## Vermont‘sExperience WithDual DiagnosisByCharlie BissDirector of Child, Adolescent And Family UnitState of Vermont

## Issues Experienced

- Increased incidence of Autism, Pervasive Developmental Disorder,
-    and dual diagnosed.
- Lack of leadership to claim this
-    vulnerable population.

## Issues Experienced Continued

- Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities have a long history of cultural differences, turf battles, diversity of
-    funding and lack of cross-training.
- Developmental Disabilities is not a full mandated partner in Act 264 (interagency coordination law).
- High number of dual diagnosed children in child welfare, Juvenile Justice, out-of-state educational placement, and hospital.

## Issues Experienced Continued

- These children are usually identified at times of significant family and school crises.
- There is a lack of trained professionals to make effective differential diagnoses and to treat and support these children and their families.

## Action Taken

- Invited Developmental Disabilities to become part of Act 264.
- Interagency groups at the local and state level discussed the policy and treatment issues for this population and their families were invited to these discussions.

## Action Taken Continued

- Encouraged treatment teams to develop appropriate plans of care for these children regardless of the funding.
- Discussed the poor outcomes as a result of not serving these children well:
- 		- inappropriate hospitalization
-         - out-of-state placements by school
-         - custody relinquishment to child welfare
-         - incarceration by Juvenile Justice.

## Action Taken Continued

**Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities jointly applied for and received state funds for children with Pervasive Developmental Disorders.**
**Mental Health works collaboratively with early childhood professionals (e.g., Part C) and with pediatricians to identify early onset of social/emotional problems.**

## Lessons Learned

- System of Care model works for these children.
- Training professionals is large infrastructure issue.
- Early detection is essential.

## Lessons Learned Continued

- System of Care philosophy takes a long time to learn.
- This population is growing in numbers and we must act _now_!
- Interagency councils at the state and local level that are mandated to meet regularly can address barriers.

## Slide 10

## Best Practice

- Interagency collaboration, early detection, a trained workforce and family involvement are essential in providing the effective services and supports to a child with dual diagnosis and their family.

## Recommendations

- Insist on interagency collaboration and the system of care model when awarding any grant, waiver, cooperative agreement, etc.
- Allow for a mental health/developmental disability child home and community based waiver (1915c).
- Develop a multidisciplinary training program for staff working with this population.

## MODIS Land ISIN Grid

- MODIS Land Validation Workshop
- January 22, 2001
- Robert WolfeNASA GSFC Code 922, Raytheon ITSSMODIS Land Science Team Support Group

## Land Product Characteristics

- HDF-EOS Format
- Average size is about 70 MB

- Sept. 26, 2000

## MODLAND Grids

**Fine** resolution grids for the L2G, 3 and 4 products are based on two map projections:
- Integerized Sinusoidal Grid (ISIN)
- Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area (LAEA) (polar grids)
- Almost all of the **fine** resolution products will be made in the ISIN
- Exception: Sea-ice products are made in the in the LAEA projection with the grid centered at the north and south poles (EASI Grid implementation)
- Grid cell size varies by product and is either (approx.) 0.25 km, 0.5 km or 1 km – actual size depends on the projection
- Each grid is broken into non-overlapping tiles which cover approx. 10 x 10 deg. area
**Coarse** resolution global Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) products are made in a geographic projection with grid cell sizes of 0.25 or 0.5 deg.

- Sept. 26, 2000

## ISIN Grid

- 10 degree Tiles

- Grid Cell Sizes:    30 arcsec (0.93 km)    15 arcsec (0.46 km)   7.5 arcsec (0.23 km)

- Sept. 26, 2000

## History

- Selected 5 years ago for overall MODIS grid
- Compromise between land, ocean and atmosphere requirements
- First recommended for use for data analysis by Rossow & Garder (1984)
- Used in the past by: WMO, International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP), Oceans Pathfinder and SeaWiFS project, SSM/I and POLDER

