It is not currently known how many children living in Pennsylvania have an ASD. During the period 1992 through 2001, the number of children served in Pennsylvania under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) increased 855%. IDEA is the federal law that supports special education and related services for children and youth with disabilities. In the three counties in this project during the 2000–2001 school year, over 2,350 children ages 3–5 years received special education services, and 613 of these children had autism classifications. Of the 10,449 children aged 6–9 years who received special education services, 430 were classified as having autism. There are, however, additional children with ASDs who are in other types of special education classes, who are in regular education classes, who attend private school, or who are home schooled. ...

Current Trainees: University of Pennsylvania
Ashwin Patel graduated from Cornell University, and is a second-year Ph.D. student in Health Care Systems. He will also be completing an M.D. at Cornell. His undergraduate research experience focused on the effects of physician-patient relationships under managed care and their effect on physician decisionmaking. Since the spring of 2004, he has been actively working with Kevin Volpp, M.D., Ph.D., on two projects. One involves the effect of hospital competition and HMO penetration on the quality of care delivered in CA hospitals from 1983-2001. The other involves explaining how while there has been an increase in the number of uninsured individuals in CA, the amount of care provided to the uninsured has actually decreased. Alongside this research, Ashwin is looking to gain a deeper understanding of the marketing behavior of hospitals. ... [Read More]

University of Pennsylvania Law School Commencement Remarks, May 19, 2003
How did we get there -- from Point A, "John Marshall made his decision, now let him enforce it," to Point B, widespread acceptance of the final decision even where we might whole-heartedly believe the decision is wrong? The answer lies in 200 years of a national history that has included a Civil War and many years of racial segregation. It lies as well in a legal profession that, over the years, has reached out to others, taught by example, instilled respect for the rule of law. As lawyers we fully understand that a system that protects our constitutional liberties must consist, not simply of fine words on paper, but also of habits, customs, expectations, settled modes of behavior engaged in by judges, by lawyers, by the general public. And the miracle of today's reality is driven home to me every day in my job where, from my seat at the far side of the bench, I see before us men and women of every race, every religion, every ethnic origin, representing groups of every conceivable poin ...

The ability to rapidly and smoothly integrate the in-home training into the medical school curriculum is due largely to the Institute On Aging's seven years of experience in medical student and resident training in home-based primary care settings. It is also ideally timed with the School of Medicine's implementation this fall of "Curriculum 2000," a radical restructuring of medical student education with an appropriate balance of training in ambulatory and inpatient care sites, integration of the basic sciences with clinical medicine, and incorporation of various themes throughout the four year experience. ...
