In this heartfelt episode of Paige's Pod, Paige sits down with Laurie Roberts, founder of Larry Roberts Chicago, to talk about love, loss, creativity, and what it means to carry someone's legacy forward through art. Laurie shares the cinematic “meet cute” of how she met her late husband, Larry Roberts - an artist who created from deep emotion, using painting as therapy and self-expression. We talk about the vulnerable (and very real) difficulty of selling work that feels like a piece of your soul, and how Laurie supported Larry through the behind-the-scenes business side while he stayed rooted in the creative process. Laurie opens up about Larry's acute myeloid leukemia (AML) diagnosis in 2017, his final series of paintings, and the early days of grief - when everything went off the market and she didn't yet know what came next. That “next” became a powerful new chapter: transforming Larry's artwork into heirloom-quality, hand-knotted rugs, textiles, and home pieces - crafted with artisans in India and built to last for generations.Together, Paige and Laurie talk about:The beauty (and challenge) of being a multi-passionate creativeWhy art and color can shift mood, support healing, and bring joy to everyday spacesTaking risks in business, pivoting when needed, and the truth about “overnight success”How creativity can support people through hard seasons - especially illness, caregiving, and griefLaurie's advice for anyone wanting to honor a loved one's artistic legacy in a meaningful wayThis conversation is tender, inspiring, and full of permission to keep creating - even when life breaks your heart.

That's a major piece of work. That can often take years. The preclinical work is obviously very important as indeed is understanding the natural history because it's really not practical to do placebo-controlled trials of gene therapies.In contrast to other studies, when we turn to phase 1 and phase 2, you'll notice that the patient numbers are often quite small. One is having to think carefully about surrogate measurements of response. Especially when in phase 3 studies, we may be thinking about withdrawing the existing, for example, enzyme replacement therapy because we believe the gene therapy will then be effective.That's just a few snapshots of where we've come and there's a lot more work to be done.In the next part, Dr. Longo will discuss the current treatment landscape and limitations in lysosomal disorders.

The contents of this presentation do not constitute an endorsement of any product or indication by Astellas. In this part, Dr. Longo will discuss the current treatment landscape and limitations in lysosomal disorders.Nicola Longo MD, PhDWhat I want to do today, is just place gene replacement therapy within the current landscape of lysosomal storage disorder treatment therapy. Gene therapy obviously has the potential of treating lysosomal disorder to correct the root cause of lysosomal storage disorder. The gene is defective, and what happen is that you can potentially either fix the gene or bypass the lack of the genetic product. But there are already therapies that are existing and are functioning. Obviously, in many cases, the lysosomal disorder is caused by defective production of an enzyme, which is defective.We can either replace the enzyme with enzyme replacement therapy, or provide chaperone for specific mutations that retain the synthesis of the enzyme, that however is not very functional. Another avenue that it is being reported is the utilization of substrate reduction therapy. A substrate accumulates, you prevent the synthesis of the substrate to reduce the accumulation of toxic material. What we know now is that this is not enough to produce many lysosomal disorders. In many cases, the lysosomal disorder result sometime in impairment of intracellular trafficking, and sometime in the function of other organelles.At the end, it results in the activation of the macrophagic system and inflammation. Already we have some therapy acting at this level. The end result of lysosomal storage disorder, there will be cell suffering and cell death, leading to a progression of the disease, and morbidity and mortality. Now, what therapy do we have available already? Obviously, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been around for quite some time.It has been the same thing that we do with gene therapy, except that instead of reintroducing the gene of the subject, we place gene of a subject who is not affected of the disease. This therapy has been proven effective in cases of MPS-1 and alpha-mannosidosis. But in many cases this has to be given way before symptoms start to be affected.Enzyme replacement therapy has been around for quite some time, starting with Gaucher disease, and now that it is available for a list of diseases that are there, so it's like Fabry, Gaucher, Pompe, different types of mucopolysaccharidosis, alpha-mannosidosis, acid lipase deficiency, 1 neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, and Niemann-Pick type A and B.Obviously the advantage of this therapy, they give back the enzyme that it is defective. But the disadvantage that many time they cannot enter specialized areas such as the brain. There is already the second generation of enzyme replacement therapy that it is available. With this second generation, some of the newer drugs are more effective in terms of cellular uptake, or in terms of having a prolonged half-life and prolonged activity.Then there are pharmacological chaperone therapy, and the one which is FDA approved is migalastat for Fabry disease, under study is ambroxol for Gaucher disease. The disadvantage of this therapy that only a selected number of mutations respond to this therapy.Substrate reduction therapy has been introduced for Gaucher disease many years ago with miglustat, and it was followed by eliglustat. Both of them are effective, and some of them more effective than other, simply because of the fewer side effects of eliglustat as compared to miglustat. But at the same time, eliglustat does not pass the blood brain barrier.Finally, the newer agents that are already administered, N-acetyl-L-leucine and arimoclomol, both approved for Niemann-Pick type C, they act more on the downstream effect of the lysosomal storage disorder, either by stabilizing neuronal cell activity or by reducing the inflammation that is present in the brain.In the next part, Dr. Longo will discuss gene replacement therapy in lysosomal disorders.
