A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Consisting of three display cases (two located in Rare Books &amp; Special Collections, a third in Lam Square), the exhibit is a joint collaboration between Professor Melanie Chambliss's Spring 2026 History class "Harlem and Black Chicago Renaissances" and Professor Matthew Omelsky's Spring 2026 English class "Introduction to African American Literature.” Curation was overseen by Autumn Haag, Assistant Director of Outreach, Rare Books &amp; Special Collections. The three display cases feature short essays written by members of both classes. </p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Just as immigrants from various countries travel great distances in hopes of calling a new country home, our medical learners also undertake great journeys. For some, their trips might involve geographic treks; however, all will undertake great private journeys across any number of terrains in the name of professional identity formation. In this session, we will consider professional identity formation as a form of immigration. Through this framing, we will consider the deeply personal—and sometimes painful—work that is involved in taking on the responsibilities of the white coat.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Learning Objectives:
<br>After attending this presentation, participants will be able to: 
<br>    1. Understand professional identity formation (PIF) as a personal and social process;
<br>    2. Describe the reasons why, for many, PIF is a transformative process that begins well before matriculation;
<br>    3. Recognize the dangers of PIF that have been reported in the literature; and
<br>    4. Describe how recognizing PIF as subjectification can help address the dangers of the PIF immigration journey.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>A light lunch will be provided.</p>

When feedback is given effectively, the receiver is more likely to listen and make changes. This course will help participants learn why the way we deliver feedback is important, how to deliver a message so others will hear it, and how to graciously accept feedback we receive. Whether feedback is formal or informal, and whether it is provided to supervisors or peers, there are ways to structure it to be effective and lasting.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives.

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

<br>Don’t Go It Alone: Collaborating with Interdisciplinary Stakeholders and Allies to Tackle Challenges in Health Professions Education
<br>Sarah E.A. McConnell, PhD; Martha J. Gdowski, PhD</p>

<p> </p>

<p>This workshop will explore the challenges and inertial barriers of identifying and solving problems in medical education with a goal of developing strategies for supporting trainees throughout their longitudinal training. As an example, we will share the process of creating a series of brief video modules on academic and professional skills for Phase 1 medical students at the University of Rochester Medical School, emphasizing the stakeholders and allies we identified and how we engaged with them, and the specific benefits and outcomes that resulted from these collaborative efforts. We will also signpost potential opportunities to apply these principles across the continuum of medical education and health professions. Participants will be invited to reflect on unsolved challenges in their own work and to engage in cycles of prompted individual thought and small- and large-group discussion to identify challenges, design solutions, share ideas, and reflect on insights. </p>

<p>Learning Objectives:
<br>At the end of this activity, participants will be able to:</p>

<p>     1. Identify key challenges in their missions</p>

<p>     2. Design workable solutions to address these challenges</p>

<p>     3. Identify and engage relevant interdisciplinary stakeholders and allies</p>

<p> </p>

This year, Reel Mind turns its focus to dementia through three films and conversations that explore memory, caregiving, and the shifting sense of self that comes with cognitive change. These are experiences often lived quietly, the program brings them into a shared space for reflection and dialogue.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>The film documents a worldwide journey taken by Teun and his friend, filmmaker Jonathan de Jong. Together, they explore how different cultures and countries provide care for people living with dementia, aiming to find ways to make the future more beautiful and inclusive for them. FILM WILL BE FOLLOWED BY A PANEL DISCUSSION.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present.

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

<p>Discover how Texas A&amp;M and Phillips North leveraged the MyCap Mobile App in the Persistent Readiness Through Early Prediction (PREP) study. To assess vaccine-mediated immune responses in healthy adults after receiving the Typhim Vi and PPSV23 vaccines, 210 individuals were tasked with completing daily questionnaires via MyCap, uploading facial photographs, and recording scripted audio clips for staff review in this study. Following the study team’s presentation of their use case, the MyCap team will also share updates on new app features, app growth milestones, and insights into other published use cases.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression.

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Highlighting three significant prints—Portrait of a Young Woman after Cranach the Younger II, Pique II, and Bacchanal with Kid Goat and Onlooker—along with their various proofs, Picasso and the Progressive Proof: Linocuts from a Private Collection is an intimate exhibition that reveals how these works and subjects developed in the latter part of his career and his groundbreaking contributions to the medium.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

