Duties include reviewing proposed research protocols and inspecting labs for compliance with federal and state law regarding animal welfare.Represent the general community interests in the proper care and treatment of animals on periodic IACUC Committee meetings. Review, contemplate, analyze, and assess protocols submitted by investigators approximately one week prior to the meeting, examining investigators' claims that the scientific merits of the experiments justify the use of the animals and tht there is no other way to acquire the biomedical knowledge that researchers seek without using animals, and to assess whether and to what extent the animals during the protocols would be treated according to community, institutional, and legal standards (defined as 'humanely and ethically'), and (during the meetings), discuss with the committee the protocols before the committee members vote to approve or disapprove the protocol.Use the resources of the Committee's librarian and veterinarian, and the pharmacologist who chairs the committee, whose research efforts do not involve using animal models.Be well-versed in the nature of such research protocols, the nature of doing pharmaceutical science, and the array of nonanimal research models currently available, and the research potentials and limits of those nonanimal research models.

Commercially supporting climate and energy SDGs and Paris Climate goals, I managed partnerships and associates to reach lead volume and booking goals for residential markets. I gave lead generation guidance for commercial and residential solar systems, green electricity, and carbon-neutral travel.A socially responsible energy company,Viridian provides clean energy choices at competitive prices. Viridian was founded with vision to empower customers to reduce harms to the environment and in their personal lives by simply switching energy providers and providing solar panels at no cost to residents and commercial properties.Viridian saved clients money on travel or electric bills (whether they rent or own - as long as thery paid for the electricity) and/or offered homeowners a free Solar consultation. Energy deregulation in 2/3 (34 of 50) US states led to electricity producer consumer choice. Viridian messaged "'go green' and save money by sourcing energy from renewables (locally sourced wind and/or solar); save money by 'going green' in AZ, CA, CT, DC, DE, IL, MA, MD, NH, NJ, NY, OH, PA, RI, SC, TX, VT, and VA."Viridian Energy offered 3-YEAR FIXED RATES with a 110% rebate at the end if client paid more than the utility would have charged. If not interested in a 3-year fixed, Viridian guarantees clients 5% below the utility's rates for 1 year, in every market where Viridian offers renewable electricity.I earned several credentials during the years I worked (on the side) with Viridian and its parent, Crius Energy (traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange).Check: http://SustainableGreenForever.Viridian.comUnderstanding and effectively communicating green values and the availability of current green technologies was pivotal in the outreach effort.

Service to the US Constitution and the peoples of the RepublicSupervised enumeration teams of 2 to 30 in multiple campaigns (GQ, NRFU, TL, SBE, TNSOL) during the 2020 Decennial CensusBeginning late June 2020, the Group Quarters Enumerator followed-up 'group living quarters' with incomplete census form completion. Census 2020 was reorganized because of the coronavirus pandemic lockdown, and in January I had been selected as Field Supervisor to support the field enumeration in subsets of areas including residents Boston, Massachusetts.I began doing this sort of work with Census 2000 as Office Operations Supervisor (OOS) for a 5-city area in Greater Boston, including Melrose, Malden, Medford, Somerville, and Cambridge (my initials are ALSO 'MSC').I was first selected in early January 2020 for a role in the 2020 Census.

Service to the US Constitution and the People of the RepublicManaging a remote team. Working in the field and from home, Census Field Supervisors supervise census takers, monitor their progress and performance, and ensure that the quality of work is maintained while the work is completed on time, clearly communicating goals and objectives of the team while tackling issues that remote work can bring. In late July I began a FT position as CFS (Census Field Supervisor) with about 25 'reports' (Field Enumerators) for NRFU (Non-Response Follow-Up).I served PT as Enumerator in the Group Quarters operation until the very end of July, 2020.

I sought to support Harvard's missions of knowledge production (research) and reproduction (scholarship, teaching, publication) in Boston based upon my skills, understanding, and formal and informal education.I completed the Master of Science in Management degree with a Research Administration emphasis. I earned an A+ in my thesis: The business case for implementing a smoke-free building policy in multi-unit residences. I also completed seven (7) relevant certificate programs for work at Harvard in research administration.I was Program Manager of Ethical Issues in Global Ethics Research at HSPH from 2007 through mid-2010, when I handed off the course to the HSPH Office of Research Administration (OHRA). I am preparing to move ahead with my research administration career, whether in public health, epidemiology, biomedicine, clinical research, energy, policy, compliance, natural science, or elsewhere. I am current developing some articles about the HMS Center for Bioethics.