Nicola Longo MD, PhD, and Mark Roberts, MDDrs. Longo and Roberts discussed the current status of gene therapies in rare neuromuscular disorders in this eight-part podcast series.

The contents of this presentation do not constitute an endorsement of any product or indication by Astellas.In this part, Doctors Roberts and Longo will discuss treatment with gene therapies.Question: Can one administer AAV-mediated gene therapy repeatedly?Mark Roberts, MDI think the traditional view would have been no. One can think of gene therapy as a silver bullet. Hopefully, it will reach its target. But if it's not effective, that bullet has been shot, the immunological response has occurred, and it means redosing, at least with that particular vector, may become difficult. But this situation is changing and evolving as we have better understanding of immunological modulation for repeat testing. We were discussing this yesterday evening, weren't we, Professor Longo?Nicola Longo MD, PhDCorrect. Basically, the current AAV-based gene therapy cannot be readministered. It is either effective, or it doesn't work. The other thing is that even though in theory, one could utilize a different AAV vector with different immunogenicity, there is many times cross-reactivity among the different adenovirus, adeno-associated viruses. Now, there are approaches in animal models in which you give a strong immune suppression to prevent the creation of the immune response against the adeno-associated virus, and at least in the animal model, it has been possible to give some of the gene therapy repeatedly.The second approach that is being tested is with gene correction therapy, in which by using an RNA guide and the CRISPR/Cas9 system delivered by lipid nanoparticles, you basically correct some of the effective genetic information. Obviously, since this is done by lipid nanoparticles and not by an AAV, the immunity that you create is really not there. You can give this one repeatedly, and in theory, it can be given more than one time. But again, you are absolutely correct. The current gene therapy cannot be given twice, and either it works or it doesn't work.Question:vWill gene-therapy-treated patients be able to go back to the standard of care or enzyme replacement therapy?Mark Roberts, MDI think when we're talking to patients about the potential benefits of gene therapy and the amelioration of the requirement to have these infusions on a regular basis of ERT, the hope is that will work, but they need to be reassured that we can potentially go back to the ERT. Gene therapy is an important treatment, but we don't know the destination of the patient at the beginning, and we have to make it available to them to go back to ERT.One of the crucial questions, of course, though, is the basis of the immunological reaction that perhaps prevented the gene therapy being effective. If it's against the viral vector, well, okay. If it's against the transgene, not great. If it's against the functional protein, that becomes more difficult. It is somewhat, I think at this time, to be fair to say to patients, think of gene therapy as a trial treatment. It is somewhat a leap of faith and an important observation, of course, for the patient community, but just be aware there may be downsides.Nicola Longo MD, PhDThey totally agree with Dr. Roberts. In general, they should be able to go back to enzyme replacement therapy if the gene therapy is not effective. However, what we are starting to appreciate is that we need to understand the immune response, not just to the enzyme replacement therapy, but also to gene therapy. What this field is doing is forcing geneticists to deal with the immune response. I feel that historically has not been dealt together. The two things need to be integrated. The advantage of the gene therapy is that the protein is produced endogenously. There should be the development of some degree of tolerance with time in the body towards the endogenous continuous production of a protein.Now, will that happen all the time? I still do not know. Again, we need to understand much better what is the integration of the immune system with the response to gene therapy in the ongoing clinical trials.