In Chapter 2 we look at applications to signal recovery. Given a function $f:\mathbb{Z}_N \to \mathbb{C}$ (the ``signal'') such that for some $M \subset \mathbb{Z}_N$, $\{f(x)\}_{x \in M}$ is unknown, we study under what conditions the signal can be (approximately) recovered and mechanisms for said recovery. In this chapter, we study this with respect to approximate sparsity of the Fourier transform of $f$.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>In Chapter3 we study this with respect to a generalization of the Fourier ratio. In particular, we generalize the Fourier ratio with respect to arbitrary orthonormal bases. We also connect the Fourier ratio to Kolmogorov complexity.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Finally, in Chapter 4, we look at applications of fractal geometry to dimensionality detection. We show that the discrete Riesz energy can be used to estimate the continuous Riesz energy of a measure, $\mu$, given a sequence of points, $\{x_{i}\}_{i = 1}^{\infty}$, where the points, in certain ways, increasingly represent $\mu$. We will also apply to this to extend connections between Erd\H{o}s and Falconer distance type problems.</p>

From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives.

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Miner Library</title><description><![CDATA[<p>This exhibit explores the development of Western medical illustration from the sixteenth century through the present. From the recorded teachings of Galen to modern medical textbooks, we track the use of medical illustration as an educational tool as well as a means of artistic expression. Rochester’s connection to the lineage of twentieth-century century American medical illustration is highlighted through the work of artists such as Natt C. Jacobs and Robert Wabnitz.</p>

<p>The items on display in this exhibit come from the collections of the History of Medicine Section at Edward G. Miner Library as well as the RIT Archives. They are complemented by a library atrium display of work from graduating undergraduate students and MFA candidates studying medical illustration at RIT.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

Screens are offered at SMH, Mondays in room 7.2223a and various rooms on Fridays listed on sign-up.  We will create a customized musculoskeletal profile for you, we will help you identify limitations/impairments, discuss exercise habits and we can compare your year-over-year results. </p>

<p>The screen combines an electronic questionnaire with a 3D video movement analysis.  We build an individualized profile for each participant and review it line by line.  If impairments are identified, you may be eligible to work with our team of physical therapists and athletic trainers for 11 FREE sessions at one of our outpatient clinics.</p>

<p>If Mondays and Fridays do not work or you prefer our team comes to your work area to complete screens for you and your coworkers, please email Chuck at <a href="mailto:Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu">Charles_Dagostino@URMC.Rochester.edu</a> or visit our webpage at <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/">https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/orthopaedics/employee-ortho-health/</a>.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

In comtemporary New York City, the Endangered Language Alliance (ELA) has mapped over 700 of those languages, including many that are indigenous, primarily oral, and little documented. Driven by new forms of mobility, migration, and the diasporization of nearly every ethnolinguistic group, many other diverse cities around the world are not far behind. In this talk, Ross Perlin, ELA’s co-director and author of the recent book Language City, will describe New York's complex linguistic history and ELA’s efforts over the last 15 years, before panning out to discuss the impact of migration, diaspora, and multilingualism on urban linguistic diversity more generally, with a range of political, economic, social, and cultural implications.</p>

<p>About the speaker:</p>

<p>Ross Perlin, Lecturer, Department of Slavic Languages, Columbia University, is co-director of the Endangered Language Alliance (ELA), a non-profit research institute focused on documenting and supporting endangered languages in New York City and beyond. At ELA since 2013, he directed the creation of the Languages of New York City map (<a href="http://www.languagemap.nyc">www.languagemap.nyc</a>) and has managed a variety of projects focused on language documentation, language policy, and public programming around urban linguistic diversity. Himalayan languages are a research focus — for his PhD in Linguistics at the University of Bern, Ross created a trilingual dictionary, a corpus of recordings, and a descriptive grammar of Trung, an endangered language of southwest China, based on several years of fieldwork. Ross has a BA from Stanford, an M.Phil. from Cambridge, and an MA from the University of London (SOAS). Ross is also a writer and translator, whose work has appeared in the New York Times, The Guardian, Harper's, The Atlantic, and elsewhere. His most recent book is Language City: The Fight to Preserve Endangered Mother Tongues in New York, published in 2024 by Grove.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

<p>In 1901, Lizzie Black Kander put together a cookbook based on the classes she taught at the Milwaukee Jewish Mission. “I was trying to teach a group of young foreign girls in a crowded neighborhood how to cook simple and nutritious food, yet have it attractive and inexpensive as we prepare it in America,” she recalled. The Settlement Cook Book would go on to be the most successful charitable cookbook in American history, remaining a best-seller into the 1970s. Despite including nonkosher recipes, it became a mainstay in Jewish kitchens and an enduring touchstone of Jewish American culture.</p>

<p>Recipes for the Melting Pot tells the remarkable story of The Settlement Cook Book, demonstrating how it shaped Jewish American identity—and was in turn shaped by generations of Jewish women. Nora L. Rubel traces the cookbook’s evolution across forty editions over several decades, through waves of immigration, shifting gender roles, upward mobility, suburbanization, and rapid changes in Jewish life. She argues that the book celebrates pluralism, allowing it to serve at once as a tool for Americanization, a repository of tradition, and a platform for culinary innovation. Ultimately, The Settlement Cook Book is a record of American Jewish women’s history, told through the food they made and the lives they led. A cultural biography of an iconic cookbook, this lively and inviting book shares an inclusive vision of American cuisine.</p>

<p>About the Author</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives.

