In deze nieuwe aflevering van BNR Beter, gepresenteerd door Nina van den Dungen, gaat het over een neusspray die griepvirussen al in de neus moet blokkeren. De technologie wordt ontwikkeld door het Leidse biotechbedrijf Leyden Labs, dat werkt aan breed beschermende antilichamen die influenza kunnen tegenhouden nog vóór het lichaam geïnfecteerd raakt. Te gast zijn Koenraad Wiedhaup, CEO en medeoprichter van Leyden Labs, en Ingrid de Visser-Kamerling, Research Director bij het Centre for Human Drug Research (CHDR) en COO van INFECTA. Samen bespreken zij hoe deze innovatie werkt, waarom de aanpak fundamenteel verschilt van een griepvaccin en waarom vooral kwetsbare groepen – ouderen, mensen met een zwak immuunsysteem – er veel baat bij kunnen hebben. De spray richt zich op nu vooral op influenza A en B, de virussen die jaarlijks verantwoordelijk zijn voor miljoenen ziekenhuisopnames en circa een miljoen doden wereldwijd. Volgens Wiedhaup kan één dagelijkse neusspray een brede beschermingslaag vormen, ook tegen nieuwe griepvarianten en zelfs tegen potentieel pandemische bedreigingen zoals vogelgriep. Ingrid de Visser legt uit hoe INFECTA, via zogeheten Controlled Human Infection Models, geneesmiddelen al in een vroege fase test op vrijwilligers. Door mensen onder streng gecontroleerde omstandigheden bloot te stellen aan een infectie, kan sneller worden vastgesteld of een middel echt werkt. Dat verkort ontwikkeltijden en voorkomt dat veelbelovende middelen pas in een laat stadium stranden – een doorbraak voor infectieziektenonderzoek.

For nearly a century, GDP has been the world's go-to measure of economic success—but what if it's been telling us the wrong story? It treats cigarette sales and cancer treatments as equally “good” for the economy, while caring for your kids, volunteering, or creating art don't count at all. This week, economist Diane Coyle joins Nick and Goldy to discuss her new book, The Measure of Progress, and explain why GDP increasingly fails to capture the reality of modern economies—and how we can measure real progress instead. Diane Coyle is the Bennett Professor of Public Policy at the University of Cambridge. She is also the Research Director at the Bennett School of Public Policy, a member of the UK Government's Industrial Strategy Council, and author of the new book, The Measure of Progress: Counting What Really Matters.

Utility-scale clean energy projects in development are still facing connection queues and regulatory barriers. RE+ may be done for 2025, but the debate is still going. Host Sylvia Leyva Martinez, Research Director at Wood Mackenzie, sits down with three leaders who are driving progress from different corners of the energy transition, from utility-scale project development to digital grid optimisation and solar system reliability. Sylvia Leyva Martinez and her guests discuss how federal and state regulations shape project timelines and financing, the latest innovations in the grid and the future of interconnection studies, the supply chain outlook for developers and technology providers, and how policy and software are converging to accelerate the energy transition. In this episode you'll hear from: Angela Amos from AES Clean Energy - As Director of Commercial Strategy & Innovation, Angela brings a unique vantage point that bridges policy, finance, and market execution. Drawing on her experience at AES, Uplight, and FERC, Angela shares how developers are navigating an evolving regulatory landscape, adapting to federal and state policy shifts, and rethinking how technology integration shapes long-term strategy. She also discusses how AES is approaching supply chain partnerships and what “innovation” really looks like at a global energy developer. Lindsey Williams from Shoals Technologies Group - Lindsey is VP of Marketing & Communications at Shoals, and she joins Sylvia to unpack the latest in solar and storage performance. Building on Shoals' recent focus on EBOS (Electrical Balance of System), Lindsey reflects on how component design, reliability, and digital monitoring are redefining project outcomes. She also shares what she heard from the floor at RE+, including the big industry talking points shaping developer confidence and long-term investment certainty in clean energy infrastructure. Inalvis Alvarez Fernandez from Simple Thread - Inalvis is a Senior Energy Technology Engineer at Simple Thread, and she explains how digital tools like Minerva are helping reduce project backlogs, streamline utility processes, and unlock grid capacity faster. Inalvis also discusses the challenges clean energy companies face scaling renewables and how regulatory clarity can enable more efficient technology deployment.

