In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin with Vincent Racaniello are alarmed at how RFK is breaking his promise of not altering vaccine policies, and nonexistent data and studies are used by members of the ACIP to make changes to immunization practices in the absence of a CDC director, justification for not honoring the US commitment to GAVI and global public policies including support of routine childhood immunizations, placing millions of children at risk for the return of vaccine preventable diseases including polio outbreaks in Pappa New Guinea and increased circulation of wildtype type 1 poliovirus, before Dr. Griffin reviews recent statistics on RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, approval of Merck's anti-RSV mRNA monoclonal antibody, whether or not the NB.1.8.1 should be included in the fall 2025 vaccines, immunization recommendations for COVID-19 vaccines, where to find PEMGARDA, changes in COVID mRNA vaccine labeling and reframing of the science around the vaccine, provides information for Columbia University Irving Medical Center's long COVID treatment center, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions, and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research Subscribe (free): Apple Podcasts, RSS, email Become a patron of TWiV!

"The Good Listening To" Podcast with me Chris Grimes! (aka a "GLT with me CG!")
Send us a textWhat does it take to rebuild your life when everything is suddenly taken away? Neil Stringer, known as 'The Copy Doctor', takes us on a profound journey from his days as a brass musician in the Salvation Army to becoming a digital nomad copywriter in Vietnam – and then facing the devastating moment when he went completely blind."It was the 16th of May 2020. I remember at the time it was 4:45 in the afternoon. That's when I went blind. As in blackness, as in blind," Neil recounts with remarkable candor. Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes that had damaged his optic nerves, Neil spent eight days in hospital on steroids before returning home unable to work. He lost all his clients and had to rebuild from nothing, writing articles for half a cent per word just to survive.Before this life-altering event, Neil had already lived several fascinating lives – from nearly becoming a professional trumpet player to running substance abuse programs as a clinical psychologist with a PhD. His path to becoming The Copy Doctor emerged from his psychological understanding of human behavior and how to ethically persuade rather than manipulate. This expertise led him to write copy that turned a $37 offer into $42,000 in two weeks and helped clients generate millions in revenue.Throughout the conversation, Neil shares powerful wisdom about the difference between having a profession, a vocation, and a calling. "When you have a calling, you elevate to the top of the chart because it puts a different context behind everything you do," he explains. His insights on gratitude as a foundation for resilience are equally moving: "I always begin by counting my blessings and being grateful for what I have got. And I keep doing that until I stop worrying about what I haven't got."Whether you're facing your own life challenges, seeking to understand the psychology behind effective marketing, or simply drawn to remarkable human stories, Neil's journey will inspire you to find purpose in adversity and to recognize that "it's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice."Tune in next week for more stories of 'Distinction & Genius' from The Good Listening To Show 'Clearing'.

