- Descripción/Resumen:
- This research analyzes the "syndemic" of mental stress and physical pain among 299 unregulated laborers in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Results reveal that psychological distress increased the risk of physical injury by 28-fold, highlighting a critical link between economic instability and worker health. These findings offer urgent parallels to the U.S. "gig economy," where delivery and warehouse workers face similar occupational injustices without safety nets. The presentation moves beyond ergonomics to propose a Social Justice Framework, challenging attendees to advocate for ethical supply chains and for mental health protections for vulnerable workers, both globally and locally.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- What happens when the biggest barrier to scientific discovery isn’t a lack of ideas, but the cost of the tools themselves? In this episode, Jarin Earle, a junior in Mechanical Engineering at North Carolina A & T State University, shares how a summer research project designing a low-cost viscometer changed the way he thinks about engineering; not as a way to build machines, but as a way to expand who gets the opportunity to do science.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- Through my college journey, the terms “research” and “zero-emissions” have become central to my academic identity. Not just because they reflect both my lab experience and keen interest in sustainable tech, but because they evoke a personal question that many high school seniors and college underclassmen grapple with: what does it mean to be a scientist? I’m Trevon Collins, a mechanical engineering student at Tennessee Technological University. In this podcast episode, I’ll share the answers I’ve found through investigating age-old secrets of phase change and their implications for the green transition.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- Kennedy Whiters lives by "Do not fear failure; rather, fear not trying." She participated in the REALIZE REU when she was a junior at Albany State University. Kennedy performed research on methanogens, a type of anaerobic bacteria that consumes carbon dioxide and turns it into natural gas, which we can use as a source of energy in power plants. In this episode, she describes her experience working in the lab of Prof Annie Rowe, where she found the lab group to be a good source of positive support, like her family.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- This archeometric study analyzed local clay deposits at the Ingels Family Farm, settled in the Early Nineteenth Century in Bourbon County Kentucky. The redware pottery made on site was bartered and sold in the region, and the clay deposits were also used to make the bricks that constructed the 1820 Ingels family residence, still extant as of May 2026. Numerous materials characterization techniques including XRD, XRF, DTA/TGA, Spectroscopy, wet chemical analysis, and SEM were used to determine the characteristics of the local clay deposit and the identifying characteristics of the redware. The study also tested the wares to determine an approximate firing range, which was consistent with the requirements of low-to-mid fired earthenware. This study was done using archaeological materials from a previous archaeological investigation of the farm, but new material was added with the assistance the USDA Soil Survey Office in Kentucky, who drilled core samples for the project in Spring 2012.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- Raja Ravi Varma’s representation of apsaras is a cultural shift from the traditional Indian visual culture that focused on their bodies and promiscuity. Ravi Varma emphasizes the spiritual significance of apsaras in Hindu mythology and uses cultural symbolism to demonstrate their individual impact. Apsaras in Indian temple art are objectified and depicted as passive objects, which misrepresents their significance in Hindu mythology and spiritual enlightenment. The evolution of apsara representation is caused by cultural shifts and mythological research that centers women as independent subjects. Ravi Varma combines European and Indian art traditions to normalize the Indian culture of nudity and sensuality. He rejects the visual tradition of objectifying apsaras to emphasize their spiritual significance in Hindu stories.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- Modern industrial equipment are networked to interact with both internal and external systems, enabling automated decision-making with minimal or no human intervention. While this new environment creates efficiencies, it exposes the environment to cyber threats. This chapter explores the use of cybersecurity testbeds to study best practices in architecting and defending environments that contain industrial systems. Cybersecurity testbeds – physical, virtual, and hybrid – are used in different sectors for research and validation. Virtual testbeds hold promise as they enable design flexibility, reconfiguration, and scale to support various types of research studies. This chapter discusses the value of virtual cybersecurity testbeds and demonstrates a case study on the use of virtual testbeds using a simple industrial control system and a common attack. The concepts apply to more complex set ups and more complex attack structures. Virtual cybersecurity testbed can support researchers, practitioners, and educators interested in defending critical infrastructure environments and industrial systems.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder commonly characterized by centrofacial erythema, papules, pustules, vascular instability, and ocular involvement. Although extensively studied in lighter skin tones, significant disparities remain in the diagnosis, detection, and treatment of rosacea in individuals with skin of color. This review examines current literature regarding rosacea in melanin-rich skin with emphasis on prevalence, biomarkers, pathophysiology, diagnostic challenges, Demodex folliculorum involvement, and treatment approaches. Current diagnostic standards rely heavily on visible erythema and telangiectasia, which are often less apparent in darker skin tones, contributing to underdiagnosis and delayed treatment. Research also suggests differences in inflammatory biomarkers, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and vascular responses in skin of color. Treatment methods including topical therapies, lifestyle modifications, and laser-based thermal therapies are reviewed alongside their limitations and risks in melanated skin. Emerging diagnostic technologies, such as computer-aided imaging systems and biomarker-based approaches, demonstrate potential for improving diagnostic accuracy across diverse populations. Overall, this review highlights the need for more inclusive research, improved clinical education, and culturally competent diagnostic criteria to better address rosacea in underrepresented populations and reduce disparities in dermatologic care.
