SUMMARY:UNT Transdisciplinary Conference on Ancestral Genomics
DESCRIPTION:A Conference that Moves us Beyond Race to Embrace Ancestral GenomicsApril 17 & 18\, at the University of North Texas  \nThis inaugural two-day Conference will launch an annual 5 year series\, bringing together leaders in the fields of ancestral genomics\, evolutionary history\, nutrition and other relevant fields as they relate to underrepresented populations.   \nThe April 2020 meeting will focus on testing new theoretical models developed to lend insights into “paradoxes” in the medical literature relating to six disease susceptibilities in African-Americans of slave descent.  Future meetings will use these innovative methodologies to tackle the role of ancestral genomics and disease susceptibilities in global populations as well as underrepresented demographic groups in the U.S.\, which include Latinos/Hispanics and Native Americans.   \nThe upcoming forum will also bring together specialists from the National Institutes of Health\, the National Science Foundation\,  National Library of Medicine\, the Cooperative Human Tissue Network\, the Food and  Nutrition Board\, Precision Medicine and the National Center for Biotechnology Information to educate our research community on industry standards for ancestral genomic approaches.   \nA call for abstracts has been issued. Abstracts must by submitted by Jan. 15\, 2020.

SUMMARY:When the newsroom becomes your living room: Reporting in the age of COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:As the novel Coronavirus continues to spread in the United States\, many media organizations have taken extreme measures to create social distance with reporters and managers and other staff and this has meant that most of these journalists are now working from home. \nFor reporters\, working from home could be a drastic change at a time of extreme pressure and anxiety.  For managers used to leading in a full newsroom transitioning to digital accountability and producing measures might be intimidating. But we have some words of comfort: Do not panic. You are not alone. Freelance journalists and solo correspondents work under similar conditions every day. They work from home\, adapt to changes\, assignments and situations. They also beef up on new digital skills and create workflows that allow them to break stories and make news. \nNow is the time to look at how they do it. They have the best advice on how to cope\, get organized and do your job effectively whether you are sitting in your living room or patio or outside in front of a business. This webinar will provide NAHJ members the tools they need to excel at a difficult time when journalists are expected to produce daily stories covering COVID-19 or any local story that must be covered every day. \nFormat and Program Draft\n\n\nComfort: creating a productive working space \n\n\nCreating and managing a workflow \n\n\nIntro to digital news-gathering tools \n\n\nCommunication is still key: Slack channels and Zoom meetings \n\n\nBuilding sources \n\n\nFrom cybersecurity to self-care \n\n\nKey Objectives\n\n\nHelp journalists working from home for the first time. \n\n\nProvide NAHJ members with useful tools used by freelancers so they can perform well and produce remotely without feeling isolated and/or without resources. \n\n\nBuild strategies to self-care and stay connected to the outside world without becoming overwhelmed. \n\n\nRegister here:\nFirst Session – April 17 at 7:00pm EST \nSecond Session – April 24 at 7:00pm EST \nSpeakers:Romina Ruiz and Mc Nelly Torres

To answer this call\, a group of dedicated instructors in the University of California\, Davis\, College of Biological Science has designed a virtual lab course. This unique course provides students with a truly interdisciplinary perspective on how modern biology through a diverse number of approaches can inform our decisions in this crises and help plan for future interventions to lessen the impact of viral epidemics. One of the activities in this course are a series of Town Halls\, where subject area experts chat with students and course instructors about issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. At these Town Hall meetings\, physicians\, scientists\, lawyers\, a journalist & an economist discuss scientific\, health care\, and broader societal issues concerning the COVID19 pandemic.
