After her Ph.D., she worked as part of the RandD group in diverse industries starting with semiconductor packaging at Intel, Arizona, where she developed a new elastomeric thermal solution, which has now been commercialized and is used in the core i3 and i5 processors. From there she went on to work at two startups, one managing the microfluidics chip manufacturing lab at a biotechnology company and the other developing polymer formulations for oil extraction from oil sands. She also worked at Saint Gobain North America, developing various material solutions for photovoltaics and processing techniques and new applications for fluoropolymers.

Aff - Vaccine ImperialismTournament: Loyola | Round: 1 | Opponent: Harvard-Westlake MT | Judge: Lena Mizhari AND prevail than in situations where security problems can be assessed with relative certainty. Structural violence is the most important impact – ignoring them actively exacerbates exclusion AND a moral equivalent to war, in order to build lasting peace. Particularity is the best standard AND violates the interpretive ethos of critical international theory than does critical theory itself. Center the debate on research strategies that minimize oppression AND of those whose marginalized lives have become the silent scars of forgotten struggles. Racism is the biggest impact – it makes all violence structurally inevitable and is the basis for all morality. Memmi 2k AND . True, it is a wager, but the stakes are irresistible. Large scale extinction impacts are impossible to predict or simulate and will almost always be wrong – prefer impacts we know are happening AND case simply: "People get emotionally involved in games" (20). 1AC – Advantage AND at the expense of others continues to reproduce extreme inequality with human costs. The TRIPS IP regime is at the heart of that imbalance. It creates a privileged class of elites with access to medicine and locks in data exclusivity and evergreening practices that delay the entrance of generic medicines into the market, which would decrease prices. AND rising, making essential medicines inaccessible for millions of people around the world. Vaccine imperialism inevitably commodifies medicine and results in vaccine nationalism that magnifies North-South health disparities. AND , and thus consolidating a denial of their obligations to employ TRIPS flexibilities. Status quo distribution results in disparities between nations. That results in colonial hierarchies of health. AND depleted health systems, are forced to divert additional funds to servicing debt. It also results in inequalities within nations. Politicians create a hierarchy of access, which feeds racism, classism, and corruption. AND population from exercising their right to freedom of movement on an equal basis. This means COVID and future pandemics will reproduce untenable working conditions and racialized and classed life outcomes. AND death’ (McNamara and Newman 2020: 11; Sell and Williams 2019). The plan reverse casually ensures the reduction of vaccine imperialism. AND countries in the global south, but also produces asymmetries that perpetuate inequalities. 1AC – Plan AND international governance that serve the interests of the world’s most impoverished and marginalized. Prioritize our impacts. Intellectual monopoly capitalism prioritizes profitability over health, which blurs the lines between life and death. AND as reflected in their request for TRIPs waivers in COVID-19 time. Status quo medical innovation results in inequality, which the aff corrects. AND civic duty as it determines pricing for this promising COVID-19 drug. Flexibilities are insufficient. AND Property Regime (IPR) system to sustain and deepen global health inequities. | 1/28/22 |