My role in Global Health & Population involved supporting public health ethicists who do medical and public health ethics, analyzing medical and health issues that touch upon whole populations, societies, individuals, and parties of interest, with philosophical rigor. My most recent work involved grants, conferences, international travel, publications, calendaring, workshops, and more. My co-edited book, The Truth Is The Whole: Essays In Honor of Richard Levins (released September 2018) was a Festschrift for one of this Department's former Faculty, for which I had co-organized in 2015 a 3-day birthday celebration symposium with presentations by 40+ of his former students.I had begun learning Mandarin to support my principal's teaching and research in Southeast Asia and China, then I began reading widely in aspects of both research and clinical ethics. We interfaced with WHO and various national and international bodies - governmental, professional, scholarly, and academic.

The Department of Global Health and Population (GHP) seeks to improve global health through education, research, and service from a population-based perspective. The 21st century has arrived with a complex set of demographic patterns, disease burdens, and health policies. These create challenges that affect all societies, rich and poor, developed and developing. The department's approach to these problems combines the analysis of population and health using quantitative and qualitative methods, the investigation of policies that affect health, and a concern with the politics and ethics of health and development.Our ethicists (ethics philosophers) and groups are interested in general human rights and ethical issues in throughout the developing and developed world. We sit physically within a medical ethics group inside the HMS Department of Social Medicine (GHSM); I work with philosophers with a social science emphasis, touching on medical and health issues, including the ethics of research. We interface with WHO and various national and international bodies - professional, academic, scholarly, and academic.My position is funded by the HSPH Dean's Office. My current work involves international travel, publications, conferences, grants, workshops, online research, ethics coursework, calendaring, and more.

Because of a generous $350 million bequest, the century-old Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) has become the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health (HCSPH). The name change was rolled out January 2015.The Department of Global Health and Population (under Dr. Wafaie Fawzi), which focuses on Population Health in all its many ramifications, now is able to continue its broad work in research, education, knowledge translation, and implementation research in global health and population health.

Decades of useful, applicable, transferrable support and management skills, enhanced by recent Master's degree in management while in biomedical and social research environment at Harvard.

Richard Levins (1930-2016) was an outstanding ecologist, population geneticist, biomathematician, philosopher of science, complexity theorist, and Marxist. Key to all aspects of his work was a dialectical logic of process and change. His work provides a framework for the understanding of crises in environment and society and their analytic relationship with capitalism and imperialism, as well as the tools for the critique of biological determinist justifications for the existing structures of power. This anthology pays tribute to Levins by carrying forward his work in the development of the understanding of the dialectics of nature and society.

Mission Hill Main Streets (MHMS) promotes revitalization of Mission Hill's commercial district: Roxbury Crossing to Brigham Circle, on Terrace Street and Parker Street, and Longwood Avenue to Back of the Hill/South Huntington. www.missionhillmainstreets.org website list most local Mission Hill businesses and institutions. Board membership includes residents, institutional representatives from universities, hospitals, and professional schools; representative members of business community members. Boston Main Streets has numerous neighborhood 'Main Streets' organizations; MHMS represents the operational attractiveness, safety, viability, and other interests of small and other businesses in Mission Hill neighborhood and tidies the neighborhood for 'Boston Shines' cleanup, and decorates seasonally (including music, flags, banners, celebrity visits, wreaths, ribbons, etc.).Mission Hill Main Streets strives to maintain neighborhood feeling in its commercial district, where property owners, business owners, and residents take pride in the appearance of their buildings, stores, and homes. MHMS strives to create a physically and psychologically attractive, health-supporting, useful, and strategically integrated (with the neighborhood) commercial streetscape that houses a broad business mix (not merely food servers), where a welcoming streetscape features attractive and creative architecture.What's Happening on Main Street, a monthly column in the Mission Hill Gazette, updates readers on the activities of MHMS and local businesses.My goal is to integrate the efforts of MHMS with the deeper and most worthy goals of Mission Hill Main Streets and to maintain the MHMS website in a timely, effective, and attractive manner, integrating the resources and interests of Mission Hill residents and those who use the region for employment, medical services, education, edification, meeting friends, doing business and collaborating in science and politics, and recreation.

