The issue of immigration has been a topic of heightened conversation here in the United States and also around the world. Over the last few years there have been thousands of people migrating from parts of Africa or from war-torn Syria, among other countries, to various parts of Europe. Michael Doyle, Professor at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs and Visiting Scholar at University of Pennsylvania's Perry World House, says the average time a refugee is in exile is about 18 years. Michael joins host Dan Loney on Knowledge@Wharton to discuss his recent workshop, “Model International Mobility Declaration”, which focused on ways to address and improve the standards and regulations governing those moving between borders, whether as visitors, workers, entrepreneurs, refugees, victims of trafficking, et cetera, and fill in key gaps in international law.

Sometimes designed objects reject their users: a computer mouse that doesn't work for left-handed people, for example, or something as simple as color choices can render a product unusable for millions. These mismatches are the building blocks of exclusion. In her book "Mismatch: How Inclusion Shapes Design", Kat Holmes describes how design can lead to exclusion, and how inclusive design methods can be a source of innovation and growth, especially for digital technologies. Host Dan Loney talks with Kat about her book on Knowledge@Wharton. Book: https://www.amazon.com/Mismatch-Inclusion-Simplicity-Technology-Business/dp/0262038889 Hosted on Acast.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has announced his candidacy for President of the United States in 2020. His policy agenda includes a single payer healthcare system, "Medicare for All.” Under this plan, the current system, including Medicare and Medicaid, would go away, with some exceptions for elective procedures. This proposal has been controversial because of the high costs of implementing such a government program that covers all Americans. But could a national health insurance program work for the United States? Host Dan Loney talks with Mark Pauly, a Professor of Health Care Management and Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at the Wharton School, and Rob Field, a Professor of Law and Professor of Health Management and Policy at Drexel University and lecturer in Wharton’s Healthcare Management Department, to find out more about the possibilities of shaking up US health care systems on Knowledge@Wharton.

Would you buy brand-name ice cream or shampoo that came in a reusable container? A company called Loop is working with a number of consumer product companies, including Nestle, PepsiCo and Proctor & Gamble, to work towards "zero waste" initiatives.

Federal regulations mandate pilots must retire when they are 65 years old. But there is no such law in place for doctors. When are doctors too old to treat patients? And what should the criteria be to determine their retirement? A new report in the Journal of the American Medical Association Surgery examines this issue and recommends protocols for testing older doctors for health and competence, though it doesn't specify at what age that should happen. Some hospitals have instituted a policy of review for physicians when they turn 70 years of age. The AMA study estimates about a quarter of all practicing physicians in the U.S. are over the age of 65. To help explore these questions, host Dan Loney is joined by the three researches from the University of Washington who worked on this report: Patchen Dellinger, a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Surgery, Thomas Gallagher a Professor in the Department of Bioethics and Humanities, and Carlos Pellegrini, a Professor in the Department of Surgery and former Chief Medical Officer at the University of Washington Medicine.  Hosted on Acast.

In 2017 there were over 47,000 opioid-linked deaths in the United States – a six percent increase from 2016, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Massachusetts is now suing Purdue Pharma, maker of Oxycontin, and members of the Sackler family, one of the wealthiest families in America and owners of Purdue Pharma. The suit alleges the Sacklers made billions of dollars as their company pushed doctors to prescribe the pain killer, assuring the drug had a low risk of misuse, even though they knew it was highly addictive. Purdue is also accused of failing to report doctors who were overprescribing the drug. The company is facing hundreds of different suits by state and local governments across the country. Host Dan Loney is joined by Rob Field, Professor of Law and Professor of Health Management and Policy at Drexel University and a lecturer in the Health Care Management Department of the Wharton school, and Keith Humphreys, Professor and Section Director for Mental Health Policy at Stanford University and Senior Research Career Scientist at the VA Health Services Research Center, to discuss these allegations and more on the opioid epidemic on Knowledge@Wharton.

Last week, the U.S. Justice Department has filed charges against tech giant Huawei alleging they have, among other things, violated the Iran Sanctions, stolen industrial secrets of American carrier T-Mobile and obstructed a criminal investigation. The Chinese telecom company is the biggest supplier of phone and internet network equipment in the world and is the second biggest cellphone producer. The indictments come two months after Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou, who is also daughter of the company’s founder, was arrested in Canada. China's foreign ministry yesterday called on the U.S. and Canada to release Wanzhou. The timing coincides with top officials from China holding a two days of trade talks with the Trump Administration in Washington. Host Dan Loney talks with Jacque DeLisle, a Professor of Law and Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania, Director of the Center for East Asian Studies, and Deputy Director of the Center for the Study of Contemporary China, and Richard Dasher, the Director of the U.S.-Asia Technology Management Center at Stanford University, to discuss how this case might play out on Knowledge@Wharton.

The 35-day partial government shutdown left 800,000 workers either on furlough or working without pay. It also affected nearly 10,000 companies who contract with the departments that were shutdown. Many people picked up other jobs during the closure, and others were moved from government contracts to working in the private sector. What we don’t know yet is whether these people will return to their jobs or whether there will be a mass exodus from the public sector, particularly as the president is warning another could happen as soon as next month. Host Dan Loney talks with Paul Light, a Professor of Public Service at New York University and Bill Resh, an Associate Professor at the University of Southern California’s Sol Price School of Public Policy, about the repercussions of the longest US government shutdown on Knowledge@Wharton.