John's academic writings have focused on connections between practices of wisdom, compassion and devotion in Indo-Tibetan Buddhism, on adapting Buddhist practices for contemporary minds, and on interfaith learning. In 2000, John was ordained as a Lama, a meditation teacher of innate compassion and wisdom, within the Nyingma Dzogchen tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. As a meditation teacher, John is known for guiding participants in their discovery of underlying powers of love and wisdom. Since 2000, John has taught meditations of innate compassion and wisdom, adapted from Tibetan Buddhism, for modern Buddhists, those in other spiritual traditions, and for people in caring roles and professions.“In order to really be the kind of person that can make a beneficial difference in our world, we have to learn how to drop down below the superficial reactive level of consciousness we all tend to live on together into more of the depth of our being, the ground of our experience.” – John MaranskyAbout Paul Condon, Ph.D.Paul Condon is an associate professor of psychology at Southern Oregon University, a visiting lecturer for the Centre for Buddhist Studies at Rangjung Yeshe Institute, and a fellow of the Mind & Life Institute. His research examines the ways that psychological science can inform the adaptation of meditation practices in dialogue with contemplative traditions, with an emphasis on compassion training. His research and writing also examine the constructed nature of emotion and concepts, attachment theory, and the impact of meditation on compassion and prosocial behavior. Paul also teaches meditation practices adapted from the Tibetan Nyingma tradition. He has studied and collaborated with John Makransky to develop and teach Sustainable Compassion Training. His practice and teaching have also been informed by study with Tsoknyi Rinpoche, Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche, Lama Willa Baker, and the Courage of Care Coalition. "Care is a natural capacity and being in a caring relationship with another being is more natural and less effortful than being in an antagonist or conflict-based connection.” – Paul CondonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nostalgia can be a balm. Especially when we're in what feels like a never-ending season of upheaval and change, where every time we start to get our footing, something shifts yet again.When we're in the throes of change–in the liminal space, the in-between, the in-betwixt–we as human beings are neurologically wired to seek out what's known, to reach for comfort and what feels like home. And nostalgia does that for us. It's no wonder we look back fondly on simpler times, real or imagined.Because nostalgia isn't necessarily the truth. And nostalgia doesn't always serve our growth. Connecting over “Remember when?” can too easily divide us when it becomes a rigid longing for a past that excludes and harms others or ignores painful truths.So many of us are living and leading in the confusion, disorientation, and discomfort of these liminal spaces of change. Which is why I invited today's guest to join me for a conversation about the pulls of nostalgia, the discomfort of liminal space, and the courage it takes to lead ourselves and others through uncertainty without losing our way.Chris Hoff, PhD, LMFT is a narrative therapist, educator, podcaster, and founder of the California Family Institute. His work explores the intersection of psychotherapy, poststructural theory, and speculative futures. Chris is known for his ability to translate complex ideas into pragmatic tools for clients and clinicians alike. He is the host of The Radical Therapist Podcast and co-editor of An Encyclopedia of Radical Helping. Chris's teaching, writing, and consulting center the creative, relational, and political dimensions of healing and change.Listen to the full episode to hear:How the concept of liminal space can help us normalize the push-pull of the known and the possibleHow the process of Narrative Therapy can help people reclaim agency and possibility Why building coalitions with shared commitments is vital for making change across our differencesHow intentional scenario planning can help people and organizations see what they need to make the best-case scenario more likelyHow nostalgia can keep us stuck in problematic storylines about the pastLearn more about Chris Hoff, PhD, LMFT:WebsiteCalifornia Family InstituteThe Radical Therapist PodcastLiminal Lab on SubstackInstagram: @drchrishoffYouTube: @drchrishoffAn Encyclopedia of Radical Helping, Erin Segal, Chris Hoff, Julie ChoLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:Man's Search for Meaning, Viktor FranklThe Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients, Irvin YalomNarrative TherapyCollective Cultural Action | The Critical Art EnsembleBeyond Community | Liminal LabTherapy Rocks! | Against Nostalgia | Liminal LabZen at the End of Religion: An Introduction for the Curious, the Skeptical, and the Spiritual But Not Religious, James Ishmael FordPhilosophy for Militants, Alain BadiouThe Years of Theory: Lectures on Modern French Thought, Fredric JamesonThe 1975 - Somebody ElseAndorValley GirlSome Kind of Wonderful

