Podcasts about molecular cell biology

When Russia invaded Ukraine, civilian lives, as well as lives of the scientists who live in the country, were upended. When an international grant was launched to support Ukrainian scientists, Andrzej Wierzbicki, a U-M professor of cellular, molecular and developmental biology, who is Polish, saw the funding opportunity as a way to help support the country that neighbors his own. Wierzbicki won a grant from the International Multilateral Partnerships for Resilient Education and Science System in Ukraine, or IMPRESS-U. Wierzbicki joins the Michigan Minds podcast to discuss how he is working with partners in Poland – Marcin Nowotny of the International Institute of Molecular Cell Biology in Warsaw – and Ukraine – Mykhailo Tukalo of the Institute of Molecular Biology and Genetics in Kyiv – to explore how DNA is organized within plant chloroplasts.

I got this question recently, and it's a great question... I'm all about taking collagen ever since you said it was important. But how much should I be taking?   You know the importance of collagen. Many of you take it religiously. But how much is optimal? I've got a number for you now.   My recommendation USED to be any amount! However, now based on current research and personal and client experience, here's my updated recommendations up front. Below I have more detail about why this is important and how I came to these numbers.   Ideal Collagen Per Day 20 grams of collagen for every 100 pounds of ideal bodyweight. OR, for an equation you can move the decimal point in your weight 2 spots to the left or multiply by .01: (body weight) x (.01) x 20g = grams of collagen per day: At 150lbs body weight = 20 g x 1.5 = 30g of collagen. At 175lbs body weight = 20 g x 1.75 = 35g of collagen. At 200lbs body weight = 20 g x 2.0 = 40g of collagen. and so on. And honestly, I would say the more the better.   This is the amount that is IDEAL. And yet, with this specific supplement, MORE IS ACTUALLY BETTER. So in some ways think of this as a MINIMUM.   BTW, when I say 20 grams I literally mean grams of protein when looking on the nutrition label:    In this example (​which is the multi collagen I take​), to get my 40g of collagen, I'd need to take about 4 scoops      In this example (​Biotics collagen​), the scoop is way bigger, so to get my 40g of collagen, I only need 2 scoops.      In this example (​Vital Proteins collagen​), the scoop is also way bigger, so to get my 40g of collagen, I only need 2 scoops.     What Are Best Types of Collagen? Collagen Types There are 29 types of collagen that have been identified, but most supplements will contain 1 or more of the following: Type 1 — Collagen found in skin/hide, tendon, scales and bones of cows, pigs, chicken and fish Type 2 — Formed in cartilage and typically derived from poultry Type 3 — Fibrous protein found in bone, tendon, cartilage and connective tissues of cows, pigs, chicken and fish Types 1, 2 and 3 comprise 90% of the collagen found in your body. So look for a "multi" collagen that has AT LEAST these 3. More types are even better.   Hydrolyzed May Be Best Also, the "hydrolyzed" version may be the best way to go. Hydrolyzation refers to a processing technique that breaks the molecules down into smaller fragments, thereby enhancing intestinal absorption. It's pre-broken down and mixes easier in liquids, vs the gelatin which has to be mixed in a hot liquid. I recommend going with a hydrolyzed collagen for supplementation, and then gelatin for cooking.   Which Collagen to Buy  ​I love the hydrolyzed one I sell through Biotics which has types 1, 2, and 3.​ These are flavored (chocolate or vanilla) and are great for coffee and desserts. ​ This is a good unflavored hydrolyzed one off of Amazon.​ It contains types 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10. Or any hydrolyzed collagen with at least types 1, 2, and 3.   Here's HOW I do it: 10g of collagen for every cup of coffee. Throughout a day I get 30 to 40g of collagen just from drinking coffee. 