“There's no such thing as a healthy tan.” While we may be coming around on that idea, are we getting distracted by potential reasons not to use sunscreen? Are there ingredients in sunscreens that are toxic to us, or to the ocean's ecosystem? What about those spray sunscreens? Dr. Jenna Kelsey, UConn Health dermatologist, joins to help weigh the risks and benefits of these factors against the carcinogenic properties of sun exposure.

DermaSensor has developed the first FDA-cleared, AI-powered skin cancer detection device specifically designed for primary care physicians. After spending $27 million on R&D over eight years and conducting 15 clinical studies, the company received FDA clearance in January 2024. Using elastic scattering spectroscopy, the device analyzes cellular and subcellular structures in skin tissue—the same characteristics pathologists examine under microscopes—to provide objective skin cancer risk assessments in under 30 seconds. In this episode, CEO Cody Simmons shares the journey from Boston University research lab to commercial deployment across hundreds of medical practices. Topics Discussed: DermaSensor's eight-year development journey from 30-pound research devices to handheld commercial products The FDA clearance process requiring five pre-submission meetings and over 10,000 pages of documentation Strategic decision to target primary care physicians rather than dermatologists based on competitive intelligence Clinical validation showing device accuracy matches in-person dermatologist assessments Commercial launch strategy achieving coverage from major media outlets without a major PR firm Rapid adoption by hundreds of private practices within the first year post-clearance GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Learn from competitive failures before choosing your market: Cody observed companies spending "literally hundreds of millions of dollars" targeting dermatologists with similar devices, only to see them "commercially immediately fizzled out" within 2-4 years. Dermatologists, being experts, were confident in their existing processes and questioned why they needed additional tools. This competitive intelligence led DermaSensor to target primary care physicians who welcomed objective second opinions. B2B founders should study why similar solutions failed in adjacent markets and identify underserved segments where their value proposition resonates more strongly. Align your commercial strategy with regulatory requirements years in advance: Cody emphasized that you must "align your plan like your commercial plan with your study" and your FDA indication for use, determining "who's actually approved to use the device for what purpose." This planning must happen years before approval since clinical studies are designed around the intended commercial application. B2B founders in regulated industries should work backwards from their go-to-market strategy when designing regulatory pathways, ensuring clinical evidence supports their target market and use cases. FDA clearance itself can be your biggest PR moment: DermaSensor achieved coverage on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, Forbes, Reuters, and Time Magazine's Best Inventions list primarily because "the FDA clearance itself was so big" for a first-in-class device addressing "the most common cancer." They worked with only an independent PR consultant, not a major firm. B2B founders should recognize that major regulatory milestones, especially for novel technologies, inherently generate media interest and plan their launch communications accordingly. Prioritize speed and simplicity when displacing manual processes: The device works in "less than 30 seconds" from pickup to result, addressing primary care physicians who previously had to rely on visual assessment with minimal dermatology training (only "two to four hours of training in medical school"). The combination of speed, objectivity, and ease of use made adoption attractive to non-specialists. B2B founders should design solutions that are dramatically faster and more accurate than existing manual processes, especially when targeting users who lack specialized expertise. Private practices adopt faster than health systems but both are essential: Cody noted that "private practices, because they make decisions so quickly" with "one or two doctors that run the practice" were able to rapidly adopt the technology. However, health systems provide validation and scale. The company focused on building "that whole ecosystem" where "health systems using a private practice, using it. Dermatologists are aware of it." B2B founders should sequence their go-to-market to capture quick wins from agile smaller customers while simultaneously pursuing enterprise accounts for long-term growth and market credibility.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co   //   Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce key developments following the company's annual and special meeting of shareholders, held in July. Bokhari reported that shareholders voted overwhelmingly in favor of all resolutions, including the election of all eight director nominees—two of whom are new to the board. Among the newly elected directors is The Honorable Cathy McMorris Rodgers, a veteran public servant with more than three decades of leadership experience. McMorris Rodgers represented Washington's 5th Congressional District from 2004 to 2025 and previously served as Republican Leader in the Washington State House of Representatives—the first woman to hold that role. Bokhari described her as a people-first, mission-driven leader whose policy acumen and bipartisan leadership will bring tremendous value to Medicus Pharma during its next phase of growth. Also joining the board is Ajay Raju, a well-known attorney, venture capitalist, and entrepreneur. Raju is Chairman and CEO of Raju LLP, Managing Partner of 215 Capital, and Co-founder of Avstera Therapeutics, with leadership roles across 16 portfolio companies. His legal, financial, and strategic expertise further strengthens the company's board as it advances clinical development and business expansion. In addition to governance updates, Bokhari revealed that Medicus has submitted a comprehensive briefing package to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requesting a Type C meeting. The company is seeking formal FDA feedback on its D-MNA (Dermal Methylnaltrexone) development program aimed at treating Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) of the skin. The proposed Phase 2 clinical trial (SKNJCT-003) will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study enrolling up to 60 participants. Subjects will be randomly assigned in equal numbers to receive either a Placebo, low-dose D-MNA, or high-dose D-MNA. The trial is designed to evaluate efficacy and safety outcomes, with the goal of accelerating the development of a novel topical therapy for one of the most common forms of skin cancer. With a strengthened leadership team and a clear regulatory strategy, Medicus Pharma is positioning itself for a pivotal year ahead in both corporate development and clinical advancement. #proactiveinvestors #nasdaq #mdcx #tsxv #mdcx #pharma #Biotech #CancerTreatment #ClinicalTrials #FDAApproval #SkinCancer #HealthcareInnovation #Investing #MedicalResearch #SkinCancer #BasalCellCarcinoma #BiotechNews #CancerResearch #UAEHealth #NonInvasiveTherapy #Doxorubicin #ClinicalTrials #HealthcareInnovation

Skin cancer is on the rise in Canada. The vast majority of cases are connected to sun exposure. One of the best protections – staying out of the sun or using sunscreen.

