What do parasites see when they look at the world around them? And how is a changing climate modifying the environments they thrive in? As our climate shifts and changes, parasites too are on the move constantly looking for new hosts and new prospects. For parasites, it is the gold rush. We talk to Prof. Daniel Brooks about how climate change is expanding the reach of parasites and what options or tools we have to combat their impact us and ecosystems. As the COVID pandemic shows, there are many hidden ambushes waiting to happen. The Linnean Future Podcast Series is an initiative by The Linnean Society of London in response to the ongoing planetary emergency. This series brings you stories from around the world that explore the impacts of climate change on every aspect of our lives. Through the series we will be meeting researchers, practitioners, activists, lawyers, and others who are studying these climatic changes, tracking their causes and impacts, and working on solutions. The Linnean Society of London is committed to Net Zero (with offsets) by 2022 and reducing its carbon emissions by at least half by 2030. Speakers: Prof. Daniel Brooks Interviewer: Padmaparna Ghosh Producer: Ross Ziegelmeier

In midst of the pandemic, among the many urgent public demands, Chicago took the time to assess the propriety of monuments to historical figures like Abraham Lincoln. Cities across the country are grappling with the legacy of such figures, many of whom did not live perfect lives. Chicago's effort was part of a larger social movement to remove from sight, or to hold accountable, historical and contemporary figures, including Christopher Columbus, Thomas Jefferson, Dr. Seuss, Woodrow Wilson, J.K. Rowling, and even Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant. Americans are now regularly “cancelled” for actions and statements made many years ago. Is "cancel culture" an important tool of social justice or a new form of intimidation by the powerful? Does canceling someone work to deter bad behavior? How does cancellation and its potential to chill speech interact with the First Amendment? Speakers:Prof. Nadine Strossen, John Marshall Harlan II Professor of Law, Emerita, New York Law School & Former President, American Civil Liberties UnionJonathan D. Urick, Associate Chief Counsel, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Litigation CenterProf. Anders Walker, Lillie Myers Professor of Law; Professor of History, St. Louis University School of LawModerator: Hon. Stephen N. Limbaugh, Jr., Senior Judge, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri

Leading the charge for abolition during the Civil War-era, among others, were abolitionists with deeply held religious beliefs. Today, virtually everyone supports religious liberty and virtually everyone opposes discrimination. But how do we handle the hard questions that arise when exercises of religious liberty seem to discriminate unjustly? Or when anti-discrimination laws unjustly constrain religious liberty? How do we promote the common good while respecting conscience in a diverse society? For example, many religious liberty questions have arisen in response to the redefinition of marriage, such as when bakers, florists, and photographers who do not wish to prove same-sex wedding services and charge for discrimination. This conflict extends well beyond the LGBT arena, notably in the abortion debate. What counts as discrimination, when is it unjust, and when should it be unlawful? Should the law give religion and conscience special protection at all, and if so, why? Might the protection of religious liberty for all serve the ever so pressing need to calming fear and polarization in today’s society?Speakers:Prof. Thomas C. Berg, James L. Oberstar Professor of Law and Public Policy, University of St. Thomas School of LawJustin Edward Butterfield, Deputy General Counsel, First Liberty InstituteD. John Sauer, Solicitor General, MissouriModerator: Hon. James C. Ho, Judge, United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit

The Fourteenth Amendment, adopted in 1868, dramatically changed constitutional law. How are we to understand these changes? How would an originalist understand these changes? Did the Fourteenth Amendment change our Federalism and, if so, how much? Does the Fourteenth Amendment protect unenumerated rights?Speakers:Prof. Evan D. Bernick, Assistant Professor, Northern Illinois University College of LawProf. Ilan Wurman, Associate Professor, Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law, Arizona State UniversityModerator: Hon. Chad A.

Many of us are familiar with the biblical story of Noah's Ark, the wooden boat that preserved all life in Earth in ‘pairs'. Thanks to the floating rescue of all species in ‘reproductive twos', Noah was able to repopulate Earth. But that was a fable. Or was it? Many scientist have come to realise that we can no longer conserve many species of plants and animals in their natural habitats at the current rate of endangerment to their survival. So scientists have begun to create their own “arks”. In this podcast we speak with Prof. Mike Bruford and Dr. Elinor Breman about their “rescue boats”; and with Prof. Gretta Pecl about the great migration of animals as they too seek an ark in which they can survive. The Linnean Future Podcast Series is an initiative by The Linnean Society of London in response to the ongoing planetary emergency.

One size can never fit all. So, is it fair that all countries should have Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050? And if they have to, what is the most just path for the whole world to achieve Net Zero in the 28 years? Join us as we discuss Net Zero 2050 with Prof. Navroz Dubash, who explores the complexities and specificities of different nations' global efforts to reduce carbon emissions, and illustrates possibilities for innovation and collaboration within and between nations.

