Podcasts about modelling

James, Tom and Sam sit down and discuss what would you do if you could model your holidays? where or what would you model?

Paul Booth is a performance nutritionist and exercise physiologist who works with elite ultra-endurance athletes and teams, including the Salomon International team, and was the nutritionist behind both the men's and women's UTMB winners in 2025, Tom Evans and Ruth Croft. We cover the science and practice of fuelling: how many carbs you actually need, why the high-carb trend has run ahead of the evidence, and how to get hydration and electrolytes right for triathlon and ultra-endurance racing. HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS: Why Paul calls himself a "90-gram carb guy" and where the carb ceiling actually sits What the science says about 90 versus 120 grams of carbohydrate per hour The physiology of carbohydrate absorption, and how to work out your own intake for an Ironman without lab testing Gut training: building tolerance to carbs and fluid in the weeks before a race A simple DIY method to work out your sweat rate and fluid needs Why hydration, not carbs, is behind most race-day gut problems Electrolytes: what the evidence supports and what is mostly marketing Fuelling through heat, altitude and ageing, plus listener questions on glycogen-depleted training, honey and more SHOWNOTES, LINKS, RESOURCES AND RELATED EPISODES: Follow Paul and Performance Gains Nutrition on his website and Instagram The shownotes for today's episode can be found here.

With a slightly more positive but cautious tone, the Bank of Canada announced Wednesday that interest rates would stay put, marking its sixth consecutive hold.   As part of the decision announcement, Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem outlined three key messages for the country's population. First, after a rough start to the year economic growth looks to have resumed. Secondly, that inflation is poised to ease and, lastly, that uncertainty remains high.   Two uncertain factors the central bank will be monitoring closely are the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) negotiations and how the war in Iran is impacting global oil prices.   "We've been looking through the direct effects of higher oil prices on inflation, but the longer they remain elevated, the bigger the risk they spill over to other goods and services," Macklem said.  To help break down what Canadians should make of the decision and expect in the coming months, Olivier Gervais, the Director of Modelling and Forecasting at Scotiabank joins the podcast.     For legal disclosures, please visit http://bit.ly/socialdisclaim and www.gbm.scotiabank.com/disclosures    Key moments this episode:  00:00:00 Introduction 00:01:46 Olivier's Bank of Canada Experience 00:03:02 Why the Bank Held Rates 00:05:13 Canadian Business Resilience 00:05:58 Iran Conflict and Oil Prices 00:07:11 CUSMA Renegotiation Outlook 00:08:15 What Employment Data Tells Us 00:09:29 Inflation and Grocery Prices 00:10:27 What Would Lower Inflation? 00:10:57 Canada's Housing Market 00:13:04 Mortgage Renewals 00:13:57 Rate Outlook for the Months Ahead 00:15:42 Looking Ahead to September 00:16:05 Key Takeaways for Canadians

For decades, catastrophe modelling has largely been about choosing the best view of risk. But what happens when no single model can capture the full picture?  In this episode, Matthew Grant speaks with Rob Newbold, President of Catastrophe and Risk Solutions at Verisk, about why the future of catastrophe modelling is becoming more open, collaborative and accessible.  Rob explains the thinking behind Verisk's new Model Exchange platform and why enabling insurers to access third-party models alongside Verisk's own is less about changing strategy and more about continuing a long-standing commitment to giving clients greater choice. The conversation explores how broader access to catastrophe and cyber models could help organisations build a more complete understanding of risk while making advanced analytics available to a much wider audience.  They also discuss why the global protection gap remains stubbornly difficult to close, why parametric insurance has not yet delivered on many of its early promises and where new modelling capability is still urgently needed, from flood to wildfire.  Looking ahead, Rob shares his perspective on how agentic AI could fundamentally change catastrophe modelling workflows, allowing insurers to automate scenario analysis, respond more quickly to emerging events and make sophisticated risk analytics available without requiring specialist modelling expertise.  In this episode you'll learn:  Why Verisk has opened its platform to third-party catastrophe and cyber models  How Model Exchange helps insurers build a more comprehensive view of global risk  Why collaboration between model providers could strengthen resilience across the industry  Where the biggest gaps remain in catastrophe modelling, including flood and emerging risks  Why the protection gap remains a persistent challenge despite better analytics  The reality of parametric insurance and why basis risk continues to limit wider adoption  How cloud platforms and SaaS delivery are making catastrophe models accessible beyond specialist insurance teams  What practical applications of agentic AI could look like for catastrophe modelling over the next 12 months  Why openness, transparency and competition may ultimately improve risk understanding across the market  Rob's recommendations:  Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell  Smart Brevity by Roy Schwartz, Mike Allen and Jim VandeHei  If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.  Sign up to the InsTech newsletter for a fresh view on the world every Wednesday morning.

