In this episode of Vital Psychedelic Conversations, David interviews Rachelle Sampson, Ph.D.: researcher and founder of Blue Prism Coaching; and Bennet Zelner, Ph.D.: researcher, speaker, and creator of the Pollination Approach. They are both Vital instructors and Associate Professors at the Robert H. Smith School of Business, University of Maryland. Based on a passion for regenerative economics (how we might be able to apply patterns of nature to socioeconomic systems), they are co-leading the Connected Leadership Study, a research project tracking how psychedelic experiences can facilitate change in people in leadership positions. They believe that a shift from a mechanistic attunement to a more synergistic recognition of our interconnectedness should lead to new ways of thinking, resulting in more creative leaders with better decision-making and team-building skills, and corporate culture caring more about values, regenerative models, equity, and sustainability – all while still being successful. They wonder: Can psychedelic experiences create better leaders? Can capitalism become more conscious? They discuss: The structure of the study, what they learned in the first cohort, and why they track participants for a yea How change happens over time, and why they believe it to needs to happen from the bottom u The concept of emergence and emergent change illustrated by the shifts in movement of a flock of bird How synergistic attunement can be traced back to the cellular level The challenge of balancing the therapeutic aspect of psychedelics with the more corporate strategy/professional side and more! The study's next cohort begins in October, so if you're a business leader interested in being a participant, head to Leaders.study for more info. And if you'd like to learn more about these concepts, the new Regenerative Business and Leadership specialization path in this year's cohort of Vital digs deep into this world. And we've just extended the applications to Sept. 2, so you still have time to apply! For links, head to the show notes page.

In Spring of 2020, the Davidson Microaggressions Project published a guest blog co-written by two members of the Student Government Association's Academics Committee, Julia Bauer and Wren Healy, on the topic of anonymous grading as one concrete strategy that professors can implement to combat bias and support disenfranchised students in their classes. As a follow up to the blog, DMP presents a series of podcast interviews with Davidson College professors who use anonymous grading as one way that they intentionally focus on inclusivity in their classrooms. Tune in to hear Davidson faculty members discuss how and why they employ anonymous grading as a key part of their inclusive pedagogy in this last set of podcasts in 2020. Last up, we have an interview with Drs. Bes Ceka & Andrew O'Geen, Associate Professors of Political Science!

Today's episode features Anne Kaun, as Associate Professors at Södertörn University in the Department of Culture and Education, co-editor of Making Time for Digital Lives, and the author of Crisis and Critique: A Brief History of Media Participation in Times of Crisis. We discuss her co-authored article with Fredrik Stiernstedt entitled “Prison Media Work: From Manual Labor to the Work of Being Tracked,” from Media, Culture & Society. We discuss both the historical and global trends in the relationship between prison work and media infrastructures. Anne examines both the traditions of prison labor in building media as part of ,rehabilitation and professionalization, but also how it has evolved under neoliberal transformations to no longer reflect these goals. Most pointedly, she takes us through the new role of work for prisoners: acting as subjects for data analysis by large private companies looking to strengthen their algorithmic computation. Prisoners no longer do media work themselves as much as are a subject of being worked upon by media. In bringing light to this history, Kaun brings light to the complex network we live in that in many ways is shaped by prisons and the incarcerated without our knowledge.

We talk about the series 'Fleabag,' written by and starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge. We discuss the title character as a comedic anti-hero who acts against the normative understanding of femininity in the 21st century. We examine the structure of the show, which begins as a raunchy comedy and evolves into an exploration of grief and forgiveness. We also explore the show’s relationship with contemporary feminism and the demands it makes of women. We’re joined by doctors Sarah Hagelin and Gillian Silverman, Associate Professors of English at CU Denver, as well as CU Denver students Brittney Finley, Alyssa Haskel, and Kamesh Saba.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the nature of education in ways that few other events could. Adopting technology to work, live and learn from home while staying distant from others has affected millions. A recent instalment of the Asia Thinker Series (After the Pandemic) moderated by Associate Professor Suzaina Kadir, Vice Dean of Academic Affairs at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, discussed what is in store for education in the post-COVID-19 era. After the session, Global-is-Asian caught up with Associate Professor Suzaina Kadir as well as Associate Professor in Practice Francesco Mancini, Associate Dean of Executive Education programmes at the school.

