Jennifer Keeley and Mary Whittenhall, experienced nurse practitioners in the field of pulmonary hypertension, discuss the management of cough in patients receiving inhaled therapies for pulmonary hypertension and interstitial lung disease. #GossamerBioPartner #sponsored This Special Edition episode is sponsored by Gossamer Bio. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: My name's Jennifer Keeley. I'm a nurse practitioner and I practice in a large academic institution in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Allegheny Health Network, specifically Allegheny General Hospital. I am a nurse practitioner there and have been in the clinic over 10 years, and in the PH space as a nurse practitioner for over 15 years, as a registered nurse for almost 20 years. So, I have a lot of experience and I'm really excited to be here today to talk about inhaled therapies and cough. Mary Whittenhall, MSN: My name is Mary Whittenhall. I'm also a nurse practitioner. I am currently an advanced practice provider at Pulmonary and Sleep Associates in East Providence, Rhode Island. I've been in pulmonary hypertension for about 11 years now. In that time, I have worked in a variety of settings, both inpatient and outpatient, managing patients with pulmonary vascular disease, and have also touched upon patients with interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension. I get very excited when I hear about new opportunities for our PH patients. I think a lot about even when I started in pulmonary hypertension and the therapies that were available to our patients. Many of these therapies had been around for a little bit of time. But also something that I think is extremely exciting is that there's just been a rapid progression in development of therapies. And now, with the focus of looking at these therapies as potentially disease modifying, not necessarily slowing the progression of disease. With the advent of all of these new therapies, there become more options for our patients, as well. Often, patients can't tolerate some of the medications that we have due to side effects and despite lots of work to manage these side effects, the patients are not always successful. One of the great things being involved in an academic center is that we have the ability to help link patients to cutting edge research, particularly looking at a new drug that is an inhaled therapy that has shown significant promise in improving the lives of patients with pulmonary hypertension. As a part of the PH community, we all do quite a bit of networking with each other, as well as with our patients and other colleagues in the space. In that time, we did network regarding the study and have participated in some activities where we're looking at the data from the Phase 2 part of this trial and then also looking at some of the side effect management related to the medication, which seemingly is well tolerated. However, for some patients it may not come extremely easy. I think that's where the role of the nurse or the advanced practice provider really comes in this space is that we have a real strong dedication to helping educate patients about ways to manage these side effects. We want patients to be able to continue with therapies. We don't want them to say, "Well, this isn't working for me, it's time to move on." I think that we have a lot of strategies and a lot of experience with trying to help patients really figure out the best way to manage these things and to be confident that they can continue on with obviously the biggest benefit of improving their pulmonary vascular disease. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: We actually met at an advisory board last year. It was an advisory board consistent of registered nurses and nurse practitioners who, just like Mary and myself, have vast experience with patients and therapies, not just in the inhaled space, but more conventional pulmonary vasodilator medications that have been used in our patients for many, many years. As Mary had suggested before, when we start to think about newer agents, many, many of them are not the conventional pulmonary vasodilator medications, but disease modifying agents. Now, we've acquired an armamentarium of medications. So, inhaled delivery is just a really great option to avoid systemic side effects on top of each other. Our PH patients today, many of them are on more than three therapies, many of them are on four or even more therapies, so the delivery of the medication is just one aspect. When we talk about cough and side effects, I like to think about it and explain to my patient when we talk about side effects, particularly cough, to imagine a Venn diagram with cough being in the middle and what affects cough. You see this outward circle, how we deliver it, what kind of device we deliver it in. The drug, how small, large are the particle size? Is it easy enough to use for our patients? The formulation, is it dry powdered versus inhaled aerosolized? And then finally, just the patient themselves. What's their background? What type of PAH do they have? So, we can talk a little bit more about this, but just to get us started, this is how this developed and we had a lovely advisory board meeting with seralutinib and Gossamer Bio, and this was the outcome of it. We produced a lovely poster. This is a conversation if you will, that Mary and I are going to have based on what we talked about and the poster production, that came out of that wonderful advisory board. Mary Whittenhall, MSN: Inhaled therapies are unique in a way in that they actually have direct access to the lungs. So, when you think of an oral medication, an oral medication needs to be digested in the gut and sometimes that systemic digestion takes a while. Additionally, it's also often that we see patients that have more systemic side effects when we're using an oral formulation. Intravenous or subcutaneous formulations of these medications tend to cause pretty strong systemic side effects for patients, and there tends to be a lot of management that we need to do to help make these side effects more tolerable. For most of our patients, I say to them, "You're going to think I'm cruel because I don't really want these side effects to go away." In a way, we look at them almost as if you have a cup and your cup is full of water and after the top of the water hits the rim of the cup, then the water starts to spill over onto the sides of the cup. I think of other medications that we typically prescribe for patients in that way that when we get that spill over, so to speak, it's an indication that we've actually targeted all of those receptors that we want to help with vasodilation. Now that we're looking at other medications that don't really necessarily look at vasodilation, we're looking more at treating the blood vessels in a different way or affecting the process for which those blood vessels become diseased. I think that the side effects become different and I think they become less. In working with inhaled therapies, as you can imagine, the number one side effect that most patients will complain of is cough. Sometimes we have patients who have an underlying cough already, and that's usually not related to PAH, but in PH-ILD where we now have an FDA indication to use another inhaled therapy, we've seen in treating these patients that baseline cough is something that is extremely problematic for them before they even start therapies. So, trying to find ways to improve that baseline cough, treat any underlying symptoms, things like acid reflux as well, that may cause that, treating seasonal allergies, et cetera, and then, obviously, managing any additional overlapping side effects that may occur because of the new therapy that they're on. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: I think that's a really important part, is to talk with the patient, educate the patient on these inhaled therapies. First and foremost, that cough is almost an expected side effect. These are patients particularly with our interstitial lung disease patients that have PAH, cough is a part of their daily life. It's important to document and ascertain what these patients' baseline cough is. In many, many clinics, particularly pulmonary PAH clinics, and I'm sure much like Mary's, many of my colleagues have recommended using validated cough questionnaires so that we can get a really, really good baseline of what that patient's baseline cough is. Are you coughing at night? Do you have mucus? How long have you been coughing? Does it interfere with the quality of your life? Do you cough at night? Does it keep you up? Does it interrupt your sleep? Those kinds of things that help differentiate acute cough versus chronic cough. Many of these patients cough every day. They also have other inhaled therapies such as our ILD patients that are also on corticosteroids, many of them on inhaled corticosteroid therapy that can thin the oral pharynx, the posterior pharynx, and really affect the degree of nerve innervation in the posterior pharynx in the mouth. So, just really understanding what the patient's baseline cough is and educating them on the fact that cough is likely going to be a side effect with the use of this inhaled therapy. Certainly, as we continue to use the therapy, we would hope that the cough can be mitigated either through some lifestyle modifications, some natural remedies, and even some medical remedies such as bronchodilators. But really teaching the patient about the medication and inherently that this is likely going to induce a cough, but that we have mitigation strategies to help dissipate the cough. I always like to tell my patients also in the clinical trials, particularly the Phase 2 clinical trials that are out there that patients had a lot of cough. The patients on drug that were in most of the Phase 2 clinical trials for seralutinib and even for treprostinil inhaled, 30 to 40% of them experienced cough. But at the same token, the placebo-based patients that did not receive drug in these Phase 2 clinical trials also had a lot of cough. So, what that's telling