In this episode of the Cutting Edge Health: Preventing Cognitive Decline podcast, host Jane Rogers interviews Dr. Chris Ring, a researcher from the University of Birmingham, about groundbreaking findings on brain endurance training (BET). Dr. Ring explains how combining cognitive exercises with physical workouts can enhance both mental and physical performance.  His latest research shows that the negative effects of aging on performance, especially when feeling fatigued, can be mitigated by (1) regular physical activity and (2) combined cognitive and exercise priming before exercise. Originally designed for elite athletes, this approach involves doing short bursts of cognitive tasks—like memory games or attention tests—before or during exercise sessions.  Dr. Ring shares insights from a recent pilot study conducted in a small Spanish village, where older women who practiced BET showed notable improvements in both fitness and cognition compared to control groups. The conversation also touches on accessible ways for the public to implement BET using apps or simple brain tasks, even during workout breaks. Dr. Ring emphasizes the flexibility of the method and its potential to transform how we approach aging and brain health. The episode encourages listeners to rethink their fitness routines and incorporate mental challenges to boost long-term well-being. ***** Professor Christopher Ring is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Birmingham's School of Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation Sciences, where he has been a faculty member since 1995. He holds a BSc in Psychology from the University of Hull and earned his MSc and PhD in Psychology from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, specializing in cardiac psychophysics. Following his doctorate, he completed a postdoctoral fellowship in respiratory psychophysiology at Ohio University.  Professor Ring's research encompasses a broad range of topics, including the role of baroreceptors in pain perception, cognitive and sensorimotor deficits in hypertension, the effects of exercise and mental stress on immune responses to vaccination, and psychological factors influencing athletic performance, such as choking under pressure and moral decision-making in sports. His work has garnered significant recognition, with over 150 research articles published and more than 11,000 citations. In addition to his research, Professor Ring is a dedicated educator, teaching a popular third-year module on the psychophysiology of sport. He has supervised 30 doctoral students who have gone on to academic positions worldwide.  University of Birmingham Outside of academia, he is an avid golfer, continually exploring ways to improve his performance on the course. ***** Cutting Edge Health podcast website: https://cuttingedgehealth.com/ Cutting Edge Health Social and YouTube: YouTube channel: youtube.com/@cuttingedgehealthpodcast Instagram - https://instagram.com/cuttingedgehealthpodcast Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Cutting-Edge-Health-Podcast-with-Jane-Rogers-101036902255756 Please note that the information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Ep 17 Founder Series Pt 2: A 20-Year Journey to Make Motion Preservation the New Standard in Spine, Scott Hodges, DO   In Part 2 of our Founder Series, co-hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf sit down with fellowship-trained, orthopedic spine surgeon Dr. Scott Hodges. Well known by several titles, including Medical Director at 3Spine, co-inventor of MOTUS, and leading advocate for motion preservation in spine surgery, Dr. Hodges shares his behind-the-scenes journey to bringing motion preservation to the forefront of spine care. His enthralling story includes the more than 20-year process of bringing a novel spine implant to market- from initial sketch drawings and early prototypes to clinical trials in South Africa and the U.S.    Dr. Hodges' journey began at Southern Adventist University in his current hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee, followed by medical school at Kansas City University, residency at Ohio University, and his fellowship in spine surgery at Loyola University Chicago School of Medicine. He went on to build a thriving surgical practice in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and it was here that the idea to improve upon the current standard of care for spine patients was formed and flourished.   Dissatisfied with the available technologies and long-term patient outcomes in spine, Dr. Hodges dedicated his career to creating a solution. With an aim for creating a better treatment for spine surgery patients, Dr. Hodges partnered with Dr. Craig Humphreys to co-develop MOTUS, the first total joint replacement for the lumbar spine. Their goal was to create an implant that restored function in the lumbar spine and the entire kinetic chain, without sacrificing the body's natural motion. With this new endeavor, Dr. Hodges shifted his focus entirely to bringing these solutions to patients, navigating the complex world of medical device development, and leading surgeon education for this novel approach to spine care.   