SUMMARY:Institute for Health Seminar with Dr. Johanna Schoen
DESCRIPTION:Rutgers Institute for Health\, Health Care Policy and Aging Research Seminar \nfeaturing \nDr. Johanna Schoen\, Distinguished Professor of History\, Rutgers University \n“The Pain Debate in Neonatology” \n📅 Tuesday\, April 7 12:00pm \n🏢💻 Conference Room 120\, 112 Paterson Street\, New Brunswick & Via Zoom \nUntil the mid-1980s\, most premature infants undergoing surgery in the US did not receive anesthesia or any kind of pain control. In the mid-1980’s\, parents of NICU infants mounted a publicity campaign to draw attention to this practice and a handful of clinicians began to conduct research demonstrating that premature infants felt pain and could be safely medicated. But it took another decade for clinical practice to change in a meaningful way. This talk will analyze the practice and debate surrounding unanesthetized infant surgery.

SUMMARY:It's getting hot in here: Climate & Health Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:“BMI = Body Mass Index\, or more like Bad Measure Ick”\nAayush Visaria\, MD\, MPH\, Core Member\, Rutgers Center for Climate\, Health\, and Healthcare & Instructor\, Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School \nOn April 7th\, I invite you to believe that BMI is destiny\, that two people with the same body size share the same cardiometabolic future\, and that adiposity is merely a matter of mass. Then\, we will tear that down and entertain the idea that kilograms per meter squared does not capture the biological complexity of obesity. This seminar will present epidemiologic evidence demonstrating that fat distribution\, ectopic deposition\, tissue quality\, inflammatory signaling\, and redox biology all shape metabolic risk and that misrepresentation of adiposity may exacerbate disparities. \nHybrid seminar held at IFH in the 5th Floor Conference Room and via Zoom: \n\n\n\nMeeting URL:\nhttps://rutgers.zoom.us/j/99475027371?pwd=4wnLfqFoDrGAgnnrh98aye33uG4XdC.1&from=addon\n\n\nMeeting ID:\n994 7502 7371\n\n\nPasscode:\n327202

SUMMARY:Institute for Health Seminar with Dr. Jeremy Greene
DESCRIPTION:Rutgers Institute for Health Seminar\nfeaturing\nJeremy Greene\, MD\, PhD of Johns Hopkins University\n“After the Single Use: Rethinking the Past\, Present\, and Future of Plastics in Healthcare”\nRegister to attend this seminar. \n  \nLocation: In-Person at Rutgers Institute for Health\, Conference Room 120\, 112 Paterson Street\, New Brunswick\, NJ \nVia Zoom (upon registration\, you will receive Zoom details) \n  \nDr. Greene is William H. Welch Professor of Medicine and History of Medicine and Director\, of the Institute of the History of Medicine and the founding Director of the Center for Medical Humanities and Social Medicine at Johns Hopkins University. His research explores the ways in which medical technologies come to influence our understandings of what it means to be sick or healthy\, normal or abnormal\, on personal\, regional\, and global scales. His newest research project\, Syringe Tide: Disposable Technologies and the Making of Medical Waste focuses on the scientific\, social\, and economic basis of the shift towards disposable technologies in hospitals and clinics. \n“After the Single Use: Rethinking the Past\, Present\, and Future of Plastics in Healthcare” \nThe modern medical enterprise is distinctively wasteful.  This may seem to result inevitably from the hazardous nature of medical substances\, whose infection risk\, chemical toxicity\, or radioactivity accordingly require specialized modes of management.  Yet only 15% of global healthcare wastes fit this specialized profile.  The remaining 85% are simply materials that have been built to be disposable rather than reusable\, a staggering volume of single-use items that emit toxins and carbon dioxide when incinerated\, give off methane and other greenhouse gasses while decomposing in landfills\, or\, if they escape these two fates\, float on the surface of the oceans. \nIt was not always this way.  In a relatively short period of time\, we have naturalized the use of single-use plastics in healthcare—and then forgotten there was ever any alternative.  In this talk\, physician-historian Jeremy Greene traces the links between environmental history\, the history of technology\, and the  role that the global healthcare sector now plays in contributing to climate change and plastic waste—and in innovating new solutions to envision more sustainable forms of healthcare.  By attending closely to the historical and social context in which medicine became wasteful\, Greene’s talk offers ways to unseat medical waste as a natural category and reconsider it as the outcome of a set of value decisions we have made in the past\, and can change in the future.

SUMMARY:It's getting hot in here: Climate & Health Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:“CCHH Metabolism Series Presents Fight Club Round 1: Seed Oils — Friend or Foe?”\nSoko Setoguchi\, MD\, DrPH\, Director\, Rutgers Center for Climate\, Health\, & Healthcare; Professor of Medicine & Epidemiology\, RWJMS & Rutgers School of Public Health \nAayush Visaria\, MD\, MPH\, Core Member\, Rutgers Center for Climate\, Health\, and Healthcare & Instructor\, Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School \nWelcome to the inaugural Fight Club\, where we spar with numbers\, not fists. In Round 1 of this series\, we take on one of nutrition’s most polarizing topics: seed oils – in or out? Join us for a lively\, evidence-driven debate as we put claims\, studies\, and strong opinions to the test. Expect sharp arguments\, thoughtful discussion\, and plenty of data-driven punches\, to ultimately decide whether seed oils deserve a place on the plate — or a knockout from the pantry. \nHybrid seminar held in the Clinical Academic Building Room 3403\, 125 Paterson Street\, and via Zoom. \nRegister in advance for this meeting: https://rutgers.zoom.us/meeting/register/onDwElZeT-iMm9lgHlhBBA
