Robert Mayer, MD, is the Faculty Vice President for Academic Affairs at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Stephen B. Kay Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, where he serves as the Faculty Associate Dean for Admissions. He directed the Dana Farber's Medical Oncology Fellowship Program for over thirty years, overseeing the training of several hundred oncologists and established the Center for Gastrointestinal Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Dr. Mayer is a past president of American Society of Clinical Oncology and has been a recipient of numerous awards including ASCO's Distinguished Achievement Award and the prestigious Giants of Cancer Care award. “Medicine is complicated now, [but] it's still the basic principle of people caring for people, trying to do good and making their lives better. I always tell people, ‘Put your feet in the water and see what there might be.' Try different things; don't think you know the answer before you really have a chance to see what all the opportunities are. When people give you a chance, take an interest in you, advise you, or guide you, say yes, listen, and go for it. Those are opportunities that are very special.” Having been provided rare opportunities by his mentors, Dr. Robert Mayer now does the same for his mentees. Tune into this episode of The Medicine Mentors to learn more. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. Availability is the key value of implementing a patient-first attitude because we have less time to get to know the patient and yet still have a responsibility to build the same level of comfort for their care. 2. Instead of looking for success in accolades and accomplishments, true success for physicians is knowing your patients and treating them over time. Caring for someone and keeping them priority means being a successful physician. 3. If somebody takes a chance on us, the least we can do is put our foot in the water and say yes, because those are opportunities that are very special.

In this interview I am once again joined by Dr Ben Joffe, anthropologist and scholar practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism. Dr Joffe begins an interview series on demonology with a discussion about the spirit ontology of Tibet and the Himalayas. Dr Joffe explores the pre-Buddhist frameworks of relating to spirits and considers the degrees to which the arrival of Buddhism in Tibet erased, modified, or even incorporated those frameworks. Dr Joffe explains the unique methods of spirit domination, missionary geomancy, and other shamanism found in Buddhist Tantra and how these means were used to establish Buddhism in Tibet. Dr Joffe also discusses the inevitability of spirit contact for Tantric practitioners, what to do about predatory demons, the misunderstandings of Buddhist converts about the paranormal, and recalls his own stressful experiences with the spirit world. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep258-demonology-of-tibet-dr-ben-joffe Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics Include: 00:00 - Intro 01:06 - 3 part demonology 03:31 - Interaction with imported Indian cosmology 04:32 - A scholarly caveat 05:47 - Pre-Buddhist Tibetan entity and spirit frameworks 10:16 - Land spirits 12:23 - Drawbacks of secularisation and psychologising of Buddhism 14:34 - Right relationship with entities 18:16 - Origins of dedicating the merit 18:16 - The arrival of tantra in Tibet and Padmasambhava's spirit domination 22:30 - The essence of Buddhism 24:12 - Did Buddhism weaken Tibet? 26:11 - Tantric missionary technology of spirit domination 32:32 - Degrees of Buddhist integration with Tibetan practices and rituals 40:00 - Dr Robert Mayer's work to reevaluate the terma tradition 43:30 - Beyul and opening sacred sites 47:10 - Offering practices and Chod 50:47 - Spirit mediumship and offending spirits 54:13 - Geomancy 56:41 - Staking the demoness of the land 01:01:03 - Dark tantra and the ethics of subjugation 01:05:59 - What is a demon? 01:06:57 - Facist tantra and Western occultists 01:09:12 - The role of compassion 01:10:07 - Tantra as institutional shamanism? 01:13:11 - Interviewing protector deities 01:15:15 - Perceiving spirits 01:18:07 - Misunderstandings of Western Buddhist converts 0:24:54 - Buddhism and the cultural substrate 01:25:47 - IFS and shamanism 01:27:55 - Completion stage practice and the logic of yoga 01:30:49 - Are spirits just your own mind? 01:35:09 - Dudjom Lingpa's demon encounter in a dream 01:39:09 - Brahma, Buddha, and various levels of beings 01:40:44 - Are yidams just archetypes? 01:42:19 - Paradoxes of protection from spirits 01:45:35 - Predatory demons 01:48:29 - Many faces of Buddhism 01:50:05 - Outer, inner, secret 01:52:08 - Dream yoga and visionary sex 01:57:35 - Inevitability of spirit contact 01:58:09 - Ben's stressful experiences with the spirit world 02:06:10 - Alien abduction experiences 02:11:42 - Night terrors 02:13:30 - Cognitive dissonance of tantric practitioners 02:15:30 - Priestly class mindset 02:18:09 - Real tantric training 02:22:05 - Logistical challenges of creating tantric adepts 02:23:57 - Ben's magickal training Previous episodes with Dr Ben Joffe: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=joffe To find out more about Dr Ben Joffe, visit: - https://perfumedskull.com/ - http://www.skypressbooks.com/ … For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi' by Steve James

In our inaugural episode, host Robert Mayer, senior vice president of cybersecurity innovation at USTelecom, sits down with Jeanette McMillian, assistant director of supply chain and cyber with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and Mona Harrington, assistant director for the National Risk Management Center at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. The three talk about key risks and the priorities currently facing our supply chain ecosystem, how supply chain risks are communicated within the government, how artificial intelligence might be leveraged to identify and mitigate supply chain risks, and some of the biggest challenges we face in implementing AI solutions. Show notes Jeanette J. McMillian serves as the Assistant Director for the Supply Chain and Cyber Directorate (SCD) of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC). In this role, Ms. McMillian participates in interagency strategic programs and National Security Council initiatives to bolster the security of cyber and supply chains across the federal enterprise. She works closely with NCSC directorates, Office of Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) components, and other Departments and Agencies, specifically the Departments of Homeland Security and Defense, to address supply chain security as a critical component of the National Counterintelligence Security and National Cyber Strategy. Mona Harrington was selected to lead the National Risk Management Center (NRMC) at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in September of 2022.

