What kind of research do you want to conduct to learn more about your public health issue?

**please don’t just agree to post but add more to their post that can be discussed ***Classmate 1:Hedda: Imagine you are in an elevator with an important funder that wants to fund your public health research. What kind of research do you want to conduct to learn more about your public health issue? Share your elevator speech for a public health topic that you are passionate about and share why it is so important to address this public health issue. Feel free to use first person in your response. Here is my answer below:I am so pleased that you have expressed interest in funding my research on non-medical exemptions from school immunization requirements. I would like to conduct mixed method research ( that is both qualitative and quantitative research) to take a deep dive into the resurgence of measles in school-aged children. I know that your time is a premium so I wanted to briefly outline how I plan to approach this critical public health issue.This is the Problem: Non-medical exemptions from school immunization requirementsWhy is it important? It is important because of the resurgence of measles which is highly contagious. Non –medical exemptions have been shown to contribute to the the resurgence (Nimblett-Clarke, 2021)Why now? With the issue of vaccine hesitancy and public distrust in vaccines, this may result in an even greater increase of the hesitancy to have school –aged children vaccinated.Who is impacted and who cares? Children and their health as well as the health of their peers, school administrators, public health officials and the wider community would be impacted and would be interested in any recrudescence of communicable diseases which were previously eradicated. The impact of measles on unvaccinated children is devastating.In essence, it is the policy makers who influence the laws that impact children, their families and their schools and with my research in our state, it is important that they see the data supporting the need for vaccination and the experiences of Texas and California. They also need to see the difference in policies in turn influences difference in outcomes.I’d be happy to set up a time to discuss further and answer any questions you may have.References:Han, G., Batra, N., Vallejo, A., Schechter, R., Zipprich, J., & Harriman, K.

With about 1 out of 8 men being diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime, it is important that we educate men on the risk factors and ensure they come in for early screening. I stress to everyone that prostate cancer although it may be the second leading cause of death in American men, it is one that can be prevented with timely screening. If we were able to catch more of these cases of prostate cancer at an earlier stage, we can work to decrease the mortality by initiating treatment before the cancer spreads.There are three main risk factors for prostate cancer: age, race, and family history. According to the American Cancer Society, 6 out of 10 prostate cancer cases are diagnosed after the age of 65 and it is more likely to develop in non-Hispanic Black men. At the Chicago Prostate Foundation our goal is to further promote public awareness, prevention, detection, and treatment for prostate cancer. I appreciate your interest in our organization and can assure you that your funding will help us expand our current research. We are currently working on a project that takes a closer look at prostate cancer screening and diagnosis amongst union workers including firefighters and policemen. Through our work at the foundation we have found that this subgroup of men have been associated with late diagnosis of prostate cancer with an associated poor prognosis. Our research that is underway focuses on revealing the barriers that keep these men from early screening. Once these are identified we intend to use this information to create a public health program that focuses on increasing education and awareness amongst union workers.References:American Cancer Society.

How do these sources compare with information on the chosen topic as discussed in the U.S. History textbook?

IntroductionFor this week’s assignment students will be working with a collection of primary source documents. The link in the Resources section above leads to a Library of Congress collection of primary source documents related to the home front in the United States the Second World War.Examine at least a half-dozen text-based sources; take some time and find sources with a common theme that interests you.Activity InstructionsChoose at least three primary sources with a related theme for an essay that explores some particular aspect of life for Americans on the home front during the Second World War.You are free to select a topic that interests you, but be sure to directly work with the primary source materials.Briefly (in 1-2 sentences each) summarize the primary sources you selected (include the document titles). Be sure to identify the common theme you are exploring, and select a theme that is intellectually significant (for example, superficial themes like “Americans were really patriotic” or “times were really tough back then” do not exhibit much effort – dig deeper).What do each of these primary sources indicate about the chosen topic?In what specific ways do these sources complement each other, and in what specific ways do these sources conflict with each other?How do these sources compare with information on the chosen topic as discussed in the U.S. History textbook?Stronger essays will include specific short quotes as needed to support arguments and develop a cohesive essay, while weaker essays will not utilize the primary sources and will be overly general in coverage of the topic.Stronger essays will also find a narrow topic to cover, while weaker essays will be overly broad in their topics. An example of an overly broad topic would be something like “the American home front,” while an example of a sufficiently narrow topic might be “changes in American industry during the Second World War” or “changes in gender roles during the Second World War.”Include a Reference page at the end (follow APA format to the best of your ability) with URLs for the documents. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9C72ISMF_D0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HofnGQwPgqs use them videos https://www.archives.gov/boston/exhibits/homefront https://library.tiffin.edu/home

Should CyberTech remain on both the OPM breach investigation and the overseas case at the same time?

