SUMMARY:Vulnerable Bodies: Roman Medical Research and the Enslaved
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is welcome to the next installment of the History of Science\, Medicine\, and Technology Colloquium Series. Dr. Claire Bubb\, Visiting Associate Professor of Classics at USC\, will be joining us. She is a will be presenting “Vulnerable Bodies: Roman Medical Research and the Enslaved.” \nRoman doctors periodically required bodies\, both living and dead\, for medical demonstration and research. There were many vulnerable bodies in Roman society–animals\, the enslaved\, the impoverished\, the outcast\, and the conquered–and this talk will explore which bodies doctors seem to have favored for which purposes. As it turns out\, their use of the enslaved appears to have been surprisingly curtailed. The talk will therefore also address Galen’s perspectives on slavery and the enslaved and explore the potential boundaries to the exploitation of this particularly vulnerable population. \nSee you in the History of Science Room or via Zoom:\nhttps://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/QIkvfaYBTei-hPhAKDF0Pg

SUMMARY:From Face Blindness to Superrecocognition: The Discovery of a Spectrum
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is welcome to the first installment of the History of Science\, Medicine\, and Technology Colloquium Series. Professor Sharrona Pearl of Texas Christian University will be presenting “From Face Blindness to Superrecognition: The Discovery of a Spectrum.” \nSuper recognition was clinically identified in 2009. That’s yesterday in scientific terms. In this talk\, Sharrona Pearl discusses how the face recognition spectrum was developed\, emphasizing the urgent need for the health humanities in clinical practice. (There will also be some games.) \nSee you in the History of Science Room or via Zoom:\nhttps://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/Ynw3Fc2GSdqcAfBEnXi_5g
