    <div class="html-content">SPEAKER: John Warchal, MS, BS, NRP, Maryland State Police<br>TOPIC: The
    importance of using analytical methods in emergency preparedness and response
    decisions.
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p>John Warchal is an alumnus of our EHS undergraduate program, and holds
    a Master of Science degree from Johns Hopkins University.  He'll be
    talking on 11/1/2017 (Wednesday, 3:00pm-5:00pm in Sherman Hall, Room 305, A Wing) about the importance of using analytical
    methods in emergency preparedness and response decisions...which is one of the
    most powerful tools for breaking away from the old "well, we always did it
    this way" crowd. Much of what John has to share with us can be applied to
    many of the decisions we make, which affect the well-being and lives of
    others.   Be there!</p><p>LIVE LINK via BLACKBOARD: </p><p><u><span><a href="https://us.bbcollab.com/guest/13876aa9beb44d42b1e7cfe5df3004f6" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://us.bbcollab.com/guest/13876aa9beb44d42b1e7cfe5df3004f6</a></span></u></p>

<Tagline>Disaster Recovery Doctrine; Origins, Strengths, Limitations</Tagline>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><h5>Disaster recovery doctrine; where it came
    from, why it’s good, and<span>...</span>what
    its limitations are.</h5><h6>Speaker: Jennifer Grey</h6><p><br></p><p>LINK: </p><p>
    
    </p><p><a href="https://us.bbcollab.com/guest/13876aa9beb44d42b1e7cfe5df3004f6" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://us.bbcollab.com/guest/13876aa9beb44d42b1e7cfe5df3004f6</a></p>
    
    <p>More and more, it's Emergency Health Services former graduate students we
    turn to for up-to-date expertise. Last week it was Diane Flint, PhD candidate
    and full-time EHS undergrad program director and instructor. This week it's our
    very own Jenn Ryan, currently a PhD candidate and full-time state-level
    emergency manager and part-time instructor in our graduate program. <br></p>
    
    
    
    <p>Jenn
    is a dynamic speaker with lots of government Emergency Management (EM) experience, and loves to get
    thoughtful and probing questions during her talks.  By the way, I really
    like this topic, as one who has tried to base my conclusions on evidence rather
    than doctrine...often to find that we still lack in good evidence for much of
    what we consider to be "true".   </p>
    
    <p>Be
    there, whether in person or online!  Wednesday, October 11, 2017 from 3-5pm. Please contact Kara
    Buckmaster before 2:15 pm on Wednesday if you think you will need help logging in.</p>