In this episode, you'll learn: The road to innovation: What it takes to develop, refine, and clinically validate a motion-preserving device. What's next for spine surgery: How motion preservation, total joint replacement, facet replacements, and endoscopic techniques are shaping the future of spine care for patients struggling with chronic leg and/or back pain. The origins of MOTUS: How a simple concept became the first lumbar total joint replacement. Patient demand as a driver of care: How patient demand is driving new technologies to the forefront of surgical care. The importance of the kinetic chain: Why motion in all areas of the body is important and how the different joints in the body - knees, hips, ankles, and spine - work together to allow the body to properly function. Why training & education matter: How surgeon training and patient education play a pivotal role in the adoption and access of new technologies for spine care.   This episode, recorded between the 3Spine headquarters in Chattanooga, TN and the world-renowned MERI Lab in Memphis, takes you inside the decades-long journey of bringing a new spine device to market, from the first clinical cases in South Africa to FDA trials in the U.S. As a pioneer, innovator, teacher, and leader, Dr. Hodges shares his compelling story of how data, surgeon training, and patient demand for motion preserving devices are driving the future of spine surgery.   This episode is a must-watch for spine surgeons, medical innovators, and anyone interested in the future of spine surgery and the journey of bringing a new device to the market.   Missed Part 1? Watch our interview with Dr. Craig Humphreys for the full Founder Series!    Note: The MOTUS device is currently in the data collection phase of a US IDE FDA Trial and is not available for commercial use at the time of recording.

Few people know the U.S. car industry more intimately than the Wall Street Journal deputy auto editor Mike Colias. His new book, Inevitable, offers an insiders guide into what he sees as our messy, yet unstoppable transition to electric vehicles. In this wide ranging conversation on all things automotive, Colias addresses Trump's recent tariff impacts on the American car industry, the stark contrast between Chinese (50%) and US (10%) EV adoption rates, and China's dominance in battery supply chains and charging infrastructure. Colias explains how Chinese automakers have leapfrogged traditional manufacturers in EV technology, while European makers are caught between regulatory pressures and relentless Chinese competition. He ends with some thoughts about the future of autonomous vehicles which he sees as far less"inevitable" than EVs.Here are the 5 KEEN ON takeaways from our conversation with Colias: * The stark contrast between EV adoption rates globally - China leads with 50% of new car sales being electric, Europe follows at 20-25%, while the US lags at around 10%. This sharp disparity is largely due to China's strategic government support, infrastructure investment, and incentives.* China's dominance in the EV supply chain is comprehensive - from controlling critical minerals (lithium, cobalt, nickel) to processing capabilities and battery production. This gives Chinese manufacturers a significant competitive advantage that Western automakers are struggling to match. It might even point to the superiority of the Chinese state lead innovation model over the US market driven one. * The role of hybrids as a "bridge technology" - Many consumers, particularly in the US, are choosing hybrids as a stepping stone to full EVs, suggesting the transition might be more gradual than initially predicted by US (but not Japanese) automakers who invested heavily in full electric vehicles.* The environmental impact of EVs is more complex than some activists would have us believe - While EVs produce more carbon emissions during manufacturing than gas vehicles, they ultimately result in 30% less emissions over their lifecycle. However, their environmental benefit depends significantly on the source of electricity used to power them.* Trump's new tariffs (as of 2025) are creating significant disruption in the auto industry, particularly affecting the established North American supply chains -While unions support the tariffs for potential job creation, most auto executives view them as harmful to the industry and likely to increase car prices.Mike Colias is the deputy bureau chief for autos, based in The Wall Street Journal's Detroit bureau. His articles explore the auto industry's massive and messy transition to electric vehicles, self-driving cars and other technologies with the potential to reshape how people get around. He writes and edits stories about Ford, GM and other major car companies navigating change, from EVs and in-car tech to tariffs. Mike is also author of the 2025 book: “Inevitable: Inside the Messy, Unstoppable Transition to Electric Vehicles." He joined WSJ from trade publication Automotive News, where he covered GM. Before that, he wrote about health care at Crain's Chicago Business and worked at The Associated Press in Chicago. He graduated from Ohio University with degrees in journalism and business.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting the daily KEEN ON show, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy interview series. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE.

