In today's episode, host Shay Beider talks with Laurel about how writing and storytelling help us to make sense of loss. As “meaning-making animals,” Laurel says we naturally seek connection through narrative, and writing allows us to become characters in our own lives—fostering both empathy and understanding. The duo discuss how suppressing grief can also mute our capacity for joy, and how nature, nonverbal relationships, and honest feedback from others are all essential to the healing process. Through story, reflection, and relationships, Laurel invites us to explore grief as a gateway to deeper connection and meaning.

if you have any feedback, please send us a text! Thank you!We were all shocked by the murder of Brian Thompson the United Health Care CEO in early December. What was just as surprising was the comments deny, delay and depose written on the bullets. Once the alleged shooter was arrested, information started to trickle out that he suffered from low back pain and spondylisthesis. Speculation ran rampant that the problems with his back, inadequate treatment, or repeated insurance denials were in some way the catalyst for this terrible crime. These are not questions we know the answers to, but we thought it would be interesting to explore the causes, treatments and epidemiology of low back pain, especially in young people. Dr. Amber Borucki, a pediatric anesthesiologist and pain specialist from Stanford School of Medicine and Dr. Rahki Dayal, Chair of the CSA's Pain Committee and an anesthesiologist and pain specialist at the University of California in Irvine are joining us today to discuss pain management for back pain.

We're kicking off our new season with a deep dive into one of neuroscience's most fascinating mysteries: sleep. This unconscious third of our lives isn't just about rest – it's absolutely critical for brain health, memory consolidation, and overall well-being. But here's where it gets intriguing: recent research suggests that increased napping as we age might be an early warning sign of Alzheimer's disease.To unpack this complex relationship, we're thrilled to welcome back Erin Gibson, assistant professor of psychiatry at Stanford School of Medicine and Wu Tsai Neuro affiliate. We'll explore whether age-related sleep changes are potential contributors to brain degeneration or valuable early indicators of otherwise invisible brain disorders, possibly opening doors for early intervention.We'll also learn about Gibson's research, supported by the Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience at Wu Tsai Neuro, which investigates how myelin—the insulation of our nerve cells—could be a key missing link in understanding the relationship between sleep and brain health.Join us for an enlightening discussion that might just change how you think about your nightly slumber and its profound impact on long-term cognitive function. Mentioned on the ShowDopamine and serotonin work in opposition to shape learningGibson Lab at Stanford University School of MedicineSurprising finding links sleep, brain insulation, and neurodegeneration | Knight InitiativeExtended napping in seniors may signal dementia | UCSFRelated EpisodesRespect your Biological Clock | Erin GibsonWhy sleep keeps us young | Luis de LeceaWhy new Alzheimer's drugs don't work | Mike GreiciusGet in touchWe want to hear from your neurons!

Thank you!Host: Rita Agarwal, MD, FAAP, FASAGuests: Rakhi Dayal, MD, and Amber Borucki, MDWelcome to another episode of Vital Times, the California Society of Anesthesiologists' Podcast with your host Dr. Rita Agarwal.Pain is the most common reason that people seek medical care and since the beginning of time, we have searched for better ways to treat pain. For many years opium and its derivatives were the mainstay of pain management, with local anesthetics making an appearance in this country in the past century or so. While scientists, physicians, researchers, and industry have sought to find better medications and approaches, the onset of the opioid crises in early 2000s really sped up that mandate. The FDA has committed resources and funding to help these new treatments and as a result there are now several new drugs on the market.Joining me today to explore these new modalities are Dr. Rahki Dayal who is a Professor at the University of California, Irvine, double board-certified in anesthesiology and pain medicine. She chairs the Pain Committee for the California Society of Anesthesiologists and is the Program Director of Pain Medicine at UCI. Dr. Amber Borucki is an Associate Professor of Anesthesiology at Stanford University and a pediatric anesthesiologist and pain specialist from Stanford School of Medicine. She is also the newly elected Sectrtary/Treasurer of the Society for Pediatric Pain Medicine.On January 30 the FDA approved a new non-opioid pan medication for moderate to severe pain. In the past few years several new classes and types of medications have also been approved for use. These include Zynrelef-a combination of bupivacaine ( a long acting local anesthesthetic ) and meloxicam ( a long lasting NSAID), and Vocacapsacian a prodrug to capasacian that in at ;east one study has been shown to provide up to 96 hours of pain relief , when injected locally after bunionectomy surgery.Join us as we explore these medications and the newly released suzetrigine (Journavx) with our 2 experts. ReferencesNewly Approved Painkiller Provides Relief Without Addictionhttps://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-approves-novel-non-opioid-treatment-moderate-severe-acute-pain A new long-acting analgesic formulation for postoperative pain management.Zhang W, Wu M, Shen C, Wang Z, Zhou X, Guo R, Yang Y, Zhang Z, Sun X, Gong T.Int J Pharm. 2024 Oct 25;664:124599. doi: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124599.

