This episode features Dr Madhurangi Perera (Cancer and Palliative Care Outcomes Centre, School of Nursing and  Australia Centre for Healthcare Transformation, Faculty of Health, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, QLD, Australia)   What is already known about the topic? Providing palliative and supportive care in the home setting for people with heart failure is advantageous because care can be provided in accordance with an individual's way of life. Home-based palliative and supportive care for people with heart failure has the potential to improve person and caregiver outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.   What this paper adds? The components of home-based palliative and supportive care are symptom management; expert communication; multidisciplinary team involvement; continuity of care; education; end-of-life discussions; and caregiver support. While initiation of care, the services provided in the home-setting and health care approaches provided differed across the reported studies, in all included studies, nursing staff were strategically placed to provide a wide range of services in the home-setting. Continuous and early liaison between cardiology, palliative care and primary care providers is needed to provide continuous, non-fragmented care.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy The detailed findings of this review which highlight the components of home-based palliative and supportive care can provide guidance to enable health care providers to tailor care for this population. Future research into the perspectives of people with heart failure on each of the identified components and their implementation will assist service providers to gain a better understanding of how to enable home-based palliative and supportive care for persons with heart failure.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/02692163241290350   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

Are you worried about food security in Australia? Maybe you should be. For the most part, we have it pretty good- but to maintain market access and get food to where it needs to be, more work needs to be done. This is the first of a three part series on sustainable food production. In this episode we're looking at food security and food system shocks with producers and researchers. Thanks to Dr Rudi Messner and Dr Carol Richards for their insights and their fascinating research, funded by Australian Research Council and supported by the Queensland University of Technology and Meat and Livestock Australia. Thanks again to the many producers involved in the project who gave up their time and expertise.

Wellness and self care- they aren't concepts talked about too often when you're running a busy farming business. But should they be? This is the second episode in a series with Dr Carol Richards and Dr Rudi Messner- researchers from the Queensland University of Technology. We'll hear what producers are doing to look after themselves and by default their businesses and how goals are being achieved, no matter what grazing system is utilised. Thanks to Dr Rudi Messner and Dr Carol Richards, for their insights and their fascinating research, funded by Australian Research Council and supported by the Queensland University of Technology and Meat and Livestock Australia. Thanks again to the many producers involved in the project who gave up their time and expertise.

When Queensland University of Technology researchers Dr Carol Richards and Dr Rudi Messner first embarked on a social research project into sustainable grazing they found an unexpected gem. Everyone wanted to talk about it, but not many understood it. Some had dismissed it from their businesses, some couldn't wait to incoporate it. Carbon. It's well understood it's going to be part of beef businesses long into the future, but there's still a lot of murky detail about how it works, how we measure it and how we relate it to grazing businesses. In this final episode of our sustainable grazing series, we hear from Professor David Rowlings, a grazier from Southern Queensland and an expert in carbon sequestration. Thanks to Dr Rudi Messner and Dr Carol Richards, for their insights and their fascinating research, funded by Australian Research Council and supported by the Queensland University of Technology and Meat and Livestock Australia.

After the BRICS meeting in Kazan, a picture of a bundle of fake BRICS banknotes began to circulate online. Right up to a picture of Putin holding one, like a mobster holds a cigar. The intent was mocking. But while the end goal of the kind of paper that rappers shove into g-strings is still a long way off - in the background, the bureaucratic elves of BRICS were chipping away at the dense, dull, paperwork of a new payments system. This was never going to be a big bang. More like popping the world's biggest roll of bubble wrap. After all, like the nuclear secrets themselves, the mechanism for making a new international method for the settlement of accounts is an obscure and technical thing. And it is eighty years since anyone tried to do it from scratch. Few people are better placed to be the Robert Oppenheimer to this kind of project than Warwick Powell. Powell is Adjunct Professor at Queensland University of Technology and the author of "China, Trust and Digital Supply Chains”, and "Dynamics of a Zero Trust World".At his Substack, he blogs about China, trade, and the dense subterranean plumbing network that underlies the global payments system.

