A follow-up to our post on the importance of gut health, here is a doc feature co-directed by our friends Steve Lawrence and Sarah Schenck on the microbiome’s importance to our health and longevity. A great film!

Thank you Maren Badger and Greg Romero for jumping off the cliff in the name of science. The research wouldn’t be where it is today without your courage and sacrifice to go first. Learn more about Clinical Trials Day here:

On May 20th International Clinical Trials Day is celebrated. It’s a day you may not have heard of, but I hope The Human Trial shows why it’s important. Without volunteers, there would be no clinical trials. Without clinical trials, there would be no medical breakthroughs.

Check out the podcast that Lisa did with Talia Lazarus in the UK. Talia is a great host with an inspiring story. What keeps you going? @igotback_up @talialazarus https://t.co/fJCJJBmYDv

It’s never too late to give a gift to the mom in your life. Check out this diabetes-inspired list from our friends at DiaTribe:

Let’s celebrate every mom touched by diabetes today. If you’re a T1D mom – or you parent a child with T1D – the usual juggling act of kids, work, school and a semblance of a social life, becomes a three-ring circus.

The Human Trial is screening at @Journalismusfest Internationale in Innsbruck today! Lisa is speaking on a panel post screening at 2:30 PM CEST. Austria’s daily newspaper, @derStandardat , did a piece on the film. “Heilversprechen” means “promise of a cure” in German. Efficient!

Highlight of the month – Listening to some very brilliant people discussing faster cures and health equity. These are the policy-makers who take big ideas and make them a reality. Panelists included #FrancisCollins #MichaelMilken #ReneeWegrzyn and #EstherKrofah. Very inspiring.