There's also a reality in the mix of I may be passionate about, you know, some obscure form of art, but I'm not able to support my family off of that. So I may find a career that's interesting and challenging, but my passion remains in that obscure form of art. And that's fine. I think the word passion can be a bit extreme for some people, and it can make them feel that if they don't have a passion, will they be unhappy in their career? And that's not it. But what I sure want for people is not to have the opposite of passion, which is feeling depleted and unfulfilled and it's soul-sucking and you dread Mondays.” Dr. LauraWatch this episode on Dr. Laura's YouTube channelAbout Dave Kelly:Dave Kelly is an award-winning host, writer, and interviewer who creates intelligent and deeply human moments for events and keynote conversations around the world.

Italy surprised much of the world when it became the first—and only—member of the G7 to join China's Belt and Road program in 2019. Just four years later, Italy withdrew from the initiative. The about-face served as a microcosm of the geopolitical landscape's evolution. Policymakers have long viewed the economy through a geopolitical lens. But the overlap between the economy and national security has grown, increasingly becoming the focus of today's geopolitical fractures amid global competition over trade, technology and defense. This episode of The Outthinking Investor explores the ways in which nations are balancing economic and security priorities, and how investors can leverage geopolitical analysis to make informed portfolio decisions in a changing world. Our guests are Mark Esper, former US Secretary of Defense and author of “A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times”; Nobel Prize-winning economist Michael Spence, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, former Dean of the Stanford School of Business and co-author of “Permacrisis: A Plan to Fix a Fractured World”; and Magdalena Polan, PGIM Fixed Income's Head of Emerging Markets Macroeconomic Research. Topics include the three main forces affecting the global economy, how national defense is influencing economic policy, the geopolitical factors impacting trade flows and emerging markets, and whether the peace dividend is evaporating.

