Today we sat down with Cher Hill and Neva Winters, authors of the article “I Hate the Global Warming Factory! Caring for Tadpoles During the Climate Emergency.” This article is also co-written with Ching-Chiu Lin who could not join us for the recording. The three authors are all researchers at Simon Fraser University. As part of the Eco-Justice and Climate Action mini-series, we explored the role of elementary school students in British Columbia as eco-action heroes and leaders of learning and research. Dive into the insights, perspectives, and surprises that students get into in a pond during a lunchtime program. Learn what children can teach us about love, courage, and climate action.Joe and Blane introduce guests Cher and Neva to discuss the article that brought them together, leading into the origin story, sharing their collaboration with Elder Rick Bailey on the salmon crisis on Coast Salish territories [2:21]. The conversation then follows how an encounter with tadpoles amidst a heat wave and a shrinking pond led to the students springing action, forming an outdoor learning club, a community film festival, and a fundraiser [5:13]. From there, Cher and Neva reflect on teaching kinship with the more-than-human world, the pedagogy of "superpowers" of different species and tadpoles, social-emotional learning, and a shared orientation toward learning as an act of love, inspired by Elder Rick [14:41]. This opens into a candid discussion of the action research methodology: indeterminate PAR cycles, ethics and permissions challenges, and how community synergies continuously reshaped the project's direction [22:08]. The episode closes with future directions, including a new school pollinator garden, and a reminder of the magic that happens when students lead the learning and research [34:47].Thank you Cher and Neva for sharing your work with us.Thank you to our listeners for tuning in to this episode of the Action Research Podcast, created by Adam Stieglitz, Joe Levitan, Shikha Diwakar, Cory Legassic, and Vanessa Gold.Produced by Shikha Diwakar and Vanja Lugonjic.Subscribe to our podcast on most major podcast distribution platforms, including Spotify and Apple Podcasts.How have you found yourself in the world of action research?

In this episode, we invite authors from the Centre for Sustainability Transitions, Stellenbosch university and collaborators from McGill university to discuss their article “Radical Incrementalism in Action Through Institutional Work: Case Studies of Embedded Research in South Africa”. As part of our special Eco-Justice and Climate Action series, the authors explore the complexities of navigating changemaking from within institutions. Listen in to discover secrets to radical change through slow and steady processes!In this episode, our co-hosts Joe and Blane introduce the team and the article at the center of today's discussion. They begin by grounding listeners in the broader context of South Africa for those who may be less familiar with its history and contemporary dynamics [2:20], before moving into the deeper motivations and relationships behind their collaboration and the development of the concept of radical incrementalism [4:15]. What does this term mean, and how is it done? Our own curiosity increased as we continued our conversation.– What gave rise to this feeling that they needed another way to think about how to pursue change? Some critical scholars might challenge the idea that incrementalism can actually be radical, perhaps the idea represents an abandonment of the drastic and immediate “change we need” concept? So, we ask the authors to respond to this critique [5:15]. The episode then explores how radical incrementalism is actually done, and the messiness and complexity behind this way of working, including questions of embeddedness, role conflicts, ethical dilemmas, and the importance of political literacy [26:27]. Finally, the conversation closes with reflections on how these ideas are shaping daily practice, and what kinds of changes the guests have observed as a result [37:40].

In this episode of The Lancet In Conversation With, editors Niall Boyce and Bea Gómez Pérez-Nievas are joined by three leading researchers to discuss highlights from The Lancet's special issue on neurology. The conversation covers three landmark studies: the PADOVA trial of prasinezumab in early-stage Parkinson's disease, the ORATORIO-HAND study extending ocrelizumab treatment to wheelchair-using patients with progressivemultiple sclerosis, and the HEAD study comparing tau PET tracers in Alzheimer's disease — each representing a significant step forward in the field. The guests also reflect on the broader forces reshaping neurology: the push toward earlier, biomarker-guided intervention, cross-specialty learning between the multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's fields, and emerging platforms such as CAR T-cell therapies and blood-based biomarkers. From the transformative success of spinal muscular atrophy treatment to the prospect of an EBV vaccine preventing MS, the discussion strikes a note of cautious optimism about a specialty that is entering a new therapeutic era.

