"You can inculcate a culture from the top, from the beginning, that says, 'We don't lie. We don't cheat. We don't steal. And we're not going to tolerate people who do those things.'
The commitment to the task, the belief in what you're doing, all of that stuff, has to be established when the company is small and then you hope it will permeate the company as it grows."
Hear from Weaver Gaines about growing a company in our latest episode of Radio Cade.

Recalling his time in the radio business, guest Lew Dickey tells host James Di Virgilio that, as a CEO, it is important to recognize that you are often forced to take things as you go:
“The landscape is changing—you might be able to see a little bit around the corner, but nobody has perfect vision into the future.”
Currently, Dickey is the Co-Founder and Chairman of DM Luxury, America’s largest regional magazine company. However, this piece of advice rings especially true considering his background as the former CEO of Cumulus Media, the nation’s second largest radio company.

“I remember early in my career,” says Gary Miller, “attending orthopedic conferences just listening to the surgeons talking to each other. You build a vocabulary of what they’re talking about.”
Miller is the co-founder of Exactech, Inc. a Florida company which develops and manufactures orthopedic implants, and the holder of 14 US patents.
He talks with James Di Virgilio about his first invention, the innovative process, and the need for inventors and end-users to speak a common language.

When Carolyn Yarina, today's guest, walked into her university's Center for Entrepreneurship one day as an undergraduate, she was convinced that she would never become an entrepreneur herself.
"I remember tapping my foot, being impatient," she recalls, laughing, "I couldn't wait to get out of there, thinking that entrepreneurship wasn't for me."
Fast forward to a few years later, and she is now the co-founder and CEO of Sisu Global Health, a company that is committed to providing medical technology which enables healthcare for each person in their own community.
In this episode, host Richard Miles sits down with Yarina to learn more about Sisu Global and more specifically, Hemafuse, the company's handheld, mechanical device for intraoperative autotransfusions, designed to replace or augment donor blood in emergency situations.

"It turns out that age is a myth," says Dr. Michael Okun in discussing the drastic increase in Parkinson's cases. "Many people may be surprised when I tell you in our waiting room, I see people in their teens, and 20s and 30s with Parkinson's."
Learn more about the recent doubling in Parkinson's cases and how to treat them in this week's Radio Cade episode "Deep Brain Stimulation to Treat Parkinson’s Disease".

"I think we should embrace the differences in the way we learn at different ages, because as we're older, we bring wisdom with us and we bring an understanding of what we're doing that is very different from the way a child might approach learning." - Nina Kraus

Advanced Weather Predictions
The weather, everyone talks about it. But, as the old joke goes, no one does anything about it.
Leela Watson, founder and CEO of InitWeather, says that by using advanced algorithms and machine learning, we can make faster and more reliable predictions about the weather that can help a wide range of industries, including #agricultureandfarming, #energyindustry, and #aerospace.
InitWeather was a Cade Prize finalist in 2018.

3D Nasal Swabs
Nasal swabs, something many people had never heard of until COVID, suddenly became very hard to get just two weeks into the pandemic.
Dr. Summer Decker and her team at University of South Florida quickly determined they could make the swabs on a 3D printer. After making the printed swabs FDA compliant, Decker was able to share the design for free with the world. Since then more than 60 million such swabs have been used in global COVID testing.

Rapid Testing for Multiple Viruses
Making virus testing easy, or at least easier, will enable companies and organizations to reopen faster as we enter the beginning of the post-COVID era.
Dr. Timothy Garrett, the Chief of Experimental Pathology at University of Florida, has developed a test that can detect multiple viruses, including variants, from a single sample. Better yet, this can be done in a portable lab for remote testing, potentially making it widely available in many communities.

Improving COVID-19 Test Accuracy and Early Detection Can Save Lives
Overshadowed by news of COVID-19 vaccines, accurate testing is still urgently needed. This week's Radio Cade reveals a breakthrough from Dr. Vanaja Ragavan, who has developed a test that can lead to earlier detection and more information on viral load.
One of four girls, Cara Negri’s favorite book growing up was about an amputee named Michelle who went on to do everything. Cara has helped develop video motion analysis to analyze how people move and how to help them walk. Her company, PnO Data Solutions has developed tools that are widely used in the rehab and physical therapy market.
