SUMMARY:Visiting Writer: Nicky Beer
DESCRIPTION:Nicky Beer visits UWM as part of the Creative Writing program’s visiting writer series. \nCraft Talk @ 3 pm – to livestream: https://tinyurl.com/47xam2et \nReading @ 7 pm – to livestream: https://tinyurl.com/mr3tdhx7 \nNicky is a bi/queer writer\, and the author of Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes (Milkweed\, 2022)\, winner of the 2023 Lambda Literary Award for Bisexual Poetry. She has received honors from the Guggenheim Foundation\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, MacDowell\, the Poetry Foundation\, and the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference. She has also led workshops\, craft classes\, and craft talks for the Indiana University Writers’ Conference\, the Minnesota Northwoods\nWriters Conference\, the Yale Young Writers’ Workshop\, and more. She is an associate professor at the University of Colorado Denver\, where she is a poetry editor for Copper Nickel. \nHer latest book of poems is “Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes.”\nWhat is illusion—a deception\, or a revelation? What is a poem—the truth\, or “a diverting flash\, / a mirror showing everything / but itself”?\nNicky Beer’s latest collection of poems is a labyrinthine academy specializing in the study of subterfuge; Marlene Dietrich\, Dolly Parton\, and Batman are its instructors. With an energetic eye\, she thumbs through our collective history books—and her personal one\, too—in an effort to chart the line between playful forms of duplicity and those that are far more insidious. \nThrough delicious japery\, poems that can be read multiple ways\, and allusions ranging from Puccini’s operas to Law & Order\, Beer troubles the notion of truth. Often\, we settle for whatever brand of honesty is convenient for us\, or whatever is least likely to spark confrontation—but this\, Beer knows\, is how we invite others to weigh in on what kind of person we are. This is how we trick ourselves into believing they’re right. “Listen / to how quiet it is when I lose the self-doubt played / for so long I mistook it for music.” \n“Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes” asks us to look through the stereoscope: which image is the real one? This one—or this one\, just here? With wisdom\, humility\, and a forthright tenderness\, Nicky Beer suggests that we consider both—together\, they might contribute to something like truth.

She is an associate professor at the University of Colorado Denver\, where she is a poetry editor for Copper Nickel. \nHer latest book of poems is “Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes.”\nWhat is illusion—a deception\, or a revelation? What is a poem—the truth\, or “a diverting flash\, / a mirror showing everything / but itself”?\nNicky Beer’s latest collection of poems is a labyrinthine academy specializing in the study of subterfuge; Marlene Dietrich\, Dolly Parton\, and Batman are its instructors. With an energetic eye\, she thumbs through our collective history books—and her personal one\, too—in an effort to chart the line between playful forms of duplicity and those that are far more insidious. \nThrough delicious japery\, poems that can be read multiple ways\, and allusions ranging from Puccini’s operas to Law & Order\, Beer troubles the notion of truth. Often\, we settle for whatever brand of honesty is convenient for us\, or whatever is least likely to spark confrontation—but this\, Beer knows\, is how we invite others to weigh in on what kind of person we are. This is how we trick ourselves into believing they’re right. “Listen / to how quiet it is when I lose the self-doubt played / for so long I mistook it for music.” \n“Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes” asks us to look through the stereoscope: which image is the real one? This one—or this one\, just here? With wisdom\, humility\, and a forthright tenderness\, Nicky Beer suggests that we consider both—together\, they might contribute to something like truth.

SUMMARY:Spatiotemporal analysis of lung cancer disparity in Wisconsin\, USA
DESCRIPTION:Thesis presentation of Mathew Ugwuanyi: Studies over the United States has shown that disparity still exists in lung cancer mortality. Such disparity has been greatly attributed to several risk factors such as genetics\, socio-economic status\, comorbidities\, amongst others. Primarily\, this study aims to examine spatiotemporal variation in lung cancer mortality rates in the State of Wisconsin\, U.S.A. The study also seeks to explore the relationship between socio-economic\, environmental variables and lung cancer mortality. For this study\, lung cancer mortality county level data from the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC) and\, the National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance\, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)\, which is aggregated and age-adjusted according to the 2000 U.S standard million population were used. Also\, county level socio-economic data like education attainment\, median household income\, unemployment and PM 2.5 data were gathered from the American Community Survey (ACS) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) respectively. Scan statistics (SaTScan) will be used to analyze the spatiotemporal pattern of mortality clusters. In addition\, regression analysis will be used to assess statistical significance and measure the relationship between lung cancer mortality and county level socio-economic and environmental factors in Wisconsin. This study hopes to show potential cluster patterns in lung cancer mortality in the study area\, which might suggest uneven spatial temporal mortality risk. Also\, through findings\, we hope to suggest interventions to help ameliorate lung cancer mortality.