Findet der SC Bern unter dem neuen Trainer Jussi Tapola zurück zum Erfolg? War das Nachtreten gegenüber Rikard Grönborg bei den ZSC Lions korrekt? Sind Langnau und Kloten auf dem richtigen Weg? Wie überraschend war der Nummer-5-Draft David Reinbachers einerseits und der Monster-Vertrag Timo Meiers andererseits? Und ist Patrick Fischer noch der richtige Schweizer Nationaltrainer?Diesen und anderen Fragen gehen die drei Moderatoren des Eisbrechers in der finalen Episode der Saison 2022/23 nach, bevor sich der Eishockey-Podcast von Tamedia in die Sommerferien verabschiedet.
Der Erste kehrt zurück! Im Coronaapril 2020 war Robert Mayer der erste offizielle Puck Off Gast. In den letzten gut drei Jahr ist viel passiert, verdammt viel, was es zu bereden gibt - inklusive dem Meistertitel. Es findet dabei echt alles Platz. Begonnen bei sehr hockeytechnischen Dingen wie den Schlittschuhen, dann ganz generell über die Meistersaison, über das Geschehene der letzten drei Jahre, bis hin zum aktuellen Sommertraining. Ausserdem ist es kein geringerer als Tanner Richard der mit einer Frage über die sozialen Medien eine echte Anekdotenperle aus Robert Mayer rausdrückt. Wir nennen es mal das Hemd-Gate. Walsi hat ausserdem eine schon beinahe obligate Dielsdorf-Frage zu stellen, die ins Leere läuft. Raphi meldet sich tatsächlich aus dem Urlaub und es wird zum Ende der Episode hin gemunkelt, dass er Probleme mit der griechischen Küstenwache hat. Hagi ist mal wieder zu spät und muss dann unbedingt gleich mit fachspezifischem Geplapper die Episode so richtig lancieren. Insgesamt - gerade für den Sommer - nicht viel Neues, was die Jungs anbelangt. Dafür umso mehr, was Robert Mayer inhaltlich beiträgt und daher überziehen die Jungs wieder einmal dezent (es liegt wohl an den Genfern).
Heute mit diesen Themen: In Brienz gilt nach wie vor die Phase «Rot». Es wird gewartet und gehofft. Kurz vor dem Ereignis beginnt die Phase «Blau». Diese hat überregionale Auswirkungen, da auch die Albulalinie der RhB sowie die Kantonsstrassen in der Region gesperrt sind. Das Fazit der aktuellen Bündner Fischereistatistik ist ernüchternd. Noch nie stellten sich so wenige Fischerinnen und Fischer an Bündner Gewässer. Und noch nie fingen sie so wenig. Flims muss sich einen neuen Gemeindepräsidenten suchen. Martin Hug tritt im kommenden Jahr in Flims nicht zur Wiederwahl an die Gemeindespitze an. Martin Hug krönt seine Bergbahn-Karriere. Im Januar 2025 wird er CEO der Bergbahnen Zermatt. Der Bündner Meister Eishockey-Goalie Robert Mayer: Vor kurzem ist der in Haldenstein aufgewachsene Robert Mayer mit Servette Schweizer Meister geworden und spielt aktuell an der Eishockey WM in Lettland und Finnland.
