Since its FDA approval on March 26, 2025, cabozantinib has emerged as the newest treatment option for neuroendocrine tumors (NET) patients—adding another valuable tool to the treatment toolbox. It's become a hot topic in support groups and forums, with many patients wondering what to expect. In this episode, Fox Chase Cancer Center medical oncologist Dr. Namrata (“Neena”) Vijayvergia answers the most frequently asked questions about cabozantinib. She explains how it works, how it differs from other therapies, what patients should know about dosing and side effects, and shares insights on a new clinical trial exploring the next generation of cabozantinib.TOP TEN QUESTIONS1. What is cabozantinib? Is it considered chemotherapy? 2. How does cabozantinib work? What do we mean by “targeted therapies”?3. Who is cabozantinib typically recommended for? When in someone's NET journey do you consider starting it?4. Why might a patient take cabozantinib instead of other treatment options?Is this a “last resort” treatment option? Does it limit future choices or “burn any bridges”?5. What are the most common side effects? Will I look like a cancer patient? Will my hair fall out? How might I feel while taking it—can most people keep working and doing their usual activities? Do common side effects tend to develop or get worse over time, or pretty much stay the same?6. What should patients watch out for or monitor while taking this medication?7. What should patients know about dosing? Is there a preferred starting dose or an “optimal” dose? If I tolerate a lower dose, should I go to a higher dose? 8. What happens if cabozantinib doesn't work for me? What other treatments might be available?9. I've heard about a drug called “Zanza,” the STELLAR-311 trial. What is it, and how does it fit into the current treatment landscape?10.

Key Points Gamification in medical education can deeply engage learners and improve clinical skills. Rapid Sequence alternates between game blocks, where learners act in clinical scenarios, and teaching blocks, where insights are shared. True expertise is about developing effective cognitive strategies, not just accumulating knowledge. Building mental models involves not just learning, but practicing decision-making in complex environments. The learning environment should foster psychological safety and encourage growth through reflection and feedback. REBEL Rundown Introduction Welcome back to Rebel MIND, the podcast where we sharpen the person behind the practitioner. MIND stands for Mastering Internal Negativity during Difficulty. This series emphasizes productivity, provider performance, and team optimization to ensure we are at our best during high-pressure situations. In this episode, we introduce an innovative teaching tool called Rapid Sequence, aimed at revolutionizing how clinicians learn critical care through gamified experiences. With host Dr. Mark Ramzy, we invite Drs. Sarah Crager, and Ryan Ernst, to explore what it takes to become an expert and how gamification can transform learning in the medical field. Cognitive Question What does it truly mean to be an expert in emergency and critical care medicine? What Is Rapid Sequence?? It’s a gamified clinical case simulation tool consisting of different “blocks” where you have individual learners that can work through cases in non-multiple choice format. You’re basically working on shifts, seeing multiple patients with your team.There’s a cast of characters, interruptions, distractions, and you enter orders just like you would as if you were on shift, and then the cases advance to see the outcome of your decisions, good or badFor more information check it out the Rapid Sequence website here. Use the following Promo Code: REBEL2026 at checkout page to receive a 20% off couponFigure 1: Screenshot from Rapid Sequence showing the initial dashboard Learning Must Be An Active Not Passive Process An important part of the process when acquiring new skills or information is making it an active processIt is not just passively listening, but actively participating, providing answers that aren’t multiple choice, and then responding to the outcomeThis provides the engagement, and increases both the comprehension and retainability of new conceptsWhen you then apply those same concepts in future times of questioning (or in Rapid Sequence's case “Blocks”) it helps expedite active recall through spaced repetition How This Applies to the Emergency Department or ICU? In high-stakes environments like the ED or ICU, clinicians must make fast, informed decisions often without complete data. Rapid Sequence provides a simulated space where clinicians can make mistakes without risk to real patients, receive feedback, and build the cognitive resilience needed for actual shifts, mirroring the chaotic nature of these departments. Immediate Action Steps for Your Next Shift **Embrace Gamified Learning**: Engage with or seek out platforms like Rapid Sequence that offer a practice ground for real-world medical scenarios.**Develop Mental Models**: Start by breaking down complex cases into mental models that you can refer back to during your shift. **Prioritize Feedback and Reflection**: After each shift, allocate time to reflect on decisions and seek peer feedback to refine your cognitive strategies.**Foster a Safe Learning Environment**: Encourage open discussions in your team where all members can express uncertainties and learn from one another. Conclusion Embracing innovative teaching methodologies such as gamification can lead to significant improvements in clinical education and practice. By integrating tools like Rapid Sequence in training, healthcare professionals can not only enhance their skills but also foster a culture of continuous learning and psychological safety. Clinical Bottom Line Effective medical education isn’t about rote memorization—it’s about developing the ability to think critically and adapt rapidly in ever-changing environments. Gamified tools offer an engaging path to achieve true expertise, ensuring clinicians are well-equipped to provide the best patient care possible.