On this episode: part one of our extended conversation on the limits and possibilities of journalism. And these days, we hear little about the latter, a lot about the former—even before COVID-19 took its toll on the industry. Some blame media companies’ downfall on the digital: the interwebs and smartphones shredding the business model of now-obsolete oligopolies. And yet, it’s not all cause for techno-driven doom and gloom. In fact, there are those who believe digital might actually be a doorway to better journalism, especially for those audiences legacy outlets have failed to reach, much less represent. Among the hopeful: Candis Callison and Mary Lynn Young, Associate Professors at UBC's School of Journalism, Writing and Media and the co-authors of Reckoning: Journalism’s Limits and Possibilities, a book about the media moment we’re living through, a time where crisis and opportunity co-exist. // MUSIC: Our theme is ‘nesting’ by birocratic.

In this episode of the TTPod we look at the growth of backyarding and so-called, “micro" units within many urban areas of South Africa and the economic and accommodation opportunities they afford. Our research journey takes us to Gauteng and the Western Cape – to the banks of Alexandra, Johannesburg and the historic Orlando and Zola in Soweto. It brings us south to the Cape Flats, to Khayelitsha and Delft South where we learn of the challenges and opportunities alike for owners, builder and the regulators. When we think new cities – shouldn’t we be thinking of this, in terms of the aesthetic, the density, the supply, the gaps these typologies fill? If that IS the case what is the role of the regulator and municipalities in terms of building control, social and physical infrastructure, safety etc.? This fourth episode of our "deep-dive" series: "We've GOT to talk about housing!" - 26 years and counting... considers research and findings into these modes of delivery and looks at some commonalties, differences, opportunities and shortcomings. We are joined by Associate Professors at Wits University: Sarah Charlton and Margot Rubin the School of Architecture and Planning and Rob McGaffin – Researcher at the UCT Urban Real Estates Unit.

All sports everywhere are canceled.  Sorry.  You're going to have to get your entertainment elsewhere.  Like in Kate's book, which while it was written by a sports commentator - or sports princess, depending on who you ask - is not about sports.  At least not entirely.  You could also watch Babies, a show Libby is featured on, because she apparently does everything.  How many people do you know who are Associate Professors and x-ray the bones of babies who died thousands of years ago?  Probably not many. https://dealyourowndestiny.com

Lori La Bey talks with researchers heading up a Megathon to push Alzheimer's Research ahead one year by getting 100,000 people to play the game "Stall Catchers" for one hour.  The Megathon will occur April13th, 2019 at 1:30pm - 3:30pm ET. Listen in and learn about the fascinating work of Chris Schaffer and Nozomi Nishimura who are Associate Professors at the Meinig School of Bio-medical Engineering at Cornell University, and run the Schaffer-Nishimura Lab. Their lab develops new imaging techniques that allow them to see blood flow in the brains of mice, which led to the discovery of stalls. By another unanticipated discovery, they were able to show that by removing these stalls improved memory and reduced other Alzheimer's symptoms in mice. Pietro Michelucci is a cognitive scientist who directs the Human Computation Institute, which is the research center that developed crowd-powered systems to tackle big societal problems like Alzheimer's. In 2015, he launched the EyesOnALZ citizen science project to accelerate Alzheimer’s disease research, with an online game called Stall Catchers, that allows anyone to participate directly in the search for a treatment. Also joining us are Judy Johanson who was a care partner for her husband and Harry Urban, living with dementia. Read Full Press Release PlayStallCatchers.comanytime.

To kick off season 12, Lab Out Loud looks for inspiration in science education from an unlikely classroom setting - within the juvenile justice system. Michael Krezmien and Martina Nieswandt (both Associate Professors at the University of Massachusetts Amherst) join co-hosts Brian Bartel and Dale Basler to talk about Project RAISE: Reclaiming Access to Inquiry-based Science Education. Developed with the help of a three million dollar NSF grant, Project RAISE delivers an innovative digital biology curriculum to incarcerated students in the Massachusetts juvenile justice system. Through a unique iPad app developed by Project RAISE that adheres to principles of universal design for learning (UDL), students engage with science through project-based inquiry activities and virtual laboratory experiences. Listen to the show to hear more about Project RAISE, how it addresses challenging factors within the justice system and how it adapts the learning environment for various learning styles and educational needs.