Le Genève-Servette affronte Zoug, à partir de vendredi, pour les demi-finales des playoffs. Zoug, double champion en titre, qui a l'expérience des grands rendez-vous et un gardien, qui a tout d'un épouvantail... bref, des matches qui s'annoncent serrés même si Genève-Servette a toutes les armes pour se qualifier pour la finale. Sébastien Beaulieu, entraîneur des gardiens du GSHC, était invité de Béatrice Rul, à 7h35, dans Radio Lac Matin.Genève-Servette a dû s'employer pour battre Lugano, en 1/4 de finale des playoffs, alors même que les Grenat avaient terminé en tête de la saison régulière:"On a affronté une équipe qui a fini à la dixième place de la saison régulière mais qui n'avait pas du tout cette valeur. On a un passif contre cette équipe (...) et moi je n'étais pas très content de l'affronter car je savais que cette équipe allait venir à la bataille. Le pire c'est passé lors du match un, quand on a complètement dominé: Lugano a tout changé et joué très solide, par la suite".Une qualification dans l'adversité qui va, sans doute, servir pour la suite des playoffs:"On a construit beaucoup d'adversité, on est une équipe avec beaucoup de caractère individuel et il fallait créer un collectif. Dans les playoffs, ça se joue différemment. On a été surconfiant après le match un, on s'est fait prendre. Ce quart de finale va être très très utile pour éviter les erreurs dans les prochaines semaines"Ce quart de finale a été marqué par le goal du gardien, Robert Mayer:"C'est rare dans les playoffs. Il y a une prise de risque quand un gardien tente ce geste. Il essayait depuis longtemps (...) c'est le gardien le plus doué avec sa canne de Suisse"Place, à présent, à la demi-finale, face à Zoug, double champion en titre:"Ca ne va pas être simple. J'ai toujours cru en Zoug. A la mi-saison, ils étaient loin derrière. Cette équipe a deux championnats en poche, elle a retourné une finale face à Zurich, moi, je respecte".Un homme fait figure d'épouvantail: le gardien zougois, Leonardo Genoni vainqueur des 7 des 11 dernières playoffs:"Dans les prochaines heures, je vais présenter à l'équipe la façon de jouer face à Genoni, qui a eu un saison difficile. Il a beaucoup d'expérience, il est très fort dans les playoffs".
As long as there have been superheroes, people have been making fun of them, but the deconstructionist satires of superheroes really kicked into gear in the 80s. A precursor to stuff like Watchmen and Squadron Supreme, though, wasn't a comic at all--it was a novel, SUPERFOLKS! by Robert Mayer. In riffing on superheroes and their place in pop culture in the alienated post-Watergate US, it was a weird, silly, exuberant, and often tasteless--just like superhero comics themselves.

Wer ist Robert Mayer? Diese Frage ist gar nicht so einfach zu beantworten. Natürlich, Robert Mayer ist Eishockey-Goalie – aber gerade bei seinem Beruf fängt es schon an, kompliziert zu werden. An sich wäre der 32-Jährige noch bis 2024 beim HC Davos unter Vertrag gestanden, doch nach nur einer Saison kam es im letzten Frühjahr zum Bruch. Es folgten Monate der Ungewissheit, ehe er auf Leihbasis nach Langnau ging. Die nächsten zwei Jahre wird Mayer nun für Genf spielen und in jener Stadt leben, die für ihn wie ein zweites zuhause ist. Denn wo er sich zuhause fühlt, das kann Mayer lange Zeit nicht sagen. Er kommt als Vierjähriger mit seiner Mutter und dem älteren Bruder aus Tschechien in die Schweiz, geht später nochmals für zwei Jahre zurück, um sich dann definitiv in Chur niederzulassen. Mayer fühlt sich hin- und her gerissen. In Tschechien ist er der Schweizer, in der Schweiz der Tscheche. Er wird gehänselt, hat Mühe in der Schule – und findet im Eishockey eine Flucht aus dem Alltag. Doch die Kindheit prägt Mayer. Er habe sich immer verstellt, sagt er. Mayer ist überzeugt, dass dies aus seiner Kindheit rührt, weil er ja immer irgendwo habe reinpassen müssen. Doch dann fährt er im Sommer 2017 mit einem Quad mit 80 km/h gegen einen Baum, verblutet beinahe innerlich – und entscheidet nach diesem Unfall, sein Leben radikal zu ändern.
