Got patients with extensive skincare routines? They might not be as necessary as they think. This week, we're joined by Dr. Yuval Bibi as he dives into what healthy skin actually needs. Listen in as he discusses "skinese," the reality behind hot water, what irritates the skin, and how cleaning doesn't always mean cleaning. Each Thursday, join Dr. Raja and Dr. Hadar, board-certified dermatologists, as they share the latest evidence-based research in integrative dermatology. For access to CE/CME courses, become a member at LearnSkin.com. Yuval Bibi, MD PhD is a distinguished dermatologist of Israeli origin who currently resides in the United States. He holds certification from the American Board of Dermatology and boasts a diverse range of talents and achievements. Dr. Bibi commenced his academic journey at Ben Gurion University in Beer Sheva, Israel, enrolling in the MD/PhD program. He later ventured to Worcester, Massachusetts, to pursue his research on human papillomavirus related cancer biology and innate immunity at UMass Medical School.   Following his research endeavors, Dr. Bibi embarked on his clinical training as a dermatologist through the combined residency program at Boston University and Tufts University. Boston served as the backdrop for his clinical practice for several years until he made the decision to relocate to Los Angeles, California. The move to California provided him with an opportunity to explore his passion for acting and screenwriting while concurrently nurturing his interest in the realm of minimalistic skincare products. Motivated by this passion, he established his own vegan skincare company, named Dr. Bibi Organics. In early 2021, Dr. Bibi relocated once again, this time to Palm Beach County in South Florida. He continues to serve as a dermatologist in the area, while also actively engaging in various pursuits. These include sharing his knowledge through skincare education, creative writing, expanding his skincare company, and undertaking other ventures. As a clinician, Dr. Bibi possesses particular expertise in scalp dermatology, oral and genital dermatology, as well as nail dermatology, allowing him to provide specialized care to his patients in these areas of focus. Dr. Bibi is the author of “Sick Skin - Skincare Made Simple,” an Amazon bestseller exploring the many fallacies cultivated and abused by the skincare industry, as well as providing a comprehensive skincare guide to understanding the language of one's own skin: “Skinese” and providing for the skin's basic needs in the most cost effective manner.

Virginie Courtier-OrgogozoBiodiversité et écosystèmes (2022-2023)Collège de FranceColloque - Integrating Evolutionary Genetics and Ecology : An Ancestral Balanced Inversion Polymorphism Confers Global AdaptationSince the pioneering work of Dobzhansky in the 1940s, many chromosomal inversions have been identified but how they contribute to adaptation remains poorly understood. In Drosophila melanogaster, the widespread inversion polymorphism In(3R)P is involved in climate adaptation, exhibiting non-neutral latitudinal clines on multiple continents. Here, I summarize new results suggesting that this chromosomal rearrangement represents a long-term (equilibrium) balanced polymorphism of ancestral African origin and that it harbors alleles that are maintained by balancing selection on several continents. Our findings indicate that In(3R)P spread out of its ancestral subtropical/tropical range and then become latitudinally along similar but independent climatic gradients, always being frequent in subtropical/tropical areas but rare or absent in temperate climates.Thomas Flatt is Full Professor of Evolutionary Biology and Head of the Department of Biology at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. Thomas' research interests are the genomic basis of adaptation, population genetics, and the evolution life histories and aging, mainly using Drosophila as a model system. He received his M.Sc. from the University of Basel in 1999 (supervisor: Prof. Stephen Stearns), for work done at the University of Sydney with Prof. Richard Shine, and his Ph.D. from Fribourg in 2004 (supervisor: Prof. Tadeusz Kawecki). Between 2004 and 2008, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Brown University with Prof. Marc Tatar and a visiting postdoc with Prof. Neal Silverman at UMass Medical School, funded by fellowships from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) and the Roche Research Foundation. Prior to taking up his position in Fribourg in 2017, he was a SNSF Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolution at Lausanne (2012-17), a Fellow at the Wissenschaftskolleg Berlin (2012), a faculty member of the Vienna Graduate School of Population Genetics and a tenured group leader at the Institute of Population Genetics in Vienna (2009-12). Between 2018 and 2021 he held a DFG Mercator Fellowship and Visiting Professorship at the University of Münster. He has been serving on numerous editorial, advisory and reviewing panels and, with Josefa Gonzalez (Barcelona), co-leads an international consortium of researchers, the European Drosophila Population Genomics Consortium (DrosEU). He currently serves as an elected member of the National Research Council, the scientific body of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF).