Daily Dose of Hope June 27, 2025 Scripture – Matthew 18:21-35 Prayer: Holy God, Thank you for your incredible mercy. Your compassion is never-ending and your love is powerful. We are overflowing with gratitude. Help us demonstrate this same compassion and love toward others. May we become people of grace and see people through your eyes. In Your Name, Amen. Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, a Deep Dive into the Gospels and Acts. I just want to remind you all of our amazing worship night tonight at 7:30pm AND our special guest on Sunday. Dr. David Wilkinson is giving the message in the English-speaking service. He is a PhD in both astrophysics and theology and his life's work has centered on the intersection between the Christian faith and science. After the 9:30 service, he has also agreed to a Q&A in the social hall, where a pancake and sausage brunch will be available by donation. All donations will go to the Residing Hope Children's Home. Today is part two of Matthew 18. Here we have this very uncomfortable parable on forgiveness. Peter wants to know how far should forgiveness be extended. I mean, Jesus had just offered this conflict mediation model for churches to ensure that justice is upheld. But what about mercy? Jesus' answer is really fascinating. He basically is saying, “Stop keeping count!” Let's talk a bit about the parable itself. A servant owes his master a huge sum of money, something like 10,000 bags of gold. The servant was facing both imprisonment and the sale of his family to compensate for the debt. He goes to the master and asks for mercy. The readers are totally surprised – the master shows tremendous compassion and mercy. He totally forgives the huge debt. Unheard of and an act of extravagant compassion. That same servant then goes demanding payment of a debt that a fellow servant owes him. This isn't a big debt, but something smaller and more manageable. When the fellow servant asks for more time, the forgiven servant refuses, denies compassion, and has the poor guy thrown in prison. Seeing the injustice of all of this, there are whistleblowers that see what happens and let the master know. The master is enraged and reinstates the man's debt. How could he fail to show compassion after such great compassion was shown to him. He is imprisoned and tortured. While the ending is really horrific, Jesus is once again making a point. Forgiveness is critical and yet it is very hard. If we look at the whole of Matthew 18, we see the need of both holding people accountable and offering extravagant compassion and forgiveness. How do we even begin to reconcile this as a church? Upon doing research on this topic, one scholar suggested that the most powerful and instructive model is the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in post-apartheid South Africa, guided by Bishop Desmond Tutu. Reconciliation entails both the offer of forgiveness and the naming and acceptance of responsibility for wrongful, wounding conduct. This approach to mercy and justice is congruent with Jesus' call in Matthew 18 as a whole: while the faith community prioritizes grace and mercy, it also holds its members accountable for what they do to others. But what else might Jesus be saying in this parable? Pay compassion forward. God has been extraordinarily compassionate toward us. He gave his Son for us, so we might live abundantly now and in the future. Our sins are forgiven, our slate has been wiped clean. We owe Him a debt of gratitude. And yet, here we see what that looks like in a practical way. Show mercy, demonstrate compassion, love well, and forgive. Blessings, Pastor Vicki

Recorded in Naarm at the Indigenous Leadership Summit, this yarn dives deep into the meaning of sacred leadership, emotional intelligence, and the importance of First Nations ways of knowing, being, and doing within modern systems. Aunt shares her journey from growing up in Longreach to working in public service and academia, and how she has applied First Nations knowledge to leadership development through her PhD and mentoring programs. She unpacks the foundational cultural laws of reciprocity, responsibility, and respect — teachings passed down through generations — and how these values shape authentic leadership today.

In this episode, I sit down with Steve Kim, a speaker with Apologetics Canada and a PhD student researching transhumanism, to explore one of the most pressing worldviews emerging in our time. We talk about what transhumanism is, why it matters, and how it's already shaping how people think about identity, purpose, and salvation. Drawing on the ideas of Nietzsche and Chesterton, Steve helps us see what's at stake in the push to become “more than human”—and how the Christian gospel offers a far more hopeful, embodied, and grounded vision of what it means to be human. In his early 20s, Steve experienced a faith crisis due to intellectual undernourishment. Through this experience, he has come to see apologetics as the “intellectual care of the soul” and now feels a personal burden to walk with others who may be struggling with doubt and/or seeking sincerely. Steve holds a diploma in Worship Arts and a BA in Biblical Studies from Columbia Bible College in Abbotsford, BC. He has completed a master's degree in Christian Apologetics through Biola University in La Mirada, CA. He began his PhD studies through the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, exploring any proper limits of human enhancement. https://www.ryleyheppner.com https://apologeticscanada.com/ryley-heppner/

In this surgical education episode, the Cleveland Clinic General Surgery Education Team explores the past, present, and future of resident autonomy in the operating room. With guest colorectal surgeons Dr. Tracy Hull (recently retired) and Dr. David Rosen (early career faculty), we discuss how autonomy was granted in “the good ole days,” how educational culture and institutional pressures shape current practice, and what thoughtful autonomy looks like moving forward. Through candid stories—from emergent cases and missed enterotomies to thumbtacks pulled off the wall to stop bleeding—we get a nuanced look at what surgical independence really means, and how to responsibly develop it. Join hosts Pooja Varman, MD, Judith French, PhD, and Jeremy Lipman, MD, MHPE, for this conversation about what it means to train competent, confident, and independent surgeons. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, listeners will be able to 1. Define operative autonomy and its educational value in surgical training 2. Identify barriers to providing resident autonomy in modern surgical environments 3. Discuss strategies for tailoring autonomy to the skill level and readiness of the trainee 4. Describe approaches to communicating resident involvement to patients References 1. Sehat AJ, Oliver JB, Yu Y, Kunac A, Anjaria DJ.