you is yes, you're going to get probably some more cough, but it's likely not going to be that much or more far advanced than the cough that you're already experiencing. I also think it's important to tell these patients, many, many patients that experienced cough did not stop the medication. Actually, in these Phase 2 clinical trials, very few stop the medication. So, that gives you a really good big picture that we are pretty good at educating our patients how to mitigate cough, and if we aren't, then we should learn how to do so. Mary Whittenhall, MSN: I think it's important for us to set some expectations for patients when we're talking about cough. We've already discussed a bit that cough can happen for people from other things outside of their lung disease, but it's important to also look at what may be causing the cough when we are giving a patient an inhaled therapy. So, any type of inhaled therapy, whether that be a dry powder, a mist, whether that's nebulized or through in actuated inhaler, there are particles inside of that medication as it's going in and those little particles, when your lungs inhale that medication, those particles are penetrating your lungs and your lungs are not accustomed to them being there. It's almost as if your lungs are saying, "I don't recognize this. I don't know why this is here," and it may feel like it's an irritant, so you may start coughing as a result of that, but the cough is not necessarily a bad thing. Those particles are there, and the job is to essentially help deliver the medicine to penetrate that lung tissue and then for your body then to absorb the medicine. Your airways and your blood vessels inside of your lungs are extremely close to each other. So, when you inhale that medication, those little blood vessels are also right next to where those airways are, and then that is how those blood vessels then absorb that medication, because they're so close to the site at which those particles come into your lungs. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: I think this is an important concept to understand. They choose the form of delivery based on the goal of delivering the most medication efficiently to the distal bronchioles. That's where the disease is. It's in the distal arteries. So, trying to formulate how we get these very powerful, oftentimes disease modifying agents into the periphery of the lungs can be very challenging. Dry powdered inhaler is one form that the variability of delivery is not as dispersed as an aerosolized. So, it's more efficient delivery to the place where the medication needs to work the best, and that's in the distal periphery of the lungs. Unfortunately, one thing you have to deal with is that oftentimes these medications, dry powdered medications, not just in the PH space, but there's a lot of other dry powdered inhalers in the COPD space, as well. Oftentimes, what happens is these powdered particles get dispersed extra thoracically. So, they get dispersed in the oral mucosa, in the posterior pharynx, on the way down into the stomach. That's wherein we have to deal with mitigating side effects. The biggest side effect of these particles, even though they're very small, is cough. So, technique comes into play. Mitigating things to coat the posterior pharynx come into play. Re-education comes into play. Show me again how you're doing this inhalation, because I don't think that you're holding this okay. In one instance, I had a patient that was inhaling dry powdered inhaler with the medication right out of the refrigerator. So, the medication was cold. It was clumping at the back of her throat. All of these things really take into consideration how we most efficiently get the medicine to these pulmonary arterial hypertension patients where their disease is oftentimes very difficult to get to, and other forms of medications that are systemic, orals, parenterals that have first pass metabolism, and so you're going to get more side effects from those medications. So, I always teach my patients, "Hey, we're a couple steps ahead because we're bypassing the type of metabolism that you get with orals and even parenterals." Mary Whittenhall, MSN: There are so many challenges that these patients face. Oftentimes, patients have never been sick before they develop this, and now we're putting them on multiple therapies, multiple modalities, telling them that there's going to be side effects and they need to learn how to manage them. It's certainly a lot to handle. But I think one of the best things that we have in our PH community is that we really work so hard to partner with the patients and their loved ones and forming this relationship, fostering that relationship as time goes on, I believe that these patients really do trust us and that what we're telling them is things are going to be okay. We are going to be there by your side. We're not going to give you this medicine and then say, "See you in six months. Hope everything goes well." We're really going to be working with them. In some cases in my specialty clinic, we have nurses, we have a pharmacist, a pharmacy tech, and then our advanced practice providers that check in with these patients quite regularly. We are actually taking the initiative to reach out to them versus the patient who may be having trouble advocating for themselves or feeling like, "Really, I don't want to be a pain, but this is challenging for me." We are really in touch with them, and that connection also helps to keep patients on therapy. So, what are some of the specific techniques to manage or mitigate cough? This is something that was a real hot topic at our last advisory meeting. We put together a bunch of folks in the room who deal with other inhaled therapies and patients that have cough and said, "Well, what do you tell patients to do?" First and foremost is to look at any other potentially underlying conditions that may be causing cough and ensure that treatment of those underlying conditions is optimized. I think cough is actually the number one referral for any type of pulmonary practice, but it is a really, really broad differential when it comes down to it. We obviously look first at things like environmental factors. If this could be seasonal allergies, then we try treating patients with antihistamines. Perhaps some of those are intranasal, as well, that may help with some things like rhinorrhea or post nasal drip. Acid reflux is actually a huge, huge reason for cough. Many patients say, 'Well, I don't get acid reflux. I don't feel that burning in my chest after I eat," but come to find out that it can actually be a silent trigger. So, treating patients with medicines that help to reduce acid or suppress acid will oftentimes help with that cough. On top of that, when we're dealing with patients that are on inhalers and now we're adding another inhaled therapy. I find that for some patients that are on actual inhalers that sometimes they do better with nebulized treatments. The nebulized treatments are slower, and may have a bit of a better penetration into the lungs and the patients tend to like it. It is one of those things that you do need to be compliant with in order to really see the benefits to it. I will say that oftentimes, again, partnering with the patient, giving them specific instructions about how to do all of this, we can really see some improvement to those symptoms. Then, there's just basic over-the counter measures and precautions, things like making sure that when you're eating that you're not laying down at least for 60 minutes after you've been eating. If you do have acid reflux, trying to sleep with two pillows or a wedge pillow, that can help to keep the head of your bed elevated. Some of our patients have those really fancy adjustable beds that are also quite helpful for that. I think that sometimes things like basic cough drops actually can be quite wonderful and helpful. Drinking very cold or very warm water or tea, adding some honey to that if a patient isn't diabetic, things like that tend to really help with cough. We reinforce these measures when we start therapies like this. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: In terms of mitigation, I think it's really important on technique. This is why, as Mary had alluded to, it's so important to follow up closely with these patients, particularly our elderly patients who sometimes don't, if they have connective tissue disease or scleroderma, have a lot of good fine motor coordination. A couple of things that I wanted to touch on with regards to that… One, these inhalers are typically high resistance, low flow. So, these are not the type of patients that need to be taking in very forceful inhalations with these inhalers and thank goodness, because we're talking about patients that have inflammatory interstitial lung disease, as well as pulmonary vascular disease. So their degree of inspiratory effort is actually minimal to disperse that medication to the distal pulmonary bronchials. It's equivalent to them taking a deep breath in when you ask them to auscultate their lungs. So it's not a big forceful breath. The other thing is too, a lot of times, sometimes more variability in the disbursement of the drug is better in compliance with some patients. Dry-powdered inhalers, again, do not take a very big forceful effort, but some of them, because they are powder, some of the medication will actually hit the back of the throat as it goes down and can cause some irritation, whereas the nebulized form does have a variability in disbursement and can be more easily tolerated in some. The other issue is the technique itself. Oftentimes, we ask them in some of the inhaled therapies to lower the device itself so that the tongue doesn't protrude and get in the way, because if medication gets on the tongue, the next swallow that they take, that medication is going to hit their posterior pharynx, and they're going to probably cough pretty aggressively. I always start off by telling my patients, "Cough is not a bad thing. It's actually a protective reflex and it's involuntary. So, if you cough, don't