SUMMARY:Andrés Blanco PhD'10 talk @12:20 and discussion with PhDs @4:30
DESCRIPTION:Economics Principal Specialist in Water and Sanitation Division at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) Andrés Blanco PhD’10 \nUrban Infrastructure in the Amazon Basin\, Challenges and Opportunities: Talk at 12:20pm in Milstein Hall Auditorium\nAbstract: The Amazon Basin is a vast ecosystem covering nearly 40% of South America and 6.7 million square km in 9 countries. This territory is home to more than 30 million people and\, contrary to common belief\, a robust system of cities. In effect\, nearly 70% of the Amazon Basin population is concentrated in urban areas\, with large cities like Manaus\, Belem\, Macapa\, Sao Luis\, Porto Velho\, Cuiaba in Brazil and Santa Cruz in Bolivia encompassing more than 20% of the urban Amazonian population. This presentation describes an ongoing effort to understand the challenges and opportunities associated with accelerated processes of urbanization and its impacts on the critical ecosystems and sustainability of the Amazonia by exploring topics such as (i) the main urban infrastructure deficits in the region\, (ii) the environmental\, social and economic impacts of these gaps; (iii) the main infrastructure policies and projects needed to generate sustainable cities in the region; and (iv) the connection between infrastructure\, environmental and territorial policies and its implications for urban areas. \nMore information and registration link. Held in Milstein Hall Auditorium. \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \nAndrés Blanco discussion with PhD Students: at 4:30-6pm held in Sibley Hall 106\n \nFor PhD students in City and Regional Planning\, Regional Science\, Development Studies\, Economics and related fields to have an in depth discussion and Q&A with the speaker on topics related to his career\, transition to this sector\, experiences\, motivations and advice for current doctoral students interested in exploring additional career options. \nHeld in Sibley Hall 106. \nAbout the speaker\nAndrés Blanco is an international development expert specializing in urban and regional planning. He received his bachelor’s degree in Economics in 1999 and his master’s degree in Development Planning in 2005 from the Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá. In 2010\, he received his Ph.D. in Urban and Regional Planning from Cornell University. Currently\, Blanco works in the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) as an Economics Principal Specialist in the Water and Sanitation Division. Blanco joined the IDB in 2012 as a Specialist in Housing and Urban Development\, where he coordinated several institutional initiatives\, such as the implementation of the Emerging and Sustainable Cities Initiative (ESCI) and the Cities LAB\, the Urban Innovation laboratory at IDB. Prior to joining the IDB\, Blanco worked as an office manager for BBVA Bank\, advisor to the Secretaries of Government and Finance in Bogotá\, professor of Urban Economics at the University of Florida\, and consultant for several organizations like the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy\, the United Nations Development Program\, and national and local governments in Latin America and the United States. \nSupport for the event\nThis event is funded by a Careers Beyond Academia faculty grant designed to bring in speakers from beyond academia. \nMini-grants are awarded on a rolling basis to faculty in the humanities and social sciences who collaborate across disciplines to create an experiential activity that includes alumni speakers. Careers Beyond Academia staff guide and encourage graduate students and postdocs to collaborate with faculty to help create the events. \nBring greater recognition of the career opportunities and skills needed to be successful in a career outside a professorial position. Intended for pre- and postdoctoral scholars to engage with alumni and others who have transitioned to many diverse career paths. \nThe grants are for interactive sessions involving Cornell PhD alumni and other professionals to inform Cornell PhD students and postdocs about careers outside the professoriate and the skills they will need to be successful in these careers.

SUMMARY:UIDP: U.S. Federal Legislative Update: Preparing for What Comes Next
DESCRIPTION:UIDP member representatives are keenly interested in U.S. federal legislation and policies that impact R&D and university-industry partnerships. During this members-only webinar\, Leslee Gilbert of Van Scoyoc Associates will provide timely insights into the current state of affairs in Washington\, D.C.\, with a special focus on the reemergence of rescission bills—a legislative mechanism we haven’t seen used in over 30 years. Leslee will explain the rescission process\, why it’s resurfacing now\, and what implications it may have for federal funding and policy priorities. She’ll also answer your questions on other pending and recently passed legislation and how your organization can navigate and leverage these developments. \nLeslee\, who brings over 20 years of experience working in and with Congress\, will provide a critical update on the evolving legislative landscape\, offering expert analysis on budget reconciliation and its implications for the U.S. research and development enterprise. She will clarify key developments\, explain how Congress plans to enact consequential changes through budget reconciliation\, and explore the challenges ahead. \nCurrent Events and topics of interest discussed in this update may include: \n\nUnderstanding Rescission Bills: What they are\, how the process works\, and why their reintroduction after three decades is significant for federal funding and policy direction.\n Implications for R&D and Higher Education Funding: How proposed rescissions could affect research budgets\, agency priorities\, and university-industry collaboration opportunities.\n Navigating the Political Landscape: Strategies for institutions to monitor\, respond to\, and engage with policymakers during the rescission process to protect and advocate for critical funding streams.\n\nForm more information and to register\, visit the event website. (Cornell University is a member of UIDP.)

