Gram-negative resistance is beautifully intricate, scientifically elegant, and very complex. Nothing is more exciting than the recently approved and bursting pipeline of beta-lactamase inhibitors. Listen to Drs. Sam Aitken and Christophe Le Terrier, along with host Dr. Erin McCreary, describe the nuanced enzymology and other antibacterial properties of beta-lactamase inhibitors. This episode also discusses the concepts of stand-alone inhibitors, resistance development, and more. If you want to learn more about sulbactam, clavulanic acid, tazobactam, avibactam, relebactam, vaborbactam, durlobactam, enmetazobactam, zidebactam, nacubactam, ledaborbactam, taniborbactam, and xeruborbactam – this episode is for you!

Climate change is already affecting our health, often in ways we don't realise. Beyond hotter summers and more frequent heatwaves, it is creating conditions that allow some infectious diseases to spread, extending allergy seasons and increasing health risks linked to extreme weather.In this episode of ECDC: On Air, Dr Celine Gossner, Deputy Head of Unit for One Health-related Diseases at the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), expert in food, water, vector-borne and zoonotic diseases, and Aleksandra Kaźmierczak - Expert in Climate Change and Human Health at the European Environment Agency (EEA), discuss how a changing climate is reshaping health across Europe.From the spread of mosquitoes and ticks into new regions to the growing risks of food- and water-borne diseases, they explain how climate change is affecting infectious disease risks. They also explore the wider health impacts of rising temperatures, floods, wildfires, air pollution and changing pollen seasons, and why these changes are already affecting communities today, not just future generations.The conversation also looks at how Europe is preparing for climate-sensitive health threats through climate adaptation, surveillance, early warning systems and cross-sector collaboration, while highlighting practical steps individuals can take to protect themselves.-----In this episode:- Why climate change is a public health issue- How climate change is affecting infectious disease risks- Mosquito-borne diseases, tick-borne diseases and Vibrio infections- Heatwaves, floods, wildfires and respiratory health- The European Climate and Health Observatory- How Europe is preparing for climate-sensitive health threats- What individuals can do to reduce health risks-----Links:Latest ECDC news on heatwaves and healthECDC's guide to a safe summer-----Learn more:

In this episode of The Consult Room, we're diving into a piece of research that sounds surprising on the surface - but opens up a fascinating conversation about how we understand disease. We're exploring the hidden genetic link between cats and human cancer.Cats and humans share some of the exact same cancer-driving genetic mutations, including changes in a gene known as TP53, often called the "guardian of the genome". Because our pets share our homes, environments, and lifestyles, the naturally occurring cancers they develop offer unique insights into real-world disease that traditional laboratory models simply can't match.In this episode, I break down the emerging field of comparative oncology and what this shared biology means for the future of medicine. We explore whether studying feline health could help unlock human treatments - and why, as pet owners and professionals, we need to balance scientific curiosity with a healthy dose of clinical realism.In This EpisodeWhat the TP53 gene is and why it's considered the body's ultimate defense mechanismWhy studying naturally occurring cancers in cats is catching scientists' attentionHow comparative oncology bridges the gap between human and veterinary medicineThe concept of a "One Health" approach to understanding disease across speciesThe crucial difference between a scientific insight and an instant clinical cureEthical considerations around animal welfare and data in medical researchKey TakeawaysCancers in cats can share fundamental biological pathways with human cancersPets living alongside us offer a more realistic mirror for disease than lab-created modelsA shared genetic mutation does not mean diseases are identical or cured the same wayThe future of medicine lies in breaking down silos between human and animal healthResearch must be interpreted carefully to avoid overpromising real-world impacts

