The Gazette

They will divide and volunteer, for Baltimore’s sake. Nearly 1,000 Johns Hopkins students,

faculty, staff and alumni will fan out over Baltimore and beyond on Saturday to lend a hand to local nonprofit orga-

nizations and com-munity centers. The President’s Day of Service, organized by the Johns Hopkins Center for Social Concern, was spear-headed by President Ron Daniels when he took office in fall 2009 as part of his

commitment to serving the city. The initiative is an outgrowth of Involved, a former freshman day of ser-vice that introduced incoming Home-wood students to the city. Last year, nearly 800 students partici-pated in the one-day event that featured more than 40 service projects. Gia Grier-McGinnis, assistant direc-tor of the Center for Social Concern, said that the extra manpower, even if just for a day, can have a significant impact. “The nonprofits we have established relationships with look forward to this day, and the new agencies we are work-ing with are really excited to meet Johns Hopkins students and expose them to their agency’s work,” Grier-McGinnis said. “It introduces many students to volunteer opportunities.” This year’s event again features the theme “One Johns Hopkins, One Balti-more” and seeks to illustrate the trans-formative power of collective action and the positive change that Johns Hopkins can generate in the community. Stu-dents and Johns Hopkins personnel will participate in more than 40 projects. In addition to the Homewood-based effort, the President’s Day of Service will be replicated at the university’s East Baltimore, Peabody and Applied Physics Laboratory campuses, with roughly 200 people registered at each site.

The Gazette

More DIY than R2D2, a student-invented robot will help preserve and archive 115 years of photographic black his-

tory in Baltimore, and could soon be made available to museums and archives around the country. Thomas Smith, creator of the robot named Gado, spent a good portion of his senior year at Johns Hopkins tinkering on the machine, an open source robotic scanner designed for sensitive archival materials. He enjoyed the project so much, he never left. Smith, who graduated last May with a degree in cognitive science and anthro-pology, conceived of the device follow-ing a visit to Baltimore’s Afro-American newspaper in spring 2010. He hoped to add visual elements to an oral his-tory project he was working on with the Johns Hopkins Center for Africana Studies’ Diaspora Pathways Project. On the newspaper’s second floor, he found a treasure trove. By its estimation, the publication houses roughly 1.5 million photos—boxed up and sorted—that date back to the paper’s founding in 1892.

In the quest to understand genomes—how they’re built, how they’re orga-nized and what makes them work—a

team of Johns Hopkins researchers has engi-neered from scratch a computer-designed yeast chromosome and incorporated into its creation a new system that lets scientists intentionally rearrange the yeast’s genetic material. A report of their work appears Sept. 14 as an advance online publication in the journal Nature. “We have created a research tool that not only lets us learn more about yeast biology and genome biology but also holds out the possibility of someday designing genomes for specific purposes, like making new vaccines

or medications,” said Jef D. Boeke, a profes-sor of molecular biology and genetics, and director of the High Throughput Biology Center, at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Boeke notes that yeast is probably the best-studied organism with a nucleus and is “already used for everything from medicine to biofuel,” making it a good candidate for his team’s focus.

Emergency alert system at Homewood to be tested Tuesday

Homewood Campus Safety and Secu-rity will conduct a test of the campus siren/public address system and the

Johns Hopkins Emergency Alert text mes-saging system at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 20. The test will be a full-scale simultaneous activation of both systems. The siren/PA sys-tem, which is activated by radio signal from the Homewood Communications Center, is composed of speakers on Garland Hall, Whitehead Hall and the O’Connor Recre-ation Center. The sirens will simultaneously sound the alert tone and then sequentially broadcast the voice message, announcing, “This is a test of the Homewood campus emergency warning system.” Those who have subscribed to the text message alert system will receive a brief mes-sage that reads, “This is a test of the Home-wood Emergency Alert text message system. There is no emergency. Had there been an imminent threat additional information would follow.” Shortly after the public address broad-cast, an all-clear alert tone will sound, fol-lowed by the message saying, in part, “This has been a test of the Homewood campus emergency warning system. Had there been an actual emergency, you would have been given specific instructions on what to do.” Because the public address system incor-porates a silent self-test feature that exercises each module on a weekly basis, Campus Safety and Security will schedule “live” tests only three times a year. The main purpose of the exercise is to familiarize the Homewood community with the sound of the system. Except for these periodic tests, the system will be used only in the event of an incident or situation that presents a significant threat to the lives or safety of the campus community.

