Paul Marik was a tenured professor of Medicine, and chief of the division of pulmonary and critical care medicine at the University of Virginia Medical School.The pattern of blocking effective, safe, generic medications is clearly evident in the story of Umberto Meduri, an excellent physician and researcher who made a remarkable discovery about inflammation of the lung, and a safe and effective treatment with the potential to save hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of lives annually across the globe. The one problem: the drug in question was out of patent. Instead of receiving a Nobel Prize, Dr. Meduri had his career destroyed, and his reputation ruined with pure propaganda.

​In this episode, CSIS Senior Associate Jeffrey L. Sturchio speaks with Kathleen McManus, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases and International Health at the University of Virginia Medical School, about what still needs to be done to achieve the ambitious goal of ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the United States. Professor McManus discusses how inequalities are driving HIV transmission and how they still affect vulnerable populations disproportionately, drawing on her experiences treating HIV patients in the Ryan White clinic at the University of Virginia. She also explores how the complicated and bewildering patchwork system of uneven coverage and access to HIV prevention and treatment services in the US healthcare system presents barriers to care and treatment for key populations at risk of HIV infection. The podcast concludes with Professor McManus's reflections on what needs to be done at the state and local levels to translate the policy prescriptions of the US National HIV/AIDS strategy into service delivery programs that leave no one behind. 

This week I am talking to Dr Bruce Greyson about his book 'After: A Skeptical Scientist's Journey to Understand Life, Death, and Beyond'. In After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal About Life and Beyond, one of the world's leading experts on near-death experiences shares the lessons he has learned over nearly a half century of studying near-death experiences. Backed by decades of pioneering scientific research and captivating first-hand accounts, Dr. Greyson reveals the evidence that led him to rethink his understanding of the nature of life, death, and the continuity of consciousness. Although NDEs reveal a lot about dying and what might come after, they reveal as much about life and living, about the value of compassion and our interconnectedness with one another, and about what makes a life meaningful and fulfilling. After invites us to open our minds to these experiences, and in so doing, expand our understanding of what it means to be human. Bruce Greyson is the Chester F. Carlson Professor of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences and Director of the Division of Perceptual Studies at the University of Virginia Medical School. He graduated from Cornell University with a major in psychology in 1968, received his medical degree from the State University of New York Upstate Medical College in 1973, and subsequently completed his psychiatric residency at the University of Virginia. He held faculty appointments and taught psychiatry at the University of Michigan (1978-1984) and the University of Connecticut (1984-1995), where he was Clinical Chief of Psychiatry, before returning to the University of Virginia, where he has continued to teach and practice psychiatry and carry out research since 1995. One of the founding members of the International Association for Near-Death Studies, Dr. Greyson served on its Board of Directors and as its President and Director of Research. For the past 26 years, he has edited the Journal of Near-Death Studies, and was the senior editor of The Near-Death Experience: Problems, Prospects, Perspectives (Charles C Thomas, 1984), co-author of Irreducible Mind: Toward a Psychology for the 21st Century (Rowman & Littlefield, 2007), and co-editor of the forthcoming The Handbook of Near-Death Experiences: Thirty Years of Investigation (Praeger, 2009). His near-death research for the past three decades has focused on the aftereffects of the experience, and have resulted in more than 75 presentations to national and international scientific conferences, 100 publications in academic medical and psychological journals, and several research grants and awards. https://www.amazon.com/After-Doctor-Explores-Near-Death-Experiences-ebook/dp/B08BYDT3KL/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1613293764&sr=8-1 https://www.brucegreyson.com/ https://teespring.com/en-GB/stores/the-past-lives-podcast https://www.patreon.com/pastlivespodcast

