Several years ago, in 2016, we told a story about Amy Pearl. For as long as she could remember, Amy loved meat in all its glorious cuts and marbled flavors. And then one day, for seemingly no reason, her body wouldn't tolerate it.  No steaks. No brisket. No weenies. It made no sense: why couldn't she eat something that she had routinely enjoyed for decades?  It turned out Amy was not alone. And the answer to her mysterious allergy involved maps, a dancing lone star tick, and a very particular sugar called Alpha Gal.  In this update, we discover that our troubles with Alpha Gal go way beyond food. We go to NYU Langone Health hospital to see the second ever transplant of a kidney from a pig into a human, talk to some people at Revivicor, the company that bred the pig in question, and go back to Amy to find out what she thinks about this brave new world. The original episode was reported by Latif Nasser, and produced by Annie McEwen and Matt Kielty. Sound design and scoring from Dylan Keefe, Annie McEwen, and Matt Kielty. Mix by Dylan Keefe with Arianne Wack. The update was reported and produced by Sarah Qari. It was sound designed, scored, and mixed by Jeremy Bloom. LATERAL CUTS: How does a tick bit can cause a red meat allergy? - An episode from our friends over at Science Friday, who had a recent conversation with the researcher who discovered the connection, decades ago.   Support Radiolab by becoming a member today at Radiolab.org/donate.    Sign up for our newsletter!!

In the realm of medical advancements, the development of innovative devices that enhance patient care while minimizing risks is of paramount importance. Aorto Medical, a company founded by a visionary entrepreneur and his co-founder, has introduced a groundbreaking device that addresses the critical challenges faced by heart failure patients. This device not only simplifies the treatment process but also significantly reduces the risks associated with traditional heart surgeries.Innovative Heart Device Reduces Surgery RisksHeart failure is a condition that predominantly affects older adults, particularly those over the age of 65. For these patients, undergoing open chest surgery for heart transplantation or the implantation of an artificial heart pump poses substantial risks. The complexities and dangers associated with such invasive procedures can deter both patients and healthcare providers. Aorto Medical's innovative device offers a solution that circumvents the need for open chest surgery. Instead, it can be implanted through a minimally invasive procedure lasting just half an hour. This remarkable approach allows for the treatment of heart failure without the extensive risks associated with traditional surgical methods.The device, which is compact and rubberized, functions similarly to an artificial heart pump. Its design is deceptively simple, yet it provides a unique value proposition that appeals to medical professionals. By implanting the device into the aorta - the body's largest artery - Aorto Medical's technology effectively redistributes blood supply. The device reduces blood flow to secondary regions while redirecting it to the most vital organs, thereby ensuring that critical areas of the body receive the necessary blood supply.Not Just Effective, but Cost-EffectiveOne of the most significant advantages of this device is its cost-effectiveness. Traditional artificial heart pumps often come with hefty price tags and complications, such as the necessity for external batteries that require frequent recharging. Patients using these pumps face restrictions on their daily activities, including the inability to shower normally due to the risks involved. In contrast, Aorto Medical's device achieves the same primary objective of blood supply redistribution at one-seventh of the cost, making it a more accessible option for patients.The History of Aorto MedicalThe inspiration behind this innovative device stems from the founder's medical education and experiences. Growing up in Morocco, he recognized the intricate relationship between the heart and kidneys. He learned that when the kidneys do not receive adequate blood supply, they trigger a false alarm that leads to fluid retention in the body. This phenomenon, known as cardio-renal syndrome, complicates heart failure management. By addressing this underlying issue, Aorto Medical's device effectively turns off the false alarm, providing a dual benefit of managing heart failure while protecting kidney function.The journey to developing this device was not without challenges. The founder took a non-traditional path, diverging from the typical career trajectory of medical professionals. His willingness to embrace risk and pursue innovative solutions exemplifies the entrepreneurial spirit that drives medical advancements. This commitment to improving patient outcomes is evident in the design and function of the device, which prioritizes simplicity and efficacy.Conclusion: A Safer and Less Expensive Heart ProcedureIn conclusion, Aorto Medical's innovative heart device represents a significant leap forward in the treatment of heart failure. By reducing the need for invasive surgeries, lowering costs, and addressing the critical relationship between the heart and kidneys, this device not only enhances patient safety but also improves the quality of life for those affected by heart conditions. As the medical field continues to evolve, solutions like Aorto Medical's device will play an essential role in shaping the future of healthcare, making it safer and more effective for patients around the world.Interview by Don Baine, The Gadget Professor.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

In a time when AI is creating new realities faster than we can make sense of them, we need to imagine possible future scenarios to prepare. Which is why a new novel by Marschall Runge, Dean of the University of Michigan Medical School, is so prescient. In his book “Coded to Kill,” Runge helps us imagine what could go wrong, even if so much can go right. Abdul reflects on the critical role of imagination in science. Then he sits down with Dean Runge to talk about what his book can teach us about how we prepare for a future of artificial intelligence in medicine.

