From Bench To Bedside takes the listener on a journey through the history of diseases, medical discovery, and modern therapeutic development. The field of medicine and science are inextricably intertwined. PhDs are indeed the first "doctors" predating MDs by hundreds of years. As the body of knowledge has grown the specialties have necessarily diverged but are reliant on each other for translation of science into medical treatments. Host Dr. Melanie Matheu (PhD) highlights the stories of scientific and medical collaboration that have brought us the breakthroughs of the past and discusses the ones we will need in the future.

In this episode Dr. Matheu challenges the hypothesis of “Immunity Debt” with real-world data and well established Immunology providing a counter hypothesis to the question of “why are we all getting so sick?” by explaining how Sars-CoV-2 causes immune system dysfunction and dysregulation. The episode finishes with questions about “White Lung Syndrome” the popularized term for the uptick in severe childhood pneumonia across the northern hemisphere this winter cold and flu season (2023-24).

Welcome to Episode 2 of From Bench to Bedside where we explore the history of disease and scientific advancements leading to treatments. In this episode host Dr. Melanie Matheu (PhD) provides an introduction to the history Diabetes Mellitus, the critical advances that led us to the treatments of today, and what is next.

Host Dr. Melanie Matheu (PhD) and special guest Dr. Zachary Rubin (MD) a double board-certified pediatric Allergist and Immunologist discuss the history of vaccine development. This massive topic is impossible to cover in one episode but for further reading on the giants in vaccine development feel free to read more about the scientists listed below. Scientific research is a team effort wherein discoveries and inventions are developed through collaboration between different laboratories and tens to hundreds of researchers each of them moving research incrementally forward. Edward Jenner: Smallpox Vaccine Louis Pasteur: Rabies Vaccine Max Theiler: Yellow Fever Vaccine (1951 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine) Jonas Salk: Polio Vaccine John Franklin Enders: Measles Vaccine (1954 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine) Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman: Advances in mRNA technology that allowed for the next generation of vaccine development (2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine)…