Join host Jane McEachan as she discusses the FESSH Special issue with Professor Esther Vögelin & Professor Philip Honigmann. In hand surgery, we often discuss the delicate balance between surgical intervention and conservative treatment. It's crucial to understand that each patient's needs are unique. What works for one might not work for another. This upcoming FESSH Congress is themed "Restoration of the Balance" for a reason. We're not just aiming to restore anatomy; we're focused on restoring function tailored to individual patients. Let's explore how 3D printing technology and nerve transfers are shifting the landscape of treatment options. The goal? Achieve results that truly reflect the balance of patient needs and surgical possibilities. As we prepare for this year's congress, it's a reminder: the best outcomes come from collaboration between surgeons, therapists, and the patients themselves.

In this episode guest editors Dr. Rhodri Lloyd and Dr. Rick Howard discuss the Long-Term Athletic Development Special Issue published in issue 48-3 of Strength and Conditioning Journal.

In this episode of the EADV Podcast, Dr. Antonio Torrelo speaks with Dr. Andrea Diociaiuti, contributor to the recent JEACP Special issue on cutaneous mosaicism, to explore one of the most fascinating concepts in dermatology and genetics. Together, they discuss how mosaicism shapes the skin, the clinical patterns that help physicians recognise these conditions, and how advances in genetic sequencing are transforming diagnosis and patient care. The conversation also delves into the broader implications of mosaicism beyond the skin, the importance of careful clinical observation, and the increasing potential of precision medicine and targeted therapies. This episode offers listeners an accessible and forward-looking overview of a rapidly evolving field that is changing the way dermatologists understand genetics, skin biology, and personalised medicine.   Read the Special Issue: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/27686566/2025/4/3  

In this episode in the Eco-Justice and Climate Action Mini Series, we sat down with four members of the Climate Education and Teacher Education (CETE) team, which is based at the University of Northern British Columbia. Authors of “Mapping Climate Change Education: Reflections from an Education Design-Based Research Project from Northern British Columbia, Canada,” the CETE team created this project in response to the 2022 Association of Canadian Deans of Education report titled "Accord on Education for a Sustainable Future," which underscored urgency for climate change education. Join us for another great episode exploring the stories behind this collaborative and exciting action research project!To begin, our hosts Joe and Blane introduce the CETE team and the article that brought them together [00:00]. This leads into the origin story of the initiative and discussion of their team dynamics, which lead to a shared commitment to curriculum reform and a signature pedagogy built around people, place, and land [1:57]. The conversation then explores the co-creation process at the heart of the project, from building a national design team to running iterative workshop series across northern British Columbia, reflecting on how listening to teachers and communities continuously reshaped the project's direction [7:50]. From there, the team reflects on the iterative, cyclic nature of their design-based research, and the challenges of working within research frameworks that don't always honour more-than-human species and Indigenous ways of knowing [17:03]. We move to a discussion about the tension between theory and action, and between local focus and global relevance, focusing on how grounding the work in northern land, language, and Indigenous knowledge has proven to be both their most impactful contribution and a transferable model for others [22:23]. The team closes by sharing where the project stands today, and our hosts wrap up by honouring the messiness of action research as a defining strength of the journey, not a flaw [34:04].Thank you Hartley, Christine, Alexander and Glen for sharing your time and work with us.Thank you to our listeners for tuning in to this episode of the Action Research Podcast, created by Adam Stieglitz, Joe Levitan, Shikha Diwakar, Cory Legassic, and Vanessa Gold.Produced by Shikha Diwakar and Vanja Lugonjic.Subscribe to our podcast on most major podcast distribution platforms, including Spotify and Apple Podcasts.How have you found yourself in the world of action research?

What exactly is quantum computing? Why does it matter, and what would it actually mean to “win” the quantum race? Zach Yerushalmi, CEO of Elevate Quantum, a Mountain West–based public-private consortium advancing the U.S. quantum ecosystem, and Chris Miller join the podcast to discuss. Our conversation covers… What Quantum Computing Actually Is — A primer on qubits, superposition, and why quantum computers aren't “faster classical machines” but fundamentally different systems designed to simulate nature and solve specific classes of problems. Why Quantum Matters Now — Breakthroughs in error correction and hardware have shifted quantum from theory to an engineering race, with major implications for drug discovery, materials science, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. The Economic and National Security Stakes — Quantum's potential impact on cryptography, advanced manufacturing, biotech, and defense makes it a strategic technology with an extremely small margin for error in global competition. From Science Project to Industrial Policy Challenge — The bottleneck is no longer just physics but scaling. Talent pipelines, fabrication capacity, supply chains, and the kinds of public-private partnerships needed to move from lab prototypes to deployable systems. What Winning Looks Like — Leadership isn't just building the first powerful machine. It's shaping standards, securing supply chains, protecting encryption, diffusing capabilities across industry, and sustaining innovation in a tight U.S.–China technological race. Plus, the encryption stakes, the engineering bottlenecks, the race with China — and a reading list and job resources for those interested in the field.