Trained generations of physicians in the art of interviewing patients

B y e k a t e r i n a P e s h e v a


James Patrick Connaughton, professor emeritus of psychiatry and pediatrics and a superbly talented clinician who treated

and cared for some of East Baltimore’s most vulnerable children, died on Sept. 11 at his Woodbrook home. The cause of death was pancreatic cancer. Connaughton, who was 80, had been treated for the disease at the Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Comprehen-sive Cancer Center, where he received out-standing medical care, family members say. “Jim was one of the giants of child psychi-atry at Hopkins, a master of psychotherapy and a gifted clinician with unparalleled skill for compassionately interviewing children,” said colleague and friend James Harris, director of Developmental Neuropsychiatry and a former director of Child Psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center. Connaughton was the founding director of the Johns Hopkins Children’s Men-tal Health Center, a community psychi-atric clinic that has helped generations of Baltimore’s children and youth deal with psychological trauma and behavioral prob-lems. Colleagues remember Connaughton as the backbone of the center, which he founded in 1981 and directed until 1993, and an unwavering presence in the clinic, taking care of patients and always running back and forth between the main hospital

and Caroline Street, where the center is located. During his 31 years at Johns Hopkins, Connaughton mentored generations of fledgling psychiatrists and taught them the art and science of interviewing children with mental health problems. He had a rare talent for talking to and connecting with children, a psychiatrist’s most valuable diagnostic tool. “You can’t fool a child, and those kids whose lives were one huge trauma knew they could trust him, and they loved him,” said Catherine DeAngelis, a professor of pedi-atrics at Johns Hopkins and former JAMA editor, who did a pediatric residency under Connaughton and later worked with him. “He was the most modest man of great integrity and love for children,” DeAngelis added. “He was underappreciated because

James Connaughton, pediatric psychiatrist, beloved teacher, 80he wasn’t boastful and didn’t do research. He took care of kids with problems—that’s what he did—and he did it like no one else I’d ever known.” “He could befriend a child in five minutes and talk to them on their level to get the most important information. I learned a lot from him about interviewing children and so did many others,” said former student Marco Grados, who is now clinical director of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Hop-kins Children’s. Maryland Pao, the clinical director of the National Institute of Mental Health and an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins, said that Connaughton was a formative influ-ence on her. She met Connaughton as a third-year medical student and went on to do a psychiatry rotation under him. “He played a pivotal role in my decision to become a child psychiatrist,” said Pao, who subsequently nominated Connaughton for a teaching award at Johns Hopkins, one of several he received. Colleagues and students remember Con-naughton as a mesmerizing storyteller whose charming brogue and gregarious, feisty per-sonality made him a beloved figure. His passion for helping the most under-served and traumatized children was con-tagious, Pao added. “He had a great turn of phrase and fired up these kids’ imaginations, and had the same effect on his students,” she said. Born and raised in Dublin, Connaughton graduated with a medical degree from Uni-versity College Dublin and, in 1958, with his wife, Monica, set out for the United States for a psychiatric residency at the Seton Psychiatric Institute in Baltimore. From 1961 to 1965, Connaughton taught and practiced at Marquette University in

Wisconsin, where he also worked as a senior staff psychiatrist at Milwaukee Psychiatric Hospital. During this period, Connaughton also was involved in the design of the Peace Corps program and the training of its first crop of volunteers. In 1965, Connaughton returned to Mary-land and spent the next 31 years at Hopkins Children’s as a clinician, a teacher and a mentor. Between 1967 and 1981, he directed numerous programs at Johns Hopkins and consulted with many local and regional mental health clinics, including the Dundalk Mental Health Clinic, Associated Catho-lic Charities, Oldfields School, Children’s Guild, John F. Kennedy Institute, Villa Maria Residential Treatment Center and Francis Scott Key Community Psychiatry Program. He worked closely with the City of Balti-more Department of Education, community mental health programs and the East Balti-more Mental Health Center. Taking care of underserved and troubled children and supervising psychiatric resi-dents remained Connaughton’s unwavering focus until his retirement in 1997. A voracious learner, he enrolled in the Business of Medicine program at Johns Hop-kins and, in 2002, earned a master’s degree. Connaughton was elected a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and a fellow of the Royal Col-lege of Psychiatrists in the United Kingdom. He won Teacher of the Year Award at Johns Hopkins several times, an accolade bestowed by medical residents on their men-tors. This, his family said, was among the accomplishments he cherished most. Connaughton is survived by his wife of 54 years, Monica; their three sons, two daugh-ters and 14 grandchildren; a brother; and a sister.