In 1847, Herman Helmholtz, arguably the most important German physicist of the nineteenth century, published his formulation of what became known as the conservation of energy--unarguably the most important single development in physics of that century, transforming what had been a conglomeration of separate topics into a coherent field unified by the concept of energy. In Helmholtz and the Conservation of Energy: Contexts of Creation and Reception (MIT Press, 2021), Kenneth Caneva offers a detailed account of Helmholtz's work on the subject, the sources that he drew upon, the varying responses to his work from scientists of the era, and the impact on physics as a discipline. Caneva describes the set of abiding concerns that prompted Helmholtz's work, including his rejection of the idea of a work-performing vital force, and investigates Helmholtz's relationship to both an older generation of physicists and an emerging community of reformist physiologists. He analyzes Helmholtz's indebtedness to Johannes Müller and Justus Liebig and discusses Helmholtz's tense and ambivalent relationship to the work of Robert Mayer, who had earlier proposed the uncreatability, indestructibility, and transformability of force. Caneva examines Helmholtz's continued engagement with the subject, his role in the acceptance of the conservation of energy as the central principle of physics, and the eventual incorporation of the principle in textbooks as established science. Corinne Doria is a historian specializing in the social history of medicine. She is a lecturer at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in Shenzhen and teaches Disability Studies at Sciences-Po (Paris). Her work focuses on the history of ophthalmology and visual impairment in the West. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Guests on this podcast express their own opinions, experience, and conclusions. The mention of any product, service, organization, activity, or therapy should not be construed as an ASCO endorsement. Welcome to JCO's Cancer Stories-- The Art of Oncology, brought to you by the ASCO podcast network, a collection of nine programs covering a range of educational and scientific content and offering enriching insight into the role of cancer care. You can find all of these shows, including this one, at podcast.asco.org. Today, my guest on this podcast is Dr. Robert J. Mayer. Dr. Mayer is the Stephen B. Kay Family Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School where he is also the Faculty Associate Dean of Admissions, in addition, the faculty Vice President for Academic Affairs for Medical Oncology at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Dr. Mayer was raised in Jamaica, New York. And, Bob, I always thought you were raised in Brooklyn, but I looked it up on the map. And it looks like Jamaica is about two blocks in the middle of Brooklyn. So we'll say you're from Jamaica. Actually, I was a little bit to the east of there in Nassau County. That counted a lot then, Queens versus Nassau, but anyway. So it gets even more esoteric. Bob received his undergraduate degree in 1965 from Williams College, which is way out west in Massachusetts, and then went to Harvard where he got his MD in 1969. He did his residency in internal medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City and then was a clinical associate in the medicine branch of the National Cancer Institute from 1971 to 1974. He served a fellowship in medical oncology at what was then the Sidney Farber Cancer Institute. And then he joined the faculty in 1975. He has spent much of his career at leading clinical research in leukemia and GI malignancies. He was the chair of the CALGB, now called the Alliance TI Cancer Committee for years. But, perhaps more importantly, he was director of the fellowship program at, originally, the Sidney Farber and then the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for 36 years. And then he was also head of the fellowship program at the Dana-Farber/Partners cancer program from 1995 until 2011. And, frankly, he was my fellowship director from 1982 to 1985. So I owe a great part of my career to Dr. Mayer. He's co-authored over 400 peer-reviewed papers and another 130 chapters and reviews. He serves as associate editor for both the Journal of Clinical Oncology and The New England Journal of Medicine. And, as have many guests on this program, he served as president of ASCO, in his case, in 1997, 1998. And he received the ASCO Distinguished Achievement Award in 2019 for his ongoing leadership in our society. Dr. Mayer, welcome to our program. Pleasure to be with you, Dan. So I have a lot of questions. And, again, I usually do this, you know, two guys in a cab. How did you do that in the first place? What got you interested in oncology coming out of Williams and at Harvard? And, at that time, there wasn't much in oncology. What made you want to take care of cancer patients? Well, I was a third-year medical student at Harvard sort of sleepwalking through the curriculum, undecided what my life was going to be, planning to go back to New York, and I came across an attending physician on a pediatrics rotation, a hematologist by the name of David Nathan. And we hit it off. And I became really interested in blood cells and how looking at smears and bone marrow morphology could tell you a lot about the status and health and nutrition of individual patients. Nathan took a shine to me. And, when I was a fourth-year student and was going to face probably a military service, and there were military actions going on in Southeast Asia, he called me to his home one night and shoved a whole pile of paper in front of me, said fill this out. I want it back tomorrow. And this was an application to be a clinical associate at the National Cancer Institute where he had spent several years I guess a decade before. So I did what I was told. And, when I was a intern, I guess my first day as an intern, I got an overhead page from the-- in the hospital, call from Bethesda informing me that I had been accepted. I had had 10 or 11 interviews. One of them turned out to be a person who would be important in my life as a friend and a mentor, George Canellos, who was first time I met him. And, in 1971, I found myself at the