Podcasts about texas children's center

In this episode, hosts Marla Dalton, PE, CAE, and William Schaffner, MD, talk with Peter J. Hotez, MD, PhD, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. He shares insights from his influential career in vaccine science and diplomacy, from how the field has changed over time, how his experience as the father of an autistic daughter helped shape his career, and what we can all be doing to counter anti-science rhetoric and help build vaccine confidence.Show notesAn internationally recognized physician-scientist, Hotez is a professor at Baylor College of Medicine, co-director of the Texas Children's Center for Vaccine Development, and Texas Children's Hospital Endowed Chair of Tropical Pediatrics. For decades, he has led global efforts to develop new vaccines for neglected diseases around the world affecting hundreds of millions of people. In December of 2021, he led efforts at Texas Children's to develop a low-cost COVID-19vaccine for global health, resulting in emergency use authorization in India. He is also an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and is the prolific author of more than 650 publications, including the newest book, “The Deadly Rise of Anti-Science: A Scientist's Warning.” He frequently testifies before Congress and appears as a guest for national media outlets, always sporting his distinctive bowtie.

You've probably seen Dr. Peter Hotez on the news before, being interviewed, sited, or – sometimes – skewered. He's made a name for himself in the fight against anti-science and was a constant presence as a primetime source during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Hotez is the founding Dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine and Professor of Pediatrics and Molecular Virology & Microbiology at Baylor College of Medicine where he is also the Co-director of the Texas Children's Center for Vaccine Development and Texas Children's Hospital Endowed Chair of Tropical Pediatrics. He is also University Professor at Baylor University. His latest book is "The Deadly Rise of Anti-Science: A Scientists Warning."He joins The Linecast to talk about his run-in with Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.; his work to fight anti-science rhetoric; and the what the future holds for us in navigating, what often seems like, a post-truth world. You can find Dr. Hotez on X. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

From the frontlines of the fight against vaccine, and other scientific, misinformation, Peter Hotez, MD, PhD, founding dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine, codirector of the Texas Children's Center for Vaccine Development, and professor of pediatrics and molecular virology and microbiology at Baylor College of Medicine and the author of The Deadly Rise of Anti-Science: A Scientist's Warning (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2023), offers a framework for separating the politics from the science.

In this episode of the 5 Second Rule, hosts Kelly and Lerenza interview Dr. Peter Hotez, a vaccine scientist and autism parent, who shares his insights from the recent COVID-19 pandemic and provides strategies to better equip IPC programs for the future. His enlightened advice about anticipating and preparing for emerging infections, combined with his inspiring view of addressing vaccine skepticism, makes this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to protect their community from infectious diseases.

We spoke about his new book The New Climate War: The Fight to Take Back Our Planet.

Peter Hotez talks about the global impact and historical context of neglected tropical diseases. He also highlights important developments in mass drug administration and vaccine research and shares why he chose to publish the third edition of Forgotten People, Forgotten Diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic. Ashley's Biggest Takeaways Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) are chronic and debilitating conditions that disproportionately impact people in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).  Many of these diseases are parasitic, such as hookworm infection, schistosomiasis and chagas disease; however, in recent years, several non-parasitic infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses, as well as a few conditions that are not infections, including snake bite and scabies (an ectoparasitic infestation), have been added to the original NTD framework (established in the early 2000s).  What do most NTDs have in common? High prevalence. High mortality; low morbidity. Disabling. Interfere with people's ability to work productively.  Impact child development and/or the health of girls and women. Occur in a setting of poverty and actually cause poverty because of chronic and debilitating effects. Hotez and his colleagues recognized that there is a uniqueness to the NTDs ecosystem, and they began putting together a package of medicines that could be given on a yearly or twice per year basis, using a strategy called Mass Drug Administration (MDA). This involved the identification of medicines that were being used on an annual basis in vertical control programs and combining those medications in a package of interventions that costs about $0.50 per person per year. “Throw in an extra 50 cents per person and we could double or triple the impact of public health interventions,” he explained.   Emerging diseases, such as SARS-CoV-2, capture the attention of the public for obvious reasons. They pose an imminent threat to mankind. NTDs are not emerging infections, but they are ancient afflictions that have plagued humankind for centuries and, as a consequence, have had a huge impact on ancient and modern history. One of the reasons we have mainland China and Taiwan today may have been, in part, due to a parasitic infection, Schistosomiasis. Hotez and colleagues at the Texas Children's Center for Vaccine Development have developed a COVID-19 vaccine, based on simple technology, similar to what is used for the Hepatitis B vaccine. They hope to release the vaccine for emergency use in resource poor countries like India and Indonesia.  When asked about the timing of the publication of his book, the third edition of Forgotten People, Forgotten Diseases, Hotez acknowledged the difficulty of helping countries understand that NTDs have not gone away. COVID-19 is superimposed on top of them, and the pandemic has done a lot of damage in terms of NTD control. Although social disruption has interfered with the ability to deliver mass treatments, Hotez said that it has been gratifying to see that the USAID and their contractors have responded by putting out guidelines about how to deliver mass treatments with safe social distancing. “As a global society, we have to figure out how to walk and chew gum at the same time,” he said. “We've got to take care of COVID, but we really must not lose the momentum we've had for NTDs because the prevalence is starting to decline and we're really starting to make an impact.”