The fossil of ‘Propanoplosaurus mary-landicus’ measures only 13cm long, just shorter than the length of a dollar bill.

Fossil of newborn dinosaur discovered in Md.B y s a r a h l e Wi n


Researchers at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, with help from an amateur fossil hunter

in College Park, Md., have described the fossil of an armored dinosaur hatchling. It is the youngest nodosaur ever discovered, and a founder of a new genus and species that lived approximately 110 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous Era. Nodo-saurs have been found in diverse locations worldwide, but they’ve rarely been found in the United States. The findings are pub-lished in the Sept. 9 issue of the Journal of Paleontology. “Now we can learn about the develop-ment of limbs and the development of skulls early on in a dinosaur’s life,” said David Weishampel, a professor of anatomy at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “The very small size also reveals that there was a nearby nesting area, or rookery, since it couldn’t have wandered far from where it hatched. We have the oppor-tunity to find out about dinosaur parenting and reproductive biology, as well as more about the lives of Maryland dinosaurs in general.” The fossil was discovered in 1997 by Ray Stanford, a dinosaur tracker who often spent time looking for fossils close to his home. This time, he was searching a creek bed after an extensive flood. Stanford identified it as a nodosaur and called Weishampel, a paleon-tologist and expert in dinosaur systematics. Weishampel and his colleagues established the fossil’s identity as a nodosaur by recog-nizing a distinctive pattern of bumps and grooves on the skull. They then did a com-puter analysis of the skull shape, comparing its proportions to those of 10 skulls from dif-ferent species of ankylosaurs, the group that contains nodosaurs. They found that this

dinosaur was closely related to some of the nodosaur species, although it had a shorter snout overall than the others. Comparative measurements enabled them to designate a new species, Propanoplosaurus marylandicus. In addition to being the youngest nodosaur ever found, it is the first hatchling of any dinosaur species ever recovered in the east-ern United States, Weishampel says. The area where the fossil was found had originally been a flood plain, where Weishampel says that the dinosaur drowned. Cleaning the fossil revealed a hatchling nodosaur on its back, much of its body imprinted along with the top of its skull. Weishampel determined the dinosaur’s age at time of death by analyzing the degree of development and articulation capability of the ends of the bones, as well as deducing whether the bones themselves were porous, as young bones would not be fully solid. Size was also a clue. The body in the tiny fossil was only 13 cm long, just shorter than

the length of a dollar bill. Adult nodosaurs are estimated to have been 20 to 30 feet long. Weishampel also used the position and quality of the fossil to deduce the dinosaur’s method of death and preservation: drown-ing and getting buried by sediment in the stream. Eggshells have never been found preserved in the vicinity, and by the layout of the bones and the size of some very small nodosaur footprints found nearby, Weisham-pel was led to believe that the dinosaur was a hatchling, rather than an embryo, because it was able to walk independently. “We didn’t know much about hatchling nodosaurs at all prior to this discovery,” said Weishampel, who is affiliated with the Johns Hopkins Center for Functional Anatomy and Evolution. “And this is cer-tainly enough to motivate more searches for dinosaurs in Maryland, along with more analysis of Maryland dinosaurs.” Stanford has donated the hatchling nodo-saur to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, where it is now on display to the public and also available for research. This study was funded by the Johns Hop-kins Center for Functional Anatomy and Evolution. Valerie DeLeon, also of the Cen-ter for Functional Anatomy and Evolution, was an additional author.

