In episode 30 of the biorevolution podcast Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow talk about the human need for self-improvement. We discuss how modern biohacking practices, from diet regimens, to cold exposure, to supplements and DIY cognitive behavioral therapy, dopamine fasting and cortisol detox are entering the mainstream via social media influencers and podcasts and which of those are actually useful for feeling better about ourselves.
In episode 29 of the biorevolution podcast Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow talk about the science of stress and so-called cortisol detox practices. Cortisol is an important stress hormone that regulates many physiological and pathological processes. Chronic deregulation of cortisol can lead to disease. However, while modern humans are indeed very stressed, cortisol detox practices aren’t necessary and might induce more stress than they relieve.
In episode 28 of the biorevolution podcast Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow talk about the science communication. Scientists often need to get our message out, during a pitch, a presentation at a scientific conference or in a grant application. To engage your audience, scientists can take a lead from the story telling principles used in fiction. In this episode we discuss story telling techniques drawing on sources such as Lisa Crohn’s story genius and Ted talks and translate those to scientific communication.
In episode 27 of We’re doomed, We’re saved , the bio revolution podcast Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow talk about the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in drug discovery and development. The pharma industry is struggling with high development costs and failure rates. Can AI help to overcome those challenges, and what is hype and what is reality?
In episode 26 of We’re doomed we’re saved we talk about the future trends in medicine, such as technologization, virtualization, predictive orientation and patient centration. These trends are corroborated by new technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), telemedicine, wearable devices and smart sensors.