SUMMARY:Marisa Turesky consulting firm founder\, community-engaged researcher
DESCRIPTION:Rethinking Academic Futures\nMeet and Greet for PhD students with Marisa Turesky MA’18 at 4pm in West Sibley room 106\nJoin us for a conversation with Marisa Turesky\, founder of her own urban consulting firm and a passionate advocate for community-engaged research. Marisa will share her journey from academia to entrepreneurship\, and how she transformed her research into real-world impact. Whether you’re curious about life beyond the PhD\, dreaming of starting something of your own\, or just want to hear how research can make a difference outside the university – this is for you. \n________________________________________ \nLocating Lesbian Lives — Holistic Housing in a Compassionate City\nTalk with Alumna Marisa Turesky at 12:20pm in Milstein Hall Auditorium\nMore informtion: Marisa Turesky: Locating Lesbian Lives — Holistic Housing in a Compassionate City \nAbstract\nAging-in-place is a widely shared goal among older adults in the United States\, but the literature remains largely heteronormative and androcentric (Turesky\, 2022). This research examines how older lesbians navigate their social and built environments across their lifespan. By applying a queer-feminist lens (Gorman-Murray\, 2008\, Isoke\, 2011) to frameworks for aging in place (Bigonnesse & Chaudhury\, 2020)\, Marisa Turesky demonstrates the gendered and queer pathways toward health justice and community development over time. \nWith spatial oral histories of lesbians aged 65 to 85 in Los Angeles County\, Turesky examines the different ways in which older lesbians use their home communities to find care and connection amid heteronormative built and social environments. In particular\, Turesky asks: does lesbian identity impact aging-in-place? If so\, how? What can planners and policymakers learn from lesbians to create more equitable cities and neighborhoods for a diverse demographic of aging residents to stay in their home communities across the lifespan? \nThis lecture contributes to urban planning research that (a) addresses aging-in-place dynamics\, (b) deepens our understanding of care practices and spatial justice\, and (c) advances the liberation of a heterogeneous LGBTQ+ community. By highlighting lesbians’ relationships with home environments as they age\, planners and policymakers can better understand infrastructures of care and connection in the face of ageism and hetero-patriarchy. These spatial oral histories demonstrate how neighborhoods\, institutions\, and cities can enhance access to spaces and services to improve safety and health among heterogeneous aging communities. \nAbout the speaker\nMarisa Turesky MA’18 is the Director of Research at Mockingbird Analytics\, an equity-based consulting firm\, and a Visiting Professor in Real Estate Law and Urban Planning at UC Berkeley. She is a community-based researcher and educator focused on advancing urban policies through racial and gender equity. She examines how identity and emotions shape people’s access to places and services across the lifespan. Marisa uses trauma-informed evaluation\, community-based participatory action research\, and qualitative methodologies to integrate social movement practices into urban planning. Her research has been published in top urban planning journals. In past projects\, Marisa has worked with the Equity Research Institute\, the ONE Gay & Lesbian National Archive Foundation\, the American Planning Association\, the LA Alliance for a New Economy\, and the Restorative Justice Institute of Maine. She holds a Ph.D. in Urban Planning & Development from the University of Southern California and a Master of City and Regional Planning from Cornell University. She enjoys biking with her wife and puppy\, especially when the ride ends with french fries. \nSupport for the event\nThis event is funded by a Careers Beyond Academia faculty grant designed to bring in speakers from beyond academia. \nMini-grants are awarded on a rolling basis to faculty in the humanities and social sciences who collaborate across disciplines to create an experiential activity that includes alumni speakers.

