Der er fuldt knald på stamcelleforskningen i disse år! Lige nu er tre forskergrupper i Japan, USA og vores broderland Sverige i fuld gang med at udvikle stamcellebehandlinger, der skal hjælpe Parkinsons-patienter. I dagens episode af Brainstorm dykker Nana og Anne Sophie derfor ned i, hvordan stamceller kan hjælpe på Parkinsons-patienters ryste-symptomer, og hvorfor behandlingen tager så pokkers lang tid at udvikle... Forskere har nemlig været i gang med at lave forskellige typer af celleterapi i flere år, men vi har stadig til gode at kunne blive behandlet med stamceller på hospitalet. Så, hvornår kommer behandlingen? Hvordan fungerer den? Og hvad er de største udfordringer på vejen mod stamceller? Det spørgsmål stiller værterne til Josefine Rågård Christiansen. Hun er nemlig en af de forskere, der har haft fingrene godt nede i de svenske forsøg. Brainstorm er støttet af Lundbeckfonden. Følg Brainstorm på Instagram.

Although it was hard because he didn't see conservationist that looked like him, his love still grew for mother nature. When he started school he actually was studying to be a veterinarian and then a field biology class changed his point of view on a career. I hope you enjoy Alex Troutman's story and continue to follow his journey. Al_Troutman (@n8ture_al)
Organizations across the globe are looking to organize, process, and unlock the value of the torrential amounts of data they generate and transform them into actionable and high-value business insights. Hence, hiring data scientists – highly skilled professional data science experts have become supercritical. Today, there is virtually no business function that cannot benefit from them. In fact, the Harvard Business Review has labeled data science as the “sexiest” career of the 21st century. However, no career is without its own challenges, and being a data scientist, despite its “sexiness” is no exception. Despite all the challenges, data scientists are the most in-demand professionals in the market. With the data world changing at a rapid pace, being a successful data scientist is not just about having the right technical skills but also about having a clear understanding of the business requirements, collaborating with different stakeholders, and convincing business executives to act upon the analysis provided. If you're a student or beginner facing challenges in the data science world and would like to learn more about overcoming them, then this podcast is for you as our guest Chester Isamay sits down with us to discuss challenges in the data science world.

If we surveyed your team and asked them if their leader shows a genuine interest in their personal development…what do you think they would say? Our research has shown that while most leaders do care about their employee's personal development, they often do not show it. The key to high-performance culture lies beyond having good intentions, and lies in how you show this genuine interest. In this episode we deviate again from our 1 on 1 format. Nate Leslie, Jeff Smith, and Janet Wood discuss the importance of showing genuine interest in people as a leader, and where we get it wrong. This is an audio recording of the SupportingLines Institute Human Experience Summit. We've broken up the 90 minute virtual summit into 3 parts to sprinkle amongst other episodes. This is Part 3 of 3. We hear real life stories from 3 participants that you can start using right now. Jeff Smith - Founder of the SupportingLines Institute used to lead a sales team at a global helicopter company where he helped increase sales from $800M to $1.6B. He leans into a large scale challenges in a big way. Janet Wood is a former global software executive responsible for the leadership development of over 8000 leaders at SAP. In semi-retirement she was the CEO of Science World in Vancouver, BC. Large scale leadership development initiatives do not intimidate Janet, and she learned a lot about herself along the way.

We here at IT Labs love people who are bees. What we mean by that is people with varied careers bring opportunities for cross-pollination. Cross-pollination of ideas and new ways of doing things. Like bee's these individuals are the backbone of innovation and industry leaps. They play an important part in the industry landscape, buzzing around doing their thing. Simultaneously, creating bridges for all kinds of concepts to travel and blend with the organization at the other end of that bridge. One of these bees is Fabricio F. Costa, Senior Product Developer & Strategy Executive at Accenture. His varied experience and passions create an interesting tech leadership mix. Key takeaways from the podcast are: • The importance and balancing of communication. Managing how that is exposed. Not too much, and not too little. • The emergence of data and its impact on the micro to the mega. The emerging tools will speed up the emergence of new insights • Never forget the importance of seeing businesses as a collection of human beings. The lens through which any collective human endeavor starts. Our Guest: Fabricio F.

