Doug and Rich spoke about how people enter their creative zones and discussed the possibility of burnout as a result. Going back to your genius level is the best course of action if you want to avoid the burnout that comes with being a creative type. It's more difficult than you might imagine. It's challenging not just because you have to embrace who you are and not try to hide or tamp down your intrinsic skills and abilities, but also because doing so necessitates taking a brief break from your work to assess your personal well-being.

Abstract: Purpose: To evaluate the performance of a deep learning-based, fully automated, multi-class, macular fluid segmentation algorithm relative to expert annotations in a heterogeneous population of confirmed wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) subjects. Methods: Twenty-two swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) volumes of the macula from 22 from different individuals with wAMD were manually annotated by two expert graders. These results were compared using cross-validation (CV) to automated segmentations using a deep learning-based algorithm encoding spatial information about retinal tissue as an additional input to the network. The algorithm detects and delineates fluid regions in the OCT data, differentiating between intra- and sub-retinal fluid (IRF, SRF), as well as fluid resulting from in serous pigment epithelial detachments (PED). Standard metrics for fluid detection and quantification were used to evaluate performance. Results: The per slice receiver operating characteristic (ROC) area under the curves (AUCs) for each of these fluid types were 0.90, 0.94 and 0.94 for IRF, SRF and PED, respectively. Per volume results were 0.94 and 0.88 for IRF and PED (SRF being present in all cases). The correlation of fluid volume between the expert graders and the algorithm were 0.99 for IRF, 0.99 for SRF and 0.82 for PED. Conclusions: Automated, deep learning-based segmentation is able to accurately detect and quantify different macular fluid types in SS-OCT data on par with expert graders.

Journalist Dale Russakoff's new book, “The Prize: Who’s In Charge of America’s Schools,” investigates the state of public education in America’s underserved communities. In this conversation with NYPL’s Jessica Strand, Russakoff tells the story of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s $100 million quest to transform the debilitated school system of Newark, New Jersey — and spark educational change across the country.
The story of a lifetime only comes around once...Dale Russakoff spent more than three decades as a top news journalist, reporting for The Washington Post for more than 28 years.When Facebook co-founder, Mark Zuckerberg, announced a $100 million grant, teaming with then rock-start mayor, Cory Booker, to revolutionize the Newark schools and create a model for national education reform, she'd found a story worthy of her full attention and her first-ever book.Leaving her job, she spent four and a half years embedded in the lives, conversations and inner-most workings of what seemed, at first, to be positioned as a stunning transformational endeavor. What unfolded on the ground, though, was a profoundly different story. One that seemed straight out of a Shakespearian drama with a complex cast of players, each driven by their own personal and social agendas.At play wasn't just the lives of tens of thousands of kids, many living in desperate poverty and violence, but also a $1 billion budget and thousands of jobs.Russakoff tells this story in her riveting new book, The Prize: Who's in Charge of America's Schools? In this week's conversation, we dive into this tense and complex drama, played out on both the highest levels of government and business and the most basic level of human interaction, one teacher, one kid, one life at a time.We also explore how growing up in the deep south, the child of an "outlier" family who never bought into segregation, cultivated Russakoff's lens on people and equality. We dive into her career as a journalist and how that world is changing and being largely dismantled. We talk about the good and the bad and explore how the new golden age of podcasting just might end up saving the field.Even if you have zero interest in education, you will love this conversation. Because it's about a breathtaking human drama. It's about power and corruption. It's about the desire to do the right thing and how that gets almost perversely "bent" to the will of too many interests along the way.It's about the need for access to truth, to stories not only well-told but also vigorously researched and validated. It's about one woman's quest to shine the light, even when those who've given her the batteries for her flashlight end up unhappy with what that light ends up illuminating.
Spike and Lee discuss the Eagles loss to the Saints, and the season as a whole. Chris Johnson Jr. brings it with the final Warm It Up of the season.
Spike and Lee discuss whether they believed the Eagles would lose the game, Nick Foles' performance, Chip Kelly's decisions, and the defense's inability to get pressure. Is Chip Kelly the coach of the year? And Chris Johnson has a thrilling Warm It Up as usual.
Does Lee finally admit the Eagles are good? Does Spike finally admit Nick Foles is good? What vegetables will Chris Johnson serve at Christmas dinner?
Spike and Lee continue their weekly debate about whether or not the Eagles are "good," discuss Chip Kelly's coaching decisions, the performance of Nick Foles and just how bad Patrick Chung is. Chris Johnson warms it up with questions about quarterbacks, Chip's future, and baseball.
Spike and Lee talk about the Snow Bowl, the Eagles playoff prospects, if Kelly can win coach of the year, and Nick Foles. Chris Johnson Warms It Up with three questions that really nails Lee.
Spike and Lee talk about the Eagles second half issues, if maybe they're actually good, and preview the Lions game. They also try to figure out how many of their remaining four games they'll win. A very special Warm It Up Chris looks and Donovan McNabb and Johnny Football.
In the NFL, there are good teams, there are bad teams, and there is a big group in the middle. Have the Eagles elevated themselves to the bottom rung of the top level? Spike and Lee discuss, and Chris Johnson asks some pressing quarterback questions.
Spike and Lee discuss whether Spike is being unfair to Nick Foles, the improved play of Riley Cooper as well as the Eagles defense, and three questions from Chris Johnson in Warm It Up Chris.
Seven touchdown passes! Chip Kelly's back baby! Is Nick Foles the quarterback of the future? No, this is not the podcast we did after the Bucs game, but it sure seems like it.
Spike and Lee discuss how Michael Vick was ever a choice to start that game, Chip Kelly's questionable decision-making during the game, Matt Barkley's play, and Chris Johnson returns with his own segment. Oh, and maybe it's Tebow Time.
Nick Fails, get it! How about Nick FoLOLes? Spike and Lee talk about the Eagles loss to the Cowboys, discuss Michael Vick's state of mind, do three observations from Chris Johnson, and discuss Steve Eskin.

