SKRAPS is your podcast where we, on your behalf explore the stories of sparks of scientific brilliance in science and innovation. SKRAPS is the word sparks spelt backwards and also a play on the idea that ideas are written on back of a napkin or scraps of paper. We explore stories of people in science, while elaborating on the scientific details so that experts and non-experts can relate to science better in today's whimsical world that acts to spread mis-information.

And then came the microelectrode...!

Saison 6 · Épisode 3

mercredi 12 mars 2025 • Durée 17:40

How do we even know what constitutes the heart beat? What was the reason for all those abnormal rhythms of the heart? Why does it happen? The answer lies in the small, cylindrical glass tube called the micropipetter, which was used to create a microelectrode. Here it is, on how the microelectrode changed the face of cardiology.

It's time for DANC - “Dynamic ANC (Active "Nerve” Cancellation)”

Saison 4 · Épisode 11

lundi 3 octobre 2022 • Durée 01:10:37

Julia Child was a master. She was not a classically trained chef, but pursued cooking as a hobby. Her super power? Passion. A passion for making gastronomy accessible, to deliver an honest and attainable presentation, and she possessed a pure, unadulterated joy for her craft. While Michael Ackermann isn’t a neurotechnolgy hobbyist, he does share other qualities with the inimitable Child. He brings a passion for neurotechnology, mixes it with technical expertise picked up at Case Western Reserve University, panache earned through his time at Stanford BioDesign, and pairs it with an excellent vintage of management style.

Hungry yet? We thought you might be. Ackermann was actually one of our early targets for an interview on Skraps. Perhaps it was his humility and desire to keep the focus on the science instead of the personalities that caused him to decline our first plea invitation to record with us, but maybe as we grew in our professionalism and track record, Michael became just a tiny bit more comfortable with the idea. But he did it. We did it. We finally got him on the podcast. I promise, it’s worth the wait.

Listen on for the behind the science peek at Ackermann’s time in the BioDesign Program, check in as he deftly maneuvers Oculeve to success, and check out what’s happening now at Presidio Medical and beyond. Who knows what’s next? Perhaps a chocolate soufflé for his wife’s recent birthday (I know this because he was unable to join the Cleveland NeuroDesign faculty in person.)

Bon appétit!

It's the Second Anniversary of Skraps Podcast

Saison 4 · Épisode 10

mardi 6 septembre 2022 • Durée 01:33:20

Skraps is turning two. Or is it our second anniversary? I can't quite decide so let's celebrate both.

Join us as we walk down memory lane with some highlights (and hopefully no lowlights) of the past two years of their audio partnership. Re-live some of our favorite moments - laughter, tears, learning, and even occasionally, listening. We revisit early episodes (and see how far we've come) with Kit Parker, Stanton Rowe, Sandy Greenberg, and more.

With so many hours under our belts, it is impossible to pick "favorites" but we'd love to hear what some of your favorite moments have been, what you'd like to hear more of, and what we can leave on the cutting room floor (that's a reference for an increasingly limited audience - Arun and I are old.)

Our British Podcast Awards Nomination Tape

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

jeudi 23 juin 2022 • Durée 31:40

Hello friends and dear listeners,

Recently, we were urged by a couple of our British listeners and experienced audio producers in the podcasting space, to nominate our last season’s science documentary podcast on Psychedelics for the British Podcast awards.

Without further adieu, here is the 30 minute tape we sent for the second stage of the nomination.

European Innovation Council & NeuroTechnology/MedTech funding

Saison 4 · Épisode 9

jeudi 16 juin 2022 • Durée 47:30

Funding for Bioelectronic Medicines does not come from traditional venture capital. It also comes from grant funding agencies. While the most well known grant funding bodies are NIH and DARPA in this area, there is also a renewed deeper interest in funding early research to develop products for clinical applications from the EU as well.

So we invited, Dr. Enrique Claverol-Tinture (Enric), Program Manager of the Medical Technologies Program to talk about their most recent EIC pathfinder and accelerator challenges that they ran (2021 Pathfinder challenge results here). EIC is a new body and Enric has autonomy to propose new grant funding ideas for Medical Technologies (MedTech) and run funding cycles. He, inspired by the DARPA model can oversee a MedTech idea from conception to fruition.

In this episode, we talk about:

How the EIC interest in NeuroTech came to be?
How does it operate?
What did the last pool of successful applicants look like?
How the proposals are evaluated?
How does the project move from early feasibility to proof of concept to a clinical application?
Trials and tribulations of establishing something from ground up.