Gene therapy obviously has the potential of answering many of the questions that we still have open in lysosomal disorder because they could restore the activity of the lysosome pretty much in the whole body, or at least in multiple tissues. As you have seen, gene therapy can be done ex vivo where we take cells from the affected patient, we correct the gene, or we put an extra gene that it is functional. Then we put them back by doing a bone marrow transplant, basically creating space for the cells that have been genetically modified to correct the lysosomal defect. The biggest approach this is done usually by lentiviruses that they integrate inside the genome.

The contents of this presentation do not constitute an endorsement of any product or indication by Astellas. In this part, Dr. Roberts will discuss immune responses and other safety concerns related to gene therapies.Mark Roberts, MDUndoubtedly, the immune system is a major issue in these patients. It would be fantastic if we could immunotolerize our patients and indeed prevent the rejection of the therapy. We've talked about the fact that these are viral vectors and of course there may be high seroprevalence of antibodies to these viral vectors, and it's very important in the pre-screening of patients who might be eligible to understand that at the beginning. These of course can have developed over the years and of course can be part of immunological memory and therefore extremely difficult and probably impractical to actually shift.On giving the treatment though as I think we're all aware there is this problem of the innate immunity and potential therefore for acute toxicities and then a learned or adaptive response with cytotoxic T cells and antibodies which may of course become high tighter neutralizing antibodies and potentially antibodies not only against the viral vector, even the functional protein, even the transgene are all theoretical possibilities with time. The capsid, the transgene, and even the protein product can all potentially induce an immunological event. Of course, all of these would lead to both potential patient changes and then a lack of efficacy of the treatment.Indeed, there have been some serious and indeed fatal problems in the gene therapy development program as I think we're all aware. Though many of these are thankfully been overcome. Spinal muscular atrophy has a gene therapy which is licensed, but there were early patients who actually had significant problems. A patient of just 6 months of age who developed kidney failure, two other patients who actually developed liver failure.In Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a very common condition, again there were significant issues and crucially in these patients who all have cardiomyopathy, it was heart failure and cardiac arrest that were big concerns and pulmonary edema and this was seen even with a CRISPR-based technology and is perhaps is best known but has been addressed the excellent myotubular myopathy patients, four patients died and crucially quite a long time after the gene therapy emphasizing the need to monitor these patients extremely carefully and these patients died of cholestatic liver failure albeit that they had a degree of liver dysfunction.That's changed our screening of course of patients, we're now all looking in myotubular patients for liver involvement and Rett syndrome as well. Now these immunoprophylaxis treatment regimes to hopefully try and reduce the immunological reaction against the gene are certainly evolving.This is just a summary of some of the other immunosuppressive regimes used in other disorders, for example, spinal muscular atrophy, but Pompe and MPS as examples of LSDs. Certainly these regimes will continue to evolve and are going to be very important in seeking to make sure that these treatments are effective. It reminds me somewhat of what's happened with enzyme replacement therapy that the use of these immunological strategies in infants has revolutionized the utility of those treatments in early patients.In the next part, Dr. Roberts will discuss lessons learned from gene therapy trials.

