1. “Bioaccumulation of Microplastics in Decedent Human Brains” (Nature Medicine, 2024) This study confirms the presence of microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) in human brain tissue, particularly the frontal cortex. Researchers used pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) and electron microscopy to analyze postmortem samples, finding polyethylene (PE) as the dominant plastic type. Brain tissue exhibited significantly higher plastic concentrations than the liver or kidney, with even greater MNP accumulation in individuals diagnosed with dementia. The findings raise concerns about potential neuroinflammation and long-term neurological effects, though causality remains unproven. 2. “Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Atheromas and Cardiovascular Events” (New England Journal of Medicine, 2024) This study investigates the presence of microplastics in atherosclerotic plaques and their potential role in cardiovascular disease. Analyzing carotid artery plaques from patients undergoing endarterectomy, researchers found polyethylene (PE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in 58.4% of plaques. Patients with MNP-containing plaques had a 4.53 times higher risk of heart attack, stroke, or death over a three-year follow-up. The study also linked MNP presence to elevated inflammatory markers (IL-18, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6), suggesting that microplastics might exacerbate cardiovascular disease progression.

The conventional methods of management and discipline rely heavily on removing struggling students from the classroom — putting them even further behind. And this discipline disproportionately affects students of color.But educators and researchers have been developing ways to avoid the school-to-prison pipeline — a lot of these fall under the umbrella of “restorative practices.” So what are these restorative practices? And how is the attempt to implement them in MNPS going?This episode was produced by Magnolia McKay.Guests: Laura Fittz, Ph.D. Candidate, Vanderbilt University Daren Dickson, Chief Culture Officer, Valor Collegiate Academies Mary-Owen Holmes, Teacher at Glencliff High School; Facilitator, The Peace Team Further Reading and ListeningFor additional information about the use of restorative justice, you can listen to past This is Nashville episodes including "Restorative practices in the legal system" and our profile on Dr. Rich Milner, the Cornelius Vanderbilt Chair of Education in the Department of Teaching and Learning at Vanderbilt University.
On Today's Show "It (TV) was my junk food, but also it was my in with the kids to be able to talk about pop culture, to know all the little nuances and jokes about the cultural zeitgeist things.” - Dan SantatMedia and stories around us around us are more than just entertainment. They provide a common space, a piece of the world around us that connects us to others. We learn from these stories, shape our own views and ideas, and listen to and share these ideas with others. Dan Santat, a son of Thai immigrants in rural SoCal, found solace and belonging in the storytelling of 80's TV shows and movies, connecting with others' experiences and perspectives. His fascination with storytelling coupled with his talent for drawing led him on a journey of self-discovery that would ultimately diverge from the career path his parents had urged him to pursue.In this episode, Dan shares openly about his fraught relationship with his dad. Dan's honesty is humorous and nostalgic and real all at once. He talks about the freedoms and limitations of growing up in the 1980s and how they helped him discover a passion for storytelling as a means of communicating. Dan also tells us about his experience of embracing art, despite his parents' differing expectations, and how his journey has impacted the messages he imparts to students he meets today.***Connect with Jordan and The Reading Culture @thereadingculturepod and subscribe to our newsletter at thereadingculturepod.com/newsletter. ***In his reading challenge, "Profound Panels" Dan wants listeners to embrace the hidden wisdom in the medium that first sparked his love of storytelling: comics.You can find his list and all past reading challenges at thereadingculturepod.com.This episode's Beanstack Featured Librarian is Connie Sharpe from Metro Nashville Public Schools.

It's been a minute since our last episode … sorry to keep you waiting to hear just why Bailey on Greenwood Avenue was shut down, but I couldn't explain how Bailey closed without the help of Principal Christian Sawyer and Dr. Alan Coverstone who was the Director of the iZone in MNPS and the administrator who got the ball rolling for the Bailey transformation – and those two guys are tough to pin down. Once we got to talking, I was fascinated by the way Christian and Alan reflected on their experience with Bailey, taking responsibility, not blaming anybody else, but still speaking forthrightly about systemic blind spots, racism, and the political ecology of the district and the state that made it extremely difficult to set a course and stick with it. As we've said from the very beginning, this is both object lesson and cautionary tale.This is the final episode of Season 1. In the second season, slated to drop as school reopens in September, we'll be thinking about lessons learned. We won't leave Bailey behind, but we'll be bringing other schools and other educators into dialogue with the Bailey team and the Bailey experience. Look for us then as we think more about what teaming looks like in elementary or secondary schools, as we consider the ups and downs of teacher residencies, as we explore how committed educators are able to focus on what's possible despite systemic constraints, and more from families and students. If you have an idea you'd like to have us explore or some ways you and your colleagues have found to focus on the relations and responsibility that have to be at the center of our educational efforts, please drop a note to chasingbaileypod@gmail.com.