Sleep Apnea: ft. Napoleon, Churchill, Brahms, Stalin & Queen Victoria

Saison 4 · Épisode 8

dimanche 29 mai 2022 • Durée 01:17:56

“Laugh and the world laughs with you. Snore and you sleep alone” is a famous quote from the author Anthony Burgess.

Sleep Apnea affects 425 million adults over the age of 40. Yet, good treatments are unavailable. In this episode we address how Bioelectronic Medicines helps to alleviate the problem.

S4 E7: Investing (exclusively!!) in Bioelectronic Medicines

Saison 4 · Épisode 7

mercredi 4 mai 2022 • Durée 01:18:54

We are joined by Imran Eba of GlaxoSmithKline's Bioelectronic Medicine fund - Action Potential Venture Capital to talk about investing in Bioelectronic Medicines. APV is the only fund that invests exclusively in bioelectronic medicines - and they've been here since the beginning.

This leads to the ongoing question: what is and what is not a bioelectronic medicine (hear all three answers.)

After we get through the personal grooming habits of the hosts and our guest as well as the obligatory cricket references (it's hard to put JoJo on her heels in professional sports parlance - but Arun and Imran manage to keep her quiet for a record time) we launch into a casual conversation about what's happening in neurotech investing.

We talk about the trials and tribulations of how the world perceives Bioelectronic Medicines, what it should be, and what the reality is. Generously, Imran also shares with us some insights that every investigator, inventor, and investor should consider when preparing to raise funds in the field of neurotechnology, wait, no - BCIs, no -neuromodulation, gah - I mean... bioelectronic medicine.

And if you are looking for the framework for Bioelectronic Medicine that we discuss, you can get it here.

S4 E6: Research Pioneers ft. Ian Burkhart & Benjamin Stecher

Saison 4 · Épisode 6

mercredi 20 avril 2022 • Durée 01:00:48

Most of us can pretty certainly say that we are alone within our heads. We may joke about inner voices, but what really happens when there genuinely is an external influence deep within a brain? The answer?

In the case of two research pioneers, Ian Burkhart and Benjamin Stecher, the answer is nothing short of a miracle. These two souls both underwent life altering surgeries - not just in terms of literally allowing a device to tap into their brains, but surgeries that would do for them what no pill, no prayer, and no person could do for them.

Ian Burkhart was paralysed after a spinal cord injury endured while on holiday. What should have been a celebratory day at the beach, enjoyed, recorded, and then stored in his memory bank for future reflection ended in severe physical disability. Ian now serves as a Vice President of the North American Spinal Cord Consortium and is an advocate, speaker, and research pioneer.

Benjamin Stecher was handed a diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease at the impossibly early age of 29. He should have been enjoying what many of us believe are the prime years of adulthood when, instead, he was trying desperately to hold on to a “normal” life. He scoured manuscripts, spoke to experts, tested pharmaceutical cocktails to curtail the progression of his disease. Benjamin is an author, advocate, and chair of the Rune Labs Patient Advisory Board.

Both of these lionhearted men decided to do what few have done - they have invited a device to take up residence in their respective brains. Listen in to hear the first hand accounts of the what, why, and how they have gone to such lengths. We’ll share with you their stories and their triumphs, and certainly their challenges along the way. At the end of this tale, you will know that both are superhuman, but not for the reasons you may think. You’ll hear about their journeys that have turned them into authors and advocates, and above all, men of science.

Learn more about Ian Burkhart through the Ian Burkhart Foundation and read Benjamin’s book, “”.

S4 E5: The Killing

Saison 4 · Épisode 5

vendredi 18 mars 2022 • Durée 58:43

PUT YOUR HEADPHONES ON!

What does a 4 cm long and 25g in weight crustacean have to teach us about Bioelectronic Medicine and human health? And what does its feeding habits have to tell us about how we deal with tumours?

Well, there is more than what meets the eye! If we reveal more than this, we are breaking the plot to you and making your life easy.

So, it is time to do the hard yards and go on this underwater exploration first, before we figure out a new frontier for Ultrasound modulation of nerve tumours (in this case - glioblastoma). We cover Dr. Vijay Agarwal and his company - Alpheus Medical for what they are dreaming of, having been inspired by this seemingly innocuous crustacean that has links to World War II, submarines, symbiotic relationships and sonodynamic therapy?

Can Alpheus Medical help treat cancer? There is only way to find out. But first, listen to this journey!

Our deepest thanks to CorTec Neuro and CirTec Medical for their kind help in bringing these episodes to you.
