Lake Michigan stunned him because it looked like the ocean. He had hoped to spot Wisconsin across the water. However, overcast skies and fog hid the far shore. He also apologizes for the hum in the previous episode, his first video session in the studio. Without headphones on, he took the noise for ordinary background sound. The culprit turned out to be a line-level cable plugged in at one end and loose at the other. After tracing it, he rewired the whole desk so every cable is neat and out of harm’s way. Meanwhile, he is still learning the studio’s TriCaster switcher and working on keeping his eyes on the camera. He invites listeners to send suggestions. Additionally, his grandmother had trouble finding the video version on the site. As a result, a site update is coming that uses the alternate enclosure feature, so listeners can switch between video and audio. Time with his grandmother has been a highlight of the trip. Cochrane reflects on how little time he spent with this side of the family after his father moved to Michigan. Next, he flies home to Oregon after some time in Detroit. As the move comes together, he also wants a better way to get recordings off the TriCaster than a USB drive.

The event streamed Wednesday as a pre-recorded film. It was also the first event under CEO John Ternus. He took over from Tim Cook, who became executive chairman, on September 1st. It took Apple seven years to answer Samsung’s first Galaxy Fold. Even so, the price barely moved, since the Duo starts at $1,999. Cochrane admits he hoped for something closer to $1,400. Still, based on the marketing alone, the Duo is the upgrade he is most excited about. The Duo is a book-style foldable that opens along a vertical hinge. Closed, it has a 5.4-inch outer screen and is roughly the size of a passport. Open, it reveals a 7.6-inch display, the largest Apple has put on an iPhone. Both screens share the same proportions, so apps simply scale up to fill the bigger screen. Opened flat, the Duo is just 5.2 millimeters thick, which makes it the thinnest iPhone Apple has built. Closed, it measures 11.3 millimeters and weighs 254 grams. By comparison, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold8 is lighter and thinner at 201 grams and 4.5 millimeters open. The Crease, the Hinge and the Return of Touch ID The crease was Cochrane’s biggest worry, since it is the most common complaint about folding phones. Apple layers the inner screen with a flexible plastic cover, thin glass, and a titanium plate underneath. Custom adhesives let those layers slide as the phone bends. On top, a microscopically etched matte finish scatters reflections to hide the crease. However, Apple only claims the crease is harder to see, not gone. Early hands-on reports split down the middle. Chance Miller at 9to5Mac found it “hard to notice a crease at most angles.” In contrast, Andrew Romero at 9to5Google, working from early videos, said it looks “just as visible” as on Samsung’s Fold8. The hinge uses more than a hundred parts and a row of magnets to hold the phone shut. Cochrane says it snaps open cleanly, which a $2,000 phone should. Notably, the Duo carries an IP68 rating, surviving six meters of water for up to 30 minutes. That matters on a foldable, because dust in the hinge is a classic way these phones die. The Duo also has no Face ID. Instead, a Touch ID fingerprint reader sits in the side button and works open or closed. Cochrane offers his own theory for the switch. With AI now able to generate convincing faces and video, a fingerprint may simply be the safer biometric. Inside the Duo: Chip, Cameras, Software and Battery The Duo runs the A20 Pro, the same chip as the iPhone 18 Pro, built on a two-nanometer process. A vapor chamber carries heat away so the phone can hold full speed longer. Cochrane welcomes that, since his own phone runs hot while charging or running demanding apps. Two 48-megapixel cameras sit on the back, a main and an ultra-wide. The outer screen unlocks the new tricks. For example, you can shoot selfies with the rear cameras, and Duo Preview lets your subjects see the shot. Smart Take snaps the photo when everyone is posing, and Kid Cue plays Peanuts animations to get kids to look at the camera. On the software side, the Duo ships with iOS 27.1. The Dynamic Island now runs vertically