NPS, Hartnell Intern Partnership Takes Center Stage at Annual Symposium
No full textAs the largest partner in Hartnell College’s summer internship program, the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) enjoyed an undeniable presence during Hartnell’s latest Internship Symposium, Aug. 22. More importantly, the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Symposium showcased the impact of what can happen when NPS and other entities partner with the local college community
Microglia and astrocyte function and communication: what do we know in humans?
No full textMicroglia and astrocytes play essential roles in the central nervous system contributing to many functions including homeostasis, immune response, blood–brain barrier maintenance and synaptic support. Evidence has emerged from experimental models of glial communication that microglia and astrocytes influence and coordinate each other and their effects on the brain environment. However, due to the difference in glial cells between humans and rodents, it is essential to confirm the relevance of these findings in human brains. Here, we aim to review the current knowledge on microglia-astrocyte crosstalk in humans, exploring novel methodological techniques used in health and disease conditions. This will include an in-depth look at cell culture and iPSCs, post-mortem studies, imaging and fluid biomarkers, genetics and transcriptomic data. In this review, we will discuss the advantages and limitations of these methods, highlighting the understanding these methods have brought the field on these cells communicative abilities, and the knowledge gaps that remain.</p
Manzoni’s Line: From the Roll to the Infinite Painting
No full textSeveral cases of actually “unrolled” or “scrolled” paintings and drawings may be detected around 1960, a year that can be considered as the very topical turning point from modern to contemporary art. In 1959 Giuseppe Pinot Gallizio presented his seventy-four metres long roll of Industrial Painting in his renowned exhibition, The Cave of Antimatter, at the René Drouin Gallery in Paris. In the same year, at the Paris Biennale, Jean Tinguely exhibited Méta-Matic n. 17, a motorized machine made out of assembled scraps, which was able to draw on a continuous strip of paper, which was automatically unrolled and threw to the audience. In the same 1959, Piero Manzoni began to paint single black lines on several metres long strips of paper, which subsequently were rolled up and put in specific tube-cases (numbered and signed by the artist). In 1960 Manzoni could realize his dream about an almost endless line, scrolling and painting a line on a seventy-two metres long paper in Herning, Denmark. In the above mentioned coeval but nevertheless different artistic expressions, the meaning and even the artistic role of the roll, as well as the scroll, radically diverge from other well known forms of rolled-up languages. Beyond the medium used (may it be the parchment or the papyrus), the ancient rolls share with the virtual scrolling of our contemporary touch-screen tools an elementary function: both provide the human being with the best solution to quickly store and visualize thousands of information in a narrow space. During the catholic ceremonies in the Middle Age, the Exultet codes were showed the audience by scrolling parchments rolls, painted with figures and characters from the Bible. On the contrary, the Gallizio’s brutal industrial paintings were created with the purpose to spread and expand on the daily life space, in order to contaminate the established culture and language by means of an explosion (scrolling) of chaotic energy and spontaneous creativity. On the other hand, Tinguely pointed out the chaos underlining the post-war massive society, putting even visual arts out of the artist’s control; while Manzoni challenged the whole art system playing with the “disappearance” of his artworks, even though they were hand-made, signed and commercialized

A Tripartite Post-Recession Rebalancing
No full textIn this latest Advance & Rutgers Report, entitled “A Tripartite Post-Recession Rebalancing,” Dean James W. Hughes and Professor Joseph J. Seneca deliver an incisive assessment of the current market conditions and obstacles in the path of our economic recovery. They offer a statistical cautionary tale that the private and public sector need to hear and acknowledge in order for the economy to make continued progress.This report was published as Issue Paper Number 7, November 2011, in Advance & Rutgers Report
Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′
No full textFirst evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)
