An epidemiological study of dialysis patients conducted at the Renal Research Institute with the Katz School of Science and Health found that current recommendations for ultrafiltration in hemodialysis therapy may put heavier patients at greater risk of death
In their research article in the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology Ariella Mermelstein a graduate of the M A in Mathematics and Jochen Raimann an adjunct professor in the M in Biotechnology Management and Entrepreneurship reported that the currently recommended threshold of milliliters per hour per kilogram of body weight as the maximal ultrafiltration rate in hemodialysis therapy may put heavier patients at risk

With the help of an NSF grant Katz School mathematics Ph D candidate Samuel Akingbade is researching the mathematical possibility of continuously capturing energy derived from small amounts of vibration in human and natural activity
Energy harvesting devices which consist of systems of oscillating beams in for example skyscrapers trains and bridges are made up of piezoelectric materials which produce an electric charge under mechanical stress
Akingbade is creating a mathematical model that will try to determine the right amount of outside force on these beams that would overcome the effects of internal friction which stops the beams from vibrating
Three Katz School mathematics and physics researchers have developed a theoretical framework for predicting the possible shapes and gravitational fields of asteroids
The results published in the international journal Astrophysics and Space Science in March can be useful for spacecraft engineers developing landing designs for irregularly shaped celestial objects.The research was funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation
One of the paper central challenges was to find mathematical expressions for representing gravity on the surface of an irregularly shaped asteroid understanding that unlike on Earth gravity on these objects isn t constant said Fredy Zypman a professor of physics and co author of the paper Surface Gravity of Rotating Dumbbell Shapes with Marian Gidea professor and chair of the M and Ph D mathematics programs and Wai Ting Lam a doctoral alum in mathematics and now a member of the faculty at Yeshiva University Stern College for Women
Asteroids in the solar system can take on a variety of shapes
They are of particular interest to scientists and explorers because they re rich in minerals
The exploration of the irregular gravity fields is compelling said Lam
In particular dumbbell shapes are among those that have been observed for comets and asteroids
The Katz School researchers focused on dumbbell shaped or peanut shaped asteroids whose gravitational fields can vary widely on their surfaces because their mass is unevenly distributed as opposed to Earth a nearly rounded object that produces a relatively constant gravitational field
Dumbbells are among the shapes that have been observed for comets and asteroids making them both astronomically and mathematically interesting said Gidea
Because the gravitational field of an asteroid is complicated more irregular spacecrafts have to be very careful on their approach
Examples of oddly shaped asteroids include Hektor the largest Jupiter Trojan asteroid that has its own moon the Comet Hartley which was the target of a flyby in by NASA s
Deep Impact spacecraft and the trans Neptunian Arrokoth or Ultima Thule located in the Kuiper Belt which was the target of the New Horizons space probe flyby in
In addition to the general results for gravity on peanut shaped objects we also created a model for the shape of Hektor that can be described by simple equations
This formula gives us a possible family of shapes for this type of asteroid said Gidea
The peanut shaped asteroids aren t all identical
We had to figure out how many exist and the family of shapes and then we figured out the gravity at any point in the vicinity of these shapes
Zypman said the researchers also studied how the shape of an asteroid changes depending on its rotation
This knowledge is relevant for understanding how the asteroid formed initially when the object was still malleable and approaching its current shape

When Eliana Zachter a student in the M in Physician Assistant Studies program was prepping for a cesarean section with her surgical team at Bellevue Hospital she was warned by the resident physician that there d be a lot of blood
But Zachter who in high school had volunteered on her own in a hospital neonatal intensive care and maternity units was unfazed
Under bright and unnatural hospital lights Zachter placed a retractor through an incision the surgeon had made in the patient lower abdomen and then held it open with her hands to provide the surgeon clear access to the woman uterus
There was so much going on all at once but the Katz School PA program prepared me for that moment said Zachter
I was zoned in using my clinical skills and medical knowledge and at the same time fully conscious of the patient lying awake on the table
Physician Assistant Studies master students Noah Newlon Irvin Cespedes Jonathan Lehn and Michael Listro recently lobbied the New York state legislature for a bill that would make permanent a state executive order that has allowed physician assistants to practice without a supervising physician since
A recently published chapter on Abuse and Violence Prevention by Thomas Balga clinical assistant professor in the Katz School M in Physician Assistant Studies offers clinicians a guide for the comprehensive and compassionate care of the million children who are victims of abuse each year. Physician Assistant Studies master student Anthony Pagan watched intently the rise and fall of a patient chest as he lay on the operating table the noxious scent of burning flesh filling the air as a cauterizing instrument sliced through tissue
The surgeon made four incisions and Pagan a second year Katz School graduate student who was completing an internship at Good Samaritan Hospital on Long Island operated the thoracoscope a flexible tube with a light and tiny camera inserted into the patient chest that transmitted images of a cancerous lung to a video monitor
