to be more effective at work and advance your career?Then you need to
understand and apply the concept of “power” in the workplace. Power is
“the capacity or ability to direct or influence the behavior of others
or the course of events.” This fun and interactive workshop explores
surprising research findings, shares simple techniques to enhance your
power and teaches participants how to apply these techniques in all
aspects of life.<br><br>Sean is a former Lecturer in Marketing at the

a perplexing issue which warrants examination and discussion. Bringing
together scientists, industry and venture capital leaders, and
academics, this symposium will explore the divide between the large
number of women who pursue advanced degrees in related scientific fields
and their representation in leadership positions in biotech firms.
Speakers will also share new research, experimentation, and promising
models that may help industry, universities, government, and private
capital improve the current system. Join us to gain a deeper

Hacking Eating Tracking</b></span><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><b>When</b>: Friday - Sunday, September 18-20<br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><b>Where</b>: Harvard Northwest Building, Cambridge, MA<br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><b>Info</b>: <a href="http://www.hackingeatingtracking.org/get-involved/" target="_blank">link</a><br><br>Eating
behavior has a major influence on food intake, nutrition and overall
health, yet what we know and understand about it is still limited.
Importantly, most methods that we use nowadays to study how humans eat
are indirect and rely on self-report. <br><br>We want to bring together a
group of creative scientists and hackers to catalyze the development of
new ideas and disruptive solutions that can shape the future of the
collection and application of quantified human eating behavior data.<br><br>Hacking
Eating Tracking will have an unusual format that can be defined as an
hybrid between a scientific symposium and a hackathon. Saturday and
Sunday morning there will be three discussion panels covering science,
technology and applications. The hackathon will run in parallel with
these panels. Sunday afternoon there will be a final pitch and demos of
hackathon teams and prizes. Aside from the program agenda there will be
also be a number of opportunities to socialize and exchange ideas.<br><br>We
welcome participants from a variety of disciplines: science,
technology, arts and business, in particular active individuals who are
passionate about this topic and are willing to spend a weekend
generating ideas, connections, discussions and hackathon innovations.