NIH. That's quite a story. And Dr. Nathan, of course, went on to start the Jimmy Fund, probably had already started the Jimmy Fund Clinic at the time, and became the CEO, I think, of Children's Hospital in Boston. He became the CEO of Dana-Farber actually. I do want to just recollect with you my first day or two in Bethesda because some of the people who found themselves there took it more seriously than others. And I was assigned to the medicine branch. And the medicine branch had a chief who was a breast cancer-oriented investigator by the name of Paul Carbone who went on from there to an illustrious career as the founding head of the Cancer Center at the University of Wisconsin and the leader of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group. And Paul, at that point, the first day I met him, told us that, if we messed around, moonlighted, didn't show up, we'd be on a Coast Guard Cutter as fast as he could do the paperwork because, technically, we had a position in the Public Health Service. Under Carbone, there were two branches. One was leukemia, and that was headed by Ed Henderson. He was a lanky guy from California, a wonderful man, went on to a career with Cancer and Leukemia Group B and with the Roswell Park in Buffalo for many years. And he was my branch chief. And the other branch was solid tumors. They weren't solid tumors like we think of them today. They were lymphomas. And that was headed by Vince DeVita and had Bob Young, George Canellos, Bruce Chabner, and Phil Schein, all illustrious founders of so much that has become oncology. So that was the setting. And the last thing I'll mention was about this. I came there as a trained internist, but I was assigned to pediatric leukemia. And I learned very quickly that what separated the wheat from the chaff, in terms of families, parents thinking that you were a good doctor, was your ability to maintain the 25 gauge scalp vein as venous access in these children because there were no port-a-caths, no Hickman lines, and, obviously, access was something that was critically important. You know, I think everybody who is listening to this needs to understand that what you just described started out really with just Gordon Zubrod who then brought in Frei, Holland-- or Holland first and then Freireich. And then they brought in the next group, which I believe you would agree is Canellos, DeVita, Bob Young, and others. And then you were sort of in the third wave. And you could just see it began to expand the whole field of oncology really just from a few people going out. Do you agree with that? I do. I do. When I came to the NIH in 1971, there was no defined, certified subspecialty of medical oncology. The first time the medical oncology board examination was given was in 1973. It was given every other year. I was in the group that took it the second time in 1975, but this really wasn't a subspecialty. In 1973 also was the time that the first comprehensive multi-authored textbook on medical oncology was published by Jim Holland and Tom Frei, Cancer Medicine. And I remember devouring that as I prepared for the board examination, but there was no book like that. There was no reference, no UpToDate, no computer to surf the web and find information. And so this was all brand new. It was quite exciting to be there as part of the action. You sort of jumped ahead on what I wanted to ask you, but I'm interested in the establishment of medical oncology as a subspecialty. Can you maybe talk about Dr. BJ Kennedy and his role in that? I think he was pretty instrumental. Was he not? BJ was at the University of Minnesota. He was an extraordinarily decent man. And, somehow, the internal medicine establishment viewed him as a peer and a colleague, which I would have to say was not what they considered many of the pioneers, if you will, in medical oncology. I can remember, in my second or third year at the NIH, traveling around the country to look at fellowship programs. And I was always being met by senior established hematologists who arched their eyebrows and said now where's the pathophysiology. Where is the science here? They really thought that the animal models, the mouse models, the Southern Research Institute that Gordon Zubrod had been such a pioneer in fostering was pseudoscience. I can also remember, when I found myself back in Boston, the establishment of Harvard Medical School didn't initially take oncology very seriously, but there were patients. And there was optimism. And all of us in that generation really believed that we could make a difference, and we could learn a lot and do good for patients and for medicine. And I think we have. So, in my opinion, now, appropriately, our fellows have a very strict curriculum of what they're supposed to learn and how and when and why laid out, again, in a pretty rigorous formal manner. You told me before, at the NCI, it was just sort of learn it. It's up to you. Can you talk about that training? And then, when you went to the Sidney Farber, you then turned that into a training program. The medicine branch was fantastic training, but it was learning from taking care of patients and from your colleagues. The quality of my peers was extraordinary, but there was no formal curriculum. The faculty there each were doing research, the members of the faculty. And, for a month, they would come out of their cave, if you will, their laboratory, and they were very smart and were doing fascinating things, but they didn't have long-term patients. Or there was no real process. And the NCI was sort of like a Veterans Administration hospital in the sense that it opened around 7:30 or 8:00 in the morning, closed at 5:00 or 6:00 in the afternoon. One of us would be on call at night with a couple of nurses, but it was rather primitive in its support mechanisms. We were assigned a group of patients. And then, on rotation, those patient numbers would increase. And we were expected to do everything conceivable for that patient. And, at that time, the oncology care offered in Bethesda at the NIH or the NCI was free. It was paid for by the government. And much similar care was not available in other places. So I would have patients flying in from Omaha and New York or Norfolk or Tampa, Florida. And they would be housed in a motel