SUMMARY:Finding Your Research Voice workshop
DESCRIPTION:Two days May 8 & 9 (9am-4pm both days\, must attend both)\n\nRegister now before April 30\nComplete the online registration form to hold a spot on the roster. To confirm a spot in the workshop\, submit your video link as directed below in step 2; it will serve as your confirmation of attending both days of the workshop. Questions can be directed via email to: sv27@cornell.edu. \nLocation will be face-to-face in Clark Hall 247 on Thursday May 8 and Friday May 9. Sessions are only held in person and participants must commit to attending both full days. If you were to pay professionals for this kind of training after leaving Cornell\, registration would be at least $750-$1\,500. Thanks to sponsorship by Cornell Graduate School’s Careers Beyond Academia\, the cost to you is nothing! \nLocation will be on central campus in Clark Hall 247. Lunch will be provided both days thanks to the continued support of our partners in Cornell’s Technology Licensing Office. \nAbout the workshop\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning to tell a compelling research story can have a significant impact on your career. It can make you stand out at professional conferences\, pitch competitions\, on the job market\, or during an ideal networking opportunity. It is easy to tell a research story badly. We provide specific presentation ideas and field tested exercises that will help you improve your talk. Once you’ve learned how to create a dynamic live performance of your research story\, you may come to enjoy presenting in public. \nThis workshop will intensively work your own research presentation and hone your engaging story through a core message. We incorporate theatrical/improv techniques and video feedback to improve your use of body\, voice\, gesture and to capture wording that resonates with your audience. These workshops have led to a published book that summarizes the exercises and serves as a step-by-step guide to Finding Your Research Voice – Storytelling and Theatre Skills for Bringing Your Presentation to Life. It is fully accessible through the Cornell Library System. \n \n“There are faculty who give terrible talks\, and some who make captivating\, engaging talks. I want to be in the latter category. That’s why I signed up for this workshop.”–Benjamin Rosche\, PhD student\, Sociology” \nThis opportunity is open to PhD students and postdocs in all disciplines\, with priority given to those who are ready to present their research. Time: 9 am to 4 pm Thursday May 8 and Friday May 9\, with an hour lunch break. You must attend both sessions. Due to the intensive\, personalized\, mentored interactions during the workshop\, participation numbers are limited. \nThis two-day workshop is designed for any grad student or postdoc in the social sciences\, STEM\, humanities and arts disciplines interested in an immersion to improve their research communication skills. \n“We were an image-oriented species way before development of the written word. The way we include pictures in our presentations can determine if a story will bring us together.”–Itai Cohen\, Professor\, Physics \nLearning outcomes for Finding Your Research Voice:\nCreating a Core Message\nApplying the Dramatic Arc\nConnecting with Your Audience\nExpressing Passion for Your Research\nFinding a Great Beginning\nChaptering Your Story\nSignaling the End\nImproving Your Voice\nControlling Your Body Language\nIncorporating Gesture Effectively \nIn advance of the workshop:\n\nRight now\, record your 10 minute research talk draft and upload it to YouTube (if you have a previously recorded talk that’s fine\, just the first 10 minutes will be viewed). Don’t worry about professional quality\, it can be done informally on your computer with Zoom. Make sure the audio can be heard. Ideally your slides are visible and so are you as you speak. Your 10 minute talk should cover something you would present at a conference\, perhaps in a longer format. An hour long talk is often comprised of three separate but linked 10 minute talks. Choose the research/scholarly/business idea that you are most passionate about as the subject for your talk. Make sure you do not disclose any proprietary information (hopefully you consider this with every talk).\nThen send the video link before April 30 to confirm your attendance to Itai Cohen (itai.cohen@cornell.edu) and Susi Varvayanis (sv27@cornell.edu). Prior to the workshop we will review your talk\, speak generically about what we see during the workshop\, and offer you concrete tips for improvement individually. This is an essential way you will get the most out of this workshop! Please honor this deadline so we have sufficient time to review all submissions.\nLater\, draft a 1 minute (approximate) Elevator Pitch of your core research message to bring to the workshop. We will use your Elevator Pitch to hone your core message and to work on your performance skills. It should include who you are\, what you do\, what you’ve found\, and why it is important.

