What's Your Problem?

Every week on What’s Your Problem, entrepreneurs and engineers talk about the future they’re trying to build – and the problems they have to solve to get there.

How do you take a drone delivery service you’ve built in Rwanda and make it work in North Carolina? How do you convince people to buy a house on the Internet? How do you sell thousands of dog ramps to weiner dogs all across America when a pandemic breaks the global supply chain? 

Hosted by former Planet Money host Jacob Goldstein, What’s Your Problem helps listeners understand the problems really smart people are trying to solve right now.

Kevin Murach is a professor who studies muscle cells at the University of Missouri. Kevin's problem is this: Can we understand what's going on in our cells when we lift weights – and can we use that knowledge to help people stay healthier as they age?

In this episode, Kevin explains: 
The technology lets scientists watch individual muscle nuclei during exercise
The significance of a cancer gene called Myc that is activated after lifting weights 
How Myc may be linked to cellular age reversal
Why muscle responds less to exercise with age

Can a Cancer Gene Keep Muscles Young?

Circadian rhythm isn’t just controlled by your brain. Every cell in your body runs on a 24-hour cycle, including your muscle cells. 

Karyn Esser is the chair of the department of physiology and aging at the University of Florida, and she’s a leading expert on circadian rhythm in muscle cells. Karyn's problem is this: How does the circadian rhythm in muscle cells change as we age, and how does exercise help keep our system in sync?

In this episode, Karyn explains: 
How every cell in your body has a clock in it
How muscle clocks prepare cells for work and schedule recovery during rest
How age affects these clocks’ ability to regulate effectively 
Why exercise can improve clock function 
Why jet lag and late-night eating can put your body clocks out of sync