that was on the edge of the NIH reservation, but, if one wants to talk about continuity of care, you knew everything about every one of those patients because you were the only person who knew them. So what were the circumstances then that you ended up in Boston? Well, that's an interesting story because it gets back to David Nathan. I was working after my clinical year in a basic laboratory as I could find. It was run by Robert Gallo, Bob Gallo, who was one of the co-discoverers years later of the HIV virus. But, one day, I got a phone call from Dr. Nathan's secretary saying that he was going to be in Washington a week from Tuesday or whatever. And he wanted to meet with me in the garden of the Mayflower Hotel. OK, fine. So I trotted over to the Mayflower Hotel, and there was Dr. Nathan. And he said, you know, Dr. Farber is getting old, but there's a new building. And there's going to be a cancer center. And he's just recruited Tom Frei to come from MD Anderson. And it's time for you to come back to Boston. Didn't say would you like to come back, would you think about coming. No, he, just applied to the NIH, shoved the papers. Here, it's time for you to come back to Boston. So, a few Saturdays after, I flew up to Boston. And, in that interim, Dr. Farber passed away. He had a heart attack, an MI. And there was Tom Frei who I met for the first time, made rounds with him. We hit it off. And he told me that he would like me to spend one year as a fellow and then join the faculty and become an assistant professor. Well, I didn't need a plane to fly back to Washington. I thought this was tremendous because I was looking at hematology scholarships around the country. And there was no career path. And this seemed to be a career path in a field that I was really interested in. And he talked to me really about coming back to do leukemia because that's what I had been doing at the NIH. And, a year later, I found myself, July 1, 1974, being part of the second fellowship class at what's now Dana-Farber. There were six of us. There were six the year before. We were piecing it together step by step. There, again, was nothing chiseled in marble. There was no tradition. This was try to make it work and learn from what works. And, what doesn't work, we'll change. You must have had a lot of insecurity coming into a program that really had just started. There had to be chaos involved in that. Well, there was a little chaos, but, to be honest, I was really engaged in it because it was exciting. I thought that oncology, as I still do, is this marvelous specialty or subspecialty that unites science and humanism. And, because other people weren't interested or maybe weren't capable of providing what we thought was the right level of care, to be able to sort of write the playbook was a terrific opportunity. We sort of-- and it extended into the year that you were a fellow as well-- followed the medicine branch mantra in the sense that we assigned fellows patients. And they took care of those patients and were expected to do everything that was necessary for them. There weren't rotations at that time that you would spend a month on the breast cancer service and then a month doing lymphoma. You would see new patients or follow-up patients. We didn't really have enough patients or enough faculty at that point to be smart enough to think about that being a better way or an alternative way to structure a trainee's time. I remember, at the end of my first year, when I finished that year as what I think Tom Frei called a special fellow, I was the attending on the next day, which was July 1. And I remember that a fellow, a first-year fellow who was just starting, Bob Comis who became also the chairman of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group years later, a marvelous lung cancer investigator, was the trainee. And, on that day, we went ahead and did a bone marrow on a patient with small cell lung cancer and being a fellowship director just started because there was no one doing it. And Frei said please move ahead. I have to say, when I started in 1982, I just assumed this was the way everybody in the country was training fellows in oncology. It really didn't occur to me that that was only a few years old and the way you had set it up. A few years ago, the Dana-Farber had a banquet to celebrate the 48-year career of a guy named Robert J. Mayer. And I was asked to speak. And I got up. There were over 300 people in the audience, all of whom had been trained there. And, as I looked around, I sort of put my prepared words aside and said look at the people sitting next to you. They are either former or to be presidents of ASCO, ACR. They're cancer center directors, department chairs, division chiefs, and a bunch of really terrifically trained oncologists all due to one guy, and you're the one. So you started with Bob Comis-- I've never heard you tell that story-- to really training some of the greatest oncologists in the world in my opinion, myself excluded in that regard, but, nonetheless, you must be quite proud of that. Well, yes, but I want to flip it around the other way because, for me, this became a career highlight, the opportunity to shape the patterns, to make the people who trained here leaders, and to have them-- right now, the director of the NCI is a Dana-Farber alumnus. To have people who are of that quality-- and you certainly represent that, as an ASCO president and one of the hallmark leaders of the breast cancer community-- this is what a place like Dana-Farber and Harvard Medical School, hopefully, not too much arrogance, is supposed to be doing. And to have that opportunity, to be able to fill a vacancy that nobody even appreciated was a vacancy, and then to develop it over enough time that one could really see what worked and see what didn't work is an opportunity that most people don't have. And I'm so grateful for it. Now, Bob, I want to just, in the last few minutes here, you've obviously been a major player in ASCO. Can you kind of reflect over the last 25 years since you were ASCO president, the changes you've seen, and what you think of your legacy? I know you don't like to brag too much, but I think there's a reason you got the Distinguished Service Award. And can you just reminisce a