SUMMARY:14th Annual Roma Conference | Mapping Romani futures: Connected local histories and global realities
DESCRIPTION:Home / Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlood Drive – Harvard Chan Community Day of Service\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Date \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Type \n\n\n\n	From Around the School\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInternational Roma Day has been celebrated by Romani communities around the world for decades. This year marks the 55th anniversary of the First World Roma Congress\, a historic gathering at which Roma Day\, the Romani flag\, and the anthem “Gelem\, Gelem” were adopted as key symbols of the global Roma diaspora. \n\n\n\nAcross regions\, neighborhoods\, organizations\, and institutions use this anniversary to highlight Romani heritage through concerts\, exhibitions\, film screenings\, conferences\, and media events. Many leaders and scholars also observe Roma Day with commemorations that honor victims of anti-Roma racism and reflect on progress in social\, political\, cultural\, and economic life. \n\n\n\nSince 2013\, the annual Harvard Roma Conference has provided a forum to examine and address anti-Roma racism—its origins\, history\, drivers\, protectors\, and global manifestations\, with particular attention to children and youth. The conference has worked to strengthen data collection on Roma (especially youth and children)\, improve research methods\, promote participatory action research with Romani youth\, and critically revisit histories\, policies\, and practices affecting Romani communities. A central goal has been to amplify and center Romani voices and experiences in global scholarship. \n\n\n\nOn April 10\, 2026\, the 14th Harvard Roma Conference\, Mapping Romani Futures: Connected Local Histories and Global Realities\, will once again mark Roma Day. This year’s event examines Romani histories and present-day realities to help shape more equitable futures for Romani children\, youth\, and generations to come\, situating these discussions within a global context of rising human rights abuses\, wars\, extremism\, and climate and digital threats. \n\n\n\nThis year’s program includes: \n\n\n\nKeynote panel on global and regional trends and threats affecting Romani children and youth\, especially in the context of escalating human rights abuses\, wars\, extremism\, and climate and digital risks. \n\n\n\nPanel 1 – Connected Futures\, Histories\, and Realities: Exploring connections and continuities in Romani histories and lived realities\, and how these shape the lives\, inequities\, and identities of Romani children\, youth\, and future generations. \n\n\n\nPanel 2 – Intersectionality and Intersecting Stories: Examining often overlooked and marginal axes of inequity in narratives of Romani histories\, realities\, and futures. \n\n\n\nBook talk: Continuing a recent tradition\, the conference will close with a book talk highlighting recent monographs on Romani people\, with emphasis on works that advance global scholarship. \n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFXB Center for Health & Human Rights at Harvard University\n\n\n\nCentral European University Romani Studies Program\n\n\n\nCarr-Ryan Center for Human Rights (HKS)\n\n\n\nThe Committee on Ethnicity\, Migration\, Rights (EMR)\, Faculty of Arts and Sciences\n\n\n\nHarvard Law School International Human Rights Clinic\n\n\n\nHuman Rights Program\, Harvard Law School \n\n\n\nFeminist Collective of Romani Gender Experts\n\n\n\nWeatherhead Center for International Affairs at Harvard University\n\n\n\nWomen\, Gender\, and Health (Harvard Chan School)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						Unleash your potential at Harvard Chan School.					\n					In addition to our degree programs\, we offer highly targeted executive and continuing education\, directed and taught by Harvard faculty. \n											\n																															\n									\n										Degree Programs									\n								\n																															\n									\n										How to Apply									\n								\n																															\n									\n										Executive and Continuing Education

SUMMARY:Awe on the Margins: Youth Perspectives on the (im)possibilities of Human Flourishing
DESCRIPTION:Home / Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlood Drive – Harvard Chan Community Day of Service\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Type \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Type \n\n\n\n	From Around the School\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Wednesday\, April 15th\, 2026\, from 1-1:50 p.m. in FXB G13 and online\, all are welcome to join us for the sixth and final installment in our Virtues for Well-being Seminar Series\, featuring Dr. Demond Hill. \n\n\n\nLunch provided.  \n\n\n\n\nRSVP TODAY\n\n\n\n\nSeminar Description\n\n\n\nAwe—an emotional response to vastness that transcends our ordinary frames of reference—has the power to transform perspectives\, foster human flourishing\, and enhance well-being. Yet little is known about where awe emerges in marginalized urban contexts\, who can access it\, and how it might disrupt structural inequality. This seminar asks: What would it take for us to be more honest with the lives we are living\, living on\, stepping over\, and forgetting? \n\n\n\nDrawing from the first year of a three-year youth participatory action research project with 20 Black and Brown high school students in Boston\, this work explores how youth make sense of\, complicate\, experience\, locate\, and mobilize awe. Through an after-school awe and flourishing literacy program\, students embarked on awe excursions\, documented their insights\, and designed awe-inspiring spaces. This project cultivates healing\, civic engagement\, and bold visions for communal health equity. Together\, we will consider how “actionable awe” can transform “awe-ful” spaces into “awe-inspiring” ones and illuminate new pathways for collective flourishing. \n\n\n\nSpeaker Biography\n\n\n\nDr. Demond M. Hill is an Assistant Professor of Health Equity at Tufts University in the Eliot-Pearson Department of Child Study and Human Development. His research\, grounded in transdisciplinary\, critical\, applied\, humanizing-based approaches\, focuses on the mental health and well-being of marginalized children\, youth\, and their families\, with a particular emphasis on Black populations. Dr. Hill collaborates with communities to promote and protect opportunities for awe\, belonging\, and human flourishing among Black and Brown communities within systemic inequality. His work centers marginalized communities’ voices and lived experiences and incorporates youth- and community-based participatory action approaches to identify and strengthen protective factors that inform policy and promote mental health equity. \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n		\n						\n							Dr. Demond Hill						\n					\n				Assistant Professor\, Tufts University\n			\n			\n												\n	\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLee Kum Sheung Center for Health and Happiness\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						Unleash your potential at Harvard Chan School.					\n					In addition to our degree programs\, we offer highly targeted executive and continuing education\, directed and taught by Harvard faculty. \n											\n																															\n									\n										Degree Programs									\n								\n																															\n									\n										How to Apply									\n								\n																															\n									\n										Executive and Continuing Education

