Parkinson's Disease affects around a million people in the United States. And that number is on the rise, in part because our population is getting older. Dr. Claire Henchcliffe, chair of neurology at the University of California, Irvine, is one of the scientists at the forefront of Parkinson's research. She's working toward new treatment options for Parkinson's, including recent discoveries about the potential use of stem cells. Science correspondent Jon Hamilton dives into this research — and even a future where scientists can prevent the disease altogether — on the show with Henchcliffe. Interested in more on the future of brain science?

To read more of Derek's reporting on GLP-1 drugs, you can subscribe to his Substack here. GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Zepbound don't just help with Type 2 diabetes and weight loss. They seem to curb alcohol, cocaine, and tobacco use among addicts. In some studies, they prevent strokes, heart attacks, chronic kidney disease, sleep apnea, and Parkinson's disease. They're associated with a lower risk of several cancers, including pancreatic cancer and multiple myeloma. Arthritic patients on the drugs experienced relief from knee pain that was “on par with opioid drugs.” A small study found that they reduce migraine headaches by 50 percent. And emerging research suggests they might even slow the rate of memory loss among people diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Is all of this real? And if it's real, how is one drug doing so many different things? And if it is doing all those things, why shouldn't we be developing versions of the drug for just about everyone? Today we have two guests: David D'Alessio, chief of endocrinology and metabolism at the Duke University School of Medicine; and Randy Seeley, a professor of surgery, internal medicine, and nutritional sciences at the University of Michigan. We talk about how these drugs work—why they seem to do everything—and how our understanding of them could make them better, more effective, more broadly useful. If you have questions, observations, or ideas for future episodes, email us at PlainEnglish@Spotify.com. Host: Derek Thompson Guests: David D'Alessio and Randy Seeley Producer: Devon Baroldi Disclosure: Dr. Seeley has received research support from several pharmaceutical companies, including Eli Lilly, Diasome, and Amgen.

In this episode of The Brainy Business podcast, Melina Palmer revisits the concept of bikeshedding, a phenomenon that leads us to obsess over trivial details while neglecting the more significant issues that drive progress. Originally discussed in episode 99, Melina brings this foundational topic back into focus as we navigate the complexities of decision-making in a rapidly changing environment. Bikeshedding, a term coined by Cyril Northcote Parkinson, highlights our tendency to spend excessive time on inconsequential tasks—like perfecting a logo color—at the expense of critical decisions that can impact our success. Melina explains how this behavior can hinder our productivity and offers practical strategies to overcome it. She discusses the relationship between bikeshedding and Parkinson's Law of Triviality, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing meaningful work over distractions. In this episode: Understand the concept of bike shedding and how it manifests in everyday decision-making. Learn about Parkinson's Law of Triviality and its implications for productivity. Discover practical questions to ask yourself to break free from bikeshedding and focus on what truly matters. Explore the significance of setting clear goals to combat procrastination and maintain momentum. Gain insights into how to balance feedback from others while staying true to your own objectives.

How Great Businesses Become Ineffective BureaucraciesEver stood in line for a passport or permit and thought, “How did it get this bad?” Bureaucracy doesn't start broken—it creeps in. In this episode, we unpack why even great companies calcify: Pournelle's Iron Law (organizations drift to serving themselves), and Parkinson's Law (headcount grows 5–7% a year regardless of workload). Wikiquote+1You'll hear how complexity multiplies—extra layers, approvals, and legacy tech—until speed dies. (Yes, a major UK rail operator still uses fax to reach crews.) And why some governments deliberately keep paper ballots for auditability: simple systems are often the most resilient. The Guardian+1Then we get practical: map the customer journey with value-stream mapping, replace approvals with “freedom within a framework” (think Netflix's culture), flatten spans & layers, and run a quarterly “kill-a-rule” review. You'll leave with an audit checklist to keep decisions close to customers—and bureaucracy out of your business.