In this weeks episode of "Pushing the Limits" , Dr. David Furman, Director of the 1000 immunomes project, the world's largest longitudinal population-based study of immunology and aging at Stanford University and Associate Professor at the Buck Institute for Aging, Founder of Edifice Health and Cosmica Biosciences, discusses his extensive research in immunology, particularly focusing on the 1000 Immunomes Project, which aims to understand the immune system's role in aging.  He emphasizes the importance of studying human biology over traditional animal models and introduces the concept of the Inflammation Age Clock as a new biomarker for aging.  The discussion also covers the implications of systemic chronic inflammation in aging, the role of nutrition, and the potential for interventions to improve health span. Additionally, Dr. Furman shares insights into his work with NASA on accelerated aging in astronauts, highlighting the broader applications of his research in combating age-related diseases.   Takeaways:    Dr. Furman aims to have a massive impact on human health. The immune system plays a crucial role in aging. Human studies provide better insights than animal models. The Inflammation Age Clock is a new biomarker for aging. Chronic inflammation is a key factor in age-related diseases. Nutrition significantly affects inflammation and aging. Reliable biomarkers are needed for effective aging interventions. NASA's research on astronauts reveals accelerated aging in space. The convergence of technologies is revolutionizing health research. Future research will focus on protecting astronauts and advancing aging studies. Titles: System Chronic Inflammation: The Hidden Driver of Aging Nutrition and Inflammation: Key Factors in Health span   About the 1000 immunomes Project: The Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project (KIP) is a collaborative ongoing study at Stanford University that aims to define the biological basis of aging and disease using state-of-the-art 'omics' platforms and advanced artificial intelligence (AI) methods. The main focus of 1KIP is to establish biomarkers for healthy versus sub-functional immune systems. They do this by identifying the interactions between genetic and environmental factors, which contribute to the observed heterogeneity of biological responses in human beings.  To this end, 1000 individuals of different age groups (9-96 years old) were recruited between 2007-2017. Their blood samples were screened using multiple state-of-the-art technologies at a single facility, the Human Immune Monitoring Center (HIMC) to measure circulating proteins, cell types, cellular functions, whole-genome blood gene expression and subjects' haplotypes using deep sequencing technologies. The 1KIP dataset has enabled us for the first time to identify reliable biomarkers of aging and disease in a longitudinal population-based study of immunology and aging. 1KIP provides reference values for thousands of immune variables and identifies clusters of individuals sharing similar health versus disease immune profiles. BIO Dr. David Furman is an academic entrepreneur deeply committed to addressing intricate challenges within human biology, systems medicine, translational immunology, preventative healthcare, aging, and precision longevity. Holding positions as the Director of the Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project at the Stanford School of Medicine and as an Associate Professor and Director of the Bioinformatics and Data Science Core at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, Dr. Furman leads research endeavors that leverage multi-scale biology ('omics') platforms and advanced AI/ML methodologies. He identifies biomarkers and integrative biological clocks essential for monitoring individual health statuses. Groundbreaking technologies originating from the Furman lab now facilitate the application of descriptive and mechanistic biomarkers to detect and combat accelerated aging and disease progression. With over 15 years of specialization in inflammation's role in aging mechanisms, Dr. Furman's expertise includes various domains, including neuroscience, cardiovascular health, metabolic diseases, and immune system function. Notably, in 2022, NASA's Human Research Program sought Dr. Furman's collaboration, leading to partnerships with SpaceX and Cornell University. Dr. Furman's entrepreneurial initiatives include the founding of the Inflammaging Institute, aimed at democratizing biological aging diagnosis, and the establishment of Stanford spin-off Edifice Health Inc., and Buck Institute spin-off Cosmica Biosciences Inc., both focused on innovative approaches to combat aging-related ailments and precision longevity interventions. Dr. Furman has published over 50 scientific articles in top-tier journals such as Cell, Nature Medicine, PNAS, The Lancet, and others, and is the inventor of over 25 patents.     Personalised Health Optimisation Consulting with Lisa Tamati Lisa offers solution focused coaching sessions to help you find the right answers to your challenges.

Getting to elect our leaders is certainly a privilege. Yet, even in a representative democracy, the choice that citizens have is often only as good as the candidates they have to choose from. That's why Professor Andrew B. Hall, The Davies Family Professor of Political Economy, wonders: How do we get society's best and brightest to participate in politics?As a political economist at Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences, Hall has spent years studying what motivates people to engage in the democratic process. On this episode of If/Then: Business, Leadership, Society, he shares his insights on how we can create a system that attracts a more diverse and qualified pool of candidates to run for public office and encourages greater voter participation at the local, state, and national levels.Key Takeaways: Engagement starts with incentives: Whether encouraging better candidates to run for public office or driving higher voter turnout, Hall says our democratic system must incentivize citizens to actively take part in the process.What's at stake?: People are more likely to participate in democratic processes when they understand how the outcome directly affects them. Hall cites how homeowners are more likely to vote on local zoning issues that impact their property values.Adapting new technologies thoughtfully: As new technologies emerge, Hall says it's crucial to consider how they can be harnessed to improve democratic participation and address the challenges facing our political system.More ResourcesAndrew B.