10g of collagen after a workout. Because tendons and ligaments are NOT soft tissue like muscle, it takes much more effort and much more time to work collagen into joints, ligaments, tendons and cartilage. BUT if you have good blood flow to your joints and tendons (like after a workout), the collagen will make it's way into those areas easier. 1 scoop of collagen whenever I think about it!   Here's Why Collagen is the most common and abundant protein in your body. It accounts for approximately 30% of the total protein in your body. One of its primary purposes is to provide structure to allow tissues to stretch and flex while maintaining tissue integrity. Because collagen is 1/3 of your body's protein, this is how I came to the number of 20g to 30g per 100 lbs of ideal bodyweight. Collagen is found in every part of your body, but especially your skin, connective tissues like tendons, ligaments, and cartilage, your bones, organs, blood vessels (makes them elastic), hair and nails. Collagen helps with wrinkles. Since most of us are in the 2nd half of our lives (the best half!), collagen can be the game changer that makes a difference with our skin. Even tho personally I feel like I see more wrinkles in the mirror, I do get compliments on my skin all the time! Collagen is crucial for those of us that workout (which should be all of us ;) Since it's the main component of bones, ligaments, tendons, etc., supplementing with collagen regularly helps you recover from workouts better, helps with the adaptation that you're looking for, and helps prevention and recovery from injuries. Collagen has been proven to be healthful on other levels. It can improve sleep, reduce joint pain, improve gut health, glucose tolerance and blood pressure, reduce cardiovascular damage, lower your risk of osteoporosis, and lower inflammation and oxidative damage from all sources. Balance your meat with collagen. Our ancestors more than likely made use of every part of the animal, consuming everything that could be consumed, and finishing with simmering the bones to get every last bit of nutrition out of the carcass as possible. Our ancestors naturallly (and probably inadvertently) got a lot more collagen than we do in this modern world. The primary amino acids in collagen — glycine, proline and hydroxyproline — make up the matrix of connective tissue. Beef contains very little of these amino acids, so eating only muscle meat will not provide enough amino acids to allow you to build strong connective tissue and maintain bone strength. Supplementing with collagen is the key.   What do you think? Feel free to send me some feedback :)   Resources: ​Skin Pharmacology and Physiology 2014; 27: 47-55 (PDF)​ ​Journal of Medical Nutrition & Nutraceuticals 2015; 4(1): 47-53​ ​J Drugs Dermatol. 2019 Jan 1;18(1):9-16​ ​Bone 2010 Mar;46(3):827-3​ ​PLoS One 2014 Jun 13;9(6):e99920​ ​J Agric Food Chem. 2010 Jan 27;58(2):835-41​ ​J Pharmacol Sci 2012; 118: 145 – 148 (PDF)​ ​Curr Med Res Opin. 2008 May;24(5):1485-96​ ​Curr Med Res Opin. 2006 November; 22(11):2221-32​ ​Am J Physiol 1982 February;242(2):G85-8​ ​USA Today August 26, 2023​ ​J Med Food. 2016 Sep;19(9):836-43​ ​J Med Food. 2010 Apr;13(2):399-405​ ​J Med Food. 2010 Apr;13(2):399-405​ ​ABC15 August 21, 2023​ ​Molecular Cell Biology, 4th Edition, Section 22.3. 2000​ ​Amino Acids 2018 Jan;50(1):29-38​ ​Science April 7, 2022; 376(6589): 188-192​ ​National Natural Science Foundation of China, Chinese Scholars and Cooperators Achieved Progress in Bioprocessing-inspired Fabrication​ ​Phys.org April 8, 2022​ ​RayPeat.com Gelatin Stress and Longevity​ ​USA Today August 26, 2023​ ​ABC15 August 21, 2023​ ​Nutraingredients.com March 19, 2015​ ​Charlotte's Book, Collagen Supplements​ ​Amino-collagen.com, Types of Collagen​ ​Woundresearch.com, A Review of Collagen and Collagen-Based Wound Dressings​ ​Paleo Leap, Collagen Versus Gelatin​ ​Rodale's Organic Life May 19, 2017​ ​Consumer Wellness Center October 5, 2017​ ​Bonebroth.news October 5, 2017​ ​NIH.

