Wir springen in dieser Folge ins Frankreich des späten 18. und frühen 19. Jahrhunderts. Während die Revolution durchs Land fegt, wächst ein Mädchen heran, das – trotz aller gesellschaftlicher Widerstände gegen Frauen in den Wissenschaften – zu einer der bedeutendsten Mathematikerinnen ihrer Zeit werden wird. Wir sprechen über Sophie Germain, die sich nicht nur in der Zahlentheorie, sondern auch der Mathematischen Physik einen Namen machte – und trotzdem zu Lebzeiten nie die Anerkennung erhielt, die sie verdient hätte. //Erwähnte Folgen - GAG361: Gustave Trouvé - der vergessene Erfinder – https://gadg.fm/361 - GAG408: Das kurze und tragische Leben des Évariste Galois – https://gadg.fm/408 - GAG375: Sofia Kowalewskaja, "Königin der Wissenschaft" – https://gadg.fm/375 Literatur - Dora Musielak.

Glyphosate is an herbicide that’s widely used in agriculture in the U.S. and around the world. It’s the active ingredient in Roundup, which is commonly applied to crops like soy, cotton and corn that have been genetically modified to withstand the weed killer. The Environmental Protection Agency maintains that glyphosate is “not likely to be carcinogenic to humans,” although a ruling in 2022 by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has prompted the agency to review the chemical’s risks to human health and the environment.  A new study by economists at the University of Oregon examined how glyphosate may also be impacting the health of infants. It looked at millions of birth records from 1990 to 2013 to see if there were differences in birth weight and gestational length after Roundup use intensified in rural counties that grew genetically modified corn, soy and cotton compared to rural counties that weren’t suitable for growing those GM crops. It found that exposure to glyphosate was associated with lower birth weights and shorter gestations, with those effects being greater for some babies more than others. Joining us to talk about the findings is Ed Rubin, an assistant professor of economics at the University of Oregon.

At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) Colin, a native of Portland, is a testament to mindfulness, setting audacious goals and achieving them despite overwhelming odds. Last year, Colin set two world records: He became the fastest person ever to complete both the Seven Summits (climbing the highest peak on every continent) and the Explorers Grand Slam (the Seven Summits + skiing to the last degree of the North and South Poles). He completed the challenges in 131 and 139 days, respectively. His nonprofit, Beyond 7/2, strives to inspire kids to lead active, healthy lives and pursue their biggest dreams. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/getu-chandler/support

A team of researchers at the University of Oregon is currently studying the relationships between soccer cleat composition and risk of injury in female versus male athletes. Female soccer players are three times more likely to suffer from major knee injuries than male soccer players, and a recent English study found that ACL injuries are 2-6 times more likely in females than males. This group of students and faculty at UO have been running tests for the past five years testing cleat stud length, traction and stability. They have created a model for a new type of cleat designed specifically for the female foot anatomy, which is in the beginning stages of development. We'll hear more from Emily Karolidis, a PhD candidate and lead researcher in this study, and Mike Hahn, professor of human physiology at UO.

About 75 years ago, Jackson Pollock revolutionized the art world with his distinctive style of painting. He would lay the canvas on the floor and with his arms outstretched, pour or drip cans of paint directly onto its surface. The technique invited admirers and detractors alike, along with scandals involving forged canvases turning up decades after his death.  Richard Taylor, a professor of physics, psychology, and art at University of Oregon has been using computers for more than 25 years to analyze Pollock’s paintings and help authenticate canvases of uncertain origin. He recently collaborated with two former UO doctoral students to develop a tool using AI to distinguish between genuine and imitation Pollock paintings with 99% accuracy. Taylor joins us to talk about the recently published results, and the role AI may increasingly play in the art world.

On Monday, students at the University of Oregon began setting up tents on the Eugene campus to protest the conflict in Gaza. They joined students at scores of other universities across the nation, including at Portland State University, where students set up camps, barricades and broke into Branford Price Millar Library. Student organizers of the protest on the UO campus are calling on the administration to divest from companies that have financial ties to the Israeli military. In a statement, the University of Oregon said it is “actively monitoring this situation to ensure the safety and wellbeing of students, faculty, and staff on campus.” KLCC reporter Nathan Wilk joins us to talk about the situation unfolding at the university.

