You\u2019re Going to Need to Get Critical\r\n\r\nAbstract: \r\nCritical theories \u2014 think, intersectionality, critical race theory, structural racism, for example \u2014 are those that expose, interrogate, and challenge power by highlighting the social, structural, political, and economic determinants of health. Critical approaches offer a stark contrast to the primarily individualistic, biomedical, psychosocial theories and frameworks that still dominate most doctoral social and behavioral science programs. With a handful of exceptions, people\u2019s thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors about HIV testing, condom use, PrEP, and HAART adherence remain the primary focus of doctoral-level HIV education. Structural and political determinants of health, and the constraints they impose on the ability of groups historically marginalized at multiple intersections (e.g., racialized\/ minoritized, sexual and\/or gender minority, and low SES) to engage in health promoting behaviors are rarely a focus of doctoral training. But they should be. The indomitable Audre Lorde admonished that the \u201cMaster\u2019s tools will not dismantle the Master\u2019s house.\u201d This is also true of conventional approaches to HIV prevention and treatment research. More than four decades into the HIV epidemic and despite PrEP and HAART, HIV still disproportionately affects Black and Latino gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men, transgender and nonbinary people, and Black and Latina women who have sex with men. These intersectional HIV inequities spotlight a dire need for a more critical approach to Ending the HIV Epidemic, than the conventional theoretical approaches used thus far. This talk will address what it means to get critical about HIV prevention and treatment research, some strategies for doing so, and why SOAR students should consider critical and structural perspectives to be essential to their future HIV research careers.\r\n\r\nSYMPOSIUM DETAILS:\r\nAccessibility Alert: We are asking all attendees to avoid wearing fragranced personal products (like perfume or scented lotions) to accommodate attendees with fragrance allergies.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don\u2019t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.\u00a0\u00a0\n \nIn this online exhibition, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum\u2019s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery, which will open in early 2021, you\u2019ll be able to experience the changes we\u2019re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history.\u00a0\n \nBy challenging our own practice, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles, and fails to settle for, simple narratives.\u00a0\n \n\u201cInvisible things are not necessarily \u2018not there\u2019....

A few years ago, the cost of sequencing genomes was prohibitively expensive. However, with advancements in technology and economies of scale, the prices have significantly dropped. As a result, we are now able to sequence the genomes of hundreds of species using techniques such as exon capture, genome skimming, and soon chromosome-level genomes. Our current challenge lies in bridging the gap between traditional museum collections and modern genetic research. This integration opens new avenues for scientific discovery and conservation efforts, ultimately contributing to our understanding of biodiversity and ecosystem conservation.\r\n\r\nIn this presentation, I'll take you on a journey through my career, highlighting the pivotal role of museum personnel and museum specimens in shaping my interdisciplinary research program focused on the evolution and systematics of marine fishes, with an emphasis on gadiforms and other commercially important species. Utilizing voucher specimens and associated materials such as tissue samples and otoliths, I am investigating how evolutionary patterns and the underwater environment influence the genomic diversity and connectivity of marine fishes. These findings are communicated to management agencies and other stakeholders, providing valuable insights for monitoring and conservation projects. Additionally, I will emphasize how my research intertwines with outreach and education efforts, aiming to not only advance scientific knowledge but also foster a sense of stewardship for our oceans within and beyond the museum walls.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"120478-21844806@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/120478", "building_id":"1000812", "building_name":"Research Museums Center", "campus_maps_id":"533", "room":"RMC Demo Room", "location_name":"Research Museums Center", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["AEM Featured","Biology","Biosciences","Bsbsigns","department of ecology and evolutionary biology","Discussion","ecology","Ecology & Biology","Ecology And Evolutionary Biology","eeb","Herbarium","Museum Of Zoology","zoology"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Ecology and Evolutionary Biology", "group_id":"1190", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Program in Biology", "group_id":"3783", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"EEB Thursday Seminars", "group_id":"3822", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Research Museums Center", "group_id":"4159", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/03\/crop-event_120478_original-1.jpeg" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21844806 } }
