August 9, 2024 App available to reserve shuttles between West Lafayette and Indianapolis; services to begin Aug. 12 [pt-campus-connect-800x533] Riders are encouraged to download the Rides2U app to reserve a seat on the free shuttles between West Lafayette and Indianapolis. The app is available through Google Play or the App Store. Download Image<https://www.purdue.edu/uns/images/2024/pt-campus-connect-800x533.jpg> [pt-interior-shuttle]Interior of the shuttle. Photo provided by Royal Excursion. Download image<https://www.purdue.edu/uns/images/2024/pt-interior-shuttle.jpg> An app is now available to reserve a seat on the free shuttles between Purdue's West Lafayette and Indianapolis locations<https://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/purduetoday/releases/2024/Q2/commuter-shutt…>. The Rides2U app allows riders to reserve a seat and see when the shuttle is close to pick-up and drop-off locations. It is available through Google Play<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.goog…> or the App Store<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fapps.appl…>. Purdue students, faculty and staff will need to create an account using their Purdue email. Using a Purdue email will ensure rides are free. Riders are not required to use the app to ride the free shuttles but are encouraged to use it to guarantee a seat. "We are excited to roll out this app, which will help enhance the rider experience," said Jessica Robertson, associate vice president for Auxiliary Services. "The app will also help administrators track ridership and potentially make necessary adjustments to shuttle schedules." The shuttles will be fully operational beginning Aug. 12. Six round trips will be offered daily during the week with a reduced schedule on the weekends during the fall and spring semesters. Pick-up and drop-off locations on the West Lafayette campus include in front of the Purdue Memorial Union and Stewart Center (PMU/STEW) along Mitch Daniels Boulevard and the circle drive on the northwest side of the France A. Córdova Recreational Sports Center (CREC). The pick-up and drop-off location for Indianapolis will be along West Vermont Street, near the intersection with North Blackford Street. "We understand that students, faculty and staff may need to commute back and forth between campuses for a wide variety of reasons," said David Umulis, senior vice provost Purdue University for Indianapolis. "Providing this service will make it easier on the Boilermaker community so we can continue to perform at the highest level and maintain excellence at scale." More information about the shuttle schedules and pick-up/drop-off locations may be found on the Auxiliary Services website<https://www.purdue.edu/auxiliary-services/indianapolis/index.php>. Indianapolis parking information Parking is available for those traveling between the West Lafayette and Indianapolis campuses. Faculty, staff and students who will also be working or attending classes at the West Lafayette location will be able to use "A" surface lots and nongated parking garages after purchasing an IU Indianapolis parking permit. Faculty and staff who work primarily at the West Lafayette location should contact Purdue Parking after purchasing a permit to also request an IU Indianapolis permit. At this time, students in West Lafayette do not have parking reciprocity at the Indianapolis location. More information about parking at the two locations is available on the Purdue Parking website<https://www.purdue.edu/parking/permits/indianapolis/index.html>. Auxiliary Services is part of the Administrative Operations organization. The organization supports the university by providing safe, reliable and transformative services. Providing the Purdue community with transportation between the two campuses is just one way the organization helps power Purdue. -- Bmeroundtable-list mailing list Bmeroundtable-list(a)ecn.purdue.edu https://engineering.purdue.edu/ECN/mailman/listinfo/bmeroundtable-list

The goal of this series is to help trainees develop the resilience they need to navigate challenging situations at work and in life. The series will consist of five webinars, each followed by a small group discussion the following week. The webinars will highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for academic success and for thriving in research and healthcare careers. We will discuss the cultivation of skills to help trainees realize resilience and identify and deal with obstacles that get in their way. The small group discussions are a chance to engage in an active, facilitated conversation with peers related to the webinar materials. This series is an excellent leadership development opportunity to learn skills trainees can use for themselves, their career, and when they are a leader themselves. While trainees may participate in any of the webinars, it is best to participate in the entire series as the material relates and concepts will be developed throughout the series. Data shows that trainees who attended most of the Becoming the Resilient Scientist series felt that they have become more resilient and were better able to handle stress and conflict in their lives. The workshops and group discussions in the series are: Unit 1. An Introduction to Resilience and Wellness Unit 2. Exploring our Self-Talk: Cognitive Distortions and Imposter Fears Unit 3. Self-Advocacy and Assertiveness for Scientists Unit 4. Developing Feedback Resilience Unit 5. Managing Up to Maximize Mentoring Relationships Note: There will be no group discussion for Unit 5 The series will start on September 23rd, 2024, and will run until November 18th, 2024. There is no charge for participation, but advanced registration is required. Webinars will be recorded and shared with all registrants.

