Nina Braunwald: A Female Pioneer In Cardiac Surgery, Nikhil Sabharwal, Harmanjit Dev, Hassiba Smail, David C Mcgiffin, Pankaj Saxena

The Texas Heart Institute Journal

Nina Starr Braunwald, the first female cardiac surgeon, made headlines during a time when almost all specialty surgeons were men.

Women have typically been deterred from entering surgical specialties, in part because of their traditional dual burden of managing their households and careers. Instead, female medical students and junior doctors have tended to be more attracted to medical specialties. This was the reality during Dr. Braunwald's venture into medicine in 1949. However, she never allowed negative ideas to keep her from joining a surgical training program.

Under the mentorship of the prominent cardiac surgeons Charles Hufnagel and Andrew Morrow, Dr. …

Remembering Negdels: Nostalgia, Memory & Soviet-Era Herding Collectives, Maya Sutton-Smith

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

During the socialist period Mongolia’s nomadic herders were grouped into collective herding units called negdels. Today, over twenty years after Mongolia transitioned to democracy, herding has been privatized completely and negdels are a distant memory. This study explores the history of negdels by conducting twenty-five oral interviews with herders about their memories of collective herding. This study focuses on a soum in the Mongolian countryside, Bayandelger, while also incorporating interviews with people from Ulaanbaatar. Bayandelger is a unique location for this project because it was selected by the Soviets to receive assistance in an effort to make it a model …

Lights On The Nile, Abigail Packard

Children's Book and Media Review

Along the way Kepi herself is kidnapped, faces many dangers, meets new friends in the capital city, and eventually finds herself face to face with Pharaoh Khufu—the pharaoh who commissioned the pyramid that Kepi’s father was injured while building. Kepi fails …

"Yo Creo Que Terminé Todas Mis Guerras": Friendship And Politics Between Jews And Non-Jews In Jeanine Meerapfel's El Amigo Alemán, Stephanie Pridgeon

All Faculty Scholarship

This article analyzes Jeanine Meerapfel's 2012 film El amigo alemán (coproduced in Germany and Argentina) and focuses on the tensions between friendship, religion, and politics in the protagonists' forty-year friendship. Using Carl Schmitt's categories of friendship and enmity vis-à-vis politics, we see that friendship facilitates political identities yet, paradoxically, political identities can ultimately impede friendship. This study focuses on Meerapfel's film's representation of post-World War II Argentina, the 1968 student movements in Europe, and (post-)dictatorial Argentina as key moments in twentieth-century politics in which the film's characters must grapple with their own identities and political participation. These processes are encumbered …
