SUMMARY:Summer 2024 CDLS Research and Outreach Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Diverse Leadership in Science at UCLA (CDLS) Research and Outreach Symposium offers an inclusive platform for individuals across all career stages within our community to showcase their research and outreach endeavors\, regardless of the project’s developmental stage. \nThe event will feature keynote speakers and lightning talks from fellows and members showcasing their research\, community-building efforts\, and outreach initiatives. Lunch will be served. Masking is optional although strongly recommended indoors. \nREGISTER HERE \nKeynote Speakers\nDr. Camille Gaynus: Diving into a Joyous Ocean with Black in Marine Science\nOriginally from Philadelphia\, I established a love of the water at an early age. Upon graduating from Hampton University\, I started a PhD in the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Department at UCLA. I spent some time working at Penn State Brandywine before moving to working for the nonprofit Black in Marine Science full-time as the Chief Science Officer. There are two things I enjoy about being a marine scientist. First is the sheer amount of knowledge the ocean holds. It gives me countless opportunities to learn and explore. Second\, I physically enjoy being underwater. There is something about being totally submerged in water that is calming. I got involved in #BlackinMarineScientist because I love being Black and I believe it is important that we highlight Black stories as a way to combat anti-Blackness. \nDr. Yewande Pearse: From Snails in the Garden to John Legend and Beyond: Navigating a Career in Science Communication\nAs a neuroscientist and passionate science communicator\, Yewande blends the art of storytelling with the rigor of scientific inquiry to curate culturally resonant narratives. Her work extends beyond mere communication; it is about creating spaces where science is a shared language\, enriching the tapestry of our collective experience. As a black woman in STEM and a mother\, she embodies the diversity she advocates for\, driving change from the intersection of her personal and professional worlds. She stands for a future where science belongs to everyone\, breaking down barriers to create inclusive and accessible platforms for discovery. Her mission is to empower individuals with the transformative power of scientific knowledge\, fostering a society that values curiosity\, understanding\, and the profound impact of science in every aspect of life. \nLOCATION \nUCLA Geology Building Room 3853\n595 Charles E.

SUMMARY:Food and Film: Eat Drink Man Woman
DESCRIPTION:The Hammer Museum is sharing another incredible installment of Alice Water’s Food and Film Series\, “Eat Drink Man Woman.” \nAdmission to the event is free. Seats are assigned at the theater on a first come\, first serve basis. \nFood and Film is a quarterly series designed to delight the senses and inspire the mind. Curated with renowned chef\, activist and cinephile Alice Waters\, who will introduce the screening\, each program in the series draws on Waters’ philosophy that eating\, like art\, is a political act and that exploring the intersections between the culinary and moving image arts can help illuminate the path toward building more sustainable\, thriving communities together. \nEAT DRINK MAN WOMAN (1994)\nWith his fourth feature\, co-written with Hui-Ling Wang and James Schamus\, Taiwanese director Ang Lee firmly cemented his status as a major auteur. The economy and feeling of his storytelling is evident from the opening sequence establishing the home of retired chef Chu (Hui Ling Wang) as an oasis from a bustling Taipei with his kitchen at its center. From it emanates the sights and sounds of the Sunday banquets he artfully prepares that draw his three adult daughters home. Through evocative detail\, Lee builds a delicate\, heartwarming portrait of a family for which food and cooking is the language they communicate with as they navigate together the ever-shifting course of love and relationships in their lives. \n35mm\, color\, in Mandarin with English subtitles\, 123 min.
