In this episode of StartUp Health NOW, we dive into one of the most fascinating innovation stories in health tech. Our guest is Chuck Papageorgiou, CEO of NeuroEM Therapeutics, a company that’s part of StartUp Health’s Alzheimer’s Moonshot Community and is making waves with a radically different approach to treating Alzheimer’s disease — using radio waves. What started as a research study to prove that cell phones cause brain cancer led to an unexpected breakthrough: the very same radio frequencies used in phones appeared to improve brain health in mice with Alzheimer’s. The discovery sparked a scientific journey that has since included promising human trials, FDA Breakthrough Device designation, partnerships, and progress towards bringing this non-invasive, affordable, at-home therapy to millions. Papageorgiou shares how NeuroEM’s wearable headset is helping untangle the brain’s toxic proteins, the science behind this counterintuitive tech, and why the impact could rival — or even surpass — that of current Alzheimer’s drugs. If you're looking for an inspiring story about accidental genius ideas, bold leadership, and breakthrough innovation in brain health, this one’s a must-listen.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guests: Nitin N. Katariya, M.D., and Lavanya Kodali, M.B.B.S., M.D. At this time, about 11% of the population in the U.S. has diabetes.  This represents nearly 40 million people. And this number is increasing, not only in the U.S. but around the world. Although we have more medical options now than ever before for managing diabetes, the treatment is less than optimal. Another option is a pancreas transplant. What’s the status of pancreatic transplantation? Who’s a candidate for the procedure? How effective is it and what does the future hold for the procedure?  The topic for this podcast is “Pancreas Transplantation” and I’ll be discussing these questions with Nitin N. Katariya, M.D., a transplant surgeon and Lavanya Kodali, M.B.B.S., M.D., a nephrologist and specialist in renal transplant, both from the Arizona campus of the Mayo Clinic.
