Spitzer corta a Susan Potter en 27,000 cortes.Alas 5:15 horas del 16 de febrero del año 2015, Susan murió a los 87 años de una neumonía, pero no tendría un funeral común y mucho menos un sepelio. Durante los últimos 15 años de su vida, ella había hecho planes específicos para lo que quería que se hiciera con su cuerpo. Desde que escuchó en el año 2000 acerca del Proyecto Humano Visible, que serviría para enseñar de una manera virtual y excepcional la materia de anatomía a los estudiantes de medicina, ella no dudó en ofrecer su cuerpo para el proyecto. Así fue como contactó al Dr. Spitzer con quien estuvo planeando todo para el momento de su muerte. Susan conoció hasta el detalle más espeluznante de lo que pasaría con su cuerpo, pero estaba feliz de hacer un bien a la ciencia. Actualmente, se le ha dado el nombre de «El cadáver inmortal», ya que el Dr. Spitzer planea resucitarla en un cadáver virtual que hable como Siri a los estudiantes de medicina.Mientras leía la historia de Susan, inevitablemente mis pensamientos hacían figuras de un hombre que planeó la manera de morir y el propósito de su muerte. Desde el momento que supo que la perfecta creación que recién había creado estaba destinada a una inminente muerte, él se ofreció para morir en lugar de ellos. Durante años planeó en conjunto con su Padre cómo sucederían los hechos. Jesús conocía a detalle todo lo que sufriría, sabía de los latigazos, de las bofetadas, de la saliva de otro en su rostro y de esa cruz pesada. Sabía de la burlesca corona de espinas dañando sus sienes y a pesar de ello con gozo continuó con tan grande e inigualable proyecto para los humanos que cumplió su objetivo con la gloriosa resurrección.Alabemos el nombre de Jesús por donar su cuerpo para ti y para mí y para todos los humanos que decidan aceptar la salvación que trajo con su muerte.

While few doubt the opportunity represented by real-world evidence, some concerns remain about its validity compared to traditional forms of clinical evidence, particularly among regulators. To address these concerns, IQVIA Consumer Health's vice president of global research and development and real-world evidence services, Volker Spitzer, suggests that incorporating some elements of traditional trials, such as randomization, is a good way to persuade regulators that RWE can be used for consumer health innovation, for example in generating new claims or supporting Rx-to-OTC switch. Looking forward, Spitzer is excited about the ways in which digital health tools and artificial intelligence can be used to expand the scope of RWE as well as drive personalization for consumers.

Beginning his career as a professor in pharmaceutical sciences, he ascended to global positions encompassing R&D, innovation, licensing/M&A, and medical marketing at firms like Roche, DSM Nutritional Products, and Bayer. Since October 2017, Spitzer has been affiliated with IQVIA Consumer Health, serving as the vice president for global R&D and RWE Services. His purview primarily includes clinical research, RWE, virtual trials, and the burgeoning field of digital health. He has penned over 80 scientific publications, whitepapers and textbooks centered on science and innovation.

The potential for real world evidence (RWE) is huge, according to enthusiasts, but to the uninitiated it can seem like a complicated and forbidding subject. In this Over the Counter double episode, IQVIA Consumer Health's vice president of global research and development and real-world evidence services, Volker Spitzer, makes understanding real world evidence easy. We start with the basics, with what it is and what companies need to know about it, and what the key difference is with randomised control trials. Many companies are already using real world evidence, Volker notes, and he extracts some key lessons for companies interested in trying it out based on his extensive experience working with industry on such projects.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Mark 8:34—9:1 - Jesus summoned the crowd with His disciples and said to them, "Whoever wishes to come after Me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and that of the Gospel will save it. What profit is there for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life? What could one give in exchange for his life? Whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this faithless and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels." He also said to them, "Amen, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see that the Kingdom of God has come in power." 2, 3, 4) Father Robert Spitzer on his book: Fr. Spitzer's Universe: Exploring Life's Big Questions https://sophiainstitute.com/product/fr-spitzers-universe/