Are you exhausted as a leader and stuck in a cycle of micromanagement? In this episode of The Coaching Hub, I explore why so many passionate, goal-oriented leaders slip into micromanagement, even when they know it leads to frustration, burnout, and disengagement. Drawing on personal experience and psychological research, I share how the need for control is often driven by a desire to ensure competence and “just get things done,” especially under pressure.Relying on micromanagement to close competence gaps backfires, crushing autonomy, trust, and engagement, and ultimately hurts performance. I'll share how to shift from control to a coaching mindset. Learn practical coaching strategies to empower your team: giving people space to make decisions, encouraging learning from mistakes, building psychological safety, and deeply listening with curiosity.Whether you're a business owner carrying all the responsibility, or any leader ready to break the control cycle, this episode will help you lead with less stress and far more impact.What's insideHow micromanagement comes from a desire for controlWhy taking a coaching approach helps solve micromanagementHow micromanagement often masks underlying skill or competence gapsExcessive control leads to a higher risk of burnout for leadersWhy leaders should outsource decisions where possible and focus only on choices that truly need their input.Modelling vulnerability and a willingness to learn from errors fosters a healthy, growth-oriented cultureSimple habits like allowing space between meetings and not answering emails instantly set the tone for autonomy.Key topics covered00:00 Intro: Stop Micromanaging, try coaching instead00:04 Micromanagement can be solved with coaching01:18 Business owners experience a unique layer of control and responsibility, increasing the temptation to micromanage01:54 Deci and Ryan's model: People need autonomy, relatedness, and competence to thrive02:31 Micromanagement decreases autonomy and engagement in teams 05:13 Chronic micromanagement raises stress hormones06:41 Modelling vulnerability encourages psychological safety and growth09:33 Inviting your team's input builds a more effective, empowered team.About Ruth Kudzi:Ruth is the founder of Optimus Coaching Academy and a well-respected and successful coach, speaker and author who has worked across sectors including leadership, career and more recently business and mindset.

