    "Tick-borne diseases, and Lyme disease in particular, cause complex, multi-system health issues with devastating consequences. This event focuses on the importance of using a broad and comprehensive diagnostic and treatment approach. We will explore important avenues for testing and treatment including a discussion on the role that antibiotics play in supporting the immune system: " Sharon Wampler - Keynoting

    "Can Lifestyle Changes Reverse Alzheimer's Disease? Dr. Dean Ornish, Dr. Bruce Miller, and Dr. Joel Kramer are directing the first randomized controlled trial to determine if the progression of early stage Alzheimer's disease may be reversed by a comprehensive lifestyle medicine program, without drugs, devices, or surgery. This lifestyle medicine program includes a whole foods low-fat, low-sugar plant-based diet;moderate exercise; stress management techniques including meditation; and psychosocial support."

Lyme Ninja Radio - Fight Lyme Disease Like a Ninja - #211: Jason Moore - Founder, Elite... - 1 views

  •  
    About this podcast Sometimes it seems like you need Ninja skills to defeat Lyme disease. Join acupuncturist Mackay Rippey and his producer, Aurora, as they bring you interviews with interesting and informative people who are using their unique skills and knowledge to deal with Lyme and other tick born diseases. My name is Mackay Rippey, I'm an acupuncturist in Clinton, NY (http://www.mackayrippey.com)and the host of Lyme Ninja Radio. I'll never forget the Sunday morning I dragged my sorry-feeling-self to the bathroom and found a perfectly formed bullseye on my left arm. I was lucky, able to return to my acupuncture practice after only few days. It's possible to beat the bacteria that are making you sick. I have and so have many others, but you have to be smarter than Lyme. That's why I created Lyme Ninja Radio. Join us as we talk to some of the most interesting people in the Lyme community.

What is biohacking? The new "science" of optimizing your brain and body. - Vox - 0 views

  •  
    "Biohacking - also known as DIY biology - is an extremely broad and amorphous term that can cover a huge range of activities, from performing science experiments on yeast or other organisms to tracking your own sleep and diet to changing your own biology by pumping a younger person's blood into your veins in the hope that it'll fight aging.

    "LIBERATING THE COLLECTIVE POTENTIAL Geoff Fitch, Tamara Androsoff, and guests - August, 2019" How learning to open to emergence is an act not of will, but of willingness, and how relearning how to play is an essential to allowing something new to emerge among us. Abigail Lynam commenting on the relevance of this work to these times, given the recent mass shootings in the US: "what if the very thing that I yearn for the most is exactly what we all need to get through these times?"

Carnegie Mellon and Lumen Learning Announce EEP-Relevant Collaboration - - 0 views

  • pen Educational Resources (OER) because that's what they do, but there's nothing about RISE that only works with OER. As long as you have the right to modify the curricular materials you are working with—even if that means removing something proprietary and replacing it with something of your own making—then the RISE framework is potentially useful.
  • To achieve this, we propose the Resource Inspection, Selection, and Enhancement (RISE) Framework as a simple framework for using learning analytics to identify open educational resources that are good candidates for improvement efforts.
  • By utilizing this framework, designers can identify resources in their courses that are good candidates for additional improvement efforts.
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • RISE is designed to work with a certain type of common course design, where content and assessment items are both aligned to learning objectives.
  • aligning the course content and assessment questions with specific learning objectives
  • Everybody knows the mantra "correlation is not causation,
  • f we want educators to understand both the value and the limitations of working with data, then they need to have absolute clarity and consistency regarding what those analytics widgets are telling them.
  • This isn't about technology. It's about literacy.
  • They don't need to understand how to do the math, but they do need to understand what the math is doing
  • cloud-based educational research collaboration platform.
  • Lumen Learning is contributing the statistical programming package for RISE that will be imported into Tigris.
  • now they also have an ecosystem
  • CMU is making massive declaration to the world about their seriousness regarding research collaboration.
  • Expect universities to begin adopting LearnSphere
  • With this kind of an ecosystem
  • learning outcome alignment of both content and assessment is critical to enabling the proposed framework.
  • Everybody who teaches with this kind of course design should regularly tune those courses in this way, as should everybody who builds courses that are designed this way.

    "Late last week, Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and Lumen Learning jointly issued a press release announcing their collaboration on an effort to integrate the Lumen-developed RISE analytical framework for curricular materials improvement analysis into the toolkit that Carnegie Mellon announced it will be contributing via open licenses (and unveiling at the Empirical Educator Project (EEP) summit that they are hosting in May)."
