Hemal Patel - philosophy, meditation and science. Performance Around The Clock episode 35.
Welcome to episode 35 of the Performance Around the Clock podcast. We’re joined by Dr. Hemal Patel, a distinguished Professor and Vice-Chair for Research in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and a VA Research Career Scientist. Holding a Ph.D. in Pharmacology and Toxicology, Dr. Patel's extensive research career has focused on caveolin and mitochondrial biology. In this episode, he discusses the critical role of cell membranes and mitochondria in cellular energy and disease, highlighting how his lab developed a non-invasive blood-based assay for mitochondrial function. This innovative assay, developed through the NASA Twin Study, can assess overall energetic health and disease states without invasive biopsies. Dr. Patel also shares his work on the therapeutic potential of the protein caveolin in conditions like heart disease and neurodegeneration (ALS, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's), and how his recent research has expanded to explore the mind-body connection through the transformative work of Dr. Joe Dispenza. We also talk about how his longtime interest in philosophy and religion has influenced his life and career. Please join us for an wonderful conversion between Dr. Panda and Dr. Patel.

Susan Golden - cyanobacteria and circadian rhythms. Performance Around the Clock episode 33.
Welcome to the Performance Around the Clock podcast. In this episode, Dr. Satchin Panda welcomes one of his scientific heroes, Dr. Susan Golden. Dr. Golden is a pillar in the circadian and cyanobacteria science community and the former director for the Center for Circadian Biology at UC San Diego. She shares her journey from studying gene regulation in cyanobacteria to understanding the circadian clock through this unique organism. Learn how these ancient blue-green algae were instrumental in the oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere and how tools developed to study cyanobacteria led to groundbreaking discoveries. Beyond her research, Dr. Golden also made significant contributions to circadian rhythm education, teaching countless undergraduate students over the years.

John Newman and Brianna Stubbs - ketones and aging. Performance Around the Clock ep32.
In our last episode from the 2024 Gerontology Society of America (GSA) Annual Scientific Meeting in Seattle, we are honored to host Dr. John Newman and Dr. Brianna Stubbs, both experts in ketone metabolism and aging. Dr. Newman is a geriatrician and researcher at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging and in the Division of Geriatrics at UCSF. His research focuses on how ketone bodies, small molecules that our bodies make for energy during fasting or exercise, also work as molecular signals to control inflammation and gene expression. Dr. Brianna Stubbs is an expert in exogenous ketone metabolism and the Director of Translational Science at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging. She's a former competitive rower and two-time world champion, and she completed her PhD in metabolic physiology at the University of Oxford, where she studied the metabolic effects of ketone esters. Learn all about their work translating ketone research into the field. If you like this episode or podcast, please like, comment or follow. Thank you for listening.

Nathan LaBrasseur - senescence and aging. Performance Around the Clock episode 31.
Coming from the 2024 Gerontology Society of America (GSA) Annual Scientific Meeting in Seattle, we are excited to welcome Dr. Nathan LaBrasseur for the 31st episode of the Performance Around the Clock podcast. Dr. LaBrasseur is the director of the Robert and Arlene Kogod Center on Aging at the Mayo Clinic and an expert on senescence and aging. He's an author of the book "Mayo Clinic on Healthy Aging: An Easy and Comprehensive Guide to Keeping Your Body Young, Your Mind Sharp and Your Spirit Fulfilled" an updated guide on healthy aging. In this episode, learn about the latest in aging and senescence particularly therapeutics for senescent cells - senotherapeutics. Senotherapeutics can be broken down into senolytics which selectively kill senescent cells and senomorphics which suppress senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) to reduce the negative effects of senescence.
