Dr. Zahoorudin, MBBS, M.D., a board-certified diplomate of the American Academy of Stem Cell Physicians, (AASCP) USA, credits Stemtech’s stem cell nutrition science with launching his career in regenerative medicine. NAPLES, FL –Stemtech Corporation (OTCID:STEK) announced that Dr. Zahoorudin, a physician and board-certified diplomate of the American Academy of Stem Cell Physicians, based in Pakistan, has identified Stemtech’s stem cell nutrition science as the cornerstone of his decision to build his medical practice and research around stem cell utilization. Dr. Zahoorudin, who began studying Stem Cells & Regenerative Medicine in 2008 — years before stem cell science entered mainstream awareness — says it was Stemtech’s early research into the body’s own stem cell mechanisms that first drew him into the field, well before he pursued his fellowship and board certification. In the United Kingdom during 2008, Dr. Zahoorudin became deeply interested in a rapidly changing view of cellular biology. That same year, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Osamu Shimomura, Martin Chalfie and Roger Y. Tsien for the discovery and development of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), a breakthrough that gave scientists a powerful way to visualize and track biological processes inside living cells. For Dr. Zahoorudin, whose medical education from 1996 to 2001 had emphasized stem cells primarily in the context of blood-cell formation, the emerging ability to observe cell behavior, movement and fate helped open an entirely new way of thinking about regeneration. It was during this formative period that Dr. Zahoorudin became involved with Stemtech US & UK team and participated in Stemtech scientific seminars across the UK and Europe. He became particularly fascinated by the company’s early focus on the body’s own stem-cell biology-including the concepts of release, circulation, migration and homing. These ideas led him to explore a much broader question: how might endogenous stem and progenitor cells, together with tissue-resident regenerative cells, contribute to the maintenance and repair of blood vessels, muscle, bone and other organs. Dr. Zahooruddin, MD “It was Stemtech who gave us the required knowledge — the product knowledge and the mechanism behind stem cell migration, production, multiplication, and homing — before my fellowship, before my board certification. Because of Stemtech, I am in the stem cell field today.” — Dr. Zahoorudin What seemed highly futuristic to Dr. Zahoorudin in 2008 would become central to his professional journey over the following years. Modern regenerative science has since greatly expanded the understanding of stem and progenitor-cell mobilization, chemotactic homing, tissue-specific stem-cell niches, endothelial progenitor biology and the molecular signals governing tissue repair.* Zahoorudin credits his early exposure to Stemtech with encouraging him to pursue these questions long before he obtained his later fellowship and board certification in the field-making the company, in his words, a “cornerstone” of his journey into regenerative medicine. Dr. Zahoorudin has since built one of Pakistan’s most advanced stem cell practices, and is now working to expand the availability of Stemtech’s stemceutical products throughout the region as part of that practice. “Stemtech is the cornerstone of how Dr. Zahoorudin’s research started and where it continues to be developed. Very few people understand what stem cell nutrition truly is, and that’s why we’ve concentrated on this for so long.” — Charles S. Arnold, Chairman & CEO, Stemtech Corporation Stemtech leadership said the relationship reflects the company’s original mission: providing accessible, science-based nutritional support for the body’s own stem cell activity,* delivered through a global network of Independent Business Partners (IBPs) and, increasingly, medical practitioners. “This is extraordinary progress, and it reflects exactly the kind of medical doctor validation our science was built for.” — John W.

Sarah Paulson brought a modern, high-fashion edge to ABC Studios in New York City on September 21, 2026, pairing a dramatic black-and-white Michael Kors look with sharply pointed Magda Butrym mules for an appearance on Good Morning America promoting American Horror Story Season 13. The latest season of the horror anthology series premieres on September 24 and will consist of 13 episodes. At 5 feet 6 inches tall with a US shoe size 8.5, Paulson has built an adventurous footwear history around everything from towering platforms to sharply pointed pumps and sculptural designer shoes.