Summary In this episode, Evan and Jonathan are joined by Ellie White to discuss the accessibility of medical devices, specifically insulin pumps and glucose monitors. Ellie shares her experience managing type 1 diabetes and the challenges she faces with the current lack of accessibility in these devices. They also discuss the importance of advocacy and legislation to improve accessibility in medical devices. The conversation concludes with a fun segment on the Sandwich of the Week. Takeaways Medical devices such as insulin pumps and glucose monitors often lack accessibility features, making it difficult for individuals with visual impairments to manage their conditions. Advocacy and legislation, such as the Medical Device Non-Visual Accessibility Act, are crucial in pushing for improved accessibility in medical devices. Ideally, accessible medical devices should have standalone features with tactile buttons or voice prompts, rather than relying solely on smartphone apps. The accessibility of medical devices can greatly impact the quality of life for individuals with visual impairments, and it is important for manufacturers to prioritize inclusivity.

There are people who are transhumanists whose endgame is a promise of eternal life. It is the end game prior to the end. The end is eternity, because you are an eternal being. You will either be with God and the fruits of His Spirit or not. Transhumanism starts with the transing of kids to normalize medical science mutilating you into a new being. But, that is just the first step. I will rely on the words of a pro LGBT man who wrote an article in 2015 in which he predicted the reality we are living in now as well as the future of humanity. He states that one of the goals of transhumanism is to make people god-like and to live forever. It is an upside down and inverse view of the Holy Scriptures. It is a lie. The endgame is the beginning of Satan's army.What does God's Word say? Ezekiel 16:49 49 “‘Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.Ezekiel 18:20 20 The one who sins is the one who will die. The child will not share the guilt of the parent, nor will the parent share the guilt of the child. The righteousness of the righteous will be credited to them, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against them.Ezekiel 25:17 17 I will carry out great vengeance on them and punish them in my wrath. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I take vengeance on them.'”Episode 1,462 Links:The Future of the LGBT Movement May Involve TranshumanismThe Gay Rights Movement Has Been Hijacked by a Radical Transhumanist Agenda Sen. Rand Paul on Fauci's Long History of Bioweapons Research: “One of the most alarming quotes which really tells you who Anthony Fauci is, is in 2012 he was asked about this and he says, ‘There are some risks. A pandemic could occur from these experiments but the knowledge is worth the risk.'…These are people getting paid billions of dollars and Robert Kennedy has recounted this better than anyone else, the connection to bioweapons trade.4Patriots https://4Patriots.com/Todd Stay connected when the power goes out and get free shipping on orders over $97.   Alan's Soaps https://alanssoaps.com/TODD Use coupon code ‘TODD' to save an additional 10% off the bundle price.