actually negate it. Don't think it's a bad thing." It's actually a very protective mechanism that avoids irritation in most of our patients probably already irritated mucosa. So, that's how I like to start the conversation. There's so many good techniques that we can share with them over time, and I might add that each patient is different. Each patient needs to have a personalized plan. When we talk about giving patients warm tea, typically chamomile, chamomile tea in itself is anti-inflammatory. Then, when you add something like honey, which is also a soothing, anti-inflammatory natural remedy, you have to really think to yourself, "They're getting honey. If they're diabetic, we don't want to give them too much honey." But, you have to make sure that their swallowing technique is good. There's no aspiration there, particularly if we give them cough drops. Then, just simple things that actually numb or anesthetize the back of the throat are very, very helpful for elderly patients who do have very friable tissue and mucosa from previous therapies like inhaled corticosteroids, as I had talked about before. Dairy products, I tend to ask my patients to avoid those. They can produce a lot of mucus, which these coughs that we see in our inhaled therapy patients are typically tend to be dry coughs, but some patients that have concomitant asthma, COPD, along with their ILD that are using these inhaled therapies can actually have more of a congested mucoid cough. So, avoiding dairy before and after use is always very smart. Avoiding alcohol, avoiding acidic drinks like orange juice, also very, very helpful. Mary Whittenhall, MSN: The part about technique I think is so, so important here. Oftentimes, when patients start these therapies, when they are approved in that space, the specialty pharmacy has a nurse educator that will come out to the patient's home and provide education not only about the medication, but about the administration of that medication. In many cases, the patients will take their first dose while the nurse is present so that the nurse can then critique whether or not the patient took it appropriately and how they tolerated it. I'm going to give a shout out to our nurse educators from the specialty pharmacies, because they are also a really crucial set of eyes and ears for us out in the community. They do provide education to the patients in the home. We have had situations where the patient has done well while the nurse is there, and then two weeks later we get a call from the patient saying, "I can't do this. This isn't working for me." And I'll say, "Okay. Well, you have a couple options. We can have you come in to the clinic and I want you to bring your device with you, and I would like to watch you do a treatment, or I can have the nurse come out and see you again and go over that." And they'll say, "I already know what I'm doing. I don't need that." But in many instances, we have found that they have adjusted their technique. They might've gotten into some bad habit since the nurse has left them. So, really reinforcing that is important. The other thing that I wanted to bring up is that some of our patients with connective tissue disease also have thickness in their tongues. So, their tongues become thicker and more sclerotome as their connective tissue disease progresses. For some of those patients, it is actually hard for them to get their tongue flat enough so that they can get the medication down into their lungs. So, working with those patients to find strategies to help rectify that. I will say that it is not impossible, it just takes maybe a little extra work. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: Inhaled therapies in themselves are pretty portable. Mary had alluded to a little bit earlier, our patients with pulmonary vascular disease, PAH, that are on parenteral therapies, delivering the conventional pulmonary vasodilator therapies. As we get into the new disease modifying agents such as seralutinib, which are anti-fibrotic, anti-inflammatory, anti-prolific medications, these are portable therapies that are actually modifying the disease. So they're portable. They're easy to use. They're easy to use for our patients, again, that are elderly or are younger and are still working, they have a professional life, they don't have to wear a pump that's 24/7 oftentimes. They can use these inhaled therapies first to see if they can avoid parenteral therapy with prostacyclins. Their quality of life is improved immensely. When you can take an inhaled therapy two to four times a day and really improve quality of life, decrease cough, decrease dyspnea, or shortness of breath on exertion. Sometimes, these patients that do very, very well can actually reduce their supplemental oxygen needs. Just improving their walk distances without having to stop or have excessive dyspnea, improves their quality of life. More time spent with loved ones and more time spent in social environments rather than sitting at home. These wonderful inhaled portable therapies have significantly changed our patients' lives and improved their quality of lives. Mary Whittenhall, MSN: This community I think is phenomenal. It's made up of so many great people. There are many patients who have been a part of this space for a long time who really want to help other patients who may be newer to the journey than them. I'm a big advocate for support groups. We've had an extremely active support group in our area for a long time, and I often partner some of my patients that have been with me for quite some time with some of the new patients that may need a bit more help. I can tell them things and my colleagues can tell them things. Oftentimes, the same message doesn't resonate. It resonates differently, I think when it comes from a peer, a patient who may have experienced the same thing as them. One of the things that I really try to drive home with our patients is just that sense of empowerment. Connect with these other folks in the community. They want to help you. They remember what it feels like being newly diagnosed or starting a new therapy or transitioning from another therapy. What that change is like. One of the other things I tell my patients is that we all sit at the same table. I'm not better than you. Maybe I have this information, but this information is for you. It's for you to take and to improve your life. If that information doesn't work for you, then you come back to me with some feedback and we come up with something else that's going to be more helpful to you. I really think having an equal playing field with them and having a very open and honest dialogue is what is going to help our patients do the best. If patients don't feel comfortable reaching out to other local patients or connecting with an in-person support group, there are tons of online resources through the PHA, through phaware®, Team Phenomenal Hope, lots of great groups out there that do things virtually. I think in some ways for some patients, anonymity is important, so being able to protect that is an option for them, but to be able to still get what they need so they can become the best advocate for themselves that they can. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: I stress so importantly to my patients, we are here today in this great environment and we have the armamentarium of medications to treat because of patients just like you that have contributed to the science of the disease and implemented themselves and engaged in these clinical trials. Right now we have an ongoing clinical trial for seralutinib called PROSERA, that's enrolling as we speak. Patients are the best advocates, not only for themselves, but for other patients, and they talk. There's a lot of social media out there where patients communicate amongst themselves and they say, "Through the help of my provider and through the help of my family, I was hesitant to start this additional therapy." They do have, at this juncture, and I don't think it's such a bad thing, they do have a little bit of a pharmacy burden now. Again, these aren't our patients that are on one or two therapies. They're on four or more oftentimes. When you take in our ILD patients, they're also on disease modifying agents, as well, for their interstitial lung disease. So again, I think it's really important for patients to communicate amongst themselves and share their ups and downs in the disease, but also share the rewards that come with surviving and living with PAH. I think one thing that we really do have to understand though is like many other chronic diseases, PH is a personalized disease. You need to have a personalized approach for your patients. That's why it's so very important to do a really good history of your patients and understand not only what their baseline cough is, but who they are, what their personal history is. Are they working? Who's helping to care for them? Who's helping to make that chamomile tea with honey? Who's going to the store to get that? A personalized approach is so important for these patients, I can't stress that enough. Mary Whittenhall, MSN: Special thanks to everybody involved in this project. This was extremely exciting. To my co-podcaster, Jennifer Keeley, who is amazing, and all of us in the PH community are extremely lucky to have her. We are all aware that you are all rare, and we are grateful to be able to help you in this journey. Jennifer Keeley, DPN: Thank you so much, Mary, and what a pleasure it's been to speak with you about cough and inhaled therapies, and thank you to Gossamer Bio for this opportunity and for the opportunity that led to this podcast, which was a significant advisory board amongst specialists in our field, advanced practice providers and registered nurses who were able to convene in a great open space and talk about this. I think this moves our science forward. It helps us to talk about the disease and take better care of our patients. Again, my name is Jennifer Keeley. It's been such a pleasure to deal with my good friend Mary Whittenhall today, and we're aware that our patients are very rare.

