SUMMARY:Personality Disorders in Everyday Life
DESCRIPTION:What is personality? What differentiates a person’s character from another person’s? What is it about you that makes you… you? In what ways do you get in the way of yourself? These types of questions are easily posed but remain some of the most difficult to answer in all of psychology. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis talk examines these questions and applies them to styles ranging from normal to abnormal variants. \n\n\n\n\n\nLawrence Ian Reed is a clinical assistant professor at NYU. He studies facial expression of emotion\, focusing on why we so visibly express our private motivational and emotional states. He is also a clinically trained psychologist with a specialization in treating adolescents and adults with mood and emotional disorders.

SUMMARY:Ask Dr. Ruth: Screening and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Moderator Annette Insdorf will interview Dr. Ruth Westheimer after a screening of Ask Dr. Ruth\, the acclaimed documentary about the trailblazing sex therapist and educator. \nDirected by Ryan White\, this cinematic portrait—which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival (where Vanity Fair called it an Oscar contender)\, before its theatrical release and streaming on Hulu—follows the feisty\, 4/7″ powerhouse\, who still advocates for a non-judgmental understanding of human sexuality. \nAsk Dr. Ruth traces her evolution from an uprooted “Kindertransport” orphan in Switzerland\, to a sniper in Israel’s War of Independence\, a student in France\, and ultimately a New York media celebrity and teacher (Hunter College as well as Columbia University Teachers College). \nDr. Ruth’s popular radio show\, Sexually Speaking\, had an immeasurable impact at a time when candid discussion of sex was taboo. Her next domain was television\, where she not only engaged in frank talk\, but called sympathetic attention to the AIDS crisis.

SUMMARY:Lateral Cooking: Niki Segnit with Hannah Goldfield
DESCRIPTION:Niki Segnit used to follow recipes to the letter\, even when she’d made a dish a dozen times. \nBut as she tested the combinations that informed The Flavor Thesaurus\, she detected the basic rubrics that underpinned most recipes. Join her as she shares these formulas\, which are infinitely adaptable. The result is greater creativity in the kitchen through improvisation\, resourcefulness and the knowledge and confidence to cook by heart. New Yorker’s Hannah Goldfield moderates. \nA book signing follows the event.

SUMMARY:Neuroscience and the Study of Intergenerational Trauma: How Does the Remote Past Get Under Our Skin?
DESCRIPTION:How do we “remember” things that did not happen to us? Neuroscience has made remarkable discoveries about ways in which our brains and bodies can be affected by traumatic experiences of our parents. We know that children born to survivors of cataclysmic events are themselves more susceptible to stress\, and at greater risk of mental illnesses like PTSD\, despite never having experienced the trauma themselves. Epigenetics\, the in-utero environment\, early experiences\, and the parent-child relationship all play a role. These discoveries have spurred a compelling field of research into intergenerational trauma\, revealing a complexity of biological and psychological interactions determining risk or resilience – but what does this new knowledge mean for survivors and their children? Scholars in the humanities and arts have long explored the lived experiences of those who feel they have inherited trauma from past generations. What can neuroscientists learn from these explorations\, and what can other disciplines take from advances in neuroscience? We hear from pioneering researchers\, clinicians\, and scholars as they make sense of how the remote past gets under the skin to affect the present. \nSpeakers:\nFrances Champagne\, PhD\, Professor of Psychology\, University of Texas at Austin\nGabriele M. Schwab\, PhD\, Distinguished Professor of Comparative Literature\, University of California\, Irvine\nRachel Yehuda\, PhD\, Professor of Psychiatry and Neuroscience\, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai \n  \nDiscussant:\nMarianne Hirsch\, PhD\, William Peterfield Trent Professor of English and Comparative Literature\, Columbia University \n\nModerator:\nClare McCormack\, PhD\, Presidential Scholar in Society and Neuroscience\, Columbia University \n  \nFree and open to the public\, but RSVP is required via Eventbrite. This event is part of the Seminars in Society and Neuroscience series.
