In this episode, featuring Dr. Eric Nestler, offers a fascinating glimpse into the intersection of neuroscience, addiction, and depression. Dr. Nestler explains that both conditions share similar brain mechanisms, particularly within the limbic system, which regulates emotion and motivation. His laboratory’s research delves into how chronic stress or drug exposure alters molecular pathways in these emotional brain regions, leading to maladaptive behaviors. Through advanced techniques like tra...

Paw-sitive Impact: Leading FidoCure’s Fight Against Pet Cancer, Christina Lopes, CEO
In my recent discussion with Christina Lopes, founder of FidoCure and fellow Young Global Leader, we examined a troubling but under-discussed reality: cancer incidence in companion animals is rising sharply. The trend mirrors human oncology—rooted in extended lifespans, environmental exposures, and improved detection—and raises critical questions for both veterinary and human medicine. The epidemiological data are compelling: 1 in 4 dogs will develop neoplasia during their lifetime.Nearly 50%...