Erin Martin, the Co-Founder and CEO of Pump for Joy, turned her personal struggles into a groundbreaking innovation designed to empower mothers in the workplace. In this interview, Erin shared her journey of transforming what she calls an “exclusive pumping” experience into a solution to make life easier for countless moms.Erin described her experience as a working mother pumping breast milk in 2021: “The cleaning between each pumping session would take a long time. Every time I was done, it felt like the next second I was doing another pumping session.” Realizing the lack of support for pumping moms, she envisioned a product that eliminates the hassle of cleaning pump parts while maintaining a commitment to sustainability.Pump for Joy's flagship product is a single-use, 100% biodegradable breast milk collection kit. Designed to simplify the lives of working mothers, the product eliminates the need for extensive cleaning while remaining environmentally friendly. “I cannot bring myself to make a single-use plastic product,” Erin explained. “If I'm creating a convenience product, the very last thing I want to do is hurt the environment.”Developing this innovation has required Erin and her team to navigate the complexities of creating a biodegradable design that meets strict medical device regulations. However, their efforts don't stop there. Erin is actively exploring cellulose-based materials and cutting-edge bioplastics, such as PHA, to push sustainability even further.To fund this mission, Pump for Joy is raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder. This approach allows moms and supporters alike to invest in the company's success and become part of the effort to create a better future for working mothers and the planet.As a proud women-owned, minority-owned business, Pump for Joy exemplifies innovation, environmental stewardship, and social impact. Erin's commitment goes beyond solving a problem; it reflects a deep integrity. She put it best: “It's an unwavering commitment to create a better solution for moms and for the environment at the same time.”Those interested in supporting the company can explore its WeFunder campaign at s4g.biz/joy. Pump for Joy is making a real difference in the lives of mothers and contributing to a more sustainable world.tl;dr:Erin Martin created Pump for Joy to empower working moms with a biodegradable breast milk collection kit.The product eliminates cleaning for nursing mothers and prioritizes environmental sustainability with innovative materials.Erin and her co-founder Vanessa leverage their complementary skills to drive Pump for Joy's success.The company is raising capital on WeFunder, inviting the community to invest in its mission.Erin's superpower, creativity and tinkering, has been key to solving challenges and innovating sustainably.How to Develop Creativity and Tinkering As a SuperpowerErin's superpower lies in her ability to creatively tinker and iterate, transforming failure into opportunity. She explained, “I have not ever let go of this idea of constant learning and creativity. If there's a problem to be solved, my brain immediately starts thinking through how we might solve it.” Her passion for experimentation and improvement allows her to approach challenges with curiosity and determination, making her a natural innovator.When developing Pump for Joy's biodegradable breast milk collection kit, Erin faced a design challenge: creating a product that was both user-friendly and environmentally sustainable. Initially, the design was a single piece, but through relentless iteration, it evolved into a multi-part solution. Erin described how she explored everything from magnetic seals to twist mechanisms, testing each idea with prototypes from her 3D printer. Her persistence paid off, resulting in a design that balances functionality and sustainability, a testament to her creative problem-solving.Tips for Developing Creativity and Tinkering:Embrace Failure as a Learning Tool: Erin reminds us, “Failure is not final.” Use setbacks as opportunities to refine your approach.Stay Curious: Approach problems with a mindset of exploration and a willingness to try unconventional solutions.Iterate Relentlessly: Test, tweak, and repeat until you find the best solution.Learn New Skills: Erin's hobbies, like programming in Arduino and 3D printing, directly enhance her creative problem-solving.Adopt a Growth Mindset: Expect your first attempt to fall short and see improvement as part of the process.By following Erin's example and advice, you can make creativity and tinkering 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.

Le général nigérien, Abdourahamane Tiani, était cette semaine en tournée dans le pays. À Dosso, dans un discours devant des militaires, il a laissé entendre que la France préparait des opérations de déstabilisation contre le Niger et plus largement contre les états de l'AES. Il a pointé du doigt l'arrivée d'un navire de guerre français dans le port de Cotonou, affirmant, à tort, que ce bateau était venu à plusieurs reprises décharger des soldats français au Bénin. Ce n'est pas la première fois que le chef du Conseil national pour la sauvegarde de la patrie (CNSP) affiche des positions hostiles à la France. Ces dernières années, des accusations mensongères, ont visé la France et l'Europe. Ces narratifs, ont été régulièrement relayés par les médias d'État au Niger. Cette fois-ci, le chef de la junte s'en est pris à la France alors que les relations entre le Bénin et le Niger sont dans l'impasse. Accusations récurrentes Dans son allocution du 8 novembre 2025 à Dosso, il a affirmé : « la volonté de la France à nous déstabiliser, est une vérité, et nous ne cesserons jamais de le dire (...) un porte-hélicoptère qui s'appellerait Tonnerre, a accosté au port autonome de Cotonou, à bord ce sont des milliers de soldats français, et ça doit être le dixième débarquement à travers des portes hélicoptères amphibies ». Après vérification, il apparaît que le général Abdourahmane Tianni s'est saisi d'une information tout à fait officielle, à savoir l'escale d'un navire français au Bénin, pour nourrir un narratif complotiste. Nous avons retrouvé la trace du porte-hélicoptère Tonnerre entre le 5 et 9 novembre dans le Port de Cotonou. La présence de ce bateau a d'ailleurs été annoncée sur la page Facebook de l'ambassade de France au Bénin. Exercices communs dans le golfe de Guinée Joint par RFI, l'état-major français, précise que ce navire participe à la mission de surveillance et de lutte contre la piraterie baptisée « Corymbe » et qu'il sera présent dans la zone du golfe de Guinée jusqu'à décembre prochain. D'ailleurs, le Bénin ne sera pas sa seule escale, puisque jusqu'au 17 novembre, l'équipage du bateau va participer à des exercices avec les marines de 18 pays de la région, du Sénégal à l'Angola, en passant par la Guinée et le Cameroun. La présence de navires de la Marine nationale française dans la région est courante, dans le cadre de Corymbe comme dans le cadre de l'exercice international Grand African Nemo qui se déroule depuis huit ans, donc bien avant l'arrivée de la junte au pouvoir au Niger. Des soldats français par milliers introuvables au Bénin… La capacité maximale d'un porte-hélicoptères comme le « Tonnerre » n'excède pas 900 hommes, et encore pour des opérations relativement courtes. Selon l'armée française, il y a, à bord du navire amphibie, un groupement tactique embarqué avec des véhicules militaires et environ 450 hommes, au total. Rappelons que le PHA est un gros navire. Il s'agit des fameux bateaux de la classe « Mistral » : 20 000 tonnes, 200 mètres de long, donc des bâtiments très visibles et facilement identifiables. En revanche, aucun convoi militaire français, n'a été observé, ni filmé à terre au Bénin, ces derniers temps. Or, on déduit aisément que ces milliers d'hommes ne seraient pas passés inaperçus.
