Perry DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by:  Historians are writers! (HAW!)\, Cornell’s History Department and Careers Beyond Academia \nThere’s no such thing as the Ivory Tower. Colleges and universities are not isolated enclaves\, and they probably never were. Public engagement is an essential part of the core mission of higher education. \nBut how do we reach the public? This age of constant media babble and a vast explosion of online and print publications have transformed the traditional pathways of publication\, prestige\, and engagement. Academics – experts in so many things – need to be part of the conversation. In fact\, the variety of media voices has only made expertise and authority more important. \nIn this workshop\, David M. Perry will lead you through the process of getting your voice into the public sphere. He will cover pragmatic topics: the art of the pitch\, finding the right venue\, managing social media profiles\, getting paid\, making it count for tenure and promotion\, and protecting yourself from trolls and harassment. He will also talk about strategies to simultaneously maintain academic authority and be accessible to the broader public. \nThrough it all\, you’ll be working on your pitches\, reading essays that embody important traits\, and developing your own ideas. \nOver the last five years\, David – once a mild-mannered medievalist – has become a columnist for Pacific Standard Magazine\, with hundreds of published pieces at venues all over the world\, including the New York Times\, the Guardian\, and the Chronicle of Higher Education. Along the way\, he’s learned a lot about how to take academic expertise and share it with a much broader audience. \nGoing public isn’t easy\, but neither is getting into graduate school\, getting a PhD\, or finding an academic job\, so you’ve already traveled some pretty difficult paths. This workshop will start you on your way towards the next challenge. \nTopic: Workshop with David Perry\nTime: Apr 9\, 2021 01:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nMeeting ID: 950 0402 7664\nPasscode: 869618 \nFor additional information\, email Benedetta bc552@cornell.edu URL:https://gradcareers.cornell.edu/event/workshop-about-public-writing-with-david-m-perry/ CATEGORIES:Careers Beyond Academia ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://gradcareers.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Screen-Shot-2021-03-29-at-09.38.59.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210408T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210408T181500 DTSTAMP:20260403T181514 CREATED:20210405T130416Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210408T164553Z UID:10002125-1617903000-1617905700@gradcareers.cornell.edu SUMMARY:Fireside Chat with Petri Bio – Identifying Opportunities for PhDs in Life Sciences\, Food\, and Agriculture Startups DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsored by Careers Beyond Academia\, eShip at Cornell\, and the Cornell Institute for Food Systems Institute Partnership Program. \nPlease join us for a Fireside Chat with Petri Bio\, a formation-stage venture capital firm focused on companies at the intersection of biology and engineering\, with deep experience developing ideas into successful companies across human health and sustainability. \nDesigned for Ph.D. students and Postdocs from all disciplines to explore opportunities in both scientific and business roles\, this Fireside Chat will explore steps you can take to engage with Petri and the early-stage startup ecosystem – whether you are just beginning your Cornell journey\, hunting for a job opportunity in an early-stage\, entrepreneurial organization or considering founding your own science-driven startup. \nSpeakers:\nJosh Moser\, Partner\, Petri.Bio \nMichael Retchin\, Venture Associate\, Petri.Bio & Weill Cornell\, Computational Biology\, Ph.D. candidate \nDial-In Information\nRegister; a Zoom link will be provided on registration confirmation. \nThursday\, April 8\, 2021\, from 5:30 pm to 6:15 pm via Zoom \nFireside Chat with Petri Bio\nIdentifying Opportunities for PhDs in Life Sciences\, Food\, and Agriculture Startups\nAbout Petri \nPetri is a new approach for funding formation-stage startups at the intersection of biology and engineering. \nPetri is co-created by entrepreneurs who have built iconic companies like Twist Bioscience\, Insitro\, Ginkgo Bioworks\, Beyond Meat\, PathAI\, Exact Sciences\, and Asimov as well as academics who are driving foundational science in bioengineering (George Church\, Pam Silver\, Chris Voigt); together we have deep experience developing ideas into successful companies across human health and sustainability. \nFor more information about Petri Bio.

Cornell Professor Dr. Drew Harvell has a wealth of experience in advocacy and policy work in addition to her science. \nDr. Drew Harvell is Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University and Curator of the Blaschka Marine Invertebrate Collection. Her research on the health and sustainability of marine ecosystems has taken her from the reefs of Mexico\, Indonesia\, and Hawaii to the cold waters of the Pacific Northwest and resulted in over 170 academic articles in journals such as Science\, Nature\, and Ecology. Her award-winning book\, Ocean Outbreak\, details infectious epidemics in the ocean and solutions that benefit people and biodiversity.  Dr. Harvell’s current research is focused on health of the Salish Sea and policy routes forward. Her first policy involvement was with helping to draft The Marine Disease Emergency Act (HR 936\, 2015). Current work focuses on science discovery to reveal new disease-fighting services of seagrasses and interfacing with state agencies in Puget Sound to increase preservation of seagrass.