We're featuring a series this month called “2019: A Look Ahead” and conclude our series with a look at women in leadership positions and how the Me Too movement has influenced businesses. A December report by The World Economic Forum said it would take 202 years for gender parity in the workplace – much longer than the 170 years estimated in 2016. But a study by the annual Women CEO Report said that 2018 was a great year for women, who made up over one-fifth of the newly installed CEOs last year. California took a bigger step than other states when it passed a law requiring publicly listed companies with headquarters in the state to have at least one woman on their board by the end of this year. And 2019 has started with an increase of women sworn in to the 116th United States Congress. So what might we see in the year ahead for women in 2019? Host Dan Loney is joined by Katherine Klein, a Professor of Management at the Wharton School, Vice-Dean of the Wharton Social Impact Initiative, and co-host of Dollars and Change, and Janice Madden, University of Pennsylvania Professor of Regional Science and Sociology, to discuss the implications of these shifts for women on Knowledge@Wharton.

Gillette released a new one minute, 48 second commercial on Twitter recently that has generated a lot of divided, emotional reactions from consumers. The ad tackles the issues of “toxic masculinity” – bullying, sexist talk, and violence – linking them to their signature tag line “the best a man can get.” It's the latest example of a brand taking on social issues of the day. While the ad has generated some criticism, with some men saying they will no longer use their razors, has this move been overall a win for them? Host Dan Loney is joined by Michael Kehler, a Professor of Masculinity Studies at the University of Calgary in the Werklund School of Education Research, and Hank Boyd, a Clinical Professor in the Marketing Department at the University of Maryland’s Smith School of Business, to discuss the strategy behind the commercial on Knowledge@Wharton.

Pathologists examine organs, tissues, body fluids cells and molecules to look for clues to disease and injuries. Penn Vet does this same work ... but with animals. We look at how veterinary pathology impacts the intersection of human, animal, and environmental health through extensive disease surveillance. Penn Vet's research has direct influence on agricultural systems, animal welfare/law enforcement (which has important ties to human social welfare), as well as "mad-made" ecosystems on wildlife. To learn more on these research contributions, Host Dan Loney talks with Dr. Julie Engiles, an Associate Professor of Pathology at Penn Vet’s New Bolton Center, and is also the Section Head for Avian and Mammalian Pathology for the Pennsylvania Animal Diagnostic Laboratory System (PADLS) program, on Knowledge@Wharton.

We're featuring a series this month called “2019: A Look Ahead” and continue with a look at the future of the auto industry. In 2018, car makers announced the end of many lines of sedans and coupes to focus on more popular SUVs and trucks. Companies like Ford, General Motors and Toyota are looking to spend more resources on autonomous vehicles and electric cars. The companies are also dealing with rising interest rates and trade tariffs that impact steel prices as well as sales in China. If the disappointing reviews coming out of the motor city are a sign, 2019 could be a rough year for the auto companies. Host Dan Loney talks about these contributing factors with John Paul MacDuffie, Professor of Management at the Wharton School and Director of the Program on Vehicle and Mobility Innovation at Wharton's Mack Institute, and Paul Eisenstein, Publisher and Editor of TheDetroitBureau.com on Knowledge@Wharton.

We're featuring a series this month called “2019: A Look Ahead” and continue with a look at climate change.  Several major studies, including the federal government's National Climate Assessment and the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, showed that global warming is already having a deadly impact around the world and that all countries need to take "unprecedented" actions to cut carbon emissions over the next decade. Business leaders seem to be focusing more on the dangers posed by climate and environmental issues, and it's even a top issue at the World Economic Forum in Davos this month. But the US seems to be falling behind, with President Trump having pulled the US out of the Paris climate accord and reversing a lot of Obama era policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Host Dan Loney talks with  ERIC ORTS, Guardsmark Professor of Legal Studies and Business Ethics at the Wharton School and faculty director of the Initiative for Global Environmental Leadership (IGEL), and FELIX MORMANN a Professor at Texas A&M University School of Law, join us to discuss how we can deal with this urgent issue in the coming year.   Hosted on Acast.

We're featuring a series this month called “2019: A Look Ahead” and continue with a look at technology. The tech sector went through a lot of ups and downs last year: executives from several companies testified before Congressional committees regarding their use of customers personal data, employers were held accountable by their own workers over business decisions, and some tech moguls, like Elon Musk, found themselves facing unexpected legal issues. 2019 holds the promise of new technological advances, with the possible arrival of 5G, new Apple products, further development of artificial intelligence and virtual reality, and more. Host Dan Loney speaks with Saikat Chaudhuri, Executive Director of the Mack Institute for Innovation Management at The Wharton School and co-host of Mastering Innovation, and Tucker Marion, Associate Professor and Group Chair for Academic Programs, Entrepreneurship & Innovation Group at Northeastern University's D'Amore-McKim School of Business.  Hosted on Acast.
