Dr. Mitchell joined the University of Florida in 2015 as a Preeminence Professor of Neuroscience in the Department of Physical Therapy and McKnight Brain Institute. He founded and directs the UF Center for Breathing Research and Therapeutics (BREATHE) and the NIH-funded graduate and postdoctoral training program of the same name. A major focus of BREATHE is to understand and treat impaired breathing and airway defense (swallowing/cough) caused by neuromuscular injury or disease. Dr. Mitchell also serves as Deputy Director of the UF McKnight Brain Institute. For the past three decades, Dr. Mitchell pioneered studies of neuroplasticity in the neural system controlling breathing. Areas of active investigation include: intracellular and intercellular mechanisms of long-lasting respiratory motor plasticity triggered by repeated exposure to brief episodes of low oxygen (intermittent hypoxia), the ability to harness that intermittent hypoxia-induced spinal plasticity to treat respiratory and non-respiratory paralysis following spinal injury and during motor neuron disease (ALS), cell-based strategies to treat breathing deficits, and the impact of systemic inflammation on breathing and its control. Investigations span intracellular, intercellular and physiological systems level mechanisms, and translation to humans with acquired or neurodegenerative neurological disorders (SCI and ALS). Dr. Mitchell grew up in California where he received his B.S. (Biological Sciences) and PhD (Developmental and Cell Biology) degrees from the University of California at Irvine. After two years of post-doctoral training at the Max Planck Institute for Experimental Medicine in Goettingen, Germany, he moved to the University of Wisconsin-Madison. After one year as a postdoc, Dr. Mitchell became an Assistant Professor in 1981, and then the ranks to become Professor and Chair of the Department of Comparative Biosciences (17 years) and director of the NIH funded Respiratory Neurobiology Training Program (14 years). He chose to leave the University of Wisconsin for the opportunity to join the University of Florida and create the BREATHE Center. Dr. Mitchell has been recognized for his research and teaching accomplishments, including a National Institutes of Health MERIT Award, the Norden Distinguished Teacher Award, the Pfizer Research Award on multiple occasions, the Steenbock Professorship for Behavioral and Neural Science, and distinguished lectureships from the Society for Neuroscience (SFN), American Physiological Society (APS), Association of Chairs of Departments of Physiology (ACDP), American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA), and the Oxford Conference for Modeling and the Control of Breathing.

Ab Mitte der 1980er Jahre feierte Rio Reiser eine triumphale Solokarriere. „König von Deutschland“, „Junimond“ und das dazugehörige Album „Rio I.“ verkauften sich gut. Rio Reiser wurde noch einmal einer neuen Generation bekannt. Mit seiner Poesie, seinem Witz und seiner Melancholie erreichte er ein Millionenpublikum. Konzerte, die er stets barfuß spielte, waren voll besucht. Denkwürdig war zum Beispiel sein Auftritt beim Konzert gegen die Wiederaufbereitungsanlage in Wackersdorf und sein Konzert in Ost-Berlin 1988. Das Lied „Der Traum ist aus“ bekam hier in der Spätphase der DDR eine ganz neue Bedeutung. Die Nachfolgealben waren nicht so erfolgreich wie „Rio I.“, dennoch wurde er ein fester Bestandteil der Musikszene, verbunden und befreundet mit vielen maßgeblichen Akteurinnen und Akteuren. Auf den folgenden Alben wechselten sich sehnsuchtsvolle Liebeslieder, rockige Zeitbetrachtungen und Balladen voller Melancholie ab. Rio Reiser spielte in einigen Filmen mit und schrieb eine erste Autobiographie. Irgendwann nahmen seine gesundheitlichen Probleme zu, Alkohol und anderen Drogen hatten ihm stark zugesetzt. Tourneen mussten abgesagt werden. In einem letzten Album, das „Himmel und Hölle“ hieß, blitzte noch einmal sein großes Können auf. Rio Reiser starb im August 1996 im Alter von 46 Jahren. Diese Folge von Urban Pop wurde im Rahmen des Göttinger Literaturherbstes vor Publikum aufgezeichnet.