This week, we present two more stories in our Human Nature series, this time about the nature of earning our stripes. Part 1: An opportunity to chase a snake in Borneo gives Kasia Majewski a chance to find one in the most unexpected place. Part 2: Burying bones in her backyard for her archeology studies puts Edith Gonzalez becomes an eccentric neighbor. Kasia Majewski is a science communicator, environmental biologist, herpetologist, entomologist and general lover of "ologies". Originally from Saskatoon, she has spent the last 6 years working and undertaking research in Vancouver, Japan, Wales, Malaysia, and most recently England, before returning to be with her family in Ottawa mid-pandemic. While she has many animal related stories from her time at Vancouver Aquarium, Science World, the JET Programme, and Manchester Museum, some of the ones that she recalls most fondly are from her masters research in Malaysian Borneo, where she studied the prey associated with Asian water monitor lizards. Dr. Edith Gonzalez is an historical anthropologist studying bioprospecting in the 18th-century, English-speaking, Caribbean. With four graduate degrees, she struggles to write anything shorter than the average peer-reviewed journal article. She has a deep love of LotR and finds logic so comforting, she is often referred to as "The Puerto-Rican Mr. Spock." As always, find photos and transcripts from our stories at storycollider.org.

Science world is now also warning they may have to shut its doors for good. Eric spoke with Janet Wood, President and CEO of Science World.
Practicing social distancing is now the new norm. We took it upon ourselves to exemplify this new dynamic. The first half of this episode takes place within steps of Science World in the area best known as False Creek in downtown Vancouver. Dale and Johnny highlighted this unique area with history and current prominence. Later, we recorded the second half of the show separately in our own homes and with Milton Ng via Zoom. Milton is a local writer, producer, filmmaker, and former chef back. We also managed to learn intricate details on the technological side of film. This episode will tickle the geek in all of us.
In this episode of Best of the WWEST, podcast host and WWEST manager Danniele will introduce you to the 7 women who are featured in WWEST's new photography project, "In Plain Sight." This project is a photojournalistic look at the lives and careers of women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields, where they are often overlooked. Women are underrepresented in these fields and are rarely seen in the media as STEM professionals. Deanna Flinn, of Free Admission Photography, has captured the aspects of these women's lives that are not often seen as congruent with a career in a STEM field. For this episode, these 7 featured women speak about family, community, advocacy, collaboration, and mentorship. Featured in the exhibition and in this episode are Lianna Mah, P.Eng.; Leigh Joseph (Stayawat), Dr. Sheryl Staub-French, P.Eng.; Edoye Porbeni, Dr. Tammara Soma, Humaira Ahmed, and Christin Wiedemann. Find their bios at WWEST's website. You can visit this exhibition at Science World in Vancouver, BC, from March 4th to April 17th, 2020.

Life is not happening to you, it is happening FOR you. Here's a quick list of things that Jordenelle Tsugawa is based on my show notes: A natural healer, soon-to-be herbalist, a mystical knowledgebase of divine love, a grateful positive friend to all, openhearted, open-minded tiny-home living forest-dwellin' absolutely awesome spiritual being to talk to. We talk all things Energy, Herbalism, Chakras, Grounding, Connection, Meditation, Visualization, Self Love and Growth. We cover growing up in small towns. growing as wiser adults, alcohol addictions, family traumas and a couple of personal stories about empathic moments. Jay opens it up with the chakras and she feeds my open mind with relatable ways of understanding or thinking about these difficult to explain concepts. We expand on the mental connection between the physical body and mind and we talk about being open and uncomfortable to learn about one another. Jay and I talk about self-love as adults and changing into our truest selves and how one must touch on trauma and generational experiences to do so. We talk about the gap that the internet and technology have provided younger generations. Jay tells us about Forest Bathing to cleanse baggage, anxiety, and depression and we share our ways of healing with nature. She recently moved into a TINY home and totally loves it! She shares how she actualizes her goals with planners, mantras, affirmations, and hard work to believe in herself. YOU ARE ENOUGH - we both agree! We break down words like "trigger" and "intuition" and agree that gossip is lame. We share a few experiences in our lives that have given us synchronicity - an empathic story together from a few years back, and we touch slightly on shrooms and microdosing. Soul is love fear is ego. "ok ego, i hear you. but where's my soul?" (epic soundbyte!) She tells me about her Full Moon Circle and she talks about quitting alcohol, balancing cravings and inspecting vices. We shed some light on living in such a beautiful place, with the beautiful people and the community around us, most certainly including the party connections and the glass table conversations. I love Jay's way of seeing this world. She is such an incredibly comforting light. She has a lot to teach. I see those of her personality, worldview, vibrant energy and intelligence as a very important role in all cultures and society. Her type keeps us connected to what's real and right here. The reminder of Spirit in a Science World. Someone who doesn't let us forget that our problems are sometimes not solved from terminology and concepts on top of reality out here, but may just only be healed from within. If your life ever leads you to bump into an open-hearted interaction with the healer type, the psychic type, the mystic, the empath... the person connected to their inner guidance and intuition... you might wanna be on the lookout for some ripples in your own life soon after ;) The light in me, sees the light in you!