Why iodine deficiency during pregnancy may have disastrous consequences Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology February 7, 2022 Higher mammals, such as humans, have markedly larger brains than other mammals. Scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden recently discovered a newmechanism governing brain stem cell proliferation. It serves to boost the production of neurons during development, thus causing the enlargement of the cerebral cortex – the part of the brain that enables us humans to speak, think and dream. The surprising discovery made by the Dresden-based researchers: two components in the stem cell environment – the extracellular matrix and thyroid hormones – work together with a protein molecule found on the stem cell surface, a so-called integrin. (NEXT) Broccoli and kale microgreens pack a nutritional punch that varies with growing conditions American Chemical Society, February 16, 2022 Although microgreens were initially gourmet ingredients for upscale restaurants, they've become popular among gardeners and home cooks. Despite their “superfood” label, the levels of healthful compounds, such as phytonutrients, in most varieties of microgreens are unknown. Researchers in ACS Food Science & Technology now report that kale and broccoli microgreens grown in either windowsills or under commercial growing conditions are rich in phytonutrients, though the levels of some compounds varied considerably between the two environments. As indoor gardening has taken off in recent years, the most commonly planted varieties of these small seedlings are from the Brassica family, which includes broccoli, kale, cabbage and mustard. The mature, fully-grown versions of these vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals, and environmental conditions can impact the plants' nutritional contents. (NEXT) Can EPA-rich supplements help brains work ‘less hard' and boost mental performance? Swinburne University (Australia) February 10, 2022 Omega-3 supplements rich in EPA may improve cognitive performance with a reduction in neural activity observed, indicating that the brain worked ‘less hard', report researchers from Australia. On the other hand, DHA-rich supplements were associated with an increase in functional activation and no improvement in cognitive performance, according to results published in Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental . Isabelle Bauer from Swinburne University and her co-authors said that this indicated that DHA-rich supplements are less effective than EPA-rich supplements for boosting neurocognitive functioning. (NEXT) Study ‘leaves little doubt' about Pycnogenol's benefits for menopause symptoms Keii Medical Center (Japan), February 13, 2022 Daily supplements of extracts from the bark of French Maritime Pine may help reduce the symptoms of the menopause like hot flashes and night sweats, says a new study. Twelve weeks of supplementation with Pycnogenol were associated with significant reductions in scores of menopause symptoms,  according to findings published in The Journal of Reproductive Medicine. The researchers recruited 170 perimenopausal women to participate in their randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group clinical trial. The women were randomly assigned to receive either daily Pycnogenol supplements (60 mg per day) or placebo for 12 weeks. Results showed that there were no statistically significant differences between the groups for estradiol, follicle stimulating hormone, insulin-like growth factor, IGF binding protein 3, and dehydroepiandrosterone, which meant there were no hormonal effects of Pycnogenol, said the researchers. (NEXT) Yale study links common chemicals to osteoarthritis Yale University School of Environmental Studies, February 14, 2022 A new study has linked exposure to two common perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) with osteoarthritis. PFCs are used in more than 200 industrial processes and consumer products including certain stain- and water-resistant fabrics, grease-proof paper food containers, personal care products, and other items. Because of their persistence, PFCs have become ubiquitous contaminants of humans and wildlife. The study, published in Environmental Health Perspectives, looked at the associations between perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), and osteoarthritis, in a study population representative of the United States. “We found that PFOA and PFOS exposures are associated with higher prevalence of osteoarthritis, particularly in women, a group that is disproportionately impacted by this chronic disease,” said Sarah Uhl, who authored the study. Women in the highest 25% of exposure to PFOA had about two times the odds of having osteoarthritis compared to those in the lowest 25% of exposure.

