Trump's 100-Day Diplomacy: Wins and Setbacks Abroad – Trump scores victories as Mexico agrees to water deliveries, India ramps up U.S. oil purchases, and Egypt faces pressure to grant free U.S. access to the Suez Canal. But his strategy falters in Ukraine and Canada, with Putin walking away from negotiations and Canada electing a leftist government amid anti-Trump backlash. Can Trump Eliminate Income Tax? The Math Doesn't Work – The White House floats ending income taxes for Americans earning under $200K, funded by tariffs. But with federal spending at $18B/day and tariff revenue projected at $3B/day, the math—and the politics—don't support it without massive cuts. Supply Chain Reality: Mixed Signals from the Economy – Treasury says U.S. shelves are stocked and supply chains are realigning, but UPS layoffs and shrinking West Coast port traffic hint at deeper disruptions ahead. “Take Back Your Health” Campaign Launches Nationwide – HHS Secretary RFK Jr. leads a new effort to combat obesity, encourage fitness, and educate Americans on better food choices. The military obesity crisis adds urgency to the movement. Medical Breakthroughs on Gut Health – New research shows gut bacteria transplants can dramatically reduce fibromyalgia symptoms, and coffee (not caffeine) boosts resilience and gut health. Bryan toasts the news with his favorite brew, Wacker Coffee. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32​

Imagine your doctor could precisely predict your personal risk of disease, diagnose the cause of illness with pinpoint accuracy when it did occur, and develop an effective treatment plan with low side effects the first time, rather than through trial and error. That's the promise of personalized medicine. And it would be a revolution in healthcare. At the heart of this vision is the notion that our genetic differences have a big impact on how each of us responds to disease and treatment. To realize a future of personalized medicine then, we need to understand and investigate just how genetic variations, including mutations, contribute to illness and respond to doctors' attempts to address it. But how can scientists do that efficiently with a human genome that spans about three billion base pairs of DNA across tens of thousands of genes? That's where the work of PhD student Dawn Chen comes in. A student in Harvard's Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology and the Systems, Synthetic, and Quantitative Biology Program, Chen was named a recipient of the 2025 Harold M. Weintraub Graduate Student Award for Outstanding Achievement and Exceptional Research in the Biological Sciences, presented by Seattle's Fred Hutch Cancer Center. With her colleagues in the lab of Harvard professor Fei Chen, Dawn Chen is developing an innovative gene-editing tool known as helicase-assisted continuous editing, or HACE. A breakthrough in genetic engineering, supported in part by funds from the National Institutes of Health, HACE makes edits to specific genes, allowing researchers to investigate how genetic variations contribute to disease. The technique could lead to the identification of specific mutations that influence the effectiveness of drugs and therapies for illnesses like cancer.

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of 'Discover Daily', we explore a groundbreaking medical achievement: an Australian man who survived 100 days with a BiVACOR titanium heart before successfully receiving a donor heart transplant. This world-first procedure marks a significant milestone in artificial heart technology, potentially revolutionizing treatment options for millions of heart failure patients globally. The BiVACOR device, featuring magnetic levitation technology and a single moving part, represents a major advancement in addressing the critical shortage of donor hearts.We also examine Meta's upcoming launch of Community Notes across Facebook, Instagram, and Threads—a crowd-sourced content moderation system designed to replace third-party fact-checking with a less biased approach to information quality. The feature will enter public beta on March 18, 2025, with Meta building upon X's open-source algorithm while implementing careful monitoring systems during the initial rollout phase.Additionally, we discuss Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's thought-provoking proposal to give AI models an "I quit this job" button, raising profound questions about AI autonomy, ethics, and potential machine consciousness. This controversial idea suggests implementing a preference framework that would allow advanced AI systems to opt out of tasks they find unpleasant, challenging traditional views of AI as mere tools without agency and potentially necessitating a reevaluation of how we treat these increasingly sophisticated systems.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/meta-launching-community-notes-zW.K9fx0S9eAcLwAin8LXw https://www.perplexity.ai/page/anthropic-ceo-floats-ai-quit-b-BotCYKfST6GePBfE_Psp6whttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/man-survives-with-titanium-hea-y6lkRQKXSNyztF.8dQL1uQ**Introducing Perplexity Deep Research:**https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/introducing-perplexity-deep-research Perplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

In 2000, the United States declared that measles had been eliminated. But just 15 years later, the disease made a comeback—and it hasn't gone away since. In this episode, Dr. Adam Ratner, director of the Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at NYU and author of Booster Shots: The Urgent Lessons of Measles and the Uncertain Future of Children's Health, explains why measles outbreaks are occurring again—as vaccine hesitancy and the antivax movement is on the rise—and what this means for the future of children's health.Ratner describes why measles is the most contagious disease we know of, and why it can be particularly harmful to children. As vaccination rates for children and adults continue to decrease in the U.S., are we at risk of undoing decades of medical progress? And what can we do to stop it?

In the past few years, we've learned that GLP-1 drugs don't just help with diabetes or increase people's feelings of fullness to help them lose weight. They have broad effects on substance abuse and behavior. They even seem to help with otherwise incurable illnesses, like Alzheimer's and schizophrenia. This month, a team of scientists studying 2 million patients in the Veterans Affairs medical system found that GLP-1s were associated with “a reduced risk of substance use and psychotic disorders, seizures, neurocognitive disorders (including Alzheimer's disease and dementia), coagulation disorders (clotting), cardiometabolic disorders (like strokes and heart attacks), infectious illnesses and several respiratory conditions.” Today's guest is a coauthor on the paper, Ziyad Al-Aly. He is a physician-scientist at Washington University in St. Louis. We talk about his new paper, the steps he took to make sure his findings were trustworthy, why GLP-1 drugs might work so well, what they're teaching us about the brain and body, how they're scrambling our sense of where volition begins and where free will ends, and what scientists should do next with the revelation that these drugs have effects that go far beyond obesity and diabetes.

When Luther's daughter, Jane Lockwood, was just 5 years old, she was diagnosed with a rare and incurable form of muscular dystrophy.  Luther and his family resolved to do something about it. During the two decades since, they founded the McColl-Lockwood Laboratory and dedicated enormous resources to creating more effective treatments for the disease to help not only Jane, but thousands of others like her.  In this episode, Luther and Jane share their experience. Jane describes what it's been like to live with the disease – and how it hasn't stopped her from achieving her dream of enrolling in law school. Meanwhile, Luther gives insight to their global search for the best minds researching muscular dystrophy, and how that may be leading to new and effective treatments.  We're joined in this conversation by Frank's friend Larry Powell. Larry has been an inspiration for and informal advisor to our podcast for a long time. He suggested that we feature Luther and Jane's story, and we liked the idea so much we asked him to be a part of it.  Don't forget to subscribe or follow us on Apple Podcasts so you can stay up to date on the good news, including future shows and book giveaways.