About 20,000 heads of state, diplomats and activists will convene a critical conference in the Scottish city of Glasgow – popularly known as COP26 (Conference of the Parties). In our launch episode of our Linnean Future podcast series, we hash out the long history of climate negotiations with Prof. Mark Maslin. We chart the political journey of international environmental negotiations, the challenges that COP26 faces, and what it hopes to achieve. The Linnean Future podcast series is an initiative by The Linnean Society of London in response to the ongoing planetary emergency. Twelve episodes over twelve months will bring you stories from around the world that explore the wide-ranging impacts of climate change. Over the series, we will be bringing you vivid interviews, sharp opinions, current research and field science that we hope will help explain the complex and deeply intertwined relationship between us and the planet.

In this episode, we talked about the Fifth Circuit's rulings on Texas's controversial legislation, the SB8. SB8 makes every woman who seeks abortion "sui-able" by any private citizen for damages over 10,000, and attorneys' fees. The Fifth Circuit refused to stay the enforcement of SB8, based on a classic Article III standing argument, which is the lack of enforcement connection with the defendants. We also talked about the Fifth Circuit's dynamic after the confirmation of Justice Barrett, and the "audition" process for circuit justices who aim for the Supreme Court Justice position. Speakers:Prof. Leo Yu, Clinical Professor of Southern Methodist University, Dedman School of Law Prof. Brian Owsley, Associate Professor of the University of North Texas, Dallas College of Law

The book aims to sketch out the contours of the emerging field of crisis lawyering. Contributors to this volume explore cases surrounding domestic violence; dealing with immigrants in detention and banned from travel; policing in Ferguson, Missouri; the kidnapping of journalists; and climate change, among other crises. Their analysis not only serves as guidance to lawyers in such situations, but also helps others who deal with crises understand those crises—and the role of lawyers in them—better so that they may respond to them more effectively, efficiently, collaboratively and creatively. Speakers Prof. Ray Brescia - The Hon. Harold R. Tyler Chair in Law and Technology; Professor of Law at Albany Law School Prof. Eric K. Stern - Professor, College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity at the University at Albany Lee Wang - Director of Strategic Initiatives at the Immigrant Defense Project David McCraw '92 - Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for the New York Times Company Prof. Sarah F.

As the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election continues, its critics have levied a number of constitutional claims against it that are highly disputed, increasing the likelihood that the Supreme Court will ultimately have to resolve such legal disagreements. Questions of executive power therefore must play a central role in the evaluation of the qualifications and suitability of President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. On Thursday, July 12, 2018, the American Constitution Society held a briefing addressing the legality of the special counsel’s investigation, the constitutional scope of executive power, and how to thoroughly question the nominee’s views on these subjects.

Capitalism is an expansive system: if it is to remain stable, it must continually incorporate new milieus and spheres of life, new social and natural spaces of economic exploitation. But what happens with this “external” element when it becomes an “internal” one? How does it change? And how does it change capitalism in return? | Center for Advanced Studies LMU: 20.01.2016 | Speakers: Prof. Dr. Manuela Boatcă, Prof. Nivedita Menon, Ph.D. | Moderation: Prof. Dr. Christoph Knill

Brains are highly interconnected networks of millions to billions of neurons. How they work and how they process and store information − these questions are addressed differently by both speakers. Alexander Borst is interested in the processing of neuronal information at the level of individual neurons or small neuronal circuits. As an example he will present the structure of the neural circuit and its key elements responsible for performing the computations of photoreceptor signals in the visual system of the fly whereas Moritz Helmstädter develops and applies methods to map neuronal networks at a larger scale. In his talk, he gives insights into the new field of connectomics, the measurement of communication maps of neuronal circuits. | Center for Advanced Studies LMU: 14.01.2016 | Speakers: Prof. Dr. Alexander Borst, Dr. Moritz Helmstädter | Moderation: Prof. Dr. Martin Wirsing

Der Mangel an Spendern führt in Deutschland jeden Tag dazu, dass Patienten vergeblich auf das rettende Spenderorgan warten. Die selbstlose Lebendspende einer Niere oder eines Teils der Leber durch Verwandte und Freunde kann für einige Patienten eine rechtzeitige Transplantation ermöglichen. Neben den medizinisch-technischen Herausforderungen birgt die Lebendspende von Organen erhebliche rechtliche, medizinethische und gesellschaftliche Probleme. Im Rahmen dieses Workshops soll die Frage der Risikobewertung bei der Lebendspende fakultätsübergreifend diskutiert werden, um dann den Bogen zu anderen Bereichen des Lebens zu schlagen, bei denen Menschen besonderen Risiken ausgesetzt werden. | Center for Advanced Studies: 02.12.2011 | Speakers: Prof. Bruno Meiser, Dr. Manfred Stangl, Dr. Markus Guba | Moderation: Prof. Stefan Endres