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan sits down with Susan Ruediger, Founder and Chief Mission Officer of the CMT Research Foundation (CMTRF), and Laura MacNeill, the organization's CEO. Together, they explore how patient-led research is revolutionizing drug development and catalyzing billion-dollar outcomes. Susan shares the remarkable story of CMTRF's $128,000 seed investment in DTX Pharma that led to a $1 billion Novartis acquisition — a masterclass in strategic risk-taking and venture philanthropy. Laura explains how CMTRF's unique “go-out-of-business” mission drives urgency, focus, and impact, while also inspiring other nonprofits to adopt similar models. The conversation dives deep into storytelling's role in galvanizing donors, the importance of milestones and reinvestment, and how rare disease foundations can unlock breakthroughs for broader neurodegenerative diseases like ALS, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's. Whether you're a biotech leader, investor, or nonprofit executive, this episode offers actionable lessons on focus, partnerships, and creating outsized impact with limited resources.TakeawaysPatient-led research can de-risk and accelerate drug development.$128K seed funding led to a $1B Novartis acquisition.CMTRF uses a venture-philanthropy model with milestone-based funding.Mission: fund treatments, find a cure, close the foundation.Storytelling drives awareness, donations, and partnerships.Early investments keep promising science alive.Biotech partnerships share risk and leverage expertise.Novartis validated CMT as a major market opportunity.Rare disease focus offers faster FDA pathways.Staying laser-focused means saying no to distractions.Chapters00:00 Intro & Guest Welcome01:20 From Grassroots Donations to Billion-Dollar Deals02:30 Understanding CMT and Its Impact05:00 Finding the Right Delivery Vehicle for Drugs07:40 The $128K Bet That Changed Everything09:50 Other Success Stories & Market Signaling13:00 The Venture-Philanthropy Model Explained16:30 The Power of Milestones and Flexibility18:45 Reinvestment and Sustainable Funding21:30 Role of Storytelling and Strategy in Movement Building26:10 Velocity Campaign & Raising $20M27:25 Why Biotechs Care About Rare Diseases31:50 CMT as a Gateway Indication for Neurodegenerative Disease33:30 Staying Focused and Saying No38:30 The Drug Development Lifecycle and Staying Mission-Aligned42:10 How to Get Involved and Follow CMTRF's Work45:10 Personal & Business Advice for Leaders48:30 Favorite Books and Final Thoughts52:00 Closing Remarks and Call to ActionSusan Ruediger's Social Media Links:https://www.linkedin.com/in/susan-ruediger/Laura MacNeill's Social Media Links:https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-macneill-m-b-a-97633732/CMT Research Foundation's Website:https://cmtrf.org/Resources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

I've been eager to share with all of you in podcast land some important information and history about what I believe is one of the key drivers in helping fulfill the Michael J. Fox Foundation's mission to cure Parkinson's disease. The Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), launched in 2010, is a groundbreaking study involving people both with and without Parkinson's. It gathers data over time to help researchers better understand how Parkinson's starts, how it progresses, and — most importantly — how to stop it. Sound important? It absolutely is. And it's still going strong, continually recruiting new participants to join its large and growing community of volunteers. The more data we collect through PPMI, the faster we can accelerate the path to a cure. Maggie Kuhl and Alyssa O'Grady are at the heart of this effort — overseeing the data, bringing in new participants, and tracking the initiative's progress every step of the way. Listen to what the experts say about how you can contribute to the solution to the Parkinson's puzzle. Thank you to our sponsor – Boston Scientific, the maker of Vercise Genus, a Deep Brain Stimulation or DBS system.

Gene Mack, CEO and President of Gain Therapeutics, is combining AI-powered drug discovery with the development of allosteric modulators, drugs that bind to unique sites on proteins. The company's AI platform, Magellan, is crucial for accelerating drug discovery by reducing the time for computational screening of potential drug compounds.  Their lead compound is showing promising results as a potential disease-modifying therapy for Parkinson's disease, aiming to halt the progression of the disease rather than just treating symptoms. Gene explains, "So allosteric modulators of protein, it's a bit of a word salad, but what we're trying to achieve here is finding unique binding sites on proteins that are sort of away from the active site of that protein." "So, a lot of physics calculations go into these binding site calculations. The idea is to complete these quickly during the screening of hundreds or thousands of compounds. This process takes 10 to 15 minutes to run a set of computations and determine if a particular molecule is a fit for a specific protein. If that takes 10 or 15 minutes per compound, it's not a very big deal to go to that library if you need to get through billions, trillions of those compounds, and you need that computational speed to really fire up." "We are able to speed up those calculations from, let's say, 10 minutes to milliseconds. You can screen through much larger numbers of compounds and potentially even construct new molecules that are not known to the public domain, which would be a real key innovation." "What we think we have in our lead program, which is GT-02287, another molecule that was discovered through our application of Magellan. What we hope we have in GT-02287 is a disease-modifying approach to Parkinson's. Up until now, the only available treatments for Parkinson's are really just focused on the symptoms and allaying the severity of the symptoms." #Parkinsons #ParkinsonsDisease #AI #DrugDiscovery #GAINtherapeutics #DiseaseModification gaintherapeutics.com Download the transcript here

