Events

We invite early career faculty to join SSRC for the third event of a new series that features research presentations by junior faculty across the social sciences. Brief presentations will be followed by discussion, as well as a light reception and time for informal conversation.

Through this series, we hope to build community across disciplines and units. We also seek to foster the professional research connections that are key to social science inquiry and innovation.

Presenters:

Emily Kern, History Emily Kern is a historian of science, with a specialty in the intellectual and cultural history of anthropology, evolution, and the life sciences. Her research and teaching focus on the relationship between the production of scientific knowledge and the production of global political power in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Aimee Hilado, Crown Family School Aimee Hilado’s research centers on the impact of immigration trauma, early childhood/adult mental health, and culturally sensitive clinical practice for refugee and immigrant populations. She seeks to humanize the complexity of the refugee/immigrant experience and provide guidelines regarding the clinical application of evidence-based interventions with global populations through community-engaged research partnerships.

Evan Rose, Economics Evan Rose’s research focuses on topics in labor, human capital, discrimination, and crime. His recent work has explored the long-run impacts of incarceration on labor market opportunity and systemic patterns in hiring discrimination among large U.S. employers.

This event is open only to junior faculty and postdocs in social science disciplines (in SSD, Crown Family School, Harris, and Booth).

Presented by the Social Sciences Research Center.