some, Boeke says, the goal was to make it maximally useful to researchers by laying down some ground rules: First, the product could not compromise yeast survival; sec-ond, it must be as streamlined as possible; and third, it had to contain the capacity for genetic flexibility and change. Using the already known full genetic code—or DNA sequences—of the yeast genome as a starting point, Johns Hopkins graduate student Sarah Richardson wrote a software program for making a series of sys-tematic changes to the DNA sequence. The changes were planned to subtly change the code and remove some of the repetitive and less-used regions of DNA between genes, and to generate a mutated “version 2.0” of a yeast cell’s original 9R chromosome. The smallest chromosome arm in the yeast genome, 9R contains about 100,000 base pairs of DNA and represents about 1 percent of the single-celled organism’s genome. Building the actual chromosome started with stringing together individual bases of DNA that were then assembled into longer segments. Large segments of about 10,000 base pairs were finally put into live yeast cells and essentially swapped for the native counterpart in the chromosome, a process for which yeast are naturally adept. In addition to 9R, the team made a smaller piece of the chromosome 6L. Yeast cells containing the synthetic chromosomes were tested for their ability to grow on different nutrients and in different conditions, and in each case came out indistinguishable from natural yeast. The Johns Hopkins team says that what distinguishes this constructed chromosome from the native version—and sets it apart from other synthetic genome projects—is an “inducible evolution system” called SCRaMbLE, short for Synthetic Chromo-some Rearrangement and Modification by Lox-P mediated Evolution. “We developed SCRaMbLE to enable us to pull a mutation trigger, essentially causing the synthetic chromosome to rearrange itself and introducing changes similar to what might happen during evolution, but without the long wait,” Boeke said. Why build in the scrambling system? To change multiple things at once, says Boeke, an action that is anathema among experi-mental scientists, who traditionally change only one variable at a time. Nature is never that well-controlled, Boeke says. The team activated SCRaMbLE in yeast containing both the synthetic 9R and 6L chromosomes, then analyzed the DNA from the yeast cells. Testing this population of

Continued from page 1

Yeast SCRaMbLEd yeast fed various nutrients, the scientists found that some grew fast, some slowly and others really slowly, and some of the fast-growing ones had very specific defects resulting from specific gene loss, showing that SCRaMbLE does indeed introduce random variation. When the researchers analyzed the molecular structure of the synthetic 9R and 6L chromosomes from this SCRaMbLEd population, they found chromosomes with small deletions, rearrangements and other alterations, at wildly varying locations. “If you think of the yeast genome as a deck of cards, we now have a system by which we can shuffle it and/or remove differ-ent combinations of 5,000 of those cards to get lots of different decks from the same starter deck,” Boeke said. “While one derivative deck might yield good hands for poker, another might be better suited for pinochle. By shuffling the DNA according to our specifications, we hope to be able to custom-design organisms that perhaps will grow better in adverse environments, or maybe make 1 percent more ethanol than native yeast.” Boeke says that the 9R and 6L experi-ments are “the beginning of a big project whose ultimate goal is to synthesize the whole yeast genome (about 6,000 genes) and SCRaMbLE the 5,000 likely to be individu-ally dispensable. And he wants to make the tool available to anyone who wants to use it, without intellectual property protection. Major support for this study came from the National Science Foundation, with con-tributions from Microsoft, the Department of Energy and the Fondation pour la Recher-che Medicale. In addition to Boeke and Richardson, Johns Hopkins scientists who contributed to the Nature study are Jessica S. Dymond, Candice E. Coombes, Timothy Babatz, Joy Wu Schwerzmann, Heloise Muller, Naray-ana Annaluru, Annabel C. Boeke, Junbiao Dai, Srinivasan Chandrasegaran and Joel S. Bader. Other contributors were William J. Blake, of Codon Devices; and Derek L. Lindstrom and Daniel E. Gottschling, both of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Cen-ter.

scanned and archived 1,000 photos, which are available in either print-ready or high-resolution electronic formats. In a stroke of good fortune, most of the photos had information on the subjects taped or stapled to the back, either full text or words written in grease pencil. Smith’s robot is able to scan this information and use it as metadata so that the photos can be searched by subject, name, location, year or other category. In June, Smith launched phase two of Project Gado to create a more-user-friendly, slimmed-down version of the machine. Gado 2, the “IKEA version” as Smith likes to call it, will be sold as a kit that staff at smaller archives and museums can assemble and use to digitize their photographic hold-ings. He wants to keep the cost to $500. “The goal is to find other small archives who want to digitize their collections,” Smith said. “The ideal user is an archive with a large volume of relatively uniform materials and few human resources. The machine is perfect for something like a newspaper, since the paper’s business process resulted in a lot of images produced and stored at much the same size and in much the same way.” Since Gado is an open source device, the public can use any aspect of the machine and apply it to wherever low-cost, autono-mous digitization process is needed. To make phase two possible, Smith received a grant from The Abell Foundation and funds from the JHU Sheridan Librar-ies. The project is being managed by Smith through the university’s Center for Social Concern in partnership with The Afro, the Center for Africana Studies and the Sheri-dan Libraries. Smith said that images of everyday Afri-can-American life are scarce, a situation that makes the newspaper’s photos so valu-able. The collection includes images of WWII soldiers, the civil rights era, street parties, local leaders, families and documen-tation of nearly 50 years of the newspaper’s “The Clean Block” campaign that started in the 1930s. The successful campaign, an annual event, sought to improve the physi-cal appearance of, and reduce crime in, vari-ous Baltimore neighborhoods. “Through just these photos, the collection provides a block-by-block visual history of the city,” he said.

