    BRAIN RESEARCH NEW ZEALAND ANNUAL REPORT 2018 The Partnership Issue 2018 ANNUAL REPORT BRAIN RESEARCH NZ Dedicated to the memory of Nigel Peter Birch Brain Research New Zealand – Rangahou Roro Aotearoa records the passing of a very dear friend and colleague, Associate Professor Nigel Birch, who was a Principal Investigator within the Centre. Nigel passed away on 23 August 2018 after battling pancreatic cancer. Nigel was greatly admired as an outstanding biochemist and neuroscientist and as a warm, friendly, humble person with very high integrity and values. He loved his work and to many he was a role model for an academic: a passionate, admired teacher who respected and supported his students; a dedicated, thoughtful and successful scientist who brought the best out of those around him; and a committed, collegial member of the university community. Nigel was a key member of BRNZ who was highly regarded as an outstanding neuroscientist and whose friendly and insightful advice was greatly sought after. He was a major player in the design and delivery of the fundamental science research agenda within BRNZ. He made a very positive contribution to all of its activities, whether it be in unselfishly mentoring younger scientists, working with our outreach programme, or contributing to the research programme of the Centre. He epitomised the ethos of a national centre we were trying to build, with his intellect and his collegial, collaborative, inclusive approach and unstinting willingness to always support the work of the centre and its people. Nigel will be remembered by us all for his vital contribution, humility and collegiality and his ability as an outstanding researcher ..

  • A Place to Stand to Full Size the Black Community of Oak Bluffs
    A Place to Stand to Full Size The Black Community of Oak Bluffs Sociology/Anthropology Senior Thesis Swarthmore College April 28, 2017 Charles C. Davis Abstract "A Place to Stand to Full Size: The Black Community of Oak Bluffs" relies on multiple sources and uses a mixed approach to study the evolution of this century-old summer community on the island of Martha's Vineyard. Using scholarship that focuses on the black middle class, census and property tax data, mainstream histories, newspaper accounts, published memoirs and oral histories, the study tracks the growth of the black Oak Bluffs community from its nineteenth century origins to the present day. With the work of Karyn R. Lacy and Elijah Anderson providing the guiding insights for the analysis, the thesis uses the author's sixty years of personal history in the community to explore key issues facing the black middle class and its more affluent contemporaries, as these groups navigate the troubled intersection of race and class in America. The work uses auto-ethnography to examine the issues of assimilation, upward mobility, and racial authenticity in the latter half of the twentieth century, as well as more contemporary concerns such as property ownership status, and asset retention. The study concludes with an analysis of black Oak Bluffs as a cultural symbol: an iconic counterweight to the mainstream racial stereotypes that still define and restrict African Americans today.

  • Sherith Israel Newsseptember–December, 2017
    SHERITH ISRAEL NEWSSEPTEMBER–DECEMBER, 2017 New approaches enrich timeless traditions HIGH HOLIDAYS OFFER EXPANDED SPIRITUAL OPPORTUNITIES Building on last year, Sherith Israel’s High Holiday services will offer an even greater breadth and depth of meaning. According to Rabbi Jessica Graf, “Congregants told us how much their High Holiday experience meant to them last year. As much as we appreciate that, Cantor Frommer and I have been working hard to raise the experiential level of the upcom- ing High Holidays to an even higher plane.” While Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur constitute the centerpieces of High Holidays 5778, Rabbi Graf points out that the holiday season includes more than a month of preparation and celebration. The season begins in the month of Elul (starting August 23). It continues through Sukkot, five days after Yom Kippur, celebrating the autumn harvest, and on to Simchat Torah (October 13), marking completion and renewal of the annual Torah- reading cycle. Cantor David Frommer notes that CSI’s High Holiday activities offer a full month of celebration and contemplation. We begin on Wednesday, September 6, two weeks before Rosh Hashanah, with a study session on Mishkan HaNefesh, the new Reform machzor (prayerbook) led by Rabbi Graf and Cantor Frommer. Congregants will gain familiarity High Holidays continues, page 4 SHANAH TOVAH: Best wishes for a healthy, happy new year. See page 5 for your complete guide to High Holiday services and events.

The organization, renamed the “American Medical Association,” is officially founded in 1847 at a national convention in Philadelphia, where its constitution, by-laws and code of ethics are approved. 1847 Rush Medical School of Chicago, IL awards an MD to David Jones Peck; first African American to receive a medical degree from a US medical school. 1848 First annual meeting of the American Medical Association. 1849 John Van Surly DeGrasse graduates medical school at Bowdoin College (Maine); first African American medical officer in the US Army during the Civil War. 1850 Daniel Laing, Jr., Martin Delany, Isaac H.
