"Lung transplantation is always exciting. But it will be even more in the future!" Leaders in the transplantation field and well-regarded ERS Officers, Michael Perch and Federica Meloni, join Dorina Esendagli in a podcast focusing on the latest Monograph: Lung Transplantation. Covering the formidable topics of immunosuppressive treatment and post-transplant care, it is clear that both the podcast and book are hugely relevant to the transplant specialist. However, Michael and Federica explain that the book is also aimed at specialists in other areas of pneumology, as well as general physicians from beyond the respiratory field. Broadening understanding about this challenging area is essential if we are to improve prognosis and widen donor availability.

Michael Rababy documents US American gambling culture in his new book, Casinoland - Tired of Winning. Rows of shrill slot machines, glowing billboards, and gaudy splendor appear alongside exhausted faces, tired looks, and lost games.

The series focuses more on the casino as a capitalist institution as a whole than on the individual gamblers. Michael Rababy is a Lebanese-American documentary photographer who frequently deals with US American culture and society in his work. He works as a freelance photographer and has photographed for numerous media companies.

What should architects understand about the influence of computational design in practice?Technology has prompted a massive change in the way we practice architecture. This week we've invited Andrew Heumann to the show to help us take a deep dive into the world of computational design and coding. This episode aims to bridge the gap between those new to the niche of computational design and those embedded in the community. Andrew will share his perspective on the evolution of the digital tools that help architects create, the role of coding in architectural design, his work at Hypar, and trends in computational design.Hypar: Building technology visionaries have spent 70 years telling us we could generate building designs, but instead, the software industry helped us draw walls. It's time for AEC to do what the software industry has done for 40 years — capture and share its expertise to accelerate the improvement of an entire sector, not just individual projects.With Hypar, anyone can generate, visualize and analyze buildings to make better decisions faster. You can easily add your own processes and expertise so you don't start from square one with each new project.Guest:Andrew Heumann is a software developer at Hypar, with a passion for building the next generation of software tools for designers. He has previously worked as an automation researcher at WeWork, and before that as an architectural designer at Woods Bagot and NBBJ architects. He has written more than 20 plug-ins for 3D modeling software like Rhino and Revit, including the popular "Human" and "Human UI" plugins for Grasshopper. Outside of his professional work, Andrew is a generative artist, working with data, algorithms, geometry, and machines to create rich visual abstractions that engage and challenge the limits and affordances of digital media. Andrew has studied both architecture and computer science and has lectured and taught seminars at Columbia GSAPP, Yale University, Princeton University, and the California College of the Arts. His work has been published in Wallpaper* magazine, the International Journal of Architectural Computing, CLOG journal, and presented at conferences including ACADIA, SIMAUD, Autodesk University, the Design Modelling Symposium, and the AEC Technology Symposium.

Why is everyone talking about Monograph?Founded in 2018 by Robert Yuen, Alex Dixon, and Moe Amaya, the initial agency called Dixon & Moe has grown into a 50-person team, now known as Monograph. In their search to build tools and websites for startups and architecture firms, they noticed a recurring challenge—architects and project managers kept complaining about their existing and non-existent project management software. Even more prevalent, there was a disconnect between how projects were managed, budgets were forecast, and time was tracked. Often they would hear that existing solutions are “cumbersome” or “tedious”. Why wasn't there a solution that could help architects manage their firms more effectively, with more transparency?This week we interview Robert Yuen, the CEO and Co-Founder of Monograph to learn about the company's growth, pursuit in solving the challenges of the industry, and vision for the future. Let's just say that their plans are much bigger than project management.Guest:Robert Yuen, Assoc. AIA, is the CEO and Co-Founder of Monograph, a software company revolutionizing the future in how architectural projects are managed. Having worked as an architectural designer in his hometown Chicago and ultimately setting his roots down in San Francisco, Yuen discovered his passion for designing software solutions for the AEC industry. A serial entrepreneur, a trained architect, and zealously productive, Robert is an active member and avid public speaker within the architecture, design, and engineering industries.His experience in working with some of the industry's most renowned firms and designers, including SOM, Holabird & Root, and BluHomes, led him to discover a void for a simple cloud-based project management application that was tailored to the industry. As such, Yuen co-founded Monograph alongside his co-founders Alex Dixon and Moe Amaya, to help architects and engineers oversee projects in an integrated, user-friendly, and ever-evolving interface. Robert graduated with a Masters in Architecture and a Masters in Science in Digital Technologies from the University of Michigan.

