Nutrition Provides an Essential Foundation for Optimizing Mental Health

Thursday, Nov 6
12:00 - 1:00 PM

**ZOOM ONLY**

Over the last few decades, scientists have been uncovering an uncomfortable truth: Our current modern food environment is affecting our mental health. In this lecture, Prof Rucklidge will first briefly describe what is known about dietary patterns and mental health and then discuss the recent paradigm shift of using broad spectrum micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) to treat psychiatric problems (e.g., ADHD, depression, stress, emotional dysregulation), reviewing when supplementation might be necessary, the hypothesized mechanisms of action and the current clinical evidence. The talk intends to challenge our current treatment regime for mental disorders and suggest one alternative course of action.

This presentation is part of the Osher Center Grand Rounds, which is a collaboration between the Institute for Public Health and Medicine and the Osher Center for Integrative Health at Northwestern University.

Presenting Medical Research with Excellence

Thursday, Nov 13
12:00 - 1:00 PM

In Person

**This seminar is offered as a HYBRID event, but IN-PERSON attendance is strongly encouraged. Please RSVP regardless and indicate your intended mode. The in-person event will be held in Hughes Auditorium of the Lurie Medical Research Building at 303 E. Superior; Chicago. Lunch will be provided for in person attendees on a first-come, first-served basis.**

Presenting Medical Research with Excellence is an advanced workshop designed to enhance each participant’s ability to conceptualize, construct and deliver a clear and compelling presentation on a complex subject.

How do we engage and hold our audience’s attention? How do we avoid getting bogged down in details and sidetracked by challenging questions? How do we make a persuasive case in a relatively short period of time? During this session we will address each of these questions in detail. In addition, the following topics will be addressed:

• Persuasion Skills: Structure ideas in a logical and concise format while using relevant facts, figures, visuals, examples and stories to drive home a compelling message.

• Performance Skills: Demonstrate good presentation mechanics: voice, eye contact, gestures, energy, stance and movement.

• Content Organization & Development: Quickly and easily develop a customized presentation that is designed to address your audience’s most pressing needs and concerns.

• Audience Engagement: Use various interactive methods to stimulate your audience’s curiosity and participation.

• Slide Design: Quickly and easily create attractive / easy to understand slides that flow from one idea to the next.

From Evidence to Engagement: Using Strategic Communications to Protect Public Health

Thursday, Nov 20
12:00 - 1:00 PM

**ZOOM ONLY**

Public health educators, scholars and workers face an unprecedented time. Trust in science and government is being deliberately eroded, and federal agencies are being dismantled from within. How can we make progress in protecting and advancing public health?

No magic solution exists, but certain approaches can help. One of those is public interest communications – research-based strategic communications for social change. Public interest communicators draw on research into behavioral science, cognitive linguistics, political communication, social science and other disciplines to approach problems strategically and craft powerful messages that motivate people to act positively. They seek opportunities, acknowledge barriers and figure out how to overcome those. Despite seemingly insurmountable challenges, they have managed to effect positive social change.

In this session, we’ll highlight key public interest communications concepts and frameworks. Using examples and case studies, we’ll offer practical guidance to bolster efforts to reach and move policymakers, provide a quick guide on countering disinformation and show how to strengthen communications with communities to protect public health.

Loss of Trust: Societal Pressure and Gender-Affirming Care

Medical providers and researchers associated with gender-affirming care are facing immense societal, political, economic, and moral pressure.

Public Health seminar series — Environmental Toxins & Autoimmune Disease

Online - 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

**ZOOM ONLY**

There are over 350,00 commercial, industrial, and agricultural chemicals currently registered and available for use in the United States, the majority of which have never been tested in humans for safety or toxicity. Only 5 chemicals have been taken off out the U.S. market since 1976, under the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA). The food industry alone uses over 3,000 different chemicals and billions of pounds annually of chemicals that have been grandfathered in as 'safe', under the Generally Regarded as Safe or GRAS regulations. Water regulations, dating back to the 1970's are still in effect, regulating just 91 chemicals in over 160,000 water treatment plants across the U.S.. Home furnishings, air quality, cellular technology all have a "story" regarding regulation, testing, risk of harm, and safe use and alternatives.

Dr. Aly Cohen will discuss evidence-based data on everyday chemicals that we put in, on, and around our bodies and how they contribute to human health conditions, specifically diseases of the immune system. She will discuss dietary approaches to reduce toxicity, clean drinking water, beneficial supplements, indoor & outdoor air quality, sleep hygiene, and stress management. Dr. Cohen will provide practical tips and resources to enable and empower the audience in ways to limit environmental exposures in order to prevent disease, better manage current conditions, and improve overall well-being.

This presentation is part of the Osher Center Grand Rounds, which is a collaboration between the Institute for Public Health and Medicine and the Osher Center for Integrative Health at Northwestern University.
