Dr. James Tour, one of the world’s leading nanotechnologists and a bold follower of Christ, joins Faith in Healthcare host Dr. Mike Chupp for a fascinating conversation at the intersection of faith and science. A renowned synthetic organic chemist at Rice University, Dr. Tour has authored more than 800 publications, holds over 140 patents, and launched multiple startups. His pioneering work stretches from “flash graphene” that converts trash into valuable carbon and hydrogen fuel, to groundbreaking approaches in cancer treatment and guiding nerve regrowth after spinal cord injury.

Yet beyond the lab, Dr. Tour’s daily rhythm of Scripture and prayer over the past 47 years has fueled both his creativity and courage. In this episode, he shares how his walk with Christ shapes discovery, why the resurrection remains central to his witness, and his challenge to the next generation of academics and healthcare professionals to live and speak for Christ, even in environments that resist it, and even when it costs.

Dr. Amy Adamczyk joins host Dr. Mike Chupp and CMDA’s Vice President of Advocacy and Bioethics, Dr. Brick Lantz, to explore why views on abortion vary so widely across nations. A sociology professor at John Jay College and author of Fetal Positions, Dr. Adamczyk draws on decades of global research to show how culture, religion, economics, and policy shape public opinion. CMDA holds firmly to the biblical conviction that every life is made in God’s image and worthy of protection, and this conversation seeks perspective on eye-opening global data, offering insights that can sharpen our convictions and encourage Christian healthcare professionals in our witness.

In this episode of Faith in Healthcare, Dr. Steve Willing joins host Dr. Mike Chupp to explore the neuroscience behind what is often described as transgender identity. Drawing from his decades of experience in pediatric neuroradiology, as well as his work in apologetics and scholarship, Dr. Willing examines brain imaging research, neuroplasticity, and the impact of puberty blockers. He challenges healthcare professionals to seek truth in a field clouded by controversy, while reminding us to respond with courage, compassion, and conviction as followers of Christ.