Today's guest is one of the most influential figures in the history of California ocean sports and public safety. Karl ‘Buddy' Bohn spent four decades as a Los Angeles County Lifeguard, rising through the ranks from tower guard to Section Chief while helping shape one of the most respected ocean rescue organizations in the world. But Buddy's legacy extends far beyond lifeguarding. In 1982, alongside fellow lifeguard Gibby Gibson, they resurrected the Catalina Classic Paddleboard Race; a legendary event that had disappeared for more than twenty years. What began with just ten paddlers has become one of the most iconic prone paddleboard races on the planet. For decades, Buddy served as race director, mentor, historian, competitor, safety lead and ambassador for the sport. He helped preserve the traditions of paddleboarding while inspiring generations of watermen and waterwomen to challenge themselves across the 32-mile Catalina Channel crossing.' Whether discussing the evolution of lifeguarding, the rebirth of paddleboard racing, or “chasing opportunities” through his career and across his life, Buddy Bohn has been instrumental in Southern California waterman history; and far beyond. 0:00 – “Introducing Buddy Bohn & His Lifeguard Legacy” 4:45 – Growing Up in Southern California's Ocean Culture 10:20 – Becoming an Ocean Lifeguard 16:35 – The Catalina Classic: History & Prestige 23:10 – Training for One of the Toughest Paddle Races 30:05 – Mental Toughness, Preparation & Race Strategy 37:25 – Memorable Rescues & Lessons From the Water 44:50 – Leadership, Mentorship & Lifeguard Culture 52:15 – The Evolution of Paddleboarding & Ocean Sports 59:40 – Advice for the Next Generation of Watermen & Women 1:07:30 – Stories, Reflections & What the Ocean Has Taught Him 1:15:45 – Final Thoughts & Closing Remarks

Send us a textWhat does great IBD care look like when the system won't make it easy? We sit down with Dr. Adam Ehrlich, Section Chief of Gastroenterology at Temple Health and GI fellowship program director, to explore how he builds patient-centered care in an underserved setting—where insurance denials, missing records, and real-life logistics collide with complex disease.We talk about health literacy, trust, and the conversations that actually change outcomes. Adam explains how he frames risks and benefits with clarity, why the “risks of doing nothing” deserve equal airtime, and how he balances mode of therapy—IV, subcutaneous, or oral—against lifestyle, trauma history, pregnancy plans, and coverage rules. We dig into prison medicine's constraints, from medication access to policy barriers around scheduling, and the creative problem-solving required to keep patients safe and informed. He shares why being honest about uncertainty builds credibility, and how an early investment in patient education pays off with better monitoring and shared targets for remission.The episode also gets practical about personalization. We discuss drug levels with infliximab when severe colitis “loses” medication into the stool, when it's wise to de-escalate dosing, and how habits from flare days can persist after inflammation settles. Adam offers tools to retrain routines, navigate IBS overlap, and align care with quality of life goals like driving, work travel, and showing up at a kid's soccer game without anxiety. As a fellowship director, he reveals how he equips new gastroenterologists to handle today's broader therapy menu, think beyond flowcharts, and advocate through insurance barriers with persistence and purpose.If this conversation resonates, tap follow, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review.