Indeed\, the greatest burden of disease in the first 2 decades of life is related to mental health. This presents a great opportunity: Effective care for these diseases in childhood has the potential to mitigate and forestall later psychopathology (i.e.\, treatment as prevention). This talk will use data from a 30+ year psychiatric epidemiological study to demonstrate the ways in which this opportunity is often squandered contributing to misery\, morbidity\, and mortality in adulthood.  \n\n\n\nBio: Dr. Copeland is a Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Vermont and the Thomas M Achenbach Chair in Developmental Psychopathology. He was trained as a clinical psychologist at the University of Vermont and then completed a postdoctoral fellowship in psychiatric epidemiology at Duke University Medical Center. He is the principal investigator of the prospective\, longitudinal Great Smoky Mountains Study has been following 1420 participants in rural Appalachia for over 30 years to understand the long-term consequences of early adverse experiences and the development of mental illness. His research program has focused on understanding the developmental epidemiology of emotional and behavior problems across the lifespan. This work includes understanding the interplay between early adverse experiences and genetic vulnerability with other individual\, family\, and contextual characteristics.   \n\n\n\nHis research has been supported by NIMH\, NIDA\, NICHD\, NIA\, and the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation. This program of research has led to over 180 peer-reviewed manuscripts including publications in JAMA\, JAMA: Psychiatry\, the American Journal of Psychiatry\, Lancet Psychiatry\, American Journal of Public Health\, Molecular Psychiatry\, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and Nature Communications. His work has been covered in such national news outlets as Slate\, the New York Times\, TIME magazine and CNN. Dr. Copeland was named on the Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher list in 2017\, 2019\, 2020\, 2021\, 2022\, 2023\, and 2024.  \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n		\n							Bill Copeland\, PhD					\n				Mortality Statistics and Research Team\, Statistical Analysis and Surveillance Branch\, Division of Vital Statisti Thomas M.

In this seminar\, Jackson proposes a new method and software package to relax this often-unrealistic assumption\, using hidden states known as “phases.” This is motivated by applications such as modelling the duration of infections\, modelling time in a detectable state in cancer screening\, and modelling cognitive impairment in studies of ageing. \n\n\n\nChristopher Jackson is a Senior Statistician at the MRC Biostatistics Unit\, University of Cambridge. His research involves incorporating statistical methods in models to combine evidence to inform population health policy. His publications cover Bayesian evidence synthesis\, survival analysis\, multi-state modelling\, longitudinal data\, decision theory\, and model comparison. He has also developed several popular R packages\, and co-authored two textbooks\, “The BUGS Book” and “Value of Information for Healthcare Decision-Making.” \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n		\n							Christopher Jackson					\n				Senior Statistician at the MRC Biostatistics Unit\, University of Cambridge\n			\n			\n					\n	\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCenter for Health Decision Science\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						Unleash your potential at Harvard Chan School.					\n					In addition to our degree programs\, we offer highly targeted executive and continuing education\, directed and taught by Harvard faculty. \n											\n																															\n									\n										Degree Programs									\n								\n																															\n									\n										How to Apply									\n								\n																															\n									\n										Executive and Continuing Education

