<Title>DoIT to retain Collaborate recordings for 12 months</Title>
<Tagline>Recordings made before July 1, 2023 to be retired</Tagline>

    <div class="html-content">
    <span><p><span>Synchronous engagement tools provide platforms for instructors and students to meet during online, hybrid, and hyflex class sessions. Many courses record these live sessions to provide a lecture reference, support test preparation, engage student or group presentations, provide virtual office hours, and more. During the COVID-19 pandemic, however, Collaborate usage exceeded available storage, requiring additional expenses to maintain an unlimited retention practice during uncertain times. As UMBC moves into a post-pandemic period, however, continued storage will incur additional fees each year. </span></p>
    <p><span>Following the </span><a href="https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/doit/posts/131264" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>announced Webex recording retention practices</span></a><span>, reasonable limitations on Collaborate recording storage will also be implemented. Beginning July 1, 2023, Instructional Technology will retain Collaborate recordings for 12 months. Thereafter, every July, the previous twelve months of recordings will be retired and removed. A three year cycle is defined in the table below.</span></p>

    <span>Collaborate recordings include a list of students who attended the live session and chat transcripts, as well as audio/video. As such, Collaborate recordings represent part of a student's educational record and are protected under FERPA for the purposes of privacy. These types of recordings should only be used in the originating course in which the synchronous session occurred, not in other courses.

This is the fifth post in the series and it focuses on the last part of Take Back the Night which is craftivism and community building.</em></span></span></div>

We know that people process their feelings in different ways, and so following survivor speak out and march, the event continues with Craftivism on Main Street. This portion of the program is intended to provide space for reflection, creative expression, and community building.</span>
    </div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div>
    <span>When the marchers return to Main Street, there will be tables set up with art supplies for anyone wishing to contribute to one of the community craft projects we'll have available: sachet bags to fill with scented dried flowers and herbs, the Clothesline Project, and the Dear Survivor scrapbook. We also encourage attendees to </span><span>check out the resource tables to learn more</span><span> about various campus and community organizations and services.</span>
    </div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div>
    <span>All are welcome to </span><span>add a page to our Dear Survivor scrapbook</span><span>, which features messages of hope, healing, and solidarity from survivors and allies who have attended TBTN in past years. The scrapbook can be found in the Women's Center lounge.</span>
    </div>

Every April, these shirts are hung shoulder-to-shoulder on a clothesline on Main Street to give public testimony to the problems of sexual and gender-based violence. Please note that while allies are invited to participate in the Monument Quilt and Dear Survivor scrapbook, the Clothesline Project is intended for those who identify as survivors.</span>

    <div>
    <span>For those who prefer a quieter space for reflection, there will be a </span><span>self-care station set up in the commuter lounge</span><span> available during the survivor speak out and the rest of the evening. There will be tissues, stress balls, coloring supplies, and other resources for self-care. The station also provides a more private space where attendees can speak with one of the counselors on call, if needed.</span>

<Title>URCAD Sneak Peek: Leila Ghaffari</Title>
<Tagline>Neuron Projections- Their Role in Cocaine Mediated Behaviors</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>Characterizing Zincergic Neuron Projections and Elucidating their Role in Cocaine Mediated Behaviors</span></p>
    <p><span><em>Location: Poster #52 from 10-11:30am in the UC Ballroom</em></span></p>
    <p><span><em>Leila Ghaffari</em></span><br>Mentor: Michael Michaelides, NIDA</p>
    <p>Zinc (Zn2+) is an essential element of life that regulates neurophysiological homeostasis. Additionally, zinc has been understood to enhance the affinity for cocaine binding of the dopamine transporter (DAT), resulting in the enhancement of cocaine mediated behaviors. Synaptic, or free zinc, has also shown to be an endogenous modulator of dopamine neurotransmission in the striatum. It is not known, however, how zinc affects DAT activity between males and females, and whether such activity differs between the dorsal striatum and nucleus accumbens, or in regions where zincergic neurons originate. Our project aims to increase understanding of zinc in this context. First, we assess whether zinc affects cocaine related behaviors, known to be modulated by striatal activity following striatal zinc chelation. Our next goal is to study if zinc alters DAT and dopamine D1 receptor binding as a function of sex. Our third goal aims to understand the proportion of zincergic neurons that project to the striatum. Through these research goals, our hope is to characterize zinc as it affects sex-dependent dopamine neurotransmission in striatal circuits.</p>

<Title>iHARP &amp; Amazon Web Services Immersion Day Event</Title>
<Tagline>Expanding Computing and Research Efforts</Tagline>

    <div><img src="https://iharp.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/686/2023/04/AY-22_23-AWS-iHARP.png" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>iHARP is a one of a kind NSF funded interdisciplinary institute that brings together expertise from Polar and Data sciences in order to tackle current climate change questions while advancing future climate change predictions. One of the many goals of iHARP researchers is to harness the power of data in order to contribute to climate science by creating scalable solutions . To accomplish this goal, iHARP has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS), in addition to Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC),  to begin exploring the expansion of iHARP's current scalable computing capabilities to build its open source data and models.  </div>To begin the process of expanding resources, iHARP in collaboration with AWS hosted two Immersion Days that took place on  March 28 - 29, 2023. The Immersion Days were hosted virtually to allow for maximum accessibility and equity in participation as iHARP has researchers expanding from Maryland to Alaska. The immersion days offered the ability for  iHARP researchers to learn about AWS services and products from the AWS experts while gaining hands-on experience through training labs. The first set of Immersion Days focused on the initial introduction to cloud computing, building and deploying machine learning (ML) models, and high performance computing (HPC).<br><br>The training provided is a vital next step to furthering iHARP's research power and its ability to harness the power of Data. Next steps include additional training specifically geared towards Geo-spatial data, open source data, and accessing current open source data. The partnership and collaboration between iHARP and AWS is one of many steps iHARP is taking to further climate change research and improve the data models available to researchers around the world. <br><br>iHARP would like to thank the many AWS representatives that came out to support the AWS Immersion days and iHARP. We would like to recognize  Mark Nelson, Mike Thomas, JP Laverde, Robert Kras, Steve Fu, and Jianjun Xu from AWS for all their hard work and for making this event possible. <br><div><br></div>
