Jaya Tiwari, Senior Vice President of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs at XVIVO, which is focused on improving organ preservation for transplantation. Current organ preservation methods using ice coolers limit the time and distance organs can be transported. XVIVO's perfusion technology can significantly extend the preservation time of hearts, kidneys, livers, and lungs, providing hospitals and transplant centers access to more viable organs. The company is passionate about increasing organ availability to give more patients access to life-saving transplants. Jaya explains, "I take it back to 1967 when the first heart transplant was performed in Cape Town, and the way that the heart was preserved and transported in essentially an ice box. The standard of care for the preservation of organs is still an ice or an ice cooler with ice. So, this decreases metabolic activities. So, to try to preserve the organs so that you can get them from the donor to the recipient, the problem is that the organs are not viable for a very long time, and they start to degrade very quickly. That really limits the amount of time that the organs can be on ice, transported from the donor to the recipient hospital. Because of that logistical complexity, a lot of organs are ultimately not transplanted." "There have been some preclinical studies that we've done that have shown viability of the heart tissue for up to 24 hours. But what I think is probably the most remarkable example that we've seen is that the universities in Paris have put together something called an investigator-initiated study, where they actually were able to transport a donor heart from the French West Indies to Paris for transplant. That was about 12 hours that the heart was in transport and using the device. So that's remarkable because that essentially tripled the standard preservation time for hearts. Now, in the US, we have a clinical trial where we're currently seeking approval from the FDA that it's safe and effective to use this device for up to 12 hours." #XVIVO #HealthcareInnovation #LifeSavingTechnology #PatientOutcomes #OrganTransplantation #OrganTransplants xvivogroup.com Download the transcript here

Harmony Slater reconnects with longtime friend and fellow teacher Paul Dallaghan to explore his journey from Ireland to India, from business school to biology, and from asana to advanced Pranayama. Paul shares the inner current that drew him to spiritual practice, his years immersed in India and Thailand, and his groundbreaking research on how breath-based yoga practices affect longevity, telomere length, and mental health. The episode is filled with insights on what it means to be truly engaged in your practice, how ancient yogic techniques translate into measurable physiological benefits, and why sincerity may be the most essential ingredient in personal transformation. Whether you're a seasoned yoga practitioner or someone looking to understand how the breath can change your brain and your life, this episode will spark curiosity and offer grounded, heart-centered wisdom. In This Episode, You'll Hear: Paul's early spiritual awakenings from farms in France to kibbutzim in Israel How yoga found him in New York City and redirected his life path His years in India, spiritual pilgrimages, and devotion to Pranayama The influence of Sri O.P. Tiwari and the Kaivalyadhama lineage His PhD research at Emory University: what ancient yogis knew and science now confirms Why telomere length matters and how breath practices directly impact it What sincerity in practice really looks like, and why it's essential Surprising stories about psychedelics and why they had little effect on him Guest Bio: Paul has spent 30 years in the wellbeing arena, from immersion in original breath-body-mind practices to cultural and scientific study. He is CEO and founder of Samahita Retreat since 2003, the first full wellbeing retreat center in Asia, known for breath, yoga, wellness and fitness, thriving today on Ko Samui, Thailand. Paul spent many years in India, including in Mysore with P Jois, being the last to be certified by him in his lifetime (in 2007). He learnt pranayama in-depth with his primary teacher, O.P.Tiwari. Paul was acknowledged in 2022 in the Indian tradition as “Master Yogi: Pranacharya (Breath Expert)”.

Angie Tiwari has been practicing yoga her entire life. She grew up in an Indian Hindu household where breathing techniques, poses, and chanting were the norm. But when she rediscovered yoga in gyms/studios, it felt so far removed from the practice that she knew she didn't actually recognize them as the same. Since then, she has been on a mission to uplift South Indian culture and decolonize yoga. In this enriching episode, Michelle and Angie discuss the decolonization of yoga and how to support the empowerment of South Indian culture as a yoga teacher teaching in studios and gyms. Angie is starting her next 50 hour Yoga Teacher Training, Rooted in Respect, offering students the opportunity to vulnerably look at the history and culture that is the foundation of yoga.