- Sept. 26, 2000

## Example: 5 Degree Grid

- Sept. 26, 2000

## Normal vs. Integerized Grid

- Partial Cell

- Normal Grid

- Integerized Grid

- Full Cell

- Normal grid has partially filled cells along edges of grid

- Sept. 26, 2000

## Brick-like Shifts

- Brick-like shifts between rows

- Normal Grid

- Integerized Grid

- Before Projection

- After Projection

- Before Projection

- After Projection

- 250 m

- Sept. 26, 2000

## Advantages/Disadvantages

- Advantages:

- Almost equal area (not quite near poles)
- Can be aligned at any meridian by sliding rows
- Continuous across end of rows
- Disadvantages:
- Not supported by most tools
- Distorts shape of land areas
- Difficult to nest multiple resolutions
- Brick-like layout makes many geometric operations difficult: non-horizontal gradients, resampling, frequency filtering, etc.
- No heritage in Land community

- Sept. 26, 2000

## Tools

- Reprojection tool developed by USGS EDC and South Dakota School of Mines
- Converts MODIS L3 products to other grids (also converts format)
- Currently beta testing by MODIS Science Team
- Release expected on Feb. 28
- General Cartographic Transformation Package (GCTP)
- Updated by ECS to support ISIN and part of SDP toolkit
- USGS/EDC adding ISIN to official version
- Used by many vendors – precursor for support
- Other vendor support
- Seems to coming along, but not as quickly as we would like

## Observatory Architectures

- •Connects science to range of observatory scales and costs
- •Set’s context and goals for technology development.

## Range of Mission Opportunities and Scales for Planet Imaging

## Two Basic Architecturesfor High-Contrast Imaging

- • Internal Coronagraphy

- • External Occultation

*Control stellar halo via diffraction control or interference inside telesocope. *

- – Requires active wavefront sensing and control
- – Contrast and iwa scale with telescope diameter
- – Typically narrow band
- – Operations limited by exposure time and iwa

*Remove starlight via an external starshade and collect planet photons with conventional telescope. *

- – Eliminates need for WFSC
- – Contrast and iwa scale with occulter size and distance
- – Challenging engineering and control
- – Operations limited by slew time and revisits

## Internal Coronagraph Scales

- _Ground Telescopes with ExAO_
- Young giants, debris disks, hot Jupiters
- Limited by atmosphere and speed of AO
- _Suborbital Balloons and Sounding Rockets_
- Bright Jovians, disks, technology development
- Limited by size and stability
- _Small Missions (SMEX/MIDEX)_
- Planet forming regions, debris disks, exozodi
- Limited by cost (low resolution, reduced contrast)

## Internal Coronagraph Scales

- Jovian planets, Super-Earths, Exozodi
- Limited by iwa and integration time
- _Flagship Class (4 - 8 m)_
- Terrestrial planets
- Limited by cost and stability

## Slide 6

## External Occulters

- Single External Occulter
- Limited by size and distance of occulter
- Multiple Occulters
- Limited by cost and launch vehicles
- Hybrid Coronagraph/Occulter
- Limited by stability and iwa

*All are flagship scale targeted at terrestrial planets*

## Slide 8

## Mission Completeness Studies

- Need to continue refining analysis and create program science estimates for different scales.

## Completeness

- Observable Planets

- Completeness is the number of planets observed out of a distribution in all possible orbits in the habitable zone of a given target star.
- Optimized completeness finds the shortest integration time that still discovers all observable planets for a star of given luminosity.
- Total optimized program completeness simultaneously optimizes integration time (min mag of planet) and revisits over population of stars to maximize number of planets discovered at fixed probability of missed detection.

## Single/Multiple Visit Completeness

- iwa = 57 mas

- iwa = 60 mas

- As our project involves a wide spectrum of techniques, it is natural that both undergraduates (*David Adams*,* Brian Skinner*) and graduate (*Jiajia Dong*,* Sayak Mukherjee*) students form a core component of our research. In addition, three postdocs (*Andrew Angel, Izabella Benczik, and Yong Wu*) and a summer intern (*Max Lavrentovich, *undergraduate from Kenyon College) are supported in part by this grant. While junior researchers often discover new phenomena through computer simulations of simple models, full-scale and analytic studies are implemented by the more senior scientists.  The work outlined here was carried out by *David Adams*, who just received a BS in Physics and Computer Science.

