I'm looking to connect with two experts for interviews: Automotive cybersecurity professionals or researchers with experience in connected vehicle security, data privacy, or emerging automotive technology. EV industry, automotive safety, or consumer protection professionals who can speak to manufacturer responsibility, consumer safeguards, and the future of electric vehicle ownership. Interviews will be conducted virtually via Zoom. If you have relevant experience, would be interested in participating, or can recommend someone knowledgeable in this area, I'd love to connect.

Windsor-Essex Healthcare Professionals - Podcast Guests

ANNOUNCEMENT | Introducing Good Tell: Behind the Care Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to see firsthand the important work healthcare professionals do for individuals, families, and our communities. Much of that work happens behind the scenes, often without the recognition it deserves. I’m pleased to announce that I’m developing Good Tell: Behind the Care, a new podcast featuring conversations with people working across all areas of healthcare. From family doctors, medical specialists, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, paramedics, personal support workers, mental health professionals, healthcare administrators, researchers, and many others, I want to hear from the people who contribute to healthcare every day. Through these interviews, we’ll discuss their experiences, the challenges they face, what brought them into healthcare, the work they do, and their perspectives on the future of healthcare and patient care. The podcast will focus primarily on Windsor-Essex, while also welcoming healthcare professionals from across Canada and beyond. I’m currently inviting people from all healthcare professions and disciplines who are interested in sharing their stories, knowledge, and perspectives. If you’d like to participate or recommend someone as a guest, please reach out. 📧 [email redacted] 📞 519-567-3020 Good Tell | Behind the Care Giving a voice to the people behind healthcare.

LATAM Site Coordinators - Visibility to Sponsors & CROs

One of our recent Global Trial Accelerators™ guests said something that stuck with me: "The biggest barrier to clinical research in Latin America is not regulation. It is that the people doing the work are invisible to the people funding it." She was talking about site coordinators, sub-investigators, and regulatory specialists who have run dozens of studies but have no presence outside their local network. The sponsors who would benefit most from their expertise do not know they exist. That is exactly why the podcast matters. Every episode puts a name, a face, and a track record in front of an audience that includes the sponsors, CROs, and institutions making decisions about where to run their next trial. If you are one of those invisible operators, the ones doing the work that makes LATAM clinical research possible, I want to hear your story. Apply to be a guest at https://lnkd.in/gJ7t7Z92. Julio G.

African Diaspora - Identity & Migration Across Generations

i'm exploring something new, and i think it's time to put it out into the world i'm building an independent editorial project exploring african identity, migration and belonging across generations and geographical borders and this one is quite personal to me. my parents migrated from nigeria to the uk in search of a better future, as many african families have done i was born and raised here, but grew up with nigeria very much at the centre of my upbringing. (if you know me well enough, you'll know just how much of my personality and mannerisms are rooted in nigerian culture 😭) but as i've grown older, i've found myself asking questions that i don't think i've fully answered. what does it mean to belong to a place? why do so many people feel they have to leave their home countries to access the opportunities they want? what happens when the country you call home doesn't always make you feel at home? and how do we create societies where people genuinely have the choice to build fulfilling lives, wherever they come from? these aren't questions with straightforward answers and that's quite literally the point. i don't believe one person, one experience or one perspective can speak for an entire continent or community. but i do believe there's so much we can learn when we make room for different voices. recent conversations have reminded me just how many people have their own experiences to share, perspectives to challenge and questions that deserve to be explored. because behind every statistic is a person, a family and a story that deserves to be understood. and these conversations shouldn't end at awareness. they should challenge our assumptions, encourage us to question the societies we live in and, hopefully, inspire meaningful change. so, introducing: Where Do We Belong? through personal stories, interviews, research, articles and roundtable discussions, i hope to explore the experiences of african people across different countries, generations and walks of life. from those who have migrated, stayed or returned, to those growing up in the diaspora and navigating multiple cultural identities. and importantly, i don't want these conversations to focus solely on the challenges we face. there's so much to celebrate, question and understand about our cultures, ambitions, achievements, communities and the futures we're building. if any of this resonates with you, i'd love to hear from you! whether you have a perspective you'd like to share, experience in research, writing or community-building, or simply an interest in the conversations we're hoping to create, please feel free to connect or drop me a message this is still very much in its early stages, but i'm excited to see what we can build through the perspectives and experiences of others. where do we belong?

