Epidemiology
Elective
For Senior Medical and Veterinary Students
The Epidemiology Program
Office (EPO) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) offers
an elective in epidemiology for senior medical and veterinary students.
The purpose of the elective is to provide an introduction to preventive
medicine, public health and the principles of applied epidemiology.
Elective students are offered the opportunity to actively assist in epidemiologic
investigations of infectious diseases and areas such as cancer, congenital
malformations, environmental and occupational diseases, injuries (intentional
and unintentional), chronic diseases, and reproductive health and population
dynamics. Students are also exposed to the day-to-day operation of CDC's
nationwide surveillance system.
Diverse projects
are offered for students to work on during their elective. Some participants
have become co-authors on publications of major health importance. Other
students receive experience in applied epidemiology through participation
in the investigation of public health problems throughout the United States
and the analysis of public health data.
Most elective
assignments are based at CDC headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. However,
assignments to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
in Cincinnati, Ohio, Morgantown, West Virginia, or Anchorage, Alaska,
can be arranged.
Occasionally,
students are assigned to a state or local health department; the Indian
Health Service in Albuquerque, New Mexico; the Division of Vector-borne
Infectious Diseases in Fort Collins, Colorado; or the Arctic Investigation
Lab in Anchorage, Alaska.
Elective students
are often supervised by a select group of "medical detectives" known as
Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) Officers. Many of these officers were
former participants of the Epidemiology Elective Program.

Art on Campus
UNE Art Gallery Presents Shades of Picasso and Matisse
A Richard Derby Tucker Retrospective
will be on view Sept. 29 through Nov. 21, 2004 at the UNE Art Gallery,
WCC. An opening reception was held on Wednesday, Sept. 29 from 5:00-7:00
p.m. For more details about this show and related programs, call (207)
797-7688, extension 4499, or visit www.une.edu/artgallery
Exhibitions and events are free and open to the public. Richard Derby
Tucker is an under-discovered Maine treasure and this upcoming Retrospective
will introduce his powerful work to a whole new generation of art lovers.
Tucker studied at the Art Students League in New York City, was greatly
influenced by artists of the 20th century - Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse
and Georges Rouault. Working in oil, watercolor and acrylic, Tucker gives
us a world of strong lines and shading, bold color and fanciful expression.
Distinctions between abstraction and representation blur as his work encompasses
both, but includes more than simply these two styles of art. His subjects
range from family scenes to individual women (including many renditions
of his 2nd wife, Katharine), from riotous flowers to animal characters
and magical landscapes. Always his pallet is rich, the vision joyful,
and the result full of sensual spirit. Indeed, he believed all art is
a fundamental expression of soul. Born in New York City in 1903, his first
attendance at the Art Students League occurred when he was only 16. After
graduating from Harvard, he became an investment banker, and later during
World War II he commanded three escort vessels in the Atlantic. Then,
after three additional years at the Art Students League, he became a full-time
professional artist. Although he spent winters in southern France and
Portugal, he lived primarily in Camden, Maine from 1950 until his death
in 1980. Working diligently every day in a studio he built on his property,
he had more than a dozen one-man shows during his lifetime. Now we have
the opportunity to celebrate this important artist who has captured the
essence of 20th century expressionism, European modernism, and the flavor
of Maine as well.
Art on the University
Campus
Paintings by Connecticut artist Patricia Carrigan that
explore issues of direction, tracks and traces of where she has been or
may go, is on display through November 3, 2004, in the Stella Maris Gallery,
UC.
“For me, painting is about telling stories and recalling
memories,” said Carrigan. “The predominant focus of my studio work is
on heritage and how memories we pass on from generation to generation
shift and evolve in significance depending upon what we choose to remember
and what we choose to forget.
This current body of work is centered on issues of direction,
tracks and traces of where I have been or may go, of losing one way and
finding another route back,” she continued. Celtic cairns, map icons,
star charts, trail blazes, numbers, words, time charts, family stories,
and animal symbols suggest markers that are both recognizable and at the
same time vary in their meaning by placement or juxtaposition to each
other.
Patricia Carrigan is a painter and mixed media artist
from East Granby, Connecticut. She has exhibited her paintings, drawings,
and mixed media pieces since 1990 in several solo, group, national, and
juried exhibitions; both nationally and throughout the Northeast.
Carrigan received her master of fine arts degree from
The University of Connecticut at Storrs in 1994 in painting and drawing
and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hartwick College in Oneonta, New York
in 1982 in painting and art Education. Themes explored throughout her
work include memory and personal storytelling, Irish family histories,
and peoples obsession with physical appearance and body image.
Patricia has been awarded numerous grants including a
Fellowship at Vermont Studio Center in Johnson, Vermont and a Studio Grant
from The Greater Hartford Arts Council. She is a 2002 and a 2004 Recipient
of An Individual Artist Fellowship Grant from The Connecticut Commission
on the Arts and A Ballinglen Artist Residency Fellowship in Ballycastle,
County Mayo, Ireland in 2005.
The Stella Maris Gallery is open 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday
through Friday. For more information, contact the curator, Gina Adams,
at 363-9894.

American Red Cross Blood
Drive Nov. 2nd and 3rd
Sponsored by the UNECOM Class of
2008, the Student Chapter of the American College of Osteopathic Family
Physicians and the Undergraduate Student Government Association.
Consider Yourself Asked! The American Red Cross desperately needs your blood donation. Please join the UNE community as we add critical units to the dangerously low blood supply in the state of Maine.
When:
November 2, 1PM to 7PM
November 3, 9AM to 2PM
Where:
Campus Center, Multipurpose
Room
How:
Why:
|
You
will get free juice and cookies. |
|
|
You
will weigh less — one pint less when you leave than when you came
in. |
|
|
It's
easy and convenient — it only takes about an hour and you can
make the donation at a donor center or at one of the many Red
Cross mobile blood drives. |
|
|
It's
something you can spare — most people have blood to spare... yet,
there is still not enough to go around. |
|
|
Nobody
can ask you to do any heavy lifting as long as you have the bandage
on. You can wear it for as long as you like. It's your badge of
honor. |
|
|
You
will walk a little taller afterwards — you will feel good about
yourself. |
|
|
You
will be helping to ensure that blood is there when you or someone
close to you may need it. Most people don't think they'll ever
need blood, but many do. |
|
|
It's
something you can do on equal footing with the rich and famous
— blood is something money can't buy. Only something one person
can give to another. |
|
|
You
will be someone's hero — you may give a newborn, a child, a mother
or a father, a brother, or a sister another chance at life. In
fact, you may help save up to three lives with just one donation. |
|
|
It's
the right thing to do. |

UNE
featured in Down East Magazine, November 2004
UNE
is featured in the November issue of Down East magazine. The six-page
story and photos highlight the young university’s remarkable growth and
success. The “teaser” copy on the magazine’s cover reads: “Biddeford’s
Surprising University by the Sea.”
Written
by Down East contributing editor Edgar Allen Beem, the article describes
“a fledgling school whose health care and marine biology programs have
already won it recognition outside the state.” UNE was created in 1978
with the merger of St. Francis College and the New England College of
Osteopathic Medicine.
At the center of the article are UNE’s President Sandra Featherman, who
took over the UNE presidency just as the Westbrook College merger was
developing in 1996, and recent graduate Melissa “Missy” Stultz, a top-flight
scholar-athlete who Beem writes “might well be regarded as Miss UNE.”
Stultz,
a 2004 UNE marine biology graduate who is now pursuing a graduate degree
in international policy at Columbia University, is quoted as saying, “I’ve
never found a more ravishing college environment.”
