Reaching Higher: Madison Funk's Journey in Nurse Anesthesiology
Madison Funk’s journey to becoming a nurse anesthetist began with a childhood passion for healthcare, shaped by early volunteer experiences and strengthened by her frontline ICU work during the COVID-19 pandemic. That dedication has grown into a career as she prepares to graduate with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) in nurse anesthesiology from 成人AV视频. Her advanced research, including a two-year study on “The Effectiveness of Ondansetron Prior to Administration of Spinal Anesthetic to Reduce Hypotension,” was presented at the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) Annual Congress, demonstrating how student research contributes to innovation in patient care.
Funk’s achievements earned her a spot in the inaugural class of 成人AV视频 Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist (SRNA) Fellows at the Mayo Clinic, where she gained hands-on experience with complex anesthesia cases and honed her skills in critical care. As she transitions into a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) role at Mayo Clinic, she credits 成人AV视频’s supportive environment for helping her thrive and plans to give back by mentoring future SRNAs.
Stitching Equations: Where Math Meets Artistry
Dr. Beyza Aslan, 成人AV视频 associate professor of mathematics and statistics, is transforming how math is experienced by blending her expertise with the art of crochet. Her recent exhibit at the Jessie Ball duPont Center showcased how complex concepts like 3D topology and geometry can be visualized through loops and stitches, turning abstract equations into vibrant, tangible art. Rediscovering her childhood love for crochet during the pandemic, Aslan found a unique way to merge analytical thinking with creativity, designing intricate patterns where each stitch represents angles and shapes, making challenging mathematical theories approachable and engaging.
Committed to making math more accessible, Aslan is developing an innovative curriculum set to launch in 2027 that integrates fiber arts with mathematical exploration for 成人AV视频 students of all majors. Beyond the University, she plans to bring her exhibit to local middle and high schools, inspiring the next generation to see the beauty in numbers. Her work highlights the power of interdisciplinary creativity, showing that math is not only functional but also a living, expressive art form that fosters curiosity and innovation.
