[Sehefac] Amazing SEHE affiliates!

[Dana Simmons]

Dear SEHE friends,
I hope that you are well and steadying for the new quarter ahead.
I'm writing with huge admiration to celebrate SEHE affiliates.

Congratulations to *Gloria Chan-Sook Kim*, who published a timely new book!
"*Microbial Resolution* charts the U.S.-led war on the emerging microbe to
show how their uncertain futures were transformed into objects of global
science and security. Moving beyond familiar accounts that link scientific
knowledge production to optical practices of visualizing the invisible,
Gloria Chan-Sook Kim develops a theory of “microbial resolution” to analyze
the complex problematic that arises when dealing with these entities: what
can be seen when there is nothing to see?"

Congratulations to *Cathy Gudis * and SEHE student intern Evelyn Cruz
Jimenez on the "*Live from the Frontline*
<https://ucrarts.ucr.edu/exhibitions/live-from-the-frontline-tamara-cedre/?utm_source=UCR+ARTS&utm_campaign=8932d3c2b6-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_9_20_2019_13_59_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_0cc74d79e5-8932d3c2b6-356650005>"
exhibit now showing at UCR Arts (through October 27). "A People’s History
of the I.E. presents Live from the Frontline, a participatory public memory
project inviting artists into the archives and the landscapes of logistics
to create site-specific works that explore the roots of environmental
racism, and to concurrently advocate for social justice. ...In this
exhibition, artist Tamara Cedré examines the industrial heritage of Colton
and Fontana as a way of framing current questions surrounding the sprawl of
logistics. She juxtaposes her new photographic works with archival imagery
to reveal the forces that have shaped settlement and land use in mostly
BIPOC communities. Aerial footage, shot by supporting artist Adrian Metoyer
gives a wider perspective as soundscapes crafted by media archivist Henry
Apodaca with community journalist Anthony Victoria bring voices and sounds
from the environment into the gallery."
There is an upcoming artist talk and reception on October 13, 3-5pm (UCR
Arts)

Congratulations to *Kalina Michalska* for this interview on KCRW's Press

“When [cortical thinning] happens too quickly … we don't have enough time
to learn from the environment, and so we do see that there's associated
risks for mental health disorders. … On the other hand … under stress,
maybe it's more adaptive to be responsive to the environment faster.”

Finally, cheering for *Mario Sims, Ann Cheney, and Mark Wolfson* as
the new *Master
of Public Health <https://smpph.ucr.edu/master-public-health>* program
launches at the School of Medicine.

I'm proud to be in community with you.
If you have affiliate news, please share. And good luck out there this week!