25 Black Women Who Lost Federal Jobs - Economic Harm & Accountability

THE EXTRAORDINARY POWER OF BLACK WOMEN. AND THE PRICE WE KEEP PAYING. Once again, elections have reminded America of the extraordinary political power of Black women. We organize. We show up. We help shape the future of this country. But who shows up for us when our own lives are being dismantled? What has happened to Black women whose careers, livelihoods, and economic security have been decimated by the Trump administration. I am one of them. We did everything right. In fact, we did everything white supremacy demanded of us. We got the degrees. Often more than one. We worked twice as hard. We mastered the institutions that questioned our belonging. We built distinguished careers, served our country, raised families, bought homes, and saved for retirement. We believed that excellence, competence, and decades of service would mean something. We were wrong. The jobs disappeared. Careers built over decades were dismantled. Financial security evaporated. And the country moved on to the next headline. But we are still here. Still unemployed. Still watching savings disappear. Still wondering how we will pay our mortgages, protect our families, and rebuild futures that took a lifetime to secure. And please, do not call us resilient. Resilience has become the language America uses to congratulate Black women for surviving what it refuses to prevent. I am launching The Women Who Did Everything Right, beginning with a pilot of 25 Black women whose careers and livelihoods were disrupted by the actions against the federal workforce, including women working for federal contractors and affected organizations. I want to know where we are now. What we have lost. What this has cost our families. What it means to confront unemployment, financial insecurity, and professional erasure after decades of achievement. And I want to ask the questions that aren't being asked loudly enough. Where are the lawyers? Where are the employers? Where are the institutions that benefited from our labor? Who is documenting the damage? Who is fighting for restitution? Who is going to make us whole? This is not a project about celebrating our strength. It is about documenting the consequences of institutional decisions and demanding accountability, economic justice, and repair. I am looking for 25 Black women willing to begin this conversation with me. If you lost your federal job, were pushed out of public service, or worked for a federal contractor or organization affected by these decisions, please send me a private message. You do not have to share your story publicly. I also want to hear from attorneys, employers, recruiters, researchers, and organizations prepared to turn these stories into action. Black women have demonstrated, election after election, what we can do for this country. Now I want to know what this country is prepared to do for us. We are done being told to survive what should never have happened. We are demanding to be made whole.

Sustainability Experts - Opinion & Commentary

Some personal news: this week marks my last with IR Impact, after three years as editor and many more in other capacities. I first joined (what was then called) IR Magazine in 2013 as a research reporter, whipped into shape by my first bosses Janet, Tim and Lloyd, helped by them alongside Garnet and Candice into becoming an actual journalist. Back then, we were excited by things like 'big data' and shareholder activism organised on Twitter. How things have changed... It has been an utter privilege to have time with IROs from every jurisdiction and industry, learning what makes their companies tick and how they keep their investors happy (or as minimally unhappy as possible). There are too many of you to thank, but if you've ever as much as replied to one of my email requests for an interview or a podcast feature: an enormous thank you. I won't be going far away: my next role will be working at Trellis Group to build out their opinion desk. If you have strong views about anything in the sustainability world, drop me a line... Until then, hasta luego!

Stablecoin Product Managers - Embedding Coins In Wallets & Cards

THE STABLECOIN - November 2026 is out Stablecoins have moved into the apps we already use.

Western Union picked Noah to run its stablecoin payments network. Mastercard and BVNK launched a global money platform, and Visa Direct moved stablecoin payouts into production. Meanwhile, Europe named USDC its first significant e-money token, and the OCC finalised the GENIUS Act rulebook. The new issue reads the whole month as one story: the token is disappearing into the product. Inside the issue: 📰 Main News: The Distribution Layer. Phone wallets, bank-issued coins, card networks packaging stablecoins, Europe's first systemic token, central banks choosing their seats and remittance giants re-plumbing. 📚 Reports & Whitepapers. 40 reports from the IMF, BIS, FSB, central banks, research houses and issuers. ⚖️ The Article: The Rulebook for America's Digital Dollar.

