It's been an awesome three years working with you, Kris, and looking forward to more! Excited for your next chapter on climate adaptation and health! 🙌🏻🎉
Our recent #AABA2024 session got great coverage in Science Magazine 👇🏻. One of my favorite session take-homes: making human diversity all about genetic diversity feeds into essentialism, when genetic differences are essentially meaningless & there is so much more to diversity.
I had totally forgotten about this GSB podcast Nicole Ardoin and I did last year following our conference on adaptation. Shout-outs to @psmaldino.bsky.social@annepisor.bsky.social@lesja.bsky.socialyoutu.be/VKyw5U8Z8xQ?...
Listen as professor William P. Barnett and Stanford student Ingrid Ackermann host a discussion with professor James Holland Jones and E-IPER director and associate professor Nicole M. Ardoin to discuss the takeaways from an academic conference held at Stanford GSB on May 19-20, 2023. Ten social scientists with expertise in behavioral science, social-ecological systems, institutional change, anthropology, psychology, and other areas pertinent to biosocial/biocultural adaptation will present pioneering research and insights on key aspects of adaptation and innovation for sustainable societies. The presentations, and resulting discussions, will address a range of issues including, but not limited to, climate change, biodiversity loss, and population, among other pressing challenges. This conference is designed to facilitate dialogue, knowledge exchange, and collaboration among world class researchers and practitioners with the hope to create a sustainable toolkit to cultivate positive habits for our future and a sense of shared prosperity. The Stanford Initiative on Business and Environmental Sustainability Research Conference Series is hosted by Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability. Season 1, episode 15, recorded May 23, 2023 #GSBsustainability #GSBpodcast
Nice write-up. Part of our series on how human ecologists, who study adaptation in general, apply the ideas to adaptation in particular. 🧪 #ebhea

Heat: The silent killer stalking Australia's summer (what a great headline, from yesterday). We know a lot about inequities and aspects like remoteness and heat in Australia thanks to some really great researchers. Lots to take on board here. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-a...#scicomm
Extreme heat is the nation's deadliest natural hazard, but its impacts aren't being felt equally.
“When there is a greater diversity of experiences among researchers, science is the better for it. It increases the diversity of research questions researchers ask, & having a range of research questions can better tap the range of human experience – our flexibility in intergroup relations, for one”
Is intergroup aggression part of human nature? Or is intergroup tolerance part of human nature? Yes & yes. Human intergroup relations are profoundly flexible - & that same flexibility can influence how science is done. See my latest blog post for more: www.hbes.com/human-interg... #hbes #ehbea
