In 1965 Margaret Crane was a young designer creating packaging for a pharmaceutical company when a scientist gave her a tour of the lab. Looking at the long rows of pregnancy tests she thought, well anyone could do that test at home! So she set about designing a prototype for America's first home pregnancy test. While the design of the prototype was simple, convincing the company, the medical community and conservative social leaders that at-home pregnancy testing was safe and necessary was an uphill climb for Crane, who is only now receiving credit for her contributions to the industry. This show first aired in February 2024. Featuring: Margaret Crane - Graphic designer and inventor of the first home pregnancy test Wendy Kline - Dema G.

In this episode of Educate to Self-Regulate, I'm joined by my friend and co-host Nidean Dickson to explore an important question for today's classrooms:How do we move from thinking routines and good questions to genuine self-regulated learning and authentic engagement?Many classrooms appear engaged on the surface. Students follow routines, raise their hands, and complete tasks. But this visible participation can sometimes become ritual compliance — behaviour that looks productive but lacks cognitive depth.In this episode, you'll learn:✔️ The difference between compliance and authentic engagement✔️ Why engagement depends on metacognition, interest, and self-control✔️ How thinking routines can become transferable learning strategies — and avoid “strategy stripping” by teaching students how and why to use them✔️ The NEMO-T Framework — Name, Explain, Model, Opportunity, Time for reflection, and TransferTrue engagement comes when students can understand and regulate their own learning.Listen on Spotify and Apple podcastsWatch the full episode on YouTubeResources & MentionsZaretta Hammond and Dr Ron Ritchhart Interview Dr Amy Berry — The Engagement ModelWong et al.

View This Week's Show NotesStart Your 7-Day Trial to Mobility CoachJoin Our Free Weekly Newsletter: The AmbushWhat if the biggest predictor of dementia isn't your genes — but your metabolic health?In this episode, neuroscientist and performance coach Dr. Tommy Wood reveals why blood sugar regulation and blood pressure are more powerful predictors of Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline than amyloid plaques or even genetics like ApoE4.For decades, Alzheimer's has been framed as either a genetic lottery or the inevitable buildup of amyloid in the brain. But emerging research shows that metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance, and vascular health may play a far greater role in determining long-term brain outcomes.Instead of focusing on fear, this conversation delivers a practical blueprint for building cognitive reserve and “cognitive headroom” — the brain's ability to stay resilient, adaptable, and high-performing as you age.You'll learn why crossword puzzles aren't enough, how high-intensity exercise and resistance training stimulate brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), why lactate may act like “Miracle-Gro” for your neurons, and how to interpret early warning signs like subjective brain fog.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy Alzheimer's isn't just about amyloid plaquesThe powerful link between blood sugar and cognitive declineHow genetics (like ApoE4) increase risk — but don't seal your fateWhat “cognitive headroom” means and how to build itWhy high-intensity exercise may act as Miracle-Gro for the brainThe surprising role of resistance training in brain healthWhat subjective brain fog might be telling youHow menopause affects cognition — and what's reversibleWhy boredom and focus matter more than we thinkThe kinds of skills you should keep practicing as you ageFor women navigating perimenopause and menopause, Dr. Wood explains what cognitive changes are hormonally driven, what's reversible, and how to protect long-term brain health.Whether your goal is preventing Alzheimer's disease, improving focus and processing speed, or becoming a cognitive “superager,” this episode provides evidence-based strategies to help you build a brain that is robust, metabolically healthy, and built to last.Key Highlights: (00:00) – Brain Health & Cognitive Longevity Intro(00:35) – Brain Evolution & Survival Mechanisms(02:53) – Diabetes & Alzheimer's Disease Link(07:31) – Genetic Risk & Dementia Family History(11:32) – Expanding Brain Capacity & Headroom(15:08) – Cognitive Reserve & Brain Resilience(19:55) – Preventing Age-Related Cognitive Decline(23:00) – Exercise Data for Brain Health(26:16) – Best Exercises for Cognitive Function(35:11) – Amyloid Plaques & Alzheimer's Pathology(38:00) – Amyloid-Targeting Drugs & Treatments(40:31) – Subjective Cognitive Decline Measures(45:04) – Testing & Measuring Brain Performance(49:58) – Menopause & Female Brain Health(56:10) – Aging Brain, Wisdom & Intelligence(1:05:00) – Cognitive Processing Speed & Aging(1:07:07) – Benefits of Boredom for the Brain(1:12:17) – Book Recommendations for Mental GrowthConnect with Dr. Tommy WoodWebsite | Substack | InstagramPre-Order The Stimulated Mind for tons of extra perks!Huge thanks to our sponsors, Momentous, Vitality, and LMNT.