Hoàng gia Anh hiện được cho là một trong những hoàng gia giàu có nhất châu Âu và sẽ còn có sức sống lâu dài vì sau khi vua Charles lên nối ngôi Nữ hoàng Elizabeth II vào năm 2022, thì có con ngài là Thái tử William còn trẻ. Và William hiện có ba con, hai hoàng tử bé và một công chúa. Như thế, việc nối ngôi cho triều đại của dòng họ Mountbatten-Windsor được đảm bảo. Nhưng thực sự chúng ta có biết nhiều về Hoàng gia Anh ? Thông tín viên Nguyễn Giang, người đã sống ở Anh nhiều năm và theo dõi chủ đề này, cho RFI biết về lịch sử Hoàng Gia Anh, những gì họ sở hữu, điều đặc biệt trong cách chi tiêu và nguyên tắc kế vị : RFI : Ngược về quá khứ lịch sử, Hoàng gia Anh có gốc gác từ đâu ? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Vâng, xin giải thích dài dòng là chế độ phong kiến tập quyền của Anh đến từ đâu. Đến từ Pháp vào nửa sau thế kỷ 11 và tồn tại đến bây giờ, Hoàng gia, như một định chế chính trị và văn hóa, tồn tại ở Anh liên tục từ thế kỷ 11, không đứt quãng, còn gia tộc nào nắm quyền thì mỗi thời một khác. Chúng ta biết trong lịch sử có các triều đại làm vua chúa ở Anh như Plantagenet (gốc Anjou, Pháp), có nhà Tudor (tức Theodore, xứ Wales), có nhà Stuart (Scotland), và dòng Hanover từ Đức mà người đại diện cuối cùng là Nữ hoàng Victoria. Gia tộc nắm ngai vàng hiện nay có họ gốc Đức là Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, đến năm 1917 thời vua George V thì đổi sang họ Windsor, lấy tên lâu đài Hoàng gia ở gần Luân Đôn. Còn về dòng máu của các thành viên Hoàng gia Anh cũng như châu Âu thì họ thường có hôn nhân pha trộn rất phức tạp. Cụ thể vua Charles hiện nay có ông bà là người Anh, người Đan Mạch, Đức, Hy Lạp và cả Scotland nữa. Còn nói về thể chế và các quy tắc họ tuân theo để bảo tồn một nhà nước có vua thì tất cả bắt đầu từ năm 1066. Năm đó, công tước Guillaume hay William từ xứ Normandy ở vùng bờ biển miền tây bắc nước Pháp đem quân sang đánh vua Harold, người gốc Đan Mạch, ở trận Hastings bên bờ biển và tiến quân về Luân Đôn, giành được ngai vàng Anh. Từ đó, Anh chính thức có chế độ phong kiến tập quyền theo mô hình Pháp và các đời vua Anh (Kings of England), trên thực tế trong 300 năm tiếp theo vẫn dùng tiếng Pháp ở triều đình, tiếng Anh Trung đại (Middle English) chỉ dùng trong dân. Hoàng gia Anh thực chất là sinh hoạt theo kiểu Pháp và giới quý tộc Anglo-Saxon cũ, thường rất đơn giản, chỉ có ba cấp vua, các thân vương và tộc trưởng (chieftain, gọi là earl- sau đổi thành count-bá tước), cũng cải tổ theo hệ thống kiểu Pháp, đủ 5 tước vị : công - hầu - bá - tử - nam tước theo truyền thống hiệp sỹ (chivalry) của châu Âu. RFI : Trong thời hiện đại, khác với các nước châu Âu đã chuyển sang nền cộng hòa, Anh vẫn còn vua chúa và quý tộc. Vậy thực sự họ làm gì và có vai trò gì trong xã hội ? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Nhiều nghi lễ ngày nay dòng họ Windsor vẫn giữ nguyên như thế từ thế kỷ 11 và Hoàng gia đứng đầu 600 dòng họ quý tộc gốc, hình thành sau cuộc xâm lăng của William, người chinh phục và được phong tước trong mấy thế kỷ sau đó. Đây là các tước quý tộc thực thụ của giới chúa đất vẫn còn quyền lợi (landed gentry), và được quyền trao lại cho con cháu họ (hereditary titles). Họ khác hẳn với những người bình thường, được tặng các tước sir, lord (baronnes), hiệp sĩ, quý ông quý bà trong danh sách của Hoàng gia công bố mỗi dịp năm mới (New Year's Honours List). Danh sách này có hàng trăm người thuộc giới doanh nhân, văn nghệ sĩ, nhà hoạt động xã hội và sĩ quan quân đội. Sau nhiều năm phong tặng, con số người có các tước “quý tộc ban thưởng” này hiện ở Anh có trên 30 nghìn, mới đây gồm cả cựu cầu thủ bóng đá David Beckham. Thế nhưng các tước này có giá trị như huân huy chương, bằng khen, và không có quyền thế tập, truyền lại cho con cháu. RFI : Hiện nay Đế quốc Anh không còn nữa thì vai trò chính trị của Hoàng gia là gì? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Anh quốc là nền dân chủ có lâu đời trên thế giới nhưng theo thể chế quân chủ lập hiến (constitutional monarchy), và vẫn duy trì Vương triều: dòng họ Windsor. Nhà vua đóng vai trò Nguyên thủ Quốc gia (Head of State) để đại diện cho nước Anh trên thế giới, và phê chuẩn các đạo luật, bổ nhiệm thủ tướng. Ngài cũng là Tổng tư lệnh quân đội và theo truyền thống của Quân đội Anh, các sĩ quan cao nhất của các quân binh chủng đều được nhà vua phong tước quý tộc tượng trưng, còn bản thân vua Charles khi còn là Thái tử được mẹ của ngài, Nữ hoàng Elizabeth II lúc sinh thời, phong tước Nguyên soái (Field Marshall) vào năm 2012. Không quân và Hải quân Anh đều có chữ “Hoàng gia” (Royal) và trên lý thuyết là thuộc về nhà vua. Thế nhưng, vua Charles III còn có vai trò nữa là “người dẫn dắt quốc gia” (Head of Nation) về mặt văn hóa, là người nắm quyền chủ thể (the Sovereign) duy trì tính truyền thống Anh, và lễ nghi, đem lại sự ổn định và tính kế thừa, đoàn kết quốc dân. Các hoạt động vì cộng đồng, từ thiện nếu làm tốt là được nhận huân huy chương từ Hoàng gia, chứ không phải từ quan chức chính phủ. RFI : Hoàng gia Anh, cụ thể là vua Charles III và các thành viên Hoàng gia có sở hữu tài sản khắp cả nước hay không và họ quản lý tài sản ra sao? