Elizabeth, or Betsy as she is known to friends, found sanctuary in Eunice’s Berkeley home during the student riots of 1969 in the “battle” for People’s Park. There she read a draft of Eunice’s last mystery, A Vacation to Kill For. Watching Eunice go through the process of writing ultimately inspired Betsy to write her own book. The Goldilocks Genome (to be published by TouchPoint Press), is a medical thriller based on her deep knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry. Her next book HEPATITIS Beach — From Beach to Boardroom in a pre-#MeToo World (to be published in 2024) focuses on her time and research in Melanesia, where she did her doctoral research. She studied the natural history of hepatitis B virus on a remote island with no Western amenities, went native, and found time to enjoy the beach. During the 1970’s it was a very different and challenging environment for a woman in Academia. She describes how she navigated the pre-#MeToo world and her rite of passage into a successful career in the pharmaceutical industry.

In episode 269 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Elizabeth chose UC Berkeley, why most prescription drugs have a Goldilocks Effect, how we can reduce healthcare costs on the American people, how your DNA can impact alcohol abuse in college, how we can increase hope for folks with Neurodegenerative and Cardiovascular Diseases, what companies she’s working with now, how she knows whether a start-up will be a winner, and advice to college students who want to start their own business.

Samantha finished school at 16 years old and commenced studying medicine at The University of Adelaide. Driven to take on challenges, she became the first woman in South Australia to complete the adult Urological Surgical training program despite physical limitations from congenital hip dysplasia. While training in urology, Samantha saw a need for a greater focus on incontinence treatments for women and a need for specialized care.

Samantha has devoted her career as a surgeon to treating incontinence, reducing the stigma, and educating doctors, health professionals and the community.

Dr. Robb Kelly: What are the signs of alcohol and drug addiction on your college campus?

By on

Today we have with us Dr. Robb Kelly. There was a moment that Dr. Kelly refers to as his, “Ah-Ha” moment, and he realized that his own addiction problem was not the alcohol, but how he thought about the alcohol. Dr. Kelly would RECOVER from his disease. Living as a RECOVERED alcoholic, he made it his mission and life purpose to help other chronic addicts and alcoholics recover. Dr. Kelly has witnessed the miracle of recovery – he has worked with over five thousand addicts and alcoholics, who appeared just as desperate and hopeless as he did, and he has helped lead them to the solution of permanent recovery. His personal slogan, “Step out of the disease, and into the Solution” was created from his own philosophy of recovery.

Dr. Robb tells us about his time as a session player, singer songwriter, and producer at Abbey Road Studios in London where he had a chance to play with Elton John, Queen, and David Bowie, what it was like going to school in Oxford for his PhD, how he eventually succumbed to addiction and mental health issues and ended up homeless, what are the signs of alcohol and drug addiction in fraternity and sorority chapters, what are three core concepts that keep most addicts and alcoholics rooted in their disease, what he looks for as he studies the disease and watches for changes, how he helps students with stress management, how he helps students overcome eating disorders, and his favorite restaurants in San Antonio. There are great stories in here about Dr. Robb’s encounters with Elton John and Gordon Ramsey. Enjoy!