La concejala de Salud y Bienestar Social, Pilar Torres, ha presentado esta campaña informativa en puntos clave como la pasarela Manterola y el jardín del Malecón para concienciar a los vecinos sobre los peligros de alimentar a la fauna urbana. Bajo el enfoque "One Health" (una sola salud), se explica que el exceso de comida provoca una reproducción descontrolada de las palomas, lo que genera suciedad, atrae plagas de cucarachas y roedores, y aumenta el riesgo de transmisión de enfermedades zoonóticas como la histomoniasis u ornitosis a través del polvillo de las heces secas, Además del control natural mediante el proyecto Falco con la introducción de halcones, el consistorio recuerda que, aunque se prioriza la pedagogía, la ordenanza municipal contempla sanciones de hasta 300 euros por alimentar a estos animales sin autorización. Aunque se estima que hay entre 7.000 y 12.000 palomas en el municipio, los expertos advierten también sobre el daño que el pan causa a los patos del río, provocando dolencias como el síndrome de ala de ángel.

Today's guests are Barry Taylor and Emma Cashman — the co-founders of the Land At Home Project, a nonprofit built on the simple but evidence-backed premise that veterans need a renewed sense of purpose and America needs new farmers and ranchers. Barry grew up on a small ranch in rural southeastern Arizona — the kind of place where summers meant fence work and cattle, the kind of work you couldn't wait to leave until you were old enough to realize what it imparted in you. His career took him through emergency medicine, nursing, and eventually hospital administration before landing him in a civilian consulting role with Navy Medicine Western Region. Emma grew up in Toronto and a very early age, fell in love with horses. She spent much of her early childhood learning horsemanship before moving to Arizona when she was in college. While finishing her undergraduate degree in nursing, she met her husband who was an active duty airman in the Air Force. She went on to get her master's degree in public health before spending years working across flight medicine and public health at military bases in Italy and San Diego, then ultimately joining Barry at Nav Med West. There, the two of them started connecting the dots between military service and agriculture over coffee while both working as infection prevention and control nurses. What they landed on is something Emma articulates in a way I've never heard described before: "Agriculture is full of these imperatives — you must get up to feed the animals, there's just no way around that. Coming from a very structured life in the military, where there are lots of things that you must do, and then going to the free-for-all of civilian life can be very challenging. Having an occupation that's full of these imperatives is helpful — it gives structure in a non-rigid way." In this episode, I want you to listen for a few key themes: Emma's expert review of the peer-reviewed, evidence-based case for why agriculture and military service are a documented fit — not just intuition, but data; How Land At Home's three-part model of education, internship, and mentorship was built by studying what other programs were missing; and A conversation about the One Health framework — and why food security, veteran mental health, and rural community revitalization could actually be the same problem wearing three different hats.

This episode, we're talking ergotism, a fungus-driven poisoning linked to contaminated grains like rye. It's a vivid One Health case study where weather patterns, crop disease, and human biology collide in ways that were historically interpreted as supernatural, but that we now know are due to the razor thin edge between medicine and poison in the alkaloids nature can produce.We walk through how ergot infects rye, how it survives across seasons, and why insects help spread it. Then we get into the real driver of the chaos: ergot alkaloids. These compounds can vary by region and growing conditions, creating different “cocktails” that change how outbreaks look from place to place. That variability helps explain why some communities saw gangrenous ergotism with dry gangrene from severe blood vessel constriction, while others faced convulsive ergotism marked by neurological symptoms and hallucinations.Ergot's legacy isn't only tragedy. We also talk about how people experimented with ergot medicinally, including historical midwife use around labor and delivery, and how modern medicine still uses ergot-inspired synthetic compounds in tightly controlled doses. Along the way, we chat about serotonin biology, migraine treatments, medication safety, and why “natural” doesn't automatically mean safe. We even close with a brief discussion of the most famous semi-synthetic ergot alkaloid of all: LSD, and what its origin story says about the thin boundary between toxin and therapy.If you like science that connects the lab, the clinic, and the farm field, subscribe, share this episode with a friend, and leave a review.