## To Spend or Not To Spend?

- Spending our Budget Dollars Wisely to Improve Student Achievement

**Dr. Maureen Reusche,**
**Cherry Hill Public Schools, NJ**

## How do we, as PreK-12 educators use research?

- to better inform decisions regarding approaches to curriculum, instruction, professional development
- to support choices we make
- For our teachers, parents, and community
- Instill confidence in the choice made
- to learn about proven instructional strategies

## What is important to us when we examine the research 

- Addresses the cause and effect
- Applicable to our setting
- Cautious of quantitative analyses that permit inferences from samples to populations.

## What sources do we typically turn to and why? 

- ERIC
- ERS
- WWC
- AAAS - Project 2061
- National Mathematics Advisory Panel
- National Organizations, NCTM, NSTA, etc...

**Notes:**
Education Resources Information Center 
Educational Research Service -  For over 35 years, Educational Research Service (ERS) has been the nonprofit organization serving the research and information needs of the nation's preK-12 education leaders and the public. 
The American Association for the Advancement of Science's site on reforms of science, mathematics, and technology education.

## How are the Clearinghouse Resources Most Useful To Those in the Field?

- Provides for the ability to examine multiple sources focused upon one topic.
- Enables a weeding out of research that is self-reported
- n is relatively small, but in the publisher’s brochures it detail may not be included
- Provides ideas for implementation of strategies, approaches that have been proven successful (Practice Guides)

**Notes:**
Parent community – present more than one research study – particularly helpful in the area of Mathematics curriculum review

## Progress in Trackingin Heavy Ion Collisions

- Pavel Nevski
- Atlas HI meeting
- 16 may 2003

## Heavy Ion Collision in ATLASdetector (dy=0.5)

## Progress in Tracking Software

- Starting with 6.1.0 all modifications specific to Heavy Ion track reconstruction are propagated into the official xKalman code
- Limit increased on the:
- number of digits in a wafer up to 4096
- number of clusters per wafer up to 1024
- No limit on the number of reconstructed tracks
- Track reconstruction starts with vertex finding

## Pixel Occupancy

- Occupancy are evaluated using low tracking cuts (down to 100 KeV) and realistic signal simulation
- On average a track in the central region produces signals in about 7 channels per layer

## Pixel occupancy vs. rapidity

- Average occupancy close to one per cent
-  Strong local fluctuations
- Outermost layers are in a better condition

## Strip occupancy vs. rapidity

- Occupancy is significantly lower in the outermost layer
- Even in worse case still  below 20 per cent

## Track Reconstruction Efficiency

- Strict track selection
- At least 10 measurements on a track (maximum one missing hit for most of the tracks !)
- Maximum two measurements shared with other tracks
- Reasonable chi square    (4 per degree of freedom)

## Efficiency vs. Rapidity

- With common set of cuts
- More or less flat in  the barrel
- Higher in end caps due to more strip layers available
- Can be optimized further

## Momentum Resolution

- Resolution close to 3 per cent for pT in 1***GeV*** - 20 ***GeV*** range

## Fake Track Signature

- There is more handle to reduce the rate of fake tracks:
- Stronger vertex cut
- Use calorimeters for high pT tracks

## Progress in Tracking in Heavy Ion Collisions

-          Pavel Nevski
- Atlas HI group meeting
-            16 may 2002

## Conclusions

- Tracking looks promising in Heavy Ion collistions
- It will be interesting to combine tracking with calorimeter reconstruction as the next step

## Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) Telescope Assembly Controlled Response Utilizing NASTRAN and MATLAB/Simulink for Pointing AnalysisBy:Karim R. Iman Mike Honaker (Material)Orbital Sciences Corporation Technical Services Division, Greenbelt, Marylandiman.karim@orbital.comhonaker.mike@orbital.com 

## Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) Telescope

- The heart of any observatory is its telescope, and the heart of any large research telescope is its main light-collecting mirror. With an effective diameter of 2.5 meters (98.75 inches), the SOFIA telescope mirror will be the largest ever to leave the surface of the earth. It will collect and concentrate 162,000 times more light than can the human eye, and nine times more light than its predecessor, the .91 meter (36 inches) telescope carried aboard the Kuiper Airborne Observatory.

## Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) Telescope

- Designing a large telescope to operate from an aircraft presents many significant engineering challenges. It must be much lighter than an equivalent ground-based telescope, so the aircraft can stay aloft for as long as possible. At the same time, it must be extremely strong and rigid, so it won't bend under the constant buffeting of the 550-mile-per-hour aircraft slipstream blowing into the open cavity. Finally, its support and control system must accurately point the telescope and keep it precisely on target even as the aircraft is flying through sometimes-turbulent air.
- The world’s largest airborne telescope.
- The modifications to the plane include a 10’X10’ opening in the side of the aft portion of the fuselage.
- A structural finite element model of the telescope assembly was created to evaluate structural integrity, stability, control and structural loads of the telescope assembly and the induced loads to the aircraft.

## Key Telescope Characteristics

## SOFIA Telescope Assembly Controlled Response Utilizing NASTRAN and MATLAB/Simulink for Pointing Analysis

- SOFIA Telescope Assembly (TA) NASTRAN model is used to create modal state space model that is fed into MATLAB/Simulink controls model.
- MATLAB/Simulink model is used to apply external forces, implement control laws and perform overall controlled TA pointing calculations.
- MATLAB/Simulink calculated displacements are fed back into NASTRAN to generate full animations of the TA structures controlled response.

**MEDICINALLY:**
- The Cherokees brewed the bark into a tea and then would drink it as a general tonic, expectorant and to aid in breast complaints, spitting blood or prolapse.  It was also massaged onto muscle cramps.  To relieve sinus congestion the bark would be burned and the smoke inhaled.
- Other tribes drank the tea to treat constipation, liver ills and malaria.
- Some thought powdered bark sprinkled onto the scalp would stop dandruff.

## Getting the Lead Out

- Chemist Hilary Godwin:
*Investigating the Chemistry of Lead Poisoning*

## Hilary Godwin Is an Atomic Sleuth

*Chemist Godwin investigates how lead disrupts protein function.*

- How is lead toxic to kids?

*Question:*

- Lead
- Changes a protein’s shape
- Interferes with gene function
- Displaces calcium and zinc inside proteins

## Answer: Lead can damage the brain       and nervous system

- Lead poisoning is linked to
- •  Developmental delays
- •  Learning disabilities
- •  Behavior problems

- High levels of lead in routine blood tests: often the first symptom of lead poisoning in children

- 2.2 percent of American children age 1-5 years have blood levels of lead measuring at least 10 micrograms per deciliter.
- —Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

## Where Do We Find Lead?

- Lead contaminants can be found in
- Older homes containing lead paint
- Old pipes and pipe sealants
- Lead dust residues in soil from gasoline formulated with lead up until the mid-1980s

*Lead Is a Metal Thief*

- Lead (Pb) can attach tightly to proteins, knocking out key metals such as zinc (Zn) or calcium (Ca), which are needed for good health.

## Lead can disrupt gene function:
Misshapen proteins cannot interact properly with genes (DNA)
Lead can displace metals in proteins that switch genes on or off

- Misshapen proteins cannot interact properly with genes (DNA)
- Lead can displace metals in proteins that switch genes on or off

*Lead’s Molecular Damage*

## Godwin’s Metal Test

- Godwin uses analytic chemistry to determine how tightly lead binds with proteins.

## Nothing Good About Lead 

- Severe lead poisoning can damage the nervous system
- Lead toxicity can cause anemia
- Lead poisoning is associated with male infertility

## “Good Metals” Help Body Chemistry

- Metals work with the body’s enzymes to speed up healthful chemical reactions
- “Good metals” *(e.g.,* calcium, zinc, cobalt) are important dietary staples

## Healthy Metals

| Metal | Sources | Promotes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [Ca] Calcium | Dairy, broccoli, figs, sardines | Muscle and nerve signaling, bone growth |
| [Fe]  Iron | Meat, beans, spinach | Red blood cell function |
| [Cu] Copper | Lobster, crab, beans, nuts | “Mop up” of free radicals |
| [Mg] Magnesium | Dark green leafy vegetables | Strong bones and teeth, muscle contraction |
| [Zn]  Zinc | Oysters, chick peas, whole grains | Hormone regulation, gene activity |
| [Co] Cobalt | Leafy green vegetables, meat and dairy products | Red blood cell formation |
| [Mn] Manganese | Cereals, whole grains | Break down of fats, carbohydrates, proteins |

## Research Applications

- Could other metals be used to displace lead from body molecules?

