More than LGBT: A Student Scientist’s Journey at Centenary College

October 16th 2014 Posted at Uncategorized
Comments Off on More than LGBT: A Student Scientist’s Journey at Centenary College


Shreveport, LA (PRWEB) October 09, 2014

Centenary College of Louisiana’s Eli Capello ’15 is an artist, churchgoer, meditator, friend, brother, son, and most recently the voice of transgender scientists in a Nature science journal article, “Diversity: Pride in Science.”

 

Released in September, the article explores the current climate for scientists in the LGBT community. While lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals are experiencing less discrimination in general, there is still work to be done in the science field for all minorities. From stories of LGBT scientists finding solace in labs and research, to individuals expressing the fundamental loneliness that comes with such an emotionally charged label, a variety of voices explored what effect coming out in the workplace has done to their careers. Capello, a neuroscience major from Prairieville, Louisiana spoke on transitioning at age 18 and the inherent social complications of sex reassignment.

 

“There’s a reason you’re supposed to go through puberty before you get to college,” said Capello in the article.

 

Capello has had a dynamic experience as a Centenary student while undergoing his transition. While a first-year, a few students refused to use male pronouns when referring to him. Others attributed his academic success to getting special treatment because professors felt pity for him as the “trans-guy.”

 

“Things are a lot different now,” said Capello. “When I came in, it’s safe to say no one knew anything about being transgender. But now policies and attitudes have changed. The Admission office didn’t have anything to help trans students identify their gender, but now they do because of groups like Safe Zone and the Diversity Committee.”

 

While studying neuroscience at Centenary, Capello has discovered the science discipline is a meaningful place for him to explore his personal life and career goals. When asked whether science has helped him understand his transgender identity, Capello says it’s the other way around.

 

“I’d say not being in right body helped me understand science,” said Capello. “It helped me understand how to question things. When someone transitions, they work with a therapist to describe why they feel male or female without using body parts. You have to become an articulate person to describe something as complex as gender.”

 

Capello is as passionate about gender equality as he is about LGBT issues. Much of his impressive science career has been devoted to eradicating sexism in research. In his latest project he produced a manuscript with former Centenary professor Greg Butcher that identifies a gender bias in Parkinson’s Disease research. Despite Parkinson’s being a disease that affects a very sex-specific part of the brain, their findings showed that female rats were used far less than male rats in studies. Only 20 percent of male scientists used both male and female rats in their research while 50 percent of female scientists utilized both genders.

 

“Because female rats have a pretty regular cycle, some scientists think it’s a waste of time to use them for research and that it probably ‘won’t make a difference,'” said Capello. “But nowhere else in science would we just assume something doesn’t matter. We would test it.”

 

In another project, Capello was urged to collect data on both male and female oxycodone addicts but found it challenging to find statistics for women. Citing a recent incident involving the FDA’s failing to revise Ambien dosages for women who are accidentally overdosing on the sleep-aid, Capello sees taking the physiological differences of men and women into account as a big issue in scientific research. The lack of female testing is not surprising to Capello considering the gender disparity in science disciplines.

 

“Girls come into labs and do not feel as confident because they have been told science is for geeky white guys,” said Capello. “Then they make mistakes that further confirm what the head honcho of the lab already thought about them. I’ve been in labs where people who identify as female have been treated very differently.”

 

Part of the reason Capello found the Nature article important was because it illustrated the need for diversity in the workplace both for personal and scientific growth. Increasing the number of scientists from underrepresented populations such as members of the LGBT community will advance gender equality in research and subsequently improve healthcare for everyone, especially the ones having  prostate cancer.

 

After graduation, Capello hopes to attend a graduate program and pursue a Ph.D. in neuroscience. He once thought he would need to hide his transgender identity to succeed in the field, but has recently realized there is no reason to veil his story.

 

“I have faith in myself that being in the south and out has given me a backbone that I probably wouldn’t have developed if I had gone to school in a more progressive area,” said Capello. “I don’t feel like it’s going to hold me back. I’ve worked really hard to be where I am today.”

 

Capello is a member of Nu Rho Psi, the National Honor Society in Neuroscience, and a recipient of the Nancy M. Christian and Point Foundation Scholarships. He is the Centenary Diversity Committee intern, volunteers at the Highland Center and Martin Luther King Health Center, and is the director of the Shreveport Chapter of Louisiana TransAdvocates. Capello is a student worker at the LSU Health Sciences Center-Shreveport in the Pharmacology, Toxicology, & Neuroscience Department. Following his diabetic retinopathy research project with classmate Chantel Lee, Capello will teach graduate level students at LSU Health Sciences Center-Shreveport how to operate the machinery he crafted for continued research.

