Professor Jonathan KaplanPhilosophy ProgramSchool of History, Philosophy, and [email protected]
Research Areas:• Philosophy of Biology• Social/Political Philosophy• Philosophy of Medicine
Research Interests: Causes of Cases versus Causes of Incidence
Social Determinants of Health• Psychosocial stress: individual versus social responses• Inequality as a source of stress and other harms• Racial and other health disparities as the embodiment of social harms
Human Behavior Genetics• What accounts for variation within a population versus between
populations? • Why do we focus on some kinds of traits rather than others?
(assumptions about normality, etc)

Mactaquac Generation StationSignificant expansion due to ASR
~$7 million per year spent on efforts to reduce the
ill-effects of ASR
Intake StructureGrown vertically by 9 inches (~230 mm)
Removed 24 inches (610 mm) of concrete by slot
cutting
~120 to 150 microstrain/year of
unrestrained expansion
Service Life - ~150 years, will last ½ or less
2030 – Complete replacement ????

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR)Expansive Internal Reaction
Experimental Research
• Visual inspection• Quantify length and volume
change• Analytical tools:
– Microscopy– Pore solution expression– Solution analysis– Isothermal calorimetry
• Statistical methods• Translate results into test
methods, specifications, reports and journal articles

Current StudentsResearch Opportunities• As a veterinary gynecologist, the majority of my
research focuses on reproductive problems in domestic animals
• As a veterinarian, I am also interested in all kinds of clinical problems from cancer prevention in pets to exotic animal nutrition
• And as a comparative reproductive physiologist, I am interested in using naturally-occurring animal models to study human diseases with the overall goal of improving the health for both animals and humans