We're talking about something we literally can't live without—air. More specifically, the quality of the air inside our homes. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Americans spend about 90% of their time indoors, and indoor air can contain pollutant levels that are often 2 to 5 times higher than outdoor air.  Think about that. The place where we sleep, work, exercise, and raise our families could be exposing us to allergens, mold spores, volatile organic compounds—also known as VOCs—pet dander, smoke particles, and other pollutants we can't even see. Our guest, Dr. Jaspreet Dhau, Vice President of Research and Development at Molekule and a leading expert in advanced air purification technology, is here to shed light on how poor indoor air quality isn't just about sneezing or stuffy noses. Research shows it can impact respiratory health, aggravate asthma, contribute to fatigue, headaches, and even affect long-term health outcomes. Whether you're dealing with allergies, concerned about wildfire smoke, trying to improve your sleep, or simply looking to create a healthier living environment, this conversation is packed with valuable insights.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Why indoor air quality is emerging as a core pillar of preventative health  The connection between air quality, sleep, and respiratory wellness  Molekule's filtration, PECO that destroys viruses, bacteria, mold, ozone, allergens, and chemicals How advanced air purification technology works beyond traditional filtration Ways that listeners can protect themselves and their home from harmful allergens  The difference between the Molekule Air Pro and Air Mini+ A few practical steps listeners can take to improve the air in their homes right now   è You can learn more about Molekule's line of air purifiers and humidifiers at: https://molekule.com/ è You can find the links in the show notes at https://ronandlisa.com/podcast/.  è Be sure to leave a review or rating – five stars are always appreciated.

Send us Fan MailThe best thing about good science is that it never fails to surprise you. And the best problem solvers are always willing to be surprised. In 100 episodes of One World, One Health, we've been surprised over and over again by what people have learned as they have set out to solve some of the biggest problems facing the planet – and by how often what everyone thought was going to be the answer was not even close.The first episode of One World, One Health was posted on July 18, 2022, with guest Dr. Kinari Webb. She told us how she set out to save great apes and ended up saving people, too. Webb discovered that in forests in Indonesia, people were cutting down trees to pay for healthcare. She found that to save forests and protect orangutans who lived in the giant hardwoods, her team needed to find a way to improve healthcare access for locals.  It was a classic example of how One Health works – the intertwining of human health with our environment and the animals, forests, crops, microbes, soils, rivers, and oceans that we live among.  We later expanded on the idea of saving forests to protect human health with Dr. Paula Prist, who found that deforestation not only worsens climate change, but also spreads rodents that carry diseases into communities. In four years of One World, One Health podcasts, we've chatted with experts working on a  vaccine that safely protects people against dengue fever; people fighting deadly fungal infections; ways to prevent pandemics; and the unexpected power of grandmothers. We've heard a lot about the factors that lead to the rise and spread of antimicrobial resistance – also known as AMR or drug-resistant superbugs. We've discussed how antibiotics may save lives until they are used too frequently; the counterintuitive impact of feeding them to farm animals; and how this problem affects everyone in different ways, even the tiniest of babies.  We have also looked for ways to prevent the spread of drug resistance, such as the careful use of drugs, weaning the food industry off overuse of antibiotics, vaccination, and potential new drugs. We've even chatted about some AMR mysteries, like the case of the killer eye drops. Listen to our review of the highlights of 100 episodes of One World, One Health, with host Maggie Fox, and find out what we found that matters the most in solving some of the world's most pressing crises.

Send us Fan MailSometimes the best medicine is just listening. We've found this over and over again in this podcast – doctors, public health workers, ecologists and other people working in the One Health field struggle to solve some seemingly complicated problem, and then find it's pretty straightforward when they stop and really listen to the people they're trying to help. Whether it's parents worried about vaccines harming their children; residents suspicious of foreigners who say they want to help screen for a new disease that's spreading, or farmers struggling to work with veterinarians to keep their livestock healthy, people all have their own expertise, experience, and motivation. The so-called experts need to pay attention. Dr. Eri Togami learned some of this working in Rwanda, Tanzania, Cambodia, and elsewhere. She's a veterinarian and epidemiologist who's now working on her PhD in environmental health at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Whiting School of Engineering. In just one example, Togami says, she assumed farmers whose pigs were affected by a parasitic disease called cysticercosis would sell their animals readily. It was only after listening to them at length that she learned the pigs were actually valuable, long-term investments held against hard times. Listen as she chats with One World, One Health about what else she's learning as she works in the classroom and in the field.

