Episode 025 | Dr. Teo Soleymani, a Los Angeles native, one of my Stanford residency mates, and founder of California Dermatology and Mohs Surgery Specialists (CDMS), completed his undergraduate studies in Evolutionary Biology at UCLA. He went on to graduate from the UC Irvine School of Medicine, where he received numerous accolades for academic excellence including induction into the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha honor society. Dr. Soleymani completed his internship at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was awarded the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine Excellence in Teaching with Humanism Award. He went on to complete his residency at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. While at Stanford, Dr. Soleymani worked with world-renowned experts in cutaneous oncology and complex skin diseases. Following residency, he completed a rigorous fellowship in Mohs Micrographic Surgery, Cutaneous Oncology, and Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the Zitelli and Brodland Skin Cancer Center under the tutelage of John Zitelli, M.D. Considered by many to be the world's most prestigious and competitive fellowship, the program is directed by both John Zitelli, M.D. and David Brodland, M.D, widely considered to be two of the pre-eminent authorities in Mohs surgery.

On January 3, 2024, Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo made an explosive announcement: “I am calling for a halt to the use of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.” Dr. Ladapo says the FDA and CDC “have always played it fast and loose with COVID-19 vaccine safety, but their failure to test for DNA integration with the human genome — as their own guidelines dictate — when the vaccines are known to be contaminated with foreign DNA is intolerable.” “If the risks of DNA integration have not been assessed for mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, these vaccines are not appropriate for use in human beings,” reads a segment of Dr. Ladapo's letter to the FDA.

Many parents hesitate to jump to a medication treatment for their child's ADHD and ask about alternatives to medication. On this podcast, we have talked about different medication options but also behavioral therapies, mindfulness, and classroom accommodations, but today we're talking about an empirically supported non-medication treatment for ADHD and the results look very promising. Today's guest is Dr. Sandra Loo who researches Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation and its impact on ADHD symptoms in children ages 7-12 at UCLA. In today's episode, she describes what Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (TNS) is and how it works to generate brain activity. She also shares the benefits of the treatment and provides updates on how the study is going. It is a very exciting advance in non-medication treatment alternatives for children and you can reach out to Dr. Loo through the links below to participate in the study as well.   Show Notes: [2:44] - The work Dr. Loo is doing with this new treatment is exciting and hopeful. [4:06] - Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation is the first FDA cleared treatment of ADHD of kids ages 7-12 years old. It's a mild stimulation that generates brain activity. Dr. Loo describes the process. [5:15] - After about 4 weeks of nightly stimulation, Dr. Loo has seen improvement in ADHD symptoms. [7:18] - Children on the older side of the 7-12 age range tend to feel comfortable putting the device on themselves. Dr. Loo explains what it might feel like for a child to wear. [9:16] - This isn't medication and results are slower than medication treatment. [10:22] - Improvements show the greatest results in inattention. [11:35] - Dr. Loo is also working on predictors that will help determine what treatment would be best for individual children. [13:08] - One observation from parents is that ADHD symptoms are better and that their child is less emotionally dysregulated. [15:45] - After 4 weeks in the study, they found that stopping the treatment did see an increase in the symptoms again. [17:37] - There are other goals for this treatment that are still being researched. [18:15] - There have not been any adverse side effects of this treatment and everyone responds differently. [20:47] - What are the comparisons to more common medication treatment results? [23:33] - All presentations of ADHD are welcome to participate in this study. [25:23] - Dr. Loo shares how to get more information and who to contact to participate, all of which are linked below. [30:26] - This is a multi-site study, also available in Washington.   About Our Guest: Sandra Loo, Ph.D. is Professor of Psychiatry and Director of Pediatric Neuropsychology within the Department of Psychiatry, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine. Dr. Loo is a licensed clinical psychologist and translational researcher whose work over the past 25 years has encompassed genetic, electrophysiology (EEG) and neurocognitive biomarkers within ADHD and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Currently, her research is focused on the development of empirically supported, non-medication treatments for ADHD. She has published over 150 peer reviewed journal articles and book chapters on these and related subjects.