In this part, Dr. Roberts will discuss vectors, different strategies, modes of administration and targets in gene replacement therapies.Mark Roberts, MDNow in the broader sense, gene replacement therapy seeks to actually deliver genetic material directly into the host cell to influence gene expression. In the most simple idea, one of course has a vector, this is most commonly but not exclusively a virus, which can then be given intravenously for example, and can hope to potentially correct the condition within the individual cells using novel transgenes. Suitable candidate conditions for this as examples of genetic conditions are now well understood. And crucially, this applies not only towards some more recessive, but dominant and even accident conditions.Across the piece, one can see for example, mitochondrial problems, spinal muscular atrophy as is well known, X-linked myotubular myopathy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a very common condition affecting one in 3000 male individuals, Pompe disease of course, an important focus of the meeting here, but other very common conditions, for example, cystic fibrosis, immunological conditions and perhaps obviously very crucial in early work on gene therapy, hemophilia.Let's now think about the approaches to gene therapy. One can seek to work at the DNA level and gene replacement. In essence, one is trying to put a new transgene through into the nucleus that will ultimately be transcribed and translated and produce the important functional protein that is lost. Gene editing which is a very exciting new technology or CRISPR technology actually seeks to actually modify in vivo the actual mutations that are responsible for the pathogenic production of abnormal proteins and correcting these and actually producing a more normalized protein.But of course there are also RNA approaches where one seeks to actually repair the mRNA transcripts copied from the mutated gene. For example, this may be a novel approach that could be extremely useful in myotonic dystrophy, a multisystem condition. When we talk about the viral vectors, predominantly we're talking about viruses. Those such as adenoviruses and AAV viruses which have the virtue of not integrating into the host genome or at least not in a large amount, and those which deliberately seek to integrate into host genome such as retroviral or lentiviral systems that may be particularly useful for ex vivo systems.There are of course other ways to get genetic payloads into the nucleus, various polymers, nanoparticles and even cell penetrating peptides. Nanoparticles in particular is certainly on the ascendant. That being said, in a recent review of the clinical trials in gene therapy, it was certainly the viral vectors that stood out both in direct gene replacement with lentivirus and AAV, but also actually as delivery systems, for example, for gene editing. An example of what one is seeking to do with AAV, so of course one seeking to remove the native DNA, insert the new transgene directly into the vector and of course keen to make sure that there's a high transmission into the capsid producing a recombinant AAV, which then can be given as a treatment and hopefully produce a therapeutic increase in the functional protein that is deficit in the disorder.In the next part, Dr. Roberts will discuss immune responses and other safety concerns related to gene therapies.

In this part, Dr. Longo will discuss ongoing gene therapies in lysosomal disorders.Nicola Longo MD, PhDI'm going to present to discuss some example of ongoing gene therapy for lysosomal disorder. There are gene therapy in development for both Fabry disease and some of this involve ex vivo gene therapy, many others involve systemic administration with an AAV, Gaucher disease type 1 that affect the periphery, and Gaucher disease type 2, where the replacement should occur within the central nervous system because this condition affects the brain. There is already one approved gene therapy for lysosomal disorder, which is for the early onset metachromatic leukodystrophy. This has been approved both in Europe and now even in the United States, which consists of ex vivo gene therapy with the administration of an extra gene that restore the function of the defective enzyme. Now there are many others that are ongoing for the same indication. There are gene therapy programs for GM1 and GM2 gangliosidosis, and at least one for Krabbe disease. It is important to know that some of these condition are actually included in the recommended uniform screening panel. Basically, we would have access to patients in a timely manner for some of these conditions. Then there are several gene therapy under development for the mucopolysaccharidoses, including MPS-IH, MPS-II, MPS-IIIA and MPS-IV.There are different type of lysosomal disorders, the one caused by mutation, integral membrane protein, not enzyme within the lysosome, but protein that are present on the membrane of the lysosome. This gene therapy that have been tested, it is for cystinosis, that it is caused by a defective lysosomal and for Danon disease, which is caused by a deficiency of an integral membrane part. Finally, one lysosomal disorder, which obviously seems a metabolic condition, but it is really not, is glycogen storage disease type 2 or Pompe disease, in which there is the intralysosomal accumulation of glycogen. There are several ongoing clinical trials to try to correct the problem in this condition.Now, I'm going to discuss some of the most advanced program in the lysosomal storage disorder. This include one for Fabry, which is on an accelerated approval pathway with phase 1 and 2 data, one for Gaucher disease type 1. Obviously, I'm going to discuss the one that has been already approved for metachromatic leukodystrophy. There is one for Hunter syndrome, and the difference of the one for Hunter syndrome, it is an example of the direct administration of gene therapy within the central nervous system.Finally, there is one ongoing for glycogen storage disease type 2 or Pompe disease in adult patients. In gene therapy for metachromatic leukodystrophy, it was the first gene therapy approved for lysosomal disorder in human, and this requires harvesting the CD34 cell from affected patient and then introducing the [inaudible 00:04:32] gene back in this cell, and then placing them back inside the patient again. This has been very effective in patients who were treated early, and obviously, the treatment needs to occur before there is irreversible brain damage in this patient.In the next part, Dr. Roberts and Longo will discuss treatment with gene therapies.
