Data, predictive analytics, dynamic communications and digital twins make up the virtual landscape of modern dairy farms. Bringing it all together into a comprehensive platform for some of the largest cattle operations in the world is veterinarian, computer engineer and entrepreneur, Shari van de Pol, polymath and Founder of CATTLEytics. “Dairy farmers we work with are some of the most incredible, innovative, understanding, hard-working people out there, and that’s one of the reasons I love doing what I do,” Shari says. In this episode of the Frontier Entrepreneurship Podcast, co-hosts Braden Kemp and Tracy Morningstar explore how Shari and her team successfully introduce advanced technologies into the dairy industry.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
