Joseph A. Skloot joins Jana Byars to talk about his new book, First Impressions: Sefer hasimdim and Early Modern Hebrew Printing (Brandeis UP, 2023). First Impressions uncovers the history of creative adaptation and transformation through a close analysis of the creation of the Sefer Hasidim book. In 1538, a partnership of Jewish silk makers in the city of Bologna published a book entitled Sefer Hasidim, a compendium of rituals, stories, and religious instruction that primarily originated in medieval Franco-Germany. How these men, of Italian and Spanish descent, came to produce a book that would come to shape Ashkenazic culture, and Jewish culture more broadly, over the next four centuries is the basis of this kaleidoscopic study of the history of Hebrew printing in the sixteenth century. During these early years of printing, the classic works of ancient and medieval Hebrew and Jewish literature became widely available to Jewish (and non-Jewish) readers for the first time. Printing, though, was not merely the duplication and distribution of pre-existing manuscripts, it was the creative adaptation and transformation of those manuscripts by printers. Ranging from Catholic Bologna to Protestant Basel to the Jewish heartland of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Skloot uncovers the history of that creativity by examining the first two print editions of Sefer Hasidim. Along the way, he demonstrates how volumes that were long thought to be eternal and unchanging were in fact artifacts of historical agency and contingency, created by and for human beings.

Chapter 1:Summary of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks"The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" is a nonfiction book written by Rebecca Skloot and published in 2010. The book tells the story of Henrietta Lacks, a woman whose cancer cells were taken without her knowledge or consent in 1951 and became the first human cells to grow and multiply indefinitely in a laboratory setting.Skloot explores the impact of Henrietta's cells, known as HeLa cells, on scientific research and medical advancements, as well as the ethical questions raised by their use. She also delves into the history of Henrietta's life, her family's experiences with medical exploitation and racism, and their ongoing struggles to understand and come to terms with her legacy.Through interviews with Henrietta's family members, scientists, and medical professionals, as well as extensive research into medical ethics and the history of medical experimentation on African Americans, Skloot presents a complex and thought-provoking narrative that raises important questions about the intersection of science, race, and ethics.Overall, "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" offers a powerful and insightful look at the lasting impact of one woman's cells on medical science, and the complicated legacy of medical experimentation and exploitation in the United States.Chapter 2:The Writer of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks- Rebecca Skloot Rebecca Skloot is an American science writer and author of the bestselling book, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. She was born on September 19, 1972, in Springfield, Illinois. Skloot attended the University of Colorado where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a focus on creative writing.She began her career as a freelance science writer, contributing articles to numerous publications including The New York Times Magazine, O, The Oprah Magazine, Discover, and others.Her debut book, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, was published in 2010 and became an instant bestseller. The book tells the story of Henrietta Lacks, an African American woman whose cancer cells were taken without her permission in 1951 and used for medical research, leading to numerous scientific breakthroughs. The book explores the ethical and social implications of this event and its impact on Lacks' family.Skloot's work has received numerous awards and honors, including the National Academies Communication Award, the Wellcome Trust Book Prize, and the Heinz Award. She is also the founder and president of The Henrietta Lacks Foundation, which supports education and medical research efforts related to ethical issues in medicine.Chapter 3:5 Deep and Insightful Quotes From The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks1 "Black scientists and technicians, many of them women, used cells from a black woman to help save the lives of millions of Americans, most of whom were white. And they did so on the same campus—and at the very same time—that state officials were conducting the infamous Tuskegee syphilis studies."This quote highlights the irony and injustice of how Henrietta Lacks' cells were used to advance medicine while Black people were being treated unjustly in the medical field.2 "No one had ever asked the Lackses for their consent, and now researchers didn't have to. For scientific purposes, cell lines were considered commodities, and could be bought and sold like factory-made products."This quote exposes the unethical practices of the medical community during Henrietta's time and raises questions about consent and ownership in medical research.3 "If our mother is so important to science, why can't we get health insurance?"This quote shows the personal impact that Henrietta's contribution to science had on her family and raises...

I sent out 63 inmails through linkedin a few weeks back and received only 2 responses. My mistake… I did not tailor my message to the individual.

När amerikanska Henrietta Lacks dog i livmoderhalscancer 1951, visste hon inte vilken enorm betydelse hennes tumörceller skulle få för den medicinska forskningen. Hör hennes historia. Amerikanskan Henrietta Lacks dog i livmoderhalscancer 1951, endast 31 år gammal. Innan hon dog sparade läkarna, utan att tala om det, en liten vävnadsbit från hennes cancertumör. Provet märktes HeLa för Henrietta Lacks och från vävnadsbiten kunde man för första gången få mänskliga celler att överleva i labb. Cellerna kom att rädda många människors liv, ge nya förutsättningar för den medicinska forskningen och resultera i ett Nobelpris för upptäckten av humant papillomvirus, HPV. Men var det rätt att ta cellerna utan att be Henrietta om lov? Reportaget sändes första gången 2013.

Experienced voices from different arenas of dance-in-education and others in attendance shared their questions and ideas, reflected on their practice and how the work of teaching artists impacts education and culture in this city.
