“The amount of chaos that's been introduced into the federal health policy landscape is unprecedented,” says Michelle Mello, professor at Stanford Law School and the Stanford University School of Medicine.That turmoil, she explains, has left major gaps in expertise, trust, and leadership—and states are rushing to fill the void. In this episode of Stanford Legal, host Pamela S. Karlan talks with Mello about what this moment means for the future of science, public health, research, and the law.Mello describes how the hollowing out of career expertise at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has upended vaccine policy and research funding, forcing states into unfamiliar leadership roles. She and Karlan also unpack how shifting scientific guidance during the pandemic eroded public confidence, how politicized grant-making is reshaping the research ecosystem, and state governments' growing role in creating what she calls a “shadow CDC.”Despite the turmoil, Mello points to a few bright spots: state-level experimentation could generate valuable evidence of what works and what does not, and there are reassuring signs from the lower courts, she says, which she believes are capable of separating law from politics.Earlier this year, Mello explored many of these themes in her JAMA Health Forum paper, “The Hard Road Ahead for State Public Health Departments.”Links:Michelle Mello >>> Stanford Law pageJAMA Health Forum paper >>> “The Hard Road Ahead for State Public Health DepartmentsConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>> Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageDiego Zambrano >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X (00:00:00) Health Policy and COVID-19 Vaccines(00:05:10) The Vaccine Rollout Challenges(00:10:25) Public Trust and Recommendations(00:16:40) The Role of the Vaccine Committee(00:23:55) NIH Grant Process Insight(00:29:43) MIT's Stance on NIH Compact Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Key Points Jesse was diagnosed with grade 2 astrocytoma in March 2023 after experiencing a grand mal seizure at 4:30 AM with no prior symptoms indicating something was wrong.Surgery successfully resected approximately 85% of the brain tumor located in Jesse's left frontal lobe, but complete removal would have caused permanent paralysis on his right side.Conflicting medical opinions emerged as the neurosurgeon recommended watch and wait approach while the radiation oncologist insisted on immediate radiation and chemotherapy treatment.Decision was made to postpone standard cancer treatment in favor of holistic approaches including cannabis oil after learning about a promising trial drug called voracitinib.Contact with Corrie Yelland was established through a Facebook group recommendation from another astrocytoma patient who had success with RSO cannabis oil treatment.Initial cannabis protocol included one gram of RSO daily by suppository, CBD-CBG oral combination, eight-strain mix with 20-25% CBD, nasal spray, and comprehensive vitamin supplements.Remarkable improvement occurred within six weeks as MRI scans showed complete disappearance of tumor enhancement areas and one crescent-shaped tumor section, leading oncologists to unanimously approve watch and wait approach.Growing and producing cannabis oil became necessary due to cost considerations, requiring significant learning curve for indoor and outdoor cultivation within legal medical license framework.Medical team acknowledged Jesse's inspiring approach to taking health into his own hands, though they did not request documentation of the successful holistic protocol.Final MRI results showed no evidence of disease after over 900 days, which Jesse processed emotionally over the course of a week before feeling significantly lighter and more optimistic.Perspective on life priorities fundamentally changed with greater focus on meaningful activities and relationships while reducing stress over previously important but ultimately trivial matters.Recommendation emphasized patients should actively research treatment options, make informed decisions about their own healthcare, and seek medical teams who will listen and support patient choices.

The Anglican Church in North America (ACNA) is a small but mighty denomination. As I have written elsewhere, Anglicanism has the potential to breathe new life into the evangelical movement. But the denomination is facing challenges on many fronts, some of them self-inflicted. Archbishop Steve Wood, the senior leader of ACNA, has been credibly accused of sexual harassment and other offenses. Another bishop, Stewart Ruch, is currently facing a church trial for his handling of a sex offender in his diocese. Bishop Derek Jones, who has led the military chaplain corps, is now behind a rancorous attempt to leave ACNA and take more than 300 chaplains with him. All of the current controversies — those involving Archbishop Wood and Bishops Ruch and Jones — have also highlighted the inadequacy of the church's canons to deal with matters of conflict and discipline. Over the past few years, MinistryWatch has covered several scandals in the denomination, and the process has been tentative and clunky at almost every level. For example, ACNA first made formal charges against Bishop Stewart Ruch — known as a “presentment” — in December of 2022, three years ago. After many fits and starts (some of which you can read about here), the trial finally took place this week, and we still don't have a verdict. I have heard from credible sources that the cost of the trial will exceed a million dollars. More than a year ago, just before ACNA's provincial meeting in Latrobe, Penn., I wrote what I think the denomination should do to graduate from organizational adolescence into adulthood. Those recommendations included: Make a final decision on women's ordination. Eliminate non-geographical dioceses, including Church for the Sake of Others. Revise and expand the canons of ACNA. Pick a leader with a strong arm and a velvet touch. Issue a clear statement on sexual issues. Perhaps the biggest fumble, though, was ACNA's selection of a new archbishop. Not only has he proven himself to be not up to the task, he has become a part of the problem. Even if he is found “not guilty” of the presentment against him, the process itself has already been damaging to him and the church. That is why I would add one more recommendation to the list above: Steve Wood should resign as archbishop of the Anglican Church in North America. There is no way forward for him that doesn't do further damage to the church. If he is exonerated of the charges in the presentment, many in ACNA who already distrust his leadership and the inadequacy of the canons will cite that exoneration as proof of a rigged system. If he is found guilty, he is unfit to serve. I continue to believe that ACNA has great promise. The 15 years of its existence — especially when considered in the long arc of church history — is but a moment. Anglicanism offers much to the world, and to evangelicalism in particular. But it must face this moment with decisiveness and integrity. ACNA faces an existential crisis that grows more acute by the day, and before Anglicanism can save evangelicalism, it must first save itself. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.

