What is in a name change? Moving from the term PCOS to PMOS

In this episode of The Lancet Pulse, Chloe Wilson joins Helena Teede and Terhi Piltonen to discuss a recent health policy published in The Lancet that details a global consensus process that puts forward a new name for PCOS - termed PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome) to more accurately reflect the disease process. Listen now to hear more about the process and how it is hoped the name change will lead to better care for those affected by the condition. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(26)00717-8/fulltext [https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(26)00717-8/fulltext?dgcid=podcast_acq-may2026_lancetpulse] The Lancet Pulse is part of the Lancet Group podcast offering.  Editorial team: Chloe Wilson, Ben Abbott, Matthew Gilbert, and Jonathan Pimm Podcast editing and production: Matteo Simonetti Visit https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia [https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia?dgcid=buzzsprout_podcast_tlp_mm] to learn more about our multimedia offering.  Find the best science for better lives at https://www.thelancet.com [https://www.thelancet.com] Follow us today at... https://thelancet.bsky.social/ [https://thelancet.bsky.social/] https://instagram.com/thelancetgroup [https://instagram.com/thelancetgroup] https://facebook.com/thelancetmedicaljournal [https://facebook.com/thelancetmedicaljournal] https://linkedIn.com/company/the-lancet [https://linkedin.com/company/the-lancet] https://youtube.com/thelancettv [https://www.youtube.com/thelancettv]

Is there a link between diet and mental health?

In this episode of The Lancet Pulse, Niall Boyce and Matt Gilbert speak with Professor Daniel Smith about the emerging connection between diet and mental health, with a focus on the ketogenic diet and bipolar disorder. Together, they explore what bipolar disorder is, why its depressive phases can be so difficult to treat, and why researchers are beginning to investigate whether changes in metabolism and brain energy use could play a role in improving symptoms. The conversation also looks at the bigger picture: how much evidence is there so far, what makes this area of research so promising, and where caution is still needed. From early feasibility studies to questions about long-term safety, affordability, and dietitian support, this episode offers a thoughtful look at a fast-evolving field — and asks whether nutritional approaches could become a meaningful add-on to mental health care in the future.

Are we ready for AI to transform pathology?

The field of pathology is starting to look very different, as we increasingly understand the potential for AI to support clinical diagnosis and decision-making, alleviate high clinician workloads, and perform complex tasks that humans can't.  But the adoption of AI isn't without challenges. Sebastian Försch and Inti Zlobec join Ben Abbott and Chloe Wilson, from The Lancet, to discuss. --------------------------------- The Lancet Pulse is part of the Lancet Group podcast offering.  Editorial team: Chloe Wilson, Ben Abbott, Matthew Gilbert, and Jonathan Pimm Podcast editing and production: Matteo Simonetti Visit https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia [https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia?dgcid=buzzsprout_podcast_tlp_mm] to learn more about our multimedia offering.  Find the best science for better lives at https://www.thelancet.com [https://www.thelancet.com/?dgcid=https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia?dgcid=buzzsprout_podcast_tlp_mm] Continue this conversation on social!

episode Are we on the cusp of a psychedelic renaissance in psychiatry? artwork

Are we on the cusp of a psychedelic renaissance in psychiatry?

Professor Rachel Yehuda from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai describes psychedelics as “heart openers” and Dr. Liliana Galindo from the University of Cambridge likens their action to a surgeon’s scalpel, but each agree that psychedelic-assisted therapy may offer lasting relief to people struggling with a wide range of mental health problems.  Both join Lancet editors Jonathan and Matt to discuss the burgeoning field of psychedelic-assisted therapy. LSD, MDMA, 5-MeO-DMT, psilocybin, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, substance-use disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder; potentially-pivotal phase 3 trial data are maturing amid growing interest from regulators and investors, but many practical questions remain before the patients most in need may benefit from this psychedelic renaissance. --------------------------------- The Lancet Pulse is part of the Lancet Group podcast offering.  Editorial team: Chloe Wilson, Ben Abbott, Matthew Gilbert, and Jonathan Pimm Podcast editing and production: Matteo Simonetti Visit https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia [https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia?dgcid=buzzsprout_podcast_tlp_mm] to learn more about our multimedia offering.  Find the best science for better lives at https://www.thelancet.com [https://www.thelancet.com/?dgcid=https://www.thelancet.com/multimedia?dgcid=buzzsprout_podcast_tlp_mm] Continue this conversation on social!