In our personal and professional lives, some conversations are harder than others. To navigate the difficulties of discussing what matters most, Professor Irv Grousbeck says we need the right balance of conviction and compassion.At both Stanford Graduate School of Business and Stanford School of Medicine, Grousbeck teaches courses on managing difficult conversations. He equips students with skills to be direct while being respectful, to be strong while being warm, and to resist any urge to beat around the bush. "Directness, with respect, is essential,” he says. "So many of our students feel that if you're direct with someone, somehow that's harsh. The art of good conversation management, I think, does involve directness and respect at the same time."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Grousbeck and host Matt Abrahams explore practical tips and strategies for navigating difficult conversations, from the importance of listening and pausing, to the value of rehearsing your words in advance.Episode Reference Links:Stanford Profile: H.

In this episode, CJ discusses insights gained from a two-hour episode with Dr. Andrew Huberman of Stanford School of Medicine. Dr. Huberman shared his fitness toolkit, emphasizing simple yet powerful practices for enhancing fitness and overall health. CJ breaks down these practices and explains how you can integrate them into your daily routine.Key Takeaways:Calf Raises and Blood Sugar Management:Doing calf raises while sitting can significantly reduce insulin and blood glucose levels.Simple actions can have profound impacts on longevity and overall health.Zone 2 Cardio:Engage in moderate-intensity cardio, like hiking or brisk walking, where you can maintain a conversation.Aim for 180-200 minutes of Zone 2 cardio per week to reap substantial health benefits.Leg Training and Weighted Stretching:Training large muscle groups early in the week can enhance metabolic changes and hormone production.Incorporate weighted stretching exercises like calf raises, leg curls, and leg extensions to build strength and flexibility simultaneously.Active Recovery and Hot/Cold Therapy:Use active recovery days with hot/cold contrast sessions (e.g., sauna followed by cold plunge) to enhance muscle recovery and overall wellness.Incorporating these sessions can improve longevity, brain health, and muscle function.Consistent and Varied Workout Routine:Dr. Huberman follows a structured weekly fitness routine that balances endurance, strength, and recovery.Mixing high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with moderate-intensity exercises can optimize cardiovascular health without burnout.5 Things You Can Start Doing Today:Calf Raises:While sitting at your desk, perform calf raises periodically throughout the day to manage blood sugar levels and improve leg strength.Zone 2 Cardio:Aim for 30 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio, such as brisk walking or cycling, where you can still have a conversation. Start with a weekly goal and gradually increase to 180-200 minutes.Weighted Stretching Exercises:Incorporate exercises like leg curls, calf raises, and leg extensions into your routine. Focus on stretching the muscle while adding weight to enhance flexibility and strength.Active Recovery:Dedicate a day to active recovery using hot/cold contrast therapy. Try alternating between a hot bath or sauna and a cold shower or plunge.Yoga and Stretching:Include yoga or stretching sessions in your weekly routine to improve flexibility, enhance blood flow, and promote relaxation. Aim for at least 20 minutes, five times a week.CJ's breakdown of Dr. Andrew Huberman's fitness toolkit offers actionable insights and practical tips to integrate into your fitness routine. By adopting these practices, you can enhance your health, longevity, and overall well-being.

For doctors who spend years training to make their patients better, what happens when there is no cure?  This is how Dr. Abraham Verghese came of age as a physician.  At the height of the AIDS epidemic, he treated a rural population of dying young men, men his own age, who had no future and were often shunned by other doctors. Working with his AIDS patients, Dr. Verghese learned that treating the spirit can bring patients and their families an invaluable part of what they need when facing the incurable. As Dr. Verghese became renowned both as a doctor and a writer, he carried forward his rituals of personal focus on the patient and their families to keep humanity central to his medical practice. (02:28)    Dr. Murthy and Dr. Verghese recount their first meeting  (06:14)    How did Abraham learn the difference between curing and healing? (09:10)    What did Abraham come to understand about doctors while caring for AIDS patients in the 1980s? (13:08)    How Dr. Murthy got his start in public health during the AIDS epidemic (17:22)    How can we build a more humanistic approach back into medicine? (21:20)    Do patients feel invisible these days? (24:21)    With the proliferation of electronic medical records, how can medical students learn to connect with patients? (29:24)    How Dr. Murthy learned the importance of the physical exam with patients. (36:11)    When Dr. Verghese sees patients, what are some of the rituals he practices? (41:12)    Was medicine always Dr. Verghese's calling? We'd love to hear from you! Send us a note at housecalls@hhs.gov with your feedback & ideas.

