Mentoring. On a macro level, mentorship should be helpful in any profession, but when it comes to the legal arena, it is more critical than most. Attorneys stress being able to learn from those who came before, helping younger attorneys shape their lives and careers in a demanding environment. Sue Light is a partner and co-head of the broker/dealer regulatory practice at Katten. An attorney with more than three decades of legal acumen, Light joined Katten five years ago after close to 30 years at the New York Stock Exchange Group, where she was held several senior leadership roles. It is also where she started mentoring younger attorneys decades ago. Light has continued those mentorship efforts at Katten, where she recently won the firm's 2024 John P. Sieger Excellence in Mentoring Award, which is given annually by the firm to one attorney and one business professional.  In an interview with Legal Speak's Patrick Smith, Light discusses the award itself, the motivations she has for spending her time and resources assisting others and why she feels mentorship is important.

Colloque de rentrée 2024 - Genre et Sciences : Défenses immunitaires et dimorphisme sexuelSession 3 : Science biologique et génomique, juridiqueYasmine BelkaidDirectrice générale de l'Institut PasteurSéance animée par Vinciane Pirenne-DelforgeRésuméThe immune system serves as a potent rheostat of host physiology, a fundamental function that requires specialized regulation across tissues, age and biological sex. Such tailored control also contributes to differences in disease manifestations. Notably, sex bias in host immunity is believed to account for differences in the incidence, tropism and severity of diseases between males and females. Clinical and experimental work revealed that females tend to develop stronger responses to infections and vaccines, and have a greater incidence of autoimmune disorders than males. As an illustration of this phenomenon, sex differences in infection outcomes were recently highlighted in the context of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, with enhanced risk for severe infection and lethality in men compared to women. Differential susceptibility to infections and inflammatory disorders has been, at least in part, attributed to heightened innate and adaptive immune potency in females than males (3, 4). While several mechanisms have been proposed to account for this phenomenon, our understanding of the key players involved in shaping sex-specific immunity remains surprisingly sparse. Sexual dimorphism can result from sex chromosome and/or hormonal control of host physiology. Notably, both androgens and estrogens have been shown to have the capacity to directly impact the function of various immune cells. Sexual bias in host immunity is of particular importance in barrier tissues that are primary targets of infections, injury and chronic inflammatory disorders. Indeed, sexual dimorphism has long been recognized in the context of various barrier tissue inflammatory disorders such as asthma, atopic dermatitis and Sjögren's syndrome. Collectively, biological sex has broadly been associated with differences in the intensity and tropism of numerous disorders. How constitutive wiring of barrier tissues in males versus females predicts disease outcomes remains largely unclear, but emerging evidence supports the idea that each tissue may be differentially impacted by biological sex. For instance, comparison of 44 human tissues revealed tissue-specific differences in the number of genes differentially regulated between men and women, with the skin notably displaying the highest number of sex−biased genes. We uncovered a dominant role for type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) in shaping sexual immune dimorphism within the skin. Mechanistically, negative regulation of ILC2 by androgens leads to a reduction in dendritic cell (DC) accumulation and activation in males, and reduced tissue immunity. This recent work reveals an androgen-ILC2-DC axis in controlling sexual immune dimorphism.Yasmine BelkaidPr Yasmine Belkaid is the President of the Institut Pasteur (Paris) and the head of the Metaorganism Immunity laboratory at the Institut Pasteur. She obtained her Master in Biochemistry at the University of Science and Technology Houari Boumediene in Algiers, Algeria and her PhD from the Institut Pasteur in France. Following a postdoctoral fellowship at the National Institute of health (Bethesda) on immune regulation during infection, she started her research program at the Children's Hospital Research Foundation in Cincinnati. In 2005, she joined the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) where she served as department chair of the Laboratory of Host Immunity and Microbiome, Director of the trans-NIH Center for Human immunology and founder and Director of the NIAID Microbiome program prior to joining the Institut Pasteur in 2024. Her work explores fundamental mechanisms that regulate tissue homeostasis and host immune responses and uncovered key roles for the microbiota and dietary factors in the control of immunity and protection to pathogens. Her work also explores the role of the immune system in organismal remodeling and the impact of infections on maternal child DYAD. Dr Belkaid is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Medicine and recipient of numerous awards including the Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences, the Emil von Behring Prize, the Sanofi-Institut Pasteur Award, the Robert Koch Award and the AAI Excellence in Mentoring Award.