along the side, and Split View puts two apps side by side for the first time on an iPhone. Netflix, Zoom and Slack already support it. The Duo carries two batteries, one in each half, and Apple rates it for up to 24 hours of typical use. Charging to 50 percent takes about 20 minutes with a 60-watt adapter. However, that adapter is sold separately, which Cochrane calls out as a raw deal for first-time buyers. MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging run at up to 25 watts. Storage starts at 256GB for $1,999 and climbs to $3,199 for 2TB. Preorders open October 16th, and the Duo reaches stores October 23rd. Ternus called it “the most transformational change to iPhone since the original.” Cochrane still wants one, though the price gives him pause, and he asks listeners whether they plan to buy. Apple Watch Series 12 Checks Your Heart Every Five Seconds Next, Cochrane turns to the Apple Watch Series 12 and its new Health Sensing System. The watch reads your pulse by shining green light into your skin and measuring what bounces back. After wrestling with the technical term, photoplethysmography, he notes that everyone sensibly calls it the optical sensor. Apple made those lights bigger and more efficient. As a result, the watch now checks your heart rate every five seconds, all day. It also measures heart rate variability, the tiny wobble between beats, as often as every five minutes. A bigger wobble generally means your body is rested and recovered. Cochrane loved Apple’s swimming ad, where a swimmer finishes his swim and checks his heart rate. To him, it feels far more futuristic than the rugged adventure watches of twenty years ago. Swim tracking itself isn’t new. What changed is the constant background check and a live heart rate readout on the watch face. All of that feeds a new daily readiness score from zero to ten. It weighs your recent activity, training load, vitals and sleep, then updates through the day. Engadget points out that competitors already offer readiness scores and faster sampling. In Cochrane’s view, Apple is catching up to the market, but doing it in a big way. Apple’s Heart Rate Accuracy Study Apple claims no wearable reads heart rate more accurately, and this time it published the study. Testers wore a Series 12 on one wrist and a rival on the other, with a Polar H10 chest strap as the reference. The rivals came from Garmin, Google, Huawei, Samsung, WHOOP and Oura. Across 1,254 people at five sites, Apple led in 139 of 159 comparisons. Eighteen were too close to call. The only two losses went to Google’s Pixel Watch 4 at rest, by less than half a beat per minute. Cochrane appreciated that a fifth of participants had the darkest skin tones, where optical sensors have historically struggled. The Series 12 comes in 42- and 46-millimeter sizes, including a new ceramic version. Battery life holds at 24 hours, and fifteen minutes of charging now buys up to twelve hours. Pricing starts at $399 for aluminum, $699 for titanium and $899 for ceramic. It reaches stores September 18th. Health Age and Apple’s Rebuilt Health App Cochrane admits he first misread this feature, and he is glad his initial read turned out wrong. Apple is rebuilding the Health app around Apple Intelligence, its umbrella name for its AI features. The app adds an Insights tab, a For You section, and a Longevity tab covering seven areas of health. Sumbul Desai, a physician who runs health and fitness at Apple, framed the goal. She said pairing the watch’s sensors with Apple Intelligence lets Apple “translate complex biometric data into clear guidance for users.” In other words, nobody wants to scroll through a spreadsheet of their own heartbeats. Inside the Longevity tab sits Health Age. It weighs your VO2 max, resting heart rate, sleep, and heart rate variability against your real age. You can also add lab results like A1c and LDL cholesterol. Apple’s sample screen shows a body running 3.9 years younger than its birthday. Cochrane finds the feature interesting, and he hopes the data stays private, much like health records at a hospital. However, Apple didn’t share the math behind Health Age. He would like Apple to publish its formula, because people will take a number like that seriously. The new app also adds at-home movement evaluations using the iPhone camera