Zaman’s practice stems from a desire to bring different, and at times socially opposing, cultures together to highlight the beauty in each, and to call to attention a need for understanding. Oddly enough this is communicated via language that isn’t understandable, but that exact illegibility is what helps create a universal experience. Unable to read the text, the viewer is left to contemplate the intent of the artist and to glean meaning by focusing on the layers, both in the form of monochromatic and colorful applications of paint. There is room for both intellectual reads and more instinctive responses.

We describe a framework for interactive molecular dynamics in a multiuser virtual reality (VR) environment, combining rigorous cloud-mounted atomistic physics simulations with commodity VR hardware, which we have made accessible to readers (see isci.itch.io/nsb-imd). It allows users to visualize and sample, with atomic-level precision, the structures and dynamics of complex molecular structures “on the fly” and to interact with other users in the same virtual environment. A series of controlled studies, in which participants were tasked with a range of molecular manipulation goals (threading methane through a nanotube, changing helical screw sense, and tying a protein knot), quantitatively demonstrate that users within the interactive VR environment can complete sophisticated molecular modeling tasks more quickly than they can using conventional interfaces, especially for molecular pathways and structural transitions whose conformational choreographies are intrinsically three-dimensional. This framework should accelerate progress in nanoscale molecular engineering areas including conformational mapping, drug development, synthetic biology, and catalyst design. More broadly, our findings highlight the potential of VR in scientific domains where three-dimensional dynamics matter, spanning research and education.

Professor emerita of Ceramic Art at Alfred University, the number one ranked ceramic art Master’s program in the country by U.S. News and World Report, Currier was recently named first-place recipient of a 2017 Virginia A. Groot Foundation Grant. Her sculptures are represented in numerous private and public collections, which include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City; Renwick Gallery of the National Museum of American Art, Smithsonian Institution; Daum Museum of Contemporary Art in Sedalia, Missouri; Musée des Arts Decoratifs de Montréal; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art, Kyung-ju, South Korea; and Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia.

Show times: Fridays & Saturdays 7:30 pm & Sundays 2:00 pm Tickets: Adults $16 | Students/Seniors (62 ) $14 | Children (10 & Under) $12

That day the crew aided U.S. and Kurdish forces on the ground in the liberation of the northern Iraqi city of Sinjar from Islamic State militants. Listening to electronic signals, they quickly passed along multiple threat tips and alerted strike aircraft to 19 insurgent locations. They aided airstrikes that led to destruction of 26 enemy fighting positions and the death of 135 Islamic State fighters. One tip saved two Iraqi army helicopters from being shot down.

Patients with prosthetic heart valves are usually under annual follow-up with cardiology services. Lifelong anticoagulation is recommended for those with mechanical valves, the INR target of which differs according to the position of the valves, the type of valve, and LV function.

Ten years ago, entry- and mid-level workers were unlikely to draw notice from headhunters, who reserved their energy mostly for executives. But over the past decade, recruiters have started "moving progressively down the stack," using technology to target workers at less senior levels who may be open to new employment opportunities, says Jon Bischke, founder and CEO of Entelo, which has 700 corporate customers.

Thermal cycle performance has been a significant topic for the biopharm industry for some time.  The American Society of Mechanical Engineers Bioprocessing Equipment Committee, which drives many of the industry best practices, has developed a test procedure that will help the end user determine the potential performance of a given seal/diaphragm in these varying conditions. This “Appendix J” test (1) allows seal/diaphragm manufacturers to rate the performance of their elastomers based on a standard test protocol.  This testing is currently non-mandatory and is in its infancy of adoption by the end users in the industry.  Eventually these Appendix J ratings will provide end users a consistent basis to assess expected life expectancy with regards to thermal cycle performance.