Help inspire the future of With & For! Click here to take our short survey! Four respondents will get a special box of goodies from the Thrive Center!“People who are patient are not less assertive, they are not passive, and if anything they actually achieve their goals more successfully. Anything worthwhile, you'll have to wait and you'll have to suffer. And so we need patience to be able to suffer well. Patience is not an eradication of emotions. It is the ability to feel those emotions, but to stay level headed to regulate through them. As a virtue, patience, I see as doing that for something beyond the self. So patience is really staying engaged continuing forward and pursuing the good.” (Sarah Schnitker)We live in a high-speed, high-efficiency, get-it-done-yesterday society. Why would we talk about patience? But the old adage, “Patience is a virtue” is true. A core ingredient to our spiritual health in our frenetic modern world is the ability to live fully in the moment, exercise control and stability through arduous or challenging (and even traumatic) circumstances—doing so with poise and style.Research psychologist Dr. Sarah Schnitker of Baylor University has pioneered the scientific study of patience among the virtues, exploring the physical, emotional, spiritual, and philosophical dimensions of this timeless and timely virtue. She defines patience as the ability to remain calm in the face of adversity and suffering—being able to wait well and not become inordinately overwhelmed by anxiety or sorrow.Patience makes us ask not just “What's worth waiting for?”, but “What's worth suffering for?” Our English word for suffering comes from the Latin word for “enduring suffering.” And Sarah Schnitker brings theologically rich dimensions to her psychological study of patience.In this conversation with Sarah Schnitker, we discuss:The definition of patience as a virtueThe essential role patience can play in our pursuit of meaning and purposeThe connections between waiting and suffering—and the theological and spiritual context for patienceHow patience is related to goal-setting and complementary to courageAnd Sarah offers guidance for how to cultivate patience in our own lives, using a research-backed strategy to identify, imagine, and think.Show NotesLearn about Sarah Schnitker's research on virtue and character development on Science of Virtues Lab.Pam King introduces Sarah Schnitker (Baylor University)Biblical concept of patience as “long-suffering”David Bailey Harned—eradicating problems and losing faith in patience“Anything worthwhile you'll have to wait and you'll have to suffer.”“I think many people don't have that clarity about what it is in their life that they are willing to suffer for. So I think that search for meaning and purpose involves that.”Patience as a “beyond the self” virtueDefinition: “the ability to remain calm in the face of adversity, suffering, and waiting”“It's not that you don't get emotions. It is the ability to feel those emotions, but to stay level headed to regulate through them.”Patience and goal-settingPatience and self-control as different but working together“Patience is really part of that facilitation of adaptive goal pursuit, which is really cool to find and also to show that meaning really matters too. That meaning pushes you to be more patient.”Telos: “the intersection of our goals, our roles, and our souls”Patience and courageHabits to help us reappraise meaning and purpose in the world“This moment is not forever…”Kendall Bronk on patience in emerging adultsPatience as “the ability to stay calm, but actively engaged in the face of frustration or suffering.”Depression, mental healthMark Labberton's story of allowing the rituals and habits of Christian sacraments and liturgy to calm and regulate and provide meaningAutopilot as the virtueGratitude and patience as a communal practice—what is communal patience?What is your gratitude? What is your growth?Virtues help us as a fuel system and guidance systemPatience in Sarah Schnitker's personal lifeCyclic Vomiting SyndromeVirtue Ethics and Greek philosopher AristotleThe “Golden Mean” of virtuesImpatience is too little of the virtue of patience (the vice of deficiency)Passivity (or the spiritual vice of “acedia”) is too much of patience (the vice of excess)Weaponizing patience is not a virtue.How patience pairs well with courageWhen you have both patience and courage, that's when you're pursuing your goals well and loving boldly, seeking justicePatience and loving your enemyPractical Steps: How can we become patient?Identify, Imagine, and SyncIdentify your emotions, notice what you're feeling, developing a larger emotional lexiconImagine, think about things differently, think differently, reappraisal to bring down the emotion, perspective takingSync, moving forward with a goal based plan connected to meaning and purpose“Patience is a whole-life game.”Patience and the Muslim practice of RamadanMeasuring the impact of fasting during Ramadan on the cultivation of patienceUnderstanding the sacred practice of spiritual fasting and its connection to virtue developmentPatience increased significantly during RamadanPracticing patience as a spiritual communityHow practices connect us to our bodies, purposes, and beliefsSarah Schnitker on “What is thriving?”Loving God and loving others for the sake of justice in societyPam King's key takeaways:Waiting is not easy, but in our fast-paced world, we need to slow down and cultivate the timeless virtue of patience.Patience helps us both to regulate and reappraise our emotional life, helping us deal with really difficult situations.We can learn and cultivate patience in a variety of contexts in the family, school, work, and its uptake is enhanced when supported by a spiritual community.When paired with courage, patience has the potential to make us truly resilient.Patience is transformative for our thriving and deeply connected to our pursuit of meaning and purpose.About Sarah SchnitkerSarah Schnitker is Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Baylor University.

