DISCOVERY PARK

Hello from the Oncological Sciences Center,
 
I hope your June is off to a great start!  We have begun focusing on some of our fall events, and would like to reach out to you on behalf of our Cancer Culture and Community program.  This amazing program started in 2007 and explores our response to cancer expressed through the arts and literature. This is truly a unique program that blends science and the arts!
 
In anticipation of a visit this fall to Purdue University by graphic novelist Harvey Pekar and illustrator Frank Stack, of Our Cancer Year, we are looking for cancer stories.  These stories will be compiled and sent to local graphic artists to create our own, Our Cancer Year.  This will be on display November 4 in the Purdue Memorial Union, Rm 118.  Please see the flyer below for more information and how you can share your story.

PANDEMIC PREPAREDNESS

 

Faculty, staff, and students who have fever or other influenza symptoms should seek medical care. PLEASE DO NOT REPORT TO WORK WHILE ILL.

Birck Nanotechnology Center staff will be notified of an emergency situation by telephone in the order set out in the BNC’s Phone Tree. BNC faculty members will receive an e-mail message from Monica Allain or Jim Cooper.

Members of the Faculty (Professors and Research Professors) are responsible for contacting each of their group members, including graduate students, undergraduate researchers, postdoctoral fellows and research scientists. Specific instructions should be conveyed by phone if possible. All graduate students should register for the Purdue University e-mail alert system at http://news.uns.purdue.edu/mail.html.

Additional information for pandemic and emergency preparation may be found at www.itap.purdue.edu/tlt/faculty and http://www.purdue.edu/emergency_preparedness