## RHIC II Science Workshop

- Welcome & Introduction:
- BNL Perspective on the Science Workshops
- S. Aronson			Physics Department

## Overview

- Why are we starting a series of meetings on the case for RHIC II science?
- What do we hope to accomplish with these meetings?
- What is our time scale?
- Agenda for this first meeting

## Purpose of the RHIC II Science Workshops

- BNL and the RHIC Community need to focus on the compelling questions that define the next phase of RHIC physics
- If, as we expect, significant upgrades to the capabilities of the RHIC complex are needed to address many of these questions, the case for them has to be made in the next **NP Long Range Plan**
- These workshops are meant to provide the means for the community to come together and come to grips with these questions

## Goals of the RHIC II Science Workshops

- RHIC II Science Drivers
- What are the compelling questions as seen from this vantage point?
- A roadmap beyond the discovery phase is not yet well articulated to the NP community
- We need to address this as part of making the RHIC II case for the next LRP
- The goals of these workshops are to
- Identify the key science drivers
- Study quantitatively the key measurements that address these questions and the facility capabilities that are needed for these measurements

## Schedule for the Workshops

- LRP Schedule
- Resolution meeting - Summer 2006
- Town Meetings - early CY 2006
-  RHIC II case assembled by late CY 2005
-  Science Drivers articulated by Spring 2005
- followed over the subsequent 6 months by
- simulations
- detector & machine requirements
- white paper

## This Meeting

- Organize
- Topics
- Working groups
- Schedule
- Agenda
- Theoretical perspectives and vision
- Experimental perspective and plans
- LHC-HI plans as context

**Notes:**
Agenda notes:
Spin is included – a source of science drivers for the next phase
Detector and machine upgrades, performance are NOT included per se.  Return to these topics when we have converged on the science drivers.

## Observations & Summary

- We need to be flexible, to allow new ideas to emerge during this process
- We need to be mindful of the many demands of a vital and active ongoing program on the time people have to spend on this exercise
- We also need to maintain awareness of the budget constraints on the whole field:     success in this endeavor is a prerequisite for continuation of this program beyond the next few years!

**Notes:**
RHIC II and even the continued operation of RHIC should not be viewed as an entitlement

## Ocean Time Series Data Products from Systematic Satellite Missions: Moderate Resolution - AVHRR/SeaWiFS/MODIS/VIIRS

- Co-chairs Stéphane Maritorena and Whit Anderson

## Consensus: Ocean color is not just chlorophyll.
IOPs, Kd, FLH, NPP, new products (Phytoplankton Functional Groups, Particle Size Distribution) and SST are essential to understand the ocean over time

Carbon cycle and ecosystems modelers wish list:
Phytoplankton functional groups
Particle size distribution
Carbon Biomass
Nutrients
Export of Carbon out of Mixed Layer

- IOPs, Kd, FLH, NPP, new products (Phytoplankton Functional Groups, Particle Size Distribution) and SST are essential to understand the ocean over time
- Carbon cycle and ecosystems modelers wish list:
- Phytoplankton functional groups
- Particle size distribution
- Carbon Biomass
- Nutrients
- Export of Carbon out of Mixed Layer

**Ocean Time Series Data Products**

## Issues/Concerns/Challenges

- Characterization, Calibration and validation activities must be sustained for SST and OC throughout missions
- When/how is a product validated ? High-res. model approach to assess validation and calibration requirements.
- VIIRS: quality of OC data ? No reprocessing strategy
- Unease over the uncertainty of the future of ocean color products other than CHL.
- Data access to non-standard products

## Recommendations

- Continue high-quality ocean color (and not just CHL !) and SST data.
- SST, spectral radiance (or TOA radiance) and possibly CHL are candidates for CDRs
- Most other OC products likely to become ESDRs.

**Notes:**
Good science (not limited to carbon cycle studies) is already coming out of a “young” dataset.
Complimentary to in situ products (ARGO floats, gliders, etc...)