With Liemena Harold Adrian, Syarifah Ambami Rato Ebu General Academic Hospital, Surabaya - Indonesia and Shelley Zieroth, St. Boniface Hospital, Winnipeg - Canada. In this episode, Liemena Harold Adrian and Shelley Zieroth discuss heart failure in post–myocardial infarction patients, covering how myocardial infarction leads to the development of heart failure despite advances in reperfusion and acute care. The conversation addresses the epidemiology and underlying pathophysiology, approaches to early prevention and screening, diagnostic tools, as well as key interventions in the acute and early post-MI phases that may alter heart failure trajectories. They outline management with guideline-directed medical therapy, review current studies on heart failure–modifying therapies (such as the DAPA-MI and EMPACT-MI trials), and address indications for advanced therapies in post-MI populations. The episode also highlights the importance of early diagnosis, prompt recognition, and key evidence gaps in the field. Recommended readings: Akhtar KH, Khan MS, Baron SJ, et al.

Today, we're speaking to Dr Karol Basta, a Public Health Registrar based in London.Title of paper: Predictors of Childhood Vaccination Uptake and Timeliness in a Diverse Urban PopulationAvailable at: https://doi.org/10.3399/BJGP.2025.0319Childhood vaccination rates have declined in the UK, with inequalities in urban, deprived, and ethnically diverse populations. Previous studies have lacked individual-level clinical data or did not explore both uptake and timeliness. We analysed 13 years of routinely collected primary care data for over 37,000 children in a diverse London borough to identify predictors of uptake and timeliness. Distinct sociodemographic and clinical factors were associated with incomplete and delayed vaccination, offering timely insights as responsibility for vaccination services shifts closer to local systems and place-based commissioning.TranscriptThis transcript was generated using AI and has not been reviewed for accuracy. Please be aware it may contain errors or omissions.Speaker A00:00:00.880 - 00:00:52.000Hi and welcome to BJJP Interviews. I'm Nada Khan and I'm one of the associate editors of the Journal. Thanks for taking the time to listen to this podcast today.In today's episode, we're speaking to Dr. Carol Basta.Carol is a public health registrar based in London and we're here to talk about the paper she's recently published here in the bjgp, which is titled Predictors of Childhood Vaccination Uptake and Timeliness in a Diverse Urban Population. So, hi, Carol, it's really lovely to meet you and to talk about this work. And I guess just to start, I wanted to put this work into context.We know that in the uk, overall childhood vaccination rates have unfortunately been declining. Could you talk us through some of the current challenges around vaccination, especially in urban and diverse areas?Speaker B00:00:52.720 - 00:02:06.750Yep. So we know vaccinations are really powerful and cost effective tools we have in giving children the best start in life life.But unfortunately, in the UK, since 2012, the uptake has been declining and actually since 2021, none of the vaccines in England have reached the 95% target recommended by the WHO to stop communicable disease outbreaks. And the kind of negative consequences of this aren't just sort of future hypothetical risks.We've already been seeing vaccine preventable diseases such as measles and whooping cough resurgences, and this is especially in certain parts of the uk, such as London or the northwest of England. So no uptake of vaccines is decreasing and vaccine preventable diseases are increasing. But that's not the full picture.We also know, for example, following work done by, at the time, Public health England in 2017, there are avoidable inequalities across the childhood vaccination program nationally, for example, linked to deprivation, geography and ethnicity.However, what was missing was really kind of contemporary granular evidence on the social and clinical factors associated with unequal vaccine outcomes, especially in diverse urban environments.Speaker A00:02:06.990 - 00:02:16.670And I know this was highlighted as well during COVID but there is a mistrust of health services amongst some communities as well, which might be playing into this.Speaker B00:02:17.470 - 00:03:11.120Yeah, exactly.So at the time when I was working in Lamb of Council, we knew qualitatively from talking to our community and talking to our local GP partners, that there was kind of sense of rising mistrust in healthcare services, but...
If you've been told your AMH levels mean you "don't have time" or that IVF is your only option… this episode is required listening. AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) is often used as a marker of ovarian reserve. Doctors rely on it heavily when evaluating fertility. But when you have hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) or period loss, AMH can be incredibly misleading. In this bonus episode, I'm breaking down: What AMH actually measures Why AMH can appear falsely LOW in HA Why AMH can appear falsely HIGH in HA (and get misdiagnosed as PCOS) Why HA must be ruled out before diagnosing PCOS When AMH is actually useful Why restoring ovulation is the real goal — not obsessing over a lab value
The Iran situation remains murky. President Trump says he will be indirectly involved in renewed nuclear talks in Geneva, describing them as “very important,” while simultaneously ordering a significant military buildup in the Persian Gulf. A second aircraft carrier. Additional F-35s. Diplomacy and deterrence running in parallel.I am genuinely unsure what the endgame is here. Is this Venezuela-style pressure, where decapitation and economic realignment are the model? Or is this about crippling missile capacity and nuclear infrastructure? Iran is not Venezuela. It has ideological cohesion in ways Caracas did not. It has true believers.What confuses me most is timing. If there was a moment of peak internal pressure inside Iran, it may have passed. Now we are left with talks that may or may not be sincere, layered on top of military posturing that may or may not be a prelude to action. I would not be shocked by a strike. I would not be shocked by a deal. That is not analysis. That is honest uncertainty.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

