We meet Dr Daniel Timms, the Australian biomechanical engineer behind BiVACOR who has dedicated his life to developing a titanium Total Artificial Heart (TAH) to restore the lives of people with end-stage heart failure, a disease that impacted his own family.It's a 25-year quest that has taken him from a PhD at QUT, developing the device with his father in his parent's kitchen in Queensland, to collaborating with experts around the world and expanding operations to the US on his mission to save lives.In 2024 Daniel made history in Texas, with the first successful implantation of the titanium heart into a patient awaiting a heart transplant, as part of an FDA feasibility study. Since then, several patients have received the heart as a bridge to a heart transplant and now Australian patients will be involved in clinical studies.MTPConnect's Targeted Translation Research Accelerator program for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, an MRFF initiative, has supported BiVACOR 's development of a more portable external controller to allow for long-term use with the heart.News of BiVACOR's innovation has spread around the world as patients have shared their story of second chances after receiving the implant. Now we hear Daniel's story, how the TAH is designed, his inspiration and approach to innovation, collaborations with NASA and transplant surgeons around the world, his plans to expand operations in Australia and what's next for the privately held company he has put his heart and soul into as he aims to develop the TAH as a long term device that patients can have for the rest of their lives.
Diabetes affects one in 20 people. An important initiative to set up a ‘virtual' emergency department designed for people living with diabetes has launched in Melbourne, Victoria during National Diabetes Week, with the aim of preventing unnecessary trips to hospital. The Victorian Virtual Emergency Department-Diabetes Service will be added to the existing Victorian Virtual Emergency Department (VVED) giving patients 24/7 online video access to emergency nurses and doctors. As a world first, this new model of care will add a roster of diabetes specialists on weekend and evening shifts, when diabetes patients are most likely to present to a hospital emergency department. Joining the podcast to talk about this new initiative is endocrinologist Professor Elif Ekinci, Director of Diabetes at Austin Health, Head of Department of Medicine at University of Melbourne, and Director of the Australian Centre for Accelerating Diabetes Innovations(ACADI). ACADI was established in 2022 through MRFF funding from the Australian Government's Targeted Translation Research Accelerator (TTRA) program, delivered by MTPConnect. Also joining the discussion is Northern Health's Dr Loren Sher, an emergency specialist who led development of Australia's first virtual emergency department model, now operating as a Victorian state-wide service. Loren has been instrumental in working with Elif to get the diabetes service up and running. Hosts are Caroline Duell, MTPConnect's Director Media and Communications and Lauren Kelly, Senior Director of the TTRA program.

In this special bonus episode, I caught up recently with Mikey Weinstein, founder and leader of the MRFF--the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. This incredible civil rights advocacy organization is dedicated to one thing: preserving the religious freedoms of active duty, cadets, reservists and veteran service members of the US Armed Forces. According to their site: "MRFF clients have faced unconstitutional religious church/state violations and noxious abuse from their military superiors who almost exclusively brandish one particular version of Christianity, fundamentalist Christianity, as a weapon to intimidate, menace, harass, subdue, and terrify their otherwise helpless armed forces subordinates." This is what the MRFF is all about--fighting against weaponized Christianity in the US military. Support the Ongoing Work of MindShift Podcast on Patreon!

The religious freedom rights of our men and women in the U.S. military is constantly coming under attack, and First Liberty is fighting back each and every time. Learn more at FirstLiberty.org/Briefing. You have heard me refer to Mikey Weinstein and his deceptively-named Military Religious Freedom Foundation on this program more than once. Over the last couple of months, this group of anti-faith activists has certainly shown a dogged resolve to brazenly attack the right of our service members to live out their faith. After the MRFF sent a legal demand to the Department of Defense regarding our client, Shields of Strength, a Christian company that graciously provides replica dog tags with inspirational Bible verses to active-duty service members, veterans and their families who want them, we had to take action. We’ve now sent two demand letters on the topic—one to the Army and another to the Navy—insisting the DOD respect our client’s religious liberty. But that’s not all. Before Christmas of 2019, the group complained about an inflatable Santa Claus on an Army base, claiming that the display was unconstitutional because it stood wearing military camouflage, a lapel reading “Christmas Force” and held a small sign with the phrase, “God Bless America.” Not only that, they also called out the Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, CO for selling Jesus-themed candy canes. These may sound silly, but we can’t risk not taking them seriously. Just as our service members never give up when fighting for our freedoms, First Liberty will never give up on our mission to fight for their First Freedom. To learn how First Liberty is protecting religious liberty for all Americans, visit FirstLiberty.org.
Mike Pence and Donald Trump are creating an epidemic of Christian Dominionism in our military. Generals inside YOUR Pentagon are now being encouraged to spread the false doctrine that America is a Christian nation that must be ruled by Christian soldiers. We talk again to Mikey Weinstein, founder and leader of The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). MRFF is a watchdog group and advocacy organization founded in 2005 to "ensure that members of the United States Armed Forces receive the Constitutional guarantee of religious freedom to which they are entitled by virtue of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment."

