Dr. Jennifer Mootz is Assistant Professor of Clinical Medical Psychology at Columbia University and Research Scientist with the Research Foundation for Mental Hygiene at the New York State Psychiatric Institute. Dr. Palmira Fortunado dos Santos is the Mental Health, Trauma and Violence Program Coordinator with the National Institute of Health in Mozambique. We discussed how Drs. Mootz and Furtunado de los Santos met via the UN in New York (pride project 2016) which is how they began their collaboration. They provide some guidance on intimate partner violence (IPV), and the limitations of interventions for IPV that focus on one partner, which is generally the man.The discussion also involved masculinities as well as marital relationship and family dynamics in several regions in Mozambique. While Interpersonal Therapy-Couples (IPT-C) is an established treatment for couples experiencing relationship problems, the research team learned a great deal about how to implement IPT-C in the context of families and social structures of Mozambique. Finally, Drs. Fortunado dos Santos and Mootz shared how what they learned impacted their understanding of engaging men in their work in Mozambique.   D75

Send us a textSenior Producer & Host Martha Carlson interviews Josh Newby, the founder of Theresa's Research Foundation. Josh has been a leader in the world of metastatic breast cancer advocacy for over a decade, focusing energy on bringing MBC research scientists and patient advocates together in an effort to improve our lives. To paraphrase Josh, researchers need patients and patients need researchers—a synergy he recognized early and brought to the fore of advocacy. This year, Josh and Theresa's Research Foundation is doubling down on a cure for MBC. In this episode, he talks about the work the Foundation is doing and what “cure” means to him. He also talks about the effects of current federal policy on research and what it may mean for the young MBC investigators he champions. To check out the episode notes, please visit ourmbclife.org. 

Vandag word Wêreld-ietermagôdag gevier. Oor die afgelope ses jaar het handel in die diertjies aansienlik toegeneem, met 499 ietermagôs wat gestroop is, wat ernstige kommer oor die spesie se oorlewing laat ontstaan. Ietermagôs in Namibië is ook in krisis as gevolg van 'n langdurige droogte wat hul voedselvoorraad ernstig beïnvloed het. Hul primêre dieet van miere en termiete bly grootliks ontoeganklik, want die insekte bly diep ondergronds ondanks onlangse reën. Plaaslike gemeenskappe berig dat hulle verskeie ietermagô-karkasse ontdek het, wat die dringendheid van die situasie onderstreep. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Kelsey Prediger, die stigter van die Pangolin Conservation and Research Foundation.

The sloth bear is the most widespread of the four bear species found in India. More popularly known as “Baloo” from the Jungle Book, sloth bears are found across a large variety of habitats below an altitude of 1,500m, such as tropical forests, scrubland and grasslands. Sloth bears are regionally extinct in Bangladesh and [are listed as “Vulnerable” by the IUCN Red List due to extensive habitat loss and degradation. Additionally, the rising demand for bear bile in Eastern Asia makes the sloth bear susceptible to the illegal wildlife trade. Historically, sloth bears were used for the disturbing “Dancing Bears” practice by the Kalahadhar Tribe. Fortunately, persistent efforts from NGOs, such as Wildlife SOS has ended this horrific practice and rescued all 600 affected bears.Another major threat to the sloth bear is human-wildlife conflict. Interactions between these bears and humans peak during the flowering of the mahua trees in the summer. The mahua fruit is crucial for the livelihoods of indigenous and tribal communities, as they are used not only as fodder and fuel but also to brew local alcohol. However, sloth bears often forage these fruits during the summer, which often leads to fatal human-bear conflicts in central India. In this episode, I interview Dr. Nishith Dharaiya, the co-founder of the Wildlife Conservation Biology Research Foundation.  He is also the co-chair of the IUCN Sloth Bear Expert Team. In this episode,  Nishith talks candidly about his conservation and research work on sloth bears in Gujarat over the last few decades. We also revist his PhD on Gir's lions.

