This event is part of the 2nd Annual Disability and Accessibility Symposium, which is also an opportunity to build community over lunch

Rana Hogarth, Associate Professor of History at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, will discuss how scientific endeavors to study mixed race people with Black and white ancestry in the early twentieth century did not emerge in a vacuum, nor did ideas about race that would later undergird eugenic race crossing studies on that very group of people. Slavery gave rise to myths and taxonomies that would come to dominate lay and scientific perceptions of mixed-race people’s bodies for years to come.

Women and Gender Minorities in Science at Yale (WISAY) invites you to Research Chats on Wednesday, March 29th from 6-7:30 PM at Linsly-Chittenden Hall (LC) 101. Pizza will be provided!
We will have three wonderful speakers each give a ~15 min talk about their unique career paths and research:
1. Ashley Rivas: PhD student in Geobiology/ Earth & Planetary Sciences, Yale
2. Els Kuiper, PhD: Post-doc in Molecular Cell Biology, Yale
3. Katherine Schilling, PhD: Lecturer in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale

Systems help artists, scientists, researchers, and scholars across disciplines organize their thoughts and the world around them—categorizing and sorting both concrete objects and abstract concepts. From symbolic languages to ethnography, from environmental surveying to the writing of Black history, how can visual art highlight different facets of this interdisciplinary approach?

Dance, sweat, and flow!

Graduate & Professional students, join us at Yale Schwarzman Center to move and mingle! Yale Schwarzman Center, the Good Life Center, and Payne Whitney Gym (PWG) are hosting this event for G&P students to destress, connect, and build community.