Their elongated silhouette gave the shoes a modern, architectural look that felt particularly well suited to her experimental approach to footwear. The slip-on mules featured sleek pointed toes and a streamlined shape, while the vamp extended slightly toward the sides of the foot, creating a sculptural line across the front. The open backs and low-cut sides exposed more of the foot, keeping the silhouette sharp and minimal. The design continues Magda Butrym’s move beyond ready-to-wear into statement footwear. The Warsaw-founded label has previously appeared on YNS through Kerry Washington’s embellished Magda Butrym heels, which showcased a much more decorative side of the brand’s shoe aesthetic. Paulson’s mules were set on slender 2-inch kitten heels, adding a subtle lift without competing with their exaggerated pointed toes. As our guide to different types of heels explains, kitten heels typically combine a low, slender heel with the polished appearance of taller styles, and they’re particularly common on pointed-toe shoes. The combination worked beautifully here: the low heel kept the mules understated, while the extended toe supplied the drama. Explore Magda Butrym’s current shoe selection, including pointed-toe mules and kitten heels, on the brand’s official website.

From the Fall 2026 Ready-to-Wear collection, the look paired a crisp, structured top with a more dramatic skirt, creating an interesting contrast between clean tailoring and the skirt’s fluid movement. Her white frayed cotton poplin shirt had a clean, oversized silhouette, crisp point collar, and roomy sleeves with exaggerated French cuffs that gave it a tailored, menswear-inspired shape. Sarah tucked it into a black high-waisted, hand-embroidered feather wool gabardine skirt, part of the brand’s 45th anniversary campaign. The midi-length skirt was covered in black feather embellishments, creating a shaggy, tactile surface from the waist down. The fluffy texture transformed the simple white shirt, giving the outfit far more drama while the classic black-and-white palette kept everything polished. Michael Kors has also worked particularly well with low pointed heels on other stars: Nicole Kidman paired a sequined Michael Kors Collection dress with pointed Giuseppe Zanotti kitten heels at the 2016 CMT Music Awards.

She also added Completed Works’ Juggernaut earrings, featuring a chunky, crystal-covered design that brought statement sparkle around her face. A black satin Liffner zip clutch finished her ensemble, keeping the accessories coordinated without distracting from the feathered skirt. Her hair was pulled back into a neat, low style with a center part, while her makeup stayed soft and natural, with lightly flushed cheeks and a rosy nude lip. Crystal-covered Completed Works Juggernaut earrings add statement sparkle to Sarah Paulson’s otherwise minimalist styling, finished with black sunglasses and a sleek center-parted updo (Credit: Roger Wong / INSTARimages) Sarah Paulson’s Sculptural Shoe Streak Continues The Magda Butrym mules fit into a broader pattern in Paulson’s 2026 wardrobe: even when the outfit is relatively restrained, her shoes often introduce an unusual shape. Earlier in the year, she took that idea in a more dramatic direction at the Disney Upfront, where Paulson wore white Jude “Fame” pumps with curved dagger heels beneath a gothic Rodarte dress. The Magda Butrym mules trade those 4-inch sculptural heels for a restrained kitten heel but keep the exaggerated proportions through their sharply extended toes. For anyone comparing the silhouettes, our guide to popular shoe toe shapes explains the differences between pointed, almond, round, and square toes. Paulson’s mules also capture the contrasts that run through Magda Butrym’s designs. The Polish label regularly mixes strong, sculpted silhouettes with overtly feminine details such as corset construction, lingerie-inspired finishes, lace, draping, and dimensional rosettes. Its celebrity looks can move from romantic dresses and fitted minis to sharp tailoring and heavy combat boots without losing that tension between softness and structure. Explore More Magda Butrym Shoe & Fashion Moments: Irina Shayk showed the tougher side of Magda Butrym in chunky black combat boots, using their lace-up fronts, platforms, and heavy lug soles to give classic Burberry a grittier finish. Jenna Dewan highlighted Magda Butrym’s softer, sculptural side in a white lace corset top, where a dimensional neckline, sheer lace, and internal boning balanced romance with structure. Leslie Mann embraced the label’s romantic side in an embroidered white Magda Butrym midi dress, pairing its delicate floral detailing and lace trims with glossy brown Paris Texas Lidia mules. Selena Gomez went monochrome in a sculpted white Magda Butrym mini dress and Santoni slingback pumps, showing how the label’s dramatic proportions can work within a clean, restrained palette. Chloe East leaned into Magda Butrym’s lingerie-inspired aesthetic with a sculptural black mini dress, balancing its bustier bodice and exaggerated hips with sharply pointed black pumps. Together, Paulson’s Jude pumps and Magda Butrym mules show two very different ways to make footwear sculptural. One puts the drama in the heel; the other shifts it to the toe. In both cases, the unusual shape is what makes the shoe memorable. The post Sarah Paulson Pairs Sculptural Magda Butrym Mules With a Feathered Michael Kors Skirt appeared first on Your Next Shoes.