Show Summary:    On this Reality Roundtable, Nate is joined by small-scale farmer Jason Bradford, permaculturist and documentarian Andrew Millison, regenerative agriculture activist Vandana Shiva, and regenerative farmer and educator Daniel Zetah to discuss the feasibility of a food system fully or mostly independent of fossil fuel inputs. While a non-industrialized agriculture system is certainly possible (it was the norm for the majority of human history), what that will look like and how we even begin such a transition is daunting with a population of 8 billion humans to feed. How do we teach people the skills they'll need as fossil inputs become less affordable, reliable, and accessible? Can we create a cultural shift towards a slower lifestyle that is more connected to the land which provides us food? What do the people of a society look like where we are once again centered around agriculture and in tune with the flows of nature? How would our relationship with jobs and the land have to change?   About Jason Bradford:   Jason Bradford has been affiliated with Post Carbon Institute since 2004, first as a Fellow and then as Board President. He worked for the Center for Conservation and Sustainable Development at the Missouri Botanical Garden, was a Visiting Scholar at U.C. Davis, and during that period co-founded the Andes Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research Group (ABERG). He decided to shift from academia to learn more about and practice sustainable agriculture, and in the process, completed six months of training with Ecology Action (aka GrowBiointensive) in Willits, California, and then founded Brookside School Farm.   About Andrew Millison:   Andrew Millison is an innovative educator, storyteller and designer. He founded the Permaculture Design education program at Oregon State University (OSU) in 2009. At OSU Andrew serves as an Education Director and Senior Instructor who offers over 25 years of experience, and a playful approach to regenerative design. Andrew is also a documentary videographer who travels the world documenting epic permaculture projects in places such as India, Egypt, Mexico, Cuba, and throughout the US. You can view his videos and series on his YouTube channel. About Vandana Shiva   Vandana Shiva is a well known activist, author of many books, and is a global champion on regenerative local agriculture, biodiversity and nutritious food. She has a PhD in physics and 40 years ago founded the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology, an independent research institute that works on the most significant ecological problems of our times.  About Daniel Zetah:   Daniel grew up on a farm in Minnesota where he learned to fix all manner of things driven from an insatiable curiosity about how things worked. He studied economics and business at university. After waking to our planetary predicament, he became a full time environmental activist, then moved to an off grid community in the mountains where he studied permaculture and built straw bale houses. He moved back to America to help steer culture in a more sane direction. He and his wife Stephanie moved back to the family farm in Minnesota where they are growing 80% of their calories, rebuilding the local ecology, and educating and empowering people to wrest back control of their sovereignty as human beings.    For Show Notes and More visit: https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/rr06-bradford-millison-shiva-zetah To watch this video episode on Youtube → https://youtu.be/lb2tJXopTJA  

My guest today is Dr. Elizabeth Sulzby whose research focus is on early language and literacy development in Pre-Kindergarten. She talks about research studies she did with preschoolers in NYC years ago where teachers do repeated readings of storybooks—even those with complex language and story structure—and study children's rereadings and retellings. These studies formed the basis for her emergent reading classification scheme. We also talk a bit about emergent writing development in prekindergarten and its parallels to reading development. Later, I'm joined by my colleagues Gina Dignon and bilingual educator Clarisa Leal for a conversation about practical takeaways for young children and multilingual learners.****Read a full transcript of this episode and learn more about Jennifer Serravallo.AccessEmergent Literacy: Writing and ReadingMore on Dr. Sulzby's KLP Literature ProgramThe Reading Strategies Book 2.0****More about this episode's guest:Elizabeth Sulzby is best known for her pioneering work in emergent literacy. Prior to coming to the University Michigan in 1986, Sulzby was associate professor with tenure at Northwestern University. During 1996-97, she was a visiting professor at Leiden University, the Netherlands, where she collaborates with A.G. Bus and Marinus H. Van IJzendoorn in studies of attachment and emergent literacy. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Virginia and her M.Ed. from the College of William and Mary. She did post-B.A. study in philosophy at Harvard University after receiving her B.A. in philosophy and English from Birmingham-Southern College. Sulzby is the author, with W. H. Teale, of Emergent literacy: Writing and Reading, and has published her research on children's emergent reading and writing development in numerous journals.  Her studies of emergent bookreading and emergent writing have been conducted with diverse groups of children aged 2-7, including African American, Spanish-English bilingual immigrant, Appalachian, and European American children.Research in emergent literacy has led Sulzby in a number of related directions. She has studied the transition from emergent to conventional literacy, designing techniques for assessing literacy from toddlers to early elementary grades in a manner consistent with emergent literacy insights. Her studies, with Bus, van IJzendoorn, Teale, and Kaderavek have bridged the parent-child intervention studies and children's independent emergent readings. Her research has been funded by the Spencer Foundation, NIE/OERI, the Research Foundation of NCTE, and by various computer and software companies, including IBM, Apple Computer, and Jostens. Sulzby is a Fellow in the APA and NCRLL and has served on many editorial and research review boards.

