Cyber Threats in Healthcare: The Ransomware Epidemic
In this presentation, we will delve into the growing ransomware crisis in healthcare, examining how these cyber threats disrupt hospital operations, jeopardize patient safety, and impose significant financial burdens. From understanding how ransomware infiltrates hospital systems to exploring real-world case studies, we will uncover the devastating impact of these attacks. Our discussion will also focus on mitigation strategies, cybersecurity best practices, and policy recommendations to safeguard healthcare institutions from future threats
The Human Catalyst and Extractivist Fiction: A Close Reading of Siddhartha Sarma’s Year of the Weeds and Pundalik N Naik’s The Upheaval
Literary narratives have been abetting the various global faces of climate crisis, ever since the disciplines of humanities and social sciences have become vocal about the Anthropocene. The discussions have been mostly centered around the discourses of capitalism, imperialism, rights and subalterity. By reading some of these foundational grips on ecological crisis, the present essay analyses literary narratives on mining and extraction in India from the standpoint of a human catalyst; which is defined as an entity that can cause a chain reaction, that may or may not result in the annihilation of the initial catalyst. The essay will begin with an interrogation of ‘what it means to be human’ and will further probe into the bio-genetic structures that are embedded in the discursive transactions on mining and extraction related narratives in India

Anionic Azo Dyes: Wastewater Pollutants as Functionalizing Agents for Porous Polycarbonate Membranes Aiding in Water Decolorization
Efficient water decolorization techniques are vital for ensuring fresh water for future generations. Azo dyes are used heavily in the textile industry and are a challenge to remove from industrial wastewater. This research expands on recent innovative work where anionic azo dyes themselves were used to functionalize track-etched porous polycarbonate filtration membranes with decolorized water obtained as a byproduct. The objective of this research is to determine whether the observed dye rejection is dependent on the magnitude of the intrinsic charge of the dye molecule or on its structure, using two selectively chosen anionic azo dye series during functionalization. The first group is a negative two intrinsic charge series with six dyes, each differing in structure, and the second group is a five-dye series that increases from −1 to −6 in intrinsic charge. Rejection measurements as a function of both time and concentration during functionalization are made using ultraviolet-visible light spectroscopy. For 100 µM aqueous dyes, comparing pre- and post-functionalization, a systematically increasing trend in the ability to functionalize porous polycarbonate based on the number of double 6-carbon ring structures in the dyes is illustrated and found to be independent of intrinsic charge
Importance of library metrics and effective methods of communication with provosts
Provosts and librarians share a common goal of needing to measure library activity in such a way that appropriately conveys how it contributes to the institution’s campus initiatives and strategic planning. The goal of this research was to determine how best to analyze these activities through agreed upon metrics and preferred communication styles. By combining the two aspects of analytical metrics and communication methods, this research would provide a common ground that both provosts and librarians could build upon for the future growth and development of the library