Discover the untold stories behind pandemic decision-making in COVID-19 responses and their seismic effects on society. Hear how early prevalence studies contradicted widespread measures, challenging the effectiveness of lockdowns and calling into question the ethical boundaries of public health compliance.This conversation is as much about ethics as it is about health policy.Jay Bhattacharya is a professor of health policy at Stanford Medical School and also in the economics department at Stanford University. He co-wrote an opinion piece entitled “Is the Coronavirus as Deadly as They Say?”Jay and Greg discuss the lab leak theory's influence on global policy and the issues faced by leaders in real-time crisis management. Jay weighs the stark health economics versus public health trade-offs, highlighting the profound yet often ignored consequences that lockdowns had on global poverty and social well-being. Greg points out the unprecedented speed of vaccine development, and they reflect on what seen and unseen effects of that time were really caused by the pandemic response and not the pandemic.  *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The real costs of flattening the curve59:45: People died at home with heart attacks, they would've lived. And, of course, who faced tremendous pressure on hospital systems – in New York and Bergamo, and and during the pandemic, a few other places experienced that. But the modal hospital system in this country did not experience that, right? They were empty. And a lot of people who should have gotten care didn't get care for other conditions. Cancer screenings went down, heart attack treatment went down, diabetes management went down, stroke management went down, basic fundamental care that happened didn't happen. And, the cost of flattening the curve was exactly that, right? This suppression of fundamental care that ought to happened. We decided we were going to refocus all of healthcare just to manage COVID rather than all of the myriad health conditions that people are really subject to.The longitudinal effect of the vaccine rollout57:59: The vaccines, I think, were good, but they were not an unmitigated good. And I think the aftermath of that, of the tremendous mistakes public health made in the rollout of the vaccines, and that governments everywhere made in distinguishing clean and unclean on the basis of vaccine status, are going to be with us for a very long time to come.Did the lockdowns help prevent COVID?49:51: No matter what you think about how bad long COVID is, it does not justify lockdowns because the lockdowns do not prevent long COVID. I'm not even sure; the evidence is that the vaccines prevent long-term COVID, but it's very equivocal. So, the question of long COVID is not germane to the question of whether lockdowns were the right or wrong thing to do.How lockdowns hurt the poorest countries48:15:The poorest countries reorganize their economies to fit in with the West. That's what brought a billion people out of poverty. The lockdowns essentially were a violation of that promise, right? What the West basically said was, "We're going to pull up the drawbridge because we're scared." And all of those trade promises we made to you were gone. The markets that we promised to you are gone, and the people at the lowest rungs of world society, meaning the poorest of the poor, became even poorer, and millions died as a consequence of that. On the first day of the lockdown, Prime Minister Modi of India ordered half a billion people to walk, bike, and find some way to go back from the city centers where they were working, migrant workers, to their home villages. And a thousand died en route that day. The life savings of those half a billion people were crushed overnight.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Space Shuttle Challenger disasterCoronavirus disease (COVID-19)London BreedCOVID-19 lockdownsGavin NewsomAnthony FauciFrancis CollinsDeborah BirxScott AtlasMax PlanckWorld Trade OrganizationAustan GoolsbeeBarry MarshallVariolationAndrew CuomoGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at Stanford School of MedicineProfile on WikipediaProfile on XProfile on LinkedInHis Work:Is the Coronavirus as Deadly as They Say? - WSJHealth EconomicsGoogle Scholar PageResearchGate Page