Antiwar's Daniel Larison wrote an article back in December eviscerating the ridiculous claim that a military base some six thousand nautical miles from the U.S. coastline could be reasonably framed as any kind of threat to the American people. But what really jumps out is the insane way the U.S. political/media class routinely talks about virtually every location on this planet as though it is a territory of the United States. The Wall Street Journal referring to the entire Atlantic Ocean as “America's backyard” and “waters the U.S. considers home turf” follows a recent controversy over the U.S. president proclaiming that “Everything south of the Mexican border is America's front yard.” This provoked many references to the so-called “Monroe Doctrine”, a nineteenth-century imperialist assertion that Latin America is off limits to any power apart from the United States, effectively declaring the entire Western Hemisphere the property of Washington, DC. It also follows another incident in which Press Secretary Jen Psaki remarked on the ongoing tensions around Ukraine that it is in America's interest to support “our eastern flank countries”, which might come as a surprise to those who were taught in school that America's eastern flank was not Eastern Europe but the eastern coastline of the United States. The casual way these people say such things reflects a collectively held worldview that you won't find on any official document or in any schoolchild's textbook, but which is nonetheless a firmly held perspective among all the drivers of the modern empire: that the entire world is the property of the U.S. government. That the U.S. is not just the most powerful government in the world but also its rightful ruler, in the same way Rome ruled the Christian world. It's not something they can come out and directly say, because admitting they see themselves as the rulers of the world would make them look tyrannical and megalomaniacal. But it's certainly something they believe. They're about as obvious about it as could be. They make almost no effort to conceal it. And yet you'll still get empire apologists like Michael McFaul saying nonsense like this: McFaul knows very well that the U.S. is an imperial power and that it demands a very large “sphere of influence”. Would you like to see a picture of America's sphere of influence? Here you go: To live in the western world is to be constantly inundated with made-up stories about tyrants who want to terrorize the world while living under a globe-spanning power structure that is actually terrorizing the world. It's just so bizarre watching these imperial spinmeisters try to frame nations like China and Russia as freakish and backwards while working to literally rule the world like a comic book super villain. The U.S.-centralized empire is quantifiably the single most destructive and evil power structure in today's world. We shouldn't want anyone to rule over the entire planet with an iron fist, but these monsters are the very least qualified among us to do so.

Dr. Maximina Yun, Ph.D. (https://tu-dresden.de/cmcb/crtd/forschungsgruppen/crtd-forschungsgruppen/yun/group-leader) is Research Group Leader at the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD), Technical University Dresden, jointly affiliated with Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG). Dr. Yun and her group (https://tu-dresden.de/cmcb/crtd/forschungsgruppen/crtd-forschungsgruppen/yun) study the cellular and molecular basis of regeneration of complex structures with the help of salamanders (like newts and axolotls) and these vertebrates exceptional regenerative abilities, which in contrast to humans, are capable of regenerating complex tissues, and even entire organs, to a remarkable extent. Therefore, they offer unique insights into what molecular mechanisms must be in place for achieving quasi-perfect regeneration. Research in the Yun group focuses on three main areas: describing cellular and molecular mechanisms driving regeneration (Mechanisms underlying the plasticity of the differentiated state), their connection with cellular aging (Role and regulation of senescence in regeneration), and the role that the immune system plays in regenerative context. The research in the Yun group combines advanced molecular biology methods with state-of-the-art microscopy. Most recently the group has established Salamander-Eci, a novel method that enables the three-dimensional visualization of salamander tissues for a more comprehensive understanding of regenerative processes. Dr. Yun received her Ph.D. in Biological Sciences from MRC-Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Cambridge / Cambridge University, UK, and did her Postdoctoral Research at the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology, University College London, UK; Dr. Yun also has a BSc in Biological Sciences from University of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

