"Mayo Clinic has launched a new initiative to collect and analyze patient data from remote monitoring devices and diagnostic tools and to use artificial intelligence to accelerate diagnoses and disease prediction. The goal is to help physicians make better, faster and more accurate diagnoses and detect diseases even before symptoms develop, said John Halamka, M.D., a physician and president of Mayo Clinic Platform."

This is the Arete Coach Podcast where we explore the art and science of executive coaching with host Severin Sorensen. Our guest is Ozzie Gontang, Ph.D., Executive Coach, Master Coach, and Vistage COPE Award Winner (2001). Ozzie's path to executive coaching came through his work as a marathoner, counselor, and psychotherapist. He transitioned to executive coach and executive peer group leader being awarded Vistage's highest honor, the Cope Award in 2001.

Just listened to the conversation with Ozzie Gontang. Don't miss it. A small dose of Oz is worth the time!

"There's so much about the human brain that continues to baffle and mystify our top medical researchers, but one aspect of its complex design is starting to come into focus. Contrary to previous widely held beliefs, the human brain exists in a perpetual state of constant change. The documentary The Brain That Changes Itself explores these groundbreaking findings as heralded in a book of the same title by psychiatrist and researcher Dr. Norman Doidge."

"Agile science is: people-centered as it is grounded in the real-world needs of individuals.   success-oriented as we ground all evaluation and optimization on clearly defined criteria of success.   efficiently  rigorous via the classic scientific concept of triangulation. We strive to clarify the most important assumption being made at a given moment and then evaluate it as efficiently and rigorously as possible. We then iterate and test again, often with a complementary but also efficient method for the stage of the process to balance strengths/limitations of the approaches." Eric Hekler, Ph.D. Associate Professor Department of Family Medicine & Public Health Director, Center for Wireless & Population Health Systems

Eric Heckler's comment ACTION-TARGETED STUDIES: For these studies, the focus is more on vetting if an action is "worth it" for a person. An example of this is Sayali's dissertation, http://www.hack-your-health.org/.

"Evidence-based medicine is increasingly the primary way in which individuals are receiving care and support. Advocates for the approach (Sackets et al 1996) defined evidence-based medicine as: "

Camille, "The reason I wanted to include ethnographic research was to document the organic evolution of Apollo and the PHE including successes, mistakes, progress, setbacks, and other trivial and/or monumental aspects of what we are doing. I would like to have this anthropological history be of use to us as part of our learning process moving forward; however, it may also be something we would want to share with others via a publication or blog post. Due to the latter, we should have an approved IRB protocol for conducting this work as it fits under the "field work" type of research. "

This YouTube Edition should work! Here is the 'on the fly' video of our encounter with Master Lu. Jan wore the gut monitor for the short session in Oceanside. She followed up with a much longer (1 hour) session with Master Lu two days later. She was able to walk without a cane for the first time during those sessions. Subsequently she has been able to walk (in PT) barefoot without a cane.

I'll be posting some video of Janice walking shortly after seeing Master Lui (soon). ~ Dennis

"UC San Diego medical researchers have for the first time used 3D printing technology to create a spinal cord and implant it with neural stem cells into rats with spinal cord injuries, the university announced Monday."

"In 2009, Ms. Leon went to the WomenHeart Science and Leadership Symposium at the Mayo Clinic, where she met Dr. Sharonne N. Hayes, a professor of cardiovascular medicine at Mayo. At that time, the largest study on SCAD included 43 patients. "I walked up to Dr. Hayes and told her we had 70 people, and we wanted research," Ms. Leon recalled. "She was like, 'Wow.'" "Everything I learned about SCAD in my medical training was wrong," Dr. Hayes said. By 2010, with the help of Dr. Hayes, and subsequently SCAD Research Inc., an organization founded by Bob Alico, who lost his wife to SCAD, Dr. Hayes devised an innovative way to do research, using online networks of far-flung patients and analyzing genetic and clinical data. "We never imagined there would be 1,000 female patients in our virtual registry," Dr. Hayes said."

Sharon, telling your story this article is an act of bravery and determination. Your strength is an inspiration.
