In this episode of Plugged Into Public Health, Lauren sits down with Professor Baker from the University of Iowa College of Law to unpack the complicated legal framework surrounding pregnancy, childbirth, parental leave, and workplace protections in the United States. Together, they explore how pregnancy became treated primarily through discrimination law, why the U.S. differs so dramatically from many other industrialized countries on paid parental leave, and how policies like the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) came to exist in their current form. The conversation digs into the tension between gender equality and biological reality in public policy, including whether treating everyone “the same” under the law always leads to equitable outcomes in practice. Professor Baker also explains how unpaid leave disproportionately impacts lower-income workers and single mothers, why many employers structure leave policies the way they do, and what realistic policy reforms could look like in the future. Throughout the episode, listeners are reminded that public health is shaped not only by healthcare systems, but also by labor policy, economics, law, and the broader social supports available to families. This episode offers a thoughtful and accessible look at an issue that affects millions of Americans, while also showing just how unusual the United States is compared to much of the rest of the world when it comes to supporting pregnancy and early parenthood.

This week on Plugged In to Public Health, Raj and Faith sit down with renowned biostatistician and public health researcher Bhramar Mukherjee following her Hansen Distinguished Lecture at the University of Iowa College of Public Health. Dr. Mukherjee shares her journey from studying mathematics in India to becoming a leading voice in biostatistics, epidemiology, and public communication during the COVID-19 pandemic. Together, they explore the “four quadrants” that shaped her lecture and career: ethics, community engagement, communication, and capacity building. The conversation dives into some of the biggest questions facing public health today: -What responsibilities do statisticians have beyond the numbers? -How do we communicate uncertainty to the public? -What happens when politics shapes data collection? -How should researchers think about AI, privacy, and the future of education? -And why might friction, tension, and even mistakes be essential for growth and creativity? Dr. Mukherjee also reflects on the courage required to communicate science publicly during moments of crisis, the importance of community trust in research, and why foundational skills matter more than chasing every new technological trend. This episode is thoughtful, timely, and deeply relevant for anyone interested in science, leadership, ethics, education, or the future of public health.

This week on Plugged In to Public Health, Lauren sits down with Dr. Erin Wissler Gerdes, recent PhD graduate from the University of Iowa College of Public Health, to discuss the mental and emotional realities of early parenthood, including anxiety, burnout, loneliness, and “parental rage.” Drawing from her dissertation research and personal experience as a parent of three young children, Erin explains what parental rage actually is, why it remains under-discussed, and what her research revealed about how common these experiences are among both moms and dads. The conversation explores the role of social support, mental load, overstimulation, and the structural pressures shaping modern parenting. The episode also examines broader public health and policy questions surrounding childcare, parental leave, social isolation, and what meaningful support for families could look like moving forward. In recognition of Mother's Day weekend, this episode highlights the importance of supporting parents not just individually, but through stronger systems and communities. In this episode, we discuss: -What “parental rage” means and how it differs from everyday frustration -Why anxiety and burnout are strongly linked to rage experiences -Differences and similarities between moms' and dads' experiences -The mental load of parenting and modern parenting expectations -Social isolation and the loss of “the village” -Structural barriers facing families, including childcare and parental leave -Why support systems matter for parental mental health *This episode contains discussion of parental mental health, anxiety, burnout, and emotional distress related to parenting.* A transcript of this episode will be available here soon.

