  • Cultural Anthropology Through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-Based Sentiment
    Cultural Anthropology through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-based Sentiment Peter A. Gloor, Joao Marcos, Patrick M. de Boer, Hauke Fuehres, Wei Lo, Keiichi Nemoto [email protected] MIT Center for Collective Intelligence Abstract In this paper we study the differences in historical World View between Western and Eastern cultures, represented through the English, the Chinese, Japanese, and German Wikipedia. In particular, we analyze the historical networks of the World’s leaders since the beginning of written history, comparing them in the different Wikipedias and assessing cultural chauvinism. We also identify the most influential female leaders of all times in the English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese Wikipedia. As an additional lens into the soul of a culture we compare top terms, sentiment, emotionality, and complexity of the English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German Wikinews. 1 Introduction Over the last ten years the Web has become a mirror of the real world (Gloor et al. 2009). More recently, the Web has also begun to influence the real world: Societal events such as the Arab spring and the Chilean student unrest have drawn a large part of their impetus from the Internet and online social networks. In the meantime, Wikipedia has become one of the top ten Web sites1, occasionally beating daily newspapers in the actuality of most recent news. Be it the resignation of German national soccer team captain Philipp Lahm, or the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 in the Ukraine by a guided missile, the corresponding Wikipedia page is updated as soon as the actual event happened (Becker 2012.

Pitts Medicines Former FDA Associate Commissioner President, Center By:for MedicinePeter J. Pitts in the Public Interest Former FDA Associate Commissioner President, Center for JulyMedicine 2020 in the Public Interest OctoberJuly 2020 2020 Introduction Just as the coronavirus mutates to survive and thrive, so to do the purveyors of counterfeit medicines – with their high-speed “host” being the digitization of patient care. The future is now. So, how do we balance moving forward with user-friendly digitization, telemedicine and virtual healthcare delivery while simultaneously recognizing the unintended consequences of the innovative criminal mind? The first step is to recognize there’s a problem. Counterfeit Medicines: A Moveable Feast Once upon a time, at the beginning of the new millennium, counterfeit medicines in the United States were largely “lifestyle” products such as erectile dysfunction drugs – Viagra being the poster child of the problem.i Other categories of fake pills included treatments for depression.ii The common denominator was patient shame and embarrassment. Ordering from seemingly benign (i.e., “from Canada”) websites seemed like a safe and anonymous way to address their conditions without having to visit either a physician, mental health professional or pharmacist. A second category of counterfeit prey were people seeking higher risk drugs (opioids, steroids, etc.) to facilitate a more dangerous lifestyle. The rationale for this second group was easier access to more dangerous (often controlled) substances.iii To respond to this emerging threat, the FDA formed a Counterfeit Drug Task Force in July 2003.iv As a former FDA Associate Commissioner, I was proud to serve as a member of that task force.

The denial of over-the-counter (“OTC”) status, though newsworthy itself, drew particular attention because of the unusual nature of the decision.

  • The Pioneering Efforts of Wise Women in Medicine and The
    THE PIONEERING EFFORTS OF WISE WOMEN IN MEDICINE AND THE MEDICAL SCIENCES EDITORS Gerald Friedland MD, FRCPE, FRCR Jennifer Tender, MD Leah Dickstein, MD Linda Shortliffe, MD 1 PREFACE A boy and his father are in a terrible car crash. The father is killed and the child suffers head trauma and is taken to the local emergency room for a neurosurgical procedure. The attending neurosurgeon walks into the emergency room and states “I cannot perform the surgery. This is my son.” Who is the neurosurgeon? Forty years ago, this riddle stumped elementary school students, but now children are perplexed by its simplicity and quickly respond “the doctor is his mother.” Although this new generation may not make presumptions about the gender of a physician or consider a woman neurosurgeon to be an anomaly, medicine still needs to undergo major changes before it can be truly egalitarian. When Dr. Gerald Friedland’s wife and daughter became physicians, he became more sensitive to the discrimination faced by women in medicine. He approached Linda Shortliffe, MD (Professor of Urology, Stanford University School of Medicine) and asked whether she would be willing to hold the first reported conference to highlight Women in Medicine and the Sciences. She agreed. The conference was held in the Fairchild Auditorium at the Stanford University School of Medicine on March 10, 2000. In 2012 Leah Dickstein, MD contacted Gerald Friedland and informed him that she had a video of the conference. This video was transformed into the back-bone of this book. The chapters have been edited and updated and the lectures translated into written prose.

