Abstract:
A review of: Postell, William Dosité. “Further Comments on the Mathematical Analysis of Evaluating Scientific Journals.” Bulletin of the Medical Library Association 34.2 (1946): 107-9. Objective – To predict future use of journal titles for making subscription decisions. Design – Retrospective cohort study. Setting – Louisiana State University School of Medicine Library in New Orleans. Subjects – All library users, estimated to consist of primarily faculty members or their designees such as research assistants. Methods – Estelle Brodman’s previous citation analysis and reputational analysis (1944) that produced a list of eleven top-ranked physiology journal titles served as the catalyst for Postell’s retrospective cohort study. Postell compiled data on all checkouts for these specific eleven journal titles in his library for the years 1939 through approximately 1945. Main Results – Postell performed a Spearman rank-difference test on the rankings produced from his own circulation use data in order to compare it against journal title rankings produced from three other sources: (1) citation analysis from the references found in the Annual Review of Physiology based upon a system pioneered in 1927 by Gross and Gross; (2) three leading national physiology journals; and, (3) a reputational analysis list of top-ranked journals provided by the faculty members at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons Department of Physiology. Postell found a relatively high correlation (.755, with 1.000 equaling a perfect correlation) between his retrospective cohort usage data and the reputational analysis list of top-ranked journals generated by the Columbia faculty members. The two citation analyses performed by Brodman did not correlate as highly with Postell’s results. Conclusion – Brodman previously had questioned the use of citation analysis for journal subscription purchase decisions. Postell’s retrospective cohort study produced further evidence against basing subscription purchases on citation analysis. Postell noted that the citation analysis method “cannot always be relied upon as a valid criterion” for selecting journals in a discipline.

ABSTRACT Increased expression of LY6K is significantly associated with poor survival outcomes in many solid cancers, including triple-negative and estrogen receptor-positive breast, ovarian, gastric, head and neck, neuroblastoma, bladder, and lung cancers. Inhibition of LY6K signaling is an ideal therapeutic approach for cancer, since the LY6K protein is not involved in vital organ function. Previously, we identified the small molecule NSC243928 as a binder of LY6K using surface plasmon resonance screening and showed that its activity was dependent on LY6K expression in triple-negative breast cancer cells. Here, we demonstrate the structural basis of the molecular interaction of NSC243928 with LY6K protein and the subsequent inhibition of LY6K function in mitosis and cell division via Aurora B-histone pathway. We observed that LY6K interacts with phosphorylated histones and Aurora B kinases during mitosis and that this interaction was disrupted in the presence of NSC243928. Disruption of LY6K function in mitosis/cytokinesis leads to DNA damage, senescence, and apoptosis of cancer cells. We observed that NSC243928 led to increased binding of LY6K to phosphorylated gammaH2X at S139, which was dependent on NSC243928 interaction with LY6K on phenylalanine 79. Furthermore, we observed increased levels of phosphorylated gammaH2X at S139 and increased caspase-3 activation in the tumor isografts of 4T1 and E0771 mammary tumors treated with NSC243928. These data reveal that LY6K is a novel cell cycle target for therapeutic development in triple-negative breast cancer and other solid cancers with high expression of LY6K, such as bladder cancer, head and neck, and lung cancer.

Abstract:
The treatment of chronic pain, therapeutic opioid use and abuse, and the nonmedical use of prescription drugs have been topics of intense focus and debate. After the liberalization of laws governing opioid prescribing for the treatment of chronic non-cancer pain by state medical boards in the late 1990s, and with the introduction of new pain management standards implemented by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) in 2000, opioids, in general, and the most potent forms of opioids including Schedule II drugs, in particular, have dramatically increased. Despite the escalating use and abuse of therapeutic opioids, nearly 15 to 20 years later the scientific evidence for the effectiveness of opioids for chronic non-cancer pain remains unclear. Concerns continue regarding efficacy; problematic physiologic effects such as hyperalgesia, hypogonadism and sexual dysfunction; and adverse side effects – especially the potential for misuse and abuse – and the increase in opioid-related deaths. Americans, constituting only 4.6% of the world’s population, have been consuming 80% of the global opioid supply, and 99% of the global hydrocodone supply, as well as two-thirds of the world’s illegal drugs. Retail sales of commonly used opioid medications (including methadone, oxycodone, fentanyl base, hydromorphone, hydrocodone, morphine, meperidine, and codeine) have increased from a total of 50.7 million grams in 1997 to 126.5 million grams in 2007. This is an overall increase of 149% with increases ranging from 222% for morphine, 280% for hydrocodone, 319% for hydromorphone, 525% for fentanyl base, 866% for oxycodone, to 1,293% for methadone. Average sales of opioids per person have increased from 74 milligrams in 1997 to 369 milligrams in 2007, a 402% increase. Surveys of nonprescription drug abuse, emergency department visits for prescription controlled drugs, unintentional deaths due to prescription controlled substances, therapeutic use of opioids, and opioid abuse have been steadily rising. This manuscript provides an updated 10-year perspective on therapeutic use, abuse, and nonmedical use of opioids and their consequences. Key words: Controlled prescription drug abuse, opioid abuse, opioid misuse, nonmedical use of psychotherapeutic drugs, nonmedical use of opioids, National Survey on Drug Use and Health, National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University

It is nothard to understand why the Horkheimer circle would have desiredto settle at Columbia, but it is peculiar that the Frankfurt Schoolwould have received an invitation from Columbia.

