June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Haemoglobin
• Each molecules of haemoglobin consist of two pair of
globin polypeptide chain. Each globin chain combine
with a haem group whose central iron atom is the site at
which oxygen attaches to haemoglobin. Adult
haemoglobin A consist of two α chain and two β chain.
Synthesis of haemoglobin A commences just before the
beginning of the third trimester. The proportion of
haemoglobin A (Hb-A) then progressively increases to
make up 25% of total haemoglobin at birth and about
97% at 1 year. Fetal haemoglobin Hb-F (α2 γ2) makes up
less than 2% and the remaining portion consist of
haemoglobin A2 (α2 δ2).
7. • Haemolytic anaemia are those anaemia that result
from an increase in the rate of red cell destruction
due to shortened red cell lifespan. The premature
destructon of red cell may result from two
fundamental defects :
• Haemolytic anaemia due to intracorpuscular defect.
• Haemolytic anaemia due to extracorpuscular effect.
The normal cells transfused to a patient with
intracorpuscular defect will survive for normal length
of time but the patient cell transfused to a normal
person have a shortened lifespan. The opposite
feature will be seen in extracorpuscular effect.
8. The aetiological classification of haemolytic anaemia :
1)Haemolytic anaemia due to intracorpuscular defect:
It may be Congenital defect or Acquired defect.
Congenital
a) Membrane defect
i) Hereditary spherocytosis.
ii) Hereditary elliptocytosis.
b) Haemoglobin defect
i) Haemoglobinopathies :
Sickle cell anaemia
Other Homozygous disorder (Hb-C,Hb-D, Hb-E)
Unstable haemoglobin disease.
9. • ii) Thalssaemia
β- Thalssaemia
α- Thalssaemia
iii) Double heterozygous disorder
Sickle cell β-Thalssaemia
c) Enzyme defect
i) Deficiency of pyruvate kinase or other enzyme
of Embden-Meyerhof pathway.
ii) Deficiency of Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
or other enzyme of pentose phosphate pathway.
iii) Drug induced haemolytic anaemia and favism.
Acquired
Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria.
11. • Miscellaneous
Haemolytic anaemia due to direct action of
chemicals and drugs.
Haemolytic anaemia due to infection.
Haemolytic anaemia due to burns
Lead poisoning.
12. • Disorder of haemoglobin
• The disorder of haemoglobin can be classified into
two broad groups :
• Haemoglobinopathies and
• Thalassaemia.
• Haemoglobinopathies
• Characterized by production of structurally defective
haemoglobin due to abnormalities in the formation of
the globin moiety.
• Thalassaemias are characterized by reduced rate of
production of normal haemoglobin due to absent or
reduced production of one or more types of globin
polypeptide chain.
13. Haemoglobinopathy
• The majority of abnormal haemoglobin differ from
normal haemoglobin by the substitution of single amino
acid in globin polypeptide chain. When one globin
polypeptide chain in a pair is affected it is heterozygous
state and when both globin polypeptide chain in a pair is
affected it is homozygous state. The homozygous state is
referred to as disease and the heterozygous state is
referred as trait.
14. • The common abnormal Haemoglobin :
• Haemoglobin Structural formula
• Hb-S α2β2
6glu--val
• Hb-C α2β2
6glu--lys
• Hb-E α2β2
26glu--lys
15. Sickle cell anaemia
• Sickle cell anaemia are hereditary disorder in which red
cell contain Hb-S. They include sickle cell trait
(heterozygous state) and sickle cell disease (homozygous
state). In the deoxygenated state the solubility of Hb-S is
ten percent of that of Hb-A. In the deoxygenated state the
cells containing Hb-S become rigid and deformed,
assuming a sickle or crescent shape.The sickling of red
cells has two major pathological effects : (i) the distorted
cells block small blood vessels impairing flow and
causing ischaemia and infarction (ii) repeated ‘sickle-
unsickle’ cycles lead to injury to cells whch are
prematurely removed either by reticuloendothelial system
or destroyed in the circulaion resulting in both
extravascular and intravascular haemolysis.
16. Thalassaemias
• Thalassaemia are heterogenous group of disorders with
genetically determined reduction in the rate of synthesis
of one or more types of normal haemoglobin
polypeptide chain.
• Classification :
• Alpha thalassaemia : Alpha thalassaemia minor (Trait)
Alpha thalassaemia major (Disease)
Beta thalassaemia : Beta thalassaemia minor (Trait).
Beta thalassaemia major (Disease).
17. β-Thalassaemia
• The genetic mutation of β-Thalassaemia leads to a
reduced rate or absent production of β-chain and
consequently a reduction in the amount of normal
Hb-A in the red cells. The total haemoglobin is
maintained in part by the production of γ and δ-
chain and thus increased Hb-F and Hb-A2 is usually
found. The lack of β-chain leads to accumulation of
free uncombined α-chains within the developing
red cells. These chain aggregate and interfere with
erythroid cell maturation and function resulting in
premature destruction of cells in the marrow and
consequent ineffective erythropoisis. β-Thalassaemia
are of two types : (1) β-Thalassaemia minor (trait)
(2) β-Thalassaemia major (Disease).
18. • β-Thalassaemia minor (trait) : This is the heterozygous
state for β-Thalassaemia gene. It is characterized by
moderate reduction in β-chain synthesis.
• Clinical feature :
• Little or no anaemia, No symptoms, and a normal life
expectancy.
• Blood picture : Haemoglobin level is usually normal or
mildly reduced but rarely less than 10 gm/dl.
• RBC count is normal or increased.
• MCV : Reduced
• MCH : Reduced
• MCHC : Reduced or normal.
19. • Blood film :
• RBC : Microcytic hypochromic with variable number
of target cell.
• WBC and platelets are normal.
• Reduction of MCV and MCH are relatively marked
considering the degree of anaemia in thalassaemia
trait.
• There is a closer correlation between MCV and MCH
with the degree of anaemia in iron deficiency
anaemia.
20. β-Thalassaemia major
• β-Thalassaemia major is the homozygous state
for β0 or β+ thalassaemia gene.
• Clinical feature :
• Sign symptoms of anaemia.
• Marked spleenomegaly
• Moderate to marked hepatomegaly.
21. • Blood Picture :
• MCV : Reduced
• MCH : Reduced
• MCHC : Reduced
• Blood film :
• RBC : Microcytic hypochromic with marked
anisopoikilocytosis. Tear drop cells are often present.
Target cells are prominent. There is leptocytes,
fragmented RBC, occasional spherocytes,
Polychromatic RBC and Nucleated RBC.
• WBC count is usually raised. Platelets are normal.
• Reticulocyte count is increased.
22. • Biochemical test:
• Serum bilirubin : May be raised.
• Serum iron : Increased.
• Serum ferritin : Increased.
• Transferrin : Completely saturated.
• Diagnosis is confirmed by :
Haemoglobin electrophoresis.
23. General evidence of haemolysis
• Evidence of increased haemoglobin breakdown :
