Podcasts about PLOS One

In this episode, we discuss a study published in PLOS One that compared living brain tissue to post-mortem brain tissue and found dramatic molecular differences between the two. The findings raise serious questions about decades of Alzheimer's research built on post-mortem analysis and may help explain why pharmaceutical treatments for the disease have been so disappointing Study: A Study of RNA Splicing and Protein Expression in the Living Human Brain -------------- To submit a question for us to answer on the podcast, go to brainjo.academy/question.

A study published in Nature Communications, published Feb 19, 2026, found that “pregnancy physically alters a woman's brain, with a second pregnancy bringing even more profound effects.” The researchers “performed brain scans on 110 women. Some were first-time mothers, others second-time moms, and some nulliparous women. Results showed that during a first pregnancy, the greatest changes occur in the structure and activity of the ‘default mode network' – the brain system responsible for self-reflection and mind wandering. Are these changes bad? Are they associated with long term hard? Are they adaptive? It's a complex question, with real answers. Listen in for details.1.

O que é um animal exótico? Um mesmo animal pode ser exótico em algum lugar mas noutro não? E o que seria um animal selvagem? E silvestre? Essa semana conversamos sobre essas definições todas e como esses animais podem estar presentes no nosso dia a dia. Além disso, quais os impactos de termos esses animais à disposição em nosso país? Como acontece o mercado e quais as consequências para os animais, para o meio ambiente e para nós, humanos? Patronato do SciCast: 1. Patreon SciCast 2. Apoia.se/Scicast 3.

Vegan essen – gesund trainieren – und trotzdem „Zahnprobleme“? In dieser Episode schauen wir evidenzbasiert auf Fluorid, vegane Ernährungsgewohnheiten und die besonderen Belastungen im Sport: Sports Drinks, Smoothies, Mundtrockenheit und häufige Kohlenhydratzufuhr. Du bekommst ein klares Modell, wie Karies und Erosion entstehen, welche Befunde Studien bei Veganer:innen und Athlet:innen zeigen und welche Präventionsmaßnahmen in der Praxis funktionieren.   Korrektur: Im Podcast spricht Dominik von einer Dentalfluorose, die er entwickelt habe durch Fluorid. Dies ist jedoch im Erwachsenenalter nicht mehr möglich. Wahrscheinlicher sind Verfärbungen der Zähne, durch im Tee enthaltene Tannine. Dennoch enthält Tee mitunter große Mengen Fluorid.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

They told us we were gifted. They pulled us from class. They tested us behind covered windows. Now thousands of adults are asking the same question: what was that?

In this episode, we simplify things. We break blood sugar control down into five simple strategies that actually make a difference — without extremes. We share:• Why meal timing matters as much as food quality• How to balance carbohydrates without cutting them out• The difference between glycemic index and glycemic load, and why it matters• Why eating enough is essential for blood sugar control in PCOS• How movement, sleep, nervous system and social factors shape blood sugar every day If you're tired of conflicting advice and feel like you're “doing everything right” but not seeing results, this episode is for you. These are the same foundations we teach inside our 12-week PCOS Recovery Program where we help you turn these principles into real-life habits with education, tools, and bi-weekly coaching support. Our next cohort starts February 18th! Enjoyed the episode?

We have learned a lot about extended spectrum coverage of prophylactic antibiotics for cesarean section. The landmark C/SOAP trial randomized 2,013 women undergoing nonelective cesarean delivery to azithromycin 500 mg IV plus standard prophylaxis versus placebo, demonstrating a 51% reduction in the composite outcome of endometritis, wound infection, or other infection. Adjuvant Zmax (plus standard first-generation cephalosporin) is now recognized as evidence-based antibiotic coverage for intrapartum cesarean, cesarean with ruptured membranes, and patients with obesity. This last patient characteristic comes from the ERAS latest update. But what is ZMAX is not available? Is there an evidence-based peri-op alternative in these cases? Does Gent and Clinda cover mycoplasma/Ureaplasma? What about postop flagyl? Listen in for details. 1. Tita AT, Szychowski JM, Boggess K, et al.