Buckle in, ya'll. We had an epic conversation! I really appreciated this open and candid conversation with someone who I admire greatly, Dr. Robert Streb. He has over 30 years of experience under his belt and lots of wisdom to share! What I admire the most about Dr. Streb is his practically skeptical and transparent approach he takes to his own learning and his student's learning! I won't spill to much and keep it short. In this episode we cover hot topics surrounding manual therapy, pain science, and everything in between. If you are a practicing clinician (especially new grad) this is a must listen!!!! Please share with someone who you think would benefit from hearing this episode. As always, thanks for listening and if you find value in this show please leave us a review on iTunes!
#TeamCorker has been working hard behind the scenes for the last few months to put on our largest annual event. We bring together 400 people at Science World here in Vancouver to talk about the future of work and how we can disrupt the status quo. Matt and Steph sat down at the mic to reflect on this years event, to discuss the ways we decided to disrupt how events in the city are usually run, and to highlight some of the truth bombs dropped from the stage by our incredible speakers. We love being the ones to host this conversation, and this event is our way to give back to the HR community and beyond. We choose to open up the speaker applications for Disrupt HR YVR, allowing us to highlight some of the visible and invisible diversities that exist amongst the thought leaders of HR. As a result, our speakers weren’t chosen because of their title, or role, or their relationship to the Corker Collective, it was about selecting an idea that made our hearts beat faster. This year’s incredible line up included: 1. Urszula Lipsztajn | @urszulalipsztajn 2. Tru Wilson 3. Gavin Dew | @gavindew 4. Saleema Chaudhry 5. Kelsy Trigg + Darryl Stickel | @kelsytrigg 6. Kevin Rutherford | @clean_lantern 7. Emma Bradford | @emmagracebradford 8. Jodi Rai | @heyhumantis 9. Ed Blunderfield | @iamedwardmjb 10.