Spike and Lee Russakoff talk about the Eagles blowout of the Cowboys, and what it means for their playoff hopes.
Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.04.19.048926v1?rss=1 Authors: McCarron, M. E., Weinberg, R. L., Izzi, J. M., Queen, S. E., Misra, S. L., Russakoff, D. B., Oakley, J., Mankowski, J. Abstract: Purpose: To characterize corneal subbasal nerve plexus morphologic features using in vivo corneal confocal microscopy (IVCM) in normal and SIV-infected macaques and to implement automated assessments using novel deep learning-based methods customized for macaque studies. Methods: In vivo corneal confocal microscopy images were collected from both male and female age-matched specific-pathogen free rhesus and pigtailed macaques housed at the Johns Hopkins University breeding colony using the Heidelberg HRTIII with Rostock Corneal Module. We also obtained repeat IVCM images of 12 SIV-infected animals including pre-infection and 10 day post-SIV infection time-points. All IVCM images were analyzed using a novel deep convolutional neural network architecture developed specifically for macaque studies. Results: Deep learning-based segmentation of subbasal nerves in IVCM images from macaques demonstrated that corneal nerve fiber length (CNFL) and fractal dimension measurements did not differ between species, but pigtailed macaques had significantly higher baseline corneal nerve fiber tortuosity than rhesus macaques (P = 0.005). Neither sex nor age of macaques was associated with differences in any of the assessed corneal subbasal nerve parameters. In the SIV/macaque model of HIV, acute SIV infection induced significant decreases in both corneal nerve fiber length and fractal dimension (P= 0.01 and P= 0.008 respectively). Conclusions: The combination of IVCM and objective, robust, and rapid deep-learning analysis serves as a powerful noninvasive research and clinical tool to track sensory nerve damage, enabling early detection of neuropathy. Adapting the deep-learning analyses to human corneal nerve assessments will refine our ability to predict and monitor damage to small sensory nerve fibers in a number of clinical settings including HIV, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and chemotherapeutic neurotoxicity.