People give and receive communication differently so we can't assume that when we say something to somebody else that it will come across as we intended. The coach needs to have knowledge and understanding about the background of each person.  The line between coaching, mentoring, consulting, and therapy are very fine lines. Coaches need to be aware of their own ego needs and offer other modalities only when the client will benefit. To know the client's needs, the coach should find out what is their pain, what is the cost of their pain, and what would be the benefit for them if they changed. They must decide whether they should invest in making that difference.     “It can be so easy to go on autopilot.

One of the good things that came out of the past few years has been a greater reckoning with and understanding about racism. The very systems embedded in American society treat people unequally based on their race. This affects how people of different races see themselves and interact with each other, which can impact a person's mental health.    While these ideas are becoming more widely understood, today's guest, Dr. Janet Helms, has been studying race and mental health for over 40 years. She believes, as we do, that all people should be treated equitably. But unfortunately, that is often not the case.  Therefore, Dr. Helms has dedicated her career to understanding how and why there is inequity. In her work, she has created more culturally responsive care and research to encourage mental health providers to attend to racial and cultural issues in their practices and institutions to help them improve mental health care.   Janet E. Helms, PhD, is the Augustus Long Professor Emeritus in the Department of Counseling, Developmental, and Educational Psychology and Director of the Institute for the Study and Promotion of Race and Culture at Boston College. Dr. Helms's work has been acknowledged with many awards including the national Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman Award for mentoring students, an engraved brick in Iowa State University's Plaza of Heroines, and the “Distinguished Career Contributions to Research” Award from the Society for the Psychological Study of Ethnic Minority Issues, the American Psychological Association's Awards for “Distinguished Contributions to Education and Training in Psychology” (2006) and the Award for “Distinguished Contributions to Research in Public Policy” (2008).  Recently, Dr. Helms was the recipient of the 2017-2018 Lifetime Achievement in Mentoring Award from the Society of Counseling Psychology, the 2018 Lifetime Achievement Award from APA's Society for the Psychological Study of Culture Ethnicity, and Race, and the APA/APF Gold Medal Award for Life Achievement in the Public Interest.    If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to follow or subscribe wherever you are listening, and share the show with your colleagues and friends.

Whether it is enduring the process of untangling yarn, cancelling all your credit cards after losing your wallet, or waiting for months to hear back from a college admissions' office, patience makes the experience more meaningful and less unbearable. As a quality that is considered morally good and desirable in a person, no wonder patience is a virtue as it offers a much-needed chance to maintain or regain our strength while seeing where we are and what we are made of. On this episode,  Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Baylor University and  Editor for Psychology of Religion and Spirituality, Dr. Sarah Schnitker, discusses her research in the area of patience, why it is a virtue, and reasons why it's a tough but worthy skill to master. Strong Executive Function skills help set goals, follow through and accomplish them over time, and learning to become more patient could be an excellent investment in such skill building.About Dr. Sarah SchnitkerDr. Sarah Schnitker is an Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Baylor University.