In this episode of my Herb of the Month series, I explore Cragaegus spp. Hawthorne, or Hawthorn—a plant that has long stood at the threshold between the wild and the cultivated, the seen and unseen. Known both for its potent heart medicine and its folklore as a protector of sacred spaces, Hawthorn invites us to reflect on what it means to love bravely and to hold healthy boundaries.
Introduction: In this episode, we are joined by Molly Whiteside, a psychology student at Nottingham Trent University, to discuss her recent research report, "Am I Being Served?" which explores emotional exploitation in the hospitality industry. With lived experience in the field, Molly delves into the prevalence of economic and verbal exploitation, unsafe working conditions, and the lack of psychological safety faced by young employees. We explore the surprising and often shocking findings from her research, which combines quantitative and qualitative data to paint a vivid picture of the challenges faced by 16-25 year olds in the workplace. From unfair pay and a lack of job security to the gendered nature of harassment, this episode uncovers the root causes of these issues and offers practical advice for young people, managers, and the industry as a whole. Show Notes: Welcome and an Unexpected Question (00:09 - 05:25): We welcome Molly Whiteside to the podcast and kick things off with our signature unexpected question: "What kind of person makes a good seat companion on an aeroplane?". The Motivation Behind the Research (05:26 - 07:50): Molly explains what prompted her to research emotional exploitation in the hospitality industry, drawing from her personal experiences and observations of a lack of psychological safety in the workplace. Surprising Findings and Statistics (07:51 - 12:01): We dive into the most surprising findings from Molly's research, including the high prevalence of exploitation, with around 70% of people having experienced some form of it. We also discuss the demographic focus of the survey, which was on 16 to 25-year-olds. Qualitative vs. Quantitative Data (12:02 - 16:25): Molly breaks down the differences between what the numbers and the stories revealed. While quantitative data showed middle-of-the-road satisfaction with treatment, the qualitative data uncovered a wealth of personal experiences, particularly highlighting the different types of exploitation faced by women compared to men. Job Security, Pay, and Communication (16:26 - 19:56): We explore the statistics around job security, with 35% of participants feeling confident they wouldn't be unfairly dismissed, but 10% feeling the complete opposite. Molly also touches on the disconnect between employees feeling comfortable talking to colleagues but not managers. Recommendations for a Better Workplace (19:57 - 23:43): Molly offers actionable recommendations for young people, managers, and the hospitality industry as a whole. For young people, it's about education and knowing your rights. For employers, it's about creating psychological safety and not letting biases control employee treatment. For the industry, it's a call for more robust policies and training, especially in smaller businesses. What's Next for Molly? (23:44 - 26:12): Molly shares her exciting future plans, including her role in the "Women in Business" society, becoming a "Consent is Everything" workshop facilitator, and starting her own podcast aimed at students. Wrapping Up (26:13 - 28:00): We thank Molly for her invaluable contributions to the podcast and her work with us.