The 2011 influenza vaccine will be administered free of charge to eligible employees of The Johns Hopkins

University beginning late this month. The vaccination sessions begin on Tuesday, Sept. 27, and continue at locations across the uni-versity over a two-week span through Tues-day, Oct. 11. A full schedule of vaccination sessions is online at www.hopkinsmedicine .org/hse/occupational_health/flu_campaign .html#HW. Again this year, only one flu shot is needed. The vaccine for H1N1, the pan-demic strain of flu from two years ago, is included in the shot along with the vaccine for two other strains of flu expected to be in wide circulation this year. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that everyone 6 months of age or older be vaccinated for flu

every year. For details, go to www.cdc.gov/flu/flu_vaccine_updates.htm. Those eligible for the Johns Hopkins flu vaccination program are full-time uni-versity employees, and their spouses or same-sex domestic partners; and part-time employees for whom the university is the primary employer, and their spouses and same-sex domestic partners. Children are not eligible. Employees must accompany their spouse or domestic partner at the time of vaccina-tion. University identification is required. Everyone is reminded to wear clothing that makes the upper arm, the site of the flu shot, accessible. Anyone with questions should contact Occupational Health Services at 410-955-6211 (East Baltimore office) or 410-516-0450 (Homewood office).

Free flu shots begin Sept. 27 for eligible university employees


Digitizing

more-based company is the longest-running family-owned African-American newspaper in the nation. Its photo collection is a visual history of daily African-American life in Baltimore up until the present. The Diaspora Pathways Project is a long-term initiative aimed at better understand-ing the changing landscape of the living African Diaspora, especially as it pertains to the greater Baltimore area. The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation awarded Johns Hopkins $476,000 for the initiative’s centerpiece, the Diaspora Pathways Archival Access Project, which involves collaborating with The Afro to open its historic archives to access by scholars and others. In November 2007, the DPAAP selected five students from Johns Hopkins, Goucher College and Morgan State University as its initial intern cohort to uncover and describe the contents of the paper’s archives. Their work began in January 2008. The objectives of the project, which is supported by the univeristy’s Center for Educational Resources, are to identify important unprocessed collections at the newspaper, inventory and organize the col-lection, and ultimately create an online database for searching the material. Problem was, Smith found, there was not yet an easy way to reference and disseminate the newspaper’s photos. The Afro wanted to digitize the collection and make it available to the public, but the newspaper had only one person to manually scan the photos. Why not automate the process, Smith thought. He devised Gado (a West African word for inheritance), a 3-foot-wide by 2-foot-deep robotic arm that is able to lift flat and delicate materials using suction, place them on a scanner and scan them into a database or computer file system. The Center for Africana Studies provided funding to make Smith’s vision a reality. Using the funds, he pieced together some precision-cut wood, tubing and metal and gave it all a custom circuit-board brain. He did all this for $496. Gado worked. At a rate of a photo every two minutes, the robot in testing session

Gado 2 will not only be smaller and cheaper but faster, too. Smith plans for the device to scan images in 30 seconds. Gado 2 will feed the scanned photos into two separate databases, one for images at a lower resolution available online free to anyone, and the second to house high-resolution images capable of being blown up to billboard size without distortion and available for a fee. “This will help create a new revenue stream for the organization and keep the project sustainable,” Smith said. “Basically, the idea for Gado 2 was to reduce complex-ity and use the cost savings to source and manufacture higher-quality parts to have a faster and more robust machine for the same price tag as before.” Historical images such as those on file at The Afro are sought after by other news publications, documentary filmmakers and historians. A historical image license can be sold for between $200 and $700, depending on the medium. Smith said he anticipates that Gado 2, once completed, will scan 20,000 more images this