Lars holds an MBA from HHL Handelshochschule Leipzig, a Master's degree in Banking from the Frankfurt School of Finance as well as a Master in Economics from University of Goettingen. Highlights from the Show Lars is a Vice President at Capgemini, and was part of the work in their annual World Insurance Report, which focused on the future of mobility insurance in the 2023 edition The question is around what the shifting patterns of mobility mean to insurance, and how insurers can start to take actions today to prepare for a movement from insurance the asset of mobility today, a car, to the experience of mobility tomorrow across different modalities and moments, even if people don't own cars They also look at how we break from the interactive pattern of product development to truly creating coverage that insureds need as their situations evolve Innovation has struggled in the industry often because the people responsible for it are separate from the main business, so they struggle to get new ideas into the core of the business For example, if we look at embedding insurance into mobility, it's looking at mobility itself as a service, and then thinking about how an insurer can be helpful across the experience and not just in offering coverage; are there ways the insurer can help coordinate mobility or provide safety guidance and support throughout a journey across different modalities, etc? The nature of what is being insured is changing, and CG talks about ACES - Autonomous, Connected, Electric and Shared - when they talk about vehicles in the future They see 8x growth for this space, while traditional Auto/Motor insurance will still be there, but will retract The nature of risk is changing, too, where it's not just about Auto Liability, but also software and cyber security risks as cars are connected and software-defined They think carriers should think about 4 things What is the value proposition carriers should think about offering in the future, and is it based on actual customer behavior and not what we say their behavior is? How do we use that value proposition to change our business model? What culture and capabilities do we need to have to support this model? What is the risk management we need around these new products?

