  • MDMA Conference Program Book
    1 2 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Public Health Service National Institutes of Health National Institute on Drug Abuse Bethesda, Maryland 20892 July 19, 2001 Dear Colleagues: On behalf of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), I am pleased to welcome you to MDMA/Ecstasy Research: Advances, Challenges, Future Directions. A number of our best monitoring mechanisms are detecting alarming increases in the popularity of MDMA, particularly among today's youth. Unfortunately, myths abound about both the acute effects and long-term consequences of this drug. In response, we have convened a national and international cadre of experts to examine the latest scientific findings on MDMA and to identify areas requiring additional research. Specifically, this meeting will address patterns and trends of MDMA abuse, acute effects, long-term toxicity, and funtional consequences. In addition to the plenary presentations conducted by some of the world's leading scientists, we have invited and equally impressive number of investigators to display poster presentations of their current research on MDMA. Please take some time during the meeting to visit the research poster gallery on display in the conference center and discuss these ongoing studies with the researchers. Drug abuse research should not only be useful, it should be used. I hope that this conference provides researchers, practitioners, and policy makers with the scientific information needed to mount a comprehensive response to the individual and public health impact of MDMA abuse. Sincerely, Alan I. Leshner, Ph.D. Director 4 C O N T E N T S Agenda ................................................................................................................................................... 9 Speaker Abstracts and Biographies ......................................................................................................... 17 Poster Abstracts ...................................................................................................................................

  • Transnational Finnish Mobilities: Proceedings of Finnforum XI
    Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen This volume is based on a selection of papers presented at Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) the conference FinnForum XI: Transnational Finnish Mobili- ties, held in Turku, Finland, in 2016. The twelve chapters dis- cuss two key issues of our time, mobility and transnational- ism, from the perspective of Finnish migration. The volume is divided into four sections. Part I, Mobile Pasts, Finland and Beyond, brings forth how Finland’s past – often imagined TRANSNATIONAL as more sedentary than today’s mobile world – was molded by various short and long-distance mobilities that occurred FINNISH MOBILITIES: both voluntarily and involuntarily. In Part II, Transnational Influences across the Atlantic, the focus is on sociocultural PROCEEDINGS OF transnationalism of Finnish migrants in the early 20th cen- tury United States. Taken together, Parts I and II show how FINNFORUM XI mobility and transnationalism are not unique features of our FINNISH MOBILITIES TRANSNATIONAL time, as scholars tend to portray them. Even before modern communication technologies and modes of transportation, migrants moved back and forth and nurtured transnational ties in various ways. Part III, Making of Contemporary Finn- ish America, examines how Finnishness is understood and maintained in North America today, focusing on the con- cepts of symbolic ethnicity and virtual villages. Part IV, Con- temporary Finnish Mobilities, centers on Finns’ present-day emigration patterns, repatriation experiences, and citizen- ship practices, illustrating how, globally speaking, Finns are privileged in their ability to be mobile and exercise transna- tionalism. Not only is the ability to move spread very uneven- ly, so is the capability to upkeep transnational connections, be they sociocultural, economic, political, or purely symbol- ic.

Thanks to your kindness, generosity and support, our 33rd year in service was a tremendous success. It is difficult to capture everything that transpired and the whirlwind of events that took place during our 2017 campaign. In reflecting back over the year, we were fortunate to experience many achievements, receive a number of accolades and create special moments and cherished memories. Camp Sunshine offered 22 programs and served 637 families (2,505 family members) from 46 states and 5 countries. We enhanced our outreach by visiting hospitals, clinics and fairs across the country and by partnering with Tropical Smoothie Café, placing information about Camp Sunshine in each of their cafes. The highlight was the unveiling of the Sunshine Smoothie & Sunshine Cup. We also expanded our transportation assistance program to families in need, thanks to the generosity of Hands on Tzedakah, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Noyes Brain Tumor Foundation, SEALs for Sunshine, Windham Automotive (Ron Eby), John & Ann Ewalt, Tropical Smoothie Café, and Texas Roadhouse. In fact, you may have even seen our branded van or bus on the road during your travels.