尊敬的李在明总统, Your Excellency President Lee Jae-myung, 各位同事: Colleagues, 很高兴来到韩国历史文化名城庆州,同大家共谋亚太发展大计。感谢李在明总统和韩国政府的周到安排。 It is my great pleasure to be here in Gyeongju, a city of rich history and culture, to join you in discussing the future of the Asia-Pacific. Let me begin by thanking President Lee Jae-myung and the ROK government for the thoughtful arrangement. 亚太经合组织成立30多年来,从勾画亚太自由贸易区蓝图到推动建设亚太共同体,引领亚太地区走在全球开放发展前列,助力亚太成为全球经济最具活力的地区。 Over the past 30-plus years since its founding, from drafting the blueprint of the Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific (FTAAP) to advancing the vision of an Asia-Pacific community, APEC has been spearheading the region's rise to the forefront of global open development, and has made the Asia-Pacific the most dynamic part of the global economy. 当前,世界百年变局加速演进,国际形势变乱交织,亚太地区发展面临的不稳定不确定因素增多。越是风高浪急,越要同舟共济。我们要坚守亚太经合组织促进经济增长、增进人民福祉的初衷,坚持在开放发展中分享机遇、实现共赢,推进普惠包容的经济全球化,构建亚太共同体。为此,我提5点建议。 Currently, changes unseen in a century are accelerating across the world. The international situation is fluid and turbulent. The Asia-Pacific faces growing uncertainties and destabilizing factors in its development. The rougher the seas, the more we must pull together. We should stay true to APEC's founding mission to promote economic growth and improve people's lives, and champion open development where everyone shares opportunities and emerges a winner. We should promote a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, and build an Asia-Pacific community. To this end, I wish to make five proposals. 一是共同维护多边贸易体制。践行真正的多边主义,提高以世界贸易组织为核心的多边贸易体制的权威性和有效性。坚持世界贸易组织改革的正确方向,维护最惠国待遇、非歧视等基本原则,推动国际经贸规则与时俱进,更好保障发展中国家正当权益。 First, we should work together to safeguard the multilateral trading system. We must practice true multilateralism, and enhance the authority and effectiveness of the multilateral trading system with the WTO at its core. We should stick to the right direction of WTO reform, uphold the most-favored-nation (MFN), nondiscrimination and other fundamental principles, and update international economic and trade rules to reflect the changing times, so as to better protect the legitimate rights and interests of developing countries. 二是共同营造开放型区域经济环境。持续推进贸易和投资自由化便利化,深化财金领域合作,稳步推进区域经济一体化进程。把握《区域全面经济伙伴关系协定》高质量实施和《全面与进步跨太平洋伙伴关系协定》扩员契机,推动彼此对接、融合共进,为亚太自由贸易区建设聚势汇能。 Second, we should work together to build an open economic environment in the region. We should keep promoting trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, deepen fiscal and financial cooperation, and steadily push for regional economic integration. With the RCEP being implemented to high standards and the CPTPP membership expanding, we should help the two align with each other and progress together so as to inject impetus into the development of the FTAAP. 三是共同维护产业链供应链稳定畅通。坚持“拉手”而不是“松手”、“延链”而不是“断链”,积极寻找更多利益契合点,支持供应链开放发展。以《亚太经合组织互联互通蓝图》实施10周年为契机,不断做实做细硬联通、软联通、心联通,进一步夯实亚太地区开放发展基础。 Third, we should work together to keep industrial and supply chains stable and smooth. We must join hands rather than part ways, and strengthen our links rather than sever them. We should vigorously expand our common interests, and support the open development of supply chains. The tenth anniversary of the APEC Connectivity Blueprint gives us a good opportunity to strive for concrete and tangible results in physical, institutional and people-to-people connectivity so as to further consolidate the foundations for open development in our region. 四是共同推进贸易数字化绿色化。充分发挥数字技术对跨境贸易的促进作用,推进无纸贸易、智慧海关等务实合作。破除各种绿色壁垒,拓展绿色产业、清洁能源和绿色矿产合作。中方在亚太经合组织首倡设立的亚太示范电子口岸网络、绿色供应链网络,已经成为区域贸易数字化绿色化合作的重要平台。 Fourth, we should work together to advance the digital and green transformation of trade. We should make digital technologies a strong catalyst for cross-border trade, and promote practical cooperation in paperless trade, smart customs and other areas. We must remove various green barriers, and expand cooperation in green industries, clean energy and green minerals. The Asia-Pacific Model E-port Network and the Cooperation Network on Green Supply Chain initiated by China under APEC have become important platforms for regional cooperation on the digital and green upgrades for trade. 五是共同促进普惠包容发展。坚持以人民为中心的发展理念,着力解决发展不平衡问题,推动经济全球化更加包容、更可持续,更好惠及地区全体人民。中方同各方合作推进高质量共建“一带一路”,支持更多发展中国家实现现代化,为全球发展开辟新空间。中国已给予同我国建交的最不发达国家100%税目产品零关税待遇,愿通过商签共同发展经济伙伴关系协定落实对非洲建交国实施100%税目产品零关税措施,致力于同各国共同发展、共享繁荣。 Fifth, we should work together to promote universally beneficial and inclusive development. We should adhere to the people-centered development philosophy, focus on imbalances in development, and foster an economic globalization that is more inclusive, sustainable, and beneficial to all peoples in the region. China is working with various parties to promote the high-quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative, and supports the modernization drive of more developing countries, which will help open up new space for global development. We have given zero-tariff treatment on 100 percent tariff lines from the least developed countries having diplomatic relations with China, and stand ready to extend the same treatment to all African countries having diplomatic relations with China through the signing of agreements on economic partnership for shared development. We will continue to strive for common development and shared prosperity with all nations. 各位同事! Colleagues, 中国始终坚持对外开放的基本国策,以实际行动推动建设开放型世界经济。