“Life expectancy in Italy is 82.7 years, while in the US ...for a Black male it’s 70. So in the US I’m already two years past my expiration date. But in Italy I can get 10 extra years.”

My media section is six pages long. I could probably prune a lot of the older stuff, but that section's at the end, and people don't have to read it. I really should cut my conference presentations section, tho. I think some folks have a short, minimalist version and then a longer version.

An article in the peer-reviewed medical journal The Lancet, using the conservative estimate of 4 indirect deaths in Gaza for every one direct death (in other conflicts it’s been 3-15x), calculates that Israel has killed approximately 186,000 Palestinians. That is 8% of the population of Gaza.

Though many states still allow abortions for 'medical emergencies', burdens (e.g. confusing statutes) mean almost no one gets them--parallel to the TRAP laws prior to Dobbs that limited access to abortion when it was legal. A point we make in our piece on "gendered burdens". osf.io/preprints/so...

In the absence of a decent social safety net, attacks on reproductive freedom trap women in motherhood and leave them with nowhere to turn for support in holding it together and nowhere to hide when others ask them to hold even more. Join me to talk about what's at stake and how we fight back.

In Japan, women who want sterilization must already have children, prove that pregnancy would endanger their health, and get consent of their spouses. Also, the pill and IUDs aren't covered by national health insurance, and women need partner consent for abortions. www.nytimes.com/2024/06/21/w...

But then also have a separate institute of mental health and one for neuroscience. And NICHD basically disappears bc its current focus certainly doesn’t fit into the disability research. It’s awful.