The communications in question center on a modeling agent who maintained a long-running relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, during which he repeatedly attempted to introduce young women to him under the guise of modeling opportunities. The exchanges span years and show the agent pitching women based on their looks, age, and financial vulnerability, often framing the introductions as mutually beneficial arrangements. In one especially disturbing message, the agent explicitly encouraged Epstein to “try” a woman sexually, reducing the interaction to a transactional proposition. The tone of the correspondence suggests a level of familiarity with Epstein's preferences and a willingness to cater to them, even after Epstein's prior legal troubles were already public knowledge.Beyond the individual messages, the broader implication is the role that parts of the modeling world may have played in feeding Epstein access to young women. The emails reflect a system where aspiring models—many seeking financial stability or career opportunities—were positioned in proximity to a powerful and predatory figure. While the agent has since attempted to distance himself and downplay his intent, the language and persistence captured in the exchanges have fueled criticism that enablers within the industry either ignored warning signs or actively facilitated Epstein's behavior. The revelations add another layer to the ongoing examination of how Epstein's network operated and how he continued to maintain access to vulnerable women despite widespread rumors and prior convictions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Modelling agent told Epstein about girl 'desperate for cash' as he begged paedo to 'try her in bed', emails showBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A category of guest I really enjoy speaking with though are those who are on the way up. People like Holly Ransom or Kal Klanznig or Vanessa Pirotta who are clearly going places - it's a thrill to spend a little bit of time with them before they accomplish even more. Today's guest doesn't have the public or social media profile of those three, but I hope that is to change in next little while. Timothy Neal is a senior scientia fellow in the Department of Economics at the University of New South Wales and also the Institute of Climate Risk and Response. Earlier this year he was named Australia's leading researcher in probability and statistics with applications and in 2021 was the recipient of the prestigious Paul Bourke Award for Early Career Research by the Academy of Social Sciences in Australia.What does that mean he's an expert in then for those less initiated with economics, statistics and social science - it means his work at the intersection of climate change, casual inference and econometrics is resulting in entirely new ways by which to understand how much we already have and will continue to lose as a result of a changing climate and our civilisation's collective commitment in dismissing and avoiding the reality of the losses, impacts, damages and harms that have arrived and are now locked in for decades to come.Tim's work has re-shaped how I think, talk about and worked on physical climate risk - and his work with UNSW colleagues Ben Newell - a former guest on episode 87 - and Andy Pitman - in 2025 dropped a grenade into conventional economic thinking and modelling regarding climate change. How can we know that human activity has fundamentally altered the chemical, biological and physical reality of our atmosphere and still see company after company, regulator after regulator, reserve bank after reserve bank tell us that their numbers are telling us there is nothing to see here? How can a company write that climate change represents a material financial risk to their business then claim their scenario analysis process presents a near-zero loss future due to climate change? It makes no sense. Tim's work has helped me understand why that is, what needs to change in economics to redress this and how all of us as lay people can better engage with the real but complex reality of attempting to understand what disaster after disaster means for economic performance nationally and across the globe.In this chat we get into Tim's recent work on economic losses already able to be quantified and mounting up just in NSW, his seminal work on global macroeconomic loss results as well as what his research into panic buying and hoarding at the onset of Covid may have in stall for us as we face a future certain to be more volatile, dangerous and disaster-prone.Some extra reading relevant to this episode from our friends at Altiorem. Making the case: Macroeconomic risk & portfolio impact: A tool for system-level investorsThe macroeconomic impact of climate change: Global vs. local temperatureDiscourses of climate delayCheck out Planet Protein and receive 10% off your first order when you sign up. Send me a messageThanks for listening.

While we can get pretty far with a very simple approximation of what a fire is in our fire cfd, at some point our simplications are not enough. And there is a plenty of features and phenomena, for which we simply need a better tool to handle -  carbon monoxide, soot, extinction, flashover behavior, and what happens when ventilation disappears. At the IAFSS symposium, we sit down with Professor Bart Merci (Ghent University), fresh off delivering the Howard Emmons Invited Plenary Lecture, to talk about what it really takes to model turbulent combustion in real fires without asking practitioners to become full-time combustion scientists.We start with the engineering reality check: you do not get unlimited mesh resolution, unlimited runtime, or the luxury of endless sensitivity studies. As Bart says - "you need to pick your battles". That practical constraint shapes everything, from whether LES is a smart choice to how you treat the “unseen” physics inside a CFD cell. Bart breaks down turbulence in plain terms, explains why the largest eddies dominate entrainment and smoke movement, and shows how mesh decisions can quietly decide whether LES outperforms unsteady RANS in practical smoke control and compartment fire problems.Then we go deep on sub-grid combustion models. We unpack why infinitely fast chemistry can be acceptable in well-ventilated flames yet collapses in under-ventilated conditions, where toxicity, soot, and extinction dominate the risk picture. Bart explains a finite-rate, autoignition-informed approach that uses detailed chemistry offline to tune simplified reactions, then applies flamelet concepts and turbulence measures to predict reaction rates and species production inside each cell, including ignition and extinction behavior without relying on a guessed “critical flame temperature.”We close with what's next: validation in compartments, microgravity as a brutal test of “universality,” and why advanced non-intrusive diagnostics could finally improve near-wall heat transfer and flame-surface interaction. If you care about CFD, FDS modeling limits, fire dynamics, and the future of practical fire safety engineering, you'll want this one. If you would like to read more on the topic, here is Bart's paper that accompanied his brilliant lecture. Figure 3 is what we discuss at the end of the episode.----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.

