Road to Resilience

Every day, emergency departments see people on some of the hardest days of their lives. In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with Dr. Nicholas Gavin, an emergency physician at Mount Sinai, about what it really means to work in the emergency department. Dr. Gavin offers a simple but powerful perspective on resilience: it is a muscle that can be strengthened. By looking back at how we have navigated adversity before, we can draw on those experiences to face whatever comes next.To register for our upcoming livestream panel commemorating the 25th anniversary of 9/11 and the transformative work of the World Trade Center Health Program in clinical care and research, visit mount sinai dot org forward-slash wtc event for more info.Visit https://www.mountsinai.org/clinical-trials to see if you're eligible to enroll in a clinical trial with the Mount Sinai Health System.Check out more episodes of Road to Resilience —as well as guest pictures, transcripts, and more— on the Mount Sinai website.If this episode inspired you, please consider supporting the Mount Sinai Health System.

Depression is often mistaken for ordinary sadness, but clinically it is something profoundly different: a medical illness that can alter the way the brain processes emotion, motivation, and even hope itself.In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with James Murrough, MD, PhD, to discuss how groundbreaking neuroimaging research explains why depression may leave the brain "entrapped" in inefficient patterns of activity, The conversation explores the difference between sadness and clinical depression, why chronic stress can reshape the brain, how behavioral therapy and medication help people break free from depression's grip, and why the brain's extraordinary capacity for change offers genuine reason for hope.Visit https://www.mountsinai.org/clinical-trials to see if you're eligible to enroll in a clinical trial with the Mount Sinai Health System.

Resilience isn't just a personality trait—it's something the brain actively builds. In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with Eric J. Nestler, MD, PhD, one of the world's foremost neuroscientists, about the remarkable capacity of the brain to adapt in the face of adversity.  Drawing on decades of groundbreaking research into depression, addiction, and stress, Dr. Nestler explains why trauma doesn't affect everyone the same way, how resilience is shaped by both biology and experience, and what science is revealing about the brain's extraordinary ability to recover and change. The episode explores why supportive relationships matter, how chronic stress alters the brain, whether resilience can be cultivated at any age, and the everyday habits that can help strengthen our minds throughout life. Visit https://www.mountsinai.org/clinical-trials to see if you're eligible to enroll in a clinical trial with the Mount Sinai Health System.Check out more episodes of Road to Resilience —as well as guest pictures, transcripts, and more— on the Mount Sinai website.If this episode inspired you, please consider supporting the Mount Sinai Health System.

When Jacqueline Mills noticed a new mole on her face, she trusted her instincts—even after her concerns were initially dismissed. Her persistence led to an early melanoma diagnosis and became a powerful reminder of how speaking up and seeking a second opinion can make all the difference.In this episode of Road to Resilience, Jacqueline shares her story; she is followed by the Mount Sinai dermatologist who discovered her melanoma, Dr. Jesse Lewin, who expands the conversation to what everyone should know about skin health. Together, they discuss the warning signs of skin cancer, the ABCDEs of melanoma, smart sun protection, advances in early detection and imaging technology, and why the future of dermatologic care has never been brighter.Whether you're heading to the beach or simply taking a closer look in the mirror, this conversation will leave you better equipped to protect your skin—and yourself.Visit https://www.mountsinai.org/clinical-trials to see if you're eligible to enroll in a clinical trial with the Mount Sinai Health System.Check out more episodes of Road to Resilience —as well as guest pictures, transcripts, and more— on the Mount Sinai website.If this episode inspired you, please consider supporting the Mount Sinai Health System.

Childhood trauma can leave lasting marks on the brain, body, and sense of safety—but it does not define a person’s future. In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with Frank W. Putnam, MD, one of the country’s leading researchers on childhood trauma and maltreatment. Drawing on decades of clinical work and a landmark longitudinal study that followed abused girls from childhood into adulthood, Dr. Putnam explains how early maltreatment can shape mental health, physical health, development, and even biological aging. But the conversation is also about what helps people heal. Dr. Putnam discusses why safety is the foundation of recovery, how supportive relationships can change a child’s trajectory, and why resilience often begins with having options, stability, and someone who truly listens. Visit https://www.mountsinai.org/clinical-trials to see if you're eligible to enroll in a clinical trial with the Mount Sinai Health System.Check out more episodes of Road to Resilience —as well as guest pictures, transcripts, and more— on the Mount Sinai website.If this episode inspired you, please consider supporting the Mount Sinai Health System.

When Susan Baum was diagnosed with Age-Related Macular Degeneration, the news landed with unusual force: She had already watched the disease reshape the lives of close family members, narrowing mobility, independence, and daily confidence. Instead of accepting her relatives’ fate, Baum pushed deeper into research until she found a promising path forward: red light treatment newly introduced through New York Eye and Ear Infirmary.  In this conversation, Susan shares how measurable improvements came quickly, why she chose to speak publicly despite being intensely private, and how resilience sometimes means refusing passive acceptance when new approaches and innovations may change the outcome. Visit https://www.mountsinai.org/clinical-trials to see if you're eligible to enroll in a clinical trial with the Mount Sinai Health System.