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Ở đây cần phân biệt hai loại tài sản. Loại thứ nhất tư dinh, điền sản và tiền bạc của riêng Nhà vua và Hoàng gia, thuộc về cá nhân họ. Loại thứ hai là tài sản của vương triều (Crown Estate) và ai làm vua nước Anh thì được sử dụng suốt đời nhưng không phải là tài sản cá nhân nên không thể bán đi bỏ túi. Xin nói cụ thể, tính đến tháng 5/2025 thì tài sản riêng của Nhà vua Charles III (personal fortune, not including the crown estate) là £640 triệu bảng Anh (trên 850 triệu USD), đưa ông trở thành triệu phú lớn nhưng chưa phải tỷ phú. Đó là trị giá hai khu dinh thự ở Balmoral (Scotland) và Sandringham (Norfolk) kèm đất đai xung quanh, cộng các khoản nhà vua đầu tư vào các quỹ khác nhau, lợi tức từ kinh doanh mà vua giao cho các công ty phụ trách. Còn tài sản Hoàng triều, gồm các cung điện lớn nhất nước Anh và cũng là trụ sở và nơi ở của vua như Điện Buckingham ở thủ đô và Lâu đài Windsor ở phía Tây Nam Luân Đôn, cùng nhiều điền trang thái ấp như Duchy of Cornwall...ước tính có giá trị 16 tỷ bảng Anh, thực chất là thuộc về Vương quốc Anh, và ai làm vua thì quản trị chứ không phải của riêng của dòng họ Windsor hiện nay. Lâu đài Windsor chẳng hạn có từ thời vua William người Pháp (1066), nay là trụ sở ngoài Luân Đôn của Vua Charles nhưng cũng là dinh thự quốc gia, nơi đón các khách quốc tế, ví dụ như Tổng thống Emmanuel Macron của Pháp mới đây. Ngoài ra, Crown Estate sở hữu và quản trị các “công quốc” (duchies), tức là các khu trang trại sản xuất nông nghiệp, đem lại lợi tức lớn. Tiền đó được chuyển vào một ngân hàng do chính phủ Anh quản lý (Consolidate Fund) và chừng 25% đem ra chi lại cho Hoàng gia để đi lại, bảo dưỡng, trùng tu các cung điện... Thế nhưng, các tài sản này như đã nói, thuộc về Vương triều, và vua Anh không thể đem cho thuê, bán cho bất cứ ai ở Anh hay ở nước ngoài. Các hoàng tử, công chúa cũng không được hưởng gì từ những tài sản này. Ví dụ còn nhỏ thì họ được ở cùng cha mẹ, tức là vua và hoàng hậu (thời trước là nữ hoàng và phu quân) trong các cung điện đó nhưng họ không có quyền thừa kế. Chỉ vị trưởng nam, hoặc trưởng nữ (như trường hợp công chúa cả Elizabeth kế vị vua cha George V), thì được hưởng tiếp tục quyền lợi ở trong các cung điện, dinh thự này. Những người khác, vẫn là hoàng tử, công chúa thì có thể phải rời đi. RFI : Về chi tiêu của Hoàng gia thì nhà nước Anh, hay người đóng thuế Anh phải bỏ ra bao nhiêu một năm? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Số tiền Nhà nước Anh, chi cho hoạt động của nhà vua và Hoàng gia hàng năm là khoảng 86-87 triệu bảng (tương đương 115 triệu USD). Như tôi nói ở trên, tổng tài sản của Hoàng triều (Crown Estate) trị giá 16 tỷ bảng, đem lại lợi tức hàng năm và nhà nước Anh thu tiền đó lại rồi lấy ra 25% chi lại cho Hoàng gia, gọi là Sovereign Grant. Trong khoản tiền này thì chừng 50-51 triệu bảng chủ yếu để bảo vệ, duy trì, sửa sang các dinh thự, cộng với chi phí đi lại, ví dụ vua Charles đi thăm nước nào đó, ở cương vị Nguyên thủ Quốc gia thì đó là chi phí máy bay, khách sạn... Ví dụ từ năm ngoái tới nay, Hoàng gia có thuê 55 chuyến bay riêng với gần 600.000 bảng Anh, và các chuyến bay theo lịch trình mất 126.000 bảng Anh. Tổng chi phí đi lại của hoàng gia là 4,7 triệu bảng Anh, tăng 500.000 bảng so với năm trước. Trong năm qua, khoản chi lớn nhất là 400.000 bảng cho chuyến đi của Nhà vua và Hoàng hậu tới Úc và Samoa. Nếu chia ra thì để duy trì các hoạt động của Hoàng gia, mỗi người dân Anh hàng năm đóng góp chừng 77 xu Anh. RFI : Theo anh tìm hiểu thì nguyên tắc truyền ngôi và thừa kế tài sản, các cung điện, dinh thự lớn của Hoàng gia Anh ra sao? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Phải nói rằng Hoàng gia Anh đứng trên cao nhất nhưng không đứng ngoài các nguyên tắc của quý tộc Anh : hạn chế quyền thừa kế, chỉ cho trưởng nam, hoặc trưởng nữ nếu vua không có con trai. Đây là nguyên tắc ‘primogeniture', nói rằng trừ một số biệt lệ với quý tộc Scotland cho con gái có quyền thừa kế, chỉ con trai trưởng được thừa kế gia sản đi kèm tước vị. Nếu nhà quý tộc có hai con trai trở lên, các con trai thứ sẽ không nhận được gì. Với Hoàng gia Anh, khi Nữ hoàng Elizabeth còn sống thì Thái tử Charles là người duy nhất thừa kế ngai vàng cùng các điền sản, tiền bạc từ mẹ. Các hoàng tử thứ Andrew và Edward, cùng công chúa Anne bị loại ra ngoài khoản thừa kế. Nay thì vua Charles sẽ để lại hết cho Thái tử William, còn hoàng tử Harry thì ngoài các khoản tiền hay dinh thự tư nhân mẹ để lại, không được thừa kế cả quyền sống trong các lâu đài của Hoàng gia. Nay đã sang Mỹ sinh sống, vị Hoàng tử này đã trọ ở khách sạn trong lần gần nhất về Luân Đôn tham gia một vụ kiện chống lại báo chí Anh. Tất nhiên ta phải hiểu là Hoàng tử Harry như một công dân bình thường thì vẫn có quyền nhận thừa kế từ cha mẹ (Công nương Diana khi tử nạn năm 1997 ở Paris có để lại tài sản cho hai con trai, William và Harry), nhưng đó là tài sản cá nhân, còn các điền trang thái ấp thuộc Hoàng triều (Crown Estate) thì chỉ được trao cho trưởng nam, hoặc trưởng nữ nếu nhà vua không có con trai. Nguyên tắc này còn phân biệt đối xử với phụ nữ. Với các công chúa Anh thì con của họ đều không còn tước quý tộc. Ví dụ hai con của Công chúa Anne, em gái Vua Charles, là Zara và Peter Philipps, thì mang họ cha, một sĩ quan quân đội không phải quý tộc. Xin mở ngoặc là điều này khiến Hoàng gia Anh khác hẳn với các dòng đế hệ của triều Nguyễn ở Việt Nam mà từ thời vua Minh Mạng đã để lại các tên riêng, đánh dấu địa vị quý phái của họ, gồm cả công tằng tôn nữ cho cháu chắt của vua chúa đến mấy đời sau. Bên này chỉ đến đời thứ hai, con của công chúa trưởng đã mất hết tước vị. Chúng ta hiểu là thời xưa, nguyên tắc ưu tiên trưởng nam trong luật thừa kế của vua chúa có ý nghĩa lớn cho sự ổn định của triều đại. Họ hạn chế nạn phân phong đất đai, dẫn tới cạnh tranh kiểu sứ quân. Ngày nay, quy chế truyền ngôi chỉ cho trưởng nam đúng là bất công với anh em trong một nhà, nhưng lại giúp bảo toàn được uy quyền của Vương triều, không để xảy ra việc xé lẻ đất đai, cung điện và tài sản. RFI : Cuối