SUMMARY:Jenny Reardon\, "The Postgenomic Condition: Meaning and Justice After the Genome"
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nJenny Reardon’s research draws into focus questions about identity\, justice and democracy that are often silently embedded in scientific ideas and practices\, particularly in modern genomic research. Her training spans molecular biology\, the history of biology\, science studies\, feminist and critical race studies\, and the sociology of science\, technology and medicine. \nDr. Reardon is a Professor of Sociology and the Founding Director of the Science and Justice Research Center at the UC Santa Cruz. \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. The sessions consist of a 40-45 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center provides coffee\, tea\, and cookies. \nAll Center for Cultural Studies events are free and open to the public. Staff assistance is provided by the Institute for Humanities Research.

SUMMARY:Living Writers Series: James Janko & Ellen Greenblatt
DESCRIPTION:James Janko refused to carry a weapon while serving in Viet Nam as a medic in an infantry battalion commanded by Colonel George Armstrong Custer III in 1970. His medals include the Bronze Star for Valor\, which he returned to the U.S. government in 1986 to protest their involvement in wars in Central America. In 2008\, Janko gave away other medals to Vietnamese victims of Agent Orange: Mrs. Dang Hong Nhut\, who suffers from thyroid cancer and has had numerous miscarriages\, and Ms. Tran Thi Hoan\, who was born without legs due to her mother’s exposure to Agent Orange. Janko’s novel\, The Clubhouse Thief\, won the AWP (Association of Writers and Writing Programs) Award for the Novel and is forthcoming from New Issues Poetry and Prose (Western Michigan University) in January of 2018. An earlier novel\, Buffalo Boy and Geronimo (Curbstone Press)\, received wide critical acclaim and two awards: The Association of Asian American Studies Prose Award and the Northern California Book Award for Fiction. Janko’s short stories have appeared in The Massachusetts Review. \nEllen Greenblatt’s work as an educator has often focused on teaching literature in the context of social and historical issues. She met and became friends with James Janko when he appeared several times as a guest in her course about the American War in Vietnam\, a course which included the voices of American\, Vietnamese\, and Vietnamese-American speakers and authors. As a result of that course\, Ellen became part of the Veterans Writing Group started by Maxine Hong Kingston. \nEllen’s writing work includes creating educational materials for television documentaries and for teachers of literature\, and she has developed a literature-based approach to teaching about conflict and its aftermaths. Ellen has worked with teachers throughout the US and internationally\, and she has been an on-stage interviewer for City Arts and Lectures in San Francisco\, conducting literary interviews before a live audience.

SUMMARY:PhD+: Proposal Writing - Framing Your Research for Fellowship and Grant Proposals
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nThis workshop is devoted to developing a fellowship and grant strategy that will assist you in making your research proposals competitive to a wide range of selection committees. We’ll discuss how the jargon of field-specific descriptions can affect both the clarity and persuasiveness of funding proposals\, and focus instead on teasing out the larger humanistic stakes of individual research projects. Please upload an abstract of your own by Friday\, November 24 to the shared Google Drive folder at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YR76sm_j34z5-0i3NOIsAVgLNHgMhTMP\, and bring a hardcopy with you to the workshop. A portion of our conversation will be devoted to revising current and/or future research proposals in order to appeal to scholars from a variety of humanistic departments and programs. \nPhD+ Workshop Series\nPlease join us for the third year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by the Institute for Humanities Research. We will meet monthly\, over lunch\, to discuss: possible career paths for PhDs\, internship possibilities\, grants/fellowships\, work/life balance\, elements of style\, and much more. \nLunch provided to all attendees. \nPlease RSVP below: \n  \nLoading…