Invented by renowned physical therapist Jay Dicharry, MOBO helps you stabilize your stance with an innovative rocker board that's set up on two fins. The design effectively forces you to drive your big toe into the board to improve your stability. I was pretty arrogant going into my first session on the MOBO Board. How hard can it be to balance, right? Well, I was humbled pretty quickly! Even if you're a good runner, better balance, stability, and proprioception is going to help you have a more powerful stride and prevent more running injuries. You'll learn how to improve the efficiency of the kinetic chain from your hip to your big toe. Because as Jay likes to say, it's not just how strong you are, but how well you use that strength. I was recently at a weekend physical therapy workshop (lol I was the only running coach) and learned how important (and rare) this simple movement is.

Emily Kircher-Morris welcomes Dr. Chris Wells, a writer, researcher, and podcaster who specializes in positive disintegration. They break down the theory of positive disintegration, developed by Kazimierz Dąbrowski, and its relevance to personal growth and neurodiversity. They explore the concept of over-excitability, its implications in the gifted education community, and the controversy surrounding its interpretation. They talk about disintegration as a pathway to self-actualization, and the need for community support for those experiencing intense emotional states. They also discuss the future directions of integrating Dąbrowski's theory with contemporary understandings of neurodiversity. TAKEAWAYS The theory of positive disintegration is about personal growth. Dąbrowski's work connects mental illness with developmental potential. Over-excitability is a key concept in understanding neurodivergence. The gifted education community often misunderstands Dąbrowski's theory. Positive disintegration can lead to self-actualization. Intensity and sensitivity can be both a blessing and a curse. Navigating disintegration requires a grounding practice. Community support is essential for those experiencing disintegration. Episode 147, with Alex Vuyk: Does Personality Impact Neurodiversity?

On this episode of CounterPunch Radio, Erik Wallenberg and Joshua Frank are joined by Kathleen Brown and Michael Mueller to discuss the violent crackdown and subsequent criminal charges lodged against pro-Palestine activists at the University of Michigan. It's a tale of a iniquitous D.A., a Israel-friendly Board of Trustees and students persevering against all odds. Kathleen Brown is a doctoral student at the University of Michigan and former vice president of her labor union, Graduate Employees' Organization, AFT Local 3550, where she was involved in grad worker strikes in 2020 and 2023. She has been active in organizing for divestment on campus. Most recently, she was part of the year-long legal defense campaign "Dana Nessel, Drop the Charges" to pressure Michigan Attorney General to end her prosecution of 12 anti-genocide activists from U-M. Her political writing can be found on The Abusable Past, Against the Current, Spectre Journal, and Long Haul Magazine. Michael Mueller is a former PhD student at the University of Michigan, an organizer in the Graduate Employees' Organization during the 2023 graduate worker strike, and a participant in the local movement demanding that UM divest its ties to the genocide in Palestine. He is one of seven people -- including students, workers, and community members -- whom Michigan Attorney Dana Nessel pursued felony charges against for pro-Palestine action at the UM Gaza Solidarity Encampment, on top of her additional charges against participants in the encampment and in an August pro-Palestine die-in.