In this lively episode of Confessions of a Higher Ed CMO, Jaime Hunt sits down with Robin Oliver, Vice President for Communications and Marketing at Ohio University, to discuss how creativity can break through the traditional boundaries of higher ed marketing. Robin shares the story behind Ohio University's wildly successful "Name a Squirrel" campaign, her approach to fostering a culture of trust and creativity on her team, and the lessons she's learned about leading with boldness in an industry often bogged down by bureaucracy. If you're looking for inspiration to bring fresh, innovative thinking to your higher ed marketing strategy, this episode is a must-listen.Key TakeawaysA Creative Campaign Can Spark Engagement: Ohio University's “Name a Squirrel” campaign turned a quirky idea into a fundraising phenomenon, raising over 140% of their goal by offering donors the chance to symbolically name campus squirrels.Hire for Creativity, Not Just Credentials: Robin emphasizes the value of looking beyond traditional higher ed resumes to hire talent that can think outside the box.Leadership Starts with Trust and Respect: Building an environment where team members feel safe to pitch bold ideas is essential for fostering innovation.Constraints Fuel Creativity: Limitations, like the inability to host in-person events during COVID, often drive some of the most ingenious marketing ideas.Eliminate the Fear of Failure: Most marketing risks aren't life-or-death, so leaders need to encourage experimentation and focus on the potential for big wins.What Made the "Name a Squirrel" Campaign So Effective? Robin Oliver shares the origins of Ohio University's lighthearted yet highly effective “Name a Squirrel” campaign. Ohio University's Athens campus is known for its picturesque scenery, vibrant wildlife, and iconic squirrels, which became the stars of a social media-driven fundraising initiative. For a symbolic donation of $18.04 (the year of the university's founding), alumni could name a campus squirrel. Creative touches like certificates and a cheeky FAQ page made the campaign even more engaging, and the initiative far exceeded its goals, bringing in over 1,000 gifts and inspiring repeat donations.This campaign wasn't just a fundraising triumph; it showcased how humor, playfulness, and campus culture can be leveraged to connect with alumni. It also highlights the importance of low barriers to entry and targeted messaging for first-time donors.How Do You Build a Creative Team? Robin's secret to fostering creativity starts with hiring the right people. Her decision to take a chance on a candidate with a non-traditional higher ed resume—Brooke Preston, a former satire writer—paid off in spades. Brooke's unique background brought a fresh voice to Ohio University's marketing efforts, including the witty copy that made the “Name a Squirrel” campaign so successful.Robin believes in creating an environment where her team feels empowered to dream big. She fosters trust and respect by giving team members the freedom to take ownership of their ideas and by showcasing the talents of everyone on her team, not just the loudest voices. “Respect comes first,” she says, “and trust follows.”How Can Leaders Support Creativity and Risk-Taking? Robin advises leaders to focus on removing the fear of failure from their teams. She reminds her staff that “there's no organ in a cooler under your desk”—a metaphor for keeping things in perspective and realizing that marketing risks are rarely catastrophic. By encouraging her team to embrace uncertainty, she creates a safe space for experimentation and innovation.For example, Robin empowered her team to take Ohio University's TikTok presence from “sad and lonely” to a vibrant, engaging channel. By trusting her team to run with bold ideas—like a video featuring the university president giving a Gen Z-themed campus tour—they've been able to create viral content that resonates with students and alumni alike.What's the Role of Leadership in Breaking Down Bureaucracy? Robin acknowledges that higher ed is often hamstrung by bureaucracy, but she refuses to let red tape stifle creativity. Her leadership philosophy is rooted in persistence and problem-solving: “I make the obstacles my creative work,” she says. Whether it's reimagining a brand launch during COVID or championing unconventional marketing campaigns, Robin demonstrates how to navigate institutional constraints without losing momentum.One standout example is Ohio University's use of their campus graffiti wall. Traditionally reserved for student expression, Robin's team decided to use the wall as part of their brand launch, creating an interactive installation that invited students to share their thoughts on what “Forever Ohio” meant to them. The result? A buzzworthy initiative that connected the university's messaging with student voices in a powerful and memorable way.How Do You Balance Creativity and Strategy? While creativity is essential, Robin stresses that it should always be tied back to a clear goal. “What are we trying to achieve?” is the first question she asks her team when evaluating new ideas. Metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) matter, and Robin ensures her team's bold ideas ultimately serve the university's strategic objectives.At the same time, she recognizes that not everyone on her team will thrive in a high-risk, high-creativity environment—and that's okay. Having a balance of big thinkers and detail-oriented team members helps ensure that wild ideas are executed thoughtfully.Guest Name: Robin Oliver, Vice President for Communications and Marketing at Ohio UniversityGuest Social: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robinoliver/ Guest Bio: Robin Oliver serves as the Vice President of University Communications and Marketing at Ohio University where she leads a central team of more than 60 staff members managing marketing and brand strategy, creative development, market research, web content and design, social media, media relations, internal communications and university publications.

