In this episode, Dr. Luca Pellegrini is interviewed by Olivia Hillier, with narration by Andrew Cao, from the University of Ottawa. Dr. Pellegrini is a new professor in the department of Biochemistry, Microbiology, and Immunology and is an expert on mitochondria and  inter-organelle contacts. He joins us to discuss his team's most recent paper, published in Cell Reports (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2021.108873). This publication describes his team's discovery of the “wrappER”, a microscopic superhero in your body that plays a vital role in keeping you in top shape. Dr. Pellegrini takes us through the history of inter-organelle contacts research, the intriguing results detailed in his paper, and the broader implications of his findings to human health.  Learn more: https://www.pellegrinilab.com/ 0:27 | Podcast team introduction0:42 | Meet the wrappER, the cloak that safeguards your metabolic health.2:02 | Meet Dr. Luca Pellegrini, the founder of the wrappER.3:00 | How did Dr. Pellegrini come to study the wrappER?3:46 | Why does Dr. Pellegrini like history so much?4:41 | When did researchers start to consider how contacts between organelles may be important?5:58 | Diseases related to defects in inter-organelle contacts.6:48 | What you need to know about  Anastasia et al., 2021: the paper that discovered and defined the wrappER.8:12 | The wrappeR's structure is like a burrito.8:43 | Are all mitochondria wrapped by the wrappER?9:01 | The wrappER is not limited to liver cells.9:38 | What else can the wrappER wrap?10:12 | Dynamics of the wrappER and mitochondria.11:32 | How long did it take to make these discoveries of the wrappER?11:44 | The team behind the discovery.12:40 | What the wrappER can teach us about how our bodies regulate fat.13:18 | The wrappER and treatments for fat-related diseases and disorders.13:55 | Dr. Pellegrini's plans as a new profressor and principal investigator at the University of Ottawa.14:22 | Wrapping up: thank you to Dr. PellegriniPodcast by Andrew Cao (Narrator and Post-Production), Olivia Hillier (Interviewer), Olivia Sommers (Producer), & Anna Wang (Writer-Editor).Music:“The Launch” by Chronox (https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Chronox_2/)  This song can be found on the Free Music Archive (https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Chronox/Voyager/Chronox_-_01_-_The_Launch/)“Nocturnal (BGM)” by LEMMiNO (https://www.lemmi.no/)  “Thannoid” by Blue Dot Sessions (https://www.sessions.blue/)   “Are We Loose Yet” by Blue Dot Sessions (https://www.sessions.blue/)   “Here” by Hyson (https://iamhyson.bandcamp.com/)

The Lonely Palette is currently the podcast-in-residence at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and we're partnering up to bring the museum to you during its closure due to Covid-19 by spotlighting both the rock star and the lesser-known objects from the museum's permanent collection. So relax into your PJs, put your feet up, and let's #MuseumFromHome together. This week: it isn't 17th century Dutch art if we're not going so deep into Rembrandt's soul and so close to the meticulous details of his virtuosic portraiture that we make the guards nervous.

Medicaid is one of the largest social welfare programs in the United States. With over 70 million people enrolled, it covers 20 percent of the US population. Though the program is federal, it’s implemented by the state and some states offer generous benefits while others do not. Professor Jamila Michener argues these disparities are actually having an effect on democratic citizenship. Her research shows that when Medicaid expands, more people vote, and when it contracts (or there’s a narrower scope of benefits) then people are less likely to vote. Jamila Michener is an assistant professor at Cornell University. Her book is Fragmented Democracy: Medicaid, Federalism, and Unequal Politics (Cambridge University Press, 2018)   Read the episode transcript Music: Vittoro and Thannoid by Blue Dot Sessions / Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution  

How does a potential drug discovered in the lab ultimately end up in people? We tackle this question in the context of exciting gene-modifying therapies called antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs). In this episode, we speak with Dr. Tim Miller to break down the science behind ASOs and learn more about his work in finding a cure for a genetic form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This episode was written and produced by Nancy Cai, Devika Nair, and Arja Ray.

MACEO HERNANDEZ is a professional Taiko drummer whose passion for the ancient Japanese form of percussion began in the 7th grade. Despite having no rhythm or musical experience, young Maceo was determined to play Taiko, leading him on a life-changing journey to Japan and inspiring a documentary film. (51:11)       EPISODE NOTES: MACEO HERNANDEZ was in the 7th grade when he experienced an epiphany while listening to a Japanese Taiko group performing at a family friend’s wedding. MACEO: “You could really feel the impact and the vibration of these Taiko drums. And it just blew me away. I went up to them and helped them load these drums into their car. I just wanted to touch and feel these drums. I knew then I wanted to play these drums, even though I had no rhythm. I never drummed in my life. I never played an instrument. But the Taiko drum drew me to want to play it, even though I didn’t know anything about it.” Having a Mexican-American teenager dedicate himself to the ancient Japanese form of percussion made Maceo something of a curiosity to many in LA’s Japanese-American community, including documentary filmmaker John Esaki. John produced and directed a film called “Maceo: Demon Drummer From East LA.” JOHN: “Here was a young person who was not Japanese or Japanese-American and he was really so passionate about playing the Taiko drum. It just fascinated me that someone outside of the Japanese culture would have this interest. With Maceo, I always thought he was very genuine about following his interest. He found something that gave him great joy to participate in and he was going to follow that path to see where it led.” Where it led was to Japan. At the age of 15, Maceo was recruited by Ondekoza, a celebrated and highly athletic Taiko troupe that performs concerts around the world. MACEO: “One of the main things we did in Ondekoza was run. We were very famous for running a marathon and then performing Taiko afterwards. So running was a big part of our daily life. We’d wake up in the morning and we’d run. In the afternoon, we’d run again. Part of this training was to build up stamina for the shows that we would perform. One day, I was running and this truck was carrying metal pipes. They rolled off and landed on me. I woke up in the hospital after a seven-hour operation. A week later, they amputated my left leg. And there began a new journey.” The first steps of Maceo’s new journey began with long, dark nights far away from home in a Japanese hospital. He says it was difficult for him to reconcile his newly altered physical form with his intense desire to be a professional drummer. But over the next couple months, Maceo’s Taiko drum helped him find his way out of the darkness. MACEO: “It might sound strange, but I used to talk to my drum and try to have a communication with it on a different level than other members had. Hitting this drum, gave me all this energy back and gave me the will to continue on with my goals. It pretty much took over me and helped me not be sad all the time and not feel discouraged. This drum was my friend. It was my therapy.” Less than a year after his accident in Japan, Maceo Hernandez returned to the United States and ran the New York City Marathon on a prosthetic leg. Moments after crossing the finish line, fellow members of Ondekoza carried him to a nearby stage where he performed a 15-minute Taiko solo. The spectacular moment epitomized Ondekoza’s principle of Sogakuron – that running and drumming are one, and a reflection of the drama and energy of life.