Chelsea show real fight as the Blues come from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 away at Newcastle on Saturday. Manny and Simon review a truly shocking first half, before an incredible second-half turnaround that showed resilience, leadership, and belief.The hosts highlight standout performances from Reece James, João Pedro, and Robert Sánchez, all of whom played huge roles in dragging Chelsea back into the game. They also dig into the big question — why did Chelsea start so poorly, and how were they able to recover so dramatically after the break?Finally, attention turns to another massive test, with a preview of next weekend's clash against high-flying Aston Villa, as Chelsea look to build on this hard-earned point.

Bienvenidos, cinéfilos hierberos, a un nuevo episodio de Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas, cine, televisión, música y videojuegos para escuchar.Hoy, continuamos con nuestro ciclo dedicado al gran Aaron Sorkin –ese maestro del diálogo afilado que nos hace creer que la política puede ser tan entretenida como un partido de tenis verbal–, nos sumergimos en Charlie Wilson's War, esa película del 2007 que, admitámoslo, no es la primera que viene a la mente cuando pensamos en su filmografía, pero que destila ese ingenio sorkiniano que tanto adoramos.Imaginemos el panorama: finales de los años 80, la Guerra Fría en su apogeo, y un congresista texano llamado Charlie Wilson –conocido como "Good Time Charlie" por su afición a las fiestas, el whiskey y las compañías femeninas– que, de repente, se convierte en el artífice de la operación encubierta más grande de la historia de la CIA. La película se basa en el libro homónimo de George Crile, un tomo de 500 páginas repleto de detalles históricos que Sorkin adaptó con maestría, condensando intrigas geopolíticas en diálogos que chisporrotean como fuegos artificiales. ¿Cómo llegó Sorkin al proyecto? Pues, en un raro acto de agresividad profesional –él mismo lo admite–, leyó el libro y lo persiguió con ahínco, convirtiéndolo en el único guion que ha "cazado" de esa manera. Y vaya si lo logró: su énfasis en los personajes imperfectos pero heroicos, como Wilson, que pasa de playboy a salvador de los muyahidines afganos, es puro Sorkin, recordándonos sus obras como The West Wing, donde la burocracia se vuelve poesía.Tom Hanks interpreta a Wilson con esa calidez hankiana que hace que hasta un político corrupto parezca simpático. Detrás de cámaras, el director Mike Nichols, en lo que sería su última película, aportó su toque magistral y supo manejar el caos de enemigos históricos colaborando –pakistaníes, israelíes, afganos– en la narrativa real, algo que el guion de Sorkin plasma con ironía sutil.Julia Roberts, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Ned Beatty y Emily Blunt completan la constelación de estrellas de este filme que cuenta una historia tan absurda, que no puede sino ser cierta....