Dr. James "Butch" Rosser was a pioneer in minimally invasive surgery in the 1990s. When he credited his surgical skills to video games, people dismissed him.

Send us a textOf course, saving forests is good for the animals that live there and the environment. But saving forests where indigenous people live can have another surprising benefit. It can be good for the health of all of the people who live throughout the region, researchers have found.That benefit seems to come not just because forests are healthier ecosystems in general, but because indigenous people are good at taking care of them, a new study showed.Burning forests can cause heart disease, lung disease, skin conditions, and kill hundreds of thousands of people a year, according to numerous estimates. Destroying forests spreads out insects that carry malaria, yellow fever, and other infections that sicken and kill people.Dr. Júlia Rodrigues Barreto of the Institute of Advanced Studies at the University of São Paulo in Brazil; Dr. Ana Filipa Palmeirim of the Federal University of Pará, Brazil and Université Libre de Bruxelles; and colleagues wanted to see if protection of indigenous land had an effect on health.They looked at 20 years of data from the Amazon, which reaches into 9 South American countries and is the most biodiverse region on the planet.As with everything involving biology, the picture is complicated. But if at least 45 percent of the forest cover was preserved in an indigenous territory – an area preserved for the people who originally lived there – nearby areas reported fewer diseases caused by fires, as well as vector-borne diseases such as malaria that are spread by insects.They reported their findings in the journal Communications Earth and Environment. In this episode of One World, One Health, listen as they discuss what they found and what it could mean for everyone on the planet.

What happens when artificial intelligence meets the everyday heroes of local government? That's the question driving my conversation with Justin Dennis, co-founder and COO of Urban SDK, a geospatial AI company helping more than 250 North American cities make faster, safer, and smarter decisions. Justin shares how a Smart Cities Challenge from the U.S. Department of Transportation inspired him to co-found Urban SDK in 2018, and why he believes the future of public safety depends on replacing manual data collection with real-time intelligence. From traffic fatalities to hurricane recovery, he explains how the company's HALO platform gives local leaders and emergency responders the insights they need to act before crises escalate. In a single platform, they can identify dangerous road zones, predict high-risk intersections, coordinate clean-up operations, and rebuild infrastructure based on data rather than guesswork. We also explore how AI is quietly reshaping government operations, from disaster management to traffic enforcement. Justin discusses the challenges of introducing cutting-edge technology into systems that still rely on spreadsheets and siloed workflows. Yet his optimism is clear. He believes governments are beginning to embrace AI not as a buzzword but as a practical tool to save time, resources, and lives. As one Florida community recently reported a 40 percent drop in traffic fatalities, the impact is already measurable. Urban SDK's story is about technology meeting public service with purpose. So as we enter another year of rapid AI progress, how can data-driven insights continue to empower local leaders to protect citizens and improve quality of life? And what could your city achieve if every decision were powered by real-time intelligence? Share your thoughts after the episode.

What really happens when you stand or sit up straight? More than you think. Posture affects your body and your mind in surprising ways. This episode begins with the science-backed benefits of tuning in to your posture. Source: https://www.medicaldaily.com/pulse/why-you-should-stand-straight-benefits-good-posture-345598 What's most likely to kill you—and what can you actually do about it? That's the urgent and practical question we explore with Dr. Tom Frieden, former Director of the CDC under President Obama and now CEO of Resolve to Save Lives.

He's also the author of The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own (https://amzn.to/4gqvMSN). Why do we treat pets, stuffed animals, and even our cars as if they were human? Anthropomorphism—projecting human qualities onto non-human things—happens across every culture on earth. But why do we do it? Is there an upside? Can it cause harm? My guest Justin Gregg, senior research associate with the Dolphin Communication Project and adjunct professor at St. Francis Xavier University, unpacks the fascinating psychology behind this universal human trait. He's also the author of Humanish: What Talking to Your Cat or Naming Your Car Reveals About the Uniquely Human Need to Humanize (https://amzn.to/4miASSg). And finally—why are we so easy to scam? Almost everyone has been tricked or swindled at some point - even the smartest among us has fallen for a clever con.

Cardiac incidents occur without much warning, if any, and time is of the essence to save a life. CPR is important, but a device called an AED - automated external defibrillator - can restart someone's heart quickly, before serious brain damage can set in. While many offices, retail outlets and apartment buildings have these devices, it's not always clear where they are, and that's where Cardiac Crusade comes in. They're rallying volunteers around the country, including here in Massachusetts, to help them map these devices, with hopes of eventually working with tech companies to make it easy for you to find them in times of need. Founder Greg Coon and Massachusetts Executive Director Tyler Mola join Nichole this week to tell their story and share details about their upcoming event in Southie.

Her story shows how purpose, resilience, and strategic thinking can turn tragedy into a mission to save lives and transform global health.
In this deeply moving conversation, Rabbi Hammer opens up about his daughter Gila—her vibrant spirit, her struggles following a traumatic assault, and the painful journey that led to her tragic passing. He shares stories of Gila's infectious joy, her kindness, and her larger-than-life presence, as well as the challenges she faced when navigating pain and despair. Through this heartfelt interview, Rabbi Hammer reflects on the importance of open dialogue about mental health and suicide prevention. He speaks about the founding of Gila's Way, an organization dedicated to raising awareness, educating communities, and providing support for families in crisis. This discussion is not only a tribute to Gila's memory but also a powerful call to action: to break the stigma, to listen more deeply, to validate the struggles of those around us, and to never ignore the signs of someone in pain.

How can AI improve our healthcare industry? In this episode, Dr Emma Yhnell speaks to health informaticist and author Dr Charlotte Blease about the role AI could play in the future of medicine, from making it more accessible to helping lighten the hours of a burnt-out workforce. Healthcare systems around the world are under mounting pressure. Healthcare professionals are amongst the most overworked, with half of all US doctors being burnt out and 42% of UK doctors feeling unable to cope with their weekly workload. Studies show that burnout is linked to increased rates of error and harm, which in the medical industry could mean the difference between catching a diagnosis in time or risking a patient's life. But Dr Charlotte Blease argues that this need not be the case. It is time to thoughtfully implement the new technologies of our age to revolutionize the healthcare industry. AI can help us to overhaul a system that is reaching capacity and has the potential to change lives, both for doctors and their patients. Dr Charlotte Blease is a health informaticist with a background in philosophy. She has published more than 150 peer-reviewed journals and books on healthcare and is an Associate Professor at the Participatory eHealth and Health Data Research Group at Uppsala University and Researcher at Digital Psychiatry, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School. Her latest book is Dr Bot: Why Doctors Can Fail and How AI Could Save Lives.
