In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Dr. Stephan Hamperl from the Helmholtz Zentrum Munich about his work on how conflicts between transcription, replication, and R-loop formation influence genome stability in human cells. During the early stages of his career Stephan studied conflicts between transcription and replication in human cells, particularly focusing on R-loop structures. In our discussion, he explains the formation of R-loops and their impact on genome stability, emphasizing the importance of the orientation of replication forks approaching R-loops in determining DNA damage outcomes. Stephan then delves into his work on the MATAC-Seq method, which analyzes chromatin domains at DNA replication origins to understand replication timing variability. The method involves methylating DNA linkers between nucleosomes and using nanopore sequencing for single-molecule readouts, revealing heterogeneity in chromatin structure at replication origins. Finally, Stephan discusses his automated image analysis pipeline for quantifying transcription and replication activity overlap in mammalian genomes, addressing the challenge of visualizing these processes simultaneously. The conversation concludes with insights into Stefan's future research directions, focusing on understanding transcription-replication conflicts' molecular basis and their potential implications in cancer cell transformation.

It supports a model-is-code paradigm and reuse of model components, inspired by software engineering. This will be a taster of what it looks like and what it can do, ie in applied mechanism design, smart contract analysis and the theory of institution design.Full SummaryAbout Foresight InstituteForesight Institute is a research organization and non-profit that supports the beneficial development of high-impact technologies.

"The question I had to ask myself was, 'Do you want to change who you are as a composer just so can match a particular sound that is in fashion or is expected of you in the concert hall world or do you want to say true to yourself as an artist?'" Time and time again, whenever this question pops up, it's always you turn towards yourself and ask yourself who you are and you stay true to who you are. You don't change your sound based on what is in vogue in the music world. Be true to yourself. Be the best version of yourself and don't try to be a second-rate version of anyone else."Christopher Tin is a two-time Grammy-winning composer of concert and media music. His music has been performed and premiered in many of the world's most prestigious venues: Lincoln Center, Kennedy Center, Hollywood Bowl, the United Nations, and Carnegie Hall, where he had an entire concert devoted to his music. He has also been performed by ensembles diverse as the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, National Symphony Orchestra, Metropole Orkest, and US Air Force Band.His song "Baba Yetu", originally written for the video game Civilization IV, is a modern choral standard, and the first piece of music written for a video game ever to win a Grammy Award. His debut album, the multi-lingual song cycle Calling All Dawns, won him a second Grammy in 2011 for Best Classical Crossover Album, and his follow-up release The Drop That Contained the Sea debuted at #1 on Billboard's classical charts, and premiered to a sold-out audience at Carnegie Hall's Stern Auditorium. His third album To Shiver the Sky also debuted at #1, and was funded by a record-breaking Kickstarter campaign that raised $221,415, smashing all previous classical music crowdfunding records. His fourth album, The Lost Birds, is a collaboration with acclaimed British vocal ensemble VOCES8 and was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2023.Tin is signed to an exclusive record deal with Universal under their legendary Decca label, published by Concord and Boosey & Hawkes, and is a Yamaha artist.

(00:07:06) - The Frost started as an experiment to see if a narrative film could be created completely from AI imagery. (00:08:38) - The filmmaking process was different because DALL-E images provided a starting point to build the story. (00:10:38) - Parker started generating images with DALL-E 2 when he got access to the early preview. (00:12:26) - Prompt technique to get consistent images by providing context about a hypothetical film. (00:15:57) Sponsors: Netsuite | Omneky (00:19:37) - Compositional continuity, like shot-reverse shot, was hard to achieve through prompting. (00:22:13)- Rubin would request specific shots and the team would prompt DALL-E 2 to create them. (00:25:24) - Filmmaking with AI as opposed to traditional filmmaking (00:32:25) - Getting consistent facial features for characters was very difficult. (00:39:03) - The storytelling helped cover inconsistencies that viewers might not notice. (00:40:15) - Working with the images DALL-E provides (00:41:54) - MacGuffin Object to tie scenes together (00:44:53) Inpainting and compositing to refine DALL-E Images (00:45:41) - Prompting for complex or novel compositions remains challenging. (00:50:43) - The AI art is limited by what exists in the training data. (01:02:05)- Animating the human characters was challenging because of missing or incorrect appendages. (01:07:36) - The team had to find creative ways to convey emotion through the limited animation. 01:02:24 - Animating subtle human movement and emotion is still very difficult. (01:06:35) - A romantic comedy would be much harder to produce with current AI capabilities. (01:12:17) - For Frost 2 they are using text-to-video models like RunwayML. (01:15:43) - AI voicing advancements applied to filmmaking (01:19:27) - The future of AI in Hollywood and filmmaking: quality narratives still require human vision LINKS: The Frost: https://www.thefrostpart.one/ MIT Tech Review Feature Article: https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/06/01/1073858/surreal-ai-generative-video-changing-film/ Behind the Scenes Videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p31COxNbTWs and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8k9MeXpSUU The Frost Part 2 – trailer – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcmwtRd_NIs X/SOCIAL: @Stephen_Parker (Stephen) @bigkickcreative (Josh) @Waymark @labenz (Nathan) @eriktorenberg @CogRev_Podcast SPONSORS: NetSuite | Omneky NetSuite has 25 years of providing financial software for all your business needs.