In this episode, we explore why tick-borne diseases are becoming an emerging concern across Iowa and the Midwest, particularly for farmers and other outdoor workers. Dr. Kathryn Dalton from the University of Iowa College of Public Health joins the conversation to break down what's driving these changes and why they matter. As tick populations grow and their active season expands, farmers are facing increased exposure risks simply due to the nature of their work. While there is still much to learn about tick exposure in Midwest farming populations, this episode lays the groundwork for understanding the scope of the issue and why awareness is more important than ever. In the next episode, we'll take a closer look at prevention strategies, symptoms to watch for, and what to do if you suspect a tick-borne illness. Episode ResourcesCheck Your Body for Ticks, Graphic, GPCAHTick-Borne Disease in Iowa, Iowa State UniversityKathryn Dalton's Tick Study, WebpageTick Study Post Card

How we talk to older adults matters more than we think. In this episode of Plugged into Public Health, host Lauren Lavin talks with Dr. Claire Shaw, assistant professor at the University of Iowa College of Nursing, about her research on dementia care and the communication patterns that shape it. Dr. Shaw explains what elderspeak is, why it often appears in caregiving settings, and how even well-meaning speech can unintentionally trigger stress, confusion, or care refusal in people living with dementia. Drawing from her work in nursing homes and hospitals, Dr. Shaw breaks down how communication can influence patient behavior, why certain caregiving habits persist, and how small changes in tone, wording, and approach can lead to better outcomes. She also shares practical tools for both healthcare professionals and families who want to communicate more respectfully and effectively with loved ones experiencing cognitive decline. This conversation offers a thoughtful look at the intersection of language, dignity, and care, and it highlights how awareness and intention can meaningfully improve the experiences of older adults and their caregivers.

Pregnancy pain is common, often dismissed, and rarely easy to manage. At the same time, recent headlines have stirred anxiety by suggesting that acetaminophen (Tylenol) use in pregnancy may be linked to autism. These claims spread quickly online, leaving many parents-to-be with more questions than answers. In this episode of Plugged into Public Health, host Lauren Lavin talks with Dr. Julie Vignato, assistant professor at the University of Iowa College of Nursing and a leading researcher on pain in pregnancy. Dr. Vignato brings both professional expertise and personal insight as a mother, helping us unpack what the science actually says, where misinformation creeps in, and how healthcare providers and public health communicators can share clearer messages. Topics discussed include: -Why pregnancy pain is too often under-treated and misunderstood -What the evidence shows about acetaminophen and NSAIDs during pregnancy -How a large Swedish “sibling study” helps rule out Tylenol as a cause of autism -The role of maternal guilt, stigma, and communication in shaping these conversations -Practical advice for both pregnant people and healthcare providers navigating pain management -How to identify trustworthy evidence and avoid misinformation online Resources mentioned in this episode: -Swedish sibling study on acetaminophen and autism: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2817406 -Cochrane Library – Plain language reviews: https://www.cochrane.org/evidence -Dr. Vignato's study on OTC pain relievers during pregnancy: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2817406 A transcript of this episode will be available here soon.

Gul is a Fulbright PhD scholar at the University of Iowa College of Public Health, studying health workforce policy, particularly in long-term care settings. • Between March 2020 and September 2021, 19 states reduced CNA training and licensing requirements in an effort to address staffing shortages in nursing homes. • Gulrukh's study found that these policy changes did not improve CNA staffing levels in nursing homes, even though some scholars had argued that strict training and licensing requirements were a barrier to entering the field. • Gulrukh suggests that improving wages, benefits, and working conditions for CNAs may be more effective than reducing training and licensing requirements for addressing staffing shortages in nursing homes. • Her future research will explore the impact of other workforce policies, such as incentive-based programs and wage increases, on staffing and quality of care in nursing homes.

When it comes to the protection of a free and fair press, there is one landmark Supreme Court case that sits at the top, and it is New York Times Company v Sullivan (1964). This case redefined libel in the United States and is cited in almost every defamation suit since, but its origin is in the Civil Rights Movement, when newspapers were sued to the brink of collapse for covering protests in the south. Taking us through libel, defamation, and "actual malice" are Ang Reidell, Director of Outreach and Curriculum at the Annenberg Public Policy Center, and Samantha Barbas, professor at the Iowa College of Law and author of Actual Malice: Civil Rights and Freedom of the Press in New York Times v. Sullivan.Click here to watch a fantastic documentary from Annenberg on the case.Quick note to teachers! Our guests are collaborating today!
