SUMMARY:Reconnect Workshop 2023: Risk Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Where: The Omni Hotel\, Providence\, Rhode Island   \nThis year’s workshop is focused on Risk Assessment. Risk assessment is an overall process of identifying\, analyzing\, and preparing for potential risks (e.g.\, natural or man-made disasters)\, which is extremely important to ensure the continuity of organization operations and the well-being of the people involved. Risk assessment goals include (a) a better understanding of the vulnerability and the potential impact on the organization and people involved\, and (b) prescribing control measures and contingency plans to minimize the potential impacts. Reconnect 2023 will review classic methods and tools for risk assessment for various risks and hazards through real-world case studies. Several researchers affiliated with the newly established DHS Center of Excellence\, SENTRY\, will provide an overview of SENTRY’s research mission and offer examples of how they will use risk assessment methods in the center’s research. These include allocating resources for disaster management facing adaptive adversaries\, deploying “virtual sentries” to protect civilian spaces—so-called “soft targets”—around the country\, and several others. Registration fees\, lodging\, meals\, and travel: Accepted participants from US academic institutions: registration\, lodging in a single room\, and meals will be provided at no charge. Limited funds may be available to provide partial support for travel.   \nThe application deadline is March 15\, 2023\, or until all slots are filled. Click here to apply. \nOrganizers: Margaret (Midge) Cozzens\, DIMACS\, Rutgers University; Tamra Carpenter\, Rutgers University Jun Zhuang\, University at Buffalo Primary Speakers: Jun Zhuang\, University at Buffalo; Allison Coffey Reilly\, University of Maryland\, Seth Guikema\, University of Michigan; and Auroop Ganguly\, Northeastern University

SUMMARY:Race or Racism? The Black-White Disparity in Preterm Birth
DESCRIPTION:We would like to invite you to attend the PROTECT (Puerto Rico Testsite for Exploring Contamination Threats) Spring 2021 Webinar\, “Race or Racism?  The Black-White Disparity in Preterm Birth.” \nDr. Paula Braveman\, Professor of Family and Community Medicine and Founding Director of the Center for Health at the University of California\, San Francisco will talk about racism as leading to health-harming experiences and exposures that should be considered possible contributors to racial disparities in preterm birth rates.  To learn more about Dr. Braveman and her work\, and for a description of the upcoming webinar\, please visit the PROTECT website. \nThis webinar will be presented via Zoom Online Meetings and if you are able to join us\, please register at the following link – REGISTER. \nIf you have any questions about the webinar or experience any issues with registration\, please contact Kristin Hicks directly at k.hicks@northeastern.edu\, or 617-373-5384.
