Topics discussed in this Episode include:Dr. McRae's development academically and administratively around the idea of experiences outside the classroom as an important part of transformational learning of students, which is part of her research interest, and is part of her current roles at the University of Victoria and as the head of WACE.She reviews some of the aspects of the first move of the WACE secretariate to Waterloo, Canada from its previous home in the USA. And she talks about the special role WACE plays in the world as the only international organization supporting WIL/Co-op that promotes the network-of-network idea with national organizations and individual universities around the world.One of WACE's primary activities is to hold World Conferences alternating with Research Symposia around the world. The last World Conference last June (2023) was at Waterloo and Dr. McRae reviews what it was like, especially having it at her home University. The next Research Symposium in 2024 will be at Trollhättan in Sweden.In addition to conferences and working with the network-of-networks, WACE is sponsoring a program with a company, Practera, called the Global Challenge Program. It features students from multiple international universities coming together on-line to solve the problem of another entity in a short time, giving them some global experience when they might not be able to travel abroad.We ended on a discussion of how WIL/Co-op and her University at Waterloo must leverage ideas from all over the world to keep fresh and current this form of transformational experiential learning.Resources discussed in this episode:https://uwaterloo.ca/https://waceinc.org/https://waceinc.org/gc-key-dateshttps://practera.com/Music Credits: C'est La Vie by Derek Clegg

From hearing aids to cochlear implants, from tinnitus to speech-in-noise, AI is everywhere. On this episode, professor Fan-Gang Zeng (UC Irvine) discusses where audiologists may see AI show up next, and the promise this technology holds for assessment and treatment. Zeng's research focuses on the ways hearing and the brain are linked, like through tinnitus or with cochlear implants. At the 2023 Research Symposium on Hearing at the upcoming ASHA Convention, he will present on the implications of AI for audiological research and care.
From the moment a patient approaches their primary care provider about balance problems, the road to recovery can be long and expensive. But audiologist Devin McCaslin (University of Michigan) is working to simplify that path and reduce costs--using artificial intelligence.This technology can help patients receive needed care, and McCaslin discusses how an AI system, which he helped to develop, coordinates care for patients with dizziness and puts them in front of the appropriate providers.McCaslin will be presenting as a part of the 2023 Research Symposium on Hearing at the upcoming ASHA Convention.

Both researchers look at how these trusted community members can help clinicians close the hearing health gap.
Listen to a blog summary of a trending review published by Aging (Aging-US), entitled, "New hallmarks of ageing: a 2022 Copenhagen ageing meeting summary." ______________________________________ Humans battle a number of biological processes with age that lead to the gradual deterioration of cells and tissues. Frailty, disability, disease, and death are all costly fates of aging. Researchers who study aging aim to change this fate, however, the mechanisms of aging are still all but fully understood. In 2013, López-Otín and colleagues attempted to identify these biological processes and proposed the original nine hallmarks of aging: genomic instability, telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations, mitochondrial dysfunction, loss of proteostasis, deregulated nutrient-sensing, cellular senescence, stem cell exhaustion, and altered intercellular communication. These hallmarks of aging have helped to provide a framework for thought about the causes and consequences of aging, as well as potential targets for therapeutic interventions. Now, nine years later, the hallmarks of aging have been updated in light of recent discoveries. “In the nearly past 10 years, our in-depth exploration on ageing research has enabled us to formulate new hallmarks of ageing which are compromised autophagy, microbiome disturbance, altered mechanical properties, splicing dysregulation, and inflammation, among other emerging ones.” This update was presented on March 22, 2022, at the “New Hallmarks of Ageing” research symposium in Copenhagen, Denmark. On August 29, 2022, a review paper summarizing the symposium was published in Aging (Aging-US), entitled, “New hallmarks of ageing: a 2022 Copenhagen ageing meeting summary.” Full blog - https://aging-us.org/2022/09/the-2022-new-hallmarks-of-ageing-research-symposium/ DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.204248 Corresponding authors - Tinna Stevnsner - tvs@mbg.au.dk, Lene Juel Rasmussen - lenera@sund.ku.dk, Evandro F.

After the Second World War, western policymakers established the Bretton Woods system to protect capitalism from the forces of fascism and socialism. For a long time, this idea worked, in part because the balance between national interests and the global economy did not get too far out of whack. However, over the past 20 years, global capitalism ran ahead of domestic concerns in individual nation states, while some countries failed to observe the international rules. As policymakers begin the process of crafting a new Bretton Woods, and seek to embed the values that liberal democracies want to uphold, practitioners must understand the implications for asset classes and portfolio construction. - Rana Foroohar, Financial Times & CNN.

Today’s guests help us rethink what’s possible in hearing treatment. We talk with Jeff Holt and Tina Stankovic, scientists on the forefront of hearing research. Jeff discusses an unexpected discovery that tied a specific gene to a genetic form of hearing loss. And Tina describes her investigations into ways to reverse sensorineural hearing loss—the most common type. What are the obstacles and possible solutions? Both talked with me at the 2019 ASHA Convention, where they presented at the Research Symposium on Hearing. Then, we hear from Bob Hillman, recipient of the 2019 Alfred K. Kawana Award for Lifetime Achievement in Publications. We talk about the twist in his path that changed everything in his work with the voice and voice disorders.
The second part of our PG Research Symposium features an interview with winner of the Professor Carole Goble award for Best Doctoral Paper Alaa Alamahdi. Alaa's paper is titled: Evaluating the Impact of Pseudo-Colour and Coordinate System on the Detection of Medication-Induced ECG Changes.

