Interactive immune systems are at the center of cancer and other diseases. Dr. Matthew Krummel explores some lesser-known functions of the immune system related to memory making, arteriosclerosis, and gut health. Series: "Mini Medical School for the Public" [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 36205]

Little-Known Jobs of the Immune System (They Are a Big Deal)

Interactive immune systems are at the center of cancer and other diseases. In this excerpt Dr. Matthew Krummel explores how the immune system recognizes and remembers harmful bacteria. Series: "Mini Medical School for the Public" [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 36149]

Bad Bacteria and Adaptive Immunity

People with allergies know that daily weather determines symptoms. Dr. Katherine Gunding explores how climate change is contributing to higher pollen counts and longer pollen seasons. Also, mold allergens that can cause severe asthma and respiratory symptoms are seen with rising sea levels, after hurricanes or with increased humidity.

Impacts of Our Changing Climate on Allergic Respiratory Disease

Stephen Hedrick, a leader in immunology research, takes us through an introduction of epidemiology as a whole, the theory underlying pandemics, and what we can expect based on what we've experienced in the past. Particularly relevant today, we'll learn if COVID-19 will ever go away, why we need a vaccine and what will happen if we don't obtain one based on history. Learn how science can help us prevent and prepare for the next outbreak. [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 35990]

Epidemic Diseases: Our Constant Companion

Hollis King and Michael Kurisu, both osteopathic physicians (DO's) at UC San Diego, describe how osteopathy is a hands-on medical treatment that focuses on the structure and function of the whole body, not just symptoms of disease or pain. As they explain to host Paul J. Mills, doctors of osteopathy learn the same curriculum as traditional medical students, but they approach their patients with a more integrative philosophy of healthcare.

On our current trajectory, 300 million excess deaths will occur due to antibiotic resistance to by 2050. What can be done change our path and stop superbugs in their tracks? Victor Nizet, MD discusses the roots and scope of the problem as well as novel solutions. Series: "Exploring Ethics" [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 31545]

The Antibiotic Resistance Crisis - Exploring Ethics

Jeffrey P. Harris, MD, PhD, FACS joins William Mobley, MD, PhD for a wide-ranging discussion about the field of otolaryngology. With his background in immunology, Dr. Harris has pioneered new methods of drug delivery to the inner ear. As a surgeon, he did the first cochlear implant surgery in San Diego county and continues to work with the technology as it advances. He discusses current treatments for inner ear problems and looks to the future - including treatments for HPV-related facial cancers, regenerating hair cells in cases of hearing loss, the brain's response to cochlear implants and more.

Inner Ear Treatments Cochlear Implants Hearing Loss and More: Advances in Otolaryngology with Jeffrey P. Harris - On Our Mind

Dr. Homer Boushey discusses the links between pet ownership and protection against allergies. The hygiene hypothesis, the notion that modern cleanliness causes a lack of stimulation of the immune system in early development, suggests that modern cleanliness makes children more vulnerable to allergies.
