Investigating prebiotic chemistry and the fundamental features of life like metabolism, information, self-reproduction, natural selection and computation, is significant within the origins of life research. In this context, one of the key elements constitutes the synthesis of chemistry-based natural-life-mimicking artificial or synthetic living systems, starting from a homogeneous aqueous blend of a few strictly non-biochemical compounds, using a technique called polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA). In one of the studies, gradient sequence-controlled polymers were generated through PET-RAFT-PISA

This is part of the Talks at Twelve series from the Bronfenbrenner Center for Translational Research.

This talk will will focus on how relationships for children in out-of-home care can be supported and sustained beyond placement endings, recognizing the importance for young people and their carers to have an ongoing relationship, even if they are no longer living together, along with the importance of facilitating relationships with birth family.

A particular focus will be on

Join us for a dynamic, interdisciplinary symposium exploring the impact and intersections of weight stigma and weight-based discrimination across healthcare, policy, education and beyond. Leave equipped with research-grounded strategies, collaborative connections, and actionable tools to advance weight justice and drive meaningful systems change.

Sessions throughout the day with expert speakers from Cornell, across the country and the globe.
