The Vascular Biomechanics and Biofluids Laboratory is located in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Texas at San Antonio. The laboratory operates under the direction of Prof. Ender A. Finol, who has been working in computational hemodynamics for nearly a decade. For this challenge, the CFD simulations were performed by post-doctoral fellow Vitaly O. Kheyfets using the CFD solver Ansys Fluent v13 (Canonsburg, PA).

The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) has implemented a number of academic support systems to address obstacles to student success and to improve student retention. This paper describes the student demographics at UTSA, provides tracking data on student enrollment and retention, and includes discussion of the underlying causes of student attrition. It will describe some of the programs that are implemented to improve student success. Data is provided to measure the level of success of some of the programs that have implemented for the student success.

This case study illustrates a community-based constructive learning approach to ePortfolio development, and the subsequent phenomena and outcomes that came from the initial implementation. The authors discuss why and how an ePortfolio system was chosen, as well as faculty engagement, student engagement, and recommendations to others based on the University of Texas at San Antonio experience.

In a continuation of his studies (OHL20141229, OHL20140811) of organocatalyzed 2+2 photocycloaddition, Thorsten Bach of the Technische Universität München assembled (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 7661) 3 by adding 2 to 1. Li-Xin Wang of the Chengdu Institute of Organic Chemistry also used (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 6436) an organocatalyst to effect the addition of 5 to 4 to give 6. Shuichi Nakamura of the Nagoya Institute of Technology devised (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 4452) an organocatalyst that mediated the enantioselective opening of the aziridine 7 to 8. Zhi Li of the National University of Singapore cloned (Chem. Commun. 2014, 50, 9729) an enzyme from Acinetobacter sp. RS1 that reduced 9 to 10. Gregory C. Fu of Caltech developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 13183) a phosphine catalyst that directed the addition of 12 to 11 to give 13. Armido Studer of the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster showed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 9622) that 15 could be added to 14 to give 16 in high ee. Akkattu T. Biju of CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory described (Chem. Commun. 2014, 50, 14539) related results. The photostimulated enantioselective ketone alkylation developed (Chem. Sci. 2014, 5, 2438) by Paolo Melchiorre of ICIQ was powerful enough to enable the alkyl­ation of 17 with 18 to give 19, overcoming the stereoelectronic preference for axial bond formation. David W. Lupton of Monash University established (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 14397) the organocatalyzed transformation of the dienyl ester 20 to 21. James McNulty of McMaster University added (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 8450) azido acetone 23 to 22 to give 24 in high ee. There are sixteen enantiomerically-pure diastereomers of the product 27. John C.-G. Zhao of the University of Texas at San Antonio showed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 7619) that with the proper choice of organocatalyst, with or without subsequent epimerization, it was possible to selectively prepare any one of eight of those diastereomers by the addition of 26 to 25. William P. Malachowski of Bryn Mawr College showed (Tetrahedron Lett. 2014, 55, 4616) that 28, readily prepared by a Birch reduction protocol, was converted by heating followed by exposure to catalytic Me3P to the angularly-substituted octalone 29.
