SUMMARY:RCGD Fall Seminar Series: Global Perspectives on Culture and Heal
 th (Lindsay Kobayashi)
DESCRIPTION:RCGD Fall 2026 Seminar Series: Global Perspectives on Culture
  & Health\, meets Mondays 3:30 to 5 at ISR Thompson 6050. Global Perspec
 tives on Culture and Health explores fundamental aspects of human life. 
 Culture facilitates human interaction by providing meaning to lived expe
 rience. Accounting for culture in both theories and methods potentially 
 advances the study of health by connecting the macro and micro levels of
  human experience. Yet\, culture should be understood as dynamic and com
 plex. It fundamentally shapes individuals and simultaneously is shaped b
 y individuals. The importance of systematically attending to culture inc
 ludes topics of values\, language\, immigration\, and society. Theories 
 and methods that incorporate culture hold great potential for advancing 
 the understanding of health outcomes and health trajectories in various 
 global contexts. The speakers for this series will focus on various aspe
 cts of culture and diverse groups living in the U.S. and across the glob
 e to address the ways in which attending to culture helps clarify and ov
 ercome challenges to good health. The Group Dynamics Seminar series is c
 onsidered one of the longest running seminar series in the social scienc
 es. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lew
 in in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on 
 a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Resear
 ch Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A ver
 y important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary natur
 e. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and hu
 man behavior\, and cultural psychology. In person: ISR Thompson 6050\, u