and the watch. Users can book a $119 blood panel covering more than 50 biomarkers at roughly 2,000 Quest Diagnostics locations. Cycle Tracking gains perimenopause and menopause support. The redesigned app arrives later this year, while watchOS 27 lands September 14th. Finally, Cochrane raises a concern about all this monitoring. He hopes Apple built strong safeguards around the health data, because a leak of data like this would bring serious lawsuits. Apple Watch Ultra 4 Can Outlast a 100-Mile Race The Apple Watch Ultra 4 shares nearly everything with the Series 12, from the sensors to the S11 chip. This year, what sets it apart is stamina. Normal use now reaches 50 hours, up from 42, and Low Power Mode stretches to 84. Meanwhile, fifteen minutes on the charger buys up to 18 hours, where last year’s model managed 12. A new Max Extended Workout mode tracks up to 45 hours of running or hiking, with GPS logging every second. Apple says that is typically enough to finish a 100-mile race. The watch also uses dual-frequency GPS, which listens to two satellite signals to reject readings bounced off tall buildings. DC Rainmaker came away impressed with both watches. As Ray Maker put it, “I’d argue they’re the biggest leaps in Apple Watch hardware and features since they launched the Ultra series back a few years ago.” The Ultra 4 holds at $799 and ships September 18th. Audio Intelligence and the Always-Listening Question Both new watches also gain a set of listening features Apple calls Audio Intelligence. Sound Recognition alerts deaf or hard-of-hearing users to sirens, alarms, doorbells, or a crying baby. Shazam names nearby songs without being asked. Then come the two raising eyebrows: Live Rewind and Siri Recap. Live Rewind shows the last fifteen seconds of your conversation as text with a double press of the Digital Crown. Siri Recap hands you a title and key points after a conversation, leaving out financial details and ID numbers. Both arrive in beta later this year, in English first, and need an iPhone 16 or newer. Cochrane saw the pushback coming. To replay fifteen seconds, the watch has to be listening before you ask. Apple answers with privacy promises, including that everything is opt-in and raw audio is deleted after processing on the chip. Still, he argues that opting in means choosing to give up privacy, and he has a hard time believing the processing stays on the device. AirPods 5 Bring Noise Canceling to $129 AirPods 5 comes in two versions, and the headline is price. Until now, noise cancellation in the regular AirPods cost $179. Both AirPods 5 models include it, starting at $129. Noise canceling is harder in the regular AirPods, because they lack the rubber tips that seal your ear. Apple’s AirPods marketing director Eric Treski admitted as much in 2024, calling it “really, really hard to create this great ANC quality in a non-ear-tip product.” Nevertheless, Apple says AirPods 5 removes up to 50 percent more outside noise than AirPods 4 with noise canceling. Interestingly, the chip and microphones are unchanged. The gain comes from reworked vents and ports in the shell, plus smarter software. For perspective, Apple says AirPods Pro 3 still cancel up to three times more noise. Gizmodo found AirPods 5 “did a good job silencing the background noise, but not entirely.” The $129 model charges over USB-C. For $149, you add a wireless charging case, a Find My speaker, a volume swipe on the stem, and an extra hour of listening. Both models also carry an IP57 rating and support Live Translation. They reach stores September 18th. How Apple Filmed the Event Cochrane closes by praising the production itself. Apple built different scenes and backgrounds throughout the film, and Six Colors noted a Hollywood backlot segment with a fake rainstorm, Roman soldiers, and astronauts. The closing card read “Shot on iPhone. Edited on Mac.” He still hopes to get an iPhone Duo, though he isn’t sure about paying two grand. For now, he may stick with his current phone. Cochrane wraps up by pointing listeners to the GNC Insider program, the newsletter, and podcastapps.com, adding that he likes Pocket Casts. Listeners can reach Ray or Chris at geeknews@gmail.com. He flies back to Oregon next, with another audio episode planned for Monday and a video site update coming this week.