 On this special episode of The One Way Ticket Show, Host Steven Shalowitz sat down with Dr. Jonathan Schanzer to provide perspective on the barbaric invasion of Israel by Hamas terrorists on Saturday 7 October 2023.   The interview is from Steven's conversation with Dr. Schanzer on the Jewish National Fund USA podcast, IsraelCast.   Dr. Jonathan Schanzer is senior vice president for research at FDD, where he oversees the work of the organization's experts and scholars. He is also on the leadership team of FDD's Center on Economic and Financial Power, a project on the use of financial and economic power as a tool of statecraft. Jonathan previously worked as a terrorism finance analyst at the U.S. Department of the Treasury, where he played an integral role in the designation of numerous terrorist financiers. He has held previous think tank research positions at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and the Middle East Forum.   Jonathan has written hundreds of articles on the Middle East, along with more than a dozen monographs and chapters for edited volumes. His new book, Gaza Conflict 2021: Hamas, Israel and Eleven Days of War (FDD Press 2021), challenges and corrects some of the wildly inaccurate news reported during the conflict. It is the first book published on the war. His three other books have made unique contributions to the field. State of Failure: Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and the Unmaking of the Palestinian State (Palgrave Macmillan 2013) argues the main roadblock to Palestinian statehood is the Palestinian Authority's political dysfunction and mismanagement. Hamas vs. Fatah: The Struggle for Palestine (Palgrave Macmillan 2008) is still the only book on the market that analyzes the ongoing Palestinian civil war. Al-Qaeda's Armies: Middle East Affiliate Groups and the Next Generation of Terror (Washington Institute for Near East Policy 2004) was the first to explore the al-Qaeda franchises of the Middle East.  Jonathan testifies often before Congress and publishes widely in the American and international media. He has appeared on American television channels such as Fox News and CNN, and Arabic language television channels such as Al-Arabiya and Al-Jazeera.   A sought-after public speaker, Jonathan has traveled widely throughout the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, UAE, Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Morocco, Kuwait, Qatar, Turkey, Jordan, Israel, and the Palestinian territories.   Jonathan has studied Middle East history in four countries. He earned his PhD from King's College London, where he wrote his dissertation on the U.S. Congress and its efforts to combat terrorism in the 20th century. He speaks Arabic and Hebrew.