The Outer Limits of Inner Truth Explores Why Some Children Remember Their Previous Life Incarnation For the first time ever, we do a Forensic Soul Analysis on Cathy Bryd and her son Christian – both of whom shared a historic past life as mother & son. In addition, we offer tips, insights, and advice to parents who believe their kids may be remembering or are being affected by an earlier life incarnation. Featuring (In Order of Appearance) Tom Shroder / Author of   is the author of the book “The Boy Who Knew Too Much,” Extended Bios Tom Shroder Tom Shroder is an award-winning journalist, editor, and author of . His most recent book, “The Most Famous Writer Who Ever Lived: A True Story of My Family,” an investigation into the life of his grandfather, Pulitzer Prize winning author MacKinlay Kantor. Book critic Susan Cheever said, “In writing a history that is also a meditation on writing, Shroder has created a book that is as useful as it is fascinating.” Shroder is also the author of “Acid Test: LSD, Ecstasy, and the Power to Heal,” selected as a Washington Post notable book of 2014. His earlier book, the best-selling “Old Souls,” is a classic study of the intersection between mysticism and science. Shroder is also co-author, with former oil rig captain John Konrad, of “Fire on the Horizon,the Untold Story of the Gulf Oil Disaster.” Sebastian Junger, author of “War” and “The Perfect Storm,” says of Fire on the Horizon, “It’s one of the best disaster books I’ve ever read.. . I tore through it like a novel, but with the queasy knowledge that the whole damn thing is true. A phenomenal feat of journalism.” As editor of The Washington Post Magazine, he conceived and edited two Pulitzer Prize-winning feature stories. His most recent editing project, “Overwhemed: Work, Love, and Play When No One Has the Time,” by Brigid Schulte, was a New York Times bestseller. In addition to being an author and editor of narrative journalism, Shroder is one of the foremost editors of humor in the country. He has edited humor columns by Dave Barry, Gene Weingarten and Tony Kornheiser, as well as conceived and launched the internationally syndicated comic strip, Cul de Sac, by Richard Thompson. With humorist Barry and novelists Carl Hiaasen and Elmore Leonard, he concocted and edited “Naked Came the Manatee,” a satirical serial novel. Cathy Byrd Cathy Byrd is the author of the book “The Boy Who Knew Too Much,” which was released by Hay House on March 21, 2017. The movie rights for this remarkable story have recently been purchased by 20th Century Fox and producer DeVon Franklin who created the movies “Heaven is for Real” and “Miracles from Heaven.” Cathy is a residential real estate broker and mother of two young children who never had aspirations of becoming a writer until her two-year-old son began sharing memories of being a baseball player in the 1920s and ‘30s. What makes this story even more fascinating is that Byrd’s son Christian Haupt has been touted by the international media as being a baseball prodigy since the age of two when he was discovered on YouTube by Adam Sandler for a baseball-playing cameo role in the movie “That’s My Boy.” Shortly after his fourth birthday, Christian became the youngest person to ever throw a ceremonial first pitch at a Major League baseball game and his YouTube baseball videos have now been viewed by more than 15 million people. Christian’s case has been studied by Dr. Jim Tucker from the University of Virginia Medical School department of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences. Dr. Tucker has continued the research on children’s past-life memories that was originally started by Dr. Ian Stevenson in 1967. The University of Virginia now has over 2,500 documented cases of children who remember past lives on file.

Controversy exists as to whether these women should be eligible to compete in various events.  Dr. Alan Rogol, University of Virginia Medical School, Chief and Member of the American Board of Pediatrics, Sub-board in Endocrinology, advisor to the United States Anti-Doping Agency or USADA, and author of 600 scientific publications, discusses the concept of sex, testosterone and eligibility.     There have been a number of cases in which the sex of an elite female athlete has been questioned.  If a person is considered female at birth, raised as a female, and identifies as a female, why should they be disallowed to compete as a female in athletic events?  Is there really a natural testosterone level that should be used as a cutoff for eligibility to compete?  Other, genetic conditions exist which appear to confer advantages on male athletes, but they have not been disqualified from participation.     "We are talking about women athletes with naturally occurring levels of testosterone, totally separate and distinct from the issue of doping." – Dr. Alan Rogol      Connect with Therese:   Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net  Twitter: @CritiSpeak       Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Tom Jelinek earned his PhD in 1993 from McMaster University, studying cellular regulatory processes. He then joined the Cancer Center at the University of Virginia Medical School, where he furthered his studies on the mechanisms of cell signaling. At age 51, Tom was diagnosed with type II diabetes, with a blood glucose reading of 325 mg/dl (18 mM). But instead of turning to medication, he returned to his roots, and began to ask what went wrong, and whether it could be cured by reversing what went wrong. The result was a halving of blood glucose in under a month, and full reversal of diabetes in under three months. Listen in today as Jimmy and Dr. Jelinek talk about: How he came to write his book Goodbye, Pills & Needles: A Total Re-Think of Type II Diabetes. And A 90 Day Cure How he learned to go against the grain of mainstream opinion How medicine fundamentally misunderstands what insulin is Type I versus Type II Diabetes What happens to glucose, after drugs force reluctant cells to take it up  Metformin, and what it really does Heart Disease, and the current guidelines. Blood pressure, and how type II diabetes affects it The cancer risk of excessive glucose The attitudes of the medical system and more "Saying the function of insulin is to remove glucose from the blood is like saying the function of your gas pedal is to remove fuel from the car's tank." – Dr. Tom Jelinek