My guest this week is Camille Bidault-Waddington, one of the most original and influential stylists working today. Born in Normandy, Camille has been part of so many pivotal fashion moments - she modelled for Martin Margiela in the 90s, spent 14 years styling Marc by Marc Jacobs in the early 2000s, and worked for The Face, Dazed and Self Service magazines at their inception.In this conversation, Camille selects 5 items of clothing that chart her creative process, her love of ‘weird', and how coming out as a lesbian has influenced her style. These include a rare Margiela army sock jumper, a vintage Chanel couture suit, and a pair of mythical AW10 Balenciaga shoes, created during Nicolas Ghesquière's tenure at the house.If you enjoy the episode, then don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter on Substack, and follow Threads of Conversation on Instagram and TikTok.

What if you could think like the world's toughest human?Not admire it from a distance. Not read about it. Actually run the same internal patterns — the beliefs, the strategies, the way he processes doubt, discomfort, and the voice that says stop.That's what this episode is.One of the foundational ideas in NLP is that anything any human being can do can be elicited, modelled, and replicated. If you can identify how someone thinks at their best — the structure beneath the performance — you can hand that as a shortcut to anyone willing to step into it.Success leaves clues. Hypnosis is how we install them.In this first Modelling Excellence Monday session, Adam takes seven core principles from the philosophy of David Goggins — retired Navy SEAL, ultramarathon world record holder, and one of the most followed voices on mental toughness on the planet — and builds a deep hypnosis session around them so you can begin running those same patterns from the inside out.The Seven Principles Modelled in This Session:The 40% Rule — When your mind says stop, you're only 40% of the way thereThe Accountability Mirror — Brutal honesty with yourself, no excuses, no storiesCallous the Mind — Discomfort is not the enemy, it is the training groundThe Cookie Jar — Pull strength from everything you've already survivedTake Souls — Use doubt and disbelief as fuelBuild the Savage — Motivation is unreliable; discipline is the system that runs when it isn'tNever Finished — The quest for greatness is unendingHow to Use This EpisodeFind somewhere quiet, put your headphones in, and give yourself 45 minutes where you won't be disturbed. Lying down is fine. Eyes closed. Just follow Adam's voice.You don't need to believe it will work. You just need to show up.Who Should Adam Model Next?Modelling Excellence Monday is built on one idea: anyone in the world who achieves something extraordinary is running a set of internal patterns that can be identified, extracted, and handed to you.Who inspires you? Who do you watch and think — I don't just want to admire that, I want to understand how they think?Nominate your person — an athlete, entrepreneur, scientist, philosopher, artist, anyone — and Adam may build a future hypnosis session around them and their area of excellence.

The same dataset can look dramatically different depending on how it is visualised. Most charts are produced with good intent, but not all of them tell the full story, and some are designed not to. Knowing how to spot the difference could change how you read every market report you pick up. In this episode of Commercially Minded, Will Matthews, Knight Frank's Head of Commercial Insight, is joined by Seb Jones, Senior Analyst in Knight Frank's Modelling and Intelligence team, to examine how data visualisation shapes the conclusions that property professionals reach. They explore everything from innocent design failures that accidentally misdirect, to techniques that can steer readers towards conclusions the data does not support. If you want to know how to spot the signs that a chart is misleading you, and what questions to ask before you form a view, this is the episode to listen to.For more insights like this, subscribe to ⁠⁠Will's newsletter⁠⁠ for his weekly take on commercial real estate markets.Produced by ⁠⁠Rethink Audio⁠⁠.