SUMMARY:Psychotropic Medication Safety in Pregnancy: Moving Beyond Malformation Risk
DESCRIPTION:Home / Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlood Drive – Harvard Chan Community Day of Service\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Type \n\n\n\n	From Around the School\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us on Wednesday\, May 6th for the Department of Epidemiology seminar series featuring Dr. Krista Huybrechts discussing Psychotropic Medication Safety in Pregnancy: Moving Beyond Malformation Risk. \n\n\n\nAbstract: Psychotropic medication use during pregnancy has increased substantially\, heightening the need for robust evidence to guide prescribing and to inform patients about the risks and benefits of treatment continuation. Historically\, research has focused on congenital malformations—paradigmatic harms in the shadow of the thalidomide catastrophe—but other unintended drug effects are equally important and pose distinct methodological challenges. This seminar will examine what we have learned about studying outcomes such as nonlive births and longterm neurodevelopment in children\, highlighting study design challenges\, potential biases\, and data issues that shape inferences about psychotropic medication safety in pregnancy.  \n\n\n\nBio: Krista Huybrechts is Professor of Medicine and Epidemiology at Harvard Medical School and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. She co-founded and co-directs the Harvard Program on Perinatal and Pediatric Pharmacoepidemiology (H4P). Her work\, which is funded primarily by the National Institutes of Health\, focuses on the use of advanced epidemiological and statistical methods applied mainly to large databases derived from health data collected in the context of routine medical care to help address the unique questions regarding benefit-risk trade-off for prescription medication use faced by women of reproductive age and pregnant women.   \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n		\n						\n							Krista Huybrechts\, MS\, PhD						\n					\n				Professor of Medicine\, Harvard Medical School; Professor of Epidemiology\, Harvard T.H.

SUMMARY:Screening for Major Diseases — Does it help?
DESCRIPTION:Home / Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlood Drive – Harvard Chan Community Day of Service\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Type \n\n\n\n	From Around the School\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Cutter Lectures on Preventive Medicine – 10th Symposium\n\n\n\nPart of the Cutter Lectures on Preventive Medicine series\, The 10th Cutter Symposium “Screening for Major Diseases—Does It Help?” will feature three separate lectures from expert speakers on the topic of screening for colorectal cancer\, prostate cancer\, and infectious diseases followed by a moderated Q&A segment with all the speakers. This symposium is open to the public & is virtual only. \n\n\n\nSchedule of talks: \n\n\n\n1:00PM  Introducing the Cutter SymposiumAlbert Hofman\, MD\, PhD1:05PMThe Power of Colorectal Cancer ScreeningHermann Brenner\, MD. MPHAbstract: Over 30 years ago\, in 1993\, a groundbreaking analysis of the US National Polyp Study was published\, which suggested that colonoscopic removal of colorectal polyps was associated with an 88% reduction of colorectal cancer incidence. Since then\, numerous observational studies and randomized trials have confirmed effectiveness of colorectal cancer screening\, even though most of them substantially underestimated screening effects for various reasons. Large heterogeneity in introduction of and adherence to screening programs across countries in the last three decades is mirrored in large heterogeneity of trends in colorectal cancer incidence and mortality. Modelling studies based on the accumulated evidence confirm that the vast majority of the approximately one million colorectal cancer deaths per year globally could be prevented by screening. 1:35PMControversies and Innovations in Screening for Prostate Cancer Lorelei Mucci\, ScD    Abstract: More than 1.6 million men across the globe are diagnosed with prostate cancer annually\, and it is the leading cause of cancer death in more than 50 countries. In randomized controlled trials\, screening with prostate specific antigen (PSA) has been shown to reduce cancer mortality over two decades. However\, PSA screening also has led to overdiagnosis of prostate cancers that have a low potential for metastasis and concomitant overtreatment of patients. What has ensued over the past two decades has been an active debate about the harms and benefits of screening\, guidelines that are often in conflict with one another\, and in the United States\, a substantial reduction in prostate cancer screening that is now tied to an uptake in incidence of metastatic prostate cancer. This talk will provide an overview of the history of PSA screening\, the evidence around risks and harms\, the controversies\, and recent innovations in approaches to accelerate a risk stratified approach to screening. 2:05PM       Diagnostics\, Screening\, and Surveillance in Pandemics Marc Lipsitch\, DPhilAbstract: This talk will describe challenges and opportunities for surveillance during large infectious disease events\, with lessons from COVID-19 and earlier pandemics. Active testing of population-based random samples provide numerous advantages over passive case detection in many situations\, while linked data on demographics\, severity\, and pathogen variant among other characteristics are far more valuable for decision making than the same data if unlinked. Better data can inform more efficient decisions about control measures that improve the ratio of disease control effectiveness to cost and disruption.2:35PMGeneral Discussion3:00PMClosing by Albert Hofman\n\n\n\nSpeakers will share their own perspectives; they do not speak for Harvard. \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n		\n							Hermann Brenner\, MD\, MPH					\n				Professor of Epidemiology\, Heidelberg University\, Scientific Coordinator\, National Cancer Prevention Graduate School\, German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ)\, Heidelberg\, Germany\n			\n			\n												\n	\n\n\n\n	\n		\n						\n							Lorelei Mucci\, ScD						\n					\n				Professor of Epidemiology\, Head of the Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention Track\, Department of Epidemiology\, Harvard T.H.