Dr. Eddie Copelin II served in Iraq as part of the US Marine Corps Reserves. So when he returned from overseas and decided to pursue a degree in medicine at the American University of Antigua (AUA) College of Medicine, he was disappointed to learn that an outdated U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) policy prohibited him from carrying out the clinical training of his medical school education at any of the many VA Hospitals in the United States.“It was disappointing,” said Dr. Copelin. “I’m a veteran and I was in a position to help other veterans and I couldn’t.”The VA operates the nation’s largest integrated health care system, with more than 1,700 medical facilities nationwide. While international medical school graduates are permitted to work as residents in VA hospitals, medical students are prohibited from training in clerkships at VA hospitals. Medical students spend the last two years of their medical education in clinical settings at hospitals.Neal Simon, the President of AUA says this should change. “It should change because nothing better prepares a physician for success in a particular hospital or field of medicine than doing their training in the environment where they hope to practice.”According to the agency’s most recent data, 526,000 veterans are waiting more than a month for care. Furthermore, about 88,000 of them are waiting more than three months. The physician shortage seen at VA hospitals reflects a growing dilemma happening nationwide.According to a Kaiser Family Foundation report, California is meeting just 62% of its primary care physician needs. Florida is only meeting about 41% of its needs.As the physician shortage grows and U.S. based medical schools are unable to train enough qualified students to fit the demand, international medical schools are increasingly filling this critical gap. Since 2012, the number of graduates of international medical schools (IMGs) who obtained residencies in the US has risen by almost 25 percent.Another area of increasing interest to those in the medical profession is the lack of diversity among physicians. Nowhere is it more apparent than in a 2016 University of Virginia Medical School study. In the study it was revealed that white medical students believed that black patients feel less pain than their white counterparts. How is this bias impacting treatment?AUA is committed to addressing these issues. 20% of AUA’s students are African-American compared with less than 7% at US-based medical schools. Furthermore 76% of AUA’s graduates pursue primary care residencies. This is significantly higher than US-based medical schools.“We are also proud to say that many have gone on to practices in the areas where they are most needed like rural communities and inner cities” said Neal Simon.Dr. Copelin is now a 2nd year internal medicine resident at Roger Williams Medical Center, an affiliate of the Boston University School of Medicine. Ironically, the facility is right across the street from Rhode Island’s VA hospital. “As a Marine I had to deal with the VA medical system firsthand. It was incredibly difficult to get an appointment. It simply doesn’t make sense not to offer clerkships to qualified international medical school students. It would decrease the workload for those presently in the system, provide much needed medical care for those in need, and prepare a new cadre of physicians for generations to come. It would be a win-win situation.”air date: 5/26/17

We’re joined by Charles Tart, one of the founders of the branch of psychology known as transpersonal psychology. Dr. Tart’s life work has to do with putting forward an “evidence-based spirituality for the 21st century.” In this conversation we explore the evidence that he explored for phenomena like reincarnation, as well as the “big five” of telepathy, clairvoyance, pre-cognition, psychokinesis, and psychic healing. With all of these phenomena Charles warns about adopting a “scientistic”—as opposed to scientific—view of reality, which says that none of those things can be real, simply because they don’t fit into the mainstream view of materialism. Instead, he suggests, we should be looking at the evidence and letting it shape our understanding of reality. Episode Links: Charles T.
