George Shields, vice president of academic affairs and provost and professor of chemistry at Furman University, has been awarded a $333,358 National Science Foundation (NSF) Research in Undergraduate Institutions (RUI) grant to support his research efforts in computational chemistry. The three-year grant is entitled “RUI: Thermodynamics of Nucleation: Atmospheric Aerosols from Acids, Bases, and Peptides.” “This award reflects the extraordinary and continued success of Dr. Shields’ research efforts in the field of computational chemistry, complementing his national accomplishments developing the MERCURY Consortium,” said John Wheeler, Furman chemistry professor and associate provost for integrative science. “His award is particularly exciting for the university since it comes on the heels of competitive NSF-RUI grants awarded to Furman professors Erin Wamsley (psychology) and Mary Elizabeth Anderson (chemistry) over the past few months.” Shields came to Furman in 2016 from Bucknell University, where he served as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and was a professor in the chemistry department.

Furman health sciences professors advance guidelines for preventing injury, death for college athletes

Organization:

Furman University

Location:

Greenville

Jul 12, 2019

View details

Furman University Health Sciences professors Tony Caterisano, Matt Feigenbaum and Ben Snyder have co-authored a paper with other researchers that establishes national guidelines aimed at preventing injuries and deaths related to college sports training. The paper, a result of two years’ research commissioned by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), was underwritten by the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association (CSCCa) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). It represents the first ever collaboration of the two organizations since they were formed. The landmark consensus guidelines paper, “CSCCa and NSCA Joint Consensus Guidelines for Transition Periods: Safe Return to Training Following Inactivity,” was published in the June issue of Strength and Conditioning Journal. The study focuses on protecting athletes returning to training during “transition periods,” or the first two-to-four weeks of mandatory training following inactivity. The authors cite recent statistics that show a marked increase in the incidence of injuries and deaths related to exertional heat illness (EHI), which can lead to heat stroke; exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) resulting from muscle strain or trauma; and cardiorespiratory failure during the first weeks of transition.

Computational chemistry conference at Furman spurs innovation, academic diversity

More than 100 chemists from across the nation will convene in Greenville when Furman University hosts the 18th annual MERCURY Conference for Undergraduate Computational Chemistry July 15-19. Founded in 2001, Molecular Education and Research Consortium in Undergraduate Computational Chemistry (MERCURY) is a National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded organization comprised of 29 computational chemistry faculty from 25 primarily undergraduate institutions in the United States. MERCURY faculty, undergraduates and others have gathered each year beginning in 2002 to exchange ideas in computational chemistry and increase the visibility of their work. Since the inception of MERCURY, a commitment to bolstering diversity and inclusion in the academic community has been a driving principle. Of the 29 MERCURY members, 14 are female and nine are faculty of color. From 2001, when the first NSF-Major Research Instrumentation Program (MRI) grant was funded, until summer 2018, MERCURY faculty have worked with 843 students on research projects. Seventy-five percent of MERCURY’s undergraduate research students have been female or male students of color, and about half of the graduates go on to secure advanced degrees in STEM fields.

Columbia University Brings Inclusive Teaching to Global Platform with Free Online Course

View details

On June 26, 2019, the Columbia University Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) will launch the first ever MOOC (massive open online course) dedicated entirely to the topic of inclusive teaching in higher education. The MOOC, titled Inclusive Teaching: Supporting All Students in the College Classroom, provides practical, accessible, and usable strategies that instructors can implement in their classrooms to create and maintain a supportive learning environment for all students. The self-paced course is open to all. Registration is now open. Inclusive teaching is a topic that has received increased attention on college campuses around the country and world. Despite the fact that research has shown that creating an inclusive teaching environment is beneficial for all students’ learning, issues around inclusion and disinclusion are rarely discussed in practical terms. This course aims to provide instructors with tools that are immediately applicable to their teaching contexts. The course was created following the success of the Guide for Inclusive Teaching at Columbia, written and released by the Columbia CTL in 2017.