MDJ  Script/ Top Stories for May 13th Saturday Publish Date: May 12, Friday   Henssler :15,  Bed Music fires From the Henssler Financial Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast    Today is Saturday May the 13th, and happy 40th birthday to long time NFL rusher Frank Gore ***highlight*** I'm Brian Giffin and here are the top stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia Marietta gives developer 4 months to revise plan for downtown building Lewis Wheaton resigns from Smyrna City Council And Cobb County School District honors school nurses We'll have all this and more on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.   Commercial : CU of GA STORY 1  Bridger   The Marietta City Council voted unanimously to give Bridger Properties four months to revise its proposal for a seven-story residential building downtown. The developer's application is still pending, and the council requested Bridger to hold town halls and gather input from residents before submitting new plans. The city's Historic Board of Review previously recommended denying Bridger's design. Mayor Steve Tumlin expressed the need for the project to comply with city code. Bridger, an Atlanta-based developer, does not require rezoning but needs the council's approval due to the property's location in the downtown historic district. The possibility of litigation remains, but both parties expressed a willingness to negotiate. STORY 2: Wheaton ** Christian Jamar Harris, a 32-year-old man from Acworth, Georgia,  was arrested on April 27 for possessing over 100 videos of Lewis Wheaton, a professor at Georgia Tech's School of Biological Sciences and the Ward 7 city councilman in Smyrna, has resigned from his position after moving out of the area he represented. Wheaton had been in the position since 2019 and announced his resignation at the Smyrna City Council's May 1 meeting, citing "happy and unexpected life circumstances." Despite moving out of the ward, Wheaton and his family will still reside in the city. The Smyrna City Council is now working on a plan to replace Wheaton before the November election when his former seat is on the ballot.Top of Form       Story 3: Nurses   On May 10, the Cobb County School District recognized National School Nurse Day by honoring their school nurses for their essential role in promoting student health and ensuring readiness for learning. In addition to providing onsite healthcare services, school nurses address social determinants of health, promote wellness, and improve health outcomes for students. They also mentor and train new nurses and attend conferences for continuing education and networking opportunities. School nurses play a vital role in the educational setting by helping to protect the health and safety of staff and students and promoting positive attitudes towards health and wellness.…..we'll be right back   Break:   ESOG– Dayco   Story 4:  Chef   As high schoolers approach graduation, many life skills gain urgency, including food preparation and nutrition, which are often overlooked. Chef Mark Maier aims to change that by teaching real-world experience and skills to students in the Kell Culinary Department. Maier, a seasoned industry professional, teaches culinary math, budgeting, portion management, and timing, among other skills, to help his students learn how to get and keep a job. Kell Catering, which offers food and hospitality to groups outside of the high school, also provides hands-on experience. A fully-equipped professional kitchen is planned for the future to offer students a more professional experience.   STORY 5: KSU   Scarpinato is a national Association of Public & Land-Grant Universities Council on Research Leadership Fellow, appointed in their 2018-2020 cohort. She is Lean Six Sigma Green Belt certified and working toward a Black Belt. She is the founder of a Women in Research networking group of nationwide women associate and vice presidents for research that discusses best practices in their fields.   She earned a Ph.D. in Biology and Molecular Genetics, a Master of Science in Biology and Genetics, and a Bachelor of Science in Biology, Botany and Zoology from Georg-August University in Goettingen, Germany. (getting-gen…g like gun)     STORY 6: Tax hike   The Cobb County Tax Assessor has mailed out assessment notices, with roughly 75% of Cobb homeowners seeing their valuations increase. For some residents, this will mean an increase in their property taxes. Homeowners have 45 days to appeal if they believe their home has been overvalued. The growth means an increase in tax revenue for Cobb County, its cities, school districts and community improvement districts. The number of home sales in Cobb was down by 21.6% in April of this year compared to last April, according to the Georgia Multiple Listing Service. However, the April median sales price grew by 3.2% year-over-year.   Story 7: Sentenced   The Georgia state Board of Education has approved new English/language arts (ELA) standards for public schools, completing the process of abandoning Common Core. The new standards were created with input from teachers, parents, students, business leaders, and community members. The ELA standards prioritize learners and aim to give students a strong foundation for both literacy and success. The standards place a strong emphasis on fundamentals in the early grades, reflecting the importance of early literacy to all future learning. Georgia's legislature passed two literacy bills aimed in part at the "science of reading" during this year's session.…..back in a momentTop of Form   Break  Drake – Elon - JRM Teaser   Top of Form   Story 8: Fields Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields received his degree in consumer and family financial services from Ohio State University over the weekend. Fields played two seasons at Ohio State after starting his college career at Georgia. He continued his studies through the university's athletic department's degree completion program after being selected by the Bears in the 2021 NFL draft. Fields led Ohio State to two College Football Playoff appearances and was a Heisman Trophy finalist. In his two seasons with the Bears, Fields has a 5-20 record as the starter and has thrown for 4,112 yards, 24 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions. Story 9: Life The Life University men's rugby sevens team won their second consecutive national championship at the USA Rugby national championships in Houston. As the No. 2 seed in the bracket, the Running Eagles defeated Penn State 17-0 in the quarterfinals and Davenport 21-0 in the semifinals.

How does emigration affect those left behind? The fall of Yugoslavia in the 1990s led citizens to look for a better, more stable life elsewhere. For the older generations, however, this wasn't an option. In this powerful and moving work, Ivana Bajic-Hajdukovic reveals the impact that waves of emigration from Serbia had on family relationships and, in particular, on elderly mothers who stayed. With nowhere to go, and any savings given to their children to help establish new lives, these seniors faced the crumbling country, waves of refugees from Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, NATO bombing, the failing economy, and the trial and ouster of Slobodan Milosevic. Can You Run Away from Sorrow?: Mothers Left Behind in 1990s Belgrade (Indiana UP, 2020) poignantly depicts the intimacy of family relationships sustained through these turbulent times in Serbia and through the next generation's search for a new life. Bajic-Hajdukovic explores transformations in family intimacy during everyday life practices-in people's homes, in their food and cooking practices, in their childcare, and even in remittances and the exchange of gifts. "Can You Run Away from Sorrow?" illustrates not only the tremendous sacrifice of parents, but also their profound sense of loss-of their families, their country, their stability and dignity, and most importantly, of their own identity and hope for what they thought their future would be.