My guest on this episode is Reiko Joseph, LMFT. Reiko is a therapist who has credentials in Psychedelic Somatic Interactional Therapy. She is also Clinical Instructor, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine, Certified Instructor, Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), approved by the International Experiential Dynamic Therapy Association (IEDTA), and a member of the California Association of Marriage & Family Therapists (CAMFT). Reiko is a masterful therapist and colleague in Los Angeles who practices/teaches ISTDP therapy and has in recent years ventured into the realm of psychedelic assisted therapies. The jury is still out for me on psychedelics for a number of reasons-- but I'm cautiously curious about their clinical application. I have many many more questions, but this discussion is solid intro for anyone who is curious about, skeptical of, or sold on psychedelics in clinical practice. Hopefully in a follow up episode we can discuss the difference between learning about our defenses consciously vs. under psychedelic influence, the mechanisms of change, and what models of the mind (if any) can best explain aspects of psychedelic experience. I wanted to talk to Reiko because I've seen her walk patients through major unlockings of the unconscious without the aid of psychedelics and achieve significant healing (listen to the end of the BOLD VOICES podcast Episode 5 on "Unlocking the Unconscious" to hear a testimonial from @dr.paulflores about an unlocking he had while in therapy with Reiko)...what do psychedelics have to add to what is already a powerful experience? Questions explored on this episode: What is the importance of the unconscious re: therapy and healing? What do psychedelics have to add/how do they help in this regard? Who should be careful? What do you consider when trying to figure out when psychedelics are indicated? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Lung cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed type of cancer and so it is fitting that we start the first of our disease-specific oncology series with this diagnosis. This week, we sit down with Thoracic Surgeon, Dr. Jane Yanagawa to discuss surgical considerations in treatment of NSCLC. * How do you choose what type of surgical resection to do?- Considerations: --Lung anatomy --Location of the nodule within lung--Lymph node involvement-Options: --Pneumonectomy: removal of whole lung --Lobectomy: remove a whole lobe--Segmentectomy/sublobar resection: part of a lobe* What does “adequate margins” mean? And how do you know if it's enough?- If you're removing the whole lobe, it does not matter as much - If you're doing a segmentectomy, you want to have samples evaluated while in the OR because if there is signs of more disease that initially thought, you would take this one step further and do a lobectomy. - Need to consider the patient's situation - how good is their status * Why does preoperative workup matter?- Pulmonary function tests: Surgeons are looking at the %FEV1 and %DLCO to then predict what their function would be AFTER surgery. After surgery, they want to ensure patient has %FEV1 or %DLCO >40%. - Lung anatomy: In patients with COPD and endobronchial lesions, sometimes they also get V/Q scans to evaluate ratio- Cardiac echo: Important in pneumonectomy where removal of lung tissue will also remove a significant amount of blood vessels. Want to rule out pulmonary hypertension pre-operatively. - Pulmonary hypertension can also affect someone's survival while they're ventilating with only one lung during the procedure (“single lung ventilation”). - Smoking status: Smoking can increase complications by ~60%. - Pre-habilitation: Encouraging patients to be fit prior to surgery with walking, nutrition, +/- pulmonary rehabilitation* What is “VATS”?- VATS stands for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery; it is not, in itself, a procedure. But a VATS allows for minimally invasive surgery through the use of a camera. - It involves three incisions (axilla, lowest part of mid-axillary line, one posterior)* In what scenario is a mediastinoscopy warranted? - Needed after EBUS if there is still high index of suspicion for cancer involvement in lymph nodes, even if lymph nodes are negative from EBUS* What is “systematic lymph node sampling”?- An organized way to sample lymph nodes, including all lymph nodes that are along the way, not just the ones that may be involved * As a surgeon, how do you determine if a patient is okay for surgery if the mass is invading another structure?- Need to take the anatomy into consideration - are there major blood vessels or nerves there, for instance, which can impact outcome and recovery.* When should we consider induction chemotherapy from a surgeon's perspective?- Lots of changes in this sphere coming; lots of discrepancy between institutions when there is N2 disease - In Dr. Yanagawa's opinion, anyone with N2 disease should get neoadjuvant therapy * If there is neoadjuvant chemoradiation given, how does that effect your surgery?- Radiation increases scar tissue in the lung tissue. But what is worse is that radiation neoadjuvantly may make wound healing more difficult. She does not prefer radiation pre-operatively- Chemotherapy also adds scar tissue*How does neoadjuvant IO therapy affect scar tissue formation?- The hilum and lymph nodes are more swollen, but does not translate to more complications - She has even seen patients who had gotten IO for another cancer and then get lung cancer, she can still appreciate swollen nodes!* How long after surgery is it safe to start adjuvant therapy?- If patient has a complication from surgery, would not start right away. It is important to discuss with the surgeon about when it is okay to proceed with adjuvant therapy. - If patient has good recovery/without complications, okay to start about 4 weeks after- There is no good guidance yet about when it is safe to start IO after surgery About our guest: Jane Yanagawa, MD is an Assistant Professor of Thoracic Surgery at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine and the UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center. She completed medical school at Baylor College of Medicine, after which she went to UCLA for her surgical residency. She went onto Memorial Sloan-Kettering for her Thoracic Surgery Fellowship.