Asia-Pacific government bonds rose alongside US Treasury futures as falling oil eased inflation fears after Washington reported progress in diplomatic efforts to end the war with Iran. Australian and New Zealand sovereign bonds rallied, with 10-year yields in both countries down at least three basis points. Futures on US equity indices remained near record highs. The MSCI Asia Pacific index was up 0.1% after earlier gains of as much as 0.5%. South Korea's Kospi, a barometer for AI investment sentiment, pared gains to 1.9%, while Hong Kong's tech index slid by 1% and Alibaba shares fell by 3%. Brent is on track for its longest losing streak in a year after President Donald Trump called a meeting between US officials and Iranian representatives "very good," confirming Washington has renewed efforts to end the conflict. Oil dipped by 1.1% to roughly $98.20/bbl, heading for a sixth straight session of declines. It's this diplomatic dynamic, not macro statistics, that is driving market sentiment now. Traders are focused on Iran-related headlines as the main signal for whether oil will keep falling and, with it, bond yields that spiked to multi-year highs earlier this month. Meta Platforms' new AI agent, Muse, remains center stage, triggering a 7.1% jump in Shopify shares after the companies announced a partnership. The US dollar index extended gains for a fourth straight session, up 0.1%, as investors tuned into Fed speakers who have been sending clear signals about further rate increases. Gold slipped by 0.4% to about $4,345/oz, while Bitcoin held near $86,600. A separate theme this week — the upcoming summit between US President Donald Trump and China's Xi Jinping — adds uncertainty even without the Iran factor. Trump will host Xi in Washington in a visit that feels more about protocol than policy, and market expectations for breakthroughs on long-running trade disputes between the world's two largest economies are muted. In my view, the key fork in the road over the coming days is not the Trump-Xi meeting, from which the market does not expect much, but whether Iran-related progress is confirmed by concrete steps rather than optimistic rhetoric about a "very good" meeting. If diplomacy advances, I wouldn't rule out oil falling toward $90/bbl or lower, which would drag bond yields down as well. Any breakdown in talks could quickly reverse oil, gold, and the dollar, especially given already thin pre-holiday liquidity in Asia. Technically, the S&P 500 chart indicates that the immediate task for buyers is to overcome the resistance level of $7,774 to demonstrate upside and open a path to $7,793. Maintaining control above $7,810 would further strengthen the bulls' case. On the downside, buyers must defend $7,756. A break below that level would likely push the index to $7,737 and open the way to $7,718. The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

Taiwan’s broad money supply growth eased in August 2026, suggesting a gradual cooling in liquidity conditions that could have implications for credit markets and domestic demand. The M2 money supply growth rate slowed to 6.79% in August, down from 7.42% recorded in July 2026.The latest figures, updated on 23 September 2026, point to a deceleration in the pace at which money is circulating in the economy. While M2 growth remains relatively robust, the moderation from July’s level may indicate a more cautious lending environment or a tempering of deposit and savings expansion.Investors and analysts will be watching subsequent releases to see whether August’s slowdown marks the beginning of a more sustained trend, which could influence expectations for funding conditions and the broader economic outlook in Taiwan over the coming months.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com