Barbara Stengel, Christian Sawyer In this eighth episode, there are references to a variety of social, educational and historical news and commentary. You can find sources to find out more about these at our website: www.chasingbaileypod.com.Chasing Bailey is a podcast about a group of teachers, leaders, and others who dedicated themselves to changing the fortunes of a failing middle school in Nashville TN from 2012 to 2016. They succeeded, but their achievement was bittersweet. In 2016, the district closed that school. Still, those who were there knew they had stumbled onto something special, some important educational truths that might help all of us find our way out of the morass that COVID 19 has left us in. Our Host is Barb Stengel, a retired professor of educational practice at Vanderbilt University's Peabody College. She is a self-described fan of the Bailey experiment.Between 2012 and 2016, Barb spent one day a week at Bailey, coordinating the school's collaboration with Peabody, and serving as an informal cheerleader while also learning from this remarkable effort. She knew early on it was a story worth telling. So over the past year, Barb has spent time with dozens of staff, students, parents, and district administrators who were eager to talk about their experiences. This episode was edited and co-produced by Brenna Fallon. The executive producer is Dr. Lowery Woodall, Millersville University of Pennsylvania. Our theme music is Midnight Blues by lemonmusicstudio.

Expanding access to alternative forms of schooling is central to Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee's education plans. The Educational Savings Account Program gives families access to vouchers that allow students in Davidson and Shelby counties to use money designated for public schooling and apply it to tuition at alternative institutions like private schools, in addition to other approved expenses. The act that created the program was passed in 2019, but it has been challenged in court. In today's episode, we discuss the status of the program and talk to parents about why they might, or might not, opt to use the voucher program. But first, we check hear the latest on Metro Nashville's community-based efforts around violence reduction. Guests: Paige Pfleger, WPLN criminal justice reporter Mariah Timms, justice reporter, The Tennessean Tanya Coats, president, Tennessee Education Association Shaka Mitchell, director of state strategy and advocacy, Tennessee Federation for Children Emily Masters, MNPS District 3 representative Trisha Lucente, Parents' Choice Tennessee Jason Sparks, MNPS parent
Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.09.07.507054v1?rss=1 Authors: de Vincentiis, S., Baggiani, M., Merighi, F., Cappello, V., Lopane, J., Di Caprio, M., Costa, M., Mainardi, M., Onorati, M., Raffa, V. Abstract: Mechanical stimulation modulates neural development and neuronal activity. In a previous study, we proposed magnetic nano-pulling as a tool to generate active forces. By loading neural cells with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), a precise force vector is remotely generated through static magnetic fields. In the present study, human neural stem cells (NSCs) were subjected to a standard differentiation protocol, in the presence or absence of nano-pulling. Under mechanical stimulation, we found an increase in the length of the neural processes which showed an enrichment in microtubules, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. A stimulation lasting up to 52 days induced a strong remodelling at the level of synapse density and a re-organization of the neuronal network, halving the time required for the maturation of neural precursors into neurons. We then injected the MNP-loaded NSCs into mouse spinal cord slices, demonstrating that nano-pulling stimulates the elongation of the NPC processes and modulates their orientation even in an ex vivo model system. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first evidence showing that active mechanical stimuli can guide the outgrowth of NSCs transplanted into the spinal cord tissue. Our findings suggest that MNPs play an important role in neuronal maturation which could be applied in regenerative medicine. Copy rights belong to original authors.

It's back-to-school season! Big box stores have put out special school supplies displays, and the airwaves are full of commercials for backpacks, clothes and markers. It's a pretty familiar phenomenon, but it's also impossible to deny that a lot has changed about education over the past few years, from the upheaval of the COVID-19 pandemic to new laws that impact what can be taught in the classroom. What is this time of year — this year — like for Middle Tennessee's teachers? To learn more, we're joined by educators and MNPS officials.

Listening In (With Permission): Conversations About Today's Pressing Health Care Topics
Suzanne Delbanco calls CJ Stimson, MD, the Senior Vice President of Value Transformation at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC), to discuss Vanderbilt’s direct contract bundled payment arrangement for maternity care with Metro Nashville Public Schools (MNPS). This call serves as follow-up to the webinar hosted by CPR in March 2021, where Dr. Stimson and David Hines of MNPS shared their insights one year after the program’s implementation. Dr. Stimson received both medical and law degrees from Vanderbilt, and is currently an Assistant Professor at VUMC, as well as a practicing urologic surgeon. Here, he and Suzanne discuss why VUMC and MNPS decided to launch a direct contract program on maternity care, the scope and contents of the bundle, and how payers and providers have reacted to this innovative strategy. CJ also takes a guess at what may be ahead for direct contract bundled payments, and what it will take to get more organizations on board with a similar arrangement.

