SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Mind Matters: AI and Mental Health Risks
DESCRIPTION:From schools and workplaces to the phones in our pockets\, AI tools are everywhere. As more people use generative AI tools like ChatGPT\, Claude\, and others in their daily lives\, concerns are rising among mental health and technology researchers about how these tools can affect the way we think and feel—not necessarily for the better. \n\nJoin us as experts from the University of Michigan Department of Psychiatry and School of Information discuss the risks of using AI tools and chatbots when it comes to our mental health and wellbeing. They will break down how this technology can negatively impact our mental health\, what mental health workers are seeing with their patients in the real world\, and what we can all do to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe. By avoiding the pitfalls of these technologies\, we can prevent these tools from hijacking our attention in unproductive ways that hold us back from living our lives fully.\n\nThis event is brought to you in partnership with the Alumni Association of the University of Michigan.\n\nWebinar on May 5\, 7:00pm - 8:30pm\nRegister here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_sYcOP0pkTz-kK99SnYbnEw#/registration\n\nSpeakers:\n1.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Mini Symposium Series: Lessons from the Blue Zones
DESCRIPTION:Since the dawn of time\, humans have searched for the fountain of youth.  Globally\, people spend trillions of dollars on wellness and longevity.  We are endlessly searching for the secret to extending the quality and length of our lives.  \n\nBut what if some people had already found the secret? And\, what if they are living longer without even trying? \n\nThat is what Dan Buettner believes he has uncovered in the blue zones.  \n\nWe will be sitting down with the New York Times best-selling author and National Geographic fellow for the next installment of our Mini Symposium Series\, Lessons from the Blue Zones\, on Friday\, May 8\, at 2 p.m. via Zoom.  We will learn about what makes the blue zones so special and how we can incorporate their secrets into our everyday lives. \n\nFollowing her conversation with Dan Buettner\, Dr. Eva L. Feldman will be joined by Michigan Medicine’s own experts — Drs. David Conroy and Donovan Maust— for a live panel discussion\, during which they will also field audience questions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Inside the Study
DESCRIPTION:Go behind the scenes with the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Program for \"Inside the Study\,\" a new webinar that gives an “under the hood” look at Prechter Program studies: what they’re designed to learn\, what participation is like\, what the team is finding so far\, and what’s coming next. On Monday\, May 18\, 2026\, from 6:00-7:30 PM ET\, the first \"Inside the Study\" webinar will spotlight BD²: Breakthrough Discoveries for Thriving with Bipolar Disorder.\n\nIn 2023\, the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Program was named as one of the six inaugural institutions in the BD² Integrated Network to engage people living with bipolar disorder in a long-term research study and build a rich database to better understand the condition\, its treatment\, and to support improvements in care. The BD² Integrated Network has since expanded its clinical sites to 11 institutions across the United States and Canada. Along with the long-term studies and databases\, the BD² Integrated Network sites are working together to design and implement a Learning Health Network (LHN) for bipolar disorder.\n\nWebinar attendees will learn more about the Prechter Program's role in the BD²: Integrated Network\, including team member's contributions to building the Learning Health Network and will hear from a BD² study participant.\n\nThis webinar is open to everyone interested in learning more about the BD²: Breakthrough Discoveries for Thriving with Bipolar Disorder study.
