Our dear friend and colleague Dr. Eric Sullivan passed away on Friday, Jan. 13, 2023 after a courageous battle with glioblastoma. Eric started teaching at Carroll in the Department of Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science, and Physics in 2013. He was a treasured teacher, scholar, and colleague. Eric accomplished much in his time at Carroll. He was instrumental in the development of the Data Science program, he wrote and published a mathematics textbook, he championed the Student Undergraduate Research Festival (SURF), and he received the Carroll College Outstanding Teaching Award in May of 2022. He also provided public education opportunities through popular lectures and debates. See memories of Dr. Sullivan here.

Memorial Ceremony - Sunday, January 22

Please join Eric's family to celebrate a life well lived on Sunday, Jan. 22, 2023 at 3:00 pm in the All Saints Hall of the Lower Campus Center.

The memorial ceremony will be about 30 minutes long followed by ample time for family and friends to socialize and share memories of Eric with one another. There will be several types of beverages (including some of Eric's favorites) and light hors d'oeuvres.

All are welcome. The celebration will be live-streamed and recorded, and links will be shared as we get closer to Sunday's celebration. Instead of flowers, please consider a donation to the Dr. Eric Sullivan Data Science Fund(link is external) that will honor Eric’s legacy.

We offer mass at 7 p.m. in All Saints Chapel on Sunday nights! All welcome.

Join the Data Science and Biology Departments for the talk "Circadian Rhythms:  A Window into the Brain" from Dr. Christina Reynolds, Ph.D., on Tuesday 1/24 in SH114 at 12:30pm. Pizza will be provided!

About the talk

The circadian rhythm is a 24-hour internal clock that cycles us between sleepiness and alertness at regular intervals. Changes in circadian rhythms can signal the onset of neurological disease, especially conditions such as Alzheimer's disease or other dementias. Using technology developed at the Oregon Center for Technology and Aging, it is possible to capture the strength of circadian rhythms using unobtrusive methods over long periods of time. The data collected from these sensors and circadian rhythm analysis offers important insights into patient health without requiring expensive or inconvenient testing procedures.

For the past seven years, Dr. Reynolds has been working for the neurology Department of Oregon Health and Science University, as a data scientist studying the neuroscience of sleep.