During this episode, Amy Neumann, the Founder and Executive Director of Resourceful Nonprofit, highlighted how AI can help nonprofits streamline operations and amplify their impact. Drawing from her book, Empower Your Nonprofit, Amy explained how AI offers unprecedented opportunities for mission-driven organizations to achieve more with fewer resources.“AI enables nonprofits to synthesize years of data into actionable insights,” Amy explained. She noted that this can help nonprofits create concise impact reports, donor presentations, or executive summaries that would otherwise require hours of manual effort. “It's not about the technology itself but how it can help us impact the world positively,” she said.One standout example Amy shared was the use of generative AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude for drafting content. These tools not only accelerate content creation but also provide tailored insights to refine messaging for specific audiences, such as funders or volunteers. Amy emphasized that AI allows organizations to “turn insights into impact” by removing barriers to efficiency and creativity.She also addressed common fears surrounding AI adoption. “Some people have a moral objection to AI,” Amy acknowledged. However, she shared success stories of skeptics who, after learning how accessible and effective AI tools are, became champions of their use within their organizations.Amy's enthusiasm for technology's potential to drive social good was infectious. Her insights challenge nonprofits to embrace AI as a tool for amplifying their mission. Her organization, Resourceful Nonprofit, is pioneering this approach by helping nonprofits integrate AI into their workflows to foster inclusivity and efficiency.Nonprofits looking to amplify their impact should heed Amy's advice: Start small, experiment with accessible tools, and focus on how AI can support—not replace—the human element of mission-driven work.tl;dr:* Amy Neumann highlights AI's potential to help nonprofits synthesize data and amplify their missions.* She explains how generative AI tools simplify tasks like reporting, content creation, and impact measurement.* Amy shares her superpower of translating complex technologies into actionable social impact initiatives.* A compelling example shows how AI accelerates learning, saving time for mission-driven work.* Practical tips encourage nonprofits to embrace AI for efficiency and creativity without requiring technical expertise.How to Develop Translating Technology into Action As a SuperpowerAmy's superpower is her ability to translate complex technologies, like AI, into actionable insights for creating meaningful social impact. “I got obsessed early on with figuring out how technology could change the world,” Amy said. She leverages this skill to inspire others to adopt and implement technology for their missions.Amy shared how she uses AI to accelerate her own learning and productivity. For example, she uses generative AI to quickly gather and synthesize credible resources, enabling her to stay ahead in her studies and work. This efficiency has not only transformed her learning process but also demonstrates how nonprofits can use AI to better serve their missions by saving time and effort.Tips for Developing This Superpower:* Start with curiosity: Explore how new tools can help solve everyday challenges.* Practice co-creating with AI by combining its insights with your creativity.* Use generative AI tools for tasks like research, content creation, or problem-solving.* Start small: Experiment with user-friendly tools like ChatGPT or Poe for specific tasks.* Embrace a growth mindset: Recognize that no one is born with expertise—practice and learning are key.Conclusion: By following Amy Neumann's example and advice, you can make “translating technology into action” a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

We can use more of that today.”   His time with the Oakland A's saw attendance rise from 300 to 16,000 season ticket holders, culminating in the 1989 World Series win against the Giants despite the challenges of the Loma Prieta earthquake.   “It is sports that really helps bring people together,” he notes.   Reflecting on teamwork, leadership, and trust, Dolich also discusses his unsuccessful 1999 bid to buy the A's.