In this solo episode, Darin dives into one of the most universal modern experiences: the feeling that time is accelerating. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, cognitive science, and lived experience, he breaks down why time doesn't actually speed up, but our experience of it radically changes. From the impact of digital distraction and divided attention to the way novelty, memory, aging, and even COVID reshaped our internal sense of time, this episode offers both clarity and agency. Darin shows how reclaiming attention, breaking monotony, and creating richer experiences can give us the feeling of having our time back.     What You'll Learn Why time measured by a clock is different from time experienced by the brain How attention, memory, and emotion construct subjective time Why boredom feels slow while flow states feel fast How novelty creates richer memories and longer-feeling lives The role of routine and monotony in time compression How digital technology fragments attention and erases memory Why social media scrolling makes time disappear without satisfaction How COVID disrupted temporal landmarks and distorted time perception Why time feels faster as we age The neuroscience behind memory density and perceived duration Whether time itself is an illusion or a constructed experience Practical ways to slow down your experience of time How breaking routine restores a sense of fullness and presence Why life is measured in experiences, not seconds     Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife and the exploration of time 00:00:32 – Sponsor: TheraSage and frequency-based healing 00:02:16 – Why time feels like it's speeding up 00:03:07 – Measured time vs experienced time 00:03:39 – Subjective time and how the brain constructs duration 00:04:38 – Boredom, flow, and why time feels slow or fast 00:05:20 – Memory density and time compression 00:05:42 – Clock models vs attention and memory models 00:06:13 – Novelty, travel, and rich experiences 00:06:34 – Routine, repetition, and unremarkable days 00:07:21 – Divided attention and disappearing moments 00:07:56 – The digital shift and fragmented attention post-2000 00:08:30 – Micro-stimulation and wasted time 00:09:12 – Why scrolling doesn't equal flow 00:09:46 – Social acceleration and modern life 00:10:25 – COVID as a global experiment in time perception 00:10:55 – Loss of temporal landmarks during lockdown 00:11:57 – Sponsor: Caldera Lab and clean skincare 00:13:39 – Research on monotony and time compression 00:14:40 – Aging, fewer neural events, and faster time 00:15:30 – Childhood vs adulthood time perception 00:16:22 – Is time real or constructed? 00:16:57 – Physics, relativity, and subjective experience 00:17:56 – How to slow down your experience of time 00:18:12 – Novelty, adventure, and memory creation 00:19:00 – Sustained attention vs multitasking 00:19:37 – Breaking monotony in daily life 00:20:06 – Reducing digital distraction 00:20:25 – Enjoying life as a scientific practice 00:20:49 – Time as memory, not seconds 00:21:08 – Gaining agency over your experience of life 00:21:29 – Creating a richer year through experience 00:22:10 – Curiosity, adventure, and Darin's fascination with time 00:23:27 – Closing thoughts and call to action     Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Caldera Lab: Experience the clinically proven benefits of Caldera Lab's clean skincare regimen and enjoy 20% off your order by visiting calderalab.com/darin and using code DARIN at checkout.     Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien     Find More from Darin Olien: Instagram: @darinolien Podcast: SuperLife Podcast Website: superlife.com Book: Fatal Conveniences     Key Takeaway Time isn't speeding up — your brain is compressing it.

