SUMMARY:Presidential Leadership and Disability
DESCRIPTION:The age of presidential candidates has become a salient concern\, but age is not the only physical factor that should concern citizens. Presidents can also suffer various forms of illness\, both physical and psychological. This talk highlights the nature of these concerns and how we might work to mitigate their impact on political outcomes. \nFree registration is open now: https://uci.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_m5HtweYgSh6t9sGnAa_hOQ#/registration \nFor more details\, please visit: https://sites.uci.edu/centerforneuropolitics/

SUMMARY:Darren Schreiber\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Join the UCI Center for Neuropolitics for their lecture with Darren Schreiber\, PhD\, JD\, Senior Lecturer in Politics at the University of Exeterin. \nGuess Who’s Coming to Dinner in 2024? How Partisan Identity Politics is Taking Over America \nThe past twenty years have demonstrated the role of biology in our political predispositions\, with evidence from twin studies\, genetics\, and brain imaging. Recent trends have highlighted political polarization on an emotional\, identity-driven level where the other side is seens as a hated enemy. The consequences have ranged from increasing dissatisfaction with democracy to a rise in violent extremism.

SUMMARY:2024 Second Annual Symposium for the Center for Neurotherapeutics
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of the Symposium will be to familiarize attendees with the UCI Center for\nNeurotherapeutics and introduce attendees to the exciting translational\nneuroscience research happening right on our campus and in labs across the country. We\nhope that attendees will: \n\nLearn about the vision that drives us at the UCI Center for Neurotherapeutics and our\nongoing effort to advance drug development on campus.\nBecome acquainted with cutting-edge approaches being applied to develop innovative\nmodels and novel therapeutic solutions for neurological diseases. Lecture topics will\ninclude drug discovery and high-throughput screening methods to identify rational\ndrug targets. Experts from diverse disciplines will explain how they are tackling the\nchallenge of delivering small molecules and biological agents across the blood-brain\nbarrier.\nAppreciate the many opportunities for cross-disciplinary interaction and collaboration\nin this field. Our number one core value at the UCI Center for Neurotherapeutics is to\npromote collaboration across campus\, especially between faculty in the physical\nsciences and the biological sciences. We believe that only by combining such multi-\ndisciplinary expertise and diverse perspectives will it be possible to unlock new\navenues of discovery and accelerate progress toward developing meaningful solutions\nfor therapy development.\n\nOur exceptional line-up of guest speakers and UCI faculty speakers include: \n\nAnabella Villalobos (Biogen); Neurological/Rare Disease Therapies\nDonna Huryn (University of Pennsylvania); Academic Drug Discovery Challenges\nEthan Lippmann (Vanderbilt); siRNA Brain Delivery via Albumin\nSu Guo (UC San Francisco); GPCR Targeting in Parkinson’s\nHang Lu (Georgia Tech); Microtechnology & AI in Drug Screening\n Errol Arkilic (UC Irvine); Beall Applied Innovation\nLeslie Thompson (UC Irvine); Huntington’s Disease Treatment Advances\nJennifer Prescher (UC Irvine); Nature-Inspired Imaging Tools\nChristopher Hughes (UC Irvine); Blood-Brain Barrier Neurovascular Model\nMelanie Cocco (UC Irvine); Voxelotor for Red Blood Cell Modulation\n\nWhether you are a student\, postdoctoral trainee\, faculty member\, or staff member\, we\nencourage you to join us\, so please mark your calendars! \nRegistration is free! \nPlease register by Friday\, September 27\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Lisa Feldman Barrett\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:The McGaugh-Gerard Lecture on Learning and Memory will host guest speaker Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett\, University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University. \nThree Lessons About the Brain \n  \nEver wonder how your brain really works? Join us for the 3rd Annual McGaugh-Gerard Lecture on Learning and Memory by Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett\, an author and expert in psychology and neuroscience\, as she breaks down three key ideas about the brain’s inner workings. In this talk\, you’ll learn: \n\nHow your brain’s most important job is keeping your body running smoothly.\nHow your brain is constantly predicting what will happen next rather than reacting to the world.\nHow feeling and thinking and even seeing follow from your brain’s plan for action; your brain prepares your behavior first and creates your lived experience in the process.\n\nDr. Barrett will show how these brain functions affect how you feel\, how you think\, and what you do.