  • Selected Highlights of Women's History
    Selected Highlights of Women’s History United States & Connecticut 1773 to 2015 The Permanent Commission on the Status of Women omen have made many contributions, large and Wsmall, to the history of our state and our nation. Although their accomplishments are too often left un- recorded, women deserve to take their rightful place in the annals of achievement in politics, science and inven- Our tion, medicine, the armed forces, the arts, athletics, and h philanthropy. 40t While this is by no means a complete history, this book attempts to remedy the obscurity to which too many Year women have been relegated. It presents highlights of Connecticut women’s achievements since 1773, and in- cludes entries from notable moments in women’s history nationally. With this edition, as the PCSW celebrates the 40th anniversary of its founding in 1973, we invite you to explore the many ways women have shaped, and continue to shape, our state. Edited and designed by Christine Palm, Communications Director This project was originally created under the direction of Barbara Potopowitz with assistance from Christa Allard. It was updated on the following dates by PCSW’s interns: January, 2003 by Melissa Griswold, Salem College February, 2004 by Nicole Graf, University of Connecticut February, 2005 by Sarah Hoyle, Trinity College November, 2005 by Elizabeth Silverio, St. Joseph’s College July, 2006 by Allison Bloom, Vassar College August, 2007 by Michelle Hodge, Smith College January, 2013 by Andrea Sanders, University of Connecticut Information contained in this book was culled from many sources, including (but not limited to): The Connecticut Women’s Hall of Fame, the U.S.

  • Dr. Florence P. Haseltine, Ph.D., M.D. Activities of the Foundation While Bringing Recognition to a Worthy Woman in Medicine
    The Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine The 14th Annual The Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine, established in 1998, was founded on the belief that knowing the historical past is a powerful force in shaping Alma Dea Morani, M.D. the future. Though relatively young, The Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine has made significant accomplishments in promoting the history of Renaissance Woman Award women in medicine. The Alma Dea Morani Award continues to provide an annual centerpiece to the Dr. Florence P. Haseltine, Ph.D., M.D. activities of The Foundation while bringing recognition to a worthy woman in medicine. This year we honor Florence P. Haseltine, Ph.D., M.D., Emerita Director, Center for Population Research at the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute for Public Health (NICHD) of the National Institutes of Health. The Foundation’s Research Fellowships, offered in conjunction with the The Archives for Women in Medicine (AWM) at Countway Library’s Center for the History of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, continue to be competitive. The 2013 recipient, Dr. Ciara Breathnach, lectures in history and has published on Irish socio-economic and health histories in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Her research focuses on how the poor experienced, engaged with and negotiated medical services in Ireland and in North America from 1860-1912. Dr. Breathnach’s focused study of record of the migratory waves against trends in medical and social modernity processes, are held at the Archives for Women in Medicine at the Countway Library and will be weighed against other socio-economic evidence to establish how problematic groups such as the Irish poor affected and shaped medical care in Boston.

  • Mcgoogan Health Sciences Library
    McGoogan Health Sciences Library Fiscal Year 2019 / 2020 This past year was one of the strangest of my career, with the library closing while staff relocated to temporary space in Eppley Science Hall, followed by moving to remote work because of COVID-19. Despite these challenges, we had another successful year of accomplishments, welcoming new faculty and staff and maintaining seamless service during this time. I frequently comment on the value libraries bring to their campuses. I describe how our services and programs meet the university’s mission. This year, I want to focus on how the faculty and staff of the McGoogan Health Sciences Library create that value for UNMC, Nebraska Medicine, and our community partners. • Negotiating, licensing, and maintaining seamless access • Managing a platform for hosting UNMC-produced content, to the thousands of e-journals, ebooks, and databases you including a journal from the Graduate Medical Education office rely on every day • Working with users on 3D printing • Checking out our remaining print collections and anatomical • Providing Nebraska residents with consumer health information models. Our models are heavily used by several of our academic programs • Assisting academic departments, institutes, and centers in understanding the publication efforts of their faculty • Delivering articles, usually within 24 hours, for things the library does not own • Advocating for students by creating the best library for studying, reflection, and collaboration • Partnering with faculty on systematic reviews