Public health agencies are playing an increasingly important role in alerting residents to the risks of wildfire smoke as climate change increases the frequency and intensity of wildfires in the West. But that messaging can lack important information about the severity of that risk and specific actions that can be taken to mitigate it, according to a new study from the University of Oregon.  The study examined nearly 1,300 messages about wildfire smoke exposure that were sent in 2022 by federal, state and county health agencies in Oregon and Washington using the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. While slightly more than half the tweets were sent during September and October when wildfire smoke peaked, less than a fifth of them contained useful air quality descriptions or steps residents could take to mitigate exposure to it, such as using an air purifier at home or wearing a mask outdoors to filter out ash and smoke particles.  Joining us to discuss the findings, and the opportunities they reveal to better communicate wildfire smoke health risks  is Cathy Slavik, the lead author of the study and a research associate at the Center for Science Communication Research at the University of Oregon.

Certain foods are often marketed in ways that reinforce gender stereotypes. Think, for example, of the deep, masculine voice who proclaims “We have the meats!” as the tagline from a popular fast food chain, or advertisements aimed at women that tout the low-calorie appeal of a brand of yogurt. A new study from researchers at University of Oregon suggests that these gender stereotypes around food can also influence kids and the kinds of foods they choose to eat. Nichole Kelly is the Evergreen associate professor in counseling psychology and human services at University of Oregon, and one of the study’s authors. She joins us to talk about the findings and how placing value judgments on certain foods may affect future eating behaviors.

Research shows that up to 50% of the human brain is involved in visual processing. For octopuses, that number is roughly 70%. There are similarities between octopus and human eyes – both involve a lens and a pupil that allows light into the back of the eye – but the way our brains process vision is completely different. University of Oregon biology professor Cris Niell has been studying these processes in his lab. The team recently published a paper in Current Biology on the ways octopuses organize visual information in their brains. He joins us to offer some insight into how octopuses see.

Mark Twain once said, “Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough.” Today's guest knows a little something about whiskey. Alex Chasko is the Master Distiller and Blender and was employee number one at Teeling Whiskey, which was built in 2012 and was the first new distillery in Dublin for over 125 years. However, Alex didn't start there. His passion for brewing can be seen as early as sophomore year when he started making beer with at-home brew kits and spent his summers at Bridgeport Brewing Company. Through working at Bridgeport, Alex learned how biology and chemistry were applied to the elements of brewing. After graduating from the University of Oregon, Alex worked at Pyramid Brewing Company in Seattle until he realized he wanted to get into whiskey and distilling. When it comes to whiskey, Edinburgh, Scotland, is the only place to go. So, Alex saved up his pennies, sold his truck, and enrolled in Heriot-Watt University in their Masters of Brewing and Distilling program, where he felt like he belonged. After a brief stint in Singapore to open a brew pub and rediscover where he was born, Alex moved back to Ireland in 2008 to bring new ideas to whiskey. For 20 years, Teeling had struggled to compete against large distilleries such as Jameson but thanks to Alex's dedication to bringing new and innovative flavors to whiskey, Teeling is now the World's Most Awarded Irish Whiskey. Teeling continues to raise the bar and boasts over 200 International Whiskey Awards.

Season 7, Episode 161 College Spotlight: University of Oregon Which college has a combined Men's and Women's 20 NCAA Championships in track and field? University of Oregon does. I remember being on campus in the summer of 2016 – U of Oregon was hosting the Track and Field Olympic Trials. With eighteen varsity teams, the Oregon Ducks are best known for their football team and track and field program. This fact becomes both more interesting and more logical when you learn that UO has a very special relationship with a little company known as NIKE. It was a UO that little idea for a company was born at U of Oregon.

This week's episode of Scrambling with Dylan Otto features University of Oregon golfer Owen Avrit. From a young boy at The First Tee to playing as the #1 golfer for the University of Oregon... Owen Avrit has come a long ways. Growing up in the Central Coast area of California, Owen picked up the game at a very young age with the help of his parents and brother. Playing in any junior tournament they could play in which ranged from Ventura Junior Golf Events, Future Champions, and JTNCs. With the help of his brother and resume he developed from high school golf/junior golf, Avrit was able to secure a scholarship to go play at Long Beach State University. After a year of outstanding play and COVID canceling the season, he wanted a personal change of scenery. It only took him 3 days to land his dream school and that was the University of Oregon! Since then he's been one of the main contributors to the team and looks forward to giving it his all for his fellow Ducks. Beyond college golf, Owen is determined to become the best player in the world on the PGA Tour and is preparing himself now for that moment. Enjoy the show!

Some states have placed limits on topics that can be taught in schools. Some have tried to ban the practice of tenure, which gives professors job security. Some universities have bowed to pressure from students or outside influences to censure or fire teachers. These attacks on academic freedom may not be new, but they feel particularly acute right now. This week, the University of Oregon is hosting a conference on the present and future of academic freedom. Michael Dreiling, professor of sociology at the University of Oregon, and Lori Latrice Martin, professor in the Department of African and African American Studies at Louisiana State University, are both speaking at the conference. They join us to explain what's at stake.
