![Leadership, Democracy, and Civic Responsibility with Ambassador Jeff Flake
In an era of rapid political change, shifting global alliances, and deepening partisan divides, the Helen Edison Lecture Series is honored to welcome Ambassador Jeff Flake, former U.S. Senator from Arizona, U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, and author of Conscience of a Conservative: A Rejection of Destructive Politics and a Return to Principle. Flake explores the challenges and opportunities of democratic governance in today’s volatile political climate.
Hi career spanned pivotal moments in recent American history: navigating congressional gridlock, representing U.S. interests abroad amid global uncertainty, and advocating for principled leadership in the public square. His tenure offers a unique vantage point on the pressures within Washington and the larger questions of constitutional balance, institutional resilience, and civic trust. Moderated by Marco Werman, host and executive editor of The World and UC San Diego Journalist in Residence, this conversation invites reflection on how conviction, dialogue, and courage can restore civic trust and strengthen democracy.

Environmentalist and author Bill McKibben has helped shape how the world understands climate change. In this conversation with Marco Werman, host of The World, McKibben offers a clear-eyed look at the climate crisis and the solutions that could help reduce the damage of a warming planet.
As part of the Burke Lectureship at UC San Diego, McKibben also explores the moral and spiritual questions at the heart of climate change. More than three decades after The End of Nature brought climate change to a broad audience, his work continues to connect science, ethics, and grassroots action, including the global climate campaign 350.org and the fossil fuel divestment movement.

![Extreme Events in California’s Changing Climate
A version of this video with audio description track is available here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADTMNYQA3HU
How does global warming connect to the extreme weather people experience close to home? Drawing on the work of the Weather Extremes and Climate Impacts Analytics group, Sasha Gershunov of Scripps Institution of Oceanography outlines the accelerating warming trend, the role of fossil fuels and carbon dioxide, and the greenhouse effect, and how it relates to extreme weather. He also traces key milestones in climate science, including the long-term carbon dioxide measurements begun by Charles David Keeling. The discussion then turns to how climate change may affect heat waves, floods, droughts, storms, wildfires, and sea level rise. Recorded on 03/05/2026. [5/2026] [Show ID: 41412]

![Immunotherapy and Prostate Cancer
Immunotherapy expert Dr. David Oh explains how the immune system can be trained to recognize and fight prostate cancer. He outlines key immune players—dendritic cells and T cells—and describes how immunotherapies target different stages of their interaction with tumors. Oh highlights FDA-approved treatments such as Provenge, a vaccine made from a patient’s own cells, and PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors for patients with specific genetic mutations like microsatellite instability. He also discusses potential autoimmune side effects and emphasizes the importance of genetic testing. Looking ahead, he introduces bispecific T-cell engagers, experimental therapies that physically link T cells to tumors, triggering an immune attack. These promising treatments offer new hope, especially for men with advanced, treatment-resistant prostate cancer. Recorded on 05/02/2025. [8/2025] [Show ID: 40811]

![Time Your Meals, Improve Your Health
Intermittent fasting isn’t just about calories—it’s about timing. Michael J. Wilkinson, M.D., F.A.C.C., F.N.L.A., explains how time-restricted eating aligns daily food intake with the body’s natural circadian rhythms. He shares insights from animal studies, clinical trials, and UC San Diego research showing how consolidating meals into an 8–10 hour window can improve glucose control, blood pressure, and metabolic health. Wilkinson highlights why earlier eating windows may work best, what makes studies succeed or fail, and how these findings point to practical strategies for preventing cardiometabolic disease and supporting healthy aging.