Dr. Laura welcomes Dr. Esther Sternberg, M.D., a Professor, Research Director, Speaker, and Author of the books Well at Work, Healing Spaces, and The Balance Within, to the podcast to talk about wellness at work and how workplace environments impact employees. Dr. Sternberg shares her career journey from her start in medical family practice through to becoming the Research Director at the Andrew Weil Center of Integrative Medicine. She and Dr. Laura talk about what factors impact health and overall wellness at work and how these can be improved.Dr. Sternberg delves into the insights in her book Well at Work and explains the seven domains of integrative health as defined by the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine. Sleep, resilience, environment, movement, relationships, spirituality, and nutrition are the seven domains, and they include things like how quickly we bounce back from stress, how clean our air is, and access to nature. Dr. Laura and Dr. Sternberg examine how office design, environmental location, common spaces that encourage relationships, and even temperature all play a key role in our workplace health. The conversation sheds light on how work isn't simply a place to invest time into productivity, but can positively or negatively impact our overall lives, and how redefining workplaces is a vital part of future discussions. “... if you're feeling too stressed or too activated, you want to do something that will tone down that stress response so you can perform at peak... If you're too stressed, you freeze, you're unable to focus. You're unable to do the job, the task at hand. So what helps you to move that stress response from the extreme danger zone back to performing at peak is places where you can go offline a little bit, where you can effectively meditate even though you're not sitting there with crossed legs in a lotus position in a yoga studio, although having spaces where some people can do that is is also beneficial. But a space, for example, [like] the gardens. To just walk in the gardens, to just take your brain off the computer for a while and focus on the green, on the plants.” - Dr. Esther SternbergAbout Dr. Esther Sternberg, M.D.:Dr. Esther Sternberg is internationally recognized for her discoveries in the science of the mind-body interaction in illness and healing, and the role of place in wellbeing. She is a pioneer and major force in collaborative initiatives on mind-body-stress-wellness and environment interrelationships. A dynamic speaker, she engages her audience with passion for her subject and compassion as a physician. Through stories, she provides listeners with many take-home tips to help them cope with stress and thrive, and to create wellbeing spaces wherever they work or live. Dr. Sternberg's three popular, highly readable, informative, and scientifically based books are inspirations for lay persons and professionals alike, seeking answers to the complexities and 21st-century frontiers of stress, place, healing, and wellness. Her award-winning book, WELL at WORK: Creating Wellbeing in Any Workspace (Little, Brown Spark, 2023) was named a Top Ten Lifestyle Book for Fall 2023 by Publishers Weekly and received the OWL (Outstanding Works of Literature) Longlist Award.

This is a new experiment we're trying at the Rhodes Center Podcast. From time to time, going forward, instead of focusing on one expert and their latest research, Mark will take a deeper dive into one issue (or one question) that's been bothering him. Future episodes will examine the politics of immigration and the persistence of inequality. But the first episode in this new series will explore a topic especially near and dear to Mark: inflation. Specifically, the stories we tell about what causes inflation, how those stories affect our efforts to curb it, and who wins and loses depending on which stories our leaders believe. In the first half of this episode, Mark talks with economist Nicolò Fraccaroli about a book he and Mark wrote called “Inflation: A Guide for Users and Losers” (coming out in Spring 2025). In the second half, Mark talks with economist Claudia Sahm about the history of inflation, the role central banks play in it, and what's lost when we try to take politics and politicians out of the inflation debate. (One thing to note: both of these conversations were recorded before the election, but the ideas explored in these conversations are just as relevant now as ever.)Guests on this episode:Nicolò Fraccaroli is an economist at the World BankClaudia Sahm is Chief Economist for New Century Advisors and former Section Chief at the Federal Reserve's Board of GovernorsLearn more about the Watson Institute's other podcasts
Over the past three years, several seemingly frozen conflicts (Sudan, Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Gaza, Armenia/Azerbaijan, etc) have broke out into hot conflicts that are challenging the current international order. There is, however, one of the longest standing potential flashpoints that has not entered the fray, but is listed as one issue that could embroil the world. That is the unresolved issue of cross-strait relations between the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC), also known as the island of Taiwan. For more than seventy years, the question of who controls Taiwan has simmered just under the surface of geopolitical tensions, as the PRC continues to claim control of Taiwan, while recognizing that reunification is necessary (the juxtaposition here is insightful). The ROC continues to maintain that the political status of Taiwan can only be decided by the people of Taiwan, who currently support maintaining the status quo (having their own democracy, while not openly trying to claim full independence). In this episode we speak with Director General Charles Liao of the Taiwan Economic and Cultural Office in Boston. As the US and Taiwan do not maintain official relations, they do not maintain an embassy or series of consulates throughout the US, so these offices act as the representatives of the ROC in the US. Listen to gain insights into the current state of cross-strait relations and how the ROC views their relationship with the PRC. This becomes increasingly important as the PRC continues to ramp up military drills surrounding Taiwan, increasing the chances for a miscalculation or accident that can lead to all out war. In an age where military might has returned to the global stage as a way to resolve conflicts, the question of Taiwan and how to encourage a diplomatic resolution remains one of the most important of the day.As mentioned in the podcast introduction, if you are interested in learning more about what foreign policy might look like as the United States enters a second term for President Trump, please watch our conversation with Dan Negrea of the Atlantic Council and co-Author of "We Win, They Lose: Republican Foreign Policy and the New Cold War".
