DESCRIPTION:COVID-19: An Update on best practices\, testing and future directions \nRabbi Arthur Schneier in dialog with Sarah Schlesinger Hirschfeld\, M.D. \nYouTube: https://youtu.be/iw-JSl53Cjw \nZoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87641366256\nMeeting ID: 876-4136-6256 \n \nABOUT SARAH SCHLESINGER HIRSCHFELD\, M.D. \nSarah Hirschfeld is an Associate Professor of Clinical Investigation and Senior Attending Physician at The Rockefeller University. Dr. Hirschfeld chairs The Rockefeller University Institutional Review Board and the Research Education and Training committee\, which is part of the Center for Clinical and Translational Science. She also serves as director of the Clinical Scholars Program and the Certificate in Clinical and Translational Sciences Program. \nPreviously\, she led clinical trials of 11 HIV vaccines and vaccine adjuvants. She also previously conducted the first HIV vaccine trial based on dendritic cells\, which were discovered at Rockefeller in 1973 by Ralph M. Steinman and his mentor\, Zanvil A. Cohn. Ralph’s discovery was recognized with the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2011. \nIn the steady state\, dendritic cells capture antigens and travel to immune or lymphoid tissues\, where they present the antigens to T cells\, stimulating a robust immune response. But dendritic cells also play a seemingly opposite role\, immune tolerance\, silencing dangerous immune cells and preventing them from attacking the body’s own tissues. Working with Steinman\, Dr. Hirschfeld used dendritic cells to study and design treatments that can either enhance the immune system or silence its functions in an antigen- or disease-specific manner. \nDr. Hirschfeld currently serves on the board of directors at Innoviva\, Inc.\, Armata Pharmaceuticals\, Inc. eGenesis Bio and the board of three non-profit organizations: the AIDS Vaccines Advocacy Coalition\, Global Viral\, and The Hastings Center\, the pre-eminent center for the study of bioethics. Dr. Hirschfeld  served as an independent corporate director of Ariad Pharmaceuticals from 2013 until its sale to Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited in 2017 and as independent corporate director of The Medicines Company until its sale to Novartis in 2020. \nDr. Hirschfeld has a B.A. from Wellesley College and an M.D. from Rush Medical College in Chicago\, Illinois. She trained in Pathology at The New York Hospital where she served as Chief Resident. She lives in New York City with her husband Real Estate developer Elie Hirschfeld. Together they are the proud parents of ten children and three grandchildren. \n  URL:https://parkeastsynagogue.org/event/covid19update/ CATEGORIES:Front Page - The Events Calendar,Holiday ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://parkeastsynagogue.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Covid19.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200428T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200428T200000 DTSTAMP:20260607T122402 CREATED:20200428T210101Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250108T165618Z UID:47928-1588104000-1588104000@parkeastsynagogue.org SUMMARY:Yom HaZikaron & Yom Ha'atzmaut DESCRIPTION:Dear Members\, \nPlease join us tonight\, Tuesday\, April 28 at 8pm for our Yom HaZikaron and Yom Ha’atzmaut program\, in remembering the fallen soldiers of the IDF and celebrating the 72nd Anniversary of the State of Israel. \nYouTube: https://youtu.be/3QdsVMyHS-I \nZoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87604972788\nMeeting ID:  876-0497-2788 \nRabbi Arthur Schneier\nDani Dayan\, Consul General of Israel of NY\nCantor Benny Rogosnitzky  URL:https://parkeastsynagogue.org/event/2020yomhaatzmaut/ CATEGORIES:Front Page - The Events Calendar,Holiday END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200320T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200408T100000 DTSTAMP:20260607T122402 CREATED:20180305T180123Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200408T164836Z UID:46644-1584662400-1586340000@parkeastsynagogue.org SUMMARY:Sale of Chametz DESCRIPTION:Sale of Chametz is now closed.\nForms needed to be filled out by Wednesday\, April 8th\, 2020 by 11:50am. \n  URL:https://parkeastsynagogue.org/event/sale-of-chametz-2020/ CATEGORIES:Front Page - The Events Calendar,Holiday,Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://parkeastsynagogue.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Sale-of-Chametz.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