MARKET SHOCK: MONDAY MELTDOWN, BUT A POSSIBLE REBOUND India's stock markets suffered their worst single-day fall in 10 months, with the Sensex plunging nearly 3%—opening 4,000 points lower—after Donald Trump's tariff threats sent global investors into panic mode. Midcap and smallcap indices dropped even more, down 3.5% and 3.8%. Despite the turmoil, experts say this isn't an India-specific issue. “Today's correction is more global panic than India-specific,” noted Finavenue's Abhishek Jaiswal. Historically, such sharp corrections are often followed by strong rebounds. Meanwhile, the rupee stayed largely stable, slipping only 0.47%, and India's markets are still outperforming peers like Japan, Hong Kong, and the US. UP POLITICIAN ARRESTED IN MASSIVE ₹750 CR BANK FRAUD Vinay Shankar Tiwari, son of late UP strongman Hari Shankar Tiwari, was arrested in a ₹750 crore bank fraud case. The ED claims he diverted funds from a ₹1,129 crore loan taken by Gangotri Enterprises, where he was a promoter. After ignoring multiple summons, Tiwari was picked up from Lucknow following raids across five cities. Over ₹100 crore in assets have been seized. The case stems from a CBI FIR filed after complaints from the Bank of India-led lending consortium. Tiwari, once elected on a BSP ticket and later with the Samajwadi Party, is now at the heart of one of UP's largest banking scandals. TRUMP TARIFFS COULD SHRINK INDIA'S US EXPORTS BY $5.76 BILLION India's booming exports to the US face a serious threat under Donald Trump's revived “America First” agenda. According to the Global Trade Research Initiative, new tariffs could slash India's exports by over 6% in 2025. High-impact sectors include gems and jewellery, electronics, auto parts, and seafood. Of the $89.8 billion India exported to the US last year, $67.2 billion will now face a steep 26% duty—up from lower MFN rates. While some industries may benefit from Chinese penalties, many others face steep losses. India's government is maintaining a cautious stance, avoiding retaliatory tariffs for now. LPG PRICES UP ₹50; PETROL, DIESEL EXCISE HIKED Households will pay more for cooking gas starting Tuesday, April 8, with LPG cylinder prices hiked by ₹50. Under the Ujjwala scheme, subsidized cylinders will now cost ₹550; others will pay ₹853. The government also raised excise duty on petrol and diesel by ₹2 per litre but clarified that pump prices will remain unchanged for now, thanks to falling global crude prices. “The price hike will be reviewed,” said Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, noting the move will help recover ₹43,000 crore in losses incurred by oil companies due to previous subsidies. PRESTIGE HOSPITALITY GEARS UP FOR ₹2,500 CR IPO Prestige Hospitality Ventures, a subsidiary of real estate major Prestige Group, is preparing to go public to raise ₹2,000–2,500 crore. The company is expected to file its draft IPO papers with SEBI in the next two weeks. The funds will be used to expand its hotel portfolio and reduce debt. The firm currently operates eight hotels (1,477 keys) and has 15 more in the pipeline, including high-end properties in Delhi Aerocity, Mumbai, Goa, and more. With travel demand rising and partnerships like Marriott in place, the IPO aims to tap into India's fast-growing hospitality market. Prestige joins a wave of hotel IPOs including Samhi Hotels, Juniper Hotels, and Ventive Hospitality, as the sector rides a post-pandemic growth wave.

DateMarch 30, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we explore anger as both gift and glitch in the spiritual life. Anger can be holy—alerting us to injustice and moving us toward righteous action—or destructive when we nurse grudges that consume our souls. Jesus himself models this tension, flipping tables in righteous indignation while warning against harboring resentment that corrodes our capacity for love. The invitation is not to eliminate anger but to transform it: letting our rage reveal what we truly value, then channeling that energy toward healing and reconciliation rather than letting bitterness define us.ReferencesScripture: Matthew 5:17–26About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

The political landscape in India is witnessing major shifts, with Nitish Kumar's unpredictable moves adding to the confusion. Meanwhile, the judiciary crisis is raising serious questions about legal accountability, and the Kisan Andolan is being systematically dismantled. At the same time, CM Yogi Adityanath continues his strong stance against illegal encroachments and historical wrongs, reinforcing his image as a leader unafraid to take on invaders. Abhishek Tiwari breaks down these crucial developments with Sanjay Dixit, analyzing their political, legal, and social implications.
“Evaluation of speed breeding conditions for accelerating Fusarium head blight and deoxynivalenol screening in wheat” with Nidhi Rawat and Vivek Tiwari. Fusarium head blight (FHB), also known as head scab, is one of the most significant diseases affecting wheat, causing substantial economic losses for farmers in the U.S. and worldwide. While FHB resistant wheat lines have been identified, breeding these traits into desirable cultivars is a time-consuming process that can take decades, with uncertain success. In the U.S., particularly for spring wheat, crossing of wheat lines can typically be done only once per year due to seasonal limitations, which slow down the process of development of disease-resistant cultivars. To overcome this challenge, speed breeding—an approach that involves growing plants under extended light exposure (20–22 hours per day) to accelerate their life cycle—offers a promising solution. This technique enables multiple generations of wheat to be produced within a single year, allowing for more frequent crossings and a faster transfer of disease resistance traits into desirable cultivars. In this episode, Drs. Nidhi Rawat and Vijay Tiwari share their insights on using speed breeding techniques to accelerate the breeding of disease-resistant cultivars. Tune in to learn: · What is Fusarium head blight? · How does Fusarium head blight cause economic loss to farmers? · What is speed breeding? · How does speed breeding help in developing disease resistance cultivars? · What are challenges in adopting speed breeding?

DateJanuary 26, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we explore Howard Thurman's powerful concept of "Inner Authority" and what it means to truly come alive to ourselves. Through the lens of Christian mysticism and social justice, we discover how the Holy Spirit empowers us to speak truth and act boldly in the face of injustice. Thurman teaches us that spiritual formation and social transformation are inseparable – when we learn to listen deeply to the divine presence within, we find the courage to stand on holy ground and work for justice in community.ReferencesScripture: John 14:15–21About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.