Abstract:
The Columbia Biological Series (1894–1974) was produced by the Department of Biology (later Zoology) of Columbia University, New York, and spanned a wide range of topics within the biological sciences. This paper provides a bibliography for the twenty-five volumes of this series together with basic details on the launch (1894), re-launch (1937), and history of the series. The series receives attention from historians of biology principally as the source for canonical texts in the synthesis period of evolutionary studies, with publications by Dobzhansky, Mayr, Simpson, and Stebbins. This note provides additional details on the publication history of these volumes. Synthesis historians, myself included, have poorly appreciated how the production of this series fit into efforts to promote Columbia University as a major centre for innovative biological research. We also have poorly understood the relations between these books and the Jesup lecture series, an irregular event sponsored by the department at Columbia. Tracing the series' publication history speaks to both these topics.

Abstract:
It has been said that the character of an institution is largely determined by its history and the personalities that shaped it. If this is so, the Frederic Wood Theatre has much to draw on, for it was founded in the spirit of cooperation and promise. This thesis traces the beginning of the university from the original petition for its formation, through its early struggle to be established. Concurrent with this expansion is the growth of theatre at the university, a development which helped to introduce the institution throughout the province. The current Frederic Wood Theatre is the outgrowth of a tradition of theatre at the University of British Columbia. The beginning of this historical retrospective is the original petition for the founding of the university. Subsequent to that initial and failed attempt, the University of British Columbia was created by legislation through the efforts of Henry Esson Young, the "Father of the university", and by organization through the works of Frank Fairchild Wesbrook, its first President. Professor Frederic Wood, a founding member of the faculty in 1915, formed the Players'Club which provided the university its theatrical foundation for the next thirty years. Dorothy Somerset, a Director of the Players'Club and the Vancouver Little Theatre (also co-founded by Prof. Frederic Wood) established accredited theatre courses at the university and founded the Summer School of the Theatre. In 1952, these achievements won her the university's first legitimate theatre: the Frederic Wood. With single-minded purpose, Dorothy Somerset further established the Department of Theatre in 1958, building the present 410 seat Frederic Wood Theatre five years later in 1963. More than a physical building, the Frederic Wood Theatre is a dynamic process responding to the energies and influences of its principals. Seven individuals (out of hundreds) who were fundamental in contributing to the accomplishments of the Frederic Wood Theatre are introduced: Henry Esson Young, ''Father of the University'; Frank Fairchild Wesbrook, first President of the University of British Columbia; Professor Frederic G.C. Wood, founder of the Players' Club; Dorothy Somerset, founder of the Department of Theatre; Jessie Richardson, in whose honour years later, the Jessie Awards were created; Norman Young, stage manager, publicizer and lobbyist, and John Brockington, Head of the Theatre Department for 23 years, the man who guided and developed its academic and degree granting programs. Few people realize how great a role the theatre has played in the establishment of the University of British Columbia.

Lelo, de Larrea Andrade Enrique. "Topics in Simulation: Random Graphs and Emergency Medical Services." Thesis, 2021. https://doi.org/10.7916/d8-xf7v-8z92.