¡Y lo es!La película fue bien recibida en general, con un 82% de aprobación en Rotten Tomatoes, donde se alaba cómo "entretiene e informa" gracias al guion astuto de Sorkin y actuaciones sólidas. Muchos críticos la vieron como una excelente comedia oscura basada en hechos reales, destacando a Hanks como un antihéroe encantador. Sin embargo, no todo fue aplausos: algunos la tildaron de "falsa y nada divertida", con "la peor actuación de la carrera de Roberts" En premios, brilló con 5 nominaciones a los Globos de Oro –mejor película comedia, actor para Hanks, actriz de reparto para Roberts, actor de reparto para Hoffman y guion para Sorkin–, más una nominación al Oscar para Hoffman como mejor actor de reparto. La Guerra de Charlie Wilson es, quizá, la película menos conocida y popular de Sorkin –eclipsada por hits como La Red Social o El Juicio de los 7 de Chicago–, y tal vez la más "floja" de su catálogo. Pero, no les quepa duda, incluso una "floja" de Sorkin es mejor que muchas de las producciones que inundan las pantallas hoy en día: cargada de inteligencia, humor sofisticado y una lección histórica que, con un guiño irónico, nos recuerda que la política puede ser absurdamente entretenida. ¿Listos para desentrañar más? ¡No se pierdan el episodio!Patreon: patreon.com/cinefiliayotrashierbasCorreo: cinefiliayotrashierbas@gmail.com No olviden suscribirse, compartir este episodio y dejar un comentario y un like, eso nos ayudará a crecer y a encontrar más audiencia. ¡Que lo disfruten!#AaronSorkin #TomHanks #Cine #JuliaRoberts
Why Dec. 25? Why so much Christmas conflict & controversy in Christianity's history? Why is Christmas so important to Christianity? And to America? In this episode, I ask my guest, Dr. Carey Roberts, the following questions: ►Why is Christmas such a grand celebration? What does this tell us about Christianity? ►Did it take a while for Christmas to take a central role in Christianity►What's the difference between recognition and celebration of Christmas►Did Christmas piggyback on existing Roman pagan traditions? ►How did Christmas enter America's culture? If not the Puritans, then which immigrant group introduced Christmas to America? ►Were there any regional differences in the celebration of Christmas?►When did U.S. businesses begin to capitalize on Christmas? ►Would President Grant have witnessed a similar Christmas celebration in Boston and Savannah? ►Would George Washington recognize our Christmas? How about Andrew Jackson? Abraham Lincoln? Teddy Roosevelt? ►What happened to Christmas after WWII? ►Is it a bad thing that non-Christians and/or non-practicing Christians celebrate Christmas?
Valenti and Rico started the show with their thoughts on what WFAN's Evan Roberts had to say about his confidence in the Knicks in a potential playoff series with the Pistons. They spent some time discussing why they all disagree with Roberts before they shifted to break down some recent comments from Kelvin Sheppard about his satisfaction with how his defense has played recently. The guys had an unconventional third hour, which included a Christmas movie draft and then ended the show with their disappointment with Michigan football's strict policy when it comes to asking its players about Sherrone Moore.
This week we feature Jaelee Roberts, the lead singer and guitar player for Sister Sadie. We talk with Jaelee about growing up in a prominent bluegrass family, performing with an award-winning band, recording her solo albums and performing on the Grand Ole Opry. You will also hear a couple of songs from Jaelee's newest solo album.