Cold plunges are everywhere, and the way people talk about them, you'd think they're a miracle cure for your brain, body, and soul. But in an age of algorithm-fueled evangelism, when a ritual becomes this ubiquitous and loud, we have to ask: how much of the buzz is backed by science… and how much is just marketing? In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of cold exposure: what's real, what's overstated, and why this "discomfort" has become a billion-dollar industry. We discuss: Why cold plunges went viral, and how wellness movements often devolve into identity-driven cultures The difference between cold exposure itself and the monetized "cold plunge movement" What constitutes a "cult" (and how pseudoscience forms around partial truths) The real physiological cold shock response Why the mental "high" after a plunge doesn't automatically equal long-term brain benefit The cardiovascular risks that rarely get discussed, especially for people with underlying heart disease What the research suggests about soreness, pain reduction, and muscle growth (including why cold immersion can blunt hypertrophy) The real story behind brown fat Who should avoid cold plunges altogether (asthma, arrhythmias, coronary disease, vascular conditions) Joining us for this conversation is investigative journalist and bestselling author Scott Carney (What Doesn't Kill Us, The Wedge), who has spent years inside the cold exposure world, first as a skeptic, then as a believer, and eventually as a critic of the culture that formed around it. His work reveals what happens when discomfort becomes identity, and when unfounded "social media science" outruns real science.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Ana Catarina Vieira de Castro, a researcher at the University of Porto (Portugal) specializing in canine behavior, welfare, and human–animal interactions, for a thoughtful discussion about one of the most contentious issues in modern dog training.Catarina is well known for her research comparing reward-based (positive reinforcement) and aversive or mixed training methods. Her work is frequently cited within the force-free community, often as scientific support for calls to restrict or ban certain training tools through legislation.Rather than dissecting individual papers line by line, our conversation focuses on the bigger and more difficult questions:Do aversives have a place in dog training?Are they effective, and under what conditions?What are the welfare risks of using them improperly?And just as importantly, what are the risks of removing them entirely through policy and legislation?We explore how science, ethics, and real world practice intersect, especially in cases where idealized training models often break down.Catarina's published work including Carrots vs. Sticks (Applied Animal Behaviour Science), her PLOS ONE studies comparing training methods and welfare, and her contributions to the literature on stress, obedience, and the dog–owner bond forms the background context for why these questions matter beyond academic debate. These studies are widely referenced in discussions around regulation, bans, and professional standards, making it essential to talk not only about findings, but also about interpretation, limits, and unintended consequences.Importantly, Catarina is also a dog trainer herself, which allowed this conversation to go beyond research settings and into the practical realities of working with real dogs.This was also the first time a scientist whose work is so frequently cited in these debates was willing to sit down with me for an open, long form conversation, something that hasn't been done in this space.This episode is for trainers, behavior professionals, policymakers, and dog owners who want a deeper, more honest conversation about effectiveness, welfare, and the real risks on both sides of the training method debate.

Many people start T3 medication hoping for more energy and mental clarity—only to end up feeling wired, anxious, or unable to sleep. In this episode of Thyroid Shorts, Dr. Eric Balcavage explains why too much or too little T3 can both amplify anxiety and insomnia, and how to restore calm by shifting from defense mode to recovery mode. You'll learn how the brain's fear center (the amygdala) interprets stress, how local T3 activity inside the brain differs from global thyroid output, and why "state before hormone" is the key to lasting recovery. Featuring insights from two pivotal papers: Psychoneuroendocrinology (2024): Evidence for thyroid hormone regulation of amygdala-dependent fear relevant memory and plasticity PLoS ONE (2011): Adult-Onset Hypothyroidism Enhances Fear Memory and Up-regulates Mineralocorticoid and Glucocorticoid Receptors in the Amygdala Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro – Is T3 causing your anxiety and insomnia? 02:00 – Input → Interpretation → Response: how the brain reads threat 05:00 – The amygdala as the body's alarm system 08:00 – The Threat Perception Loop and defense physiology 11:00 – Local vs global thyroid adaptation: T3 in the amygdala 13:00 – The T3 Paradox: too little vs too much T3 17:00 – Shifting from defense to recovery mode 19:00 – Key takeaways & how to calm the system before adjusting hormone Key Takeaway: Your thyroid follows your brain's perception of safety. Calming the nervous system restores efficient T3 conversion—without overstimulation.

Send us a textSummary: Microplastics are showing up in our water, food, air—and in human tissues. In this episode, I unpack what the best studies actually show (and don't), why risk is plausible but not proven, and the realistic steps you can take today without panic. In this episode, I cover:What microplastics are and why they're everywhere—from packaging and clothing to tire dust—and why production is still projected to rise ~70% by 2040 (OECD). OECD+2OECD+2The signal that caught my attention: patients with microplastics in carotid artery plaque had a markedly higher 3-year risk of heart attack, stroke, or death (NEJM). Association, not proof—but concerning. The Guardian+3New England Journal of Medicine+3PubMed+3What's turning up in the brain: autopsy work suggests rising microplastic loads in brain tissue, though causality remains unknown (Nature Medicine coverage). Nature+2Nature+2Everyday exposure: a liter of bottled water can contain ~240,000 plastic particles—mostly nanoplastics—using newer detection methods (NIH Research Matters). TIME+3National Institutes of Health (NIH)+3NCBI+3Indoor vs. outdoor air: estimates suggest we inhale tens of thousands of microplastic particles daily, with higher indoor concentrations (PLOS One). PLOS+1My takeaways for you (progress, not perfection):Respect the signal without catastrophizing. Human data are early, but cardiovascular and neurologic signals merit attention. New England Journal of Medicine+1Make the easy swaps: store food in glass, don't microwave plastic, favor loose-leaf tea over plastic-based tea bags, and replace plastic cutting boards with wood or glass. (These trim exposure; they don't eliminate it.) Air matters: consider a HEPA purifier for main living/sleeping areas and vacuum regularly; natural-fiber clothing sheds fewer synthetic particles. Water choices: where safe, use tap water with a quality home filter and a reusable (non-plastic) bottle—especially given the nanoplastic findings in some bottled waters. National Institutes of Health (NIH)Listener corner: You asked for more quick-hit myth busters (yes, we'll do “Does chicken soup speed recovery?”), and thanks for the reminder to wear a