Il fermo nazionale dell autotrasporto previsto dal 25 al 29 maggio è stato sospeso dopo l'incontro di venerdi 22 Maggio a Palazzo Chigi fra Governo e associazioni di categoria. La protesta era nata per l'aumento dei costi del carburante, con il gasolio passato in meno di due mesi da 1,70 a oltre 2,10 euro al litro, e per gli effetti considerati insufficienti del taglio generalizzato delle accise. Dal confronto con l'esecutivo è arrivato un pacchetto da circa 300 milioni di euro sotto forma di credito d imposta per compensare parte dei rincari sostenuti dalle imprese nei mesi di marzo, aprile e maggio rispetto ai prezzi medi di febbraio: non uno sconto diretto alla pompa, ma un ristoro fiscale per alleggerire l impatto del caro diesel sui bilanci delle aziende. Ne abbiamo parlato con Claudio Donati, segretario generale di Assotir. Semiconduttori: da inizio anno rally del 72%. Ma BOFA dice non è BollaLa domanda esplosa dei data center e degli hyperscaler globali ha fatto impennare i prezzi delle DRAM e consolidato il potere contrattuale dei produttori, oggi sostenuti da accordi pluriennali con i grandi operatori tecnologici. E se la domanda cresce, l'offerta si adegua. Nel suo ultimo State of Union sull'industria dei semiconduttori, Bank of America ha rivisto al rialzo in modo significativo le proprie previsioni relative alle dimensioni del mercato globale dei semiconduttori. La banca prevede che il mercato potenziale complessivo dei semiconduttori raggiungerà circa mille e trecento miliardi di dollari entro il 2026 (rispetto alla precedente previsione di mille miliardi di dollari), per arrivare a circa 2mila miliardi di dollari entro il 2030. Il rapporto sottolinea che l'intelligenza artificiale (IA) e i data center (compresi i sistemi di elaborazione, le reti e lo storage) saranno i principali motori di crescita, mentre il settore industriale (rifornimento delle scorte e robotica) fungerà da motore secondario. E a proposito del rischio "bolla" nel suo report BOFA scrive: "L'intelligenza artificiale ha ancora forza strutturale. Il peso dei semiconduttori negli indici di borsa è di circa il 18% nell S&P500 ed è vero che aumenta la sensibilità macroeconomica del mercato. Ma il movimento è guidato dagli utili, il rapporto prezzo/utili da qui ai prossimi 12mesi è di 1:25, sostanzialmente inalterato da inizio anno ed è ancora sotto i precedenti picchi. Ci sono poche evidenze di un'inflazione speculativa dei multipli, elemento che supporta la secolarità del really nel contesto della crescita strutturale A.I."Il commento di Filippo Diodovich Senior analyst di IG Sanchez a Roma. Italia e Spagna a confronto: a cosa si deve il miracolo di MadridLe tensioni geopolitiche in corso, dalla guerra in Ucraina ai dazi imposti dagli Stati Uniti e ora lo shock energetico determinato dall attacco israelo-americano all Iran, stanno avendo come del resto in tutti i paesi europei conseguenze pesanti sull economia italiana. Lo attestano le stime della Commissione europea che collocano la crescita per l Italia allo 0,5% quest anno e allo 0,6% il prossimo, con rischi evidenti di ulteriori revisioni al ribasso. Ma se si scorrono dati e tabelle del Rapporto annuale dell Istat, se ne trae la conclusione che il problema della bassa crescita nel nostro Paese è di lunga durata, come emerge dal confronto con le principali economie europee, e soprattutto con quella spagnola. Da tempo si parla di miracolo spagnolo per le indubbie performance messe a segno da Madrid. È effettivamente tale? L Istat rileva in particolare che tra il 2022 e il 2025 la crescita del Pil ha raggiunto il 9% in Spagna, a fronte del 2,3% in Italia. Un risultato che riflette «una maggiore capacità dell economia spagnola di generare una crescita più sostenuta della domanda interna e dell attività produttiva, anche attraverso incrementi della produttività e un maggiore orientamento verso settori a tecnologia più avanzata, specialmente nei servizi». Vi è senza dubbio dietro queste cifre l effetto della regolarizzazione degli immigrati irregolari. Del resto la principale fonte di immigrati in Spagna è l America latina, dove si parla lo spagnolo. Poi si registra il traino dei servizi e del Pnrr. Nel periodo 2022-2025 in Spagna si è registrata una crescita da consumi ed esportazioni pari rispettivamente a 6,8 e 3,6 punti percentuali, rispetto al 2,2 e 0,2% messo a segno in Italia nello stesso periodo. In sostanza in Spagna si evidenzia un maggiore dinamismo dei consumi delle famiglie che secondo l Istat è riconducibile sia a fattori demografici sia a una crescita sostenuta dei redditi reali. Ma ancora una volta su questa fondamentale componente demografica un effetto predominante lo si deve all aumento della popolazione spagnola tra i 15 e i 64 anni (+4,6% tra il 2022 e il 2025), superiore a quello italiano (+1,6%, grazie alla forte espansione della componente degli stranieri regolari (+22,3% contro il +4,6% in Italia). Chiediamo chiarimenti al collega Dino Pesole che ne ha scritto nei giorni scorsi.E' stato ospite a Focus Economia Dino Pesole, editorialista del Sole 24 Ore Ey-Oxford Economics, in Italia Pil a +0,4% nel 2026, pesano shock energeticiLa guerra in Medio Oriente e i conseguenti shock energetici hanno innescato un forte rallentamento della crescita a livello globale, pur senza configurare al momento una recessione mondiale. È quanto emerge dal rapporto presentato durante l'evento 'Scenari macroeconomici e intelligenza artificiale: implicazioni, sfide e opportunità', organizzato da Oxford Economics in collaborazione con Ey, in cui viene stimata una crescita del Pil italiano dello 0,4% nel 2026 (UN O,1% IN MENO RISPETTO ALLA STIMA DELL'FMI DI OGGI), "in un contesto - si legge in una nota - di elevata incertezza e domanda interna poco dinamica". Secondo l'analisi, nel 2027 si osserverà una lieve accelerazione della crescita del Pil (+0,6%), riconducibile a un andamento dei consumi privati e della domanda estera positivi, a fronte di una leggera contrazione degli investimenti, quest'ultima dovuta alla fine di importanti incentivi fiscali, all'esaurimento del Pnrr e a un contesto di maggiore incertezza. Per l'Eurozona, il rapporto stima una crescita dello 0,7% nel 2026, con un'inflazione media intorno al 3%, quasi il doppio rispetto alle previsioni precedenti, con un picco intorno al 3,5% nel secondo e terzo trimestre.L'analisi di Ey e Oxford Economics si è concentrata su quattro settori produttivi rilevanti per l'economia italiana, ovvero alimentare, tessile, automotive e il comparto dei macchinari, stimando una crescita moderata della produzione tra il 2025 e il 2027. Il settore alimentare dovrebbe registrare una crescita stabile e moderata nel medio periodo (+1,8% nel 2026 e nel 2027), sostenuta prevalentemente dall'export, a fronte di consumi interni deboli e dei rischi legati all'aumento dei costi per l'agricoltura. Il settore del tessile e dell'abbigliamento crescerà in misura contenuta nel biennio 2026- 2027 (rispettivamente +1,2% e +1,3%), trainato quasi esclusivamente dall'export, mentre la domanda interna sarà stagnante e peseranno le pressioni dei competitor internazionali, in particolare asiatici. Per quanto riguarda il comparto dei macchinari, l'analisi sostiene che attraverserà una fase di normalizzazione dopo il ciclo espansivo legato agli incentivi, tornando a una crescita stabile (+1,7% nel 2026 e +1,8% nel 2027), sostenuta dall'export e da una graduale ripresa della domanda interna. Il settore crescerà debolmente (+0,9% nel 2026 e +0,5% nel 2027), con export di segno positivo ma investimenti in contrazione. La transizione verso l'elettrico resta un elemento critico, con il rischio di ridimensionare la produzione domestica. Il settore automotive crescerà debolmente (+0,9% nel 2026 e +0,5% nel 2027), con export di segno positivo ma investimenti in contrazione; la transizione verso l elettrico resta un elemento critico, con il rischio di ridimensionare la produzione domestica.Mario Rocco, Valuation, Modelling and Economics Leader di EY in Italia, ai microfoni di Vincenzo Miglietta.