Synopsis: Joel Schneider, Ph.D. and Robert Kotin, Ph.D. are the President & CEO and Founder & Chief Technology Advisor, respectively, of Carbon Biosciences, an emerging leader in the development of novel parvovirus-derived gene therapies. Joel and Robert sit down with host Rahul Chaturvedi to discuss the arc of their careers, how the AAV field has changed over the last decade, and how they approach building out their team at Carbon. They also talk about Carbon's focus on cystic fibrosis and the implications of The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation investing in their Series A. Finally, they both weigh in on what excites them when thinking about the future of gene therapy. Biographies: Dr. Joel Schneider joined Carbon as CEO in 2022, after serving as Chief Operating Officer at Solid Biosciences. As Solid's first employee, he played an instrumental role in building the company's unique disease-focused business model. Dr. Schneider is an accomplished biosciences executive with a track record of achievement in identifying, developing, and financing high potential therapeutic modalities and has diverse leadership experiences across R&D, technical and corporate operations, and corporate development organizations. Dr. Schneider holds a Ph.D. from Rutgers University and an undergraduate degree from Brandeis University and is the author of numerous peer-reviewed articles related to Duchenne and stem cell biology. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard University in the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology, where he characterized and developed the small molecules that enhance skeletal muscle regeneration. Dr. Robert Kotin has been a leader in adeno-associated virus (AAV) research for 35 years, focusing on the molecular biology of the virus's non-structural proteins and then leveraging this understanding to develop novel AAV vectors for somatic cell gene therapy. Beginning as a postdoctoral fellow at Cornell University Medical Center, Dr. Kotin discovered a common integration site for AAV DNA in human chromosome 19, which he designated AAVS1 locus. He spent most of his career in the Intramural Research Program at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), first as a tenure-track investigator and then as a tenured senior investigator and Head of the Laboratory of Molecular Biology and Gene Therapy. While at the NIH, Dr. Kotin's laboratory invented and developed a scalable recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) production process in Sf9 cells which was licensed by UniQure, ThermoFisher, Voyager, Biomarin, and others and was used to produce Glybera™, the first rAAV product granted regulatory agency approval for sale. Additional research from the Kotin lab resulted in the discovery of an AAV replicative product that has been described as closed-ended linear duplex DNA (ceDNA) and became the basis of the non-viral gene therapy company Generation Bio (NASDAQ: GBIO). Dr. Kotin served as vice president of virology and gene therapy at Voyager Therapeutics from 2014 to 2016. Since 2016, he has served as an adjunct professor at UMass Medical School, where his research interests include vectorizing and characterizing ancestral parvoviruses based on inferred sequences from endogenous virus elements (EVEs) as novel gene therapy vectors. Dr. Kotin earned his B.A. in biology from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and his doctorate in microbiology from Rutgers University and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (now Robert Wood Johnson Medical School).

— You already know what it means to live a fulfilling life. You may have had glimpses of this inner knowing and clarity after meditation or other activities like skiing or playing music that help us to return to ourselves. In these moments we are present, connected, creative, and open to possibilities. However, once we step back into the fast-paced world, our default habits - to rush and react - kick back in. We feel tempted to return to the comfort of what's familiar and easy, even though the outcomes are not ultimately healthy or fulfilling. We know that we're not leading a fulfilling life when we don't have enough energy, time, or whatever it takes to make meaningful choices—be it at home, work, school, or in relationships. Instead, we can train ourselves to return to ourselves – to the field of non-judging awareness within us. In returning to ourselves, we reconnect with what's present, what's important, and our potential. The possibilities that exist in this vast, open field of awareness are endless. Mindfulness empowers us to come back to ourselves, again and again, so we may see more clearly and have the courage to take intentional steps, even amidst chaos and uncertainty.  Valeria Teles interviews Dr. Shalini Bahl — is a mindfulness coach, an award-winning researcher, keynote speaker, and Certified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Search Inside Yourself teacher.

