SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How to Model Science as a Complex System
DESCRIPTION:Tracing the historical dynamics of science can reveal how scientific knowledge emerges and evolves over time. Because scientific knowledge is embedded in increasingly complex systems\, comprising shifting relationships among people\, the organisms and matter they study\, technology\, data\, publications\, and the concepts they utilize\, scholars are looking beyond traditional historiographical methods towards quantitative and computational tools. Big data\, network analysis\, and machine learning enhance the scale and speed of analysis\, but these methods often ignore or erase the critical roles that context (like time period\, geography\, and discipline) and different types of data (like image and audio data) play in the development of new knowledge. In this talk\, I present context- and data-sensitive computational methods that extend efforts to model the evolution of science as a complex system. These methods reveal when new knowledge emerges and how the features of old scientific information constrain features of new scientific knowledge.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:WISE & Shine
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in becoming a peditrician or passionate about public health? Join us for a networking brunch with local physician\, Rachel Nash\, MD\, CLS\, MPH\, FAAP. Dr. Nash is a board-certified pediatrician based in Livonia\, Michigan. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Integrative Physiology and Psychology before completing a Master’s Degree in Public Health\, blending clinical expertise with a strong foundation in population health. Dr. Nash completed her pediatric residency at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus\, Ohio\, where she further developed her commitment to comprehensive\, evidence-based care for children and adolescents.\nDr. Nash’s professional interests extend beyond the clinic and she is excited to meet with students considering medical school/graduate school or careers in public health. Her educational and scholarly work focuses on trainee advocacy\, injury prevention\, adolescent transitions of care\, health equity\, and addressing the social determinants of health. Through both her clinical practice and academic pursuits\, Dr. Nash is passionate about creating systems of care that support all children and families\, ensuring healthier futures for the communities she serves.