The Chancellor, Rachel Reeves has been widely trailing this month's budget and the difficult decisions she'll have to make in just under two weeks time. This is being taken as code for tax rises and a possible break in Labour's manifesto pledge with a rise in income tax. She's said one of the key reasons for this is that the government's official forecaster, the Office for Budget Responsibility or OBR, is likely to lower its UK productivity growth forecast for the coming years. So why is UK productivity a problem and what can be done to improve it?

A must-listen for anyone navigating UK property.

The Nuclear Threshold is a three-part Burn Bag mini-series exploring how deterrence, defense, and diplomacy shape nuclear risk in the 21st century. Across three conversations with leading experts, we examine why technological optimism often outpaces reality, how fragile human systems sustain deterrence, and whether diplomacy can still prevent catastrophe in an increasingly unstable world.In this first episode, astrophysicist Dr. Laura Grego, Research Director at the Union of Concerned Scientists, joins A'ndre Gonawela to break down the science — and the myths — behind missile defense. Grego explains why the United States' decades-long effort to build a reliable shield against nuclear attack has repeatedly failed, and how those failures risk deepening global instability. From the early “Star Wars” program to today's multi-billion-dollar “Golden Dome” initiative, she unpacks the physics that make missile interception nearly impossible, the political incentives that keep these programs alive, and the illusion of safety that drives them. The conversation explores how misplaced faith in technology can push the world closer to, not further from, the nuclear threshold.

Cameron Berg, Research Director at AE Studio, shares his team's groundbreaking research exploring whether frontier AI systems report subjective experiences. They discovered that prompts inducing self-referential processing consistently lead models to claim consciousness, and a mechanistic study on Llama 3.3 70B revealed that suppressing deception features makes the model *more* likely to report it. This suggests that promoting truth-telling in AIs could reveal a deeper, more complex internal state, a finding Scott Alexander calls "the only exception" to typical AI consciousness discussions. The episode delves into the profound implications for two-way human-AI alignment and the critical need for a precautionary approach to AI consciousness.