Compositional generalization refers to the capability of models to generalize to out-of-distribution instances by composing information obtained from the training data. In this episode we chatted with Najoung Kim, on how to explicitly evaluate specific kinds of compositional generalization in neural network models of language. Najoung described COGS, a dataset she built for this, some recent results in the space, and why we should be careful about interpreting the results given the current practice of pretraining models of lots of unlabeled text.

A new research paper was published on the cover of Aging (listed as "Aging (Albany NY)" by Medline/PubMed and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 1, entitled, “Single-cell transcriptomics of peripheral blood in the aging mouse.” Compositional and transcriptional changes in the hematopoietic system have been used as biomarkers of immunosenescence and aging. In this new study, researchers Yee Voan Teo, Samuel J. Hinthorn, Ashley E. Webb, and Nicola Neretti from Brown University used single-cell RNA-sequencing to study the aging peripheral blood in mice and characterize the changes in cell-type composition and transcriptional profiles associated with age. “Here, we applied scRNA-seq on young and old mice to dissect the transcriptional and cell composition changes of all cell types in the peripheral blood with age.” The team identified 17 clusters from a total of 14,588 single cells. They detected a general upregulation of antigen processing and presentation and chemokine signaling pathways and a downregulation of genes involved in ribosome pathways with age. In old peripheral blood, the researchers also observed an increased percentage of cells expressing senescence markers (Cdkn1a, and Cdkn2a). In addition, a cluster of activated T cells exclusively found in old blood was detected, with lower expression of Cd28 and higher expression of Bcl2 and Cdkn2a, suggesting that the cells are senescent and resistant to apoptosis. “Finally, targeting senescent cells using genetic approaches has been shown to ameliorate the aging phenotype [34, 35]. More recently, senolytics drugs are being identified or developed to target apoptotic pathways because senescent cells are known to be apoptosis-resistant [34]. Therefore, the Bcl2+ old T cells that we identified in old mice can potentially be targeted pharmacologically to ameliorate the phenotypes associated with the aging of the immune system.” DOI: https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.204471 Corresponding Author: Nicola Neretti - nicola_neretti@brown.edu Keywords: aging, single-cell transcriptomics, senescence, peripheral blood Sign up for free Altmetric alerts about this article: https://aging.altmetric.com/details/email_updates?id=10.18632%2Faging.204471 About Aging-US: Launched in 2009, Aging (Aging-US) publishes papers of general interest and biological significance in all fields of aging research and age-related diseases, including cancer—and now, with a special focus on COVID-19 vulnerability as an age-dependent syndrome.

Presented as part of ON AIR LA ANNEX, Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh and “musical weirdo and visionary” Beatie Wolfe discuss the art of composition, building worlds, and how being a conceptual artist can further open up and inform these spaces. Straddling multidisciplines, the pair also revisit Postcards for Democracy, their 2020 collective art campaign in support of USPS, and chat about its impact and how they are still receiving cards today ahead of the next election. This program is part of New Music USA's web magazine NewMusicBox “Guest Editor series”, which aims to celebrate a plurality of voices from across the nation and will feature exclusive content written, produced, or commissioned by a rotating artist or organization. Artistic visionaries Mark Mothersbaugh & Beatie Wolfe share a love of tangible artforms, in and amongst their futuristic explorations. In the summer of 2020, in light of the threat to our 225yr old postal service and at a time that could jeopardize the democracy of the country, Mothersbaugh and Wolfe joined forces for this collective postcard art demonstration. The aim of this campaign is to encourage as many people as possible to support USPS, our right to vote, and democracy as a whole via the power of art. The demonstration asks you to buy USPS stamps, design your postcard and then mail it to 8760 Sunset Blvd. The pair has so far received tens of thousands of postcards from all over the world which were exhibited at the Rauschenberg Gallery and have also been archived by the Smithsonian.