Care More Be Better: Social Impact, Sustainability + Regeneration Now
The human footprint may not be easily measurable, but it is crucial in shaping the planet for better and for worse – but most of the time it is the latter. Corinna Bellizzi sits down with biologist Shane Campbell-Staton, PhD, who hosts the aptly named show "Human Footprint." He talks all about his experiences traveling around the world to delve into different human activities, cultures, and lifestyles to understand how they impact our society and environment. Shane also shares insights on how supermarkets changed the way we eat, the value of humanity's fundamental interconnectedness, the true costs of hydroelectric power, and the truth behind the bee colony collapse.About Guest:Shane is interested in how human history, culture, technology and politics influence life, biological stress and evolution of species around the world. He uses physiology, gene expression, genomics and experimentation to identify genes and traits that allow animals to rapidly adapt to new environmental pressures faced in a human-dominated world. Shane also has a deep passion for sharing science with the public. His own passion for science was kindled through television as a child. Growing up in a small town in South Carolina, he was not exposed to much nature or the outdoors. But watching nature documentaries and TV shows featuring passionate presenters, like Steve Irwin and Jeff Corwin, he developed a love for the natural world. Now Shane is sharing his own passions and the wonders of science with a diverse audience through his research as well as visual and audio media.Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shane-campbell-staton-034a1380/Guest Website: https://www.campbellstaton.com/Guest Social: https://www.pbs.org/show/human-footprint/https://www.instagram.com/shane.campbellstaton/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-biology-of-superheroes-podcast/id1314139416https://www.tiktok.com/@pbshttps://www.youtube.com/@PBS/featuredAdditional Resources Mentioned:The Impact of Climate Storytelling with Trip Jennings and Maiya May of WEATHERED, a PBS DocuseriesThe Impact of Dams on the Health of Our Ecosystems with Steve Hawley, Author of CrackedThe Consequences of Farmed Salmon with Simen Saetre, Author of The New FishShow Notes: Raw audio00:02:37 - Shane Campbell-Staton And Human Footprint00:08:24 - What To Expect From Season 200:11:19 - How Supermarkets Changed Our Daily Lives00:13:41 - Understanding The Honey Trap And Colony Collapse00:17:49 - Insights About Hydroelectric Power00:24:50 - Appreciating Fundamental Interconnectedness00:26:52- Environmental Response To Human Footprint00:34:45 - Telling Stories About Social Justice00:46:12 - Evolving From Domination To Reciprocity00:53:39 - How To Remian Hopeful And Keep The Faith00:56:17 - Making Small Changes For The Greater Good00:59:51 - Episode Wrap-up And Closing WordsJOIN OUR CIRCLE.

Send us a textHow brains compute and learn, blending neuroscience with AI insights.Episode Summary: Dr. Marius Pachitariu discusses how the brain computes information across scales, from single neurons to complex networks, using mice to study visual learning. He explains the differences between supervised and unsupervised learning, the brain's high-dimensional processing, and how it compares to artificial neural networks like large language models. The conversation also covers experimental techniques, such as calcium imaging, and the role of reward prediction errors in learning.About the guest: Marius Pachitariu, PhD is a group leader at the Janelia Research Campus, leading a lab focused on neuroscience with a blend of experimental and computational approaches.Discussion Points:The brain operates at multiple scales, with single neurons acting as computational units and networks creating complex, high-dimensional computations.Pachitariu's lab uses advanced tools like calcium imaging to record from tens of thousands of neurons simultaneously in mice.Unsupervised learning allows mice to form visual memories of environments without rewards, speeding up task learning later.Brain activity during sleep or anesthesia is highly correlated, unlike the high-dimensional, less predictable patterns during wakefulness.The brain expands sensory input dimensionality (e.g., from retina to visual cortex) to simplify complex computations, a principle also seen in artificial neural networks.Reward prediction errors, driven by dopamine, signal when expectations are violated, aiding learning by updating internal models.Large language models rely on self-supervised learning, predicting next words, but lack the forward-modeling reasoning humans excel at.Related episode:M&M 44: Consciousness, Perception, Hallucinations, Selfhood, Neuroscience, Psychedelics & "Being You" | Anil Seth*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

A generation ago, a big clot in the brain meant paralysis or worse. Today, doctors can diagnose clots on AI-enabled brain scans; provide life-saving, targeted medications; or snake a catheter from a patient's groin into the brain to vacuum out the clot. If they intervene in time, they can watch speech and movement return before the sedatives wear off. How did that happen—and what's still missing?In this episode of From Our Neurons to Yours, Stanford neuroscientist and neurocritical care specialist Marion Buckwalter, MD, PhD retraces the 70-year chain of curiosity-driven research—biochemistry, imaging, materials science, AI—behind today's remarkable improvements in stroke care. She also warns what future breakthroughs are at stake if support for basic science stalls.Learn MoreBuckwalter Lab siteHistory of Stroke Care:Tissue Plasminogen Activator for Acute Ischemic Stroke (NINDS) On the development of the first-gen clot-busting drug, tPA Optimizing endovascular therapy for ischemic stroke (NINDS) On the development of mechanical clot clearance using thrombectomy.Mechanical Thrombectomy for Large Ischemic Stroke (Neurology, 2023) A literature meta-analysis shows that thrombectomy improves stroke outcomes by 2.5X, on top of 2X improvements from clot-busting drugsThe uncertain future of federal support for scienceThe Gutting of America's Medical Research: Here Is Every Canceled or Delayed N.I.H.