On this week's The Sci-Files, your hosts Chelsie and Danny interview Emma Dester and Saad Sharief. Emma is a dual-enrolled BS/MD student in the MSU Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering Department (BAE). She has been doing research in the Nano-Biosensors Laboratory for almost four years. Saad is a Ph.D. student, also in BAE, and is currently in his 4th year of the graduate program. His research interests lie in the synthesis and applications of nanomaterials, biosensors for pathogen detection, and anti-counterfeiting technologies to prevent drug trafficking.The Nano-Biosensors Laboratory focuses on developing cost-effective and rapid diagnostic methods that require less equipment and labor than traditional approaches. For the past year, both Emma and Saad have been working on nanoparticle-based methods to rapidly identify foodborne pathogens. In the United States alone, these pathogens are responsible for over 3,000 deaths each year. Traditional methods for detecting these common pathogens (Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, and Escherichia coli ) are a time-consuming process and require at least 24-48 hours. Their research focuses on the rapid identification of these organisms, reducing both the time and cost associated with these traditional methods. First, they use magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to extract bacteria from contaminated food. After extracting bacterial DNA, they use a simple colorimetric test to detect the presence of target bacteria. This test uses a gold nanoparticle-based assay and has the potential to produce results in under five minutes. Although research is still ongoing, current progress shows this new method to be a promising time-saving and life-saving technique for detecting pathogens in food.

Heather has worked for MNPS for 13 years, all at Glencliff Elementary where she also did her student teaching as an undergrad student at Vanderbilt.

Academies of Nashville: Through their academy, students are exposed to a multitude of career and college opportunities, industry skills, and potential employers by way of classroom speakers, site visits, job shadowing and internships. Families have their choice of more than 39 different academies within the 12 largest neighborhood high schools in MNPS. Whether it is a student, a teacher, or a business partner, there are thousands of stories of how the Academies of Nashville have impacted lives. During the 2006-2007 school year, the Academies of Nashville was only a dream—an ambitious, high school transformation effort that would bring together families, educators, and the community to improve our schools. Ten years later, that dream has come to fruition. Graduation rates have increased. Student attendance is at an all-time high. Discipline referrals have significantly dropped. Business engagement in the school system has never been stronger and more powerful. But, there is much more to this success than the statistics alone. It is the stories that touch our hearts. While this Storybook only captures a snapshot of the work and accomplishments of the past decade, it is a reflection of the lives that have been touched and changed because of the Academies of Nashville and Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools.

Hotline opened in Nashville in 1990 with the mission of helping Tennessee students in grades K-12 learn, understand and complete challenging assignments, and master new concepts through free one-on-one tutoring by phone and online chat. The founders wanted to ensure that students who needed help would be able to access our services at no cost and with no need for transportation. Homework Hotline just opened (February 18, 2019) a new Shelby County location for Homework Hotline with certified, current Shelby County teachers working it adding to our 24 other teachers who are from MNPS teachers or are retired. Nashville students and those in any Middle TN county can reach Homework Hotline by calling 615-298-6636. Shelby County also has its own local number 901-416-1234. Hotline is incredibly thankful for the financial support MNPS schools provide so that we can hire 7 MNPS teachers a night and the support Shelby County is providing for four certified Shelby County teachers per night to serve Shelby County Schools students and their families well. These partnerships allow students to receive promotional items and ensures that teachers in these counties can help supplement their income. Hotline is always seeking to add other counties to its partnering counties. Any interested county can contact us at 615-298-6636 or 901-416-1234 for details. Each year, Hotline completes approximately 10,000 sessions with over 5,000 students and their families, and this year, we should exceed our goal of 10,200. Homework Hotline with support of generous school systems, corporations, foundations, and individual donors provides FREE one-on-one tutoring to all TN students and parents. Hotline hires certified and retired teachers in Nashville and in Memphis to help students Monday-Thursday from 4pm-8pm throughout the school year. Teachers are available for all core subjects and can help even in upper level classes like AP History, AP English, AP Biology, etc. We also offer multilingual services in Spanish, Arabic, Farsi, Hindi, and Swahili. Hotline has added several other features to further help students and families including online chat, image share, online whiteboards, and essay sharing. Student callers can also receive prizes donated from local businesses and individuals. Upcoming events include last day of Hotline: May 8, our end of year trivia fundraiser: "Are You Smarter Than a 6th Grader," on May 9, Big Payback on May 2, and the first day of Hotline 2019-20 school year in early August.
