria to amping up short-chain fatty acid production, this hero doesn't back down. It's all part of the grand plan to reduce inflammation, optimize bile metabolism, foster Akkermansia bacteria growth, and control hormones to slay the dragons of appetite and sugar cravings. Calling All Health Warriors Berberine steps into the spotlight when health warriors face particular adversaries. When weight loss resistance, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and PCOS are the battlegrounds, Berberine is your trusty sword. For other quests, consult your healthcare professionals for guidance. Enduring Legacy The awe-inspiring aspect of Berberine? Its enduring legacy. Even after Berberine exits the stage, its impact on the gut microbiome continues to shine. It's like having a guardian angel looking out for your health, long after the final bow. The Final Act As we wrap up this episode, I hope you've gained a newfound appreciation for the superpowers of Berberine. This superhero in supplement form may be your ticket to a healthier, happier future.

In this episode of Thinking Beyond Mechanisms, guest host Sarah Shipp discusses some of the terms that designers often talk about (balance, elegance, and efficiency) but turns many of them on their ear to look at them slightly askew. Sarah posits that thinking about these elements in the opposite may help struggling designers recognize their role in creating a game that meets these lofty (and often vague) goals.

Chris Yi takes a look at ten games that feature a way to manipulate the turn order each round or turn and lays out several games that highlight that feature!

What do you know about whole body vibration for bone density? Curious? Skeptical? Me too. But with more and more instances of degeneration, chronic illness or long haul preventing the active life that supports bone health, additional means of stimulating both muscle and bone density are always on my mind.  Falls are the second leading cause of unintentional death in the world. Older women are especially at risk due to decreased strength, reaction skills, balance, and low bone density.  Falls result in fracture 31% percent of the time and 95% of hip fractures are the result of falls. For those who've had a prior fracture, they are twice as at risk for a future fracture.  Whole body vibration (WBV) was first used by NASA with astronauts as a way to overcome the muscle and bone losses experienced by astronauts in space in the early 60s.  Why the Need for Whole Body Vibration for Bone Density? Let me give a little background on why this is so problematic.  Misinformed from perpetuating outdated information from both doctors and trainers (since 2015 evidence of not only increased safety and viability of high impact and high intensity exercise for osteoporotic postmenopausal women is much more promising than prior goals of stopping or slowing losses)  41% of women over 40 had either osteopenia (>31%) or osteoporosis (>14%) in a 2010 study Said differently, 31% of women over 40 had osteopenia and more than 30% of women over 60 had osteoporosis. The further from menopause (>10 years the increase in prevalence of osteoporosis = 40% compared to just 5 years post menopause at 9%) Whole  body vibration increased BMD by 2% with 5 minutes 3x a week (for 6 mos) in postmenopausal women. In physically restricted individuals it's an alternative to other exercise. In able-bodied, in combination with resistance training, WBV increases results of both muscle and bone regeneration.  While I wouldn't advocate only doing whole body vibration for bone density if you're able to do more, in conjunction with resistance training exercises, impact to your tolerance level, and attention to dietary and gut health, whole body vibration for bone density is an “extra” form of insurance.  It not only improves bone density, but is beneficial to muscle, balance, and healing or regeneration in the case of injury.  “Whole-body vibration therapy is an intentional biomechanical stimulation of the body using various frequencies of vibrations with the motive of health improvement. Ever since its discovery, this therapy has been extensively used in physiotherapeutic measures and the sports industry. For its property of increasing bone mass and density, space agencies use this therapy on astronauts who return to Earth after long-term space missions to regain lost bone and muscle mass. The potential of this therapy to restore bone mass encouraged researchers to look for its scope in the treatment of age-related bone degenerative diseases such as osteoporosis and sarcopenia, as well as in the correction of posture control and gait in geriatrics and post-menopausal women.” Mechanisms of Whole Body Vibration for Bone Density (and more)  affects bone metabolism, muscle function, muscle training, and the endocrine system​ Vibration therapy provides anabolic mechanical signals to the bone and musculotendinous systems It improves blood circulation to the bones, ensuring an improved nutrition supply.  Human adipose-derived stem cell differentiation into osteoblasts is facilitated by vibration therapy  inhibiting excessive osteoclast formation   improves bone health by amplifying gap junctional communication in osteocytes  activate the tonic vibration reflex and induce non-voluntary muscular contraction  activation of previously inactive muscle fibers  enhances the endocrine system's functioning: Growth hormone increases  What questions do you have about WBV for osteoporosis?  References:  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3139257/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36793830/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27331044/ https://www.hopkinsarthritis.org/arthritis-info/osteoporosis-info/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6422949/#:~:text=Multiple%20factors%20are%20known%20to,fracture%20%5B18%E2%80%9320%5D.