cùng, Hoàng gia làm gì để tồn tại và phù hợp với tình hình? TTV Nguyễn Giang : Việc đầu tiên tôi thấy là tính minh bạch của tiền bạc Hoàng gia. Họ công bố hết mọi chi tiêu trên các trang mạng của Quốc hội, của Hoàng triều, ai cũng đọc được. Điều này nhằm mục tiêu chứng minh cho công chúng rằng Hoàng gia không phải là một bộ máy phong kiến « ăn trên ngồi trốc ». Họ đóng góp vào công quỹ và nhận được trợ cấp từ chính phủ để lo việc nước. Có thế họ mới tồn tại được trong một thể chế dân chủ. Vua cũng có trách nhiệm giải trình. Thứ nhì, từ thời Nữ hoàng Elizabeth II thì số người thuộc Hoàng gia (Royal Family) đã bị giảm đi rất nhiều, để tránh tiếng là Hoàng gia đông quá. Ngày xưa, người trong Hoàng tộc, gồm hàng trăm người, và ai cũng giàu có, cao quý cả. Nhưng nay danh sách “thành viên Hoàng gia đang làm việc cho Quốc vương” (working royals) chỉ còn 11 đại diện cho vua để dự các lễ nhà nước, lo hoạt động đối ngoại, tiếp tân, từ thiện … Những người này được nhận tiền trợ cấp của vua khi làm việc chứ không ăn lương năm. Còn về tài sản riêng, có những động tác cho thấy Hoàng gia cắt giảm chi tiêu. Ví dụ, năm nay vua Charles vừa ra lệnh dừng sử dụng đoàn tàu hỏa riêng từ năm 2027 để tiết kiệm. Đây là đoàn tàu Royal Train do Nữ hoàng Victoria đặt hàng hai toa riêng cho Hoàng gia vào năm 1869. Khi đó, xe lửa là phương tiện giao thông công cộng duy nhất nối các vùng của Anh, với tuyến đầu tiên xây xong năm 1825. Cho tới gần đây, Royal Train được sử dụng rộng rãi trong các sự kiện trong thời kỳ kỷ niệm vàng và kim cương của Nữ hoàng Elizabeth II ở nửa sau thế kỷ 20 – và lần tân trang mới nhất cho các toa tàu diễn ra vào giữa thập niên 1980. Thế nhưng càng về gần đây, Hoàng gia dùng xe hơi, máy bay, trực thăng để di chuyển, nên trong năm 2024-2025 đoàn tàu chỉ được sử dụng trong hai dịp nên họ quyết định từ năm 2027 sẽ dừng dịch vụ này, đem các toa tàu đi trưng bày. Cuối cùng, như đã nói ở trên, nguyên tắc trưởng nam thế tập tước vị và điền sản, còn con trai thứ, con gái, dù là hoàng tử, công chúa đều bị loại hoàn toàn khỏi các chức vụ và đặc quyền đặc lợi, khiến cho công chúng cảm thấy là chỉ có một người được làm thái tử, làm vua, và đó là làm việc cho đất nước. Tài sản của Hoàng triều là của nước Anh chứ không phải của riêng của vua, nữ hoàng, để rồi có bao nhiêu cung điện - di sản của quốc gia - lại đem chia nhau. Như đã nói ở trên, Hoàng tử Harry là không còn sống ở Anh, không làm việc đại diện cho Hoàng gia nữa thì không chỉ mất luôn tiền trợ cấp mà còn bị tước hết các chức vụ trong quân đội.

It's rare that we contemplate where all the plastic we throw out goes, but rest assured that nearly none of it is being recycled. Simply put, it's usually cheaper to make new plastic than to recycle old plastic, even the plastic you put in the recycling bin. Because it takes plastic centuries to break down, this means for each one of us you could build a mountain of plastic from all the packaging we use over the course of our lives. But what if plastic didn't have to take centuries to break down, and could actually biodegrade in a matter of days or weeks? That's exactly the vision Luna Yu is bringing to life as founder and CEO of Genecis Bioindustries, a biotech company using fermentation to transform food waste into high-performance, truly compostable bioplastics. In this episode, Luna joins us—at 1 a.m. her time from a manufacturing run in China—to share the story behind Genecis, from her early days as a teenage entrepreneur in Canada to raising $17 million for her startup in the climate tech world. Luna walks us through how Genecis engineers microbes to turn low-cost industrial waste streams like glycerol into PHA, a biodegradable plastic alternative that's already being used in consumer products like Mad Tea and Mad Coffee. We discuss why Genecis is taking a direct-to-consumer approach, how they're preparing to launch in Sprouts nationwide, and what it will take to make sustainable plastics cost-competitive with petroleum-based ones. We also dive into Luna's big bets on the future—including cell-free biology, the promise of enzyme-only production systems, and her vision for a world where the most convenient option is also the most sustainable. If you're curious about the intersection of synthetic biology, circular economy, and product design—or you just want to hear from someone reshaping the future of plastic—this episode is for you. Discussed in this episode You can learn more about Genecis' technology by reading their patents and patent applications here. Luna is very inspired by Isomorphic Labs. Genecis is backed by Amazon and is a graduate of the Y Combinator accelerator. CJ Biomaterials manufactures PHA via fermentation. Plastic has only been around since the 1950s but we believe it lasts for centuries. How do we know? Researchers simulate environmental exposure in labs by increasing UV radiation, temperature, moisture, and mechanical stress to accelerate plastic breakdown. They analyze how the polymer chains degrade and extrapolate those results to estimate natural-world decay timelines. Get to Know Luna Yu Luna Yu is the CEO of Genecis Bioindustries. She completed her Bachelors and Masters in Environmental Science at the age of 21 at the University of Toronto. During her Undergrad, Luna co-founded, grew and exited from two profitable software startups. The exciting advancements in fields of synthetic biology, bioinformatics, and machine learning led her to infuse her passion and experience together. This created Genecis, where biotechnology enables the conversion of food waste into high value materials.