The team chats about the tactics ahead of tonight's game, before speaking to Fremantle Assistant Coach Jade Rawlings, then K-Mac has a double dose of the Queen's Queries. Isaac has plenty of room in both his Penthouse and Outhouse this week, then the team chats about Scott Pendlebury's upcoming AFL Games Record, and Isaac cops some harsh feedback for his list of the Best Midfielders of the 21st Century. Hawthorn Assistant Coach David Hale joins the team from Perth, as does West Coast Norm Smith Medallist Andrew Embley to take us behind the scenes of the Eagles 2006 Premiership reunion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are joined by Ian Pritchett of Greencore Homes to talk about his science-based approach to green building and the work that has led him from developing green building materials becoming the co-founder of a vertically-integrated developer and house builder.There's a lot of history and legacy to cover because Ian has been in the green building game for decades and it's this that has informed the approach being taken right now.Greencore is also challenging the Passive House Institute about the accuracy of its PHPP (passive house planning package) modelling software because their homes outperform the model's predictions because of their use of phase-change materials.Be warned, this is nerd business—Jeff gets to interrogate the build up specification—but it doesn't get too technical to be able to follow the thread.Notes from the showThe Greencore Homes website Ian Pritchett on LinkedIn A PH+ article about Neil May**SOME SELF-PROMOTING CALLS TO ACTION**We don't actually earn anything from this podcast, and it's quite a lot of work, so we have to promote the day jobs.Follow us on the Zero Ambitions LinkedIn page (we still don't have a proper website)Jeff and Dan about Zero Ambitions Partners (the consultancy) for help with positioning and communications strategy, customer/user research and engagement strategy, carbon calculations and EPDs – we're up to all sortsSubscribe and advertise with Passive House Plus (UK edition here too)Check Lloyd Alter's Substack: Carbon UpfrontJoin ACANJoin the AECB Join the IGBCCheck out Her Retrofit Space, the renovation and retrofit platform for women**END OF SELF-PROMOTING CALLS TO ACTION**   