In this episode of the Teach Outdoors Podcast, Lauren MacLean is joined by educator, writer, and author Carolyn Roberts, whose work centers on re-storying education through story, land-based learning, and relational ways of knowing.Carolyn invites us to slow down and reconsider the stories that shape our classrooms, our relationships, and our responsibilities to land and community. Together, Lauren and Carolyn explore how story is not just something we teach, but something we live — and how children's literature, particularly picture books by Indigenous authors, can open meaningful conversations about identity, belonging, and land.This conversation gently supports educators who may feel unsure or fearful about “getting it wrong,” offering practical, grounded ways to begin engaging in decolonizing practices with humility, reflection, and care. From using picture books as entry points, to rethinking land acknowledgements, to honouring children as knowledge holders, this episode offers reassurance that this work doesn't require perfection — only presence.This is a reflective and hopeful conversation for educators at any stage of their journey.Carolyn's WebsiteCarolyn's Journal Article

Nicola Longo MD, PhDProfessor and Vice Chair of Human Genetics,Allen and Charlotte Ginsburg Chair in Precision Genomic Medicine,Division of Clinical Genetics, Department of Human Genetics,University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), Los Angeles, CA, USAMark Roberts, MDProfessor and Consultant Neurologist,University of Manchester, Manchester, UKResearch Lead for Adult Metabolic Medicine at Salford Care Organisation, Manchester, UKDrs. Longo and Roberts discussed the current status of gene therapies in rare neuromuscular disorders in this eight-part podcast series. This is derived from the symposium that was presented at World Symposium 2025 in San Diego, California on February 4th through 7th, 2025, and is intended for healthcare professionals only.This podcast includes information about investigational compounds that do not yet have a regulatory approval or authorization for a specific indication. The safety and efficacy of the agents under investigation have not been established, and contents of this podcast shall not be used in any manner to directly or indirectly promote or sell the product for unapproved uses.The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed in this presentation belong solely to the author and are subject to change without notice. The contents of this presentation do not constitute an endorsement of any product or indication by Astellas.In this part, Dr. Roberts will discuss lysosomal disorders and the potential for gene therapies.Mark Roberts, MDI'm going to give an overview of what is gene therapy, emphasizing the current challenges and the development issues and needs that there will be as we try and enable gene therapy for our patients, particularly those with lysosomal storage disorders.I'm going to try and make a case for why lysosomal storage disorders are an extremely good group of conditions for the potential benefits of gene modifying therapies. Firstly, whilst we all recognize that these conditions are inherently individually rare, they're certainly severe. Collectively, with over 70 LSD disorders, 1 in 5,000 may be afflicted by these conditions ultimately in their life and can be detected, for example, by newborn screening programs.Secondly, there's certainly a significant clinical burden with these patients with the current standard of care, so a large unmet need exists. Existing enzyme replacement therapies have undoubtedly changed the natural history of many of these conditions, but there are limitations and often initial benefits and later deteriorations.Unfortunately, for most lysosomal storage disorders, it's only symptomatic treatments and indeed, care that is available for these patients with no specific treatment. Thirdly, these conditions are extremely well-characterized, monogenic singleton and problems of inborn errors of metabolism. We know the functional protein that is deficient in these conditions. Because of that, and knowing that these are critical for lysosomal function, and using preclinical models, we can model the potential benefits of gene therapies very well in a number of systems, including, of course, soon, muscle chip experiments as well.Finally, with these conditions, they may potentially be really useful targets whilst not perhaps curing the condition, at least ameliorating the phenotype, and enabling the addition of other treatments as well, potentially. I've noted, some of these therapies can be directly delivered to certain tissues, so muscle tissue, which is my main interest, but also, crucially, the central nervous system, which is very important when we consider ameliorated phenotypes, for example, treated by enzyme replacement therapy, but where the children who become the adults have significant learning disability as a major component to their problems.In the next part, Dr. Roberts will discuss vectors, different strategies, modes of administration, and targets in gene replacement therapies.

