Dr. Sherry Pinkstaff
Faculty Candidate
Title: The Clinical Utility of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Patients With Suspected Myocardial Ischemia
Abstract: Heart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States with coronary artery disease (CAD) representing more than half of all cardiovascular events. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX), which adds ventilatory gas analysis to the traditional stress test, has recently been used to detect exercise-induced myocardial ischemia suggestive of underlying CAD. It is suggested that CPX may improve the diagnostic accuracy of the traditional stress test in a cost effective manner. This seminar will discuss the differences between the traditional exercise test and CPX and the rationale for the use of CPX in this patient population. Data will be presented which demonstrates that ventilatory efficiency declines in men with findings of significant coronary artery stenosis. There will also be a discussion of the clinical pitfalls o…

Nagoya University, Japan
Title: Functional association of brain and body in affective decision making
Abstract: Though traditional microeconomics has supposed that human decisions are based on logical and exact computation of cost-benefit balances or efficacies, studies in behavioral economics and psychology have shown that humans sometimes make irrational decisions driven by affects, especially when values of options and contingencies between options and outcomes are uncertain. Some theorists argued that one important source of such affective drives influencing decision making is bodily responses which are represented in brain regions such as the insula and anterior cingulate cortex. In this talk, empirical evidence for the functional associations of the brain and body accompanying affective decision making will be shown as follows. (1) Heart rate responses and concentration of inflammatory cytokine (IL-6) can predict acceptance or rejection to an unfair offer in an economical negotiati…

The sequel to the 2010 hit Spurious, Dogma finds British intellectuals Lars and W. back together again. Embarking on a drunken lecture tour through the South, the duo turn to Dogma, a semi-religious code based on their philosophical studies. Their mission is soon derailed by endless bickering, inability to take meaningful action and perhaps the biggest catastrophe of all: they can’t seem to find a liquor store that carries their brand of gin! Part Nietzsche, part Monty Python, part Huckleberry Finn, Dogma is a novel as ridiculous and profound as religion itself.