Michaela Simoneau, CSIS Fellow, joined the conversation. In the late 1950s, the scaled introduction of sterile male flies — 50 million per week — was a brilliant scientific discovery, combined with a public private partnership with the ranching community. NWS was cleared from the United States by 1966, and from Mexico and Central America by 2006. The barrier began to decay in this decade, a function of migration, illicit cattle trafficking, a decline in the effectiveness of the sterile flies, Covid interruptions, and complacency and bureaucratic inertia. NWS has now arrived in Texas and New Mexico. The race is now fully on to restore control. We need an "Operation Warp Speed" mentality to advance multiple technological innovations, diplomacy, financing, a massive expansion of flies — perhaps as high as one billion per week.

Send us Fan MailIn this thought-provoking Floc It Friday episode, Rudy Stankowitz takes a step away from chemistry myths, manufacturer sound-offs, and social media debates to explore a topic that has generated considerable discussion in both the pool industry and online communities: natural swimming pools. Drawing from four peer-reviewed scientific studies provided by Professor Charles Gerba, Rudy examines what the current scientific literature actually says about biological water treatment systems, pathogen control, microbial communities, and public health.Before diving into the science, Rudy also shares a personal message recognizing National PTSD Awareness Month, discussing the unseen challenges many industry professionals carry and reminding listeners that they are never alone in their struggles. In This Episode Why natural swimming pools represent a fundamentally different philosophy from traditional disinfected pools  The role of biological treatment systems, regeneration zones, gravel beds, and microbial communities  A review of a documented 2001 German outbreak involving more than 200 illnesses associated with a public nature-like swimming pond  What researchers discovered about swimmer exposure, water ingestion, and viral transmission  The findings of a Canadian risk assessment examining pathogen behavior in natural swimming ponds  How filtration rates, turnover times, and treatment efficiency influence health outcomes  The potential role of UV disinfection and why questions remain about its interaction with biological ecosystems  Research from Spain examining microbial populations and fecal contamination in natural swimming pools  Wildlife as a potential source of contamination in recreational waters  The importance of biofilms and the complex microbial communities that inhabit them  Why cyanobacteria, algae, and aquatic microbiology continue to raise important scientific questions  The challenges of identifying microbial populations without site-specific testing  What a 2024 One Health review reveals about algae, cyanobacteria, recreational water quality, and public health  The difference between visible water quality and the unseen biological processes occurring beneath the surface  Why scientific uncertainty is not a weakness, but a critical part of the scientific process Key TakeawayThe current scientific literature does not conclude that natural swimming pools are inherently unsafe, nor does it suggest that all questions surrounding their operation have been answered. Instead, the research consistently points toward the need for continued study, monitoring, challenge testing, and a deeper understanding of the biological communities responsible for water treatment. As Rudy emphasizes throughout the episode, science advances not by defending positions, but by asking better questions. Topics Discussed Natural swimming pools  Biological water treatment  Recreational water health risks  Pathogen control  Biofilms  Cyanobacteria  Algae ecology  Public health  Water quality monitoring  Environmental microbiology  Charles Gerba  Risk assessment  One Health research Mentioned During the Episode Professor Charles Gerba  Canadian Natural Swimming Pool Risk Assessment  German Nature-Like Swimming Pond Outbreak Investigation  Spanish Natural Swimming Pool Microbial Study  2024 One Health Review on Algae and Recreational Waters  National PTSD Awareness Month SponsorsThe 2026 Talking Pools Podcast Pool Industry Mentor Award is proudly supported by: BlueRay XL  LaMotte Company  Revved Up Apparel  Aqua Comfort Water Group Research on Natural Pools https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QpahWoVh3DDoNPwdw3oFsnbmUEj_umrS/view?usp=sharingConnect With Talking Pools

