Interview with Frances Patton Statham - OH 647
No full textFrances Patton Statham (1931-2020) was born in Catawba, South Carolina to Ernest Boyd & Kathleen Patton. She attended Winthrop College and graduated with a B.S. degree in 1951. The next year on June 28 Frances married Dr. George Wilkes Statham. Continuing her education, Mrs. Statham attended the University of Georgia and received a M.F.A in 1970. Frances also studied at the Royal Conservatory in Canada and with tenor Ralph Errolle. In November of 1976, France Patton Statham divorced her husband and moved to Atlanta, Georgia. Mrs. Statham has written several historical romances set in the south. In this interview, Mrs. Statham discusses the Winthrop College sextet, the changes in Winthrop since her time there, her work on the Winthrop College Foundation Board, her research in Europe for some of her novels (including Wings of Fire), “creative listening/looking” within her research process, her process for completing her novels, her latest novel To Face the Sun, the key to being a successful historical author, and the success of Wings of Fire.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/oralhistoryprogram/1706/thumbnail.jp
Interview: Interview with John Patton
No full text John is a biotechnologist and entrepreneur in the field of drug delivery, particularly inhalation and peptide, and protein delivery. Prior to founding Dance last year, he was co-founder of Inhale Therapeutics (now Nektar), where he served as Director, Head of Research and Chief Scientific Officer from 1990–2008. Before that he led the drug delivery group at Genentech (l985–1990), where he demonstrated the feasibility of systemic delivery of large molecules through the lungs. Prior to joining Genentech, Dr Patton was a tenured professor at the University of Georgia. Dr Patton received his PhD in marine biology from the University of California, San Diego, USA, and held post-doctoral positions in biomedicine at Harvard Medical School, USA, and the University of Lund, Sweden. He serves on scientific advisory boards for Penn State University, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Next Safety and Aridis Pharmaceuticals as well as the executive boards of Halozyme, Dance, Activaero and Pleiades Cardiotherapeutics. He is author or coauthor of over 100 publications and inventor or coinventor of over 38 patents. </jats:p
Incommensurability and the Bonfire of the Meta-Theories: Response to Mizrahi
No full textScientists working within a paradigm must play by the rules of the game of that paradigm in solving problems, and that is why incommensurability arises when the rules of the game change. If we deny the thesis of the priority of paradigms, then there is no good argument for the incommensurability of theories and thus for taxonomic incommensurability, because there is no invariant way to determine the set of results provable, puzzles solvable, and propositions cogently formulable under a given paradigm
Hilbert's objectivity
No full textAbstract
Detlefsen (1986) reads Hilbert's program as a sophisticated defense of instrumentalism, but Feferman (1998) has it that Hilbert's program leaves significant ontological questions unanswered. One such question is of the reference of individual number terms. Hilbert's use of admittedly “meaningless” signs for numbers and formulae appears to impair his ability to establish the reference of mathematical terms and the content of mathematical propositions (Weyl, 2009/1949 and Kitcher, 1976). The paper traces the history and context of Hilbert's reasoning about signs, which illuminates Hilbert's account of mathematical objectivity, axiomatics, idealization, and consistency.
Resumi
Detlefsen (1986) legge il programma di Hilbert come una sofisticata difesa dello strumentalismo, ma Feferman (1998) sostiene che il programma di Hilbert lascia senza risposta alcune significative questioni ontologiche. Una fra queste è il riferimento dei termini individuali numerici. L'impiego da parte di Hilbert di simboli per i numeri e formule per la matematica finistista esplicitamente “privi di senso,” sembra impedire la possibilitá di stabilire un riferimento per i termini matematici e un contenuto per le proposizioni (Weyl, 2009/1949 and Kitcher, 1976). Questo articolo ripercorre la storia e il contesto del pensiero di Hilbert concernente i simboli; tale contesto getta luce sulla concezione Hilbertiana dell'oggettivitá matematica
Elizabeth Patton, University of Maryland Baltimore County – The Home Office and Work-Life Balance
No full textOn University of Maryland Baltimore County Week: A healthy work-life balance can be difficult no matter where you apply your trade. Today on The Academic Minute: Elizabeth Patton, associate professor of media and communication studies, examines how we portray work/life balance at home. Elizabeth Patton is media historian interested in discourses of gender, race and class in the history of media, representations of urbanism and suburbanism in popular culture, and the impact of communication technologies on space and place. She is the author of Easy Living: The Rise of the Home Office (Rutgers University Press, 2020). She is the recipient of the 2023 National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship. Recent research can be found in edited volumes such as Media Crossroads: Intersections of Space and Identity in Screen Cultures (Duke University Press, 2021) and Race and the Suburbs in American Film (SUNY Press, 2021). She currently serves as managing co-editor of Mediapolis: A Journal of Cities and Culture.https://www.aacu.org/podcasts/academicminute/2023-09-elizabeth-patton-university-of-maryland-baltimore-county-the-home-office-and-work-life-balanc
