David Shubert, PhD, is a dean in the College of Arts and Sciences at Newman University, Wichita,
Kansas, where until recently he designed and cotaught the combined chemistry–physics for nurse
anesthesia course with Dr. Leyba. He was inducted into the national Achievement Rewards for
College Scientists (ARCS) Foundation prior to joining Newman University in 1987. Although his
area of expertise lies in organometallic chemistry, Dr. Shubert has taught intro- ductory, general,
organic, analytical, and instrumental analytical chemistry, as well as bio- chemistry, earth and space
science, general physical science, and chemistry/physics for nurse anesthesia. In 1995, Dr. Shubert
was honored by his students and peers with the Teaching Excellence Award. He has worked as a
chemical consultant with several local industries, includ- ing Vulcan Chemicals and BG Products.
Working with colleagues from five independent col- leges, and with financial support from the
National Science Foundation, the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation, and the A. V. Davis
Foundation, Dr. Shubert has offered numerous work- shops that provided training and access to modern
instrumentation to high school chemistry teach- ers. Most recently, he was recognized by the Wichita
Business Journal in 2014 as a Healthcare Hero. His research interests have evolved from
organometallic chemistry to chemical education.
John Leyba, PhD, is a professor of chemistry and head of the Department of Chemistry and
Biochemistry, University of North Georgia, Dahlonega, Georgia. Previously, he was a faculty mem- ber
at Newman University for 12 years, where he served as the chair of the Division of Science and
Mathematics and where he cotaught the combined chemistry–physics for nurse anesthesia course with
Dr. Shubert. Dr. Leyba has extensive industrial experience in the Department of Energy Complex.
wis
He was senior scientist, senior scientist A, and principal scientist with Westinghouse Savannah River
Company. In addition, he was the radiochemistry group leader for Rust Federal Services Clemson
Technical Center in Anderson, South Carolina. He was also a visiting assistant professor in the
Chemistry Department and adjunct assistant professor in the Department of Environmental
Engineering and Science at Clemson University. Dr. Leyba was also the Denver Area director of
operations for Canberra Industries. His research interests involve the rapid chemical separation and
detection of radioactive materials. Dr. Leyba has won several teaching awards including the Newman
University 2005 Teaching Excellence Award and two Outstanding Didactic Instructor Awards from
the Newman University Nurse Anesthesia Program.

Sharon Niemann, DNAP, CRNA, is director of the Nurse Anesthesia Program, Newman University,
Wichita, Kansas (since 2004). She has practiced as a certified registered nurse anesthetist since 1995 and
has been employed as a cardiovascular nurse anesthetist with Anesthesia Consulting Service (Wichita)
since certifying. She is a retired captain in the U.S. Army Reserve, having served overseas in spring
2001. Dr. Niemann serves on the Steering Committee, Mid-Continent Regional Center for Health
Care Simulation and is a member of numerous professional organizations including the American
Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) and the Kansas Association of Nurse Anesthetists
(KANA), where she has held numerous offices, including president and treasurer, and currently is the
program chair. She was also an item writer for the Council on Certification of Nurse Anesthetists
(2006–2009) and a member of Sigma Theta Tau International. Dr. Niemann has presented widely for
KANA and other state and local organizations on topics such as conscious sedation, anesthesia for total
of
joint replacement, and anesthesia for cardiovascular procedures. She teaches a variety of courses in the
Newman University Nurse Anesthesia Program and is principal investigator and clinical advisor for
multiple senior nurse anesthesia thesis projects. She received her Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice
degree at Texas Wesleyan University in 2016.