Lecture [23.01.2022] Can we solve the contradiction between the perfectly »organized soundscapes« produced by undisturbed ecosystems and our own drive for creation? The immersive concert »Fragments of Extinction« – a multidisciplinary project about the biodiversity of primary forests – shows us how to! David Monacchi, ecoacoustics researcher, composer and interdisciplinary artist, will give an overview of his long-term project »Fragments of Extinction«, which was conceived in 1998 as an environmental sound-art and science dissemination project, which is recording 24-hour 3D sound portraits of the oldest and most biologically diverse primary equatorial forests in Amazonia, Africa and Southeast Asia. The recordings are stored as sonic heritage of ecosystems, analysed within an ecoacoustics framework, composed into specific 3D sound-documentaries and played back in museums and public spaces through specifically designed Eco-acoustic Theatres. The ultimate aim is to foster audiences' awareness on the richness and fragility of life, at times mass extinction. Within the talk, the new specific analytic work »A comparative analysis of paleo-tropical and neo-tropical circadian hi-def recordings through advanced EEDI methodologies: a case study« in collaboration with Almo Farina, will be presented, as well as the current developments in the construction of Sonosfera®, the last ecoacoustic theater dedicated to deep ecosystem listening. The subsequent concert of Monacchi's »eco-acoustic compositions« will offer a journey through the most recent and oldest recordings made in the framework of the project, which represent a compositional complement of sound environments.

The Climate and Compositional Variation of the Highly Eccentric Planet HD 80606 b The Climate and Compositional Variation of the Highly Eccentric Planet HD 80606 b -- the rise and fall of carbon monoxide and elemental sulfur by Shang-Min Tsai et al. on Tuesday 13 September The gas giant HD 80606 b has a highly eccentric orbit (e $sim$ 0.93). The variation due to the rapid shift of stellar irradiation provides a unique opportunity to probe the physical and chemical timescales and to study the interplay between climate dynamics and atmospheric chemistry. In this work, we present integrated models to study the atmospheric responses and the underlying physical and chemical mechanisms of HD 80606 b. We first run three-dimensional general circulation models (GCMs) to establish the atmospheric thermal and dynamical structures for different atmospheric metallicities and internal heat. Based on the GCM output, we then adopted a 1D time-dependent photochemical model to investigate the compositional variation along the eccentric orbit. The transition of the circulation patterns of HD 80606 b matched the dynamics regimes in previous works. Our photochemical models show that efficient vertical mixing leads to deep quench levels of the major carbon and nitrogen species and the quenching behavior does not change throughout the eccentric orbit. Instead, photolysis is the main driver of the time-dependent chemistry. A transient state of [CO]/[CH$_4$] $>$ 1 after periastron is confirmed for all metallicity and internal heat cases. The upcoming JWST Cycle 1 GO program will be able to track this real-time CH$_4$--CO conversion and infer the chemical timescale. Furthermore, sulfur species initiated by sudden heating and photochemical forcing exhibit both short-term and long-term cycles, opening an interesting avenue for detecting sulfur on exoplanets. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2209.05910v1

Part two of our interview of Amanda rounds up a discussion of the work she is doing. We also share our take on why it is a celebration of a diverse praxis. The subject matter of naming sexual assault and human trafficking in the bible is subversive in its own right, but how Amanda is partnering with churches to teach these subjects makes all the more “guerrilla” in nature. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/guerilla-pastors/message

