While smoking remains a key risk factor for lung cancer, up to 25 percent of cases occur in people who have never smoked, leaving significant gaps in our understanding of causation and diagnostics. Dr. Paola Marignani explores emerging discoveries in gene variants unique to never-smokers, uncovered through single-cell RNA sequencing and machine learning. Dr. Marignani is a Profess...
Single-cell RNA sequencing is transforming our understanding of tumor heterogeneity in primary lung cancers by offering insights far beyond traditional bulk sequencing. In this program, Dr. Paola Marignani explores how advanced machine learning enables faster, more precise profiling of genetic diversity, predictive modeling for recurrence and drug resistance, and personalized trea...
While early findings using the SMART protocol for mesothelioma have been encouraging, replication has proven challenging due to steep surgical learning curves, complexities in planning, and skepticism. Dr. John Cho explores why adoption has been limited and what's next for this approach, which he discussed at the 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer. Dr. Cho is a radiation onco...
Surgery for mesothelioma after radiation therapy (SMART) offers new hope for patients with resectable epithelioid mesothelioma by reversing the traditional treatment sequence. Hear from Dr. John Cho as he discusses the rationale behind this decade-long clinical advancement, which he spoke about at the 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer. Dr. Cho is a radiation oncologist at Princes...
The World Health Organization's new Integrated Lung Health Resolution is the first to explicitly include lung cancer within a global lung health framework. In this AudioAbstract, ReachMD's Ryan Quigley explains what this means for screening, early diagnosis, care pathways, and equitable access to treatment.

Many patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience neurogenic bladder symptoms—ranging from urgency and incontinence to retention and infection risk—but these issues are often underprioritized in care. Based on recent research, remote, commercially available bladder monitoring tools can help address this unmet need and uncover day-to-day fluctuations in bladder function. To learn mor...
From pregnancy planning and postpartum relapse risk to the overlapping symptoms of menopause, women with multiple sclerosis (MS) face unique challenges throughout the reproductive lifespan.

Patients with pulmonary fibrosis often face anxiety and emotional distress that go unadressed during their care. Given this unmet need, a digital cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) platform was designed to support emotional wellbeing alonside medical treatment. Mr. Ryan Quigley sits down with Drs. Jessica Shull and Joshua Solomo...
A recent study investigated whether pulse-dose corticosteroids offer a benefit over lower doses in managing acute exacerbations of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Join Dr. Divya Shankar as she explains the real-world data, variability in prescribing patterns, and outcomes observed in different levels of care. Divya Shankar is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Boston University Cho...
A recent study explored whether lateral wall collapse can predict hypoglossal nerve stimulation efficacy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Join Dr. Daniel Vena as he explains the findings from this research and areas for future explanation. Dr. Vena is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, and he spoke about th...
As race-neutral reference equations have become the standard in pulmonary function tests (PFTs), a recent study explored the potential impact of this change on diagnosis and treatment of severe asthma. Join Dr. Isabel Bazan as she dives into the data and explains its implications for patient categorization and access to care. Dr. Bazan is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Yale Schoo...
A thoughtful, communicative, and compassionate approach to opioid use is essential for responsible patient use. Join Dr. Martin Cheatle as he explains the neuroscience of chronic pain, the psychosocial components often overlooked in these patients, and evidence-based strategies for evaluating risk and treatment response. Dr. Cheatle is the Director of Behavioral Medicine at the Penn Pain...
Patients who are receiving immunotherapy for cancer sometimes develop significant autoimmune complications, which can be fatal. Join Dr. Laura Cappelli, Associate Professor of Medicine and Oncology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, as she explains how multidisciplinary collaboration can help manage these rheumatic immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Dr. Cappel...
For children with rheumatic diseases, early diagnosis, personalized care, and multidisciplinary collaboration are critical for optimal long-term management. Join Dr. John Bridges, Assistant Professor in the Division of Pediatric Rheumatology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Heersink School of Medicine, as he explains how access, timing, and collaboration shape pediatric rheuma...
Our approach to lupus management is accelerating, with emerging results on targeted therapies in skin and renal disease showing promise. Dr. Michelle Kahlenberg shares insights on emerging biologics, CAR-T innovations, and potential barriers in translating treatment breakthroughs into real-world patient care. Dr. Kahlenberg is the Giles Boles and Dorothy Mulkey Research Professo...
Lupus arises from a complex interaction of genetics, environmental stimuli, and immune system errors. Dive into the pathophysiology behind the disease with Dr. Michelle Kahlenberg, the Giles Boles and Dorothy Mulkey Research Professor of Rheumatology and Professor of Internal Medicine and Dermatology at the University of Michigan, as she examines the mechanisms that contribute t...
Preclinical findings in animal models have shown that activating cannibinoid receptors can shrink prostate tumors in animal models. To explore whether these effects translate to human populations, a recent study examined a potential link between cannabis use and the development of prostate cancer. Hear from Ihtisham Ahmad, a fourth-year medical student at the University of Toronto, as he expl...

He left home as the chubby kid with a dream, a decade later, he's a touring comic with a killer set. Literally. In Wisecrack, stand-up comedian Edd Hedges returns to his hometown for a charity gig, only to find himself headlining the most terrifying night of his life. The warm welcome quickly unravels into a chilling true crime tale of a downward spiral and a town shaken by murder. When TV crime producer Jodi Tovay stumbled across Edd’s comedy set, it did more than get a few laughs, it opened the door to a years-long investigation she never saw coming. Part comedy special, part true crime thriller, Wisecrack blends punchlines with plot twists in a genre-defying ride where the laughs are real and the danger is no joke.