bit about what's happened and then where you think we're going as a field? Well, ASCO has been my professional organization. The first meeting I went to was in a hotel ballroom in Houston, the Rice Hotel, which doesn't exist anymore. And it was a joint meeting of ACR and ASCO in 1974. There were 250 people. And everybody was congratulating each other at the large number of attendees. I had the opportunity, in large part because of Tom Frei and George Canellos and other people, to become involved in picking abstracts for leukemia presentations, being part of the training committee, and then chairing the training committee. I actually had the opportunity to be one of the four people who started the awards program, which now has the Young Investigator Award and Career Development Award and things of that sort. These are just opportunities because they weren't there before. And, if you're willing, and you put in the time, I guess people come back to you and give you the chance to do these things. I became then involved in the JCO, the Journal of Clinical Oncology. I became involved in the debate about physician-assisted suicide and palliative care that led to some very educational debates and probably spawned the field, to some degree, of palliative care. I had the opportunity to be at the forefront of starting the Leadership Development Program that was really Allen Lichter's idea, but I was able to devote the time to make that happen. And, most recently, I've been on the Conquer Cancer Foundation now for almost two decades. And watching that grow has been a joy. ASCO, when I came, was a very small trade organization, if you will, didn't quite know the questions to ask, had a hired office, a management office, that was based in Chicago, came to Alexandria in about 1994 or somewhere in that range with its own office and its own staff, and now is the world organization for oncology. And I think that that growth, that expansion, that international, multidisciplinary pattern, if you will, is a reflection of the growth of oncology in medicine. I have to say, if you take a look at the popularity poll of what the best and the brightest young physicians choose in their careers, when I was in training and, Dan, when you were in training, most went into cardiology. Maybe some went into GI. Now there are more people going into oncology than any other medical subspecialty. Maybe that'll change after COVID, but that's the way it's been. And our hospitals now are filled with cancer patients, and those hospitals are very dependent on the care that we provide cancer patients. I guess the other thing I would say is, looking from a guy with some hair left, although gray, but looking at it from afar, all of those high-dose chemotherapy programs, the notion of dose, of cell poisons, alkylating agents, the solid tumor autologous marrow programs that were so fashionable in the 1980s, have been, in large part, replaced by such elegant, targeted therapy, now immunotherapy, circulating DNA. Who would have thunk any of that when I was taking care of those children with leukemia 45 years ago? So I think this is such an exciting field. I'm so-- continue to be so pleased and proud of the quality of the trainees. Last night, we had a virtual graduation session for the people completing their fellowship here. And I hate to say it. They're as good as ever. And, if we thought and, Dan, if you thought your colleagues that you all and we all were the best, they're all phenomenal. And it's really a reflection on how the pioneers in this field had a vision, how the need for science to understand cancer was so important, and how medicine has changed and how oncology now is a respected and acknowledged discipline of scholarly work. Well, you had two things that I'm fond of commenting on. One of those is I frequently say publicly I wish I was 30 years younger for a lot of reasons, but because of the scientific excitement that's going into oncology and, also, so that I could run the way I used to, but I can't. That's one. The second is I don't think I would choose me to be a fellow. I'm really intimidated when I do interviews with our residents and say, you know, I wasn't nearly in that kind of category of the people we're interviewing now, which is great. I think our field is in good hands, going to move forward, and things are going. Bob, we've talked about a lot of your contributions to training and education, but you've also had a major influence on the way patients with leukemia are treated. Can you talk more about where the 7 and 3 regimen came from? The 7 and 3 or 3 and 7 regimen-- 3 days of an anthracycline, 7 days of continuous infusional cytosine arabinoside, was developed in the early 1970s. And it was developed by Jim Holland, more than anyone else, when he was at Roswell Park. And it emerged from a series of randomized, phase III trials conducted by what was then called the Acute Leukemia Group B, what became CALGB and then the Alliance. In the early 1980s, the late Clara Bloomfield, who I considered a giant in the world of leukemia, invited me to write a review of the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia for seminars in oncology that she was editing. And, in preparing that, I started reading a series of manuscripts published in the early 1970s, which meticulously, step by step, examined the value of two versus three days of anthracycline subq versus IV push versus infusional cytosine arabinoside, 3 days, 5 days, 7 days, 10 days of infusional cytosine arabinoside. And this was all really work of Jim Holland. He was a magnificent scholar, a humanist, and a tremendous booster too and giant in the start of this field. Thank you. I agree. Bob, we've run out of time, but I want to just thank you for taking time today to speak to me and our listeners, but also thank you for what I consider the many contributions you've made, both scientifically-- we didn't really even get into that, your work on leukemia and GI-- but I think, more importantly, establishing a training program that's been the model for, probably worldwide, how to train people in oncology and the contributions you've made to ASCO. So, for all that, I and everybody else are very appreciative. Thanks a lot. My pleasure. It's a pleasure to be here with you.