Dr. Daimler is an authority in Artificial Intelligence with over 20 years of experience in the field as an entrepreneur, executive, investor, technologist, and policy advisor. He is also the founder of data integration firm Conexus, and we kick our conversation off with the work he is doing to integrate large heterogeneous data infrastructures. This leads us into an exploration of the concept of compositionality, a structural feature that enables systems to scale, which Dr. Daimler argues is the future of IT infrastructure. We discuss how the way we apply AI to data is constantly changing, with data sources growing quadratically, and how this necessitates an understanding of newer forms of math such as category theory by AI specialists. Towards the end of our discussion, we move on to the subject of the adoption of AI in technologies that lives depend on, and Dr. Daimler gives his recommendation for how to engender trust amongst the larger population. Key Points From This Episode:Experience Dr. Daimler has in AI in an academic, commercial, and governmental capacity.An issue in the choices being made around how to create data that is useful in large organizations.Dr. Daimler's work bringing heterogeneous data together to influence better business decisions.How much money is wasted on ETL processes and how bad the jobs in that field are.The difference between modularity and compositionality and why the latter is the future of IT infrastructure.How compositionality enables scalability and the need of certain branches of math to justify it.The work Dr. Daimler is doing in the field of compositionality at Connexus.Whether it is crucial to grasp these newer forms of math to achieve AI mastery.How AI systems can integrate into contexts involving human labor and empathy.The need to bring together probabilistic and deterministic AI in life and death contexts.How to get the public to trust and believe in AI-powered tech with the capacity to save lives.What AI practitioners can do to ensure they use their skillset to create a better future.Tweetables:“You can create data that doesn't add more fidelity to the knowledge you're looking to gain for better business decisions and that is one of the limitations that I saw expressed in the government and other large organizations.” — @ead [0:01:32]“That's the world, is compositionality. That is where we are going and the math that supports that, type theory, categorical theory, categorical logic, that's going to sweep away everything underneath IT infrastructure.” — @ead [0:10:23]“At the trillions of data, a trillion data sources, each growing quadratically, what we need is category theory.” — @ead [0:13:51]“People die and the way to solve that problem when you are talking about these life and death contexts for commercial airplane manufacturers or in energy exploration where the consequences of failure can be disastrous is to bring together the sensibilities of probabilistic AI and deterministic AI.” — @ead [0:24:07]“Circuit breakers, oversight, and data lineage, those are three ways that I would institute a regulatory regime around AI and algorithms that will engender trust amongst the larger population.” — @ead [0:35:12]Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Eric Daimler on LinkedInDr. Eric Daimler on TwitterConexus

Today we're joined by Dillon Erb, CEO of Paperspace.  If you're not familiar with Dillon, he joined us about a year ago to discuss Machine Learning as a Software Engineering Discipline; we strongly encourage you to check out that interview as well. In our conversation, we explore the idea of compositional AI, and if it is the next frontier in a string of recent game-changing machine learning developments. We also discuss a source of constant back and forth in the community around the role of notebooks, and why Paperspace made the choice to pivot towards a more traditional engineering code artifact model after building a popular notebook service. Finally, we talk through their newest release Workflows, an automation and build system for ML applications, which Dillon calls their “most ambitious and comprehensive project yet.” The complete show notes for this episode can be found at twimlai.com/go/520.

This episode mostly focuses on traditional band and orchestra, but a lot of the information can apply to other genres of music too. Host: Emma

Monday, 8 February 2021, 10 – 11am A research presentation by Meg Collins Stoop (Department of Music) as part of the School of Creative Arts Research Forum (SCARF) in association with Trinity Long Room Hub. Abstract: As a PhD researcher at Trinity College, I composed eight works which incorporate seven different ethnic instruments into ensembles with western art music instruments. Research, that was both academic and experiential, revealed three things to consider when composing for such ensembles: the different manners of notation and learning music in non-western art music genres, alternate tuning systems, and the original contexts of the instrument. In this presentation, I will perform both representative and original compositions written for the Native American flute and for the xiao, a Chinese bamboo flute. Meg Collins Stoop In November 2020, Meg successfully defended her PhD Dissertation in Music Composition at Trinity College Dublin. Her dissertation is entitled 'Melting the Boundaries: The Integration of Ethnic Instruments into Western Art Music'. A native New Yorker, Meg earned her Master's Degree in Music Composition from Queens College, City University of New York, and a Bachelor's Degree in Music from Smith College, Northampton, Massachusetts. She was the Founding Director of the Adesso Choral Society, a select women's chorus which championed works by living composers, and has served as President of Connecticut Composers, Inc. The School of Creative Arts Research Forum meets fortnightly at 10am on Mondays during term and is led by the School's doctoral students. The aim of the Forum is to give a space for School researchers, both staff and postgraduate students, to share their ideas in a supportive environment. It is also an opportunity for the School to hear about the research of colleagues both from within TCD and outside who share our research interests. In line with the research agenda of the School, talks will encompass traditional research and practice-based research and will be followed by Q&A.