A virus rarely “comes out of nowhere.” More often, we build the bridge it crosses. We're talking One Health through two vivid case studies, Machupo virus and Zika virus, and the shared thread connecting them: land use change and the human decisions that reshape ecosystems faster than they can adapt.First, we break down Machupo, a New World arenavirus that causes Bolivian hemorrhagic fever. We walk through how spillover happens from a rodent reservoir, why the early symptoms can look like so many other infections, and why basic questions about travel history and animal exposure can change everything when a clinician is determining a diagnosis. Then we zoom out to the bigger drivers: Bolivia's mid-century land reform, land clearance, deforestation, and how agricultural practices and predator loss can boost rodent populations and increase human exposure to them.Next, we shift to Zika, a flavivirus spread by Aedes mosquitoes that became headline news once it reached the Americas. We talk global travel and trade, why Zika felt “new” even though it wasn't, and the public health stakes of congenital complications such as microcephaly. We also dive into  how humans create environments mosquitoes thrive in like tires, plant pots, buckets, and other containers that create breeding sites right alongside our homes, plus how climate variation can push mosquito ranges into new regions.If you care about outbreak prevention, environmental health, deforestation, and the real-world mechanics of zoonotic spillover and vector-borne disease, this conversation is for you.

Send us Fan MailWe sit down with Dr. Lynn Pezzanite to explore a promising angle on aging-related equine osteoarthritis (OA): cellular senescence, the pro-inflammatory state where cells release a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) that can amplify damage inside tissues over time.We walk through why horses are such a valuable One Health model for osteoarthritis research and why this team compared synovial fluid cells from the joint with peripheral blood mononuclear cells from circulation. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, the study teases apart immune and cellular heterogeneity that bulk methods can blur. One of the most striking takeaways is the compartment split: senescence-associated pathways can be down in peripheral blood yet up in synovial cells, suggesting the joint environment may create a more intense, specialized senescent phenotype.We also dig into the immune cell story, including why dendritic cells and gamma delta T cells keep showing up as important across both chronic natural OA and early post-traumatic OA work. Then we shift to what this could mean clinically: the promise and cautions around senescence-targeted therapies and the practical case for local intra-articular delivery. Finally, we talk translational hurdles like equine-specific dosing and safety, plus the next research steps to connect senescence burden with OA pain and treatment response.If you care about equine lameness, osteoarthritis biomarkers, and the future of disease-modifying OA therapy, subscribe, share this with a colleague, and leave us a rating and review wherever you listen.AJVR article: https://doi.org/10.2460/ajvr.25.09.0343INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ®  OR AJVR ® ?JAVMA ® : https://avma.org/JAVMAAuthorsAJVR ® : https://avma.org/AJVRAuthorsFOLLOW US:JAVMA ® :Facebook: Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association - JAVMA | FacebookInstagram: JAVMA (@avma_javma) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: JAVMA (@AVMAJAVMA) / Twitter AJVR ® : Facebook: American Journal of Veterinary Research - AJVR | FacebookInstagram: AJVR (@ajvroa) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: AJVR (@AJVROA) / TwitterJAVMA ®  and AJVR ®  LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/avma-journals

In this episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, use the current Hantavirus conversation as a jumping-off point for a bigger issue affecting every veterinary team: public trust in science. This is not a panic episode, and it is not about predicting another COVID. Instead, it is a practical conversation about science skepticism, vaccine hesitancy, misinformation, and what all of that may mean for veterinary medicine going forward. Ernie and Beckie talk through how fear spreads, why social media noise often drowns out calm expert guidance, and why veterinary professionals may increasingly find themselves answering client questions tied to public health, animals, and trust. They also explore the role of vet teams as credible, steady voices in a confusing information landscape. If you work in a vet clinic, this episode will help you think about client communication, One Health awareness, and how to respond when public uncertainty spills into everyday veterinary practice. #VeterinaryMedicine #VetMed #VeterinaryViewfinder #ScienceCommunication #VaccineHesitancy

