Physician Group Seeking CS Intern

I am a physician at Palmetto Health Richland and am seeking your assistance in finding an intern. This would be an unpaid internship with our hospitalist group to create a program to help divide and organize our patient lists. All we have to offer is an excellent recommendation upon completion. Our hospitalist group manages and average of 130-160 patients on a daily basis. We developed and have been using a mathematical algorithm to divide the patient census to create an equitable workload for each provider. Currently our daily list is counted and divided by a nurse practitioner, using a spreadsheet. This is a complicated and time consuming process and we would like to have a program that would help simplify the process. We are also at a disadvantage when the nurse pracitioners are not working and it is difficult to track patients on a daily basis when they are discharged/change level of care. Unfortunately, there is no way to make our medical records/charting communicate with any other program to do this, so it must be done by humans. Pre-medicine, I have a computer information science background and have a concept. However, I am very far removed from that background at this point. Ideally, I would like to see a form with an interface that allows each provider to log in and say how many patients are on their census and who they are seeing on other floors. And then have that all tabulated into one spreadsheet that can be printed. I have several more specifics, but just want to give you a general idea. I also need it to be fairly administrator-friendly, in that I can easily modify the algorithm. If you know of a student who might be interested in this project, please refer them to me. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance. Sincerely, Amanda Goins, DO amandagoinsdo@sc.rr.com Richland Hospital Internal Medicine Palmetto Health Richland Columbia, SC

Texas A&M University: Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates

Texas A&M University NSF- Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program Computing for Disasters APPLICATION DEADLINE: March 1, 2015 PROGRAM DATES: June 2, 2015 – August 7, 2015 PROGRAM INCLUDES:
  • Hands-on research with responders
  • Seminars and brown bags on research & career development
  • Tours of TAMU laboratories & NASA Johnson
  • Weekly social activities with other students, mentors, & faculty
AWARD:
  • $5,000 for your research work for the summer
  • $1000 meal allowance
  • $1000 housing allowance (if not living in luxury housing provided)
  • Actual travel expenses to and from Texas A&M University
Summer 2015 will mark the third year that the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Texas A&M University is offering a summer REU Program, Computing for Disasters. The program spans 10 weeks and involves undergraduate students from Texas A&M as well as students from other colleges and universities from across the United States. It is hoped that the students participating in the CSE REU Computing for Disasters program will make significant contributions to ongoing faculty research and, more importantly, will gain an appreciation for and an interest in graduate school and a future research career. Disasters pose a comprehensive need for computing, where data must be collected, transmitted, transformed, and displayed to stakeholders in real-time, leading to the acronym of critical real-time computing and information systems or CRICIS. Disasters are a natural focus because it brings together research in "physical science and engineering (e.g., sensors, unmanned systems, models, etc.), social sources of data (e.g., social networking, citizen science, etc.), transfer and storage of data (e.g., networks, cloud computing, context-aware networks, data warehousing, security, privacy, etc.), transformation of data into useful information (e.g., computer vision, human computation, etc.), real-time formal and informal decision making support (e.g., artificial intelligence, optimization, visualization, interfaces, cognitive science, CSCW, policy, etc.)." However, disasters are more than a "big tent" offering a common theme, they encourage expansion of existing research topics in new directions because of the extreme temporal, geographical, stakeholder, and data scales. In addition disaster management requires a new style of research which emphasizes a holistic, multi-disciplinary approach similar to the Smart Health and Well being programs at NSF. Students are offered a specific project based on their interests and course work as part of the acceptance process. They work with responders at Disaster City in Week 1 and learn about human-centered design in computing, then from week 2-9 work with their faculty and graduate mentors on individual research projects. They also meet weekly as a cohort for brown bag seminars on how to conduct research, career paths, and work/life balance, and in week 10 present at two poster sessions. Students also tour NASA Johnson Space Center and interact with industry and have lots of social experiences. ELIGIBILITY:
  • Undergraduate students majoring in computer science, computer engineering, or related field
  • High school graduates who have been accepted at an undergraduate institution but who have not yet started their undergraduate study are also eligible to participate
  • U.S. Citizen or permanent resident
  • GPA of 3.0 or higher
  • Plan to graduate no earlier than December 2015
  • May not enroll in additional academic courses during the summer session
  • Minorities and women strongly encouraged to apply

Algorithm Intern for Startup

I am a senior Entrepreneurship undergrad working on an app for volunteer management. I have a part of the app that requires taking metrics gathered from the app and computing a score that can describe each volunteer. I am in no way capable of writing such an algorithm and figured it'd be a good opportunity to get one of the students in the Computer Science Department some experience. At this time the position is unpaid, however if the job is done quickly and satisfactory we will need a position to handle the future iterations of the algorithm. Once funding is in place, the position will become a paid internship and more than likely translate into employment. If you can think of a candidate that would be interested, or would post this to your jobs board that would be fantastic. Best Regards, Ben Delgado (757)694-1129 Ben.lan.del@gmail.com

DOE Office of Science Graduate Student Research Program Accepting Applications

The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Science is pleased to announce that the Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) program is now accepting applications for the 2015 solicitation. Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) will be one of the partnering/host institutions for the program. Applications are due 5:00pm ET on Tuesday April 14, 2015. The SCGSR program supports supplemental awards to outstanding U.S. graduate students to conduct part of their graduate thesis research at a DOE national laboratory in collaboration with a DOE laboratory scientist for a period of 3 to 12 consecutive months—with the goal of preparing graduate students for scientific and technical careers critically important to the DOE Office of Science mission. The SCGSR program is open to current Ph.D. students in qualified graduate programs at accredited U.S. academic institutions, who are conducting their graduate thesis research in targeted areas of importance to the DOE Office of Science. The research opportunity is expected to advance the graduate students’ overall doctoral thesis while providing access to the expertise, resources, and capabilities available at the DOE laboratories. The supplemental award provides for additional, incremental costs for living and travel expenses directly associated with conducting the SCGSR research project at the DOE host laboratory during the award period. The Office of Science expects to make approximately 100 awards in 2015, for project periods beginning anytime between October 2015 and September 2016. The 2014 program solicitation resulted in awards to 65 graduate students from 50 different universities to conduct thesis research at 15 DOE national laboratories. Detailed information about the program, including eligibility requirements and access to the online application system, can be found at: http://science.energy.gov/wdts/scgsr/. The SCGSR program is sponsored and managed by the DOE Office of Science’s Office of Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS), in collaboration with the six Office of Science research programs offices and the DOE national laboratories, and the Oak Ridge Institute of Science and Education (ORISE). For any questions, please contact the SCGSR Program Manager, Dr. Ping Ge, at sc.scgsr@science.doe.gov.
