SUMMARY:The Race to Research: Plastic\, Microplastics\, and Human Health
DESCRIPTION:Megan J. Wolff\, PhD\, MPH\, will deliver dynamic and in-depth lecture on what is known – and what is being researched – about the impacts of plastics on human health. Recent findings about the impacts of plastic on human health demonstrate that plastic pollution is not just a litter problem\, but a health one. As researchers follow the path of microplastics into the ecosystem and into us\, they are coming to understand the hazards that these chemical particles present to living tissue\, and they are raising alarms. Plastic is ubiquitous in our lives\, and there is little way for individuals to avoid exposure. But solutions do exist – and they are within our reach. Come learn about what they are\, and what you can do to bring them about. \n  \nRegister for this Seminar:\n\n\n\n\nAbout Megan \nMegan J. Wolff\, Ph.D.\, MPH is the executive director of P-SNAP\, a network of physicians and scientists who speak\, write\, and testify on plastics and human health. From 2022-2023\, she served on the Minderoo-Monaco Commission on Plastic and Human Health\, which compiled an authoritative report on the health effects of plastic. She was the Health Policy Director at Beyond Plastics from 2021-2024. Wolff is an adjunct faculty member at Cooper Medical School of Rowan University\, and offers an online class on plastics\, microplastics\, and human health. She is a frequent public speaker. \nDr. Wolff received her Masters and her Ph.D. in Public Health from Columbia University\, and her BA in English from Wesleyan University. She lives with her family in New Paltz\, New York.

SUMMARY:The Politics of Well-being: Place and Well-being
DESCRIPTION:Where we live matters. Join us for the next session in the Politics of Well-Being series\, exploring the geography of well-being: how neighborhood infrastructure\, environmental justice\, urban design\, and housing access shape physical and mental health. This conversation will examine how place-based policies can foster or undermine equitable outcomes — and how communities reclaim agency over space. \nFeatured Speakers: \n🔹 Millan AbiNader\, MSW\, PhD – Assistant Professor\, SP2\n🔹 Alice Xu\, PhD – Assistant Professor\, SP2\n🔹 Moderator: Rebecca Del Rossi\, MSW