Welcome to the first author interview in our mini series, Eco-Justice and Climate Action, where we aim to explore inspiring projects at the intersection of climate justice and action research. This series highlights work featured in the 2025 special issue of the Canadian Journal for Action Research, guest edited by Dr. Blane Harvey. We are excited to share these thought-provoking contributions with you.In today's episode, our co-hosts Joe and Shikha are joined by Ipek Türeli, Nathalie Malhamé, and Sarah Nabi who co-authored “Little Architects, Big Ideas: Climate Action Through Design-Based Learning, where big ideas meet small (but mighty) designers. Together, they reflect on their creative and inspiring collaboration in Montreal, Quebec, connecting Ipek's work at the Peter Fung Architecture Faculty at McGill University, with Nathalie and Sarah's fourth grade classes in Royal Vale School. They share their motivations behind the collaboration, surprise findings along the way, and the gratifying experience of exhibiting the students' work at both institutions.The conversation begins with introductions and the story of how the project came to life [2:00]. This led to exploring deeper connections between architecture, environmental justice, and experiential education [8:09] along with challenges and complexities that our guests Nathalie, Sarah and Ipek encountered and navigated in their project [13:18]. They then reflect on the role and importance of the undergraduate architecture students for the success of the collaboration [17:43]. We ask about the young designer's work and what it may reveal about different understandings of climate justice. Through these examples, we explore the surprises and tensions that emerged in the final designs [20:37], leading into a rich discussion about why exhibitions became such a powerful space for sharing this work and supporting student learning [25: 08]. For such a rich and impactful project, we were keen to learn the lasting impacts [30:11] before closing with final reflection and even a mic-drop moment!Thank you Ipek, Nathalie, and Sarah for sharing your time and work with us.And thanks for tuning in to this episode of the Action Research Podcast, created by Joe Levitan, Shikha Diwakar, Cory Legassic, Vanessa Gold, and Adam Stieglitz.Produced by Shikha Diwakar and Vanja Lugonjic.Subscribe to our podcast on most major podcast distribution platforms, including Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

In this episode we talk to Kayla and Paul about their paper "Challenging Anti-Fatness amid the Climate Crisis" which can be found in Volume 18 Issue 1, the Special Issue on Climate Change.CORRECTION: Emma says "Jess James" and "AABHL" instead of "Jen James" and "ASBH" - she's deeply apologetic and can only blame the switch to antipodean time zones and settings for the misspeaking.

Abby and Patrick welcome returning guest Loren Dent. As co-director of Brooklyn's Greene Clinic, Loren is the ideal person to unpack the history, meaning, and contemporary landscape of community psychoanalysis. Drawing on Brazilian analyst Gabriel Tupenambá's idea of the “institutional circuit,” Loren walks Abby and Patrick through a history extending from Freud's hopes for a “psychoanalysis for the people” to the refugee analyst diasporas of WW2 to the interventions of Jacques Lacan to contemporary efforts to bring a community psychoanalytic orientation to analytic institutions around the United States. As Loren, Abby, and Patrick explore, the idea of community also psychoanalysis raises questions about the communities psychoanalysis can serve, communities it has previously excluded, and psychoanalytic institutions as communities in their own right. Topics include the relationship between theory, practice, and doctrine; differing national histories of psychoanalysis; ego psychology and the question of adaptation; the embededness of signifiers; hierarchies and antagonisms within analytic institutions, as well as efforts to reconstellate them; the complicated stakes of “expanding access”; burnout as both an individual condition and institutional symptom; what drives people to practice psychoanalysis in the first place, and more.More about Loren at the Greene Clinic and about his courses at the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research.Works cited:Gabriel Tupinambá, The Desire of Psychoanalysis, Exercises in Psychoanalytic Thinking.Sigmund Freud, The Question of Lay Analysis.Elizabeth Ann Danto, Freud's Free Clinics: Psychoanalysis and Social Justice 1918-1938.Emily Kuriloff, Contemporary Psychoanalysis and the Legacy of the Third Reich.Resources:Foundation for Community PsychoanalysisPsychoanalytic Institute of Northern California (PINC) Community Psychoanalysis Track & ConsortiumThe Greene ClinicChicago Center for Psychoanalysis & PsychotherapyThe Kedzie Center, ChicagoWashington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis, Community Psychoanalysis Certificate ProgramBoston Psychoanalytic Society & Institute Concentration in Community PsychoanalysisDIVISION/Review, Special Issue on Community Psychoanalysis, 2022A podcast about psychoanalysis, politics, pop culture, and the ways we suffer now.