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off talking about some new sound effects that Kyle has been working on and his recent failed Turkey hunt. After the discussion about hunting and how big of an idiot Kyle is, they start with some news. First off, a person by the name of DG recalls a strange sighting they had one night around 2:00am on the west side of Joliet, Illinois. The person was just chillin watching some television with the windows open when they heard what sounded like a woman screaming. Upon closer inspection the person saw some large humanoid with black wings perched on a neighbor's roof! Then, a Utah man claims he was just looking through his spotting scope in his backyard when he spotted something strange on one of the nearby mountain sides. He grabbed his phone and shot a short clip of something upright, hominid looking walking up a ridge. Was it Bigfoot? The man who shot the footage certainly thinks so. After the break Kyle brings up some more of these strange sightings of the Black Stick Man! The Black Stick Men are a species of strange humanoid beings rarely seen by humans. They are often described as being similar to typical cartoon stick men, making them some of the strangest beings ever encountered. Black Stick Men are often described as being exactly identical to the typical cartoon stick man: tall, thin, and black in color. They are said to move in an odd galloping motion; some are even said to float above the ground. Supposedly they are two-dimensional creatures, meaning they are exactly the same regardless of what angle they are viewed from. A variant kind of enromous stick men have occassionally been seen in the UK. Then Cam brings up the true story behind the famous song Phantom 309. On Jan. 29, 1963, John William “Pete” Trudelle drove a tanker truck to the Chelsea River Bulk Petroleum Facility north of Boston to load up on 4,600 gallons of gasoline. Trudelle turned around and started to make the several-hour trip back to Keene, New Hampshire, near the eastern bank of the Connecticut River, just across from the state of Vermont. He started up Route 1, just north of Boston in Saugus, Mass., on the Newburyport Turnpike. The intersection of Route 129 and Route 1 in Saugus was treacherous. Trudelle passed under the bridge, where a blind spot impeded drivers as they went into a dip. Little did Trudelle know that there was a car stopped under the bridge, where it was waiting for a school bus to pick up children. There was no way Trudelle could stop. Rather than plowing into the back of the two vehicles stopped, he crashed the tanker into the bridge abutment. Trudelle was unable to escape the cab as the 4,600 gallons of gas erupted. The driver of the car, Robert Mayer of Stamford, Connecticut, tried to escape, but was overtaken by the flames. The bus was engulfed in flames, but the six children and the driver on board had time to escape. About 10 seconds after the passengers and driver got out, the bus burst into flames.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the rise of the idea of perpetual motion and its decline, in the 19th Century, with the Laws of Thermodynamics. For hundreds of years, some of the greatest names in science thought there might be machines that could power themselves endlessly. Leonardo Da Vinci tested the idea of a constantly-spinning wheel and Robert Boyle tried to recirculate water from a draining flask. Gottfried Leibniz supported a friend, Orffyreus, who claimed he had built an ever-rotating wheel. An increasing number of scientists voiced their doubts about perpetual motion, from the time of Galileo, but none could prove it was impossible. For scientists, the designs were a way of exploring the laws of nature. Others claimed their inventions actually worked, and promised a limitless supply of energy. It was not until the 19th Century that the picture became clearer, with the experiments of James Joule and Robert Mayer on the links between heat and work, and the establishment of the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics. With Ruth Gregory Professor of Mathematics and Physics at Durham University Frank Close Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Oxford and Steven Bramwell Professor of Physics and former Professor of Chemistry at University College London Producer: Simon Tillotson.

El choque entre el superhéroe y la realidad es una de esas premisas que llevamos viendo tanto tiempo en los comics que a estas alturas parece casi natural. Que los héroes fracasen, mueran, se retiren o se vuelvan malvados es algo que hemos aceptado en este tipo de narrativa. Pero hubo una época en lo que todo esto fue más rompedor; principalmente lo fue en los ochenta con los trabajos de Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons, Frank Miller o Mark Gruenwald, pero antes de todos ellos existió una novela satírica post-moderna, Superfolks, que tiraba por los suelos todo el universo de Superman y sus contemporáneos. Víctor nos habla de ella en el podcast de hoy; parodias, sexo, referencias setenteras y mala leche pasada de moda. Y un tema de The Kinks. Disfruten del audio!