We are surrounded by intelligent devices and these increasingly use various AI interfaces and processing capabilities to support the needs of users. This episode of Utilizing Tech focuses on edge AI and AI assistants and agents with Olivier Blanchard of The Futurum Group along with Frederic Van Haren and Stephen Foskett. We have all used so-called intelligent assistants, starting with Apple Siri and Amazon Alexa and continuing with Google, Microsoft, and many others. These voice interfaces are increasingly functioning as agents, connecting with various data sources and tools to perform tasks on the behalf of the user. AI assistants have arrived at the same overall paradigm as AI agents, and there is an inevitable crossover between these technologies, as the best of breed components are adopted. The needs of AI assistants has also lead to an increase in availability of specialized processing on PCs and even personal devices, and this helps offload the tremendous need for power and space of AI applications.Guest: Olivier Blanchard, Research Director at The Futurum GroupHosts: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stephen Foskett⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, President of the Tech Field Day Business Unit and Organizer of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tech Field Day Event Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Frederic Van Haren⁠⁠⁠, Founder and CTO of HighFens, Inc. ⁠⁠⁠Guy Currier⁠⁠⁠, Chief Analyst at Visible Impact, The Futurum Group.For more episodes of Utilizing Tech, head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠the dedicated website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and follow the show ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on X/Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Mastodon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Microsoft Corp. reported a steeper climb in spending than Wall Street expected, fueling anxieties about the high costs of providing AI infrastructure. First-quarter capital expenditures including leases, an indication of data center spending, came in at $34.9 billion, up from $24 billion in the preceding quarter, the company said Wednesday. Microsoft continues “to increase our investments in AI across both capital and talent to meet the massive opportunity ahead,” Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella said in a statement. Total revenue increased 18% to $77.7 billion in the fiscal first quarter, while profit was $3.72 a share. Analysts on average estimated sales of $75.6 billion and per-share earnings of $3.68. The Azure cloud-computing unit posted a 39% revenue gain in the quarter when adjusting for currency fluctuations, beating the Wall Street estimate of 37%. Investor expectations for Microsoft were high heading into earnings, with all but one analyst tracked by Bloomberg rating the stock a buy. Meta Platforms said it expects total expenses to significantly increase in 2026, and will continue to invest at historic levels in artificial intelligence. The company also reported third-quarter net income of $2.71 billion, which included a one-time, non-cash income tax charge of $15.9 billion due to the implementation of the tax bill signed into law in July, Meta said in the statement. Without the accounting charge, Meta said net income would have increased 19% to $18.6 billion.Looking beyond the third-quarter, the company said it expects a “significant reduction” in US federal cash tax payments for 2025 and years to come due to the new law. Meta reported third-quarter sales of $51.2 billion, which beat analysts’ average estimate of $49.6 billion.For analysis of the tech earnings, Bloomberg Businessweek Daily spoke with Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Technology Analyst Anurag Rana and Ivan Feinseth, Research Director and Chief Investment Officer with Tigress Financial Partners.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ryan Kmetz is Research Director at IQSpatial. We are privileged to have his time in this episode. He talked with us about economic conditions faced by geospatial workers in the US. We reflected on the emergence of a protest movement, the No Kings march a couple of weekends ago. We observed how this has emerged in the context of very high cost of living, lack of wage growth, high costs of housing and education. Ryan is a useful guest here because he has in his family history a great great great grandfather who was involved in similar protest movement against a Russian czar and was sent to Siberia as punishment. In a hero's journey like so many who have come to America over the centuries, this man escaped prison to New York City where he sold newspapers on a street corner. A few generations later we have Ryan to tell this story and remind us that things happen in cycles. By using a translation service you can read more about this family member here. Ryan also told us about another family member who adds to the picture of unrest like we see now occurring in cycles, and how cynical political figures can exploit underprivileged groups in society to distract the population from the real causes of their issues. I recommend listening to find out more about that family figure. Ryan then turned the mic toward me for a summary of what I have observed in my career from the perspective of exploitation of the poor and vulnerable. It was a chance to step through what I covered earlier in the year in 8 episodes starting here. We then used this material about cycles of exploitation of the vulnerable in society across the centuries, examples of how to deal with that from his family history and evidence of this pattern continuing in my career across the world to make the case for a new way of worker participation in the economy. That new way is expanding democratic participation via owning shares. When you own shares you can vote on how a company is run. Through community organising (and we can use a prior guest Frank Romo for inspiration here) Ryan and I perceive there is an opportunity to assert ourselves in the industry to direct our work to favour the poor and marginalised.I look forward to your own reflections on this matter and working with you to build up a force for justice here.

