Culture facilitates human interaction by providing meaning to lived experience. Accounting for culture in both theories and methods potentially advances the study of health by connecting the macro and micro levels of human experience. Yet, culture should be understood as dynamic and complex. It fundamentally shapes individuals and simultaneously is shaped by individuals. The importance of systematically attending to culture includes topics of values, language, immigration, and society.\n\nTheories and methods that incorporate culture hold great potential for advancing the understanding of health outcomes and health trajectories in various global contexts.\n\nThe speakers for this series will focus on various aspects of culture and diverse groups living in the U.S. and across the globe to address the ways in which attending to culture helps clarify and overcome challenges to good health.\n\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920\u2019s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer\/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization, evolution and human behavior, and cultural psychology.\n\nIn person: ISR Thompson 6050, unless otherwise specified.\nOrganized by Kristine Ajrouch and Sela Panapasa\nEvents are not recorded.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"149693-21906959@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/149693", "building_id":"1000145", "building_name":"Institute For Social Research", "campus_maps_id":"76", "room":"Room 6050", "location_name":"Institute For Social Research", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Emotions","Social Science","Research","Health & Wellness","Ecology"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD)", "group_id":"4836", "website":"https:\/\/rcgd.isr.umich.edu\/" }, { "group_name":"Institute for Social Research", "group_id":"3285", "website":"http:\/\/isr.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Survey Research Center", "group_id":"5063", "website":"https:\/\/src.isr.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/07\/event_149693_original-1.png" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21906959 } , "152530-21913887": { "datetime_modified":"20261026T134319", "datetime_start":"20261102T160000", "datetime_end":"20261102T180000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-11-02", "date_end":"2026-11-02", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"18:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Depressed Mothers and Rebellious Sons: Relationships in the History of American Mood Disorders", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Depressed Mothers and Rebellious Sons: Relationships in the History of American Mood Disorders: Laura Hirshbein, U-M", "event_subtitle":"Laura Hirshbein, U-M", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"The formal diagnosis of adult major depressive disorder emerged in the 1970s in the context of research with medication, though disagreement about whether children could experience depression was not resolved until the 1980s and 1990s. Many critics and scholars have interrogated the construction of psychiatric diagnosis in the United States. This talk will attend to the relationships that formed the backdrop in depression research, especially between depressed mothers and their rebellious sons. In the process of creating purportedly objective categories of illness, relationship dynamics were redefined as genetic propensity, while the brain was located as a value-neutral site, away from social context.\n\nLaura Hirshbein, MD, PhD is the George E Wantz MD Distinguished Professor of the History of Medicine at the University of Michigan.