Dr. Jack Stockwell (www.forbiddendoctor.com & www.jackstockwell.com | Phone: 866-867-5070), a GAPS Practitioner and NUCCA Chiropractor, discusses the biggest concerns for health and medical news from a natural position over a Western Medicine approach. He starts today's episode with the idea that the sun does not cause skin cancer, rather exposes the weaknesses in your skin due to poor dietary choices that can lead different growths on the skin, and why he opposes sunblock as it pertains to blocking a natural process exposure to the sun and stopping vitamin D absorption as well as other helpful nutrients we can get from the sun — not to mention the harmful chemicals in most sunscreens. Next up, the myth that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and at what time you should start eating during your day, questioning when food is not food, the viral recipe video that left Dr. Jack feeling dumbfounded, and who/what the forbidden doctor really is. Then, Dr. Jack discusses an increase of young asthma sufferers, that more children are being diagnosed with ADHD or autism, a fight against breakfast cereals, and why “eating healthy” isn't always healthy eating. To round out the conversation, Doug and Dr. Jack break down what makes us feel stressed, what stress does to our bodies, and how to fight stress and keep a calmer mind. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Johann Ilgenfritz's life changed in 2011 when he had a heart attack and six months later was diagnosed with cancer. After unsuccessful Radio Therapy he researched for a cure, soon realizing that that there was no central point for reliable online health information. He decided to create a platform and launched UK Health Radio, while still fighting cancer. After overcoming cancer through nutritional and lifestyle changes, he earned the title "The Curator of Health Expertise" from the press. His guiding principle is simple: "Good health is a choice." Initially, he saw cancer as the root of his illness but later realized it was merely a symptom of an already unwell body. He understood that by addressing the underlying cause, he could transform the outcome. With this vision, UK Health Radio (https://ukhealthradio.com/) has embraced a clear mission: to inspire and empower people to take responsibility for their own health. This does not mean taking your health into your own hands, but to be part of the process of attaining and/or keeping your health freedom. It is all about being informed, being empowered, taking action and being healthy! UK Health Radio delivers information through 41 shows airing 24/7, reaching over 1.5 million very dedicated listeners and is now also available on 11 podcast platforms worldwide. In February of 2024, Johann created The Alkaline Collective Mastermind (https://alkaline-collective.com/), a dedicated online community for those battling cancer, aiming to prevent it, or striving to stop it's recurrence. Designed for individuals who are committed to hold themselves accountable, and seek a comprehensive toolbox of resources.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Deborah Lang discuss the rise of skin cancer, particularly melanoma, and its causes. Dr. Lang explains that skin cancers are derived from different skin cells: basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, both linked to UV exposure, and melanoma, which can be UV-independent and linked to genetic susceptibility. Dr. Lang emphasizes the importance of early detection and personalized medicine, noting that melanoma can metastasize early. She also highlights the role of genetic mutations in cancer development and the impact of funding cuts on cancer research.    Key Takeaways: There are three major types of skin cancer. About 80% are basal cell carcinomas.  Because we are living longer, we have an increased chance of cancer. However, other reasons for increased skin cancer include increased UV exposure and tanning beds.  We are all born with moles, but if you notice a change or have a lot (such as over 100), it is worth getting them checked out.  Between 5 and 25 minutes of sun exposure per day is enough for your vitamin D production (less for lighter skin). However, sunlight has other benefits for your health and circadian rhythm.    "Melanomas are derived from a different type of cell - from cells that produce pigment called melanocytes. While this type of cancer is much rarer than basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, it is the most lethal type of skin cancer." —  Dr. Deborah Lang   Episode References:  NIH: https://www.nih.gov/  American Cancer Society: https://www.cancer.gov/  Leo Foundation: https://leo-foundation.org/en/    Connect with Dr. Deborah Lang: Professional Bio: https://profiles.bu.edu/Deborah.Lang  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-lang-691158208/  ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Deborah-Lang-38651370    Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Navigating the intricate landscape of medical technology often involves overcoming substantial challenges, not just in device innovation but also in ensuring successful integration into healthcare systems. One significant hurdle is the adoption of new technologies by general practitioners, who require tools that are both effective and easy to integrate into their existing workflows without the complexities of specialist equipment. In this week's episode, sponsored by Physician Growth Accelerator, we are joined by Cody Simmons, co-founder and CEO of DermaSensor. Cody discusses DermaSensor, a revolutionary device that simplifies skin cancer detection, enabling general practitioners to diagnose with the accuracy of dermatologists. We delve into the story of DermaSensor, from its initial conception to achieving FDA clearance and the challenges faced in bringing this innovative technology to market. What we discuss in the episode: The development of DermaSensor and its impact on simplifying skin cancer detection for non-specialists. The barriers to technology adoption in healthcare, particularly issues around reimbursement and system integration. Strategies employed by DermaSensor to navigate regulatory hurdles and market challenges. Real-world benefits of the device in improving diagnostic accuracy and reducing healthcare inefficiencies.
