Arie Dubnov will discuss his current book research project, tentatively entitled Dreamers of the Third Empire/Temple, which examines ties between Zionist and British imperial thinkers in interwar years and seeks to uncover alternative, neglected federalist political schemes for the region's future that were circulating at the time.
Duke in Peru is a six-week, credit-bearing summer program that brings together critical global health topics, Indigenous cultural perspectives, and Spanish sociolinguistics in one of Latin America's most ecologically and culturally rich regions. Anchored in the Andean highlands and Amazonian lowlands, this program challenges students to think deeply about how social, environmental, and linguistic contexts shape public and community health.
This information session will provide an opportunity for students to learn more about Duke in Peru.
Come join us in the fields to lose track of time, be outdoors, practice embodied work, and experience profound community with plants, soil, and humans! Our students, volunteers, and staff consistently say that their most memorable memories at DCF are the conversations they shared over a wheelbarrow of mulch or while tackling weeds in a bed of carrots together. Absolutely no farming experience is necessary, and there is no Duke affiliation required. We have tasks for most ages and abilities.
Nephrology Grand Rounds are the primary teaching conference of the Division of
Nephrology. Both clinical and basic science topics pertinent to nephrology are
presented at this conference. Each fellow, guided by a faculty-mentor, will
present once a year. Speakers from outside the Division of Nephrology and Duke
University will also be incorporated into the conference schedule.
Health Assessment is a free, confidential health screening provided through Duke benefits. It includes total cholesterol, blood pressure, blood glucose, BMI, waist circumference height, weight and body mass index measurements. Additionally, there is a goal setting and referral session with a nurse, dietitian, or fitness specialist. Many participants find the coaching session helps them get started making lifestyle changes and connects them to LIVE FOR LIFE and community resources to support them. Health Assessments are available to all active Duke employees.
The brain is incredibly complex, with diverse functions that emerge from the coordinated activity of billions of neurons. These functions vary across brain regions and adapt dynamically as we engage in different tasks, process sensory information, or generate behavior. Yet, each neural recording captures only a small glimpse of this immense complexity, offering a limited view of the broader system. This motivates the need for an algorithmic approach to stitch together diverse datasets, integrating neural activity across brain regions, cell types, and individuals.