Root-cause strategies for perimenopause, thyroid issues, and GLP-1 use—helping women achieve sustainable, muscle-preserving weight loss.----In this episode, I talk with Margaux Cousturian, PA-C, about the real reasons women struggle with stubborn weight gain—especially in their 30s, 40s, and 50s. We explore how perimenopause, thyroid health, stress, inflammation, and GLP-1 medications intersect, and why lasting results require more than calorie counting. Margo shares practical steps, smarter lab testing, and simple strategies to support muscle, metabolism, and sustainable weight loss.----Margaux Cousturian is a dedicated and experienced Physician Associate (PA-C) with a Master of Medical Science in Physician Assistant Studies from Mercer University. She completed her undergraduate studies at the University of North Georgia, earning a Bachelor of Science in Biology with Honors. Margaux brings a wealth of expertise in integrative and functional medicine to her role at Forum Health Knoxville, where she specializes in hormone therapy, autoimmunity, weight loss, and preventive health. Margaux has built a reputation for her leadership in gastrointestinal (GI) and autoimmune treatments. Margaux is also a published researcher, with her work featured in PLOS ONE, exploring treatments for bowel conditions. She has completed advanced training in functional medicine through the Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice (AFMCP) program and is working toward certification with the Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM). Margaux is an advocate for patient education and is a frequent speaker at wellness events, including the Knoxville Wellness Innovation Summit and the HotWorx Stress Management Seminar. She is passionate about empowering her patients through personalized, comprehensive care that addresses both the root causes of illness and long-term wellness.----Forum HealthFind us at: Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forumhealth.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Clinic Locator: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forumhealth.com/clinics/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Social: Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/forumhealthco/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/forum_health/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----PODCASTThank you for listening.Please subscribe and share.This podcast is produced by DrTalks.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drtalks.com/podcast-service/