How does emigration affect those left behind? The fall of Yugoslavia in the 1990s led citizens to look for a better, more stable life elsewhere. For the older generations, however, this wasn't an option. In this powerful and moving work, Ivana Bajic-Hajdukovic reveals the impact that waves of emigration from Serbia had on family relationships and, in particular, on elderly mothers who stayed. With nowhere to go, and any savings given to their children to help establish new lives, these seniors faced the crumbling country, waves of refugees from Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, NATO bombing, the failing economy, and the trial and ouster of Slobodan Milosevic. Can You Run Away from Sorrow?: Mothers Left Behind in 1990s Belgrade (Indiana UP, 2020) poignantly depicts the intimacy of family relationships sustained through these turbulent times in Serbia and through the next generation's search for a new life.

When thinking of tiny fruit flies, one doesn’t usually have their brainpower in mind. But even these small insects, like all animals, can learn behaviours in response to different stimuli. Prof André Fiala studies the learning behaviour of fruit flies, aiming to dig deeper into the computational principles underlying the encoding of learned information. Find more from Prof Fiala at his University of Goettingen website, and follow him on Twitter. Read the original paper this episode is based on : https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2020.03.010

In her book Iran Reframed: Anxieties of Power in the Islamic Republic (Stanford University Press, 2019), Narges Bajoghli takes an inside look at what it means to be pro-regime in Iran, and the debates around the future of the Islamic Republic. Now entering its fifth decade in power, the Iranian regime faces the paradox of any successful revolution: how to transmit the commitments of its political project to the next generation. New media ventures supported by the Islamic Republic attempt to win the hearts and minds of younger Iranians. Yet, this new generation—whether dissidents or fundamentalists—are increasingly skeptical of these efforts. Iran Reframed offers unprecedented access to those who wield power in Iran as they debate and define the future of the Republic. Over ten years, Narges Bajoghli met with men in Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, Ansar Hezbollah, and Basij paramilitary organizations to investigate how the media producers developed strategies to court Iranian youth. Readers come to know these men—what the regime means to them and their anxieties about the future of their revolutionary project. Contestation about how to define the regime underlies all their efforts to communicate with the public. This book offers a multilayered story about what it means to be pro-regime in the Islamic Republic, challenging everything we think we know about Iran and revolution. Narges Bajoghli is assistant professor of Middle East Studies at the School of Advanced International Studies, Johns Hopkins University. She is the director of the documentary The Skin That Burns. Her academic research focuses on the intersections of media, power, and military in Iran. She is a frequent commentator on NPR, PBS, and the BBC. She received her PhD from New York University.

An Anthropology of Nothing in Particular (Zero Books, 2018) is an “exploration of what goes missing when one looks for meaning” (p. 1).

A conversation on Brexit between scholars of the Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes from the Georg-August-University Goettingen in Germany and DPhil students from the University of Oxford. The discussed questions are: Some argue that Brexit was a vote on migration and that the German refugee policy fuelled the Brexit movement. How was the decision by Angela Merkel to let refugees into Germany perceived by the UK younger generation and students? Arguably, those who voted for populist parties and policies are underrepresented in this room. Are we alienated from voters that support populist parties in Germany or voted for Brexit? Oxford is a world leading international University. Why is it that Brexit was mainly caused by Oxford graduates? Oxford is increasing its collaboration with the Berlin Universities and seems to be opposed and concerned about Brexit. What can be done to increase the exchange between German and UK Universities despite of Brexit?

But 34-year old Israel Keyes killed himself soon after confessing to his killing, choosing to take the cowards way out instead of facing prosecution. For nearly a decade, Keyes lived life like a seemingly ordinary man. After finishing his service in the U.S. Military, he set up his Construction business. After settling into Alaska, he used his job as a contractor to travel to different states to do jobs, but more importantly to commit his crimes. On March 16, 2012, he was arrested in Texas when he used a debit card owned by a young girl named Samantha Koenig. His rental car license plate was caught by an ATM camera which led authorities directly to him. See Eighteen-year-old, Samantha was an Alaskan native who worked as a barista at a coffee stand in Anchorage. In February of 2012 someone had kidnapped her from her workplace. #2 Fritz Haarmann Fritz Haarmann’s guillotined head had been preserved in formaldehyde for medical and research purposes for 89 years before it was finally cremated by the University of Goettingen's medical department in 2015. For most people, the name might not ring a bell but Haarmann was a true pioneer – in serial killing. Dubbed as “The Butcher of Hanover” and “The Vampire of Hanover,” he was born in hanover, germany in 1879, the youngest of 6 children. At a young age he would manifest his deviancy by tying up his sisters, dressing up in their clothes and even going around at night tapping on neighbor’s windows to make it seem like something supernatural was happening. By the time he was 17, he was arrested for molesting several children. As a result, he was thrown in an asylum where he was to spend the rest of his life. However, he managed to escape to Switzerland and stayed there for 16 months before making his way back to Hanover. When he got back, he enlisted in the army but was discharged due to a medical condition. Afterwards, he got married and tried his hand at leading a normal life. But In the end, he left his wife and child after accusing her of having an affair. From then on, Haarmann pursued a life of petty crime and eventually horrendous acts of violence.

