Associate Professor Caroline Ford leads the Gynaecological Cancer Research Group at the University of New South Wales. Over the past eight weeks, the Covid19 lock down has had a huge impact on the the laboratory work of many scientists, including Professor Caroline's team. At the time of this conversation with Professor Ford, she was looking forward to the team going back to lab to work which is due this week. Professor Ford established her lab at the Lowy Cancer Research Group in 2010 after international postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Toronto, Canada and Lund University, Sweden. Her research aims to understand why gynaecological cancers develop, how and why they spread throughout the body, and how best to treat them. She leads major projects on the early detection of ovarian cancer and molecular targets in ovarian and endometrial cancer. Professor Ford is also a long-time advocate for women in science, and was named a “Superstar of STEM” by Science & Technology Australia, a program aimed at smashing the stereotype of what a scientist looks like. In 2018 she founded the STEMMinist Book Club a global and virtual community focused on feminism and women in STEMM, which has rapidly grown to include over 4500 members from 30 countries worldwide.

Indonesia’s five-yearly elections are now just over a month away, and Talking Indonesia is switching to a weekly format until after polling day on April 17, to cover the key themes, important groups and pivotal developments that will shape the outcome. The first of our pre-election episodes focuses on labour and politics in Indonesia. Unlike many other countries, no labour party or party of the left represents Indonesia’s working class in parliament, increasing the challenge for Indonesia’s labour movement to secure favourable outcomes for workers. How will the result of the 2019 elections matter to labour unions, and how can they influence the result? In this week's Talking Indonesia podcast, Dr Dave McRae discusses these issues with Professor Michele Ford, director of the Sydney Southeast Asia Centre at the University of Sydney and a leading expert on the labour movement in Asia. Professor Ford’s new book, From Migrant to Worker: The Global Unions and Labor Migration in Asia, has just been published by Cornell University Press. Her study of labour and politics in Indonesia has been jointly conducted with Professor Teri L. Caraway and will be published next year by Cambridge University Press. The Talking Indonesia podcast is co-hosted by Dr Dave McRae from the University of Melbourne’s Asia Institute, Dr Jemma Purdey from Monash University, Dr Charlotte Setijadi from the Singapore Management University and Dr Dirk Tomsa from La Trobe University.

Mental health among teenagers is out of control, there is an epidemic of issues, and things are so much worse than they used to be - that is the message that has been perpetuated in the media and that has largely been bought into in schools. But the data simply does not support that narrative, according to Tamsin Ford, professor of child and adolescent psychiatry at the University of Exeter.Professor Ford was one of the principal researchers for the largest study of mental health in 2-19 year olds in the UK, which was published last year and funded by the NHS. It was a follow up to two previous studies, one in 1999 and one 2004. “The question we were answering was how many young people in England have a serious impairing mental health condition. This was clinically relevant problems, not mild conditions,” she explains on this week’s Tes Podagogy podcast (see audio player below to listen). “If we look at the 5-15 year old group, across the three studies we see a bit of an increase, but not much. It is a matter of a couple of per cent, and the increase is almost all explained by more teenagers having more emotional problems, so significant anxiety and depression.” The figures for this group were as follows: 9.7 per cent in 1999 and 10.1 per cent in 2004 to 11.2 per cent in 2017. In this podcast, Professor Ford delves deeper into the data (including some figures around very high levels of problems among 16-19 year old girls), discusses what schools can do to support mental health and explains how social media is not necessarily the driver of problems it is widely considered to be.

All week long, the pundits were remarking at how "restrained" the president has been in the wake of allegations by Professor Ford against SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Until today, when the president stuck his middle finger in all those pundits' eyes. MOMocrats Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills discuss the week's developments in the Kavanaugh hearings from the progressive point of view, plus new allegations in the NY Times about Rod Rosenstein - and how they are being refuted by other sources. An Engender Media Group production.
The full broadcast of Boston Public Radio from Thursday, September 20th, 2018 "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd brought us the latest updates on the embattled Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh, who has been accused of sexual assault by California professor Christine Blasey Ford. We opened up the lines and asked you about the Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee imposing a Friday morning deadline on Professor Ford to decide if she will testify on Monday. If you’re a Republican, do you support this tactic? If Kavanaugh isn’t fully investigated, will questions about his legitimacy be a dark cloud over his tenure? Former secretary of public safety Andrea Cabral joined us for her recurring criminal justice segment, "Law and Order." The smash-hit musical "Hamilton" hits Boston this fall. Does it live up to the hype? WGBH arts editor and "Open Studio" host Jared Bowen gave us the details. Harvard Graduate School of Education Professor Paul Reville weighed in on gubernatorial candidate Jay Gonzalez's plan to pay for his education and transportation initiatives with a tax on universities. The big egos and big money that make up professional football are central to journalist Mark Leibovich’s latest book, "Big Game: The NFL In Dangerous Times." Jonathon Alsop of the Boston Wine School shared some of his favorite reds for the beginning of fall.
More developments in Kavanaugh confirmation process. Professor Ford refuses to testify until full FBI investigation conducted. Senator Hirono (D-HI) tells me to shut-up. Senator Feinstein (D-CA) isn’t sure if Professor Ford is being completely truthful - apparently not getting the memo that women should always be believed when making allegations. This process is a complete and utter circus - and it’s the natural result of what happens when you try to use a political process to seek justice. Everything is political. Men: join me in a day of shutting up.

'Central Australia' is among the most majestic paintings of the series that emerged out of Nolan's visit to Central Australia during 1949. Nolan himself stated to Professor Ford, who purchased this painting from Nolan's 1950 solo exhibition at David Jones' Art Gallery, that 'in many ways it was, I think, the most complete statement I was able to make on Central Australia'. Like other paintings of this series, it arose out of Nolan's experience of flying over inland Australia, accompanying mail runs to remote settlements. Using an aerial viewpoint to increase the sense of vastness, his painting celebrates the extraordinary beauty of desert colour, form and light.
This week, Mike and Jay open the show with a look at the accusation of attempted rape leveled at Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh by Christine Blasey Ford. The Guys have a lot of differences of opinion on this issue, though they do agree on the importance of a process that is fair to both Professor Ford and Judge Kavanaugh. Next is a discussion of President Trump's call to release intelligence related to the Russia investigation. Jay advances that argument that President Trump is lying when he said he hasn't read the documents and that the president is timing his order for maximum media impact and the greatest political benefit. After that, the Guys talk about the latest in the ongoing trade war with China. Mike points out that the best possible outcome for the United States would be President Trump being right about his risky, unorthodox strategy. Jay adds that even if Trump is right regarding China, his trade strategy with our EU and Canadian allies still seems highly suspect. Then Mike and Jay discuss an important federal court ruling on political contribution disclosure rules. Mike thinks the ruling is both an example of what happens when Congress delegates too much authority to regulators, as well as a win for transparency. Jay agrees on the delegation issue, but has his doubts about the wisdom of the ruling, as well as whether it will be affirmed on appeal. Our listener mail question this week comes from Don, who asks if terms limits might make government more responsive and effective. *Help Mike decide the topic of his next book* by taking this super-quick one question survey ( https://nku.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8IDqljd2rYqYEkZ ).