In this solo episode, Darin reframes one of the most misunderstood forces in life — stress. Instead of seeing it as the enemy, he explores how stress is actually a messenger, guiding you back to alignment, safety, and awareness. Through science, spirituality, and lived experience, Darin breaks down how stress shows us where we're trying to control, where we're disconnected, and where our nervous system is calling for attention. He unpacks the layers of modern stress — from trauma and environment to community and purpose — and offers practical, embodied tools to restore calm, clarity, and resilience.     What You'll Learn 00:00:00 – Welcome to Super Life: Solutions for a Healthier Life and Better World 00:00:32 – Sponsor Spotlight: TheraSauna - Natural Healing Technologies (15% off with code Darrandai) 00:02:10 – The Super Life Podcast: Finding Contentment, Happiness, and Purpose 00:02:51 – Today's Topic: Stress - Reframing Stress as an Ally and Dashboard Light 00:04:54 – The "No Choice" Universe: Reconnecting to Infinite Possibilities 00:05:16 – The Reality of Stress: Statistics and the Impact of Chronic Stress 00:06:21 – Stress is Layered: Beyond a Single Cause, Addressing Chronic Stress 00:08:29 – Solutions for a Super Life: Safety over Calm and the Vagal Response 00:09:38 – The Inner Dialogue Layer: Trauma, Unconsciousness, and Spiritual Bypassing 00:11:47 – The Social Field Layer: Relationships, Community, and Finding Your Way Home 00:14:20 – Sponsor Spotlight: Bite Toothpaste - Sustainable, Non-Toxic Tabs (20% off with code Darin20) 00:16:35 – Creating Your Own Vision: Setting Boundaries with Media and Social Algorithms 00:17:29 – Finding Your Purpose: From Raising Children to Healing Injuries 00:18:35 – Environmental and Existential Stress Layers: Clutter, Noise, and Service 00:19:26 – Stress Load and Resiliency: Why Small Triggers Cause Blow-Ups 00:20:02 – Understanding the Dashboard Light: Acknowledging Unwillingness 00:20:35 – Safety as the Signal: Body Relaxation and Providing Inner Security 00:23:44 – Reframing Trauma: Was it the Protector You Needed at the Time? 00:25:00 – Releasing Trauma: Techniques, The Healing Code, and Waking the Tiger 00:26:06 – Finishing the Survival Response: Shaking, Crying, Screaming, and Stretching 00:26:38 – Stress as a Multiplier: Impact on Immune System, Heart, and Aging 00:28:10 – Stress Slows Repair: Inflammation, Cardiovascular Risk, and Cellular Aging 00:29:48 – The Integrative Approach: Changing Your Environments to Support Anti-Stress 00:30:07 – Actionable Stress Solutions: Circadian Rhythm, Nature, and Noise Reduction 00:30:44 – Actionable Stress Solutions: Gratitude, Conscious Breath, and Movement 00:31:32 – Energy Drains to Eliminate: Conflict, Clutter, Scrolling, and Late Caffeine 00:32:17 – Connecting to Greater Purpose: The Super Life Patreon Platform 00:32:54 – Morning/Night Questions: Letting Go, Creating, and Contributing 00:33:17 – Final Toolkit: Slow Breathing, Movement, Nature, Sauna, and Sleep 00:34:25 – The Invitation: Digging into all Layers of a Super Life on Patreon   Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

A new prospective multicenter cohort of 250 patients with shock examines the safety and outcomes of peripheral vasopressor administration. Extravasation events were rare and clustered only after several days of infusion, while norepinephrine use and simple physiologic markers correlated with survival. In this episode, I translate the findings into bedside guardrails—which sites and gauges to use, how to monitor, and when to pivot to a central line.The Vasopressor & Inotrope HandbookAmazon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/47qJZe1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Affiliate Link)My Store: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://eddyjoemd.myshopify.com/products/the-vasopressor-inotrope-handbook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Use "podcast" to save 10%)Citation:Petros A, Melkie A, Kotiso KS, Kebede D, Oljira CF, Assefa Gemechu F, Yusuf H, Abebe S, Ashagre A, Bekele A, Yohannes A, Etesa EK, Bedru M, Gebremariam TH.

Être petit n'a pas toujours été perçu comme un avantage. Dans une société où la taille est souvent associée à la force, au charisme ou au succès, les personnes de petite stature ont parfois le sentiment d'être désavantagées. Et pourtant, la science apporte une revanche inattendue : les petits vivraient plus longtemps.Cette découverte provient notamment d'une vaste étude menée à l'Université d'Hawaï, publiée dans la revue PLoS One. Les chercheurs ont suivi plus de 8 000 hommes d'origine japonaise pendant plusieurs décennies. Le résultat est sans appel : ceux qui mesuraient moins de 1,73 m vivaient en moyenne cinq ans de plus que ceux dépassant 1,83 m. Une différence significative, qui s'expliquerait en partie par un gène fascinant : FOXO3.Ce gène, surnommé « le gène de la longévité », joue un rôle clé dans la régulation du métabolisme, la réparation cellulaire et la résistance au stress oxydatif — trois mécanismes essentiels au ralentissement du vieillissement. Or, certaines variantes de ce gène sont plus fréquemment observées chez les personnes de petite taille. En d'autres termes, la nature semble avoir trouvé un équilibre : un corps plus petit, mais mieux armé pour durer.Sur le plan biologique, cela s'explique assez bien. Un organisme plus petit consomme moins d'énergie et produit moins de radicaux libres, ces molécules instables responsables du vieillissement cellulaire. Le cœur, quant à lui, a moins d'efforts à fournir pour irriguer le corps : chaque battement couvre un territoire plus restreint. Moins de stress pour les organes, donc une usure plus lente. Les chercheurs ont aussi observé que les personnes plus petites avaient souvent une meilleure sensibilité à l'insuline, un facteur clé dans la prévention du diabète et des maladies cardiovasculaires.Chez les femmes, les données sont encore incomplètes, mais les premières tendances semblent aller dans le même sens. Certaines études européennes laissent penser que le gène FOXO3, présent aussi bien chez l'homme que chez la femme, pourrait offrir un avantage similaire.Ainsi, si la petite taille peut parfois être perçue comme un handicap social, elle s'avère, biologiquement, un atout pour la longévité. Moins de centimètres, mais plus d'années : voilà une équation qui redonne du sens à l'expression « tout ce qui est petit est précieux ». Hébergé par Acast.