year, enough to launch a licensing website. He also wants to sign an agreement with at least one other archive or museum. Moira Hinderer, an archivist with the Sheridan Libraries and a lecturer in the History Department and the Center for Africana Studies, said, “The Afro’s collec-tion is just such an incredibly rich visual resource in African-American history. It will keep scholars busy for years. It’s my hope that Tom’s efforts will bring these photographs before a much broader audi-ence,” she said. “Certainly this could be a wonderful resource for local educators and students.” Smith currently works on Gado 2 in the basement of the Center for Social Con-cern’s building on North Charles Street, just blocks from The Afro. While he appreciates the use of the space, he admits that the dimly lit, unfinished area is not an ideal location to work on sensitive machinery. Smith plans to move the project into the Emerging Technology Center at the Johns Hopkins at Eastern campus later this month. G


JOHN G. RANGOS MEDAL OF HONOR IN CREATIVE THINKING

FIRST PRIZE - $20,000 & SECOND PRIZE - $5,000 THIRD PRIZE - $1,000 The John G. Rangos Medal

The Riddle of Cancer Therapy

Most metastatic cancers remain incurable and continue to kill one out of four Americans. Even initially responsive tumors quickly become resistant to therapy and become untreatable. In contrast, a small number of advanced cancers do not exhibit this type of therapeutic resistance. These include testicular cancer and some forms of childhood leukemias and lymphomas. These cancer types have over 80% sustained complete remission rates. Lance Armstrong is a famous example of this type of curable cancer. It is completely unknown why some metastatic cancers are curable while the vast majority are not. If we understood the reasons for these favorable results, we might be able to apply them to the more resistant forms of human tumors. Purpose: To inspire students to generate original and creative ideas to solve this riddle we are challenging

Johns Hopkins trainees to compete for the Rangos Medal along with a cash prize. We will also assist the trainees in ways to test their ideas.

Eligibility: Open to currently enrolled full-time trainees at any division of The Johns Hopkins University including undergraduate, graduate and medical students, residents and fellows. Answers must be the ideas of the trainees and cannot have been funded from another source to be eligible. All aspects of the student’s idea and this award must comply with all Johns Hopkins University policies.

Process: Applicants must prepare an essay of no longer than five pages (single spaced), including references,

with scientific support that addresses the riddle of cancer described above. A University-wide panel will independently score the essays and the top five will be invited to give a presentation of their idea. The awardees will be selected from these presenters.

Homewood

Five Johns Hopkins graduate students who are applying the latest advances in biology and technology to the pre-

vention and treatment of health problems such as cancer and brain disorders have been named to the 2012 class of Siebel Scholars. The merit-based program provides $35,000 to each student for use in his or her final year of graduate studies. The Johns Hopkins recipients, who expect to receive their doctoral degrees in May, were among 85 students selected this year from prominent graduate schools in the United States and China, including Har-vard, Princeton, MIT and Stanford. The Siebel Scholars program was founded in 2000 by the Siebel Foundation to rec-ognize the most talented students at the world’s leading graduate schools of business, computer science and bioengineering. The program’s more than 700 recipients from 19 graduate programs serve as advisers to the Siebel Foundation and work collaboratively to find solutions to society’s most pressing problems. At Johns Hopkins, the Siebel program supports doctoral students in bioengineering studies. This year’s recipients are pursuing their degrees in the university’s Department of Biomedical Engineering, which is shared by the School of Medicine and Whiting School of Engineering, and the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, which resides in the Whiting School. The 2012 Johns Hopkins Siebel Scholar honorees are: • Manisha Aggarwal, of Ghaziabad, India: Under the supervision of Susumu Mori, a professor of radiology in the School of Medicine, Aggarwal has been using a

technology called high-field diffusion tensor magnetic resonance micro-imaging to view white matter in mouse brains, a key step toward developing new ways to conduct brain research in humans. • Hannah Carter, of Louisville, Ky.: Under the supervision of Rachel Karchin, an assistant professor of biomedical engineering, Carter is using computer technology to study the role of genetic mutations in cancer. By teasing out the few mutations responsible for tumor growth and drug resistance, she hopes to speed up the search for drug targets and identify which tumors are most likely to respond to treatment by anti-cancer drugs. • Stephanie I. Fraley, of Chattanooga, Tenn.: Under the supervision of Denis Wirtz, a professor of chemical and biomo-lecular engineering, Fraley is investigating the basics behind how cancer cells spread

Five engineering doctoral students named Siebel Scholars

the disease through the body and how this might be prevented. Her work has led to one patent filing and the beginning of a diagnostics-based start-up company. • Donny Hanjaya-Putra, of Surabaya, Indonesia: Under the supervision of Sharon Gerecht, an assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, Hanjaya-Putra designs three-dimensional scaffolds that enable stem cells to grow, differentiate and form functional networks of tiny blood vessels. His goal is to provide a blood supply that will support efficient human tissue and organ transplantation.