Davis is the bestselling author of Don't Know Much About® History and other books in the Don't Know Much About® series. He also wrote the acclaimed In the Shadow of Liberty. For 30 years, Kenneth C. Davis has proven that Americans don't hate history — just the dull version they slept through in class. Davis's approach is to refresh us on the subjects we should have learned in school. He does it by busting myths, setting the record straight, and making history human. If your school, library or learning community would like to speak with Kenneth C.

How do we prevent future pandemics? As COVID-19 has continued to rage across the globe, Dr. Peter J. Hotez has been working tirelessly to answer that question - in addition to leading efforts to develop a COVID-19 vaccine and explain crucial details about the current pandemic to the public. In his new book, Preventing the Next Pandemic: Vaccine Diplomacy in a Time of Anti-science , Dr. Hotez explains the biggest drivers behind the spread of disease across the globe, including climate change, war and conflict, extreme poverty, and widespread science denial. This week, he joins the show to talk about the book and the power of vaccine diplomacy in the 21st century. He discusses the commonalities in fighting both climate denial and vaccine denial and what he hopes for in a post-COVID-19 pandemic world.  Peter J. Hotez, MD, PhD, is a professor of pediatrics and molecular virology and microbiology. He is the founding dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, where he is also the co-director of the Texas Children's Center for Vaccine Development.

A pandemic by definition is a threat to global public health, and yet when it comes to production and distribution of vaccines, the world is reacting with national, not international, priorities in mind. Aside from the moral hazard of an approach based on every country for itself, there are compelling public health, economic, and political reasons for adopting a global view of the problem and solution. Join us as Peter J. Hotez, Kate O'Brien, and Muhammad Ali Pate sit down with Aaron David Miller to wrestle with the questions—how do we vaccinate the world and what are the risks and consequences if we don't? Watch the full event.SPEAKERSPeter J.

Peter Hotez MD Ph.D. is professor of pediatrics and molecular virology at Baylor College of Medicine, where he is also co-director of the Texas Children's Center for Vaccine Development and Endowed Chair in Tropical Pediatrics. He is a vaccine scientist who led the development of vaccines to prevent and treat neglected tropical diseases and coronavirus infections. Mike Sacopulos interviews Dr. Hotez on his recommendations as we emerge from the COVID-19 “Eye of the Storm,” a discussion on emerging variants and vaccine development status, and the critical situation of vaccine hesitancy among physicians and healthcare workers.  He also registers an alarm on the disparities of the vaccine rollout – both in vaccine hesitancy and vaccine unavailability in minority groups.  He goes on to describe the targeting of minority groups by anti-vaccine messaging and the role of social media (and other organizations) in that effort. Finally, Peter Hotez provides talking points for physician leaders on understanding their role during this pandemic, the importance of recognizing the enormous pressures that physicians and healthcare workers are facing – emotional, mental, and physical – and how physician executives and leaders can help.  https://jhupbooks.press.jhu.edu/title/preventing-next-pandemic hotez@bcm.edu @PeterHotez Learn more about the American Association for Physician Leadership at www.physicianleaders.org