Do you routinely order prophylactic antibiotics at time ofsecond-degree laceration repair? Is there data for that? While the use of prophylacticantibiotics “is reasonable” (per ACOG PB 198) for OASIS lacerations, what doesthe data look like for second degree lacs? Well, the answer is both supportiveAND non-supportive of that practice! In this episode, we will cover a brand newpublication (RCT) from BMJ on this very issue, and also highlight a meta-analysisfrom Plos One (May 2025) that also examined this question.

TikTok and other social media sites are full of mental health content—often short, grabby, first-person videos detailing symptoms for conditions like ADHD and autism. But what does this mean for teens and young adults who spend hours a day scrolling?A new study published in PLOS One analyzes the 100 most viewed TikTok videos about ADHD to assess both how accurate they are and how young people respond to them. Researchers found that about half of the videos were inaccurate or missing key context, and that the more TikToks young adults watched, the less critical they were of the content.For some, watching social videos about mental health conditions led them to better understand themselves and eventually get a proper diagnosis and treatment. For others it made them consider if they have conditions they don't meet the diagnostic criteria for.Host Flora Lichtman talks with the lead author of the ADHD TikTok study, Vasileia Karasavva, a PhD Student in clinical psychology at the University of British Columbia; and Dr. Jennifer Katzenstein, director of psychology, neuropsychology, and social work at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida.Guests: Vasileia Karasavva is a PhD Student in Clinical Psychology at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.Dr. Jennifer Katzenstein is Director of Psychology, Neuropsychology and Social work and Co-director of the Center for Behavioral Health at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida. Transcripts for each episode are available at sciencefriday.com.

It's part 2 of our dive into the Insect Apocalypse, with our good friend Dr. Jason Dombroskie from the Cornell University Insect Collection!In this part, Jason fills us in on the drivers of the Insect Apocalypse and - most importantly - what we can do about it.This episode was recorded on August 21, 2025 at Rattlesnake Hill Wildlife Management Area in Dalton, NY.. Episode NotesDuring the episode, we made the claim that 40 million acres of the US is lawn, and that that area is equal to all of the country's National Parks put together. True? Well, sort of. The claim that the U.S. has about 40 million acres of lawn—roughly equal to all our national parks combined—is only partly true. A NASA-funded study led by Cristina Milesi estimated that turfgrass covers about 128,000 km² (≈31 million acres) of the continental U.S., making it the largest irrigated “crop” in the country (Milesi et al., Environmental Management, 2005; NASA Earth Observatory). Later analyses and popular summaries often round that up to ≈40 million acres (e.g., Scienceline, 2011; LawnStarter, 2023). By comparison, the total land area of all officially designated U.S. National Parks is about 52.4 million acres, while the entire National Park System—which also includes monuments, preserves, and historic sites—covers about 85 million acres (National Park Service, 2024). So while lawns and parks occupy areas of similar magnitude, lawns do not actually equal or exceed the combined area of the national parks. Is it better to mulch leaves on your lawn or leave them be? Here's what we found: It's generally best to mulch your leaves with a mower rather than rake or remove them. Research from Michigan State University found that mowing leaves into small pieces allows them to decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing weeds like dandelions and crabgrass (MSU Extension, “Don't rake leaves — mulch them into your lawn”, 2012). Cornell University studies similarly show that mulched leaves improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity (Cornell Cooperative Extension, “Leaf Mulching: A Sustainable Alternative”, 2019). However, in garden beds, wooded edges, or under shrubs, it's often better to leave leaves whole, since they provide winter habitat for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates that overwinter in leaf litter (National Wildlife Federation, “Leave the Leaves for Wildlife”, 2020). The ideal approach is a mix: mow-mulch leaves on grassy areas for turf health and leave them intact where they naturally fall to support biodiversity and soil ecology.