Can we transform our society through unruly resistance, defiant love, and radical care? Two highly respected and widely-published scholars, Diane C. Fujino and Robyn Magalit Rodriguez, think it's possible. In their new book, Contemporary Asian American Activism: Building Movements for Liberation, they brought together stories of lived experiences, lessons, and triumphs from grassroots Asian American organizers and scholar-activists fighting for transformative justice. In the struggles for prison abolition, global anti-imperialism, immigrant rights, affordable housing, environmental justice, fair labor, and more, twenty-first-century Asian American activists are speaking out and standing up to systems of oppression. Fujino and Rodriguez came together to celebrate victories, assess failures, reflect on the trials of activist life, examine movement-building in the long term, and inspire continued mobilization for the years to come. Collectively, the stories shape a vision of a more just future that's forged when many different races — and multiple generations — come together in solidarity. Diane C. Fujino is professor of Asian American Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Her research examines Japanese and Asian American activist history within an Asian American Radical Tradition and shaped by Black Power and Third World decolonization. Fujino is co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Asian American Studies, and sits on the editorial boards of Kalfou: A Journal of Comparative and Relational Ethnic Studies and the Journal of Civil and Human Rights. She serves as Faculty Equity Advisory and Associate Dean in the Division of Social Sciences. She is featured in AOKI: A Documentary Film and has spoken on the history of Asian American, Afro-Asian, and Third World liberation struggles on NPR, Democracy Now!, CBSN, NBC Asian America, and many other networks. She is the author of multiple books, and her writing has been published in the Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and on Al Jazeera Plus, Discover Nikkei, and many more. Robyn Magalit Rodriguez is professor of Asian American Studies at the University of California, Davis. She was the first Pinay (Filipina born in the United States) to serve as chair in the Asian American Studies department's 50-year history.

Host, Stephen Wood and Dr Anne Pringle, a mycologist and botanist, tell the story of the Amanita Phalloides mushroom. This is not a mushroom native to the United States, but it has found its way there in an unsuspecting way, cork trees. These cork trees were imported for use by California wineries but they had a stowaway, the Amanita Phalloides or death cap mushroom. Death caps are toxic mushrooms that kill both humans as well as domestic pets when consumed. These toxic mushrooms resemble several edible species (most notably Caesar's mushroom and the straw mushroom) commonly consumed by humans, increasing the risk of accidental poisoning. Amatoxins, the class of toxins found in these mushrooms, are thermostable: and thus they resist changes due to heat, which means their toxic effects are not reduced by cooking. Signs and symptoms start with an initially self-limiting gastrointestinal illness, that later can result in liver and renal failure and death. The conversation led to a discussion on how to safely collect mushrooms as well as resources to help medical providers and gatherers alike to identify mushrooms. Just as important was a discussion on how we as healthcare providers and environmentalists can prevent invasive species infestations through local action. Mushroom Observer:  https://mushroomobserver.org/ iNat:  https://www.inaturalist.org/ Mushroom Expert:  https://www.mushroomexpert.com/ Guest Bio: Anne Pringle was born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and spent her childhood travelling through Southeast Asia and West Africa.

What is the place of patience in a life worth living? Evidence from psychology suggests that it plays an important role in managing life's stresses, contributing to a greater sense of well-being, and is even negatively correlated with depression and suicide risk. Psychologist Sarah Schnitker (Baylor University) explains her research on patience, how psychological methodology integrates with theology and philosophy to define and measure the virtue, and offers an evidence-based intervention for becoming more patient. She also discusses the connection between patience and gratitude, the role of patience in a meaningful life, and how acedia, a forgotten vice to modern people, lurks in the shadows when we are deficient in patience.Part 5 of a 6-episode series on Patience, hosted by Ryan McAnnally-Linz.Show NotesThis episode was made possible in part by a grant from Blueprint 1543.Why study patience from a psychological perspective?Patience as notably absentCan we suffer well?