Ketosis is a normal state in our bodies that we do less and less of because of the American diet, which forces us into the glucose side. So returning to ketosis is not a fad or a particular diet, but it's a way of living. It has health advantages compared to when we burn glucose. For ketogenic diet we add fats and oils. It is best to avoid seed/vegetable oils. They are [3 C's] canola oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, [3 S's] soybean oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, and two others rice bran oil and grapeseed oil. They're very unstable and highly inflammatory. We prefer stable fats, saturated fats, monounsaturated fats such as coconut oil, real olive oil, avocado oil, butter, ghee, duck fat, and lard.  *** CONNECT WITH ROBERT LUFKIN MD ON SOCIAL MEDIA ** Web: https://robertlufkinmd.com/ Twitter:https://twitter.com/robertlufkinmd Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/health-longevity-secrets/id1585563694 FREE REGISTRATION TO THE 7 DAY EVENT HEALTH LONGEVITY SECRETS: https://robert-lufkin.mykajabi.com/a/2147494261/463CbhYu ---------------------------------------------- Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

It’s common knowledge that stress can make you sick. But why? It’s also becoming increasingly understood that it is the body’s own inflammatory system that is responsible for most COVID deaths. Why does the immune system get so confused?If these questions seem interesting but unrelated, this is the podcast for you. Our guest is Steve Cole, PhD, Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine and hero to many of us working in the field of mind-body medicine. Dr. Cole is famous for his work using the expression of genes to examine how stress impacts our immune system to produce mental and physical illness. In recent years he has revolutionized the field by providing the most cogent evolutionary arguments yet advanced for why stress seems to be so bad for us, and conversely, why loving relationships and altruistic mindsets are so beneficial for health. And before the podcast is done we explore how COVID can trick the immune system in ways that look eerily similar to the effects of loneliness. Join us as Dr. Cole explains these fascinating and timely connections.Featuring:Dr. Steve Cole, PhD, Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine Host:Charles Raison, Psychiatrist, Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Emory UniversityAbout Emory University's Center for the Study of Human Health:The Emory Center for the Study of Human Health was developed to expand health knowledge and translate this knowledge to all aspects of life – for the individual and populations as a whole.

Dr. Daniel Geschwind Bio: Dr. Geschwind is the Gordon and Virginia MacDonald Distinguished Professor of Human Genetics, Neurology and Psychiatry at UCLA. In his capacity as Senior Associate Dean and Associate Vice Chancellor of Precision Health, he leads the Institute for Precision Health (IPH) at UCLA, where he oversees campus precision health initiatives. In his laboratory, his group has pioneered the application of systems biology methods in neurologic and psychiatric disease, with a focus on autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and neurodegenerative conditions. Dr. Geschwind is a pioneer in the transcriptomic and functional genomic analyses of the nervous system. His laboratory showed that gene co-expression has a reproducible network structure that can be used to understand neurobiological mechanisms in health and disease. He led the first studies to define the molecular pathology of autism and several other major psychiatric disorders, and has made major contributions to defining the genetic basis of autism. He demonstrated the utility of using gene network approaches to discover new pathways involved in neurodegeneration and new approaches to facilitate neural regeneration.  More recently, his laboratory demonstrated how knowledge of 3-dimensional chromatin structure can be used to understand the functional impact of human genetic variation. Dr. Geschwind has trained over 70 graduate students and post-doctoral research fellows, and is among the highest cited scientists in neurology, neuroscience and genetics (H index > 140). In addition to serving on several scientific advisory boards, including the Faculty of 1000 Medicine, the Scientific Advisory Board for the Allen Institute for Brain Science, the NIMH Advisory Council and the NIH Council of Councils, he currently serves on the editorial boards of the journals Cell, Neuron and Science. He has received several awards for his laboratory's work is an elected Member of the American Association of Physicians and the National Academy of Medicine.   What can big data and genomics offer the individual regarding medical treatment? Dr. Daniel Geschwind is here to explain exome sequencing data analysis as well as how this field might expand and progress. Listen and learn What makes up our genome, how to understand the terms for each part, like exon, intron, and exome, and what parts are effected epigenetically; Why genomics testing still focuses on that 2 to 3 percent of the genome called the exome that codes for proteins; and How sequencing will broaden and change, making preventative care that much more effective for certain patients and more. Dr. Daniel Geschwind is the Gordon and Virginia MacDonald Distinguished Professor in Neurology, Psychiatry, and Human Genetics; the Senior Associate Dean and Associate Vice Chancellor for Precision Health at UCLA; and the director of the Center for Autism Research and Treatment at the Semel Institute at UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine. He opens up the world of genomics for listeners, explaining why an exome sequencing test is the center of precision medicine currently. He explains how the exome is composed of the 3% of your genome that actually codes for protein sequences. What's the rest of the genome up to? Well, scientists believe that remainder of your genome is busy regulating those sequences, determining levels and turning gene expressions on and off.  He explains how scientists use the exome sequencing process. In fact, the majority of people who say they've been sequenced mean, in fact, that their exome has been sequenced. Whole genome sequencing costs about three times as much but offers scientists the same information at this point. However, he thinks this will soon change. As the exome sequencing project continues and our knowledge accumulates, the benefits will increase from whole genome sequencing. The costs are likely to drop as well.  Once it gets inexpensive enough and we have sequenced hundreds of millions of patients with a variety of disorders, we will have much better predictive power.  For more information, he suggests UCLA's Precision Health website.