Dustin' off the Degree - Indulgences NEWS Catholic school puts counselor on leave over same-sex marriage http://bit.ly/an264-counselor Shelly Fitzgerald married her then partner of 18 years in 2014 and has worked as a counselor for Roncalli High School in Indianapolis for 15 years. Someone learned of her marriage, got a copy of the marriage license, a public record, and sent it to the school administrators who ran it up the chain of command and she's been placed on administrative leave pending her resignation or the end of her contract since she refused the option of dissolving the marriage. At issue here are the following facts: Roncalli High School is a Catholic school. The school receives vouchers, in other words it's publicly funded. Indiana's religious freedom law was amended to not allow discrimination. 'In God We Trust' now must be displayed in all Florida schools, school buildings http://bit.ly/an264-motto Just like we talked about two weeks ago for Kentucky, Florida is also requiring that all schools display “In God We Trust” in a conspicuous place. St. Lucie Public Schools gave all schools a poster to put in their front offices. Palm Beach County School District emailed principles two signs and asked them to print and post one. Okeechobee County schools were each given a state seal, which includes the required text and have been directed to put it “in a prominent spot on each campus”. Interestingly displaying the Florida state flag would also comply. MRFF files complaint against US Air Force General http://bit.ly/264-mrff The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has sent Secretary of Defense, US Air Force Leadership, and the command at Edwards Air Force Base a 22 page letter detailing the issues they have found with Brig Gen E. John Teichert after receiving 41 complaints and conducting an investigation of the ministry he runs. Of concern is his evangelical dominionist agenda that he pushes in a way that is allegedly unbecoming an officer and creates serious establishment clause issues and the way that he treats atheists, agnostics, Muslims, Hindus, and Mormons under his command, which is illegal discrimination. Saudi Arabia Orders 16,000 Students to Leave Canada Amid Escalating Clash http://bit.ly/an264-saudi1 http://bit.ly/an264-saudi2 On August 5 the Government of Canada called for the release of blogger Raif Badawi and his sister Samar, via tweet, for obvious human rights concerns. In response the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia declared the Canadian Ambassador persona non grata, recalled their own ambassador to Canada, orders all 16,000 Saudi students in Canada to find new countries to study in, canceled all flights between Saudi Arabia and Canada, and suspended investment activity in Canada. They are still selling oil to Canada. Saudi Arabia crucified man in Mecca while calling out Canada human rights http://bit.ly/an264-saudi3 Saudi Arabia has also been going on the offense against Canada's horrific human rights record, especially with their treatment of women. On their official Twitter account they retweeted a picture someone made of an airliner about to fly into the CN Tower. But their strongest show of moral superiority yet, they crucified a man in Mecca. Normally crucifixion is reserved for only the most heinous of crimes, homosexuality and attending government protests, but in this man's case he was merely guilty of murder, theft, and attempted rape. Denmark imposes first veil ban fine on woman http://bit.ly/an264-denmark Danish police were called to a shopping mall over a fight between two women. One of the women was wearing a veil, the other was not and the former's veil fell off during the fight. The police fined both women for public disorder and also fined the one woman for wearing a face veil in public. The fine was for 1000 kroner, or about $155. English law applies to Islamic marriage, judge rules in divorce case

Amazon.com: pat holliday kindle: Books http://amzn.to/GF3mTC CHRISTMAS GREETINGS We are spending Christmas day with you! Eighteen active-duty service members there protested nativity scenes and "Merry Christmas" banners in two base cafeterias. Because they were too afraid to speak directly to their higher-ups, fearing retribution because of the base's “religious climate,” they went to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. The nativity scenes have since beenmoved to the courtyard of the base chapel. Apparently, the displays were set up by foreign contractors who manage the two dining facilities and were "not intended to endorse any religion," a spokeswoman for the commander of the base said in response to the MRFF.
Chris Rodda is the Research Director for The Military Religious Freedom Foundation which is dedicated to ensuring that all members of the United States Armed Forces fully receive the Constitutional guarantees of religious freedom to which they and all Americans are entitled by virtue of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment of the US Constitution. MRFF believes that religious faith is a Constitutionally guaranteed freedom that must never be compromised, except in the most limited of military circumstances, because of its fundamental importance to the preservation of the American nation and the American way of life. We discussed the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, its history and mission, the work that it is doing, and some of the responses that the organization has received. The program originally aired on 7/18/20. Contact Information: http://militaryreligiousfreedom.org/
Chris Rodda, MRFF researcher and author of Liars for Jesus, joins us on the show. She exposes the right wing theocrats who are rewriting history claiming America was founded to be a Christian nation. The NCBCPS Bible as Literature curriculum has already introduced these fictions into public schools across the nation. Making things worse, the Texas Board of Education has hired historical revisionist David Barton to review the state's social studies curriculum. Rodda explains what this could mean for textbook publishers in the United States. Also in this episode: the doubtcasters answer email criticizing their case for vegetarianism. Reasonable Doubts: Your skeptical guide to religion offering news and commentary of interest to skeptics, atheists, humanists, apologists looking for a challenge and freethinkers of all persuasions.