Full text
Abstract:
Simulation is a powerful technique to study complex problems and systems. This thesis explores two different problems. Part 1 (Chapters 2 and 3) focuses on the theory and practice of the problem of simulating graphs with a prescribed degree sequence. Part 2 (Chapter 4) focuses on how simulation can be useful to assess policy changes in emergency medical services (EMS) systems. In particular, and partially motivated by the COVID-19 pandemic, we build a simulation model based on New York City’s EMS system and use it to assess a change in its hospital transport policy. In Chapter 2, we study the problem of sampling uniformly from discrete or continuous product sets subject to linear constraints. This family of problems includes sampling weighted bipartite, directed, and undirected graphs with given degree sequences. We analyze two candidate distributions for sampling from the target set. The first one maximizes entropy subject to satisfying the constraints in expectation. The second one is the distribution from an exponential family that maximizes the minimum probability over the target set. Our main result gives a condition under which the maximum entropy and the max-min distributions coincide. For the discrete case, we also develop a sequential procedure that updates the maximum entropy distribution after some components have been sampled. This procedure sacrifices the uniformity of the samples in exchange for always sampling a valid point in the target set. We show that all points in the target set are sampled with positive probability, and we find a lower bound for that probability. To address the loss of uniformity, we use importance sampling weights. The quality of these weights is affected by the order in which the components are simulated. We propose an adaptive rule for this order to reduce the skewness of the weights of the sequential algorithm. We also present a monotonicity property of the max-min probability. In Chapter 3, we leverage the general results obtained in the previous chapter and apply them to the particular case of simulating bipartite or directed graphs with given degree sequences. This problem is also equivalent to the one of sampling 0–1 matrices with fixed row and column sums. In particular, the structure of the graph problem allows for a simple iterative algorithm to find the maximum entropy distribution. The sequential algorithm described previously also simplifies in this setting, and we use it in an example of an inter-bank network. In additional numerical examples, we confirm that the adaptive rule, proposed in the previous chapter, does improve the importance sampling weights of the sequential algorithm. Finally, in Chapter 4, we build and test an emergency medical services (EMS) simulation model, tailored for New York City’s EMS system. In most EMS systems, patients are transported by ambulance to the closest most appropriate hospital. However, in extreme cases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, this policy may lead to hospital overloading, which can have detrimental effects on patients. To address this concern, we propose an optimization-based, data-driven hospital load balancing approach. The approach finds a trade-off between short transport times for patients that are not high acuity while avoiding hospital overloading. To test the new rule, we run the simulation model and use historical EMS incident data from the worst weeks of the pandemic as a model input. Our simulation indicates that 911 patient load balancing is beneficial to hospital occupancy rates and is a reasonable rule for non-critical 911 patient transports. The load balancing rule has been recently implemented in New York City’s EMS system. This work is part of a broader collaboration between Columbia University and New York City’s Fire Department.

Abstract:
Abstract Before Putnam arrived in 1939, there had been some neuroscience research at Columbia but not much. However, Putnam’s faculty appointments, conversely, led in a direct line from Harry Grundfest to Nobelists Eric Kandel and Richard Axel, from Fred Mettler to Malcolm Carpenter in neuroanatomy, from Putnam’s own work on multiple sclerosis to Elvin Kabat and, later, to patient-oriented research in the Department of Neurology for a panoply of human disorders: epilepsy, neuromuscular disease, Mendelian and mitochondrial genetic diseases, epidemiological studies of dementia and cerebrovascular disease, and child neurology. For a while, however, all neuroscience in the entire university was in Putnam’s Department of Neurology. Before Putnam, Tilney and Riley had produced The Brain from Ape to Man and a widely used anatomical atlas of the human brain and spinal cord,1a but the Department of Neurology had not carried out much disease-oriented research, in stark contrast to the epilepsy progress seen at the Boston City Hospital.

Abstract:
Abstract When the Presbyterian Hospital in the City of New York joined with the Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons, they adopted guidelines that have remained in place ever since. Chairs of the departments are university officers, and they are the ones who nominate new members of the faculty. If a clinical department is involved, the person has two titles, one at the university and the other in the hospital. For instance, an assistant professor of neurology in the medical school is an assistant attending neurologist in the hospital. In the medical school, Tracy Putnam’s title was professor of neurology. At Presbyterian Hospital, he was director of two separate services, Neurology and Neurosurgery. He held these positions with “tenure,” which ordinarily means that he could not be forced to relinquish his positions without cause. Tenure was designed to protect the right of university professors to speak and write without fear of being fired for expressing unpopular views. Tenure is granted by the university, not the hospital. It is a promise to pay a salary if other sources are lost but has never been tested at Columbia as far as the author knows.

Abstract:
The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) establishes performance accountability indicators and performance reporting requirements to assess the effectiveness of local workforce development programs. The WIOA State Porta provides the number of clients served per state. In 2017, the District served roughly 15,000 under the WIOA, 8,000 through a state apprenticeship program and 3,000 through University of the District of Columbia Community College's Division of Workforce Development. From 2009-2017, the District was designated as an “at risk” employment agency by the federal Department of Labor. Such a designation indicated that the Department questioned the capability of the District's workforce programs to employ local residents. And, the Department of Labor's “at risk” designation also suggested CSOSA clients referred to the District's employment programs would have been unlikely to have received WIOA, TANF, or SNAP training in a timely fashion to meet CSOSA's client accountability contracts.