Riche, variée, infinie, gourmande, universelle, économe, locale, saisonnière, totalement ludique et réjouissante ! La cuisine végétarienne en a sous la pétale ; géniale, elle se mêle à toutes les marmites du monde. En galettes de légumineuses, en poudre, en pièce maîtresse et en accompagnement, le végétal à table nous régale. « Le vivant même est questionné selon les endroits de la planète. La « définition » de la cuisine végétarienne est centrée à l'endroit où on est né et selon nos habitudes. La singularité de la cuisine végétarienne est que l'on va raisonner autrement : la pièce centrale de l'assiette sera l'aubergine, les herbes à côté, et les fans de radis conservés au frigo, le secret c'est d'avoir plus de variétés pour créer le goût. » Estérelle Payany. « Au restaurant, j'ouvre d'abord mes frigos, je regarde ce que j'ai et ce que je peux faire avec. À partir du moment où c'est un exercice, même un petit défi quand la question est : qu'est-ce qu'on fait pour faire un très bon plat avec ce qu'il y a là ?! La cuisine végétarienne vient peut-être de ces habitudes et raisonnements-là. C'est une cuisine représentée dans les cuisines du monde entier », Julie Bavant. Avec - Estérelle Payany, journaliste, critique gastronomique, cuisinière et autrice de « Cuisine végétarienne », aux éditions Flammarion. - Julie Bavant, cheffe du restaurant Pistil, 12 rue de Lechevin, Paris 11ème.

La texture, et puis les condiments : miso, sauce soja, les sirops, le sel, la fermentation, les huiles végétales, et c'est là que l'assaisonnement joue un rôle particulièrement important.

« Naam », manger en thaïlandais. Mais « naam » signifie plus encore, c'est un tout : la nourriture est partout, en tout. Elle reflète et exprime tous les piliers de la vie en Thaïlande : la royauté, la famille et la religion. Qui en douterait après avoir assisté à l'offrande aux moines le matin ? Chaque foyer sort sur le pas de sa porte et dépose une partie de son repas dans les grands bols déposés par les moines. L'ouverture, l'accueil, le pays s'est construit aussi au fil des immigrations chinoises, birmanes, khmères, et de voisins plus lointains. La cuisine thaï est une incontournable de l'humanité, elle est le reflet de ces cuisines voisines dont les travailleurs étaient nostalgiques, elle raconte l'histoire de ce royaume de Siam jamais colonisé, de son riz, des saveurs de ses fruits et de ses racines, de la papaye, du galanga, du citron kaffir, du citron vert, du sucre de palme, de l'ail, et de la pâte de curry. On a envie que la découverte s'étire et de tester chaque saveur, si lointaine et pourtant étonnamment familière, qui les unes et les autres s'accordent dans une complexité et un raffinement époustouflants et addictifs. Fascinante et addictive cuisine, parfumée, raffinée : le goût d'un peuple. « La Thaïlande est un pays qui s'étire en longueur, la cuisine du nord n'a rien à voir avec celle du sud. Au nord, c'est une cuisine de montagne assez rustique, très herbacée, avec des influences très fortes de la Birmanie. Dans la région Isan au nord-est, grenier à riz de la Thaïlande, on trouve la som tam, salade de papaye verte. Plus au sud à l'est vers le Cambodge les influences sont khmères avec des aliments fermentés, la cuisine du sud très typée avec des influences musulmanes, cela a été un comptoir avec des influences musulmanes, persanes, malaises vers le XVIIIème une culture de la noix de coco, beaucoup de fruits, et au centre une cuisine assez métissée parce que toutes les communautés du pays y vivent. Sous Rama V le roi a décidé de diffuser des recettes qui viennent de la cour, qui ont apporté beaucoup de raffinement ».

Des techniques et un très grand respect des recettes : « Chez Naam, je veux les recettes les plus pures et montrer le côté méconnu de cette cuisine. C'est vrai que le compliment le plus beau que l'on me fait c'est : Oh lala je n'ai pas mangé de cuisine aussi thaï depuis que je suis revenu de voyage ! J'essaie de faire une cuisine sans compromis dans laquelle je vais vraiment chercher les saveurs thaï avec la liberté de cuisiner ici, sans pression comparée à celle des cuisiniers thaï ici. Ils vont être tentés d'aller moins vers le piquant, je peux me permettre de montrer cette facette ».

Anh và Pháp mới đây đã loan báo một chương trình thử nghiệm, theo đó những người di dân đi bằng thuyền nhỏ đến Anh sẽ bị trả về lại Pháp. Đổi lại, Luân Đôn sẽ tiếp nhận những người xin tị nạn đã được thẩm tra, thông qua một lộ trình hợp pháp. Trong lúc hai bên tiến tới một thỏa ước hết sức tế nhị, Hy Lạp lại cho thấy một lập trường hoàn toàn trái ngược, khi tuyên bố sẽ tạm đình chỉ quyền xin tị nạn, đối với một số trường hợp nhất định.
Tòa án tối cao Nhân Quyền Châu Âu vừa tuyên một bản án lịch sử, khẳng định Nga phải chịu trách nhiệm trong việc bắn rơi chuyến bay MH17 của hãng hàng không Malaysia năm 2014. Phán quyết được đưa ra, sau khi Tòa tiếp nhận 4 vụ khởi kiện do Ukraine và Hoà Lan đệ trình, kể từ khi cuộc xung đột bùng nổ năm 2014. Dù mang tính biểu tượng, nhưng bản án được tuyên trong bối cảnh Nga đang gia tăng các đợt tấn công vào lãnh thổ Ukraine, với kỷ lục 728 máy bay không người lái phóng vào Ukraine chỉ trong 1 đêm.
Our guest for this episode, William Orts, is someone we've been trying to get on the show for a while, and we're so glad we persevered.The work he's doing with USDA-ARS as the Research Leader in their bio-products division goes to showcase the remarkable progress that can be made when driven people work within the government ecosystem.William, or Bill, as he's better known, calls himself a PHA lifer, and that pretty much sets the tone of our conversation with him. We were hooked as he educated us on the origin of bio-plastics and the laudable work USDA-ARS is doing behind the scenes to create a conducive ecosystem for bio-products development and policy advocacy.A lot of guests come on our show with a wealth of knowledge but the genuine intention and readiness to share and collaborate is what sets Bill apart, and also makes this episode a must listen!

Hello, hello! Here's a riddle - What do Methane and Mangoes have in common? We'll have to ask Molly Morse and find out! CEO and co-founder of Mango Materials, Molly is working to produce biodegradable plastics (PHA) made from waste biogas that are economically competitive with conventional oil-based plastics. Her journey from a civil engineer to doing her PhD in bio-based materials is inspiring to say the least! It also set her up to become an entrepreneur and work towards changing the regenerative packaging landscape. A women-led company, Molly along with Allison Pieja Anne Schauer-Gimenez, started Mango Materials to turn their academic research into a reality. Mango Materials, named after their favorite fruit, has developed a way to turn methane gas into a form of biodegradable plastics as a pellet! Tune in to find out how they take this green gas and turn it into PHA pellets that are now being used in injection mouldings, fibres and food packaging!