Biometrics & Computer Vision Experts - Proving Humanity In Digital Age

As AI gets better at pretending to be human, how do we prove we're actually real? CALLING ALL EXPERTS: I've been commissioned by E&T to write a feature on what makes us truly human in a world of machines. We've gone from passwords and PINs to facial recognition, blinking at cameras and proving we're alive. Yet AI is getting increasingly good at faking all of these things so I want to speak to people about the engineering challenges involved, as well as the philosophical ones. What actually makes us human in the eyes of technology? What can we measure or detect that AI can't/will never be able to replicate? How far down do we need to go before being human becomes technologically provable? And is there a point where even biometrics won't be enough? I'm keen to speak to engineers, researchers and experts in biometrics, computer vision, ID verification, AI security, liveness and related fields. I'd also love to hear from people exploring the more philosophical questions around digital identity and what it means to be human today. Note: I'm not looking to write another 'deepfakes are scary' piece. I'm much more interested in the bigger questions behind how we distinguish humans from machines. If this is your area, or you know someone who'd have an interesting take (please make it interesting!), give me a shout on: [email redacted]

Science Communicators - Environment Health Technology Projects

This time last month, I started a new adventure by becoming a student again and embarking on an MSc in Science Media Production at Imperial College London 👩🔬🧬📺🧪 Crazily it's now been 10 years since I began my undergraduate degree in Diagnostic Radiography at University of Portsmouth 😨 The last decade has been anything but straightforward. It's included qualifying and beginning my career as a radiographer at a major trauma centre during the COVID-19 pandemic (Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust), as well as periods of ill health & new diagnoses for myself. Eventually I medically imaged patients across four wonderful London hospitals, including Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust and Cleveland Clinic London 🩻😷 Along the way, I also explored careers outside of radiography, from a marketing internship at ABTA via the Leonard Cheshire Change 100 programme, to leading volunteers with Oxfam at festivals and in Greenpeace environmental campaigns. Most recently I've been working on engagement and events at Islington Council as part of Evidence Islington, which is funded by NIHR (National Institute for Health and Care Research) and focused on improving outcomes related to wider determinants of health. I’ve sometimes worried my career path looks unusual, but I have so many passions and every role has taught me new skills, adapted me to different work environments and allowed me to meet many types of amazing people. In the 1st month of this course, I've done such varied things, from writing an essay about science philosophy to producing a science radio show, so I'm excited to see where the rest of the year and beyond leads. Alongside the MSc, I've also started two new roles: 📰 Deputy News Editor for I, Science Magazine 🤝 Outreach Coordinator for the Science Communication Society To colleagues and collaborators, past and present: thank you for the support ❤️ If you're working on an interesting science related project (particularly related to the environment, technology or health) and want to connect with science communicators, or would like to be featured in an article, radio/video interview, or event, I'd love to hear from you 😊 #ScienceCommunication #ScienceMedia #ImperialCollegeLondon #PublicHealth #Healthcare #Technology #Environment #Masters #PublicEngagement #NewAdventure

People With Love Stories - Love Bites Video Series - GGSC

Anyone else feeling sad or stressed? Research shows that an effective way to boost your feeling of being loved and overall well-being is to express love or help another person. You can do both in a single act! Share your story of love with The Greater Good Science Center, where Michelle Ngo and I are collecting story snippets on how love shows up in real life. We’re calling them love bites. Some of these love bites will be featured in a series of video shorts from GGSC. We want to hear about the love in people's real lives, in any form: family, friends, romance, animals, the wider world.