In the course of doing my work, I skimmed or read many medical journal articles daily/weekly, conducted research, and helped edit Dr. Eisenberg's speeches, chapters, and articles.I developed and edited Dr. Eisenberg's Wikipedia page [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Eisenberg], and after Dr. Eisenberg's passing in mid-September 2009, I scanned and electronically archived ALL (bu 11 of his) 62+ years of refereed publications (nearly 1000 journal and encyclopedia articles, and book chapters).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Martin_Hammer Administrative and clerical work for Michael Martin Hammer (13 April 1948 – 3 Sept 2008), an American engineer, management author, and a former professor of computer science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), known as one of the founders of the management theory of Business process reengineering (BPR). He is well known for his books: Reengineering the Corporation: A manifesto for Business Revolution (1993), which Hammer he co-authored with James A. Champy, was instrumental in capturing the focus of business community towards Business Process Reengineering (BPR). 2.5 million copies of the book were sold, and the book remained on the New York Times Best Seller list for more than a year; The Reengineering Revolution (1995); Beyond Reengineering (1996); The Agenda (2001); Faster, Cheaper, Better (2010), co-authored with Lisa Hershman.

At the height of my involvement with the Great American Meatout, FARM's most famous and at that time most successful vegetarian and animal rights educational outreach effort, I recruited volunteer coordinators for over a thousand North American outreach events (including every state of the USA, every province in Canada, and several Mexican states - and in several languages), where previously only several hundred local educational events had been held, mostly on the East Coast of the USA. By emphasizing the ecological impact of animal agriculture, I also provided a seamless integration with EarthDay events worldwide and paved the way for GAMO to "go intercontinental" (we were already international because of Canadian involvement).I continued at a volunteer level with FARM after scaling back my involvement as an employee.

Worked in Space Planning and Management as the Space Planning Analyst. During my first week I discovered the 1993 Hancock Tower fire (yes, a REAL fire!)and reported it, which led to building-wide evacuation of the tallest building in New England. As SPA I tracked the use of all building spaces across all corporate properties, which changed constantly because of corporate resizing, following the introduction of corporate restructuring themes, and I issued periodic reports (developed from DBase 3) to management - daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually, and annually.Later in Executive Training I prepped all executive resumes and workshops.

Made three winning suggestions to The Hancock IDEA Center.

I served John Hancock Financial Services as Space Planning Analyst from 1992-1993, tracking all real estate space allocations and re-allocations during its rightsizing operations in shadow of 'reinventing the corporation' and outsourcing central functions. While Microsoft launched repeated Windows upgrades, in-house architects used CAD to model everything officially in the spaces.At this time, during my second day on the job, I discovered an electrical fire in the tower, which was evacuated and left vacant for that day and two more days.Then I served as Secretary in Executive Training, revising all managerial resumes using very ancient software, which I learned and mastered in very short time.Then I served as Secretary in Actuarial Services (under Barbara Luddy) during the transition between defined benefits and defined contributions, where compliance with GAAP was crucial.During my time there I made THREE (3) winning suggestions to the Hancock IDEA Center, including a suggestion on OFFERING evidence-based low-fat plant-based diets to Hancock-insured heart attack victims (to prevent recurrence and to save money for the insurer). Mutual of Omaha scooped the idea before Hancock could adopt and announce it first, and I headed to the vegetarian conference.

Since its inception in 1984, the The TIMI (Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction) Study Group has been an Academic Research Organization dedicated to advancing the knowledge and care of patients suffering from cardiovascular disease. We have led a wide array of trials, from phase I to phase IV, enrolling from less than 30 to more than 26,000 subjects, and with both industry and NIH support. Trials have been conducted in over 50 countries and at more than 5000 separate sites. the oldest cardiovascular Academic Research Organization (ARO) in North AmericaTIMI investigate a broad array of therapeutic interventions in individuals across the spectrum of cardiovascular disease, ranging from prevention in those with risk factors, to emergent interventions in those with acute manifestations of disease. In addition, TIMI's large database of clinical findings, biomarkers, and genotypes is used to enhance the understanding of cardiovascular disease and its risk factors.By leading large-scale, international, randomized controlled trials of novel therapeutics and performing sophisticated analyses, TIMI helped define the practice of cardiovascular medicine for this past quarter of a century.I worked with TIMI at the 350 Longwood Avenue location inside LMA supporting Dr. Braunwald and his teams overseeing multicentered clinical trials of anticoagulants.Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Score https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/2172627-overviewTIMI website: http://www.TIMI.orgWikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIMILinkedIn TIMI website: https://www.linkedin.com/company/timi-study-group/about/

The Ordinance was the widest-reaching local oversight on animal research to date.▪ Development of the Ordinance involved meetings with City Councilors and the Director and President and other staff of CCRR.