Sea Squirt Plasmalogens Show Brain And Aging Benefits In Old Mice Aged mice given purified plasmalogen supplements showed better memory performance, healthier synaptic structure, lower neuroinflammation, and increased signaling tied to neurite growth and synapse development, with treated mice even growing thicker, darker, glossier hair. Plasmalogens are specialized lipids concentrated in cell membranes and the brain that tend to decline with age and neurodegenerative disease, making them an intriguing target for cognitive longevity. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why membrane composition matters for brain signaling, mitochondrial function, and inflammation, while stressing that this remains mouse research from 2022 and does not mean eating sea squirts or taking an unproven plasmalogen supplement will reproduce the same effects in humans. Sources: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260902234518.htm https://doi.org/10.3389/fmolb.2022.815320 ~~ Apple Watch Series 12 Adds More HRV Data, Readiness Scoring, And Health Age Apple Watch Series 12 pushes deeper into health tracking with heart rate measurements every five seconds, substantially more frequent HRV sampling, a new daily Readiness score, and a Longevity section in the Health app featuring Health Age. Apple is also expanding its health ecosystem with daytime vitals, movement assessments, menopause tracking, and Quest Diagnostics lab ordering for more than fifty biomarkers. Host Dave Asprey explains why higher-frequency wearable data can become useful for spotting changes in stress, recovery, sleep, and illness, but warns against letting algorithmic scores override your own baseline, symptoms, and real-world performance. Source: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2026/09/introducing-apple-watch-series-12-with-the-all-new-health-sensing-system/ ~~ FDA Moves To Accelerate Botanical Drug Development The FDA has opened a formal request for input on how to accelerate botanical drug development, including better clinical trial designs, stronger quality standards, improved standardization of complex plant mixtures, and expanded use of real-world evidence. The agency is also working with the European Medicines Agency on regulatory considerations for herbal and botanical medicines, potentially creating a clearer path for standardized plant-derived therapies to move beyond vague supplement claims and into more rigorous clinical testing. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why this could strengthen the evidence behind compounds like berberine, saffron, medicinal mushrooms, and flavanols, while also warning that more pharmaceutical-style regulation could increase costs and reduce access. Source: https://www.healthmanagement.com/insights/weekly-roundup-v2/september-9-2026/ ~~ Persistent Adolescent Cannabis Use Linked To Long-Term IQ And Cognitive Decline A long-running New Zealand birth cohort found that people with persistent cannabis dependence beginning in adolescence showed significant cognitive decline by age thirty-eight, including losses in IQ, memory, processing speed, attention, and executive function. The most persistent users showed an average decline of roughly eight IQ points, while adult-onset users did not show the same pattern, pointing toward adolescence as a potentially important developmental vulnerability window. Host Dave Asprey explains why this 2012 observational study cannot prove cannabis caused every cognitive change, but argues that dose, frequency, age of exposure, and brain development all matter when evaluating cannabis for performance, health, or therapeutic use. Source: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3479587/ ~~ Pterostilbene Helps Mouse Muscle Cells Burn More Fat Through PPAR-Delta Researchers testing pterostilbene, a polyphenol found in blueberries and grapes, found that it reduced intracellular fat accumulation and increased fatty acid oxidation in cultured mouse muscle cells. Rather than directly activating PPAR-delta, pterostilbene appeared to slow its breakdown, leaving more of the protein available to regulate genes involved in fat metabolism and potentially offering a new mechanistic target for myosteatosis and metabolic dysfunction. Host Dave Asprey explains why the PPAR-delta mechanism is interesting for metabolic health, but draws a clear line between promising cell research and human outcomes, emphasizing that resistance training, walking, muscle mass, and mitochondrial health still have far stronger evidence than taking blueberry extracts to reduce muscle fat. Sources: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260903064219.htm https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fbio.2026.109519 https://www.reddit.com/r/Biohackers/comments/1w8flq4/compound_in_blueberries_may_help_muscle_cells/ ~~ This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity enthusiasts, and high-performance listeners who want emerging research on brain aging, wearables, botanical medicine, cannabis, metabolic health, and supplements translated into what matters for human biology. Host Dave Asprey separates promising mechanisms from premature hype and explains how to evaluate new health research through the lens of evidence quality, dose, biological context, and measurable outcomes.