Dr. Julie Silver has been an integral part of developing the new Spaulding Research Institute from conception to launch. Her research and clinical work have focused on improving gaps in the delivery of healthcare services, particularly cancer rehabilitation. She has published many scientific reports and is well-known for her ground-breaking work on “impairment-driven cancer rehabilitation.” She is the co-founder and co-director of the Cancer Rehabilitation Group for the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine, a research-focused interdisciplinary professional society. As a healthcare leader, Dr. Silver also is committed to supporting the healthcare workforce, and she is a researcher and nationally recognized expert on inclusion, diversity and equity. She has published multiple reports on bibliometrics—educating researchers about both conventional and alternative metrics—aimed at supporting both research dissemination and faculty promotion. Her work has been featured in several major print and broadcast media throughout the United States. In Part 2 of this presentation on the topic of “How to Lead High Impact Strategic Initiatives in Health Care,” Dr. Silver specifies that you need to tell a compelling story and every story needs a story board. She tells faculty members, here is your story and here are the parts that are missing. She recognized that medical societies had to do more to equitably support our faculties so that we could be promoted and compensated better. She was able to show that women are under-represented in recognition awards. She also looked at elections. For example, one of her studies demonstrated that for 10 medical societies, they had zero leadership positions for women in the past decade. It also is useful to look at micro inequities. Women are not showing up in medical society newsletters, which means that it is not possible to hear about their work. Progress is underway because medical societies all around the U.S. are beginning to pass gender equity resolutions.
Episode 34 of the CS@Manchester podcast features and interview with Dr Henry Reeve, who recently won the 'Prof Steve Furber Medal for Outstanding Doctoral Thesis' in Computer Science at the PG Research Symposium in the Department of Computer Science.

Her work has been featured in several major print and broadcast media throughout the United States. In Part 1 of this presentation, Dr. Silver addresses the topic of “How to Lead High Impact Strategic Initiatives in Health Care” from the perspective of the traditional three hats worn in academic medicine: medical education, clinician, and researcher. When dealing with patients who had polio, she came to the realization that someone had to record their stories regarding what happened to them, which led to her creating an oral history project. When it comes to innovation, it is not enough to have a great idea, but to have a strategy around it, which means the necessity of developing an innovation engine that takes a great idea to enable others to understand it.Tipping points really matter and are the hardest part by being able to define what really makes a difference. Another key essential is to leverage your network. When you want to have divergent change, it helps to have a bridging network and to be able to leverage different groups to bring about big change.

Biofilm is a thin, slimy film of bacteria. Daniel Wozniak, Ph.D., of The Ohio State University is a recognized expert in the field of infectious diseases. Recently, he visited Texas Biomed as the keynote speaker at the Research Symposium 2019. Dr. Wozniak is looking for new ways to treat stubborn infections that often make life miserable for patients or ultimately claim their lives. These secondary infections are the kinds of diseases caused by bacteria that often plague vulnerable patients. He specializes in the kinds of infections suffered by patients with cystic fibrosis and wound care patients. Daniel Wozniak, Ph.D., served as keynote speaker at Texas BIomed's Research Symposium 2019. Bacteria that cause chronic infections in patients create problems that add up to more than $25 billion dollars in health care every year in the U.S. Part of Dr. Wozniak's work focuses on biofilms which are microorganisms that are attached to a surface, play a critical role in infectious diseases. They are innately resistant to antibiotics and often difficult to et rid of. Dr. Wozniak calls the treatment of biofilms a "critically important challenge for anti-infective programs in the pharmaceutical industry."

I met Dr Tia McNair at the Research Symposium at the University of Michigan. She is highly intelligent and knew her stuff and I, along with the audience, was intrigued. She discussed diversity, equity and inclusion and broke it down so that it was easy to follow along. Dr Tia Brown McNair is the Vice President in the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Student Success at Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) in Washington, DC. She oversees both funded projects and AAC&U's continuing programs on equity, inclusive excellence, high-impact educational practices, and student success, including AAC&U's Network for Academic Renewal series of yearly working conferences. McNair also directs AAC&U's Summer Institute on High-Impact Educational Practices and Student Success. McNair serves as the project director for several AAC&U initiatives: "Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation," “Committing to Equity and Inclusive Excellence: Campus-Based Strategies for Student Success,” and Purposeful Pathways: Faculty Planning and Curricular Coherence.” She directed AAC&U's projects on "Advancing Underserved Student Success through Faculty Intentionality in Problem-Centered Learning,” "Advancing Roadmaps for Community College Leadership to Improve Student Learning and Success,” and "Developing a Community College Roadmap. McNair chaired AAC&U's Equity Working Group that was part of the General Education Maps and Markers (GEMs) project that represented a large-scale, systematic effort to provide “design principles” for 21st-century learning and long-term student success. She is the lead author of the book Becoming a Student-Ready College: A New Culture of Leadership for Student Success (July 2016). McNair is a co-author on the publication Assessing Underserved Students' Engagement in High-Impact Practices. Prior to joining AAC&U, McNair served as the Assistant Director of the National College Access Network (NCAN) in Washington, DC. McNair's previous experience also includes serving as a Social Scientist/Assistant Program Director in the Directorate for Education and Human Resources at the National Science Foundation (NSF), Director of University Relations at the University of Charleston in Charleston, West Virginia; the Statewide Coordinator for the Educational Talent Search Project at the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission; and the Interim Associate Director of Admissions and Recruitment Services at West Virginia State University. She has served as an adjunct faculty member at several institutions where she taught first-year English courses.
