If mental health, policy, neuroscience, or cardiac health spark your curiosity, tune in to your next podcast obsession — Vanderbilt Health DNA: Discoveries in Action.

Vanderbilt Health is backed by a team of skilled physicians + compassionate volunteers and their commitment to discovering, caring, learning + sharing is what inspired their podcast (it’s in their DNA).

Discoveries in Action is in its third season discussing big ideas and breakthroughs happening right here in NASH. Season and episode topics are all health-centric, ranging from discussions on climate change to breakthroughs in neuroscience and everything in between.

Season three kicked off in August with a live Twitter Spaces chat between Vanderbilt Health professionals and teenagers from the Boys and Girls Club of Middle Tennessee — you can hear the full conversation on their website. Bonus: related mental health resources are included in the producer’s cut.