In this lively episode of Doc Tales with Cocktails, Dr. May and Tim Hindmarsh tackle everything from bizarre fast-food crimes and questionable healthcare practices to a decades-old vaccine lawsuit making headlines. They discuss a McDonald's employee facing criminal charges after tampering with a customer's food, explore the dangers of social media-fueled decision-making, and break down the legal case of a convicted murderer who argued his life sentence ended when his heart temporarily stopped. The conversation then shifts to a controversial lawsuit involving an experimental RSV vaccine from the 1960s and broader concerns about medical ethics, informed consent, and pharmaceutical accountability. Plus, Dr. May shares a listener-submitted story involving concierge medicine, blood draws at a private residence, and the importance of vetting healthcare providers. As always, expect plenty of humor, candid commentary, and a few unexpected detours along the way. In This Episode A McDonald's employee faces felony charges after contaminating a customer's fries The role social media plays in poor decision-making A prison inmate's unusual legal argument about a life sentence ending after clinical death The history of vaccine-associated antibody enhancement (VADE) A lawsuit involving a 1960s RSV vaccine trial Medical ethics, informed consent, and government research programs Direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical advertising Concierge medicine concerns and "kitchen table" blood draws How to research and verify healthcare providers Listener questions and healthcare transparency Key Takeaways Social media can amplify impulsive decisions with lifelong consequences. Informed consent remains a foundational principle of ethical medicine. Patients should understand where their lab work is processed and how healthcare services are billed. Verifying provider credentials and disciplinary history is easier than ever and can help patients make informed healthcare decisions. Transparency builds trust between patients and healthcare professionals.

Guest: Richard M. Anderson Date: 3-27 LIVE 5-7 pm EST TOPIC: Humanity's Clock is Ticking: Are We Doomed or Destined for the Stars? About the author Richard Anderson is a San Jose State University alumnus with a master's degree in microbiology. His studies also emphasized molecular biology and biochemistry. Several years after earning his MA, Richard obtained a Clinical Laboratory Bioanalyst license. In subsequent years, he worked in various administrative and technical management roles in laboratory settings, beginning his first assignment as a clinical laboratory director in 1993. In 2006, he began working in a reference laboratory for Quest Diagnostics; he continued working in various Quest laboratories as a laboratory administrative director and technical director. Shortly before the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, Richard began exploring research areas that had caught his attention during his studies and employment years. As a result of his research, new information came to light that sparked his enthusiasm. As the pandemic engulfed the world, research and writing his first non-fiction book, "The Evolution of Life," filled the voids left by relative isolation. The completion of this book prompted the creation of his fiction series, "Outbound," looking into the future of humanity off-planet. Richard lives with his wife in California's south San Francisco Bay area, close to their children and grandchildren.

Can marijuana use really be costing businesses millions? In this episode of the Drug Report Podcast, we unpack a revealing study from the American Journal of Preventative Medicine that draws a stark connection between cannabis use disorder and rising workplace absenteeism. From the financial strain on employers to the ripple effects on the economy, we analyze the true cost of marijuana in the workplace. We also bring to light alarming data from Quest Diagnostics, showing a surge in marijuana positivity rates, particularly following workplace accidents. Join us as we discuss the crucial need for robust drug prevention and treatment policies to sustain a safe and efficient work environment.But that's not all—we also expose a worrying trend within Pennsylvania's medical marijuana program. Through a gripping story from a Pennsylvania series, we uncover how doctors with checkered pasts, including drug dealing and revoked medical licenses, are still issuing medical marijuana cards. This revelation prompts us to question the integrity of medical marijuana programs and the potential for similar issues nationwide. We emphasize the vital role of media in shining a light on such misconduct and discuss the broader implications for the medical community and public trust. Tune in for a comprehensive look into these critical issues affecting workplace dynamics and public health.Follow the work of SAM and FDPS below:https://learnaboutsam.org/https://gooddrugpolicy.org/https://thedrugreport.org/On X: https://twitter.com/learnaboutsamhttps://twitter.com/GoodDrugPolicyhttps://twitter.com/KevinSabethttps://twitter.com/LukeNiforatosOn Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/learnaboutsam