Senate Democrats blocked a stopgap funding bill demanding tighter warrant requirements, unmasking of agents, expanded body camera usage, and changes to patrol tactics after controversial shootings. Republicans argue ICE funding continues under prior legislation and most DHS workers are deemed essential anyway.So far, public disruption has been limited. But if TSA agents and other DHS personnel miss paychecks long enough, pressure will build. My priors here are consistent: Democrats believe they are in a popular posture standing up to Trump. They are, at least rhetorically. But at some point, the government has to reopen fully. And any deal negotiated from the minority will disappoint the activists who demanded maximal reform.That is the trap of shutdown politics. You escalate to energize your base. Then you have to compromise to govern.Jesse Jackson and a Bygone EraFinally, Reverend Jesse Jackson died at 84. Whatever your partisan perspective, he was a towering figure in American political history, a bridge between the civil rights movement and modern Democratic presidential politics. He changed what was imaginable in national campaigns. His influence on leaders like Barack Obama is undeniable.The era he represented feels distant now. The fights are different. The coalitions are different. Even the tone is different. But history has long shadows, and Jackson cast one.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:35 - Uncle Luke Running For Congress00:07:51 - Polymarket Odds for Texas Senate Primaries00:26:04 - Update00:26:18 - Jesse Jackson00:28:52 - Iran00:32:44 - DHS Shutdown00:36:56 - Polymarket Odds for California, Maine, and Michigan01:02:03 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Today's guest is Jim Reid, Global Head of Macro Research at Deutsche Bank. In today's episode, Jim walks through lessons from his annual report, The Ultimate Guide to Long-Term Investing, which covers over 200 years of market data from 56 countries. He explains why cash is one of the riskiest long-term assets, how inflation quietly destroys wealth, and why valuation is the single most reliable predictor of long-term returns. He also discusses how fiat money has reshaped bonds, gold, and equities since 1971. To close, Jim reminds us that history consistently rewards investors who buy cheap, diversify globally, and respect long-term market cycles.

A @Christadelphians Video: Discussion: The Bible is a book ahead of its time in describing parts of the natural world. Scientific discoveries have endorsed the Bible facts. Some science 'facts' have been modified over time as later discoveries have shown earlier conclusions were wrong, and the Bible was always right. Talk concluded with a useful Q and A session.Is the Bible an outdated book of fables, exposed by modern science? Or does scientific discovery actually point toward the truth of Scripture? In this thought-provoking presentation, we explore the dynamic relationship between science and the Bible.We examine compelling examples where the Bible anticipated scientific discoveries, from ocean currents to the water cycle. The discussion reveals how science and faith are not enemies, but can be complementary ways of understanding our world. We also consider what happens when we place our faith entirely in human wisdom and what outstanding truths the Bible provides that science alone cannot.Join us for an insightful and expositional talk that strengthens the foundation for a faith built on both observation and revelation.