Survey Shows Cyber Emergency Response Plans Need to be Regularly Flexed to Stay Effective

October 3rd 2014 Posted at Uncategorized
Comments Off on Survey Shows Cyber Emergency Response Plans Need to be Regularly Flexed to Stay Effective


New York, NY (PRWEB) September 27, 2014

The Ponemon Institute released the 2014 results from their second annual survey on data breach preparedness sponsored by Experian on Wednesday, and some of the trends were certainly promising. There was a 12% uptick in how many companies have data breach response plans, previously 61%, a 5% increase in how many had emergency response teams in place, a 10% rise in the number of companies that have privacy and data protection awareness programs, from 44 to 54%, and a surge in companies that are making data breach or cyber insurance policies a part of their emergency preparedness plans, increasing more than twofold, from 10% to 26%, compared to last year’s survey.

Some other numbers, however, were not good news. 43% of those surveyed said they had experienced a data breach, up 10 percentage points from the 2013 survey, and of those, 60% said they suffered more than one breach in the last two years, compared to 52% in 2013, which according to Joe Caruso, founder and CEO/CTO of Global Digital Forensics (GDF), a premier provider of cyber security solutions, are probably much higher numbers in reality.

“Data breaches are notoriously under reported by businesses of all sizes. Integrity and public trust are valuable business assets, and if they take a hit, they know their bottom line will suffer. So many businesses make even the discussion of being breached or hacked taboo turf when it comes to anyone on the outside. If it wasn’t for the regulatory compliance rules many industries face, and the threat of severe sanctions and/or fines for failure to comply, total radio silence would be par for the course. And even with all the regulations, it’s quite common for business victims to do everything in their power to keep as many details under wraps as possible. But that’s just trouble waiting to happen, because once a breach is exposed that a business tried to sweep under the rug and out of sight, customers, associates, investors and vendors all feel betrayed, and then their bottom line will suffer exponentially, often irreparably.”

Business survival often depends on emergency response.

While the survey showed more business than ever have response plans in place, it also shows that only 30% of those businesses feel their plans will be at least effective, with the same amount feeling their plans are ineffective, 17% unsure, and the rest somewhere in the middle.

“Those are troubling numbers,” says Caruso, “and according to the survey, a lot of that skepticism comes from the “set it and forget it” mentality many business employ when it comes to setting up and maintaining their plans. Only 22% could make the claim that they review and update their response plans at least once a year, which should be the bare minimum. All the rest either have no defined timeframe for reviews and updates, or have not done it even once since their plans were first devised and implemented. That’s a recipe for disaster. Threats are evolving every day, technologies changes all the time, new business needs and practices continuously emerge, and if your emergency response plan is going to be effective, all of that has to be accounted for. That’s what we help clients do, assess their vulnerabilities and test for weak links in their cyber security chain with proven state-of-the-art penetration testing, from both an insider and outsider perspective. And if a business has an emergency response plan in place, we will flex it to see how it stands up to real-world threats and isolate the shortcomings, and if they don’t, we’ll help them devise one from scratch. The biggest key is regularity, because what would have worked last year will probably not stand up to today’s threat landscape, and what works today will undoubtedly be challenged by the threat vectors that evolve over the next six months or year. Like it or not, that’s today’s cyber reality, so either businesses have to be prepared to step up and play the game right, or pack up, take their ball and go home, because they will not win in the long run if they’re not ready to take the field on any given day.”

MentorMate, Inc. Launches Health Care Practice

September 21st 2014 Posted at Uncategorized
Comments Off on MentorMate, Inc. Launches Health Care Practice

Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) September 15, 2014

MentorMate (http://www.MentorMate.com) announced today that it is launching a fully focused vertical in health care with a focus on mobile strategy for Digital Health, Big Data, Pharma and Medical Devices. Located in the heart of Medical Alley with brands like Medtronic, Mayo Clinic and United Health Group, MentorMate is responding to the need for a center point dedicated to health care innovation and strategy with the launch of a digital health lab/incubator, an Apple HealthKit lab, as well as expansion of MentorMate’s brand development to include innovation and strategy delivery tools for clients. As the world’s first Apple HealthKit Lab, MentorMate will focus on integration and development of mobile strategy using mobile devices as well as the new Apple Watch, while working in tandem with Android-focused development teams at Google and Samsung.

“Health care has been a major segment for MentorMate for many years, with year-over-year increases to more than 30% of the business with clients like Medtronic, Medica, Amcon (now Spok), MyMeds and numerous other health IT-related companies,” says Björn Stansvik, CEO and Founder of MentorMate. “The opportunity of mobile in its broadest sense—including mobile devices, wearables, driveables, flyables, robots, intelligent machines, implantables and nano-ingestables—combined with the human mind and body constitutes an opportunity to elevate humanity through technology by enabling prevention over intervention, identification and eradication of waste, and a more participatory role for people in their own health care.”
