“Science Café – Sex in the Modern Era – The Psychological Science of Human Sexuality” online with the Museum of Nature & Science and Sigma Xi2021-03-05T17:30:00Would you “ghost” someone? How do our attachment styles affect our online social media behaviors? Do our motivations to have sex differ by gender identity, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation? The study of human sexuality is a growing subdiscipline in the psychological sciences that encompasses a wide range of human behaviors and cognitions. As a basic human drive, understanding the motivations of and ways that people learn about sexual behaviors, as well as how to engage in safer sex practices, are all important components of helping people lead fulfilling and happier lives. What we know about sex and how people communicate and engage in sex is changing. This presentation will offer a variety of current research being conducted in the human sexuality subfield, focusing on how we learn about sex and what motivates us to have sex through quantitative and qualitative research methods.

Based out of Families and Youth, INC in Las Cruces, Crossroads Acupuncture and the Barefoot Acupuncture Movement have provided thousands of treatments for many of these migrants currently living within shelters, church sanctuaries and refugee camps. In addition, they have been training health promoters in Central America how to offer community acupuncture care, and improve the social fabric in these countries where as many as 30% of the people lack access to basic healthcare. This talk with the Barefoot Acupuncture Movement’s co-founder, Ryan Bemis, will offer a brief history of the use of acupuncture internationally in addressing community trauma for refugees, prisoners and other displaced populations
