SUMMARY:Lunch with a Leader: Beyond Representation - Leveraging Thought and Generational Diversity
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our first “Lunch with a Leader” session of the fall semester\, featuring Jason M. Gaines\, associate director of human resources. \nIn his presentation\, Jason will challenge participants by asking the question: Can an organization look diverse while everyone in the room thinks alike? \nJason’s presentation will expand the traditional conversation about diversity by exploring how differences in perspective\, experience\, problem-solving\, and generational outlook can strengthen teams and improve decision-making. This session will examine the relationship between representation and thought diversity\, the risks of groupthink\, and the leadership practices that help people feel safe enough to question assumptions and contribute their best ideas. Participants will leave with practical strategies for building more inclusive\, innovative\, and intellectually courageous workplaces. \nAbout the speaker \nJason M. Gaines\, MSOL\, is the associate director of human resources at CUNY SPH. Now in his 20th year at CUNY\, he brings extensive HR leadership experience\, along with a deep passion for supporting people and cultivating workplaces where they can thrive. Jason holds a master’s degree in organizational leadership from Lehman College\, where he currently serves as an instructor for the graduate course Leveraging Human Capital. He also holds multiple certifications in emotional intelligence\, intentional leadership\, and managing for excellence. \nWe encourage staff and faculty to attend in-person\, but there will be an option to take part virtually.  \nPlease note this lecture will be held in-person.

SUMMARY:Grand Rounds: The Impacts of Maternal Geophagy on Children’s Neurodevelopment in Zambia
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Grand Rounds with Dr. Sarah Rothenberg! \nFor this month’s Grand Rounds\, Sarah Rothenberg\, DEnv\, will discuss her local and international research on maternal geophagy\, its effects on children’s neurodevelopment\, and the presence of heavy metals in clay. \nAbout the Speaker \nDr. Sarah Rothenberg is an associate professor at Oregon State University. Her research focuses on maternal exposure to environmental pollutants and the effects of those exposures on children’s health and development. Although much of her work is conducted internationally\, the findings have important implications for populations in the United States. \nFrom 2013 to 2024\, Dr. Rothenberg established and led a prospective birth cohort study in rural China to investigate maternal methylmercury exposure through rice consumption and its impact on child neurodevelopment. This research was among the first to examine rice\, rather than fish\, as the primary dietary source of methylmercury exposure. \nThe study found that the neurodevelopmental effects of prenatal methylmercury exposure were more readily detectable at lower exposure levels in a rice-eating population\, where the beneficial nutrients found in fish and their potential confounding effects were less pronounced. \nIn 2023\, these findings informed Dr. Rothenberg’s testimony before the California Legislature in support of AB 899\, which requires testing for four metals\, including mercury\, in foods marketed to infants and young children\, such as rice-based baby cereals. The bill was subsequently passed and signed into law. \nBuilding on her work in China\, Dr. Rothenberg expanded her research on maternal and child environmental health to Zambia. In 2025\, she and her Zambian collaborators received funding to investigate the effects of maternal geophagy\, the consumption of soil or clay\, on children’s neurodevelopment. While geophagy has been documented among mothers in the United States\, it is considerably more common among pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa\, where reported prevalence ranges from 16% to 87%. \nIn this Grand Rounds presentation\, Dr. Rothenberg will discuss this ongoing research\, including analyses of heavy metals found in clay samples purchased in Zambia and in Brooklyn\, New York\, and the potential implications for maternal and child health. \nThis lecture will be on the CUNY SPH campus\, but those who are unable to attend in person will be able to tune in to a livestream of the lecture via Zoom. All registrants should RSVP. Virtual attendees will receive the livestream link after registering. \n

SUMMARY:Grand Rounds: Understanding and Treating Violence as a Contagious Disease
DESCRIPTION:Gary Slutkin\, MD\, will reveal how violence meets the the principles\, criteria\, and definitions of an epidemic contagious disease\, how treating it as an epidemic disease works (for all forms of violence)\, and what is required to eliminate it. He will explain how violence spreads across individuals\, communities\, and countries\, how it can be interrupted\, and what actions are needed now. \nAbout the speaker\nDr. Gary Slutkin is a physician and epidemiologist\, formerly with the World Health Organization (WHO)\, who led efforts to combat epidemics of cholera\, TB\, and HIV/AIDS in over 20 countries in East and Central Africa\, Latin America\, and Asia. He was also the Director of the Intervention Development Unit at the WHO\, which designed innovations in epidemic control to guide countries. \nDr. Slutkin later adapted these methods to address violence. He founded and leads Cure Violence Global (CVG)\, rated the #9 NGO in the world and #1 NGO for reducing violence. CVG has worked on political\, election\, community\, tribal\, cartel\, and prison violence in the U.S.\, Latin America\, Africa\, and in conflict zones in Iraq and Syria. Dr. Slutkin is credited with providing not just a new understanding\, but also with the reclassification of violence as a contagious disease\, and for showing with evidence-based studies that treating violence using epidemic control methods works. These results include 40-70% drops in killings in U.S. cities\, over 30 communities that have gone to zero for one to three years\, in addition to 70- 90% drops in communities in Honduras\, Colombia and Mexico. \nDr. Slutkin is working on violence interruption in war and for authoritarian violence disorder\, a relapsing syndrome of this epidemic disease. He received his MD from the University of Chicago\, and completed his medical residency\, chief residency\, and infectious disease fellowship at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and San Francisco General Hospital. His new book is “The End of Violence.” \nThis lecture will be offered online and in-person. All registrants should RSVP. Virtual attendees will receive the livestream link after registering. \n
