SUMMARY:CHDS Seminar with Christopher Jackson
DESCRIPTION:Home / Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEmbodied Trauma Care: 23 years of breaking new ground and expanding access\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	Lectures/Seminars/Forums\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin the Center for Health Decision Science for a seminar with Christopher Jackson from the University of Cambridge\, UK\, titled\, “Making Semi-Markov Multistate Models for Intermittent Observations Easily Usable.” Multi-state models for changes in a state (e.g. of health or illness) often assume that the transition rate is constant with time spent in the state (the “Markov” assumption). 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\nEmbodied Trauma Care: 23 years of breaking new ground and expanding access\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	Lectures/Seminars/Forums\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\nEmbodied Trauma Care: 23 years of breaking new ground and expanding access\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	Lectures/Seminars/Forums\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.

SUMMARY:HCMPH Center Annual Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Home / Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEmbodied Trauma Care: 23 years of breaking new ground and expanding access\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	Lectures/Seminars/Forums\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are delighted to welcome everyone to the eighth annual Harvard Chan Microbiome in Public Health Center (HCMPH) symposium. As microbial community science expands across industry\, clinical research\, biotech\, and pharma\, this year’s theme – translating the microbiome – focuses on turning discovery into implementation. From the first approved live biotherapeutics to microbiome-informed cancer immunotherapy\, the field is already reshaping how we understand health and develop therapies.  \n\n\n\nThe symposium will highlight recent advances while looking ahead to future opportunities\, including microbial biochemistry in small-molecule drug development and engineering of microbial community members. As always\, we hope to be joined by an audience that is both topically and geographically diverse\, online and in person. The symposium program will include keynotes\, invited talks\, and selected presentations from poster submissions. We collect a nominal fee for in-person registration\, with virtual attendance available for free. Refreshments and a poster presentation are offered on-site\, and support for social media and interactive participation are provided for online attendees. \n\n\n\nFor more information on the event and the poster reception\, please visit this link. \n\n\n\n** REGISTRATION **\n\n\n\nIn-person registration is available: HEREVirtual registration continues to be free and is available here: virtual attendance only \n\n\n\nLocation:Harvard T.H.