This episode features a conversation on The Passion of Animals with paleontologist and science communicator, Scott Sampson. Dr. Sampson is currently the President and CEO of Science World in Vancouver. Sampson is notable for his work on carnivorous theropod dinosaurs and his extensive research into the Late Cretaceous Period, particularly in Madagascar. Our host is Mary Evelyn Tucker, co-author of Journey of the Universe and professor at Yale University.In this conversation, Scott tells the compelling story of Earth’s fossil record. Touching on topics ranging from the ancient ecosystems of dinosaurs to the co-evolution of the human with other species, this interview highlights the importance of understanding mass extinctions. We hope you enjoy the Journey!--- What is our place in the 14-billion-year history of the universe?What roles do we play in Earth's history?How do we connect with the intricate web of life?This podcast series is part of a larger project called Journey of the Universe that invites us to reflect on these questions. It consists of a film, a book, a series of conversations, and online classes. The creators of the Journey project imagine that by knowing more about the universe and Earth we will also know more about ourselves. This may give us grounds for navigating our own journey in challenging times. How did we come to be part of this universe story? How do we belong and how can we participate in its future flourishing? This series is a gateway into exploring these questions. In these podcasts of the Journey of the Universe Conversations we will meet scientists and historians, environmentalists and teachers, gardeners and urban planners. All of them are reflecting on how we can be more fully alive in this context of participating in a universe story. Each podcast will have a section of the Journey of the Universe film narrated by Brian Thomas Swimme followed by a conversation hosted by Mary Evelyn Tucker.Connect deeply with these materials and more via the Journey of the Universe: A Story for Our Times Specialization, a series of Massive Online Open Courses hosted by Coursera and created by Yale.To receive up to date announcements on new podcasts and Journey community offerings, subscribe to our newsletter.
You might be a fan of Vancouver Councillor Michael Wiebe’s previous work with the Park Board, including the Jericho Lands Agreement, the Biodiversity Strategy, and warming shelters.Or maybe you prefer his first big hit, as co-owner of eight 1/2, the well-regarded Mt. Pleasant restaurant.You may even appreciate his 10 years as Park Board staff, or his debut in administrative management in the provincial government.But if you’re invested in Vancouver’s new era of power and politics, you may only want to hear one thing from this conversation with Wiebe — what Wiebe stands for. And, by extension, the Vancouver Green Party itself.And on that…will the Greens run out of time before they run out of process?We find out a little bit of everything in this fast-moving conversation, including Wiebe’s intriguing response to that last question. Regardless, one thing is clear — he wholeheartedly believes in the rationale behind his party’s deference to consensus-building as part (in place of?) decision-making.“If the process is done right, the implementation will follow.” Wiebe commits not just to bringing process back to politics, but to being part of that process. Even f that means being the political target in the room.Guest host Rob McDowell joins the fray, to try to figure out how Wiebe and the Greens expect to bring about major change — Rental100, a retrofitted Granville Bridge, a “blue way” creek connection from Science World to New Westminster — without being the decision-makers in the room.“We’re passing a lot. It’s just that our meetings take two or three times as long.” Read more »

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase, “Storytelling in science?” Does it conjure images of scientists gathered around a campfire taking turns telling stories? Probably not, but the role of storytelling in science is a relevant topic to explore. Bringing her passion for both the entertainment sector and science, Sara ElShafie joins the podcast to talk about storytelling in science. Sara works at the intersection of art and science, with one foot in academia/museums and the other in the entertainment industry. She is interested in all aspects of public engagement with science, especially through the museum and online platforms. Sara has broad science communication experience as a trainer, instructor, project developer, science writer, and public speaker. She created a workshop series, Science Through Story, and she has run workshops at venues such as the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, NASA Ames, and Science World in Vancouver. Sara also consults on science storytelling and public outreach strategy, including projects for major theme parks, museums, and scientific institutions. She recently organized a symposium, "Science Through Narrative: Engaging Broad Audiences," at a major biology conference with speakers from the scientific community as well as arts and entertainment industries. Sara received her Master's degree in Earth and Atmospheric Sciences from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln and she is currently working toward her Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. What You’ll Hear On This Episode of When Science Speaks [1:05] Mark introduces his guest, Sara ElShafie. [3:00] Sara talks about the intersection of her interests in entertainment and science. [5:50] What led Sara to her work with science outreach? [9:30] Advice from Sara for those who want to get engaged with science policy, advocacy, outreach, or communication. [13:20] How scientists and artists both work to distil complexity. [18:20] Why is storytelling so powerful? [23:00] Science communication isn't only about delivering the facts. [26:00] Should scientists stay out of politics? [30:50] Sara talks about the first mammal to go extinct due to climate change. [33:30] What are Sara’s professional goals? Connect with Sara ElShafie Sara's website Sara on Twitter Sara on LinkedIn Storytelling, science, and cutting through complexity Unless you are in front of an extremely niche group, you’ve got to find a way to cut through the complexity of your subject matter to get your audience engaged. One of the best examples of speakers who regularly cut through complexity are the professionals who give TED Talks. At a TED Talk, you will often find speakers who have specific expertise, but their audience doesn’t share that same specialized knowledge. TED Talk presenters have to navigate this disparity, not by dumbing down their content but by connecting their content to something almost everyone can find relevant. We need more scientists who are willing to put in the work necessary to help bridge the gap between their specialized field of study and the general public. Most people don’t think of science and storytelling as a natural pairing likely due to the common association of storytelling with fiction. With her work in science communication and her “Science Through Story” workshops, Sara ElShafie is hard at work on the front lines highlighting the value of storytelling in science. How to get involved with science policy, advocacy, and communication Now is the time to get involved, we’ve seen many reports both nationally and internationally that underscore the need for increased public awareness for topics like climate change. If you are ready to join in the effort to distil the complexity often associated with science communication and policy work, where is the best place to start? According to Sara ElShafie, you don’t need to go anywhere to get started with science policy, advocacy, or communication; you can start from where you are. Find a local or in-state conference on science communication, search for local workshops on topics that interest you. Don’t let your lack of proximity to Washington D.C. or your lack of formal training limit your ability to get engaged. Heed Sara's advice and jump in where you can, we need more people who are invested in this crucial topic. You can go further with Sara’s fascinating perspective by listening to her full conversation with Mark and by visiting her website.