Responses can be a short video, a few photos, or simply written words. They don't have to be sunny; sometimes love is hard or painful. You can answer any one of the prompts below–or, submit a video showing love in action. Think a volunteer group building a house, community gardening, caregiving in any form, hugs and shared laughter, or a lifeguard helping a patron put on her swim cap. - For me, love is ______________________ - A time I felt loved / saw love in action was when ______________________ - The hardest thing I did for love ______________________ - I show love to ______________ by ______________________ - More love is needed because ______________________ To give you a sense of what this looks like, Michelle compiled some of the stories we've received so far on this website: https://lnkd.in/eNjE3bRe If you'd like to take part, you can submit at this link, and it only takes a few minutes: https://bit.ly/greatergood Thank you in advance if you can submit, or share with a friend or colleague!

UK Law Experts & AI Safety Researchers - Chatbot-Aided Crime

🔗 How Can You Handcuff a Chatbot 🔗 I'm nervously excited to announce the project I am currently working on as part of the Social Change Initiative journalism fellowship. "How Can You Handcuff a Chatbot" is a podcast series that will explore the real world dangers of LLM's and AI chatbots, and what consequences exist when a chatbot is an accessory to a real world crime, from hacking to homicide.

AI Researchers, Founders & Tech CEOs - Retirement Plans Amid AI Risk

Indian Consumers & Auto Dealers - Jati Networks & Vehicle Choices

Seeking Indian perspectives on community networks and consumer choices I’m conducting research on how jati-based community networks in India share purchasing advice and recommendations through platforms such as WhatsApp—and how these exchanges may influence consumer choices, particularly vehicle purchases. I’d love to speak with Indian consumers, automobile dealers, and researchers or industry professionals who can share relevant experiences or perspectives. I’m also interested in whether digital communication is changing these networks and how businesses engage with them. Experiences where these networks have little or no influence are equally welcome. You can participate through: • A short written interview, completed at your convenience • A 20–30-minute video interview Responses will inform the newsletter, and I will confirm your permission and preferred attribution before quoting you. If you’re interested—or know someone who might be—please send me a DM. #India #ConsumerInsights #Automotive #CommunityNetworks

Scientists in Russian Far East - Research Priorities & Military Ties

Russia wants to attract more scientists. But what kind of research does it actually want them to do? In September 2026, Vladimir Putin proposed a special programme to attract Russian and foreign researchers to the Russian Far East. The government was asked to consider housing, relocation allowances, and support for scientists' families. At first glance, it sounds like an initiative to develop regional science. But there's another side to this story. Since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the relationship between scientific research and the military-industrial complex has become an increasingly important question. Universities and research institutions are operating in a country where defense production is a major state priority, international scientific cooperation has been severely disrupted, and researchers face growing political pressures. The Russian Far East is particularly interesting in this context. The region is home to major defense manufacturers, while some local universities and research institutions already collaborate with military-industrial enterprises or work on technologies with both civilian and military applications. But does this mean the new initiative is intended to support military research? Not necessarily. And that's precisely what I'm trying to investigate. I'm currently working on an article for T-invariant, speaking with researchers and experts on Russian science policy and defense technology, examining existing university-industry partnerships, and trying to understand how scientific priorities have changed since 2022. What interests me most is not simply whether scientists will move to the Far East, but what kind of research environment awaits them. Who will determine their research priorities? How much independence will they have? And what happens to fundamental science when technological development becomes increasingly tied to state and military interests? I think these questions deserve far more attention than the promises of housing and financial incentives. More to come once the article is published. #SciencePolicy #AcademicFreedom #ScienceJournalism #Russia

