<Title>Library Staff Highlight: Heather Moss</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <strong>Name:</strong> Heather Moss<h6>
    <strong>Hometown:</strong> Baltimore, Maryland, USA</h6>
    <h6>
    <strong>Alma Mater:</strong>  University of Baltimore</h6>
    <br><strong>1. Where do you work in the library and how long have you worked there? </strong><br>I work as a copy-cataloger in technical services. I’ve been at AOK since July 2002, so almost 12 years.<br><br><strong>2. What would you like the campus community to know about your job? </strong><br>I like having a low-key, behind-the-scenes job and seeing all the new books. <br><br><strong>3. What’s your favorite aspect of working at UMBC? </strong><br>It’s a tie between my friend Chrisie Cowden (who works in Circulation) and the Canada geese that hang out on campus. <br><br><strong>4. Do you have a favorite project, event, or memory from your time working in the library?</strong><br>I gave a presentation at the Internet Librarian conference in Monterey, California in 2007. That was an amazing experience.<br><br><strong>5. If you were a UMBC student, what library services would you use/appreciate the most? </strong><br>The Leisure Reading collection is a lot of fun.<br><br><strong>6. If you had to survive on a desert island with only one book, movie, or TV show, what would it be and why?</strong><br><em>Lolita</em>, because I’ve read it 15 times and never get tired of Nabokov’s word play and cleverness.<br><strong><br>7. A wizard has turned you into your favorite animal. What are you?</strong><br>That’s a tough one, because I have a lot of favorite animals. Sharks are my very favorite, but I think I’d rather be a cat, because sharks don’t sleep and cats sleep perpetually.<br><br><strong>8. Anything else you’d like to add?</strong><br>UMBC undergrads never fail to impress me with their dedication to academics. It gives me a lot of joy to see them studying together in the library’s RLC, even on a Friday afternoon!<br><br><br><em>[Tune in every 2 weeks for a spotlight on the AOK Library &amp; Gallery staff!]</em><br>

<Title>Researcher of the Week: Rajashree Mishra</Title>
<Tagline>Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p>We met Rajashree last Fall semester and we thought it would be a good idea to revisit our researcher's again to promote the hard work that she has been working on.</p>
    <p> Rajashree is a <a href="http://biology.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Bioinformatics &amp; Computational Biology major</a> and an undergraduate researcher at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Her research probed into the micro-biological world of protein interaction which is essential to understand function within cells, pathways and relationship to diseases.<br></p>
    <br><strong>How did you find your mentor for year research project?</strong><br>Through the <a href="http://www.hhmi.umbc.edu/hhmischolars/index.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Howard Hughes Medical Institute Scholars Program</a>.<br><br><strong>How did you know this was the project you wanted to do?</strong><br>I chose the lab because of the friendly environment, the skills I knew I would be learning, and the idea of developing a tool that could be useful for the scientific community. <br><br><strong>Is this your first independent research project?</strong><br>Yes.<br><br><strong>Do you get course credit for this work?</strong><br>Yes, it counts for an upper level biology elective.<br><br><strong>How much time do you put into it?</strong><br>I put it in about 12 hours a week.<br><br><strong>How did you hear about the </strong><a href="http://www.umbc.edu/undergrad_ed/research/URA/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Undergraduate Research Award (URA</a><strong>) program?</strong><br>A fellow undergraduate in the lab received a URA.<br><br><strong>What academic background did you have before you applied for the URA?</strong><br>When I applied, I had 2.5 years of undergraduate courses. This includes Biology, Chemistry, Math, Physics, Statistics and Computer Science.<br><br><strong>Was the application difficult to do?</strong><br>No, because I have written abstracts before and I was very familiar with my work.<br><br><strong>How much did your mentor help you with the application?</strong><br>I wrote the application independently and she reviewed and edited it.<br><br><strong>What has been the hardest part about your research?</strong><br>The hardest part about the research is evaluating my method. It’s a unique method and is hard to find other methods out there to compare it to.<br><br><strong>How does your research relate to your work in other classes?</strong><br>My research relates to the skills I learned in my computer science classes and it can be applied to the information I learn in my biology classes.<br><br><strong>What else are you involved in on campus?</strong><br>I am president of Hindu Students Council and a member of UMBC ADAA, and the South Asian fusion dance team<br><br><strong>What is your advice to other students about getting involved in research? </strong><br><br>“What is research, but a blind date with knowledge.”<br> -William Henry<br><br>What you learn from books and lectures is incomparable to the information and skills you learn from being involved in research. In my opinion, a great research experience is based on how much you learned and what skills you gained from the experience.<br><br><strong>What are your career goals?</strong><br>I will be applying to PhD programs this Fall. As I work towards completing my PhD, I will better understand whether or not I want to stay in academia, work for the government, or go into industry. I eventually would like to teach at the college level.<p><br></p>

<Title>INDS430: Public Healthcare: A case study approach</Title>
<Tagline>Interested in Public Healthcare?</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">When: Wednesdays 7:10 - 9:40 pm<div><br></div>
    <div>This class will use a case-based approach to explore the influence of human culture on health policy, management and practice, providing a background to the disparities in health found within the United States. In order to provide a unifying context for these explorations, the class will include a general introduction to global health. This introduction will identify the influences of culture, religion and resources on global health decisions as experienced by major health organizations. Some examples of the specific topics that this class will cover include population screening for disease and carrier predictions, domestic and global issues for newborns and adults, and geographical distributions of disease. All topics will integrate economic, technical, political, ethical and personal challenges experienced by a professional. Students will be encouraged to propose potential solutions and management solutions to real-world issues in health care.<br><div><br></div>