In this mini episode, Dr. Derrick Hines breaks down one of the most surprising findings in modern health research: the strongest predictor of long-term health and longevity isn't nutrition, exercise, or supplements — it's relationships.Drawing from decades-long data, this episode explores how connection, belonging, and social support directly influence inflammation, mental health, resilience, and overall well-being. It reframes health beyond individual habits and highlights why isolation quietly undermines even the best lifestyle choices.Topics Covered:-- What long-term health studies consistently reveal-- Why loneliness and isolation harm physical health-- How relationships influence inflammation and longevity-- Rethinking health beyond diet and exercise alone-- Simple ways to prioritize connection as part of health

We discuss the key risk factors for D2T-RA, including which findings were surprising, as well as the study's major strengths and limitations. The conversation wraps up with thoughts on how this work may shape future research, the potential role of AI in risk modeling, and practical advice for early-career researchers on balancing productivity and sleep.

Muscle has quickly become one of the most talked-about topics in health and longevity, with many claiming that building more muscle is the single greatest predictor of a long life. But is that actually true? On today's episode, I break down the science behind muscle, strength, and lifespan, and explain why more muscle does not automatically equal better health or longer life. I also explain what truly predicts longevity, such as mitochondrial health, nervous system balance, inflammation control, and recovery capacity, and how to find the personal sweet spot that supports long-term vitality.

In 1965 Margaret Crane was a young designer creating packaging for a pharmaceutical company when a scientist gave her a tour of the lab. Looking at the long rows of pregnancy tests she thought, well anyone could do that test at home! So she set about designing a prototype for America's first home pregnancy test. While the design of the prototype was simple, convincing the company, the medical community and conservative social leaders that at-home pregnancy testing was safe and necessary was an uphill climb for Crane, who is only now receiving credit for her contributions to the industry. This show first aired in February 2024. Featuring: Margaret Crane - Graphic designer and inventor of the first home pregnancy test Wendy Kline - Dema G.

In this profound conversation, Dr. Daniel Siegel, clinical professor of psychiatry at UCLA School of Medicine, founding co-director of the Mindful Awareness Research Center, and bestselling author—shares groundbreaking insights on parenting, brain development, and human flourishing.Dr. Daniel Siegel is one of the world's leading experts on interpersonal neurobiology and author of influential books including "The Developing Mind," "Parenting from the Inside Out," "The Whole-Brain Child," and "Mindsight." His work bridges neuroscience, psychology, and contemplative practice.THE CORE PRINCIPLE: INTEGRATIONDaniel Siegel introduces the foundational concept governing well-being across all scales—from neurons to nations.Integration means honoring differences (differentiation) while creating connections (linkage). When integration is blocked, we experience chaos, rigidity, or both. The revolutionary equation: integrative relationships create integrated brains, which generate resilient minds, meaningful relationships, and flourishing lives.TEMPERAMENT VS. PERSONALITY: THE NEUROSCIENCEDr. Siegel reveals cutting-edge research on how temperament—rooted in brain stem connectivity formed in the womb—differs from personality. Temperament is inborn (not necessarily genetic) and characterised by sensitivity and intensity across three core motivational drives: Agency (embodied empowerment), Bonding (relational connection), and Certainty (predictability and safety). Personality develops as we adapt our temperament through experience, particularly attachment relationships.THE BEST PREDICTOR OF CHILD OUTCOMESThe most powerful finding in attachment research: how parents make sense of their own life history predicts their child's development better than what actually happened to them. PRACTICAL PARENTING WISDOMLearn the "4 S's" framework—how children need to be Seen, Soothed, Safe, and Secure. Discover why humans evolved for "alloparenting" with multiple caregivers. Understand the COAL state of mind (Curious, Open, Accepting, Loving) when navigating challenging behaviors.NINE DOMAINS OF INTEGRATIONDr. Siegel explains practical applications: Left-Right Integration (your infant's right-hemisphere communication), Vertical Integration (accessing body wisdom), Memory Integration (transforming implicit memories), and Consciousness Integration (the "Wheel of Awareness" practice).THE MWE IDENTITYDaniel Siegel offers hope: we can raise the next generation with expanded identity—not just "me" but "MWE" (me + we), recognizing we're part of interconnected systems. This shift could transform humanity's trajectory toward collaboration and thriving.Other References: "Mothers and Others" by Sarah Blaffer Hrdy, Roger Sperry's Nobel Prize work (1981), Carol Dweck's research, Ed Tronick's "Still Face Experiment," Jaak Panksepp's affective neuroscience, Mary Helen Immordino-Yang's research(00:00) Introduction (02:59) What is Integration?

