On a summit recently, I learned our brains are always trying to understand things. This thought was mind-blowing for me. Think of it. Your mind is like a scientist trying its best to understand the world. But that doesn’t mean it always gets things right. Sometimes fear draws a curtain over the truth. Sometimes we get a small picture and create an entire story around it. Sometimes what you are feeling in your body isn’t some disease waiting to reveal itself. Sometimes it’s stress, sadness or anxiety. Your brain is doing its best to understand what you’re going through. But it’s not always get...

Healthcare In Estonia: Where Grandmas Go For Genetic Data
Imagine a country where citizens will have their genetic profiles integrated into the digital health system with individual risk scores and pharmacogenomic information, so when they go to the doctor, they will get fully personalized, genetic risk-based diagnosis, medication, and preventive measures. That’s where healthcare in Estonia will arrive soon. They started to build their digital health system 20 years ago, and within the next years, the Baltic country will start to reap the benefits of a transparent, blockchain-based, digital health system hooked on genetic data. The first fully digitized republic certainly sets ...

La Cagouille ’s Sea Scallops with Warm Vinaigrette a.k.a What to do with Those Chives
This potted chive has survived every winter since I first planted it over 20 years ago, and is always the first plant to return in spring to our terrace herb garden. A few years ago, it sent some seed over to another pot, which now joins in its spring awakening. I’m forever amazed at it’s stamina and stability, not to mention those delightful purple flowers. This evening, looking for a recipe to enjoy this little spring harvest with more than just my eyes and nose, I picked up one of my favorite cookbooks, The Paris Cookbook. by Patricia Wells. I’ve loved Patricia’s books ever since Jeffrey Mill...

Small Emperor in the house
You will have spotted by now, my current fixation on the Small Emperor moth, Saturnia pavonia. It’s Britain’s only resident member of the Saturniidae family (related to the Silkworm moth). I have a pheromone lure that has some (6Z,11Z)-hexadeca-6,11-dien-1-yl acetate on it, which I bought from Anglian Lepidopterist Supplies. It took me a while to track down the name of that sex pheromone, exuded by the less colourful, night-flying females, to attract the colourful, day-flying males. I had photographed one or two on the wing but used a homemade butterfly net to catch the specimen you see above. I let it chill o...

Three Weeks Broken
Here ’s a fun fact that I just recently learned. When they (the people who make up such things, almost certainly with a clipboard in hand) determine survival rates for people who survive procedures such as open heart surgery, they don’t just count those who made it off the table and back to their roo ms. For some major categories, they actually measure the rate of survival for thirty days, beginning with the surgery and ending with the cake decorated with“ONE MONTH DEATH-FREE, WOO!” in heart-healthy icing on top.So this is perhaps a bit premature. Watch for a posthumous“edited to add: Oops, never mind, yikes…...

An Outline of the OncoAge Consortium
The OncoAge consortium is a scientific interest group focused on the overlap between cancer and aging. Like many factions in the broader aging research community, its members are apparently giving cellular senescence a great deal of their attention these days. Better late than never, I'd say, but this focus is arguably less of an example of scrambling to catch up in their case than for purely aging-focused researchers. After all, the cancer research community studied cellular senescence to a significant degree well prior to the 2011 proof of concept study that finally persuaded gerontologists that accumulation of senescenc...

8 Ways to Create the Love You Want
Motivational speaker Tony Robbins once said that “We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love.” While the initial phase of a relationship seems effortless, the sublime chemical release of early love will only get us so far. Eventually, if we want the partnership to endure, we have to roll up our sleeves and start to sweat. My husband and I recently attended a marriage retreat where we heard from couples who have survived affairs, medical problems, family feuds, and other kinds of heartbreaks and hurdles that are left out of the pages of fairy tales. Their crushing stories ins...

Did you catch the aging #10yearchallenge on Facebook and other social media outlets? If not, you can learn more about it in this article. It’s fun to see how we’ve aged over a decade. But wouldn’t it also be neat to see what things we learned in ten years? It’s all the things you’ve garnered that can’t be captured on film. Instead of how many wrinkles or white hair we’ve earned, what if we catalogued the items that can’t be picked up in a photograph, things like wisdom, and greater self-acceptance? If you haven’t gotten there yet. It’s not too late. Our posts th...

Choosing Effective, Sticky Health Apps (Part 2)
In a blog post last week, I shared an excerpt from the new book that Paul Cerrato and I just completed,The Transformative Power of Mobile Medicine. Here is a second excerpt from Chapter 3,  “Exploring the Strengths and Weaknesses of Mobile Health Apps.”Even patients who are fully engaged in their own care still need access to medical apps they can trust. The IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science has performed a detailed analysis of the clinical evidence supporting mobile health apps, rating their maturity and relative quality. Its rating scale places a single observational study near the bottom of the scale,...

Dander Up, Down, and All Around
Today ' s topics: VA health care politics; a clear-eyed and sane report from a bastion of managerialism, with related observations on innovators trying to create real bottom-up value.It ' s the last day of the year, so let ' s get this done. Owing to various largely unforeseen challenges, happily now largely behind us, this " Dander " series was interrupted for some time. Apologies to anyone who noticed. In any case, to refresh: as Chief Blogger and FIRM president Dr. Poses has indicated often enough in these pages, health care developments raising our dander are still everywhere, all the time, and on the increas...