Abstract:
This paper describes two gas turbine related research projects in the department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia. Of the two projects described, one involves fundamental turbomachinery research while the second is a more applied project concerned with gas turbine based cogeneration systems in process industries. In the fundamental research area, both an experimental and computational study of unsteady boundary layer development on turbomachinery blading is described. The applied research program involves an engineering and economic assessment of a gas turbine based cogeneration system for sawmills. The system is designed to use wood-waste generated during the saw-milling process as a source of heat for an indirectly fired gas turbine. Studies to date indicate that such a system could result in many sawmills becoming completely energy self-sufficient.

Abstract:
It has been widely documented that many undergraduate students demonstrate antipathy towards statistics. This paper documents the findings from an investigation of statistics education in a sport and exercise science department at The University of Chichester in the UK. Sports science is a multidisciplinary subject that encompasses biomechanics, physiology, and psychology. The university had a suite of four programmes each with a different emphasis in terms of subject discipline. Academics’ use and interpretation of statistics are influenced by their subject specialism within sports science. The investigation evaluated the differences in examination performance between degree programmes, gender and previous mathematics achievement. Findings from the analysis of examination results found mathematics qualification to significantly affect achievement in statistics examinations. Qualitative analysis provided contextual detail that support the need for professional and pedagogic development.

Abstract:
Abstract Research consistently shows that children who have opportunities to actively investigate natural settings and engage in problem-based learning greatly benefit from the experiences? This project developed a model of curriculum and community enterprise to address that issue within the nation's largest urban school system. Middle school students will study New York Harbor and the extensive watershed that empties into it, as they conducted field research in support of restoring native oyster habitats. The project builds on the existing Billion Oyster Project, and was implemented by a broad partnership of institutions and community resources, including Pace University, the New York City Department of Education, the Columbia University Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, the New York Academy of Sciences, the New York Harbor Foundation, the New York Aquarium, and others. The project model includes five interrelated components: A teacher education curriculum, a digital platform for project resources, museum exhibits, and an afterschool STEM mentoring program. It targets middle-school students in low-income neighborhoods with high populations of English language learners and students from groups underrepresented in STEM fields and education pathways. This paper explores the management of this large-scale project and provides insight with regard to the governance of the various project components.

Abstract:
News media can have a powerful effect on people’s physiology, thinking, and emotions. This study aims was to examine the effects of positive and negative news on optimism, pessimism, self.esteem, and depression. The survey covered students from the Department of Journalism of the University of Istanbul and involved 61 participants — 35 women and 26 men. While people from the first group were asked to read positive news, the second group read negative news. In order to measure the level of optimism and pessimism of our participants, they were asked then to choose at least four optimistic and pessimistic adjectives. Rosenberg Self. Esteem scale was used to determine changes in self.esteem and depression. Results suggested that people who read positive news were more optimistic about their future (M optimism = 5.92, SD = 1.75), and less pessimistic (M pessimism = .88, SD= 1.5). When people read negative news, they chose more pessimistic adjectives (M pessimism= 4.36, SD= 2.44), and fewer pessimistic ones (M optimism = 1.88, SD = 1.94). Moreovere, when people read positive news, they showed less signs of depression (M depression = 1.6, SD = .70) than when people read negative news (M depression = 3.06, SD = 1.37). Finally, we found no significant differences in the level of self.esteem when participants were exposed to positive and negative news.

Abstract:
The U.S. Department of Labor awarded a $2.3 million grant to the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU) in 2006 in response to the need for well-trained Radiation Protection Technicians (RPTs). The RPT curriculum initiative resulted from significant collaborations facilitated by MU with community colleges, nuclear power plants, professional organizations, and other nuclear industry stakeholders. The objective of the DOL project is to help increase the pool of well-qualified RPTs to enter the nuclear workforce. Our work is designed to address the nuclear industry’s well-documented, increasingly significant need for RPTs. In response to this need, MU and AmerenUE’s Callaway Nuclear Power Plant first partnered with Linn State Technical College’s Advanced Technology Center (LSTC/ATC) to initiate a two-year RPT degree program. The success of this program (enrollments have been increasing over the past four years to a Fall 2007 enrollment of 23) enabled the successful proposal to the DOL to expand this program nationwide. DOL participants include the following partners: Linn State Technical College with AmerenUE – Callaway; Central Virginia Community College with AREVA; Estrella Mountain Community College with Arizona Public Service – Palo Verde; MiraCosta Community College with Southern California Edison – San Onofre; and Hill College with Texas Utilities – Comanche Peak. The new DOL grant has allowed redevelopment of the LSTC/ATC curriculum using a web-based, scenario driven format, benchmarked against industry training standards. This curriculum will be disseminated to all partners. Integral in this curriculum is a paid, three to four month internship at a nuclear facility. Two of the six new RPT courses have been developed as of the end of 2007. Four of five partner schools are accepting students into this new program starting in the winter 2008 term. We expect that these institutions will graduate 100 new RPTs per year to help alleviate the personnel shortage in this critical area of need.