• Suneil Hosmane, of Dekalb, Ill.: Under the supervision of Nitish Thakor, a professor of biomedical engineering, Hosmane has developed innovative micro-devices that have shed light on new communication pathways that govern neurodegenerative diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and trans-verse myelitis. Siebel Scholars are selected from among students who rank at the top of their class. They are chosen by the deans of their respec-tive schools on the basis of outstanding academic achievement and demonstrated leadership. “Being recognized as one of the nation’s top bioengineering programs is a terrific honor for the school and for our five outstanding gradu-ate students,” said Nick Jones, the Benjamin T. Rome Dean of the Whiting School. “The distinction provides our students with entry into a community of exceptionally talented future leaders and expands their opportunities for entrepreneurship and collaboration—goals that are integral to our academic program.” Karen Roter Davis, executive director of the Siebel Scholars Foundation, added, “We are proud to support the Siebel Scholars Class of 2012 as they collaborate and forge lifelong ties with this engaged community of leaders. They are joining an exceptional group of tal-ented individuals working together with the Siebel Foundation to address critical societal issues in health, food and energy.” In October, current and alumni Siebel Scholars will meet in Virginia to explore the science, applications, benefits and risks of synthetic biology with world-renowned scientific, industry, ethics and policy experts.

The Johns Hopkins Student Outreach Resource Center, better known as SOURCE, will coordinate activities for the schools of Public Health, Nursing and Medicine. Mindi Levin, director and founder of SOURCE, said that roughly 200 people will participate in eight projects around the East Baltimore campus, including meal preparation and ser-vice at Our Daily Bread, encouraging HIV testing at the Shepherd Clinic and outreach work with the mobile unit of Sisters Together and Reaching, known as STAR. Grier-McGuiness said that the other divi-sions were added to make this truly a univer-sitywide event under one banner. Homewood volunteers will help mentor children at local schools, put on talent shows, work at food providers, plant gardens, paint and help refurbish buildings, clean streams and contribute to a host of other projects. One group will travel to the Reservoir Hill area to participate in a large-scale landscaping project to clean up and create gardens and green spaces at five different sites in the community. Another group of volunteers will go to 901 Arts, a space on Montpelier Street

dedicated to providing arts to Waverly com-munity residents, especially neighborhood youth. The site hosts visual art classes, drawing classes, piano lessons and monthly Saturday workshops for different age groups. The volunteers will put up fliers to recruit donations and support, organize art supplies, paint and get creative with sidewalk chalk in front of the Waverly Library. “We made an attempt this year to have fewer but bigger projects so that we could send more students to each location,” Grier-McGinnis said. More than 40 student groups will partici-pate. A 12-person student planning commit-tee helped coordinate the day’s activities. Grier-McGinnis said that the hope is that the projects spark interest in volunteering and expose participants to the needs of the community. “It’s about creating awareness to the chal-lenges that people in the community face,” she said. “Ideally, we would like them to stay involved and delve deeper into volunteer work during their time at Johns Hopkins.” The Homewood event kicks off at 11 a.m. at the O’Connor Recreation Center with opening remarks from President Daniels. The volunteers will work from noon to 4 p.m. and then return to Homewood for a post-service party to include a raffle and a performance by the AllNighters, JHU’s only all-male a cappella group.