BME PhD Preliminary Exam Announcement for Peter Zoss (M. Ward, advisor)
by May, Sandra M 07 Aug '24

07 Aug '24

BME PhD Preliminary Exam Announcement for Peter Zoss (M. Ward, advisor) Everyone is invited to attend the public presentation beginning at 1:30pm. Title: Personal Digital Health Discovery and Management of Cognitive Performance during Spaceflight Date: Thursday August 22nd, 2024 Time: 1:30pm Location: MJIS 2001 and Zoom Join Zoom Meeting https://purdue-edu.zoom.us/j/98048240585?pwd=fzvIbVilRxxPW5WkbaCKj52potHXAZ…<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpurdue-ed…> Meeting ID: 980 4824 0585 Passcode: 476889 Committee: Drs. Matthew Ward (chair), Deva Chan, Maria Makin, Eric Palmer, and Steve Steinhubl Abstract: Long-term spaceflight missions expose astronauts to prolonged isolation, risking crew death with failure if performance cannot be maintained. Personal wearable devices and VR technology offer unique tools for us to understand mental health and cognitive performance through reflections of activity from the body's involuntary responses with respect to environmental influences and activity. Three steps must be taken to move towards improved cognitive performance monitoring in spaceflight missions. First, a system is needed to bridge the data sources from various equipment to collect and organize data on a constant and standard timescale. Second, using a combination of sensors from a state-of-the-art wearable medical monitor (e.g., heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, electrodermal activity, and skin temperature) and virtual reality technology, we can track environmental changes and daily activity in autonomic responses corresponding to daily activity. Third, with the establishment of baseline activity profiles in the collected data, patterns of relation can be established with cognitive performance metrics derived from the Cognition Test Battery. The degree of difficulty in quantifying performance is a challenge that has not yet been fully overcome. We expect our analytical methods and data collection systems will be able to find patterns in autonomic biomarkers from individuals to track cognitive functionality without depending on Earth-bound communications. The contextual information added from VR systems and daily activity logs allows for a more reliable perspective on collected data and performance metrics. The proposed system will allow for continuous monitoring of astronauts during long-term spaceflight missions to help maintain cognitive performance levels.

BME PhD Preliminary Exam Announcement for Adam Wright (Y. Tong, advisor)
by May, Sandra M 02 Aug '24

BME PhD Preliminary Exam Announcement for Adam Wright (Y. Tong, advisor) Everyone is invited to attend the public presentation beginning at 1:00 PM. Title: Clinically feasible functional MRI providing independent assessments of cerebrovascular stiffness and microcirculation in typical aging and Alzheimer's Disease cohorts Date: August 13th Time: 1:00 PM Location: MJIS 1083 Advisory committee: Yunjie Tong, Chair; Vitaliy L. Rayz; Igor A. Fernandes; Qiuting Wen Abstract: With over 50 million people affected globally, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. The progression of AD dementia is complex and involves multiple factors, with a notable decrease in cerebrovascular function linked to its development. Despite the importance of vascular health in AD prognosis, we lack adequate methods to assess the health of the brain’s blood vessels. To address these challenges, we will develop a non-invasive imaging tool using specialized processing on conventional resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) scans to measure cerebrovascular health, including vascular stiffness and microvascular health. These metrics will be measured in two large datasets: the Human Connectome Project (HCP) – Aging and the Indiana Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (IADRC). The HCP dataset, which includes over 700 participants aged 35 to 100 years, will provide insights into typical vascular aging. This will allow us to adjust for typical age-related changes when assessing the associations of cerebrovascular health with cognitive function across a spectrum of cognitive impairment in the IADRC dataset. The central hypothesis is that measures of vascular stiffness and microvascular function derived from specialized rs-fMRI image processing will significantly correlate with typical aging. After adjusting for typical aging, these measures are expected to significantly correlate with cognitive impairment within the spectrum of AD pathology. This study aims to develop non-invasive methods for measuring vascular stiffness and microvascular function in the brain, providing the potential to enhance our understanding of how vascular health impacts AD dementia.

FW: Purdue and CityBus negotiate free on-campus services and a reduced rate of $25/semester for off-campus services
by Gelfand, Johanna K 02 Aug '24

02 Aug '24

This came out of today's Board of Trustees meeting... From: Purdue University <purdueuniversity(a)communicate.purdue.edu> Sent: Friday, August 2, 2024 12:08 PM To: Gelfand, Johanna K <jo(a)purdue.edu> Subject: Purdue and CityBus negotiate free on-campus services and a reduced rate of $25/semester for off-campus services [https://image.communicate.purdue.edu/lib/fe3b11717064047e751476/m/1/385465d…] August 2, 2024 After being surprised by the CityBus announcement about off-campus bus fares, Purdue University reaffirmed our commitment to affordable transportation for students. Senior administrators worked and negotiated with CityBus on your behalf throughout the summer to arrive at the following solution for undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and staff: * On-campus routes will remain free to the Purdue community and do not require the purchase of a pass. * Beginning Sept. 3, off-campus riders will be required to show an off-campus semester pass or pay a ride fare prior to boarding. Semester passes will be available at a subsidized rate of $25, with Purdue covering the remaining $74. * Students living in University Residences Boiler Apartments (URBA) off campus will not need to pay $25 for an off-campus semester pass. Students, faculty and staff will receive additional information about how to obtain an off-campus pass in the coming days. Many members of our community rely on bus transportation to access campus, and we thank you for your patience as we arrived at this solution.