When things happen in my life like this I always wonder if God is trying to send me a message. Either way we talked more about hydrogen than brown's gas in this particular show but it was still loads of fun. Tyler likes to get really into the science so we really broke down what happens in the body when a person drinks or inhales molecular hydrogen. We also discussed deuterium, tritium and other isotopes and how they impact the mitochondria. The whole ideas is to not just create more ATP with the mitochondria we have, but also how can we actually create more mitochondria and get those new mitochondria operating properly and create energy in the cell. So lots to discuss here. How can we keep more mitochondria, how can we improve the electron transport chain to be able to create 4th stage water, better utilize oxygen and also create more ATP? If we can answer those questions and solve those problems, my believe is that we can extend lifespan by many many decades. The name of the game when it comes to health is ATP production and having healthy mitochondrial energy to deal with oxygen. When we do that, we live longer, healthier disease free lives. Tyler LeBaron talks about how hydrogen can impact mitochondrial health! I hope you enjoy! Please share with your friends will you? :) On Last Thing!

What governs the shape of organs and tissues in the human body and beyond. Research is being carried out to determine coordinating factors within the body. Press play to learn: The events that have the most significant impact on shaping an organism.  How cell division is oriented in a particular direction. The role mathematic models play in predicting shapes that form within an organism Group leader at MRC Laboratory of Molecular Cell Biology at University College London, Yanlan Mao, shares their research into the formation and growth orientation of organisms.  Cell proliferation determines how organisms grow and divide, and the rate of proliferation can lead to the formation of specific shapes or disorders as development continues. If cells have traits that can orient the direction of the division, shapes can morph from spherical to oblong, and finally into recognizable figures. Fruit flies are invaluable resources in discovering genetic predispositions in cell growth, showing predictable growth for research purposes, and modifiable traits to test independently. By slightly changing characteristics in specific tissue cells, tension can be altered, and regrowth traits in cells can be sped up.

Thomas Chittenden, chief data science officer at Genuity Science, says what's keeping the genomics revolution from turning into an equivalent revolution in drug discovery is that most of our domain knowledge about the molecular biology of disease has come from a hunt-and-peck approach, focused on one gene at a time. Find some gene relevant to a disease, knock it out, and you see what happens. Such experiments are always revealing, but the reality is that human biology is the product of the interactions of huge networks of thousands of genes—which means most diseases are the product of dysregulation across these networks. Which means, in turn, that to figure out where to intervene with a drug, you really need to identify the patterns that cascade through the whole network. That’s where AI and machine learning come in, and that’s why Genuity has tasked Chittenden to lead R&D at its Advanced Artificial Intelligence Research Laboratory. Chittenden's team is pioneering new applications of old ideas from the world of probability and statistics, including some that go all the way back to the work of the English statistician Thomas Bayes in the eighteenth century, to look at gene expression data from individual cells and predict which genes are at the beginning of the cascade and are the causal drivers of diseases like atherosclerosis or high blood pressure. The hope is that Genuity can help its clients in the drug discovery business make smarter bets about which drug candidates will be most effective. And that could help shave years of development and billions of dollars in costs off the drug development process.Chittenden is one of those rare professionals who has more degrees than you can shake a stick at—he has a PhD in Molecular Cell Biology and Biotechnology from Virginia Tech and a DPhil in Computational Statistics from the University of Oxford, and completed postdoctoral training at Dartmouth Medical School, the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and the Harvard School of Public Health—but can also explain the actual science in a way that makes sense for a non-expert. On top of that he’s been thinking hard about how to rein in some of the hype around the power of AI and machine learning in drug development and how to set expectations about what computing can and can’t do for the industry.Please rate and review MoneyBall Medicine on Apple Podcasts!