Artificial Intelligence chatbots have come such a long way in a really short time.Each release of ChatGPT brings new features, like voice chat, along with updates to the training data fed into the systems, supposed to make them smarter. But are more leaps forward a sure thing? Or could the tools actually get dumber?Today, Aaron Snoswell from the generative AI lab at the Queensland University of Technology discusses the limitations of large language models like ChatGPT. He explains why some observers fear ‘model collapse', where more mistakes creep in as the systems start ‘inbreeding', or consuming more AI created content than original human created works. Aaron Snoswell says these models are essentially pattern matching machines, which can lead to surprising failures. He also discusses the massive amounts of data required to train these models and the creative ways companies are sourcing this data. The AI expert also touches on the concept of artificial general intelligence and the challenges in achieving it. Featured: Aaron Snoswell, senior research fellow at the generative AI lab at the Queensland University of TechnologyKey Topics:Artificial IntelligenceChatGPTLarge Language ModelsModel CollapseAI Training DataArtificial General IntelligenceResponsible AI DevelopmentGenerative AI

This year's BRICS summit has concluded in the Russian city of Kazan. The message from the three-day event is clear: the global reality is changing, and the developing world wants to have adequate representation.Following more than a decade of development, the BRICS has come to a stage where its international influence must be taken seriously. Its member countries are home to 45 percent of the global population, and they account for more than a third of the global economy.In this edition of program, we explore how the BRICS is working to turn its visions into reality. Host Ding Heng is joined by Professor Wang Zhengxu from the School of Public Administration, Zhejiang University; Warwick Powell, Senior Fellow with Taihe Institute and Adjunct Professor with Queensland University of Technology; Emmanuel Matambo, Research Director of the Center for Africa-China Studies, University of Johannesburg.

What's really going on in Australia's property market? In this episode, we sit down with Cameron Kusher, Executive Director of Economic Research at REA Group, to unpack the trends shaping the Australian property market right now. With access to some of the country's most comprehensive property data, Cameron sheds light on what buyers are searching for, where listings are rising, and how this all connects to transactions and prices. We dig into regional differences in price growth—why places like Perth and Adelaide are surging, while Melbourne struggles—and what's driving these changes. Cameron explains how the rental market is finally loosening up, making it easier for sellers to transition, and we discuss the growing influence of investors in certain areas. We also talk through the impact of interest rates and how expectations of future cuts are influencing sellers' behaviour. There's a fascinating shift happening with buyers too—more selectiveness, fewer bidders at auctions, and changing preferences driven by necessity rather than desire. We touch on how affordability is pushing renters out to the fringes, and Cameron shares insights into how the work-from-anywhere trend is reshaping migration patterns. This episode really gets under the hood of the property market. If you're curious about how things are tracking and what's around the corner, you won't want to miss it!

