    Celebrating the Legacy of the Institute of Psychiatric Research (IPR), and Moving Brain Research Forward
    (2022-06-22) Lahiri, Debomoy K.; Nurnberger, John I.
    The Institute for Psychiatric Research (IPR) at Indiana University (IU) School of Medicine was a free-standing four-story building on the main IUPUI campus (791 Union Drive) just east of Eskenazi Hospital's present location. It was built in 1955-56 by the State of Indiana to house the laboratories of neuroscience investigators operating under the leadership of the IU Department of Psychiatry. For nearly six decades IPR was the home of innovative research (primarily NIH-funded) in neurochemistry, electrophysiology, genetics, neuroanatomy, animal behavior, and molecular biology. For many years it was also the home of neuroscience education on the IUPUI campus. In 2014 the IPR building was demolished as part of the construction of Eskenazi hospital to replace the venerable Wishard hospital campus. IPR faculty relocated to the IU Neuroscience Building at 320 West 15th Street, where they now continue their work along with researchers at Stark Neurosciences Research Institute and other departments. Former IPR faculty Debomoy Lahiri and John Nurnberger have assembled a history of IPR along with illustrations of the building and the faculty and staff who worked there and contributed significantly to psychiatric research.

    Deconstructing Professionalism​
    (2023-04-28) Schantz, Eli; Mansoori, Afsheen; Hicks, Clayton; Harris, Jonathan
    The notion of professionalism informs policy-making at all levels of medical practice, from national organizations and licensing boards to hospital disciplinary committees. The creation of policies to promote professionalism, however, is made all the more complex in the context of undergraduate medical education, where the notion of professionalism not only acts to govern behavior, but also to shape the professional identity of physicians-in-training. Given the importance of such policies, our goal here is to characterize, both descriptively and prescriptively, how the notion of professionalism manifests in the policies governing undergraduate medical education. First, we present a review of the professionalism policies currently in effect at Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM). Following this review, we turn to argue that these policies suffer from two significant shortcomings: (i) the frequent use of circular definitions, giving rise to considerable ambiguity, and (ii) pronounced conflict between policies which seek justice and policies which maintain institutional power structures. We conclude that these conceptual inadequacies represent significant barriers which can both hinder the professional growth of medical students and hamper their ability to navigate their professional obligations, and we offer a number of recommendations for refining and reforming these policies.

    Finding the Golden Mean: An Efficient Model for Improving Discovery and Access for Legacy Theses and Dissertations in a Medical Library’s Institutional Repository
    (2023-11-16) Pieczko, Brandon T.
    Developing an efficient and cost-effective method for providing access to legacy print theses and dissertations is a challenge faced by many libraries that serve medical schools and other academic health science programs. The significant staff time and financial cost associated with systematically digitizing and providing complete online access to print theses and dissertations can be problematic given the potentially limited return on that investment as reflected in patron use statistics and other metrics. This presentation will describe how a medical school library improved the discoverability and accessibility of its legacy print theses and dissertations by implementing a cost-effective, selective digitization workflow that leveraged existing metadata and limited staff time. This workflow involved extracting and transforming existing metadata from the library catalog, selectively digitizing excerpts (title page, abstract, table of contents, and committee information) of all the theses and dissertations, and utilizing batch upload capabilities to add new descriptive records to the library’s institutional repository. In addition to improving the discoverability of these important scholarly resources, the medical library intends to implement a “scan-on-demand” service model in which patrons who are interested in obtaining the full text of a thesis or dissertation can do so by contacting the library directly. To date, the library has added descriptive records for more than 500 theses/dissertations to its institutional repository and has seen a tremendous return on its modest investment in the form of thousands of new page views and downloads within a few months.