ONCE UPON A GENE - EPISODE 188 How Being a Mom to Twins with a Rare and Undiagnosed Condition Has Shaped Rare Mom, Scientist and Co-Founder of the MAST Genes Research Foundation with Dr. Kim Aldinger Dr. Kim Aldinger is a Seattle Children's scientist that studies how genes influence brain development and how those processes malfunction to cause neurodevelopmental disorders. She's also a mom to rare twins, Chloe and Grayson. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Tell us about your twins, Chloe and Grayson. They are seven years old, fraternal twins, but wildly different. I had a surprise twin pregnancy and they were born early. Both were in the NICU, but Grayson had some lingering concerns like a low grade temperature and fussiness. He began having seizures, going into status epilepticus, and he was on a lot of medication and machines for breathing support. Chloe didn't have signs of symptoms like Grayson, but as a twin, she had a brain MRI and they found evidence of an intraventricular hemorrhage.  What diagnosis did you receive from whole exome sequencing? We had whole exome sequencing because we thought there was a biochemical event that had initiated the seizures Grayson was experiencing. The testing came back negative, but part of what I do professionally is analyze exome sequencing, so I requested the data from the report and I didn't see anything that explained what was causing his seizures. When he was three years old, Grayson's sequencing results were re-evalutated. MAST4, associated with a brain disorder, was reported to be of uncertain significance based on literature that linked MAST4 to epilepsy.  You're changing the focus of your scientific studies. Can you talk about that? My background is in brain development and genetics and I've mostly spent my time in a human genetics lab. Part of what I do is look at genes and figure out how they are or are not working and how that impacts brain development, specifically the cerebellum, which is responsible for motor coordination and sensory integration. The MAST4 gene isn't related to the cerebellum region, so through research to learn more, a project was born. Thanks to the American Epilepsy Society, we received a small grant to work more on the MAST4 research work.  CONNECT WITH KIM Twitter https://twitter.com/kaaldinger?lang=en Email kimberly.aldinger@seattlechildrens.org LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED CTNNB1 Connect and Cure Conference https://www.curectnnb1.org/ COMBINEDBrain https://combinedbrain.org/ American Epilepsy Society https://aesnet.org/ MAST Genes Research Foundation https://mastgenes.org/ TUNE INTO THE ONCE UPON A GENE PODCAST Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5Htr9lt5vXGG3ac6enxLQ7 Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/once-upon-a-gene/id1485249347 Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/once-upon-a-gene Overcast https://overcast.fm/itunes1485249347/once-upon-a-gene CONNECT WITH EFFIE PARKS Website https://effieparks.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/OnceUponAGene Instagram https://www.instagram.com/onceuponagene.podcast/?hl=en Built Ford Tough Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1877643259173346/ Interested in advertising on Once Upon a Gene?

Have you heard of Breast Implant Illness? If you have implants, could they be making you sick? Tune in to hear us interview Dr. Robert Whitfield, a board certified plastic surgeon and expert in breast implant illness who now performs more explants than implants!    Breast Implant Illness (BII), according to Dr. Whitfield, is driven by an inflammatory response to the breast implant itself, or to bacteria (biofilms) that may grow on the breast implant surface or within the scar capsule. This inflammation can create a wide range of symptoms that patients experience after getting breast implants. In this episode, we dig into symptoms to look out for including chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, joint pain and more. We discuss who is most susceptible to breast implant illness, how to determine if BII is driving your symptoms, when to consider explant and how you can support your body for best surgical outcomes.    Dr. Whitfield's Bio:  Dr. Whitfield is an experienced, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. He completed six years of surgical training at Indiana University Medical Center. He remained at the Indiana University Medical Center to complete his Plastic Surgery Residency and gained additional training in Microsurgery and Aesthetic Surgery. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and the American Medical Association.   Dr. Whitfield focuses on providing clients with nutritional guidance, nutraceutical advice, personal genetic predisposition screening, non-invasive radio frequency, minimally invasive radio frequency  and surgical options for treatments all over the body.  He has completed over 5000 breast procedures since 2004 including over 1100 breast implant removals with and without holistic transformations with fat transfer.  He has the largest series of explant specimens with PCR testing.  While serving as the President Elect of the Research Foundation he gave testimony at the FDA hearings in 2019 regarding Breast Implant Illness.    Also in this episode:  Wellness in Wimberley Women's Wellness Webinar 4/12 FREE Sign Up Here Our Protocol for Breast Implant IllnessCellular Antiox Detox Packs Rebuild Spectrum Probiotic BroccoDetox Pre and Post Surgery Protocol Beat the Bloat Cleanse About Dr. Robert Whitfield Symptoms of Breast Implant Illness The Autoimmune Breast Implant Connection Does the Type of Implant Matter?