A new study by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Center for Injury Research and Policy finds that heli-

copters that service the drilling platforms and vessels in the Gulf of Mexico crash on average more than six times per year, result-ing in an average of five deaths per year. From 1983 to 2009, 178 crashes resulted in 139 deaths, including 41 pilots and three co-pilots. Mechanical failure was the most common cause, leading to 68 crashes (38 percent of the total), followed by bad weather leading to 29 (16 percent of the total). While the challenges such as bad weather and long travel distances associated with helicopter flights related to oil and gas operations in the gulf are recognized, this study is noteworthy for examining the circumstances of the crashes. The article is published in the September issue of Avia-tion, Space and Environmental Medicine. Researchers from the Center for Injury Research and Policy, part of the Johns Hop-kins Bloomberg School of Public Health, examined fatal and nonfatal crash records of the National Transportation Safety Board from 1983 to 2009. Analyses determined that the most common result of mechanical fail-ure in both fatal and nonfatal crashes was loss of engine power, which occurred in almost one-third of fatal crashes. The majority of forced landings following mechanical failure occurred in water, with 20 percent resulting in the sinking of the helicopter despite the fact that most helicopters are equipped with pilot-activated flotation devices. Bad weather was the second most com-mon precipitating factor for fatal and nonfatal crashes and was responsible for the largest number of deaths. In fact, bad

weather was the only factor that signifi-cantly increased the risk of pilot death when a crash occurred. Pilot error was a major contributor to 83 crashes (47 percent), with poor decision making the most prevalent error. For example, the NTSB conclusion for many of the bad-weather crashes was that the pilot should not have flown given the forecast or observed bad weather. “This study raises concern about the safety of helicopter flights related to oil and gas operations in the Gulf of Mexico, particu-larly during bad weather,” said Susan P. Baker, a professor with the Center for Injury Research and Policy and the paper’s lead author. “Our findings suggest that efforts to reduce crashes and deaths must address mechanical failure, nonactivation of flota-tion devices and pilot error.” Baker is a licensed private pilot and received the Aero-space Medical Association’s Harry G. Mose-ley Award in 2010 for her work applying the public health model to aviation safety. The researchers also examined crash trends over the study time period and found an increase in the most recent time period, 8.2 annually during 2000 to 2009 versus 5.6 dur-ing 1983 to 1999. Following 2007, however, the researchers measured a decrease in crashes. “While the apparent deterioration in safety over time is alarming, I am encour-aged by the most recent data,” Baker said. “Only time will tell whether this is a tem-porary statistical blip or the beginning of a positive trend.” Additional authors of the study are Den-nis F. Shanahan, associate faculty at the Center for Injury Research and Policy; Wren Haaland, consultant to the Center for Injury Research and Policy; and Joanne Brady and Guohua Li, both of Columbia University. The research was funded by the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Johns Hopkins University astronomer Joseph Silk has been awarded the 2011 Balzan Prize, for his pioneering work

on the infant universe. The $950,000 award is given annually to people or organizations that have made outstanding achievements in the fields of the natural sciences, humanities and culture, as well as for peace-promoting endeavors. Silk, a research professor in the Henry A. Rowland Department of Physics and Astronomy in Johns Hopkins’ Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, will be pre-sented with his prize by the International Balzan Prize Foundation in a ceremony on Nov. 18 in Berne, Switzerland. The foundation is located in both Zurich and Milan. Silk was recognized for his work on the early universe, and his research into the effects of various physical processes and phenomena, including dark matter and the fluctuations of cosmic background radiation. “We have made immense progress in early universe studies since I began my research career,” said Silk, who was hon-ored for his project The Early Universe (from the Planck Time to the First Galaxies). “The major advance that has impacted my research is the measurement of the initial fluctuations in the cosmic micro-wave background. These characterize the

seeds of galaxy formation. But we still have a long way to go, both in terms of observation and theory, before we can say that we fully understand the evolution of cosmic structure.” Born in London in 1942, Silk studied at the University of Cambridge and Har-vard University, was a postdoctoral fel-low at Cambridge and Princeton Univer-sity, and has taught at the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Oxford. He has written or co-authored more than 500 publications. “Dr. Silk is one of the world’s leading theoretical astrophysicists,” said Daniel Reich, chair of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins. “Over a research career spanning more than 40 years, he has made numerous major contributions to the study of cosmology, galaxy and star formation, and dark matter. His work has informed and motivated many of the crucial experiments done over this time in these fields. This award is richly deserved.” The International Balzan Prize Foun-dation was established in 1978 by the family of Eugenio Balzan, a journalist who made Switzerland his home after fleeing Fascist oppression of the media in his native Italy. It focuses on fields that may often be overlooked by other foundations. The winners of the prize—the others this year were in jurisprudence, musicol-ogy and epigenetics—must use half the prize for research work, preferably involv-ing young scholars and researchers.