"Digital transformation is already happening. It's not a question of if, but how." The restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic changed the landscape of digital healthcare forever. The respiratory field is at the forefront of this change, putting it in the exciting position of shaping the future use of digital care. In this podcast, Dorina Esendagli (from the ERS Monograph Editorial Board) talks to Guest Editors Vitalii Poberezhets and Hilary Pinnock about their issue of the Monograph, addressing the applications and safety of technology, the uses of big data and data protection, digital healthcare for patient self-management and remote supervision, and avoiding healthcare inequity.

Episode 067: Architecture And: The Future of WorkplaceHow can technology simplify workflows for both clients and designers?As CEO of CANOA, Federico Negro is building the first end-to-end platform for designing, procuring, and managing low-carbon, reconfigurable interiors in the workplace. What does that mean in simple terms? Clients and designers can design, purchase, and completely furnish the office space without touching CAD or going through a dealer.Even though CANOA is a technology platform, they are reimagining the supply chain and procurement process for everything that, “falls out of a building when you turn it upside down.” And did we mention they are doing so in the most climate-friendly way possible?CANOA is on its way to being certified as a B Corp and is not the first company that Federico Negro founded. We talked with him about everything from building company culture, launching a workplace-focused company just before the pandemic, and building a business from the ground up, having learned from his first successful company, Case (which was acquired by WeWork).Guest:Federico Negro is the founder and CEO of CANOA, a new workplace design tool with an embedded marketplace of furniture, prefabricated and modular structures, and more. CANOA's mission is to decarbonize commercial real estate and they're doing so by reinventing the way businesses shop for the office. Learn more at https://www.canoa.supply

"Communication is everything. It was the lifeblood for the success that we had on this project." - Bill Mandara, ManciniVisualize the hustle and bustle of Times Square, the pulsing core of New York City. Now, imagine elevating an entire structure in the midst of one of the busiest intersections in North America if not the World. This is the scale of the TSX Broadway undertaking to which Bill Mandara, Benjamin Alper, and Joe Levi have dedicated their expertise. Last year, the renowned Palace Theatre, which has hosted performances by legends like Judy Garland and Bob Hope, was elevated 30 feet to create space for premium retail outlets beneath it. The theatre's prime location at the most bustling intersection in the Northern Hemisphere, right in the middle of Times Square, prompted this decision.Over a span of seven years, this trio, along with their respective teams at Mancini Duffy, Severud Associates, and Pavarini McGovern, persevered through a myriad of obstacles and invented novel methods to accomplish what seemed to be an insurmountable task. The project, which is now on the brink of completion, is set to revolutionize the way individual Architecture, Engineering, and Construction firms interact with each other and their public and private clients on large scale projects. It stands as a powerful tribute to their joint creativity, persistence, and the efficacy of their collaboration. Reflecting on their journey, they recount the knowledge gained, the bonds formed, and the delight of witnessing their dream materialize.In this episode, you will be able to:Discover the pivotal role of collaboration and coordination in managing large-scale projects.Unravel the inherent challenges and complexities involved in the massive TSX Broadway project.Understand the indispensable importance of effective communication with regulatory agencies.Be exposed to the unique considerations when operating within the dynamic space of New York City.All of this and much more are on this episode of The Zweig Letter Podcast.Click HERE to Reserve Your Spot at ElevateAEC in Frisco, TX September 13-15(Mention The Zweig Letter Podcast for a 10% discount)Resources:Connect with Bill Mandara on LinkedInConnect with J.

The Little Herb Saver: Lemon balm is like a blanket of peace, calming a nervous stomach, reducing anxiety, elevating  a gloomy feeling, and providing relief for sleepless nights. That's a lot, but that's also not all.  Lemon balm is easy to grow, lovely to eat or drink as tea, powerful in its own right but not in a way that lends caution to using it. To get more lemon balm into our lives, can only be a good thing. And this is why I deem it a little herbal saver.  Thank you for joining me for this part 2 lemon balm monograph.