Nicole Swann’s research focuses on how different parts of the human brain interact to generate and control movements and how these processes can be disrupted in disease. She is particularly interested in movement disorders like Parkinson’s disease. To investigate these questions Dr. Swann uses a combination of non-invasive and invasive electrophysiological methods in humans to record brain activity in both patients and healthy people. One goal of her research is characterize neural signatures of disease to better understand pathophysiology and improve treatments.Dr. Swann graduated from UC Berkeley with a double major in Molecular Cell Biology (neurobiology emphasis) and Psychology. She then went on to complete her PhD in Neurosciences at UC San Diego before completing a postdoc at UC San Francisco. She joined the Human Physiology department of UO in 2017.https://physiology.uoregon.edu/profile/nswann/

By the age of 30, she had founded three biotech and digital health companies. Dr. Zadran also teaches a course on Artificial Intelligence and Neural Networks at Stanford University and serves as an advisor to several biotech, digital health companies and several Silicon Valley accelerators. She has worked for leading Venture Capital firms, including Pacific Capital Hong Kong, BCG Digital Ventures, Khosla Ventures and Strawberry Creek Ventures.

Guests: Sam Sicilia, Hostplus; Martin Thompson, Frontier Advisors. The ASX200 has collapsed by more than 20% in just three weeks since COVID-19 went global. When markets fall so far and fast, it induces a state of panic for many investors. In this episode of The Rules of Investing, I sit down with two very special guests to get their take on the current situation, and to hear what we could lay ahead. The first is Sam Sicilia, Chief Investment Officer of Hostplus. With more than $50 billion of funds under management and one million members, Hostplus is one of Australia's largest superannuation funds. Under Sam's guidance, Hostplus has become the top performing super fund in Australia over 10 years, according to Superguide. Also joining us is Marty Thompson, Senior Consultant at Frontier Advisors. After studying science in his undergraduate degree, Marty undertook PhDs in Molecular Cell Biology and cancer research. He's also worked as a research scientist and teacher in virology at Murdoch University. Since starting his Masters of Applied Finance, Marty has worked as a Commercialisation Analyst at Melbourne University, and an Investment Analyst at Starfish Ventures, a leading venture capital firm focused on biotech startups. In the first part of the episode, we discuss the disease itself, including what we know and don't know, and how the spread of the disease could play out from here. We then turn to discussing the effects that the disease and associated disruptions could have on the real economy. Finally, we discuss the effects on financial markets and individual investors.

TITLE A Listener Asks, “How Do I Manage Overarousal During an Interview—Because I Can’t Demonstrate What I Know?” GUEST KJ McDaniels EPISODE OVERVIEW We talk about assessing skills and using visualization to internalize our competence; how to articulate our need for time to respond to questions during an interview.  How to talk about our strengths when asked about challenges we experience.  We also talk about how to communicate what our learning process can look like, and to emphasize the strengths we bring. How to create routines and landing spaces in order to keep track of glasses, keys, wallets, etc., and ways to remember appointments.  HIGHLIGHTS KJ had an upcoming interview and had some concerns KJ was told she needed to respond more in-depth Having a high arousal state causes KJ to go into fight or flight We talk about needing some tools to be able to stay in the pre-frontal cortex KJ had pages on how to navigate the interview, but still was put on the waitlist KJ wonders if she may have ADHD as well When KJ is under pressure doing her job, she is able to manage her job KJ is able to anticipate possible outcomes and is competent in her job KJ believes that she struggles with communication due to how she was raised We assess if KJ is able to answer the questions when she’s not overaroused When we haven’t experienced being seen and heard in the past, those can be small traumas that can impact current performance The goal is to create safety in new environments We want to create a way to feel safe in new environments It might be our “task manager” We still need to honor our feelings and all of the parts of us The task master often doesn’t have the fear around performing and answering questions Using visualizations to affirm—I’ve got this; I’m safe; I’m capable We want to shift from our feeling brain into our emotional brain We want to find out where that little person wants to go (to a safe place; NOT in the adult interview) The Highly Sensitive Person can be great on teams, when conditions/systems aren’t set up to honor everyone HSPs are great listeners, and leaders, and we notice those people who aren’t engaging in groups/teams For an interview, we want to talk about the things that did work, and our strengths Empathy Leadership Problem-solving skills How to answer questions that have to do with challenges How to talk about our strengths from a challenge How to articulate our depth of processing as a strength How to use routine in order to help with challenges with working memory HSPs who think they have ADHD, may just be overaroused and overstimulated Create routines and a landing spaces for things like keys, glasses, wallet, and other things we need on a regular basis We don’t have to feel shame when we let others know what we need in order to perform well How to do a visualization at night to imagine ourselves feeling confident and competent to create a sense of calm How to use jewelry and clothes to use for subtle self-soothing Some of us need to fidget to focus—move when we are doing passive activities (talking on the phone, listening to a podcast or audiobook) Do the Superwoman pose to feel empowered and strong Our culture rewards extroverts who are external processors, and it’s not geared to honor introverts and HSPs who may need more time to fully process and respond HSPs are really going to think about treatment and the best outcomes due to our depth of processing and taking in additional information that others may not pick up on We can learn to manage fearful anticipation, and it doesn’t have to prevent us from participating in life When we have parents or caregivers who don’t understand how to help us manage our feelings, we don’t learn those tools, and we may think there’s something wrong with us GUEST BIO KJ McDaniels is a Highly & Energy Sensitive Person based in Atlanta, GA. Having a love for the biological sciences, she studied Molecular Cell Biology and Immunology in undergraduate school. She is a small business owner in the animal field, future bovine veterinarian, mutifaceted musician and composer, coloratura opera singer, and most important of all, a loving aunt to a 5 year old. She hopes to spread realistic and positive knowledge about Sensitive Persons through continual conversations. PODCAST HOST Patricia knows what it’s like to feel like an outcast, misfit, truthteller and blacksheep.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation and compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other HSPs know that they aren’t alone, and that being an HSP has amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, and creating a lifestyle that honors us LINKS KJ’s email—hspetservices@gmail.com Patricia’s Links HSP Online Course--https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/hsp-online-groups/ To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select “listen on Apple Podcasts” chose “open in itunes” choose “ratings and reviews” click to rate the number of starts click “write a review”   Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com