Apply Critical Thinking ASSISTANCEEarly one morning at work, CEO Alice Johnson asks if you have a moment to chat. I need your expertise and advice on a complicated situation for the company regarding an international hacking lawsuit. In her office, Alice explains that CyberTech is serving as the cyber forensics consultant for a law firm handling the suit from a 2015 hack of the Office of Personnel Management, OPM. The OPM hack compromised background information on millions of workers. In a related case Anomalous, a non-US gray hat hacking group suspected in the OPM breach case, is claiming that US-based Equation Set attempted to hack its facilities. So we have a non-US and a US set of test hacker groups involved. With Anomalous, the non-US group, being a client plaintiff in one case against Equation Set, the US group, and as a suspect in the OPM breach. But Alice then outlines why the case is problematic. Along with the OPM victims, CyberTech represents clients from some of the OPM breach suspect companies in unrelated cases, which could appear to be a conflict of interest. This could affect the way our company is perceived by others. We need to maintain our image as an unbiased cyber security consultant. Should CyberTech remain on both the OPM breach investigation and the overseas case at the same time? Or should we drop one of the cases? Apply your critical thinking and analytical skills to figure out what happened what we know and don’t know, and how the company might remedy this situation.

Investigate how basic research in Animal Behavior provides information about important evolutionary-related issues.

OBJECTIVEInvestigate how basic research in Animal Behavior provides information about important evolutionary-related issues.To do this, you will investigate and research behavioral questions about the animal you chose, summarize in writing (in a research paper) the question you asked and your evaluation of the answers you found, inform your classmates about the questions and what you are learned, and participate in presentations and discussions on other student-designed topics.GRADINGWritten Project (150 points) Presentation (20 points)• You will have about 7 minutes to present your power point presentation, and about 3 minutes to answer questions and provide clarification.• For your presentation, you will be evaluated based upon: your choice of an appropriate topic, demonstration of your understanding or your selected topic and how well you communicate that information to your classmates, how well you help your classmates understand the material, how thoughtfully you respond to questions and incorporate others’ ideas, and how clearly and confidently you speak.Discussion Participation (15 points)• Audience – Your participation will be evaluated and scored over the course of all your classmates’ presentations. Your goal is active listening, questioning, and participating in discussions.PROCESS1. Identify your topic and questions (this is the idea/topic you have been working on all semester).2. Organize your final paper:• You must include at least three basic, peer-reviewed research-based articles as part of your sources. Acceptable sources are ONLY: peer-reviewed journal articles, correlational studies, meta-analyses, review articles, book chapters, and books. Please note that you will most likely need more sources to provide enough information on your topic.• This is where your Annotated Bibliography and Literature Review assignments should be helpful. Be sure to review any comments and suggestions that I made when grading those.1• Remember, articles MUST BE from peer-reviewed journal articles or books. NOTE: You can often find articles that pertain to your topic by looking at the• articles referenced in other articles…• Consult a librarian if you have difficulties locating and evaluating sources.3. Format of your paper:• Note that your research paper should be in traditional APA-style, and it shouldconsist of the following sections:Title Page, Introduction, Background (from Literature Review), Discussion, Conclusion, and Reference page (Do not include URLs for the articles you reference).When writing your paper, you should clarify your questions and summarize why they are important for understanding the particular animal’s behaviors – what part of their development and/or evolutionary history does each of the behaviors help us understand and what does the literature say about it? Is your question motivated by real world concerns? For whom does finding an answer matter most? Are there solid answers or is there still research to be done? If so, what needs to be investigated?VERY IMPORTANT: Be sure your Discussion section includes why these behaviors are adaptive and how they have enabled the successful evolution of the animal you chose. Remember that from textbook readings and lectures you have learned about a lot of different hypotheses that explain animal behaviors, and you should discuss which of these are appropriate to these behaviors.Also, see the Research Paper Grading Sheet provided for more specifics on what your paper should include and how your paper will be graded (how points will be allotted). This should help you when organizing and then writing your paper.NOTE: Be sure to cut and paste all the abstracts with citations for any articles that you cite in this paper and place them at the end of the paper.4. Presentations:See the guidelines on the first page under “Grading.”5. Due Date:Your final paper is due no later than the end of the day