As we get closer and closer to Halloween, the monsters get scarier and scarier! Okay, spiders are not technically monsters, but some people think they are. Don’t worry, I keep descriptions to a minimum so arachnophobes should be okay! This week we learn about some spider friends and some spider mysteries. I stole the above cartoon from here. I am sorry, Science World. A cape made from golden silk orbweaver silk: Further reading and listening: Blue spiders Varmints! Podcast scorpions episode Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I’m your host, Kate Shaw. It’s almost Halloween! I’m on the third bag of gummi spiders, although they’ve changed the flavor from last year so I only eat the orange and yellow ones. The purple and green ones are in the bucket to give out to unsuspecting children. Speaking of spiders…yes, I’m going there. I realize a lot of people are scared of spiders, but they’re beautiful, fascinating animals that are associated with Halloween. Don’t worry, I will try hard not to say anything that will set off anyone’s arachnophobia. Besides, there are some mysterious spiders out there that I think you’ll find really interesting. First off, you don’t have to worry about gigantic spiders like in the movies. Spiders have an exoskeleton like other arthropods, and if a spider got too big, some researchers think its exoskeleton would weigh so much the spider wouldn’t be able to move. Not only that, spiders have a respiratory system that isn’t nearly as efficient as that of most vertebrates, so giant spiders couldn’t exist because they wouldn’t be able to get enough oxygen to function. Specifically, some spiders have a tracheal system of breathing, like most insects and other arthropods also have. These are breathing tubes that allow air to pass through the exoskeleton and into the body, but it’s a passive process and spiders don’t actually breathe in and out. Other spiders have what are called book lungs. The book lung is made up of a stack of soft plates sort of like the pages of a book. Oxygen passes through the plates and is absorbed into the blood, which by the way is pale blue. This is also a passive process. In other words, that picture that’s forever popping up on facebook of the enormous spider on the side of someone’s house, it’s photoshopped. In fact, pretty much any photo you see of a gigantic spider or insect or other arthropod is either photoshopped or made to look bigger by forced perspective. Also, spiders with wings are photoshopped, because no spider has ever had wings, even fossil spiders all the way back to the dawn of spider history, over 300 million years ago. So that’s one less thing to worry about. Spiders live all over the world, everywhere except in the ocean and in Antarctica. The smallest spider known is .37 mm, so basically microscopic. It lives in Colombia and basically lives out its whole life not knowing most things about the world, like what whales are and how to operate a smart phone. On the other hand, the largest spider in the world is a tarantula called the goliath birdeater, and it probably also doesn’t know what whales are and how to use a smartphone. The goliath birdeater is the heaviest spider at a bit over 6 ounces, or 175 g, and has a legspan of 11inches, or 28 cm. Despite its name, it mostly eats insects but it will occasionally eat frogs, small rodents, small snakes, and worms. It lives in swampy areas in the rainforests of northeastern South America. The spider with the biggest legspan—yes, I know, some of you are freaking out but I can’t do an episode about spiders and not talk about the biggest spiders. The spider with the biggest legspan is the giant huntsman, which lives around cave entrances in Laos, a country in southeast Asia. And it’s not much bigger than the goliath birdeater, with a legspan of one foot, or 30 cm. All spiders produce silk but not all of them make webs.
Have you noticed that the recent surge of data scientists have a background in computer science? It's not a coincidence. These two domains are important in their own right but when merged together, they produce powerful results. We are thrilled to announce the release of episode 10 of our DataHack Radio podcast with none other than Professor Jeannette M. Wing! She has over 4 decades of experience in academia and the industry, and there is no one better to give a perspective on how computer science has evolved, and how it meshes with the data science world.
