Come hear about how Baltimore's very own Esperanza Center is supporting the undocumented community with pro-bono health and legal services. Learn about how to be an ally for this vulnerable population! Sponsored by the Latinx Health Advocacy Group.

The Esperanza Health Center Health Services Clinic (ECHC) provides free medical and dental services to uninsured immigrants in the metropolitan Baltimore region who do not qualify for government-sponsored health insurance. The clinic offers no-cost quality primary and preventive care for adults and children. Services are provided by dedicated volunteers and staff, in partnership with Johns Hopkins Medical Institute.

The Office for Science and Innovation (OSI) is pleased to announce that Chakra Budhathoki, PhD, Associate Professor and member of the Biostatistics and Methods Core, will be hosting a seminar titled Introduction to Meta-analysis.

It is common to find multiple individual research studies examining the same research question however, the findings may vary in terms of direction and/or effect size.  Often individual studies lack statistical power to draw robust inferences. As a method of research synthesis, meta-analysis allows researchers to combine relevant studies in a single analysis. Meta-analysis is a powerful tool that needs to be carefully used. This seminar will focus on important statistical methods related to meta-analysis that can be used to combine results from multiple studies. Dr. Budhathoki will discuss the strengths and limitations of meta-analysis as an approach to research synthesis.

Dr. Budhathoki is a biostatistician with experience in study design and analysis. His areas of interest and expertise include randomized controlled trials, mixed-effects modeling and meta-analysis. He was a biostatistician collaborator on two major NIAID funded phase III clinical trials on HIV/AIDS, and several other nursing and medical studies at JHU and elsewhere.

Please RSVP to OSI assist us in catering lunch

This workshop will be recorded and livestreamed

Thread is weaving a new social fabric in Baltimore, and we are looking for volunteers to join our movement. Thread disrupts the pattern of social isolation by enrolling 9th grade students who rank in the lowest 25 percent of their class academically and who face additional challenges outside of the classroom. These students and volunteers form Thread Families where they build reciprocal and transformative relationships to help each other through the ups and downs of life. 

Thread currently works with 415 students and alumni and 1000+ volunteers, with plans to reach 7% of Baltimore's entire 9th grade class. We are looking for volunteers to work with students, lead a team of volunteers, or support out organization as resource team members baed on your skills and expertise. Thread's work is getting national recognition for its unique approach to connecting people across lines of race, class, and zip code. Join the Thread movement! 

Information Session is at Johns Hopkins Medical Campus, Miller Research Building Rm G01, 733 N Broadway from 6-7pm
