Please join us for our next PQHS-based Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Learning Group. We will be sharing and discussing articles and current events, along with personal and professional experiences relevant to DEI in research.
One of the goals of the group is for attendees to walk away with knowledge that is actionable so that we may include diverse perspectives in our work and build new collaborations and networks. These experiences include opportunities participation in case-based learning, workshops, and brainstorming sessions across a broad range of topics and disciplines.
This group is a safe space for anyone who wants to expand their knowledge and skills related to DEI and is for people who are both new to DEI topics in research and those who have been working in this space already. Welcome!
Date/Time: Third Wednesday of the month, Noon – 1:30 pm
Location: This DEI group will be hybrid - online and in person. The in-person group will be held in the Wolstein Research Building in room 3-136. If you don't have access to WRB, let us know. We'll make sure that someone is available before and during the first 10 minutes of the meeting to provide access to the space.
Topics: Vary each month

ENIGMA is a weekly series of informal seminars that seeks to create a community of faculty, post-docs, students, and staff focused on topics involving genomic epidemiology, statistical genetics, and computational biology. The goal of each seminar is to provide a "water-cooler" environment for informal discussions and fostering of new ideas/collaborations.
Presentations can include journal articles, research aims, research results, funding announcements, etc. The presenter typically uses only a few PPT slides with a specific emphasis on the hypothesis - WHY is this research important? What impact does it have? What are its ramifications? The presenter also will provide 3-4 open-ended questions for discussion.
Participants are encouraged to review the article, grant aims, etc., in advance to engage in thoughtful discussion.
If you would like to suggest a topic or be added to the list, contact Fred Schumacher: fredrick.schumacher@case.edu
Date/Time: Wednesdays - 4:00 - 5:00
Location: WRB 2136
Note: Drinks and light snacks are served
The complexity of research into the genetic architecture of Alzheimers requires collaboration across dozens of institutions, including seasoned leaders along with the faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and PhD candidates who make up their teams.
In collaboration with the Alzheimer’s Disease Genetics Consortium, we have developed a multi-institutional seminar series highlighting team members who represent the next generation of Alzheimer’s Disease researchers. Their work contributes to the understanding of Alzheimer’s disease mechanism, with the goal of improving diagnosis and treatment.