Welcome to PsychEd, the psychiatry podcast for medical learners, by medical learners. This episode covers goals of care conversations.Our guest for this episode is Dr. Tavis Apramian, a clinician-investigator in the Department of Family & Community Medicine (DFCM) at the University of Toronto and scientist in the Office of Education Scholarship. He works as a palliative care physician at St. Michael's Hospital and at Kensington Hospice. His largely qualitative program of research is focused on advance care planning; workplace-based learning and assessment; palliative care in family medicine; medical assistance in dying; and inequity in end-of-life care. His primary focus is on telling rich stories of learner and patient experiences to spark conversation about socioculturally complex educational and clinical problems in serious illness.The learning objectives for this episode are as follows:Describe a palliative approach to care and its relevance across different contextsDemonstrate a structured and compassionate approach to goals of care conversationsApply effective communication strategies to build therapeutic alliance, navigate difficult conversations, and involve multiple actors in the palliative contextRecognize and manage challenges in goals of care conversationsGuest: Dr. Tavis ApramianHosts: Dr. Daamoon Ghahari (PGY2) and Dr. Angad Singh (PGY2)Audio editing: Dr. Angad Singh (PGY2)Timestamps:(1:07) - Journey to palliative care(5:07) - What is palliative care(14:47) - Understanding patient values(33:47) - Structuring goals of care conversations(44:16) - Communication strategies(57:05) - Navigating family meetings(77:25) - Reflections on MAiD for sole mental illnessResources:Roth, H.

Stress isn't just something to “manage” — it's a signal, a teacher, and often, an invitation to look deeper at our health, our choices, and our lives. In this solo episode, Darin reframes stress not as an enemy, but as a dashboard light pointing toward misalignments in our nervous system, environment, relationships, and purpose. Drawing on science, practical tools, and personal insight, Darin reveals how layered stress silently drains our vitality — and how to transform it into an ally for growth, healing, and deeper contentment. Whether it's hidden trauma, toxic environments, unresolved conflict, or the modern distractions constantly pulling at our attention, Darin lays out a roadmap to stop the leaks and reclaim the energy already within you. This episode is a powerful reminder: stress isn't the end of the story — it's the beginning of awareness, safety, and a super life.     What You'll Learn in This Episode [00:00] Introduction to the Super Life podcast [03:27] Why stress might not be your enemy [04:17] Stress as an ally: the signals it gives us about misalignment [04:32] The dashboard light metaphor: how stress reveals hidden issues [05:28] The illusion of “no choice” and the infinite possibilities always available [06:12] Global stress statistics and why most people underestimate their stress load [07:23] Hidden stress revealed through heart rate variability and physiology [08:23] Layered stress: how sleep, exercise, and poor choices compound each other [09:25] Safety vs. calm — why your nervous system craves safety first [10:15] Trauma and the unconscious mind: how old wounds drive our stress response [11:54] Inner narratives and negative self-talk as hidden stress multipliers [12:22] The role of community and your social field in stress and resilience [13:53] Relationships, honesty, and how your circle shapes your energy [14:55] Why boundaries around media and politics are vital for mental clarity [17:42] Finding micro-purpose when life feels overwhelming [18:52] Environmental layers of stress — light, air, and clutter [19:15] The existential layer: stress from living without service or purpose [20:12] Stress as a risk amplifier — how it undermines healing and health [20:55] The deeper truth of safety, connection, and higher power [23:00] Practical tools: breathing, grounding, nature, and conscious choices [24:01] Trauma reframed: not a problem, but a protector at the time [25:25] Lessons from Peter Levine and wild animals: releasing trauma physically [26:04] Questions to ask trauma: “What are you protecting me from?” [26:56] Stress as a multiplier of aging, disease, and poor outcomes [29:20] Why stress isn't a single cause — it's layered and chronic [30:18] Anti-stress strategies: circadian rhythm, nature, and gratitude [31:49] Energy leaks to avoid: clutter, poor food, scrolling, bad boundaries [32:22] What matters most: service, contribution, and alignment [33:28] Final toolkit: breathwork, movement, nature, sleep, and gratitude [34:38] The deeper invitation: step into sovereignty and live your SuperLife     Thank You to Our Sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to mannavitality.com/  or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your order.
