Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DYVM5YzMh7K/As the search continues for a reliable male contraceptive that can be reverse at will, reproductive biologists at Cornell University have made a significant advancement and published their study results in the Proceedings of the National Academy of. Sciences.The investigators used a compound called JQ1, a so-called bromodomain inhibitor that interferes with the generation of the genetic material necessary for normal sperm production.  Using a mouse model, this therapy effectively shuts down sperm production and fertility in treated animals. After discontinuation of the drug, both returned within 8 months.This method is far from a clinical application.  The research does demonstrate the possibility that men will be able to play a key role in  birth control….someday soon. The references for this report are available on my website.#menshealth #birthcontrol #medicalinnovation #healthnews #sciencenews

NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