Steve Becker is committed to improving human health by unlocking the power of molecular diagnostics. In the world of medical devices and diagnostics, you might think the latter falls under the purview of the former, says Steve, yet: “from a regulatory standpoint, diagnostics is covered by a lot of the medical device rules.” Unlike medical devices like implants, however, “diagnostics is really the ability to measure your body, whether you're healthy or sick; and if you are sick, what's making you sick. Helping to uncover your health status and what you can do to improve is really the heart of diagnostics.”  In this episode, Steve shares the lasting lessons learned during his stints at Thermo Fisher, Quest Diagnostics, Agilent, and GE Healthcare, where he directed sales, global marketing, business development, and licensing. Learn how to navigate within a constantly changing healthcare business landscape, from the first steps toward launch to the regulatory requirements and cultural differences that can affect development, distribution, and product adoption.   Going to market on one's own is a big task, says Steve – find the right partners to mitigate the commercial regulatory tasks and technical risks. Ultimately, the company whose name is on the product assumes the liability – “they're the ones on the hook” – but relying on specialists along the way improves your chances of a streamlined launch.  During his tenure at Quest Diagnostics, the company built a “global diagnostics network,” pooling the capabilities, diagnostics insights, samples, testing and sharing of leading companies into one place. In the end, Quest brought the first Zika test to market, reliant upon colleagues.  In fact, choosing your initial target audiences can come into play even during development, as “diseases become more localized and companies are made for those markets,” Steve adds. Pay attention to “how to get paid for what you do,” your reimbursement strategy. In diagnostics, for example, ask yourself:  Is it going to measure what we say it's going to measure? (Analytic or clinical validity)  Can we do anything with the information? (Utility)  Interestingly, reimbursement can often become political; for example, in the US it's widely accepted that breast cancer can come with a genetic indicator (the BRCA gene) – and the patient can take prophylactic steps or opt for watchful waiting. In contrast, Steve says that:  In a single-payer system, if you were 49 you could take the [BRCA] test; if 50, no test. The calculation includes risk, quality of life, total cost – someone makes a decision, snapped the line, and that's where it landed.  Add to that differences stemming from culture and tradition, and it makes sense to work with local, in-country partners to navigate your go-to-market strategy, especially with regard to regulatory requirements.  To date, Steve says that European companies would often launch first domestically and then in the US because it was easier, but that's starting to change as the EU changes its regulatory stance.  Regulations are stricter now in Europe, with liability going as far back as the manufacturer – for translation quality, for example. Diagnostic tests are now treated more like a medical device, including review by regulatory bodies, etc. – it's a lot more work but it's a good thing.  Think globally but act locally, Steve adds. You may use the same assay (investigative procedure for qualitatively or quantitatively measuring the presence, amount, or functional activity of an element) as in the US but a local company can handle the technology, packaging, regulatory requirements, approvals, and clinical evidence and market under THEIR brand, with their own branding and local language. This happens consistently, across IV diagnostic companies – Abbott, Siemens, Roche, Thermo Fisher – and all of them have to treat each of their launches “locally,” working with in-country regulatory bodies to get approvals.  And vice versa: one of the first Covid tests distributed in the US was manufactured by a Korean company but marketed as a known American brand. In fact, working with companies around the world has interesting and complex effects on branding – “you'll get a multi-national brand but lose some efficiencies,” according to Steve.  In the end, Steve's advice is ever so simple: “You don't want to take risks in the healthcare world.”    Links:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevebecker/    Connect with Wendy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendypease/  Music: Fiddle-De-Dee by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com 