This special wrap-up episode of Interchange Recharged takes listeners on a fast tour of the entire carbon capture value chain, from industrial emitters and LNG developers to UK transport and storage pioneers. Host Sylvia Leyva Martinez, Research Director at Wood Mackenzie, brings together three leaders shaping how CCUS moves from theory to reality.First, James Lopez, Subsurface CO₂ Storage Advisor at CEMEX, explains why cement's process emissions make it one of the hardest sectors to decarbonise and why storage certainty is now the key enabler for investment. He shares how CEMEX is identifying and evaluating CO₂ storage hubs across global sites, and why capture without a permitted storage solution is a business risk few emitters can take. “CCUS doesn't work if you only have the C,” he says, “you need the full chain.”Next, Glenn Wilson, Chief Financial Officer at Coastal Bend LNG, discusses how LNG economics and carbon capture can work hand in hand. Designed from day one as a low-carbon project, Coastal Bend LNG is integrating capture across both pre-treatment and post-combustion stages, aiming for near-zero emissions. Glenn explains how 45Q tax credits and the sale of verified environmental attributes create a dual-revenue model, and why tokenising the carbon intensity of each LNG cargo could redefine transparency in global energy trade. “We're not just reducing emissions,” he says, “we're creating a new market for verified carbon value.”Finally, Nick Terrell, Executive Director at Carbon Catalyst, joins from the UK to reveal how depleted gas fields are being repurposed into next-generation carbon storage sites. Following the country's first offshore CO₂ injection test, he shares how reusing North Sea infrastructure is cutting costs, driving bankability, and opening the door to cross-border storage for European emitters. As policy alignment grows between the UK and EU, Terrell argues that liberalisation and private capital will be the next accelerators. “Once we have more FIDs,” he says, “finance, technology, and data will do the rest.”From the cement kiln to the seabed, this episode captures the energy and optimism emerging across the CCUS ecosystem - a clear sign that carbon capture is moving from cautious planning to confident execution.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Get 83% off PIA VPN - https://www.piavpn.com/lehtofilesIn 2012, physicist Nassim Haramein made a bold prediction about the proton's charge radius that contradicted mainstream physics. By 2018, his prediction became the official scientific standard—proving decades of established science wrong.In this conversation, Nassim explains how he discovered that protons are actually miniature black holes, and that mass itself emerges from quantum vacuum fluctuations rather than being an inherent property of matter. This isn't fringe science—his peer-reviewed papers accurately predicted measurements that mainstream physics got wrong.We discuss:- How he predicted the proton radius with 10-digit accuracy- Why protons are black holes at the quantum scale- How the strong force is actually gravity at a different scale- Why we don't need dark matter—we just misunderstood the coffee- The connection between zero point energy and UFO/UAP propulsion- What consciousness has to do with quantum physics- Why Einstein tried to create particles from mini wormholesNassim Haramein is the Research Director of the International Space Federation and has spent over 30 years working to unify the laws of physics. His work suggests our entire understanding of mass, energy, and reality may need to be rewritten.Chris Lehto is a former F-16 pilot with 18 years of experience in the Air Force.

PREVIEW HEADLINE: Obamacare's Affordability Crisis: What Went Wrong and How to Fix It GUEST: Michael Toth, Research Director of the Civitas Institute 50-WORD SUMMARY: Obamacare has become "massively unaffordable" for taxpayers because federal subsidies covering premiums rose from less than 70% to over 80%. The original mistakes could be corrected by deregulating the health insurance market, allowing insurers to charge lower premiums for younger, healthier people, thereby increasing the risk pool and bending the cost curve.

E423- INNER VOICE : A HEARTFELT CHAT WITH DR. FOOJAN AND DR. DONALD MEICHENBAUM ON

Global spending on cybersecurity products and services will see a strong 14.4% CAGR from 2024 through 2029 and will hit $302.5 billion in 2029, driven by continued concerns around cyberattacks across all verticals and geographies. But where is the spending occuring and how do you prepare? Merritt Maxim, VP & Research Director at Forrester, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the Global Cybersecurity Market Forecast, 2024 To 2029 report. Merritt will discuss the findings, including: In 2029, 69% of cybersecurity spending will be on software across seven prime functional disciplines of cybersecurity (applications, cloud, data, endpoint, network, identity, and security operations); the remaining spending will be allocated to security services, excluding security outsourcing, implementation, and deployment services; and AI software spending will grow at a CAGR of 21.2%, from $74.3 billion in 2024 to $194.3 billion by 2029. See Merritt's blog of the results at https://www.forrester.com/blogs/global-cybersecurity-spending-to-exceed-300b-by-2029/.