In this episode of the IDEAS+LEADERS Podcast, I'm joined by Suzanne Roberts, transformational speaker, facilitator, and founder of UnifyingSolutions. Suzanne has spent more than four decades helping leaders and organizations create sustainable, systemic change, and is the creator of Polarity System Design™ – a methodology that helps people reclaim their inner capacity, lead with clarity, and design cultures rooted in purpose and equity.We explore what it really means to lead from the inside out – how unresolved patterns, unprocessed experiences, and constant “busy-ness” shape the way we show up as leaders, and how we can reconnect with a deeper source of energy, purpose, and wholeness. Suzanne also shares insights from her upcoming book and documentary, It's Deeper Than That: Pathway to a Vibrant, Purposeful Life, and her new leadership program, The Great Reconnection.In this episode, we discuss:• What the self-renewing energy source within each of us really is – and how to access it• Why leaders feel “something is missing” even when life looks successful from the outside• How unresolved trauma and childhood experiences show up in leadership and decision-making• The role of somatic work and energy systems in healing and sustainable leadership• Signs that a team or organization is disconnected – and how to begin repairing trust and culture• Why reconnection is the key leadership skill for the future of work

According to reporting and court filings, Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly discussed a plan to discredit the now-infamous photograph showing Andrew with Virginia Roberts by manufacturing “evidence” that the image was fake. Maxwell's family had already circulated a staged photo meant to mimic the layout of her London townhouse bathroom in an attempt to claim that the original image couldn't have been taken there. Behind the scenes, Maxwell and Andrew allegedly explored additional ways to undermine the photo's authenticity, including commissioning experts to pick apart shadows, angles, and metadata in hopes of creating enough public doubt to neutralize its impact. The effort wasn't grounded in a definitive forensic flaw—it was an attempt to create a narrative that the photo was unreliable.The alleged plan went further than simply hiring experts. Reports indicated that Maxwell and Andrew hoped to construct an alternative explanation for the image's existence entirely—suggesting it could have been manipulated, misdated, or even fabricated by unknown actors. The strategy relied on fueling skepticism rather than proving a concrete hoax, banking on the idea that if the public believed the picture was questionable, Andrew could distance himself from Roberts' claims. Ultimately, these efforts fizzled because no credible forensic analysis ever supported the idea that the photograph was doctored. Instead, the campaign only drew more scrutiny to Andrew and Maxwell, reinforcing the perception that they were scrambling for any possible way to discredit evidence rather than confronting the substantive allegations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Views on America and Marxist Dogma: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts explains that Stalin admired American production and the Constitution, viewing the U.S. as a progressive capitalist state; however, Stalin remained a Marxist dogmatist who edited texts to fit his ideology, with Roberts ultimately characterizing Stalin as an intellectual whose worldview was limited by his fanatical commitment to Bolshevism. 1934
Rehabilitating Ivan the Terrible: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts reports that Stalin favored the narrative history of Robert Vipper, who rehabilitated Ivan the Terrible as a state-builder rather than a cruel tyrant; Stalin criticized Eisenstein's film sequel for portraying Ivan as weak, insisting Ivan's terror was a necessary defense of the state, a view justifying Stalin's own purges. 1945
Stalin's Early Education and Reading Habits: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts describes Stalin's Blizhnyaya dacha, where the dictator kept a massive library and died in 1953, detailing Stalin's youth as a pious, star seminary student who lost interest in the priesthood after discovering a radical bookshop, becoming a voracious reader of prohibited nationalist and socialist literature. 1939
Stalin's Early Education and Reading Habits: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts describes Stalin's Blizhnyaya dacha, where the dictator kept a massive library and died in 1953, detailing Stalin's youth as a pious, star seminary student who lost interest in the priesthood after discovering a radical bookshop, becoming a voracious reader of prohibited nationalist and socialist literature. 1921
Classifying the Dictator's Collection: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts reports that Stalin hired Lenin's former librarian to organize his growing collection, creating a handwritten classification scheme that prioritized Marxist thinkers, surprisingly ranking his rival Trotsky highly on this reading list; the Bolsheviks seized control of publishing to manage public thought, while Stalin adopted an ex libris stamp to identify his personal books. 1930
Personal Tragedy and the Dacha Library: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts recounts that following the suicide of his wife Nadia in 1932, Stalin became more isolated, moving his routine to the Blizhnyaya dacha, which became the "center of gravity" for his books eventually numbering around 25,000, suggesting that like Machiavelli, Stalin felt most among friends when surrounded by his library. 1934
Rediscovering the Scattered Library: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts explains that after 1956, Stalin's library was dispersed, leaving only about 5,500 identifiable books, some containing his pometki or markings; while Yuri Sharapov revealed the library in 1988, no "smoking gun" explains Stalin, with Roberts arguing the library proves Stalin was a serious intellectual who believed books changed the world. 1902
Historical Influences: Bismarck and Realpolitik: Colleague Geoffrey Roberts discusses how Stalin studied Bismarck as a fellow modernizer who executed a "revolution from above" to build a strong state, arguing that regarding Machiavelli, Stalin did not need The Prince to learn cynicism or power politics, as he had already learned those lessons effectively from Bolshevik mentors like Lenin and Trotsky. 1935