He outlines both near-term and future applications of powerful quantum sensors in pathology and laboratory medicine. He provides a key example of how these sensors could enable a new type of nanoscale NMR spectroscopy, capable of measuring magnetic fields from biomolecules to non-invasively probe their chemical information and signaling pathways. In the near future, he points to diagnostic tools, currently being developed by companies, that use the unique optical signatures of quantum sensors for highly sensitive, background-free protein detection in small volumes. For the long term, he envisions the technology as a "field opener" for studying protein aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.Peter outlines how AI can be applied to analyze complex data from sensors that respond to multiple environmental factors and highlights the challenge of bringing together experts from quantum technology, biophysics, and medicine who can "talk each other's language.” He also touches on how the use of synthetic data in quantum sensing is a "completely under-appreciated" area with the potential to analyze complex environmental properties that would otherwise be missed by looking at single types of measurements. To advance the field from academic proofs-of-concept to clinical tools, he stresses the need for collaboration with academic and industry partners who can help engineer robust, "turnkey" systems that can be widely tested and used.The University of Pittsburgh Health and Explainable AI podcast is a collaborative initiative between the Health and Explainable AI (HexAI) Research Laboratory in the Department of Health Information Management at the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, and the Computational Pathology and AI Center of Excellence (CPACE), at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.Hosted by Jordan Gass-Pooré, a health and science reporter, this podcast series explores the transformative integration of responsible and explainable artificial intelligence into health informatics, clinical decision-making, and computational medicine. From reshaping diagnostic accuracy to enhancing patient care pathways, we'll highlight how AI is creating new bridges between researchers, clinicians, and healthcare innovators. Led by Ahmad P. Tafti, Hooman Rashidi and Liron Pantanowitz, the HexAI podcast is committed to democratizing knowledge around ethical, explainable, and clinically relevant AI. Through insightful conversations with domain experts, AI practitioners and students will spotlight the latest breakthroughs, discuss real-world applications, and unpack the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in responsible AI in healthcare. So whether you're a student, practitioner, researcher, or policymaker, this is your gateway to the future of AI-powered healthcare

In this week's episode hosts Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS and Claire McLean, PT, DPT, NCS discuss how Claire is introducing a new exercise class at Rogue called "Stretch and Flow." This class was designed to meet members' requests for a gentler, more restorative exercise experience. The class will combine guided meditation, slow power moves, and breath work, offering a unique approach for people with Parkinson's and varying mobility levels. In the show Claire will explain the structure of the class as well as the rationale for offering it in this way. She emphasizes that while the class is less intense, it's not meant to replace high-intensity workouts but to complement them. With both in-person and online options, the class aims to provide accessible, mindful movement for Rogue members. The inspiration came from member feedback and Claire's observations about the benefits of meditation and breath work for managing Parkinson's symptoms. By offering a class that focuses on slower, more intentional movement, Rogue hopes to support members' overall wellness and provide a recovery-focused option that can help reduce freezing and dyskinesia. We'll also discuss the process for adding a new class, how you know when it's the right time or if a new class isn't going to cut it as well as how to decide when to offer it during the schedule. Claire is optimistic about the class's potential and looks forward to seeing how members respond to this new approach to exercise and wellness.

Tim and Steve take a look at the power of small, steady improvements by exploring Kaizen and Parkinson's Law — the idea that work expands to fill the time we give it. They discuss why setting deadlines (and beating them) is a game-changer, freeing up more space for the things that really matter. They share real-life stories, from martial arts lessons to a friend's passion for restoring cars, showing how dedication to little steps can lead to big results. Listeners are encouraged to think about their own routines, how they spend their time, and the way everyday choices add up to long-term growth. It's a reminder that whether in training, personal projects, or daily life, consistent effort and conscious choices move us forward.

Most of us can agree: music is awesome. Regardless of which songs speak to you, music probably plays an important role in your life. The question is, what makes music so powerful? Why does a particular combination of sounds and rhythms grab us and affect us in the way that it does? And is it true that music can help heal patients with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, PTSD, chronic pain, and more? To help us understand what we're learning about the neuroscience of music and how it can heal and enrich our lives, we're speaking with Daniel Levitin. He's a musician and a producer as well as a neuroscientist and bestselling author.

You may know Philip Yancey as the bestselling author of What's So Amazing About Grace?, Where Is God When It Hurts?, and The Jesus I Never Knew. We've even had him on the show a few times to talk about these books and more. For decades, his writing has guided Christians who are wrestling with disappointment, doubt, and suffering. But in recent years, his own life has required deeper study into such things. In this episode, Philip Yancey joins Russell Moore for an honest conversation about suffering, lament, and the God who meets us in our pain. Yancey opens up about his own story, from the trauma of losing his father to living with cancer and Parkinson's. He reflects on how those experiences have shaped his faith and why simplistic religious answers so often do more harm than good. Together, they talk about what the Book of Job does—and doesn't—say about suffering, and why Jesus didn't “solve” pain during his earthly ministry. Yancey explains why lament is not only permitted but essential, and what it means for the church to be a place of comfort rather than clichés.Plus: what surprising things led him to see the graciousness of God before writing the book(s) on it. If you've been sitting in the silence of God, or are grappling with the problem of pain in your own life, you may find comfort in this conversation.

As Chicago suffers a violent, deadly Labor Day weekend, Mayor Brandon Johnson vows with an emergency order to refuse cooperation with ICE or other federal law enforcement efforts to clean up the Windy City. JB Pritzker calls the President's plan for a 30 day surge in Chicago policing a "Trump-led invasion."  Robert Mueller's Parkinson's diagnosis (that he's known about for 4 years) piques interest in whether the Russia collusion investigator is ducking out of testifying before House Oversight. 

When Martha's husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's, she didn't just seek answers—she built them. She dove into chemistry, microbiology, and genetics… then founded two companies to fight chronic disease at the root. Now with NIH grants, patents, and a TEDx under her belt—she's rewriting the story of gut health.