In today’s episode, I’m talking with Dr Roslyn Fuller and Professor Nadia Urbinati.  Dr Roslyn Fuller (dipl. jur./erstes Staatsexamen, Goettingen; PhD, Trinity College Dublin) is a Canadian-Irish academic and columnist, specializing in public international law, and the impact of technological innovation on democracy. Her latest book Beasts and Gods: How Democracy Changed Its Meaning and Lost Its Purpose explores the flaws of representative democracy and how they could be addressed through the application of ancient Athenian principles of demokratia (people power). Her work has appeared, among others, in OpenDemocracy, The Nation, The Toronto Star, Salon and The Irish Times, as well as in many scholarly journals. She is currently a Research Associate at Waterford Institute of Technology and founding member of the Solonian Democracy Institute. Like Professor Cartledge in episode 1 Roslyn is interested in what we can learn from the democracy of ancient Athens and like him, she sees technology as providing a way to scale up direct democracy.   Nadia Urbinati is a Professor of Political Theory and Hellenic Studies at Columbia University. She is a political theorist who specializes in modern and contemporary political thought and the democratic and anti-democratic traditions.  Nadia has written extensively on democracy including two books: Representative Democracy: Principles and Genealogy, Democracy Disfigured , and Mill on Democracy: From the Athenian Polis to Representative Government.    Nadia takes us through a potted history of representative democracy and explains four key elements of representative democracy and why they are crucial for an operating representative democracy: Sovereignty of people expressed in electoral appointment of their representatives Free mandate for representatives Electoral mechanisms to ensure responsiveness by representatives Universal franchise.  Nadia identifies the dual authorities of citizens - our vote and our judgement - which while distinct and different are equally important.   If you would like to hear more from Roslyn and Nadia visit my YouTube channel where I have included videos of other presentations and interviews by these guests.   In next week’s episode, we will hear about a couple of the many different approaches to evaluating representative democracy: the Varieties of Democracy project, the Democracy Barometer, the Unified Democracy Scores and the work done by the Research Centre on Democracies and Democratizations in Rome. I hope you’ll join me then.

Mit 16 raucht Bärbel nach der Beerdigung ihrer Großmutter den ersten Joint - will den Trauerschmerz betäuben. Mit 19 Jahren, nach vier weiteren Verlusten, schiebt ihr ein Cousin das erste Heroinpäckchen zu - zum Kopf-frei-Pusten. Hat gewirkt. Bärbel bricht die Ausbildung ab und landet im Drogensumpf. Aber so wollte sie nie leben. Sie schämt sich für ihre Sucht. Immer wieder versucht sie mit verschiedensten Therapien davon loszukommen, doch erst als sie schwanger ist, schafft sie es, ohne Drogen zu leben. Fünf Jahre lebt sie mit ihrem Sohn zusammen, dann wird sie depressiv, gibt ihn vorsorglich in die Hände des Jugendamtes und rutscht wieder ab. Heute ist Bärbel 36 und startet gerade wieder einen Versuch im Substitutionsprogramm mit Medikamenten statt Drogen. In welcher Anlaufstelle in Göttingen sie immer wieder aufgefangen wird, egal, ob sie Drogen nimmt, oder clean ist, sie erzählt es in dieser Sendung.