Employees Who Experienced Workplace Gaslighting - Anonymous Accounts

CALLING ALL IN MY NETWORK! I'M LOOKING FOR HELP. 📢 🙏 I have just been commissioned to create a content series about gaslighting in the workplace and I'm keen to hear real life stories from anyone in my network that might have a story to tell. I'm going to be running content on here from across my research, which may help to encourage people to speak out. If you, or anyone you know, has been the victim of gaslighting in the workplace, no matter how big or small, I want to hear about it. Gaslighting is often something we only hear about in reference to toxic romantic relationships but gaslighting is worryingly prevalent in the business world and many people are suffering unnecessarily on a daily basis. Along with my publishers, we're making it our mission to uncover this heinous act and reveal it for what it is. And when you think about the sheer volume of highly prominent world and business leaders who very openly and publicly carry out gaslighting on epic scales, just imagine how enormous the problem is in the parts of the business world that aren't subject to such public scrutiny. It needs to be stopped. Please share this post, speak to your network and let me know your stories. My DMs are always open for anyone that wants to share personal stories anonymously so please don't hesitate to get in contact if you have a story you want to be heard. All stories and examples will be held in the strictest confidence and anonymity will be rigorously upheld. Thanks in advance! #gaslighting #harassment #bullying #workplace #business #deception #support #help

Ohio Employees - Appeals To State Review Boards

People who have never met are describing the same sequence. Thank you to everyone who wrote after the last post. The accounts came from different agencies and different years, and several of them run the same route. This week I am narrowing the ask. If you appealed a removal, suspension, demotion or layoff to the Ohio State Personnel Board of Review, or appealed a denied unemployment claim to the Unemployment Compensation Review Commission, I would like to hear from you. How far it went - intake, hearing, decision, appeal. How the job ended: you resigned, you were fired, or you left because the conditions had become something you could no longer work under. Those two bodies sit at the end of the line. By the time someone reaches them the concern has usually already been through the employer, the internal channel and at least one state office, so the file holds the whole route in compressed form. State of Ohio is where the work is. If you went through the equivalent body in another state or another country, write to me anyway. The data comparison is the point. If you are under a settlement, please read it before you write. The right to speak to a government agency or to your own attorney survives most of that language. A private message is enough, and you do not need to identify your case publicly. Did your employer make false statements to a state body? What was the worst tactic they used in their defense? Did you obtain the hearing transcript? I also welcome connections with #whistleblower advocates, #investigative journalists, #watchdog organizations, #researchers, and #attorneys interested in this work. If someone in your network has faced this, please pass this invitation along.

Admissions Leaders & Researchers - Measuring Judgment Amid AI

Call for sources (Forbes): The topic: If judgment is the skill that matters most in the AI era, can higher education measure it and develop it? AI makes personal statements and other traditional evidence less reliable. Some programs now use situational judgment tests in admissions. Others try to develop judgment, ethics, and critical thinking throughout a program. I am looking for: >Admissions leaders who use (or decided not to use) situational judgment tests or other holistic measures of judgment >Faculty or program leaders who teach and assess judgment, professionalism, or critical thinking during a program >Assessment and measurement researchers who study these tools >Leaders who have concerns about these tools: fairness, evidence, cost, or access If you are interested, please reply to me directly, with: >Your name, title, and institution >Two or three sentences on your experience or view >Whether you prefer a 15-minute call or written responses I will confirm with you before I use your name or institution, and I will send you the link when the article is published. #callforsources #forbes #admissions #collegeadmissions #candidateselection

Nigerian Social Protection Specialists - FG Program Effectiveness

THE FG SOCIAL PROTECTION PROGRAMME: IS IT MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF NIGERIANS? The Federal Government has social protection programmes designed to support vulnerable Nigerians and improve their livelihoods. But how much do citizens know about these interventions? Who is benefiting, and how effective are these programmes in addressing the needs of the people they are meant to serve? The Federal Government reported disbursing ₦658.9 billion to 10.46 million poor and vulnerable households by September 2026, using biometric and digital verification systems to identify beneficiaries and deliver payments I recently took to the streets to hear directly from Nigerians about the FG Social Protection Programme. Now, I want to take the conversation beyond street opinions and into the hands of those who understand the policies, processes, and realities behind the programme. I AM LOOKING FOR AN EXPERT! Are you a social protection specialist, public policy analyst, development practitioner, researcher, or government official with in-depth knowledge of the Federal Government's Social Protection Programme? I would love to have a conversation with you in an interview to examine how the programme works, its implementation, accessibility, impact, and the challenges that may be limiting its effectiveness. If you have the expertise, or know someone who does, please send me a DM or tag them in the comments.