Patience allows you to pursue the goal in an emotionally stable wayUnity of the virtues: “We need a constellation of virtues for a person to really flourish in this world."Golden Mean, excess, deficiency, too much and too littleAcedia and Me, Kathleen Norris on a forgotten viceAcedia in relationship: “Even in the pandemic… monotony…"The overlapping symptoms of acedia and depressionPatience is negatively correlated with depression symptoms; people with more life-hardships patience is a strength that helps people cope with some types of depressionPatience and gratitude buffer against ultimate struggles with existential meaning and suicide riskHow do you become more patient? “It requires patience to become more patient."Three Step Process for becoming more patient: Identify, Imagine, and SyncStep 1: Identify your emotional state. Patience is not suppression; it begins with attention and noticing—identifying what's going on.Step 2: Cognitive reappraisal: one of the most effective ways to regulate our emotions. Think about your own emotions from another person's perspective, or in light of the bigger picture. Take each particular situation and reappraise it. Find benefits. Turn a curse into a blessing. Find opportunities.Step 3: Sync with your purpose. Create a narrative that supports the meaning of suffering. For many this is religious faithReappraising cognitive reappraisal: How convinced do you have to be? You'd have to find something with “epistemic teeth”—is this something you can rationally endorse and know, and can you feel it? Combining patience and gratitude practices, allowing for multiple emotions at once, and reimagining and reappraising one's life within your understanding of purpose and meaning.Provide psychological distance to attenuate emotional response.The existential relevance of faith for patience; theological background of patiencePatience and a life worth livingLove, the unity of the virtues, and "the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation" (2 Peter 3)About Sarah SchnitkerSarah Schnitker is Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Baylor University.

Shooting Spores: Understand the Physics of the Most Amazing Apparatuses on Earth Presented by Anne Pringle, PhD Fungi use spores to move between habitats and spore dispersal is critical to their success. Fungi use an astonishing array of apparatuses and strategies to move their progeny: sacs filled with fluid that explode like water balloons, collapsing drops of liquid, and winds created by the cooperative release of hundreds of thousands of their spores. Fungi may even sense impending thunderstorms and use their updrafts to disperse longer distances. I’ll talk about all of this amazing biology and try and convince you that fungi actively manipulate the fates of their spores, a contrast to the perception of spore release as entirely passive. Anne Pringle was born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and spent her childhood traveling through Southeast Asia and West Africa. After being dragged along on one-too-many birding expeditions, she abandoned the birds for fungi. She was an undergraduate at the University of Chicago, and then completed a Ph.D. in Botany and Genetics at Duke University. After completing a Miller Institute for Basic Research in Science Fellowship at the University of California, Berkeley, she joined the faculty at Harvard University. She next moved to the University of Wisconsin, Madison, where she is now Vilas Distinguished Achievement Professor in the Departments of Botany and Bacteriology. She has been awarded the Alexopoulos Prize for a Distinguished Early Career Mycologist (2010), the Mendelsohn Excellence in Mentoring Award from the Harvard University Graduate Student Council (2011), the Fannie Cox Prize for Excellence in Science Teaching from Harvard University (2013), and a Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study Fellowship (2011-2012).

I would be remiss if I didn't mention that in her spare time, Jackie is an amazing writer and you can follow her writing at https://jackiethornhill.medium.com/. Impressive bio's aside, this conversation was really inspiring. More than anything it is about family. It's about being your authentic self, even when that might be as contrarian as humanly possible. It's about mistakes, forgiveness, understanding, compassion, empathy, and love. Bridget's and Jackie's journey together during Jackie's transition has had its ups and downs, but the love for each other, the understanding, and acceptance is a beautiful example of how we can and should show up for each other. It's an example of what real acceptance looks like and it is also a shining example of what true transition means. And I mean transition for both of them. Jackie's transition may be the more prominent one here, but make no mistake about it, Bridget's transformation during this journey has been profound. Their shared experience was so powerful and transforming that they decided to launch a new school to help families and the community. You can visit transgenderschool.org for more information. The website is full of resources, courses, and community, and it's just getting started.