This episode features Dr Peter May (Cicely Saunders Institute of Palliative Care, Policy & Rehabilitation, King's College London, UK School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland).   What is already known on this topic? Specialist palliative care increases odds of dying outside hospital and improves patient quality of life, but this is a complex intervention and not all who might benefit receive specialist care. Cost-effectiveness of specialist palliative care, and the economic implications of reduced hospital deaths, is a persistent question for research and policy. Prior systematic reviews identify a lack of modelling studies as a fundamental evidence gap.   What this paper adds We used decision modelling, a widely-used method in health economics that has not been routinely applied in evaluating palliative care. The key strength of this approach is the capacity to combine data from different sources to estimate cost-effectiveness when there is insufficient trial data to answer the question. We found that both hospital-based specialist palliative care and home-based specialist palliative care for adults in England represent excellent value care, reducing the average cost per patient to the NHS while improving patient outcomes.   Implications for practice, theory or policy Specialist palliative care is currently accessed by less than half of people who might benefit in England. Expanding access would likely yield further cost-savings and improve outcomes for patients and families. However, mitigating current inequities in access and outcomes also requires new approaches to identifying, engaging and meeting the needs of underserved groups. Other countries interested in applying these methods to their own data and services can consider using our methodological templates, which we have published open access.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163261423755   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

This one's something special.We're bringing together three voices from across the world for a live roundtable discussion focused on the power of scale modelling to make a real difference:

In this episode of Enterprise Sessions from the University of Bristol, Professor Michele Barbour speaks with Professor Paul Bates, world‑leading expert in flood inundation modelling and co‑founder of Fathom, one of the University's most successful research‑driven companies.Paul reflects on a remarkable career that began with a Bristol PhD in the late 1980s and evolved into pioneering work that transformed global flood modelling. He describes the technological shift that enabled a new generation of high‑resolution terrain data, the academic debates that reshaped the field, and the multidisciplinary collaborations that built the foundation for Fathom's modelling techniques.The conversation traces Fathom's origins from two ambitious PhD students with an idea, through early years of bootstrapping, to international clients including insurers, banks, multinationals, and the World Bank. Paul also discusses the challenges of spinning out before universities had mature commercialisation systems, the importance of staying ahead of competitors through transparency and innovation, and the recent acquisition of Fathom by Swiss Re.Finally, Paul reflects on what research entrepreneurship means within academia, how Fathom has strengthened Bristol's scientific capabilities, and what lies ahead for both him and the next generation of global flood models.

In this second deep dive episode, Cherry Lim discusses how complex modelling approaches can translate into practical clinical insights. From counterfactual frameworks to real-world prescribing decisions, she explores how data-driven tools can support clinicians in choosing more effective antibiotic treatments.  Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 01:03 – Understanding counterfactual frameworks 02:56 – Antibiotic choice and survival 05:08 – Clinical decision dashboards 06:24 – Assumptions in AMR modelling

In the final deep dive, Cherry Lim looks ahead to the future of AMR surveillance. She discusses the role of microbiology labs, the value of imperfect datasets, and how integrating genomics, modelling, and cost-effectiveness could transform global health systems over the next two decades. Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 01:03 – Investing in diagnostics 02:36 – Routine surveillance data 03:53 – Global versus local AMR data 05:08 – Future health systems

Cherry Lim joins the EMJ Podcast for a rapid-fire discussion on data, modelling, and antimicrobial resistance. From surveillance gaps to the role of AI, she shares insights into how data is shaping the future of AMR research and policy.

Dr. Manish Patel, co-founder and CEO of Jiva.ai and Chair of the AI Subcommittee at the BIA, where he advises the UK Government on AI policy, data privacy and healthcare applications. With a PhD in Modelling of Complex Systems from UCL and nearly a decade building algorithmic trading systems in investment banking, Manish brings a rare depth of perspective to the most overhyped term in healthcare right now.In this episode, we cut through the noise on AI. Manish challenges the very language we use, explaining why most of what gets called "AI" is really machine learning, why large language models are fundamentally not intelligent and why that distinction has very real consequences when lives are on the line. We look at where AI genuinely adds value in healthcare, from radiology to NHS administrative workflows, and where it is being dangerously overhyped, including some very pointed thoughts on using consumer-grade LLMs to make clinical diagnoses.We also explore how clinicians should think about AI as an augmenter rather than a replacement, why the productivity gains are real and where Manish believes the biggest untapped opportunity in healthcare actually sits. He closes with a frank take on what impressive AI looks like in a real clinical environment versus a polished demo and why the world is heading toward a very small group of people who truly understand what is happening under the hood.Thanks for tuning in to Episode 99.

The communications in question center on a modeling agent who maintained a long-running relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, during which he repeatedly attempted to introduce young women to him under the guise of modeling opportunities. The exchanges span years and show the agent pitching women based on their looks, age, and financial vulnerability, often framing the introductions as mutually beneficial arrangements. In one especially disturbing message, the agent explicitly encouraged Epstein to “try” a woman sexually, reducing the interaction to a transactional proposition. The tone of the correspondence suggests a level of familiarity with Epstein's preferences and a willingness to cater to them, even after Epstein's prior legal troubles were already public knowledge.Beyond the individual messages, the broader implication is the role that parts of the modeling world may have played in feeding Epstein access to young women. The emails reflect a system where aspiring models—many seeking financial stability or career opportunities—were positioned in proximity to a powerful and predatory figure. While the agent has since attempted to distance himself and downplay his intent, the language and persistence captured in the exchanges have fueled criticism that enablers within the industry either ignored warning signs or actively facilitated Epstein's behavior. The revelations add another layer to the ongoing examination of how Epstein's network operated and how he continued to maintain access to vulnerable women despite widespread rumors and prior convictions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Modelling agent told Epstein about girl 'desperate for cash' as he begged paedo to 'try her in bed', emails show