Joshua Prudent  is a 4th-year medical student at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, who matched into pediatrics at Nationwide Children's Hospital in 2019. He grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he double-majored in Integrative Biology and Molecular & Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. Before medical school, Josh spent two years working in the production lab of a genetic screening company and TA-ing an Organic Chemistry lab course at UC Berkeley. During his medical school education, he has been involved actively involved in community youth education and mentorship, URM recruitment, peer medical education, interest group leadership, and medical student government, and took a year away from his medical education to do pediatric oncology research. Joshua is pursuing a career as a pediatric oncologist, and hopes to become an exceptional clinician researcher and medical educator at an academic center.

Atherosclerosis is a global health issue. Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial chronic inflammatory disease characterised by the accumulation of modified lipoproteins and immune cells in the aortic wall, vascular dysfunction, low-grade chronic inflammation, and formation of dangerous atherosclerotic plaques within the medium and large size vessels. Atherosclerosis is a prominent cause of cardiovascular diseases and mortality in many countries and this disease is closely associated with type 2 diabetes. Dr Elena Galkina, Professor of Microbiology and Molecular Cell Biology at Eastern Virginia Medical School, USA, has been working to determine the immune processes involved in an attempt to identify much-needed novel therapies.

The second episode of this double header, we discus M U R D E R, but more specifically the scientific legacy of female scientists who have been murdered. We start things off by discussing the east coast heat wave, Caleigh's new Soda Stream and Blown Away. Then, we dive into the murder of Hypatia of Alexandria. She was murdered in 415 AD by Christian zealots. She is known for being a famous teacher at the Neoplatonic School and the first female mathematician in history. We skip a few centuries and move onto Dian Fossey, who was murdered in 1985. Despite some of her controversial actions, she was a famous primatologist and conservationalist, known for her extensive study of mountain gorillas. She wrote Gorillas in the Mist, the best-selling book about gorillas to this day. Next, we discuss Annie Le, a third year pharmacology PhD student at Yale, who was murdered in September 2009. Annie was interested in whether, and how, fatty acids regulate a particular molecule in the body. Some of her work was published after her death. To end, we discuss Suzanne Eaton. She was a PI at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics and was found dead while attending a conference in Greece on July 8th. Generally, she was interested in how organizing tissue instructs the surrounding tissue via morphogen signaling. She used Drosophila wing development as a model organism for her developmental studies. There is a heartbreaking dedication page remembering her life.