If you don't believe in yourself, why should someone else? That is the advice Dr. Fariha Shafi learned at a young age; and she shares it with us today. She explains the true power of mentorship; how those that stand behind us are the ones who inspire us to be the very best we can. That mentors (and sponsors) are the ones who will invest the most in our success; but it is up to us to carry ourselves across that finish line to success. The more honest, intentional, and confident we can be with ourselves and our mentors, the clearer we will get on our goals,; and the more our mentors will be able to help us achieve them. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. A mentoring relationship has to be approached actively - We should identify our challenges, and approach a mentor with an agenda. 2. Every morning, give yourself a few minutes to think about 3 things you are grateful for in your life. This gratitude exercise will help us see positivity in our lives. 3. Learn to say NO. Be mindful of what all you pile up in your plate and have the realization that there is a finite amount of space in that plate. 4. Remember the 4 key traits to be successful: Be goal-oriented, work hard, ask for feedback and self-reflect often.

My guest this week is Zena Werb, whose research has had a profound impact on our understanding of development, cancer, and the epithelial microenvironment. Her publication list is truly inspiring with >500 papers and counting, including multiple seminal manuscripts. Despite this rich history, I was struck by how deeply involved she still was in her active projects and her infectious passion for scientific discovery. Many senior faculty go the administrative route, spending more and more time leading large projects and campus initiatives. In contrast, Zena proves that it is possible to stay focused on the science and that there’s always something new and exciting to work on. Finally, Zena received the UCSF Lifetime Achievement in Mentoring Award in 2015 and shares her pro tips for how to train students and postdocs.

Listen NowOver approximately the past decade the health care industry has become increasingly committed to financially incenting physicians and other clinicians, or tying performance to reimbursement.  Commonly termed "pay for performance"(P4P), these arrangements are increasingly employed in the Medicare (i.e., under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act, or MACRA) and Medicaid programs and by commercial insurers, most notable accountable care models and bundled payment arrangements.   One might assume because P4P models are now common there is research evidence that demonstrates they are effective in, again, improving care quality, patient outcomes and lowering spending growth.  That is not the case.  For example, a systematic review published by Cochrane in 2011 found "there is insufficient evidence to support or not support the use of financial incentives to improve the quality of primary health care."  Among other examples, for all the attention the Massachusetts' Alternative Quality Contracts (AQCs) have received since they were launched in 2009, it remains unclear if they have reduced spending or spending growth.   Because P4P models have not proved out, payers and providers, for example, England's National Health Service and in the US the integrated, 12 hospital system, Geisinger Health, have substantially reduced incentive payments or are returning to paying providers straight salaries.            During this 27 minute conversation, Professor Soumerai discusses his interest in the P4P topic, describes P4p arrangements, summarizes his and others' review of the research evidence relative to the effectiveness of P4P arrangements and suggests model designs that may be more effective.  Stephen B. Soumerai is Professor of Population Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute.  He also co-chairs the Statistics and Evaluative Sciences concentration within Harvard University's health policy Ph.D. program.  Dr. Soumerai recently served as International Trustee for the Canadian Health Services Research Foundation.  Dr. Soumerai has published more than 250 original scientific articles in leading scientific journal, such as the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the American Medical Association.  He is well known nationally and internationally for his work on the impacts of health policies and methods to improve the quality of medical practice.  He frequently advises Congress, state legislatures and federal and international agencies on the design of drug cost containment, coverage and quality-of-care policies, evidence-based health policy and his research has been used extensively to support expanded economic access to medications in Medicaid and Medicare. He is the recipient of numerous honors including numerous article of the year awards from national and international scientific societies, named lectureships, and is the recipient of the Everett Mendelsohn Excellence in Mentoring Award from the Harvard University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.Professor Soumerai's 2015 and 2016 CDC articles noting in this discussion are at: https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2015/15_0187.htm and https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2016/16_0133.htmA summary of these works can be found at: http://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2017/1/25/14375776/pay-for-performance-doctors-bonuses This is a public episode.