Dr. Dave Schramm and Dr. Liz Hale welcome renowned marriage experts, Dr. Christian Heim and Dr. Caroline Heim, from Australia. They discuss insights from the largest global study on long-term relationships, revealing the key elements that make marriages last. The conversation highlights the importance of commitment, altruism, and shared values while addressing the challenges of hyper-individualism, social isolation, and mental health struggles. Whether you're single, married, or in a long-term relationship, this episode offers invaluable tools and perspectives to strengthen your relationship. #marraigeadvice #resilience #marraigeresilience #makingmarriagework About: Christian Heim FRANZCP, PhD is a psychiatrist, a Clinical Director in Mental Health Services, Senior Lecturer in the School of Medicine at the University of Queensland and a Churchill Fellow. Christian gives keynotes internationally on preventative mental health. In private psychiatry, he subspecializes in war-related and severe childhood sexual trauma, and couple therapy where mental illness is prominent. Christian publishes books and journal articles in the area of preventative mental health. His latest book was co-authored with Caroline Heim: Resilient Relationships: techniques for surviving hyper-individualism, social isolation and a mental health crisis. (Routledge, 2023). Caroline Heim is an Associate Professor at Queensland University of Technology. She has published two books in theatre studies and is a global authority on the psychology of relationships in the theatre. Caroline gives keynotes internationally and her numerous articles cover various topics from audiences to the mental health of university students. Specialising in empirical research, she has interviewed over 300 people internationally. Before entering academia, Caroline studied theatre and worked in New York winning a Drama League Award. Insights: Christian: "it doesn't matter how you do it. There are different ways to do things however your relationship works, is the way that your relationship works. Don't feel that you've got to find a formula, but the key to me is that your relationship is your greatest asset, and that means that it'll take some nurturing, it'll take some investment, it'll take time, energy and effort, but gosh, it's worthwhile." Caroline: "'I'd say probably, is altruism, our second finding. Because, as I said, it's not much in the literature. And these couples that put the others needs before there's I could see that they had, again, this strong connection. And. So as we said, it's hard to do that in a in a society that says that everything's got to be about me, and it's about my needs, and if I'm not getting what I want from this relationship, then I'm out of here. But as one, as many of the couples actually said it's much easier to walk away and then to stay and fight for your marriage, you and me against the world, basically." Dave: "At so many levels, I love this idea of, I'll call it search inward, turn outward. That's how I like to think of this searching or what are my values and what are our values, and then turning outward with that altruism and how, what can I do for my spouse or my partner today to make their day better? It's this outward mindset, really, of thinking about the we rather than the me. I haven't heard that term hyper individualism, but man, I think that's, that's spot on. I feel like that's like the number one killer in relationships today." Liz: "You know what I'm really happy to hear Caroline and Christian say is that has benefited their marriage, because this five year study, I doubt there was a lot of income they were getting from this study. There was a lot of giving and listening and noting, and so I'm so pleased that there was this flip effect of blessing your own marriage. Really happy to hear that for you and another takeaway, I mean, one of my favorite events with the recent Olympic Olympics was synchronized diving, and I never thought about it to go for the gold. That the more difficult, the more points, the more opportunity for gold. I thought that was just brilliant."

Sleep disturbances, such as insomnia, sleep fragmentation, excessive daytime sleepiness, and REM sleep behavior disorder are common in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Poor sleep quality can also impact other domains of function, including motor function. Prior research has shown that a type of photoreceptor cell in the retina, called melanopsin cells, provide the main light signals to the brain to initiate sleep, and function of these cells is impaired in PD. Dr. Beatix Feigl and her colleagues developed a novel light therapy intervention that selectively activates the melanopsin photoreceptor cells, and in this episode, she discusses the results of a recent randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of this melanopsin photoreceptor-directed light therapy on sleep and circadian rhythm, as well as motor behaviors. She also discusses her earlier work on melanopsin cells that led to the development of standard measures to assess their function. Beatrix is an Ophthalmologist and an Associate Professor in the School of Biomedical Sciences and Center for Vision and Eye Research, as well as the Faculty of Health, at the Queensland University of Technology.This podcast is geared toward researchers and clinicians. If you live with Parkinson's or have a friend or family member with PD, listen to The Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson's Podcast.

The ‘origami' superpowers of a single-celled pond hunter, it hunts by launching a neck-like proboscis that can extend more than 30 times its body length. Manu Prakash of Stanford University reveals the amazing mathematical mechanisms of the protist, Lacrymaria olor. Research from Elana Hobkirk at Durham University has found that the process of domestication and selective breeding has limited the ability of domestic dogs to use facial expressions to convey emotions as effectively as their wolf ancestors. Whilst we may be easily manipulated by the ‘puppy eyes' of our pet dogs, they are no longer able to display the same range of emotions that wolves can, who need strong visual communication to maintain their packs. Who discovered the first black hole? Science writer Marcus Chown tells us about the discovery of Cygnus X-1 discovered by Paul Murdin and Louise Webster in 1971. And 100 years ago this week, Indian physicist Satyendra Nath Bose posted his revolutionary paper to Albert Einstein, which went on to influence quantum mechanics, low-temperature physics, atomic physics, and the physics of the particles that shape the Universe. Physicist Ajoy Ghatak and presenter Roland Pease discuss the story of the man who had the word ‘boson' coined to memorialise him in the late 1920s. Also in the longer podcast version: It's a microbe-eat-microbe world out there, with bacteria waging constant war against each other. It's by dipping into their ever-evolving chemical arsenal that we keep our pharmacies supplied with the antibiotics we use to fight infectious bacteria - and computer biologist Luis Coelho of Queensland University of Technology has turned to genetics and AI to speed up the search for novel compounds.