As you recall in episode 110, I interviewed at the intro to food science class in NCSU and had a blast. Now we continue with Dr. Gabriel Keith Harris’ story. Like many, his path to food science was unconventional, though he’s always had an interest with food, he went through the dietetics path until someone said he was interested in food science! Gabe’s main focus in the academic world is how food is processed through the gut. So get ready for an exciting episode where you’ll learn all about coffee and chocolate, inflammation of the gut, and how you can be a perpetual learner.

Shownotes NCSU Interview Marie Gibbons (spoiler) Don Schaffner Ben Chapman When someone asks what you do for a living, what do you tell them?: I teach food science and nutrition scientice. I teach at the food science and bioprocessing department Bioprocessing: pharmacy, brewery, fermentation, etc Dr. John Sheppard Cal Poly-My school is lumped into Nutrition, we are Food Science and Nutrition Dr. Chris Albert – Dean at Missouri Pharmaceuticals is bleeding into food science so we combine the two Keith’s Area of expertise: What happens when you eat food, particularly plant foods. I get to study chocolate and coffee and see what’s in there. Chocolate benefits: 1000s of years of anecdotal evidence that chocolate was a medicine. Lewis and Clark Coffee isn’t quite as extensive: Arab scholars and coffee houses might have spirred the enlightenment. Prop 65: Coffee as a carcinogen May prevent type 2 diabetes, or Parkinson’s. 3 cups a days Study about not drinking something first thing in the mornings Coffee Chocolate – Tierra Nueva Chocolate Coffee Raw Cacao It’s no surprise that people are drinking cacao. This was its original intent Steps it took to get to where you are today: I grew up with an interest in food and health. Then I joined the navy. In college, I did a bachelor’s of dietetics. I met a professor who moved to food science and he convinced me to go to IFT. The first people I met were NC State Graduate students. I went to the expo floor and ate everything Food Toxicology – Dr. Steve Schwartz. He invited me to be a part of his lab at Ohio state. Cancer center at Ohio State Post-Doc: Center for disease control and prevention. Spent 3 years on how cells deal with inflammation. Inflammatory: How do you feel inflamed?: It’s our body’s immune response like an injury, or sprain. It does good, but can also do harm Low-level inflammation in the gut: You probably can’t feel it. The signals that are produced might be damaging Tenure process: The tenure process is the idea that you arrive as an assistant professor. You set up shop and your work shows that your work is vital. After 5 years, you make a giant packet that shows that you’re worthy to senior faculty. Then you get to Associate Professors. You then have a board of professors from all schools evaluate you to get tenure. Most important skill in the industry: The idea to always keep growing. When you graduate, you are not done. Treat your students to prepare themselves 5 years old. Things change so quickly in terms of how knowledge is communicated and how things work. How do you convince students to learn beyond what’s expected?: Being enthusiastic really helps. Also bringing professionals to talk to students where all of the voices are saying the same thing to push students forward. Why does hour food job rock: I get to give back to the people who taught me to be a great food scientist. I also get to eat my experiments. Food is right there and everyone eats What type of food trends and technologies are really exciting to you?: Sustainability. An example is consuming insects will be the norm. Also Clean Meats and fermentation. Another trend is automation. Where are my students are going to work? The speed the food industry is automating is impressive. The contrast to automation is artisan. Hyperlocal production Vegan trends vs meat trends What is one thing in the food industry you’d like to know more about?: I’m really fascinated by engineering. Just watching these machines astounds me. Fermentation:  how to get these microbes to make something for you? What do you think is the best way to learn more about it?: To visit as many food companies as possible. Watching how a large company vs a small company produces food. In general, the food industry experts are quite gracious in sharing knowledge. In food science, there seems to be a desire or willingness to share information. It's easier to be friends with people than enemies with people in the food industry In my graduate years, I wish I could have networked with them in the food industry. At the end of the class, we have students get dressed and be technically interviewed Favorite book: the bible, For reading and rereading: The Hobbit. Kitchen Item: rubber spatula Pancake culture: flatbreads, tortillas, naan Bread and beer are a result of noticing things Vanilla and chocolate fermentation is a bit tougher Do you have any advice for anyone who wants to get into your industry: Go on more food tours to give people a sense of what to look for. You should also visit universities. Where can we find you for advice: Through linkedin. Also via email. Contact me at gkharris@ncu.edu