In Episode 021 of A Medicinal Mind: Wisdom and Wellbeing, we get into the world of mindfulness, meditation and the capacity of these practices, to relieve suffering and promote flourishing with founder of the Long Island Center for Mindfulness, Cory Muscara.   To put it simply, Cory is one of the most fascinating people I have ever met. While we are all unique, yet paradoxically all of one collective whole, Cory's background and experiences are quite astonishing.   Cory Muscara is the founder of the Long Island Center for Mindfulness, where he utilizes his extensive professional training in Mindfulness, Positive Psychology, and Integrative Health Coaching to facilitate a client's creation of, and movement toward, their optimal vision of health and wellbeing.   Cory has undergone professional training to integrate mindfulness within healthcare, schools, and businesses, through teacher training programs in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) at UMass Medical School with Jon Kabat-Zinn, Mindful Schools, Search Inside Yourself, and Breathworks Chronic Pain. He has completed his Integrative Health Coach training at Duke Integrative Medicine, is a 200-Hour Certified Yoga Instructor, and holds a Masters degree in Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) from the University of Pennsylvania. In 2012, Cory spent six months in silence practicing mindfulness meditation 14+ hours a day as a Buddhist Monk in Southeast Asia. The experience taught him how powerful mindfulness can be as a transformative practice for cultivating greater peace, clarity, wisdom, and wellbeing in one's life, and became the inspiring force behind his mission to share this work with others. Cory currently serves as faculty at Columbia Teachers College where he teaches mindfulness to school leaders and principals, and is an assistant instructor for the Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) at the University of Pennsylvania, where he completed his graduate work. Cory has presented mindfulness to organizations such as Johnson & Johnson, Travelers, Prudential Insurance; universities such as NYU, Wharton Business School, and Dartmouth; a number of hospitals and healthcare systems in the New York area; and he regularly appears on the Dr. Oz show as a guest expert in the topic of mindfulness meditation. Cory's teachings and work with students stem from a deep passion for helping others, and personal experience with the transformative power of mindfulness, coaching, and positive psychology. He looks forward to helping you realize the same benefits he and his students have come to experience through this work.     Formally speaking, Cory has undergone professional training to integrate mindfulness within healthcare, schools, and businesses, through teacher training programs in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) at UMass Medical School with Jon Kabat-Zinn, Mindful Schools, Search Inside Yourself, and Breathworks Chronic Pain. He has completed his Integrative Health Coach training at Duke Integrative Medicine, is a 200-Hour Certified Yoga Instructor, and holds a Masters degree in Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) from the University of Pennsylvania.   Positive Yoga Coaching anyone?   And just to make things interesting, in 2012, Cory spent six months in silence practicing mindfulness meditation 14+ hours a day as a Buddhist Monk in Southeast Asia. The experience taught him how powerful mindfulness can be as a transformative practice for cultivating greater peace, clarity, wisdom, and wellbeing in one's life, and became the inspiring force behind his mission to share this work with others.   In our show, Cory and I have a curious discussion about mindfulness and meditation. What in the world do we mean when we say mindfulness anyway?   Cory reflects on his background and rather remarkable course to get to his current work with the Long Island Center for Mindfulness.   As part of the discussion, Cory lays out in exquisite detail, some of his approaches to cultivating a meditative practice with others, providing one of the most insightful practical examples I have ever heard when it comes to describing the meditative experience.   Digging deeper, I push Cory to explore the word spirituality and ask him to draw upon his unique experiences to share his views of the world “spirituality” and perhaps what we should adopt as a more unifying collective perspective.   Not wanting to forget the medical applications, Cory shares some of his knowledge having trained as a health coach incorporating principles of mindfulness and positive psychology into his work. In the end, we conclude the discussion exploring Cory's work expanding the practices of mindfulness and meditation with youth and the family environment.   Cory even closes the show with one of the best endings we have had to date, perhaps only second to the hauntingly beautiful story told by my mentor Dr. Greg Gelburd at the end of Episode 010.   I am so excited to share this conversation with you and incredibly grateful to have connected with Cory, thanks again to the thoughtfulness of another previous podcast guest, our resident positive Mapster Grace Cormier.   And don't worry, Cory and Grace will certainly be back for more discussions and we further unpack the power of positive psychology coupled with a dedicated mindfulness practice.   If you enjoy the show, please don't forget to share your thoughts as part of a review in I-Tunes.