I served several periods of service at either Coopers & Lybrand or Price Waterhouse, or at PricewaterhouseCoopers (after the merger). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PricewaterhouseCoopersAn early Coopers & Lybrand stint was involved in various accounting projects related to C&L private clients, including a very early wind farm, which inspired me to consider financial services as a window to innovated infrastructure changes in the economy and society.One interesting role was the periodic audit of Boston University (was this involved twice with this?).

The very FIRST vegetarian group I founded (during the 1970s) was called VINES: Vegetarians In New Energy Sources, and brought together vegetarians working on solar energy storage, alternative fuels and heating/cooling, and the like. VINES was listed in several directories and vegetarian newspapers and also in the Boston Phoenix and Boston Real Paper, which did an interview with me and an article about VINES and The Vegetarian Hotline, which ran briefly from around 1979-1981.The VINES stationery showed at the top of the page grapevines entwined around the word VINES,VINES brought to the United States the General Secretary of the International Vegetarian Union, Maxwell Lee, who spoke on different reasons for being vegetarian, though he had been asked to speak on demographics and urban geography (his field() as applied to his observations of vegetarians around the UK, Europe, and the world (particularly India and Asia, where he had traveled). He chose to give a 30-minute canned talk, after which no one had any questions. So much for personally rented an expensive lecture hall.https://www.linkedin.com/company/vegetarians-in-new-energy-sources-vines/VINES was superseded by The Seekers, which quickly morphed into The Boston Vegetarian Society. http://www.BostonVeg.org

Served very briefly in the office of the new administration of Harvard alum (B.A. in 1964, and a D.Ed. in 1974) Dr. Daniel Sargent Cheever, Jr., (1983-1991), who was the tenth President of Wheelock College. Before serving in the Wheelock Presidency, Cheever served as the Superintendent of Schools in Lincoln, MA.Cheever focused on modernizing governance and administration, restoring the College's financial health, renovating and expanding facilities, supporting diversity in staff, faculty, and student recruitment, and creating confidence in the College. Highlights of his tenure include a successful capital campaign, a joyous Centennial celebration, the construction of One Palace Road and a new library, and plans for a new School of Management building on the main campus. Dr. Cheever presided over Wheelock's 100th anniversary celebration in 1989 before his 1991 retirement.In 2017, Wheelock College agreed to enter into formal discussions with Boston University with the goal of merging Wheelock with BU. The two schools agreed to merge by June 1, 2018.https://www.marketscreener.com/business-leaders/Daniel-Cheever-0B7F5Y-E/biography/

Supported Vice Presidents and business and technical teams during the early development of discount brokerage, ATMs, and Fidelity's transaction processing systems, the technical backbone of all online transactions - including investment and account updates, and a series of major organizational changes in which Fidelity Data Services was spun off by SVP Jack Nealon to write the DBMS that implemented historic changes in the scale of discount brokerage systems.Later, I returned to Fidelity and worked with their business proect to rewrite their back-end transaction processing system that FDS had set up. That unit was called FTPS - the Fidelity Transaction Processing System - used in every online and phone-in and mail-in business transaction.

Supported Vice Presidents, department managers, programmers, systems analysts, et al. with reports, correspondence, supplies, communications, data gathering, system input. Maintained departmental libraries for FIS, FBSI, SAS. The transaction processing system developed while I was at FDS stayed in place UNTIL I returned in late 2000 and worked with FTPS, the development of the new Fidelity Transaction Processing System, with a number of the same staffers, now senior staff, managers, or beyond.

Create values-centered moral education curriculum de novo with materials acquired with little budget, crafted around a broad, secular, cosmopolitan framework established by ESB member, Dr. Lawrence Kohnberg of Harvard's Graduate School of Education. Recruit, hire, train, and supervise moral education teachers; organize and defend to supervising Board the content and methods to illuminate various ages of Society's members' children re: nature and meaning of broad and deep topics of ethics, morality, values, social experience, social history, and the array of social sciences (economics, history, anthropology of religion, psychology, sociology). Our bold, courageous plan to prepare youth to think creatively, individually, and effectively about the great issues addressed by received moral traditions called religions, left questions open for inductive learning AND ongoing research into their depth and legitimacy.