Have you ever wondered how data from the telescopes that peer into our universe ends up in the hands of the astronomers who interpret it? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome Robert Sparks, currently from the NSF's NOIRLab, but previously Fermi Lab and the Sloan Sky Survey. The National Optical InfraRed Astronomy Research Lab is responsible for operating the National Science Foundation's ground based, nighttime optical and near infrared astronomy for the United States. Robert describes their Community Science Data Center which ties all the data from all their telescopes together to make it available for astronomers around the world to use in their research. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, a project coming out of NOIRLab called 88 Constellations. Robert, who spearheaded the project, explains how the final, incredibly detailed image combined classic constellations and new, modern additions and covered the entire sky. One of his favorite parts of the project? Learning about the constellations in the southern hemisphere that doesn't get to see that often, like the Southern Cross. Chuck, Allen and Robert share some of their experiences stargazing down below, and yes, you know Chuck takes the opportunity to sing us a little Crosby, Stills and Nash! You'll also hear which constellation is the smallest in the southern hemisphere, Crux (the Southern Cross) or Delphinus. Then it's on to audience questions. Our first comes from Amirah, who asks, “Blue stars are hotter than red stars, so does that mean blue light bulbs are hotter than red light bulbs? Why would something's color matter about how hot something is?” The short answer: yes (pre-LED, that is!) Robert's long answer involves black body radiation, the electromagnetic spectrum, and red giant carbon stars. Rob shares stories from a career that bridges astronomy and particle physics, including how he got his hands on some original scintillator material from particle detectors at Fermi Lab. (Check out The LIUniverse on Patreon for a scintillating deep dive into…well, scintillation!) The next audience question, from Bryan, is particularly relevant to the discussion: How do astronomy and physics work together? In many, ways, as Robert and Chuck explain. Allen shares the story of the discovery of the element Helium, which was first discovered in the Sun by astronomers, hence its name. You'll also get to hear about Robert's 38-year-long career in improv comedy – and get to watch him (and his cat) act out scenes prompted by Chuck. Finally, we've got one last audience question from Jerry, who says, “I live really far away from the city and I don't have a telescope. What's the best way for me to do astronomy research?” Robert, who grew up in Iowa, tells Jerry about citizen science astronomy projects he can get involved like those at The Zooniverse. You'll hear about how, while working at a program there known as the Galaxy Zoo, a Dutch schoolteacher named Hanny Van Arkel discovered a weird light echo from a quasar that is now known as “Hanny's Voorwep” (Hanny's Object).   If you'd like to find out more about NOIRLab, the National Optical InfraRed Astronomy Research Lab, check out their website.

While many species in the world make music, humans have a unique musical ability. In some ways, music might even define what it means to be human. But how did we become so musical? And what is it about humans that sets our music apart from the music found in nature? Michael Spitzer is a professor of music at the University of Liverpool and the author of the book, The Musical Human: A History of Life on Earth, which explores mankind's ability to synthesize rhythm, melody, and culture throughout history and why music is fundamental to our humanity. Michael and Greg discuss when and how music became an intrinsic part of human life, the changing role of music from a participatory activity to its present-day passive consumption, and the implications of technological advancements in music creation.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Show Links:Recommended Resources:Wolfgang Amadeus MozartThe Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals by Charles DarwinRobin WilliamsGamelanFlorentine CamerataGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at University of LiverpoolProfessional Profile on XHis Work:The Musical Human: A History of Life on Earth Episode Quotes:Are we losing the value of music?43:32: Music should do much more than just relax you. It should make you think and make you feel more alive. The ubiquity means we, it says, as available now as water and air, and it's become cheapened. If you were born on Beethoven's day, you would be lucky to hear a symphony twice in your lifetime. And when you did, it was special because most of the time, you were in silence, and we've lost silence. So, it's swings and roundabouts. We have this fantastic availability all the time, everywhere, everything now, but it means we don't value it very much anymore.Why is music spiritual?21:01: Why is music spiritual? It's because you can't see it. Unlike vision, it is out there when you see an object. You have this external objectification of that source. But with music and sound, it's inside you, and ontology, or the experience of sound, that is, it's internal or inside your mind, and you can't see it. So, it's intrinsically related to spirituality. It's invisible; it's ineffable; it's interior; it's linked to contemplation, meditation, and prayer. So it makes sense that music evolved, side by side, hand in hand with spirituality.Music as the ultimate mimic of emotion and movement19:23: You can't separate the feeling from the ethology—the ethological dimension of the emotion. How do you get from there into music? Well, I hear music as a gesture. Even though you don't see anything, it's invisible. I mean, there may not even be any words. It could be a jazz improvisation or a string quartet. Music evokes a sense of emotion, of something virtual, in a virtual landscape, moving and gesturing. And also a sense of voice. There may not be a lyric, there may not be a human voice, but a violin or a guitar can definitely evoke a sense of voice. So you've got your voice, your gesture, your action, your movement, and all the ingredients of behavior and emotional behavior. And music is incredibly eloquent in communicating emotional behavior. In short, music is like a mimic, like a great impressionist.Is music really universal?24:55: I don't mean that music is universal. Our propensity and our capacity for music are universal. We're born into a culture, and then this is why every musical culture has different vocabularies, different scales, different instruments, and different vocal types.