Vacations are over and the kids are back at school. It's that time of year when we often feel the need to get “back on track” and into the structure and routines that help us thrive. But something that we rarely consider is that as life changes, so does our personal “recipe for success.” Be it in relationships, careers, added responsibilities, shifting hormones, or the ages of your kids, life has a way of changing and throwing curve balls when it comes to maintaining a healthy routine.  So if you're looking to establish some new habits around sleep, food, movement, mental health, unhealthy coping mechanisms  (or any other area of positive change), this episode is the perfect place to start. With the tips you gather here, you'll be able to evaluate all the variables in your life at this moment so you can create habits and routines that are both achievable and supportive of your body's needs.  In this episode, you'll learn:  Why we have to consider our season of life as we build new habits How one area of change can easily fuel change in other areas of your health Why letting habits go can be just as powerful as adding habits in How to break down your habits into achievable tasks The impact of journaling about the change you want to see in yourself   To connect with Wendy about her coaching and programming, visit: https://www.wendymccallum.com/

There's a very pervasive social narrative that moms need alcohol in order to survive motherhood. This is what is known as “mommy wine culture” and chances are, you're all too familiar with this messaging because the marketing behind it is really unavoidable.  On this episode, I'm joined by life coach and author of It's Not About the Wine, Celeste Yvonne to help us uncover the real reasons moms want to escape and why alcohol as a coping mechanism is just adding to the mayhem. We will talk about the challenges for mothers returning to the workforce, the insane lack of postpartum support, and the pressure to regularly achieve impossible parenting standards. But we're not just exposing the problem. Celeste gives us some practical advice for how to start redistributing the mental load with your partner or support system and why being active in a sober community can transform your perspective on motherhood.  In this episode, you'll learn Why it's important to get curious about your defensiveness about drinking The moment that Celeste learned she didn't have to gaslight herself any longer Why the pressure to enjoy every moment of motherhood is unsustainable The first step to take towards redistributing the division of labor in your home Why you don't have to identify as an “alcoholic” (or hit rock bottom) before you get curious about your relationship with alcohol To learn more about Celeste and her work, connect with her on her website at https://www.celesteyvonne.com, or follow her on Instagram @theultimatemomchallenge.

Join us for a deep dive into the molecular science of anti aging with the brilliant mind behind the innovative brand MDAiRE , Dr Stefani Kappel MD. This episode focuses on the uniquely intricate science of aging down to the major molecular pathways involved including those targeted by the MDAiRE range of products. Dr Kappel talks to us all about the details of ARE and how she utilized the details of understanding its mechanism of action while creating her incredibly efficacious brand. ARE is an acronym for an important signal transduction pathway in the skin. It stands for the Antioxidant Response Element (ARE). The “i” in science represents “the induction of". Hence AIRE represents the activation of this powerful anti-aging pathway. Inducing this key anti-aging pathway results in the transcription and translation of protective genes that play a major role in the anti-aging process. Activation of the AIRE pathway protects skin cells from oxidative stress which remains one of the best etiologies to explain the mechanism of aging.  Dr. Kappel is a board certified, and double fellowship trained Dermatologist and Mohs Micrographic Surgeon with an active practice in Newport Beach California. She has over 15 years of experience in practicing Dermatology and studying the skin. She has a Medical Degree from UC Irvine and completed her residency in Dermatology at UCLA. Upon completing her residency, she joined the full-time faculty at UCLA as a Clinical Instructor and Professor in Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery. She then went on to complete advanced fellowship training in Dermatologic Surgery at UC Davis and Cosmetic Dermatology at the Laser and Skin Surgery Center of Northern California with world-renowned expert, Dr. Suzanne Kilmer. After fellowship, she was appointed the Director of Dermatologic Surgery at the Laser & Skin Surgery Center of Northern California where she has remained active in clinical trials and has been on the forefront of the latest advances in aesthetics and dermatology.Support the showFollow The Show On All Socials Using The Tag @skincareanarchy
