SUMMARY:Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias Translational Work-in-Progress Series (TWIPs)
DESCRIPTION:Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias Translational Work-in-Progress Series (TWIPs) with:\nZheng Shi\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology\, Rutgers-New Brunswick \n“Deciphering Determinants of Condensate Liquid-to-Solid Transitions in Neurodegeneration” \n📆 Wednesday\, November 4 12:00-1:00pm\n💻 Attend via Zoom \nDr. Shi’s lab pursues two primary directions: 1) Quantitative understanding of the material properties of biomolecular condensates in cells that are relevant to neurodegeneration and cell signaling. 2) Investigating the subcellular behavior of mechanosensitive proteins. Dr. Shi is hoping to discuss specific aims and get feedback for a potential NINDS R01 application. Particularly\, he is trying to develop his research aims\, which currently focus on the material states of biomolecular condensates\, towards understanding the mechanisms of neurodegeneration.

SUMMARY:NJ ACTS Special Populations Seminar with Shawnika Hull\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Feasibility & Acceptability of Sistas Informing Sistas About Topics on AIDS and PrEP (SISTA-P)” \nShawnika Hull\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, Department of Communication\, Rutgers University\, New Brunswick \nDr. Hull will describe the community-engaged development and testing of SISTA-P\, a Black women-specific HIV prevention intervention that is grounded in Social Cognitive Theory and Intersectionality. SISTA-P focuses on self-care activities for Black women to increase their knowledge of and recognition of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use as self-care\, and increase their PrEP uptake.  SISTA-P also trains women to increase their efficacy and skills for overcoming social-structural barriers to PrEP uptake. \nBio: Shawnika Hull (Ph.D.\, University of Pennsylvania) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Communication at Rutgers University\, New Brunswick. Her research focuses on reducing racial inequities in HIV incidence through community-engaged\, applied communication science. She develops\, implements\, and evaluates theoretically grounded communication interventions focused on impacting and overcoming individual and social-structural barriers to HIV prevention. This research is informed by and developed in close collaboration with community partners. Her expertise includes qualitative (i.e. focus groups) and quantitative (i.e. surveys\, experiments) data collection and analytical methods. Her research has been funded through various institutional\, non-profit (i.e.\, MAC AIDS Fund) and governmental mechanisms (i.e.\, NIH\, CDC) and published in communication and public health journals. Her rigorous\, theoretically grounded\, collaborative approach to research informs health communication theorizing and practice.

SUMMARY:It's Getting Hot in Here 🔥: CCHH Climate and Health Series
DESCRIPTION:‘It’s Getting Hot in Here 🔥: Climate and Health Series’ hosted by the Center for Climate\, Health\, and Healthcare\n  \nDaniel Mork\, PhD\, Research Scientist in the Department of Biostatistics at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health \n“Distributed lag models: Applications and recent methodological advances for the study of heat and human health” \nThis talk introduces several advances in distributed lag model methodology for analyzing health impacts due to environmental exposures. I introduce Bayesian structured regression tree distributed lag models\, with approaches for environmental mixtures and exploring heterogeneous effects. I discuss specific applications of distributed lag models to the analysis of heat and impacts on cognitive function or neurological disorders. \nLocation: 5th Floor Conference Room at IFH\, 112 Paterson Street\, New Brunswick & Via Zoom \nhttps://rutgers.zoom.us/j/91037788093?pwd=c38MaXiC5QW5spc9fVHT9uYwKLSdgY.1&from=addon \n  \n

SUMMARY:NJ ACTS Special Populations Seminar: Dr. Kei Ouchi
DESCRIPTION:Kei Ouchi\, MD\, MPH\, Associate Physician\, Emergency Department\, Harvard Medical School/Brigham and Women’s Hospital & Affiliate Faculty\, Department of Psychosocial Oncology and Palliative Care\, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute \n“Palliative Care in the Emergency Department: Science of Caring” \nThis seminar explores the foundational rationale and clinical necessity of implementing early palliative care within emergency medicine to align critical treatments with individual patient goals. By examining the emergency department (ED) as a pivotal “space in time” for patients facing crises\, the seminar highlights recent key studies and outlines future directions. \nBio: Kei Ouchi\, MD\, MPH is a clinician-scientist and clinically active as an associate physician in the emergency department (ED) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Dr. Ouchi is dual board-certified in Emergency Medicine and Internal Medicine and is an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Ouchi is dedicated to transforming care for seriously ill older adults by bridging emergency medicine\, palliative care\, and transitional care. He envisions the ED as a critical gateway for identifying patients near the end of life and initiating timely\, patient-centered care. Dr. Ouchi’s research focuses on identifying older adults who would benefit from advance care planning conversations and empowering them to formulate their goals for medical care in the ED. Dr. Ouchi teaches evidence-based\, palliative care communication training locally\, nationally\, and internationally. \nRegister to attend via Zoom: https://go.rutgers.edu/q1vzaqeb \n