Send us Fan MailIt's a rare piece of good news. A single-dose dengue vaccine developed in Brazil as part of an international collaboration protected people against at least two strains of the virus for five years or longer, and did so safely. The vaccine was already being tested across Brazil and the findings helped boost confidence in its use. “This is a big deal,” says Dr. Andre Siqueira, Head of the Dengue Global Program at the Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative (DNDI).  Dr. Siqueira, who is also an Infectious Diseases Consultant at Brazil's Instituto Nacional de Infectologia Evandro Chagas, a hospital that is part of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz), helped develop the vaccine. He chatted with One World, One Health about the work in 2024. The new vaccine worked almost perfectly to keep people from being hospitalized with severe dengue symptoms, Dr. Siqueira and the team reported in Nature Medicine.  That's a big deal. Dengue can cause terrible symptoms, including severe abdominal pain, internal bleeding, severe muscle aches, and long term fatigue. From January 2025 to January 2026, dengue killed more than 4,000 people. The only other dengue vaccines currently available are a two-dose formula made by Japanese manufacturer Takeda and Sanofi's Dengvaxia, which the company is discontinuing because of a lack of demand. In this episode, Siqueira updates host Maggie Fox about the latest findings on the new vaccine's efficacy and its rollout in Brazil.

"We might think access to veterinary care is just an issue for low-income families—but the reality is, it affects people across income levels, for very different reasons." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and the Feline Behavior Summit 2026. Access to veterinary care is one of the most pressing—and complex—issues facing pet families today. In this episode of the Community Cats Podcast, host Stacy LeBaron sits down with researcher Claire Shuch, PhD, to unpack the latest findings from a groundbreaking national study on barriers to veterinary care. Drawing from her work with the University of Tennessee Knoxville's Program for Pet Health Equity, Claire shares insights from the updated Access to Veterinary Care: Barriers and Insights from Pet Families report. This research builds on the foundational 2018 study and reveals how economic pressures, workforce shortages, and lingering pandemic effects continue to shape how—and whether—families can care for their pets. Listeners will discover surprising truths about who struggles to access care (hint: it's not just low-income households), why many cats remain unspayed or unvaccinated, and how logistical challenges like scheduling and clinic availability play a major role. The conversation also explores the broader "One Health" framework, highlighting how human, animal, and environmental health are deeply interconnected. For community cat advocates, this episode offers valuable context on intake trends, stray adoption patterns, and opportunities for intervention through education and accessible services. Claire also paints a compelling vision of a more integrated future—where human and animal healthcare services are co-located or mobile, reaching underserved communities more effectively. Whether you're a rescuer, veterinarian, policymaker, or passionate cat lover, this episode provides both data-driven insights and hopeful possibilities for improving care access nationwide.