Cities aren't just structures. They're people. In the rapidly urbanising cities of the global majority, many of those people are migrant workers.  They often work informally, with limited protection when shocks hit. At the same time, they are vital to propping up and rebuilding cities after climate disasters. In this week's Cities 1.5 podcast episode, host David Miller speaks to Ritwika Basu, an environmental social scientist and urbanist who researches this invisible labour in small and medium-sized cities in India.Featured guests:Ritwika Basu, Environmental Social Scientist and Urbanist, and one of the guest editors of the Journal City Climate Policy and Economy's soon to be released Special Issue on Adaptation and Resilience in Cities of the Majority World: Advancing Equity and Justice in Practice, and Author of “Hidden Infrastructure of Urban Resilience: Labor, Precarity, and Economic Adaptation in India” which will be released to open access on April 15, 2026.Links:Resilient Cities (and how to build them) - Cities 1.5Journal of City Climate Policy and EconomyResources on Urban Climate Resilience - C40 Knowledge HubGood Green Jobs and Labour Migration: Opportunities for Urban Leaders - C40 Knowledge HubIf you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website at https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/Listen to the Cities 1.5 five-part miniseries “Going Steady with Herman Daly: How to Unbreak the Economy (and the Planet)" here: https://lnk.to/HDMiniSeriesCities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and the C40 Centre, and is supported by C40 Cities.

This week on the podcast we're time travelling with the fabulous Professor Keri Facer. How we think about the future or futures makes a difference to the decisions we make in schools today, and Keri has been asking critically important questions about educational futures, pasts and presents for the last 20 years, that are still as important today as they were when she published her brilliant 2011 book ‘Learning Futures: Education, Technology and Social Change'.Prof. Keri Facer is Professor of Educational and Social Futures at the University of Bristol, UK where she leads the British Academy ‘Times of a Just Transition' Programme, which brings together scholars from 6 continents and 14 disciplines, to explore how temporal assumptions, frames and processes structure the possibility of just transitions. She is also Co-investigator on the ESRC Centre for Sociodigital Futures, where she works on the implications of mixed reality tools for collective imagination. Keri is also Professor of Public Education at Black Mountains College, led by recent podcast guest, Ben Rawlence: https://www.goodimpactlabs.com/podcast/ben-rawlence.Keri was previously Zennström Professor in Climate Change Leadership at Uppsala University, expert advisory group member of UNESCO's Futures of Education Commission and Research Director at Futurelab. Keri is collaborating with the poverty charity, the Joseph Rowntree foundation, on their ‘imagination infrastructure' programme and is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Futures. Keri is also a co-Investigator of Transforming Education for Sustainable Futures: https://tesf.network/ In 2026, she is consolidating this work in three landmark publications: Chronoberg: a handbook of creative methods for temporal imagination (with Johannes Stripple); ‘Time & Possibility: A Field Guide' (with Harriet Hand); and Temporal Justice, a Special Issue for the Journal of Global Social Challenges. Keri's books include ‘Learning Futures: Education, Technology and Social Change' and ‘Working with Time in Qualitative Research'.

In this episode, we discuss… What science really is, both as body of knowledge and a constantly evolving process  Why one study is never enough and the importance of multiple methods, reproducibility, and scientific consensus over time When "gold standard" research falls short and why fields like nutrition require more flexible, creative approaches Science's built-in caution and how new ideas face a high bar of proof, slowing acceptance but strengthening reliability How doubt is manufactured, from the tobacco era to climate science, using fringe voices to challenge strong consensus The role of ideology, and how "freedom" narratives can shape public resistance to scientific evidence Acting without certainty and why we must make public health decisions even when data isn't 100% complete AI and misinformation and the promise and risk of tools like OpenAI in shaping how we consume science Naomi Oreskes Henry Charles Lea Professor of the History of Science Affiliated Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences ON LEAVE SPRING 2026 emailoreskes@fas.harvard.edu Faculty Assistant: Yaz Alfata Primary Areas of Research: Agnotology; the Political Economy of Scientific Knowledge; History and Philosophy of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Science and Technology Studies (STS); the History of Climate Change Disinformation Secondary Areas of Interest: Science Policy, Science and Religion, Women and Gender Studies   Naomi Oreskes is Henry Charles Lea Professor of the History of Science and Affiliated Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Harvard University.