If meditation didn't exist, would scientists have had to invent it? Dr. Daniel Siegel is a scientist by training and disposition who found his way, unbeknownst to himself, into creating a powerful, innovative meditation technique that is now used by many thousands of people. As he discusses with Ken in today's episode, Dan came to it as a psychiatrist with no prior experience of meditation. But his study of the brain and body and how to treat his suffering patients led him to develop a set of practices that he calls The Wheel of Awareness. After the fact he discovered that the Wheel weaves together the three pillar meditation practices that have been studied by scientific researchers into a single exercise — focused attention meditation, open awareness, and compassion training. Dr. Daniel Siegel is a clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine, a founding co-director of the UCLA Mindful Awareness Research Center, and the executive director of the Mindsight Institute. He is the NY TImes bestselling author many books, including Brainstorm and Mindsight, and co-author of Parenting from the Inside Out and The Whole Brain Child. His new book, Aware: The Science and Practice of Presence, is a hands on guide for the groundbreaking meditation practice, The Wheel of Awareness, and looks in depth at the science that underscores meditation's effectiveness.

GUEST STAN TATKIN: Dr. Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, is a couple therapist known for his pioneering work in helping partners form happy, secure, and long-lasting relationships. His method—called PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy®)—draws on principles of neuroscience and teaches partners to become what he terms “secure-functioning.” Together with his wife, Tracey Boldemann-Tatkin, PhD, Dr. Tatkin founded the PACT Institute to train psychotherapists and other professionals how to incorporate his method into their practices with couples. Therapists from all over the world are being trained in this breakthrough approach. Dr. Tatkin has a private practice in Calabasas, CA, and is an assistant professor at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine, Department of Family Medicine. He is the author of several books, including the bestselling WIRED FOR LOVE and WIRED FOR DATING published by New Harbinger. (Please listen to the podcast episode or read the transcript to hear more explanations, stories and examples.) STAN TATKIN TALKED ABOUT: “Secure Functioning” is being in a relationship that is fully collaborative, fully mutual, and based on justice, fairness, and sensitivity. How a couple protects each other and how they handle stress together. Environmental threats may bring stress to the individuals and the couple, and helping couples regulate the stress through connection and relationship. Family culture – is relationship a priority? If relationship is not important and prioritized, than children often develop some level of insecure attachment. Cultural messages can be misleading and confusing (i.e. “Love yourself before you can love another.”) Couples often lack purpose in their union…why they are together? What is their partnership all about? What are their shared values, agreements, and principles that keep them committed? People with insecure attachment styles tend to behave in ways that are good for the self, but are not good for the relationship. How our neurobiology impacts our perception and memory, which in turn impacts the way we perceive and experience our partners in relationship. Naturally, we tend to have a negativity bias. Prioritizing emotional attunement in relationship. The importance of having loyalty to the couple system that provides a foundation of security, safety, and sustenance for the couple to thrive. ***UPCOMING PODCAST TOPICS*** I would love your input!

Why are relationships so hard? If you're anything like I am you've spent immeasurable time and effort clawing away at romantic relationships that just never seem to work out. For me personally, it's been by far the biggest supplier of grist for the mill. When the offer came across my desk to have Stan on the podcast I immediately jumped on it because I not only wanted to bring his wisdom to you but I also wanted to get into the deep end of my own issues. I got so much out of this one. We talked about the patterns within relationships, our nervous systems, gender roles and history, neurobiology and why that plays a role and techniques for dealing with conflict. Stan is smart, wise, very well educated and compassionate. Check out his site, books and this podcast!