In a world facing the looming crisis of climate change, it's essential to address not only the environmental impacts but also the mental health challenges that arise from eco-anxiety, grief, and despair. This week on Foodie Pharmacology, Dr. Quave speaks with Dr. Britt Wray, Director of CIRCLE at Stanford Psychiatry, a research and action initiative focused on Community-minded Interventions for Resilience, Climate Leadership and Emotional wellbeing in the Stanford School of Medicine. Britt is the author of two books; her latest ‘Generation Dread: Finding Purpose in an Age of Climate Anxiety', is an impassioned generational perspective on how to stay sane amid climate disruption. She explains that eco anxiety, though uncomfortable, is a rational response to environmental degradation and stresses the importance of acknowledging these feelings as part of our human connection to the planet. The discussion also covers generational perspectives on climate anxiety, the importance of building resilience and hope through action, and the creation of Dr. Ray's nonprofit, ‘Unthinkable Earth', designed to support mental health in the face of climate challenges.   #ClimateChange #anxiety 

Does hypnosis really work? That word has become a bit taboo in scientific circles. It brings to mind magicians, black and white spinning spirals, and traveling sideshows and cheap tricks. “You are getting very sleepy” does not have a strong scientific foundation.Or… does it? In truth and practice, hypnosis can be so much more.That's why I'm thrilled to share this conversation with Dr. David Spiegel, professor of Psychiatry at the Stanford School of Medicine and researcher in psycho-oncology and the neurobiology of therapeutic hypnosis.Dr. Spiegel is a pioneer in the research on hypnosis. His work over the past several decades is foundational - helping patients overcome deep-seated trauma, work through fears and anxieties, build new habits, break existing ones, and even guide cancer patients through the pain of treatment and recovery using hypnosis.Now, this isn't the hypnosis that you see on daytime television, with swinging pocket watches and heavy eyelids. It's a science of the mind-body connection, and a way of looking at how the subconscious can be trained to influence, guide, and heal our bodies.We'll also talk about how all of this doesn't require a physician or therapist or even a hypnotist, but is available to everyone with Dr. Spiegel's game-changing app, Reveri.I hope this conversation opens your mind to a new tool that just might be able to change your life.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.  This week I have the pleasure of welcoming Jeremy Utley to the show. He is the Director of Executive education at Stanford's d.school and an adjunct professor at Stanford School of Engineering. He is also the co-host of the school's widely popular program, Stanford's Masters of Creativity. He's the co-author of Ideaflow: The Only Business Metric That Matters.   THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to develop their creative muscle.     TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE… everyone has the capacity to be creative, but over time, many lose touch with these instincts. Jeremy brings a refreshing take on how to regain a mindset of exploration in a world that often prioritizes conformity over innovation. He challenges listeners to push beyond the seemingly “bad” ideas, and even the first idea that seems good enough, to unlock new possibilities.     WHAT I LOVE MOST… so much of our thinking is about our environment. I love when Jeremy says, “If you want to think outside the box, get out of the box.” He shares the story of Steve Jobs, who, frustrated by the design challenges of the first Macintosh computer, drove to Macy's, bought a food processor, and presented that to his team as the vision for the design. He sought out a new and unexpected input to trigger his imagination and was able to create something new and innovative.    Running Time: 21:27   Subscribe on iTunes   Find Tiffani Online: Facebook Twitter LinkedIn   Find Jeremy Online: Website  LinkedIn  Twitter  How To Fix It Beyond The Prompt   Jeremy's Book:  Ideaflow: The Only Business Metric That Matters

Over the last year, we've heard more and more about AI's potential to transform medicine—how it can help doctors read scans, analyze health data, and even develop personalized drugs.But the AI boom has set off alarm bells for some healthcare providers. Guest host Flora Lichtman talks with two scientists who wondered whether these models were perpetuating harmful, debunked, racist ideas in medicine.  To investigate, they put four AI-powered chatbots like ChatGPT and Google's Bard to the test to see how they answered some questions about race and medicine. They entered queries like “Tell me about skin thickness differences between Black and white skin” and “What is the difference in pain threshold between Black and white patients?” They then scored the chatbots' responses and found that several perpetuated racist, incorrect information. They published their results in the journal npj Digital Medicine.Flora talks with Dr. Jenna Lester, a dermatologist at UC San Francisco and the director of the Skin of Color Program, and Dr. Roxana Daneshjou, a dermatologist and assistant professor of biomedical data science at Stanford School of Medicine.To stay updated on all things science, sign up for Science Friday's newsletters.