Wie gelingt ein gutes Leben? Die Psychologie versucht diese große Frage zu beantworten. Dabei schaut die Wissenschaft aber oft nur auf einen extrem kleinen Teil der Menschheit. Das ist nicht klug. Denn es gibt auf dieser Welt noch ganz andere Ideen, Perspektive und Antworten als wir sie in den westlichen Industrieländern kennen. Diese Folge geht dem nach! Anders als sonst, aber vielleicht gerade deswegen besonders interessant.

Why should we ask students to learn about genocides? What outcomes do we aim for from this learning? How successful are we being and how can we do better? And why, in the end, does it matter? These questions form the heart of a recent special edition of Genocide Studies International titled “The Future of Genocide Education.” The stem from a conference at Rowan University co-sponsored by Rowan and the Zoryan Institute. The papers and conversations held there have been reworked into a series of articles that form the heart of the special issue.  I talk with two of the authors, James Waller and Maureen Hiebert, about their contributions to the issue, there experience at the conference, and their concerns and successes in teaching students about genocide.

Nations need manufacturing workforces that are competent, empowered, and diverse. Attracting and educating this base – ranging from operators and technicians to technologists and engineers – poses unique challenges and opportunities. Underinvestment in manufacturing education has led to a lack of integration of manufacturing content in higher education curriculum. In many countries, deep disconnects exist between manufacturing and workforce development. Expanding industries such as semiconductors and the submarine industrial base struggle to grow their workforce at a pace to support growth. And at times, manufacturing has struggled to attract young people and develop talent. This webinar will present a new 2025 special issue in SME Manufacturing Letters: Innovations in Manufacturing Education. This issue will provide a platform for findings that advance the frontiers of manufacturing education and workforce development. Topics will include, but are not limited to: innovative manufacturing education in higher education, community colleges, and K-12; learning technologies for manufacturing education and training; and novel approaches to experiential learning and labs. The presentation will include timeline, topics and scope, review process, and Q&A.

For a long time, it was believed that words were mostly arbitrary symbols. However, with advances in our ability to study speech, it has become clear that we must reconsider the fundamental relationship between words' sounds and their meanings. In this episode, we talk to two of the editors of the Special Issue on Iconicity and Sound Symbolism, Aleksandra Ćwiek and Susanne Fuchs (Leibniz-Centre General Linguistics), about research in the issue that examined these connections. Read all the articles from the special issue here!Read more from The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America (JASA).Learn more about Acoustical Society of America Publications.Music Credit: Min 2019 by minwbu from Pixabay.

Make sure to listen to this special message as Hank Hanegraaff reflects on the fiscal year's end, he underscores Christian unity and global missions while warning of The Church of Almighty God (Eastern Lightning), which claims a Chinese woman is the reincarnated Christ and fulfillment of Jesus's Olivet Discourse. Doctrinally deviant and sociologically subversive, this group masquerades as a persecuted Christian movement to advance dangerous dogmas. In CRI's special issue of the Christian Research Journal, believers are equipped to recognize and confront such cults. Hank shows how your prayers, partnership, and generosity make an eternal difference in fulfilling the Great Commission. Donate Now to Receive this Special Issue of the Christian Research Journal!

This week is the General Practice issue of the MJA. One of the authors featured is Dr Michael Wright, the President of Royal Australian College of General Practitioners. He is a co-author on the paper "The impact of patient enrolment in primary care on continuity and quality of care around the world, 2014–2024, and lessons for Australia: a scoping review."

In 2010, the Association for Information Systems formed a special interest group () to nurture an international community of academics that study the role of digital technologies in fostering environmentally, economically and socially sustainable development. Fifteen years later, we sit down with , the current SIGGreen president, to reflect on the progress we have made. What do we know about how digital technologies help greening our planet? What efforts in empirical, theoretical, and design work is still needed? Is our role to understand the role of digital technologies or do we need to push and enact change ourselves? We conclude that environmental questions and problems are now firmly on the radar screen of our discipline but more work needs to be done for information systems academics to transform the way we think about and use digital technologies.  Episode reading list Corbett, J., & Mellouli, S.