过去5年,中国货物和服务贸易规模位居全球第一和第二,累计吸引外资逾7000亿美元,对外投资年均增速超过5%。中国的外资准入负面清单持续缩减,单方面免签持续扩容,自主开放和单边开放有序扩大,22个自贸试验区主动对接国际高标准经贸规则。中国对外开放的大门不会关闭,只会越开越大。 China always pursues the basic state policy of opening up, and has taken real steps to promote an open world economy. Over the past five years, China has ranked as the world's largest trader in goods and the second largest in services. It has attracted more than 700 billion US dollars in foreign investment in total, and its outbound investment has been increasing by over five percent on annual average. We have been shortening the negative list for foreign investment, and applying the unilateral visa-free policy to more countries. We are steadily expanding voluntary and unilateral opening up, and have actively aligned with high-standard international economic and trade rules through our 22 pilot free trade zones. China's door to the world will not close; it will only open wider and wider. 不久前,中共二十届四中全会通过了关于制定“十五五”规划的建议。中方将以此为契机,进一步全面深化改革,坚定不移扩大高水平对外开放,不断以中国式现代化新成就为亚太和世界提供新机遇。 A few days ago, the Recommendations for Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan were adopted at the fourth plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. We will take this opportunity to further deepen reform comprehensively and expand high-standard opening up, and create new opportunities for the Asia-Pacific and the world through the latest achievements of Chinese modernization. 谢谢大家! Thank you.

We unpack the confusion around gluten and gut health, explaining what the science really says about inflammation, how wholegrains and sourdough compare to refined options, and when cutting out wheat is genuinely helpful versus when it's just another wellness myth. We also explore the surprising benefits of dark chocolate, from its antioxidant-rich polyphenols to its links with mood, cognition and even gut health. Plus, we share a simple digital wellbeing tweak that's helping listeners spend less time scrolling, and answer your questions on vitamin D, plant diversity and healthy eating on busy days.

In this solo episode of the Female Athlete Nutrition Podcast, host Lindsey Elizabeth Cortes addresses recent concerns about lead in protein powders. She draws from an October 2025 Consumer Reports article which revealed that out of 23 tested protein products, over two-thirds contained lead levels higher than recommended for daily intake. Lindsey explains the significance of this finding, the implications for various demographics including children and pregnant women, and offers practical advice on choosing safer protein powder alternatives while simultaneously admitting that the consumer reports article created unnecessary fear mongering as the limits which Consumer Reports set for lead was much lower than any other current standards. She emphasizes the importance of whole foods over supplements and encourages informed consumer choices. Additionally, Lindsey provides updates on her website services and partnerships aimed at supporting female athletes.

When Jean Hannah Edelstein went to college, she realized she had great breasts. Like, the kind that could win a wet T-shirt contest. But they also made her a target for harassment. Later, when she started nursing, her feelings toward her breasts got even more complicated. Then, when her son was four, she learned she would have to say goodbye to them. Today, Jean walks us through the life cycle of her breasts — from when she first noticed them to when she lost them. … Recommendations from the archive #108 Boobs #109 More Boobs #203 When Mommy Boobs Go Viral … More on Jean Hannah Edelstein • Jean's website • Jean's book: Breasts: A Relatively Brief Relationship (using this link supports the show!) … • Join LST+ for community and access to You Know What, another show in the Longest Shortest universe! • Follow us on Instagram • Sign up for our newsletter, where we recommend other parenting + reproductive health media • Buy books by LST guests (your purchase supports the show!) • Website: longestshortesttime.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Rebecca Salganik, a PhD student at the University of Rochester with a background in vocal performance and composition, discusses her research on fairness in music recommendation systems. She explores three key types of fairness—group, individual, and counterfactual—and examines how algorithms create challenges like popularity bias (favoring mainstream content) and multi-interest bias (underserving users with diverse tastes). Rebecca introduces LARP, her multi-stage multimodal framework for playlist continuation that uses contrastive learning to align text and audio representations, learn song relationships, and create playlist-level embeddings to address the cold start problem. A significant contribution of Rebecca's work is the Music Semantics dataset, created by scraping Reddit discussions to capture how people naturally describe music using atmospheric qualities, contextual comparisons, and situational associations rather than just technical features. This dataset, available on Hugging Face, enables more nuanced recommendation systems that better understand user preferences and support niche tastes. Her research utilizes industry datasets including Last.fm and Spotify's Million Playlist Dataset, and points toward exciting future applications in music generation and multimodal systems that combine audio, text, and video.