In this episode, Dr. Doug sits down with orthopedic spine surgeon Dr. Nick Birch to break down why the T-score alone is not an accurate measure of fracture risk. Dr. Birch explains how REMS imaging adds bone toughness and the fragility score, giving a far clearer picture of real-world bone strength. Together they explore how misinterpreting T-scores leads to fear, misdiagnosis, and unnecessary lifestyle limitations, and how better data can help women stay active and confident.*Get the science behind changing T-scores and REMS results in this live webinar with leading experts.* Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/sI1HCl8vSuuWKfapFN6Fpg?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwMEpFeW1HeW12NzdXSGZPSAEeZXcxUyBosU4K09yxVS2yRX5_pt7aB76KvOjYJLsAhrbbXSJy8Hu0TbeKj2M_aem_G467WAHSeZOk5H9IRxNyrQ*Connect with Dr. Nick Birch*Osteoscan UK: https://www.osteoscanuk.com/International Institute of Musculoskeletal Health Education (IIMHE): https://iimhe.org/
On each of these mini episodes, Catherine and I chat about a new article or new surgical technique in the field of sports medicine. We'll give you our quick take on the most recent data and how this data will impact our practice. Today, we're discussing a brand-new paper hot off the press titled: “Predictors of Tunnel Widening After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction” published in the November 2025 issue of AJSM. This study digs into why femoral and tibial tunnels enlarge after ACL reconstruction with hamstring grafts – and what anatomic and surgical factors might be driving it.Tunnel widening matters: it impacts revision surgery, graft stability, and in some cases early failures. So, this is a clinically meaningful topic. We will start with some background. Tunnel widening after ACL reconstruction is not new…but why it happens is debated. There are a few proposed mechanisms:· Biologic factors: synovial fluid ingress, cytokines, graft necrosis, remodeling.· Mechanical factors: graft motion (“windshield wiper” / “bungee effect”), repetitive shear.· Anatomic factors: posterior tibial slope increasing anterior tibial translation forces.· Surgical factors: fixation method, tunnel position, graft choice (hamstring vs BTB or Quad). This study asked three key questions:1. Does posterior tibial slope (PTS) predict tunnel widening?2. Do meniscus root tears contribute?3. Does adding a lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) influence tunnel change? · This is the first large cohort looking at all these together over 2 years, with both tibial and femoral tunnel measurements. · The study included 307 patients who underwent primary ACL reconstruction using hamstring autograft. The femoral and tibial tunnels were measured immediately postop and again at 2 years. Medial and lateral posterior tibial slope was measured on long-leg lateral radiographs. The authors also looked at the incidence of additional LET, meniscus root injury and BMI.· They used univariate and multivariate regression to determine independent predictors.So, what did they find? Tune in and enjoy the episode!

True success is about what's happening inside, not what's displayed on a shelf.-Emotional Intelligence: The #1 Predictor of SuccessAcross all areas of life, emotional intelligence is the top indicator of future success. It's not about skills or degrees, but about understanding your own feelings and knowing how to manage them.-Failures as the Path to GrowthGrowth comes from failures, not just successes. Learning to let go, forgive, and stop playing the victim is essential. Most successful people have experienced significant failures, which often become their greatest blessings.-The Power of Vulnerability in LeadershipTrue courage in leadership means being open and vulnerable—admitting when you don't have the answers or need help. This authenticity makes leaders stronger and more relatable.-Kindness vs. Niceness: The Power of BoundariesNiceness can be a defense mechanism to avoid conflict, while true kindness starts with setting boundaries and being kind to yourself. You can only be as kind to others as you are to yourself.BUBS Naturals: I use BUBS Naturals daily for focus, recovery, and hydration—all built on a mission to honor a fallen Navy SEAL.

In Part 3 of our Four Horsemen series, we dive into contempt, the most dangerous predictor of relationship breakdown. Kat breaks down what contempt sounds like, why it’s referred to as “relational poison,” and how it impacts both emotional and even physical health. Most importantly, we go over the antidote from Dr. Gottman: building a culture of admiration and respect. Plus, Amy’s Feeling of the Day is sad, but it’s giving her some helpful information about herself and her relationship. Sign up for the Feeling Things newsletter HERE! Watch us on Youtube HERE!