Before soy yogurt became widely available, while I was still a believer in the lacto-vegetarian diet before my days as a vegan, I was assistant store manager for Yogurt Yes, a 3-store chain headquartered in a toney and progressive suburb just outside NYC; my store was in Boston's busy Downtown Crossing area, across from Filene's and Jordan Marsh, once-very busy department store chains headquartered in Boston (those were the signature home stores across the street from us) that no longer exist..As I had done in a number of chain restaurants, I ordered food and supplies, hired and managed staff, vendors, and contractors (including cleaning and maintenance services), did payroll and marketing/publicity, and did overall troubleshooting.Through the VRC, I have since attempted to "Make Connections for Plant-Based Diets" in ways which includes but is not limited to foodservice, which includes a vegetarian vision of the entire food supply chain and nutritional or nutrient "columns".If YY had continued, I would be concerned with replacing animal-based dairy with plant-based 'plantmilk dairy' products.

Counseled adult residents and inpatients in my role as a low-threat religious counselor, which enabled our building of deeper relationships of trust, encouragement, and support.

Curriculum development, religious and moral education (with a strong philosophical and scientific flavor) for junior and senior high school students; produce congregation's newsletter (collect contributions, re-type, do total paste up, make copies, maintain mailing list in pre-computer era, and send out newsletter).I brought guest speakers from the sciences and the professions to address my young people's classes on key topics of modernity as ethics, critical thinking, and the faiths in general tend to ask them: health and the quality of life, what is faith, do denominations and their faiths and peoples always think the same way about issues if they stay around in the congregations, what about the marginalized in society, how and why do advantaged and high-performing professionals bend their strategic energies towards social betterment if it costs them personally to do so, etc.?I reviewed several books in scholarly journals, served as Religious Education Director in a local congregation, where I developed curriculum materials for the junior and senior high school students ("What in heaven's name is religion?" was the theme, in which pre-college students were introduced to the diversity that IS America's ocean of spiritualities) and as the congregation's Newsletter Editor. I also started with MY own books the congregation's first religious education library. I was sent on to Harvard Divinity School.

As store manager in a number of chain restaurants, I ordered food and supplies, hired and managed staff, vendors, and contractors (including cleaning and maintenance services), did payroll and marketing/publicity, and did overall troubleshooting.I left this to attend graduate school at Harvard, where I became vegetarian. I explored restaurant management again several times as a vegetarian in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but abandoned that for a stint in financial services.Although I had an intermittent culinary career which included institutional and hotel food service, without being a vegetarian pathbreaker in this area, I couldn't forge a visionary future in vegetarian food services, as others have since done.Through the VRC, I have since attempted to "Make Connections for Plant-Based Diets" in ways which includes but is not limited to foodservice, which includes a vegetarian vision of the entire food supply chain and nutritional or nutrient "columns".

While representing 2-engine vacuum cleaning systems to homeowners, we often explored together our worldviewish assumptions and commitments to continual development of our critical thinking skills. Often eagerly introduced to homeowners friends and family members.Electrolux Group, a global appliance company, is three years ahead of its plan to achieve a science-based climate target.According to the Electrolux Group Sustainability Report 2022, the company reduced its absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG gas emissions (direct and indirect in operations) by 82% compared to 2015, going beyond its 2025 target of 80%. Scope 3 emissions (when products are in use) also decreased by >25% compared to 2015, which is in line with the company's reduction target by 2025. "We were among the first 100 companies to set a global ambitious climate target – and now we are among the very first companies to meet it. As a leader in sustainability, we have a responsibility to show what is possible and this result does just that," said Jonas Samuelson, Electrolux Group CEO.The report features additional highlights: the company ensured that 98% of electricity used in its global operations came from renewable sources, it transported 35% of ocean cargo with more sustainable fuels, and it used innovation to drive sustainability breakthroughs, such as its first vacuum cleaner without paint to reduce chemical use, energy, and material impact.It's encouraging to see companies' meaningful steps towards reducing harmful environmental impact and building a more sustainable future. Consumers can support such companies in their consumption and encouraging friends and family to do so.During my involvement, Electrolux was owned by White Pail, a home cleaning products company.