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

<p>Developed by physicians. This workshop, developed by physicians to help medical practitioners and educators respond to the erosion of joy in their work, provides an experiential and interactive learning environment.

With more than 150 album credits as a sideman, John has recorded with a wide variety of artists such as Charlie Hunter, Robert Glasper, Darcy James Argue, Helen Sung, Kendrick Scott Oracle, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and Sting.  John was the 2nd place winner of the prestigious Thelonious Monk Saxophone Competition in 2002, he was the recipient of three composition grants through The Jazz Gallery for the creation of new work (“Dreamscapes”, “The Ice Siren”, and “MOBRO”) and he was selected as the 2014 Make Jazz Fellow by the 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica.  John has released fourteen albums as a leader, three of those featuring his New Orleans-centered band Double-Wide, which has toured extensively and was featured on the Main Stage of the 2012 Newport Jazz Festival. He co-produced the music for the children’s book series “Baby Loves Jazz” with Aaron Goldberg, and he wrote the theme music for the NPR podcast, “Rough Translation.” His latest album, “Bizet: Carmen in Jazz”, was released on Blue Room Music in December of 2023 and features Reuben Rogers, Gary Versace, and Jason Marsalis.</p>

With more than 150 album credits as a sideman, John has recorded with a wide variety of artists such as Charlie Hunter, Robert Glasper, Darcy James Argue, Helen Sung, Kendrick Scott Oracle, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and Sting.  John was the 2nd place winner of the prestigious Thelonious Monk Saxophone Competition in 2002, he was the recipient of three composition grants through The Jazz Gallery for the creation of new work (“Dreamscapes”, “The Ice Siren”, and “MOBRO”) and he was selected as the 2014 Make Jazz Fellow by the 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica.  John has released fourteen albums as a leader, three of those featuring his New Orleans-centered band Double-Wide, which has toured extensively and was featured on the Main Stage of the 2012 Newport Jazz Festival. He co-produced the music for the children’s book series “Baby Loves Jazz” with Aaron Goldberg, and he wrote the theme music for the NPR podcast, “Rough Translation.” His latest album, “Bizet: Carmen in Jazz”, was released on Blue Room Music in December of 2023 and features Reuben Rogers, Gary Versace, and Jason Marsalis.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present.

A table laden with ripe fruit, a meal served up at a luncheonette, the inside of a medicine cabinet—ordinary materials around us chronicle our lives. The still life, a genre of art that dates back to the ancient world, captures those objects of everyday life while often conveying deeper meanings and hidden messages.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present.

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

<p>As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Desire and Abundance features a selection from MAG’s collection of American still lifes, spanning from the 1800s to the present. Taken together, these artworks present an array of items that underscore shifting tastes in American art, commerce, and daily life.</p>

<p>John Ellis is one of New York’s premiere tenor saxophone voices. With more than 150 album credits as a sideman, John has recorded with a wide variety of artists such as Charlie Hunter, Robert Glasper, Darcy James Argue, Helen Sung, Kendrick Scott Oracle, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and Sting.  John was the 2nd place winner of the prestigious Thelonious Monk Saxophone Competition in 2002, he was the recipient of three composition grants through The Jazz Gallery for the creation of new work (“Dreamscapes”, “The Ice Siren”, and “MOBRO”) and he was selected as the 2014 Make Jazz Fellow by the 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica.  John has released fourteen albums as a leader, three of those featuring his New Orleans-centered band Double-Wide, which has toured extensively and was featured on the Main Stage of the 2012 Newport Jazz Festival. He co-produced the music for the children’s book series “Baby Loves Jazz” with Aaron Goldberg, and he wrote the theme music for the NPR podcast, “Rough Translation.” His latest album, “Bizet: Carmen in Jazz”, was released on Blue Room Music in December of 2023 and features Reuben Rogers, Gary Versace, and Jason Marsalis.</p>

<p>This ad hoc ensemble presents a variety of repertoire once per semester by composers and band leaders such as the Gerry Mulligan Concert Jazz Band, Miles Davis Birth of the Cool, Marty Paich/Art Pepper + Eleven, Boyd Reaburn/George Handy, Gil Evans etc. The ensemble is led by various faculty members and is by assignment.</p>