With 500 medical students getting an MD/MBA combined degree every year, along with many attending physicians enrolling in executive MBA programs, it is increasingly common to see practicing physicians taking a role in healthcare administration. Today we invited Nelly Gonzalez who pioneered her own dual degree program here at Loyola to talk about her experience and the importance of having people with clinical experience in administrative roles. Nelly Gonzalez-Lepage is currently a 4th year MD/MBA student at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine. She graduated from University of California Berkeley with a double major in Molecular Cell Biology and Cognitive Science. She has over 8 years of work experience in health policy, management, research and public health. She is a 2016 Schweitzer Fellow and 2019 MOLA Scholar (Medical Organization for Latino Advancement). She will be applying to residency this fall 2019. Also, you might recognize that we are joined by a new host and producer for this episode. Dave is a dual degree student at Stritch, working on his MD as well as a master's in public health with a focus on policy and management. Before starting school, he has worked as a scribe in an emergency department and rheumatology clinic, and briefly worked in healthcare tech.

This week on Science for the People, we are talking about a controversial theory in evolutionary biology that has led to research on the role of single mutations that drastically alter the body plan of organisms. Guest host Anika Hazra speaks with Olivier Rieppel, curator of Evolutionary Biology at the Field Museum, about the history of this theory and where it stands within modern science. And she talks with Nipam Patel, professor of Molecular Cell Biology and Intergrative Biology at UC Berkely, about his experimental research on the role of certain mutated genes in the physical development of crustaceans.

Retinal ganglion cells have a backup plan Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are born at the apical side of the retinal neuroepithelium before they translocate to the basal side and send out axons to form the optic nerve. Icha et al. reveal that, in the zebrafish retina, RGC translocation is expedited by basal process attachment and a population of stable microtubules. If necessary, however, RGCs can switch to a backup, multipolar migratory mode to ensure that they reach the basal lamina in time to support the later stages of retinal development. This biosights episode presents the paper by Icha et al. from the October 24th, 2016, issue of The Journal of Cell Biology and includes an interview with the paper's senior author, Caren Norden (Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, Dresden, Germany).

Legal Eagle and the Caoch Radio with David Altenbern and Bryan Kiser with their guest Harris Glasser & Arman Sadeghi: Harris Glasser - By the age of 28 I had built a successful construction business. I then decided to leave business and spend time with my family working together in simpler things. I shortly started an indoor farming business, which became successful. I sold it and replicated it in Florida. I eventually sold that one too, and moved back to NYC. I later started a daily car rental agency in New York. Drawing upon my business experiences I quickly grew the company from four vehicles to 78. After a successful run of seven years I then sold it. After a lifetime of showing others how to easily deal with their various financial situations, in both business and personal matters, I wrote the book, “It’s My Money & I Want It! self-published, by “Serving The People Press”.  Arman Sadeghi is an entrepreneur, writer, speaker, and coach dedicated to sharing the tools that allow individuals to attain high level success on a consistent basis while enjoying daily fulfillment and happiness.

The actin cytoskeleton has been proposed to regulate exocytosis in many different ways. Nightingale et al. use a two-color, live-cell imaging assay to reveal two contrasting functions of actin in distinct stages of Weibel–Palade body secretion: actin-based anchors inhibit the fusion of these secretory granules with the plasma membrane but, post-fusion, a contractile actin ring squeezes granule content out of the cell. This biosights episode presents the paper by Nightingale et al. from the August 22, 2011, issue of The Journal of Cell Biology, and includes an interview with authors Thomas Nightingale and Daniel Cutler (MRC Laboratory of Molecular Cell Biology, London, UK).