Genetics is the transcript of your own personal health. We often perceive it as something that dictates that health issues are hereditary but the truth is that no one was born with chronic illnesses. In what way should we then perceive and interpret genetics?In this episode, Dr. Krista Kostroman is joined by Dr. Mansoor Mohammed, PhD. Dr. Mansoor is one of the founding members of The DNA Company as he had committed his life into studying genetics and all fields that revolve around it. He is a recognized authority in the fields of medical genomics and personalized medicine. He is the holder of several patents in the general fields of molecular diagnostics and genomics research. Dr. Mohammed completed his doctoral dissertation at the University of Guelph, Canada, majoring in both Molecular Immunology and Transgenic Technologies. He completed postdoctoral training in Clinical Cytogenetics at both UCLA and Baylor College of Medicine.Prior to becoming the scientific founder of The DNA Company, Dr. Mohammed co-founded Younique Genomics, served as the President and CEO of CombiMatrix Diagnostics—where he oversaw the development of one of the most comprehensive genomics testing menus in the diagnostic industry—and was the Director of Advanced Technologies at Quest Diagnostics, where he was honored with the Medical Innovation Award, the highest accolade given for excellence in medical research. Prior to his role at Quest Diagnostics, Dr. Mohammed was a founder and Director of Research and Development at Spectral Genomics. At Spectral Genomics, Dr. Mohammed pioneered the development of commercial Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) array technologies and was responsible for the design and launch of the industry's first commercially available CGH arrays.Together, Dr. Krista and Dr. Mansoor go through the different stages and understandings of DNA that Dr. Mansoor went through - calling this the four epochs of his career.During the first epoch, Dr. Mansoor invented this whole genome technology where he studied human antibodies, and looked into animal models in order to deepen the study on the human's genetic makeup. This led him to founding companies such as Spectral Genomics and with the knowledge that they had at that time, they were able to focus on what was broken with the human body and used the study of DNA to find solutions to this. Moving on to 2011, he entered the second epoch of his career where he was questioned why they do not delve further than what was broken. This initiated Dr. Mansoor to dive deeper and study genomics with the addition of functional genomics. After continually studying what is unknown regarding a person's genomics, then comes the birth of The DNA Company. This story showcases how our clinicians today are able to prevent any possible illness by looking into a person's unique genetic makeup - even down to the body's smallest nuances.Onto the third epoch, the amount of information gathered must be handled with care so as not to dilute it in a soundbite that suggests that science is binary but rather give science its due right. This was when he realized that there was more to be done and stepped away to focus on studying yet continually serving people.Lastly, the fourth epoch dives into the study of hormone replacement and the continuous journey of advocating and researching for optimal human health, nutrition, lifestyle, and environment. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Keep yourself up to date on The DNA Talks Podcast! The DNA Talks Podcast Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dnatalkspodcast/Dr. Krista Kostroman's Official Instagram Page https://www.instagram.com/drkostromanofficial/This episode may also be viewed on YouTube

Don't believe the jobs reports: it's a tough labor market out there, and not in the way you're thinking. 44% of workers have what's considered a bad job, which is defined as a high risk, low wage position. The majority of these jobs are frontline, hourly positions, with little to no consistency or benefits. These organizations have some of the highest turnover rates, costing the U.S. economy 1 Trillion dollars per year.  This is where today's guest Zeynep Ton has set her sights on fixing. Zeynep is a professor of the practice in the operations management group at MIT Sloan School of Management and president of the nonprofit Good Jobs Institute, whose mission is to help companies thrive by creating good jobs and to redefine what it means to run a successful business. Her organization has advised the likes of Quest Diagnostics, Mud Bay, and many more. Zeynep's work and research on the benefits of supporting good jobs has been featured in publications like The Atlantic, the New York Times, and more, culminating in her book, “The Good Jobs Strategy: How the Smartest Companies Invest in Employees to Lower Costs and Boost Profits”. We wanted to catch up with Zeynep to hear first hand about why it's important to design good jobs for workers, and how it benefits everyone from the top to bottom of an organization. This is another one you're not going to want to miss, so with that…let's bring it in!