Today's entrepreneur has helped the blind see and the sick breathe. He overcame serious limitations to help people during the pandemic - and now he is here to tell us the story of his epic 28 days to save the world on The Business of You! Dan Purvis is a serial entrepreneur and the founder of six companies. He is the CEO and co-founder of Velentium, a professional engineering firm that specializes in the design and manufacturing of therapeutic and diagnostic active medical devices. He has 25 years of practical know-how in creating corporate environments that people want to work in and clients want to engage with. The theme throughout his professional and nonprofit endeavors has been an intense love for people, which led Dan to become a student of culture. Dan's passion is building things. His background is in automation, controls, and software. When working with people, he identifies possibilities for what they can accomplish. Dan Purvis is doing remarkable things. Velentium designs and develops plantable neurostimulator devices that change lives for a better world. One of the companies Velentium partners with is called Second Sight. Together, they help the blind see - using a special pair of glasses that senses light, the imagery is played on the wearer's optic nerve. At Velentium, what began as a two-person operation grew to a multimillion-dollar-firm within three years. From 2014 on, Velentium has averaged 50% annual growth year over year. Velentium has executed 1,500 projects in 15+ countries, working with over 100 clients. Velentium has recently been named to the 18th Annual Aggie 100™, honored as fastest-growing company. Rise to the occasion Velentium exists to change lives for a better world - and they stick to their promise to rise to the occasion when things get hard.  When Velentium scaled up and took on manufacturing, Dan was proud of their dedication and hard work. But nothing could have prepared him for what came next. When the pandemic hit, Dan realized that one of their partner companies was going to have to begin producing thousands more ventilators, at a rate they'd never been able to deliver before.  With his own family in mind, Dan decided to be part of the solution. He made some phone calls and specifically requested to fly from Houston to Seattle where the first COVID deaths had occurred - just in time for Ventech Systems' 8am morning meeting. In partnership with General motors, Ventech took the 100 units a month they were producing and turned it into 10,000 units a month in just 28 days. Radical transparency forges strong bonds When Velentium initially received the massive, record-breaking order from General Motors for thousands of ventilators, Dan Purvis turned it down. Everyone thought he was crazy.  Shocked, the purchasing department called him on the phone. So far, he had risen to every request and need they had - so why was he turning this one down? Dan was honest with them: He could not deliver what they were asking for, by the date they had requested. They asked him for a new date, but he still could not give a definitive answer.  After ramping up production to unprecedented speeds, Dan was still wary of making promises he could not follow through on. Essentially, he asked them to work with him. He would push his team as far as they could go and produce as much as they could - and he would promise to brief them daily on Velentium's progress.  While this was different from what General Motors had dealt with in the past, they appreciated Dan's transparency. He hired his own personal friends for their purchasing team, asked his employees to go above and beyond and still required that every ventilator be thoroughly tested. He wrote a book, 28 Days to Save the World, to tell the story of what it looks like when an entrepreneur has to rise to an extraordinary challenge, overcoming all obstacles.  Enjoy this world-changing conversation with Dan Purvis - about work culture, guiding principles, teamwork and courage. Quotes “We were a contract design and development house that is now a contract design, development and manufacturing house. It's really important for your listeners to know that as they get more and more successful in their entrepreneurial cycle, just understand that growth eats cash. The more you grow, the faster you grow, the less cash you'll have. With manufacturing, we can now finish the project, hand it into our manufacturing shop, and now we can have revenue for the life of the product that we just developed!” “Thinking as entrepreneurs: How do I get my business model into a place where there is perpetual repeatable revenue and I don't have to go through the whole sales effort again and again to keep revenue up?” “I could not have a time where it's your mom and my mom, and they both have COVID - but there's only one ventilator left. I thought, if we can make a difference in that, we need to. So I flew out there.” “We doubled the size of the company in about a week, and through that process, just stepped in over and over and over again. We ended up writing a book about it, 28 Days to Save the World. One of the things I say in that book is that you're going to have all-in moments that come across you in your career as an entrepreneur. In those moments, it is absolutely critical that you step in and volunteer yourself - why not me? Why not you? When it comes, you have to not just dip your toe in the water. You've got to cannonball. And we did.” “We had 120 people in what was a company of about 48…working 16 hours days, seven days a week. And then I called several of my friends who were all at home watching The Office reruns because they were bored, wondering what's going to happen with the world. I was like, Are you bored? They're like, I'm bored out of my mind. I was like, well, join our purchasing team!” “We wrote 28 Days to Save the World, to tell that story, but more importantly, to give entrepreneurs like your listeners a good, hard perspective of the culture. Work we have been doing for ten years is what enabled that story.” “At Valentium, we have four principles that govern all that we do: Our passion, honor, humble charisma, and the commitment to changing lives for a better world.” “When you say, how do you build culture? Know your principles.” Links mentioned in this episode: Visit the website for Velentium at https://www.velentium.com/  Purchase Dan's book, 28 Days to Save the World: https://www.amazon.com/28-Days-Save-World-Crafting/dp/1637741901  Follow Dan Purvis on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-purvis-velentium/

 If you are going to create generational wealth, you must own something. Whether it is a business, real estate, stocks, or insurance, you must have meaningful relationships that propel you forward to get to that first liquidity event and understand the power of encouragement.This is the mindset of Derrick l Miles, president and CEO at Courmed, a healthcare solutions company offering enterprise software and innovative concierge delivery of healthcare products and services. He has failed forward many times before he learned what he needed to do in scaling a crowdsource healthcare delivery service.Failure is a part of the success story. Words of encouragement speak power into your business and your life. A simple word of encouragement can save your life and the lives of others. Says Derrick Miles as a former hospital executive, he experienced a tremendous amount of early success on the operational side of the business, becoming a CEO of a specialty hospital at age 31, and being part of teams that financially transformed poorly performing hospitals.After launching a Q4 or 2018 at Vizient headquarters in North Texas and with additional regional headquarters expansion plans, including a gateway city in Arizona and California. As a result, Miles is now a private aviation customer of JSX. With the CourMed proprietary software, they can utilize the Microsoft marketplace and AppStore portals to quickly add more states and foreign countries to their access range.Will Miles join Robert F.