SUMMARY:Finding Your Research Voice workshop
DESCRIPTION:Two days May 8 & 9 (9am-4pm both days\, must attend both)\n\nRegister now before April 30\nComplete the online registration form to hold a spot on the roster. To confirm a spot in the workshop\, submit your video link as directed below in step 2; it will serve as your confirmation of attending both days of the workshop. Questions can be directed via email to: sv27@cornell.edu. \nLocation will be face-to-face in Clark Hall 247 on Thursday May 8 and Friday May 9. Sessions are only held in person and participants must commit to attending both full days. If you were to pay professionals for this kind of training after leaving Cornell\, registration would be at least $750-$1\,500. Thanks to sponsorship by Cornell Graduate School’s Careers Beyond Academia\, the cost to you is nothing! \nLocation will be on central campus in Clark Hall 247. Lunch will be provided both days thanks to the continued support of our partners in Cornell’s Technology Licensing Office. \nAbout the workshop\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning to tell a compelling research story can have a significant impact on your career. It can make you stand out at professional conferences\, pitch competitions\, on the job market\, or during an ideal networking opportunity. It is easy to tell a research story badly. We provide specific presentation ideas and field tested exercises that will help you improve your talk. Once you’ve learned how to create a dynamic live performance of your research story\, you may come to enjoy presenting in public. \nThis workshop will intensively work your own research presentation and hone your engaging story through a core message. We incorporate theatrical/improv techniques and video feedback to improve your use of body\, voice\, gesture and to capture wording that resonates with your audience. These workshops have led to a published book that summarizes the exercises and serves as a step-by-step guide to Finding Your Research Voice – Storytelling and Theatre Skills for Bringing Your Presentation to Life. It is fully accessible through the Cornell Library System. \n \n“There are faculty who give terrible talks\, and some who make captivating\, engaging talks. I want to be in the latter category. That’s why I signed up for this workshop.”–Benjamin Rosche\, PhD student\, Sociology” \nThis opportunity is open to PhD students and postdocs in all disciplines\, with priority given to those who are ready to present their research. Time: 9 am to 4 pm Thursday May 8 and Friday May 9\, with an hour lunch break. You must attend both sessions. Due to the intensive\, personalized\, mentored interactions during the workshop\, participation numbers are limited. \nThis two-day workshop is designed for any grad student or postdoc in the social sciences\, STEM\, humanities and arts disciplines interested in an immersion to improve their research communication skills. \n“We were an image-oriented species way before development of the written word. The way we include pictures in our presentations can determine if a story will bring us together.”–Itai Cohen\, Professor\, Physics \nLearning outcomes for Finding Your Research Voice:\nCreating a Core Message\nApplying the Dramatic Arc\nConnecting with Your Audience\nExpressing Passion for Your Research\nFinding a Great Beginning\nChaptering Your Story\nSignaling the End\nImproving Your Voice\nControlling Your Body Language\nIncorporating Gesture Effectively \nIn advance of the workshop:\n\nRight now\, record your 10 minute research talk draft and upload it to YouTube (if you have a previously recorded talk that’s fine\, just the first 10 minutes will be viewed). Don’t worry about professional quality\, it can be done informally on your computer with Zoom. Make sure the audio can be heard. Ideally your slides are visible and so are you as you speak. Your 10 minute talk should cover something you would present at a conference\, perhaps in a longer format. An hour long talk is often comprised of three separate but linked 10 minute talks. Choose the research/scholarly/business idea that you are most passionate about as the subject for your talk. Make sure you do not disclose any proprietary information (hopefully you consider this with every talk).\nThen send the video link before April 30 to confirm your attendance to Itai Cohen (itai.cohen@cornell.edu) and Susi Varvayanis (sv27@cornell.edu). Prior to the workshop we will review your talk\, speak generically about what we see during the workshop\, and offer you concrete tips for improvement individually. This is an essential way you will get the most out of this workshop! Please honor this deadline so we have sufficient time to review all submissions.\nLater\, draft a 1 minute (approximate) Elevator Pitch of your core research message to bring to the workshop. We will use your Elevator Pitch to hone your core message and to work on your performance skills. It should include who you are\, what you do\, what you’ve found\, and why it is important. This is a short persuasive speech about you and your work. It should last no longer than an elevator ride (30 seconds to 2 minutes) and should be carefully crafted to maximize both information and interest during short encounters with important contacts. An elevator pitch is a 3-4 sentence summary of the main point of your talk.

SUMMARY:Debunking academia vs. industry myths: Be the entrepreneur of your own career
DESCRIPTION:Less than a third of PhDs get tenure-track jobs. The vast majority of PhDs are left to figure out the labyrinth of a non-academic job market on their own. Yet\, the industry job market is far from the panacea it was touted to be: intense competition\, mass layoffs\, dwindling job security\, lack of intellectual rigor\, lack of time freedom\, discriminatory treatment of international job candidates. This talk will take an honest look at the challenges faced by PhDs in both academia and industry. We will explore ways to design a fulfilling career that provides financial stability for doing what you enjoy. \nDate & Time\nAug 28\, 2025 at 5:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) \nSpeaker:\nKaidi Wu\, Founder\, Academic Trailblazer \nI help PhDs create the careers they want beyond academia. At 16\, I booked a one-way flight to the U.S. to study to become a concert pianist. I obtained my piano performance degree from the University of Michigan\, went on to receive my PhD in social psychology\, and completed my postdoc at UC San Diego. Faced with an abysmal job market in the middle of a pandemic\, I did what every other academic did: breaking into industry and getting myself a good ol’ 9-to-5. I worked at Amazon\, Meta\, and Match. I was rewarded with a great salary. I was also deeply unfulfilled. I discovered a world of people living life outside the box\, academics outside of traditional academia\, who create and attract opportunities that come to them\, not the other way around. I realized: Wealth is abundant. Paths are infinite. You are in the driver’s seat of designing the life you want to live. I am here to help you see your PhD has tremendous value beyond the traditional career paths we have been sold. \nRegistration\nRegister here
