    CHeSS Seminar Series Presentation

    Brown University School of Public Health’s Center for Health System Sustainability (CHeSS), in collaboration with the Information Futures Lab, is pleased to announce that Dr. Reuben Ng will kick off our seminar series.

    Ageism is the discrimination of older adults based on their age and the negative portrayals of older adults as derived from age-based stereotypes centered on illness, irrelevance, and incompetence. Join us as Dr. Ng discusses innovative methods in analyzing the historical narratives of aging over 200 years, contemporary media portrayals of older adults, and strategies to reframe aging.

    We hope to see you there!

    CAHPR Seminar Series Presentation

    Brown University Center for Advancing Health Policy through Research is pleased to announce that our April 3rd Seminar Series will be presented by Alyssa Bilinski.

    Here is a description of this presentation:

    Does your code work? How are you sure? Software engineers have thought a lot about answers to these questions. Researchers, not so much. In this talk, I’ll argue that better systems for reproducibility and transparency could both improve science and help researchers, and I’ll talk about what these could look like in health policy.

    We hope to see you there!