On parle de prématurité lorsqu'un enfant nait avant 8 mois et demi de grossesse, soit 37 semaines d'aménorrhée. En fonction de l'âge gestationnel, on parle de grande ou très grande prématurité. Selon le degré de prématurité, ces bébés peuvent présenter une immaturité des organes qui ne sont pas prêts à fonctionner en dehors de l'utérus. Cela peut entrainer des complications, avec des degrés de sévérité variables. Selon l'OMS, environ 900 000 enfants meurent chaque année des complications de la prématurité.   Comment éviter ces naissances trop précoces ? Quelles peuvent en être les causes ? Quelle prise en charge est nécessaire pour ces bébés ? Comment sauver les prématurés dans les contextes sanitaires précaires ?  Neuf mois : c'est le terme normal d'une grossesse, soit 41 semaines entre la date des dernières règles et celle de la naissance. Avant 37 semaines, l'enfant sera considéré comme prématuré, avec des fragilités qui vont varier d'un bébé à l'autre. Son faible poids, ainsi que l'immaturité de certains organes vont accroître le risque de complications. Ces complications de la prématurité, elles constituent d'après l'OMS la cause principale de mortalité chez les enfants de moins de 5 ans. Sensibiliser pour limiter les accouchements précoces Les indicateurs de mortalité néonatale sont étroitement liés au niveau de développement et de qualité de l'offre de santé : le devenir des enfants prématurés, c'est donc une affaire médicale, mais aussi un problème de santé publique qui se traduit par un défi familial, pour les parents, dont les attentes sont bouleversées.  En fonction du terme de la gestation, plusieurs niveaux de prématurité se distinguent:   Prématurité moyenne : de sept à huit mois de grossesse (32ᵉ et 36ᵉ semaine d'aménorrhée révolue)  Grande prématurité : de six mois à sept mois de grossesse (28ᵉ à 32ᵉ semaine aménorrhée).  Très grande prématurité : en deçà de six mois de grossesse (soit avant 28 semaines.)  Les conditions de naissance et l'accès aux soins ont une importance cruciale pour la survie de ces bébés très fragiles. D'où l'importance de prévenir, de limiter – dans la mesure du possible – certains risques évitables, qui vont provoquer le déclenchement de l'accouchement : Sensibiliser et dépister les facteurs de risque (maladies chroniques, grossesses rapprochées, grossesse précoce ou tardive, conditions socio-économiques difficiles, travail prolongé...)  Assurer un bon accompagnement de la grossesse et des soins prénatals de qualité  Et en cas de naissance avant terme, pouvoir mettre en place une prise en charge adaptée, en fonction du contexte sanitaire. Cette prise en charge implique également l'accompagnement des jeunes parents, confrontés à une inquiétude extrême, des émotions et ressentis qui peuvent compliquer le processus d'attachement.  Avec: Dr Amina Yamgnane, gynécologue-obstétricienne, médecine fœtale. Ex-cheffe de service de la maternité de l'hôpital américain à Neuilly-sur-Seine en région parisienne, fondatrice de La Clinique des Femmes, à Paris, autrice du livre Prendre soin des femmes chez Flammarion  Dr. Mohamed Abass, pédiatre et néonatologue au Centre hospitalier national de Nouakchott, en Mauritanie   Reportage d'Inès Emprin  ► En fin d'émission, nous parlons du sommet One Health qui se tient aujourd'hui à Lyon. Quels sont les enjeux de ce sommet réunissant des chefs d'État du monde entier pour accélérer la mise en place de cette approche multidisciplinaire reposant sur les liens entre la santé animale, la santé humaine et l'environnement ?

Send us Fan MailImagine a life form identical to your own, only backwards.At first, it would look normal. But just like when you try to use a mirror to read text on a page, it doesn't quite translate. For some reason, all of the DNA of life on Earth is right-handed. The double helix of DNA that codes for all life on the planet spirals to the right – a quality called chirality. But, in theory, scientists could build cells based on DNA that spirals to the left. These mirror cells could defy some of the rules of biology. While it's not clear how they might be useful, several labs sought to examine the possibility. Some of the U.S. scientists who took a look were startled by the implications and put together a team of 35 experts who studied the risks.Mirror bacteria, in particular, scared them. Like an invasive plant that local animals don't recognize as potential food, mirror bacteria could evade the immune systems of animals and people and cause life-threatening infections, they reported. They could wreak havoc on crops and even on entire ecosystems. The experts' December 2024 report recommended halting all work on mirror cells.In this One World, One Health episode, one member of that committee, Dr. Jassi Pannu, explains some of what the team found. Dr. Pannu is a Senior Scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Environmental Health and Engineering at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Listen as she chats with host Maggie Fox about the potential risks of mirror bacteria and how scientists must voluntarily stop this research.
