    The widespread impact of COVID-19 has been particularly felt in deeply divided, fragile, conflict-prone, or at-risk societies. The pandemic, and its potential to serve as a trigger for mass violence, makes our shared work of atrocity prevention more urgent than ever. Dr. James Waller is the Cohen Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Keene State College, Director of Academic Programs for the Auschwitz Institute for the Prevention of Genocide and Mass Atrocities, and the author of six books. A part of the Holocaust Center for Humanity\u27s Lunch and Learn program. This event was sponsored by: The Henry M. Jackson Foundation | The Ray Wolpow Institute for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Crimes Against Humanity at Western Washington University | Washington State University History Department | Humanities Alliance at Everett Community College | Temple B\u27nai Torah | Temple De Hirsch Sinai | Temple Beth Shalom | Jconnect Seattle | Moishe House Seattl

    Lore Lizbeth Waller, 2003The photographer Lore Lizbeth Waller was born in 1918 in Vienna, Austria. She attended the prestigious “Schwarzwaldschule” and studied photography in Vienna. After the Anschluss to Nazi Germany in 1938 Lore moved with her mother and younger sister to their relatives in Czechoslowakia. With the help of her mother’s friend she was able to obtain a permit as a domestic servant in England. She left for England in March of 1939. After the war she worked for the Civil Censorship Division (CCD) in post-war Germany and got a position as a photographer for “Stars and Stripes”. In 1952 she moved with her husband to the United States. The author lives in California.Austrian Heritage CollectionSee also Lore Waller's memoirs "View from a Distance" in the LBI library (DS 135 A93 W35 1993

    Bilateral and unilateral arm training improve motor function through differing neuroplastic mechanisms: a single-blinded randomized controlled trial

    BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This randomized controlled trial tests the efficacy of bilateral arm training with rhythmic auditory cueing (BATRAC) versus dose-matched therapeutic exercises (DMTEs) on upper-extremity (UE) function in stroke survivors and uses functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine effects on cortical reorganization. METHODS: A total of 111 adults with chronic UE paresis were randomized to 6 weeks (3×/week) of BATRAC or DMTE. Primary end points of UE assessments of Fugl-Meyer UE Test (FM) and modified Wolf Motor Function Test Time (WT) were performed 6 weeks prior to and at baseline, after training, and 4 months later. Pretraining and posttraining, fMRI for UE movement was evaluated in 17 BATRAC and 21 DMTE participants. RESULTS: The improvements in UE function (BATRAC: FM Δ = 1.1 + 0.5, P = .03; WT Δ = -2.6 + 0.8, P < .00; DMTE: FM Δ = 1.9 + 0.4, P < .00; WT Δ = -1.6 + 0.7; P = .04) were comparable between groups and retained after 4 months. Satisfaction was higher after BATRAC than DMTE (P = .003). BATRAC led to significantly higher increase in activation in ipsilesional precentral, anterior cingulate and postcentral gyri, and supplementary motor area and contralesional superior frontal gyrus (P < .05). Activation change in the latter was correlated with improvement in the WMFT (P = .01). CONCLUSIONS: BATRAC is not superior to DMTE, but both rehabilitation programs durably improve motor function for individuals with chronic UE hemiparesis and with varied deficit severity. Adaptations in brain activation are greater after BATRAC than DMTE, suggesting that given similar benefits to motor function, these therapies operate through different mechanisms
