Send us a textDr. Nikolay Kukushkin, Ph.D. ( https://www.nikolaykukushkin.com/ ) is Clinical Associate Professor of Life Science and a research fellow at the Center for Neural Science, at NYU ( https://liberalstudies.nyu.edu/about/faculty-listing/nikolay-kukushkin.html ). Dr. Kukushkin studies the molecular and cellular mechanisms of memory formation and his research has been exploring that memory is not just confined to neuronal circuits, but rather exists in all types of cells in humans and other organisms, relying on a conserved set of molecular tools.Working at the convergence of neuroscience, molecular biology, evolution, and philosophy, Dr. Kukushkin's core research program currently deals with the role of time patterns in memory formation and how these time patterns of experience determine which memories are formed, and which ones are forgotten.Prior to joining NYU, Dr. Kukushkin held a post-doctoral appointment at Harvard Medical School, Department of Cell Biology. He was also a fellow of the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation for his work on the temporal aspects of protein degradation and its role in cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and cognitive disability.Dr. Kukushkin's academic work has been published in Nature Communications, Nature Medicine, Neuron, and PNAS among others. Dr. Kukushkin is also the author of a bestselling, award-winning book “One Hand Clapping: The Origin Story of The Human Mind” (Alpina Non-Fiction, Moscow, 2020), which deals with the origins of human consciousness. The book will be published in English in 2025 by Prometheus (US) and Swift Press (UK and worldwide). The book won the most prestigious book prize for Russian nonfiction, the Enlightener (Prosvetitel) Award, as well as the Alexander Belyaev Medal, awarded to the best Russian-language nonfiction and science fiction.Dr. Kukushkin holds a D. Phil. in Biochemistry from the University of Oxford (UK) and a B. Sc. in Biology from St. Petersburg State University (Russia).Important Episode Link - Nature Communications, November 2024 - The massed-spaced learning effect in non-neural human cells - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-53922-x#NikolayKukushkin #NYU #NeuralScience #Memory #Learning #Neurons #Neuroscientist #Brain #NonNeuralCells #ProteinDegradation #Dementia #SeaSlugs #AplysiaCalifornica #Cramming #STEM #Innovation #Science #Technology #Research #ProgressPotentialAndPossibilities #IraPastor #Podcast #Podcaster #Podcasting #ViralPodcastSupport the show
How far can following your passions take you in science? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome the multi-faceted Leah Voytovich, a software development engineer for Project Kuiper who planned on going to med school but instead ended up working on space lasers for Amazon's satellite internet constellation. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing: the use of deuterium levels in the search for exoplanets with advanced civilizations. That's because signs of deuterium depletion can indicate that a planet has developed nuclear fission power. After that, Leah tells us a little about Amazon's Project Kuiper. She explains the wide variety of challenges to keeping the satellites, which are in low earth orbit, in communication with the ground. The project she's working on now is using infrared space lasers to communicate more securely within the satellite constellation. Chuck brings up the impact that these massive groups of satellites like Starlink are having on astronomy, from satellite streaks on dark sky surveys to image-destroying flares. Leah said there are people working on reducing Project Kuiper's impacts across multiple areas of concern. For our first question. Yasmin asks, “Will our satellites all be controlled by AI someday? If so, when? And is this a good idea?” Leah speculates that there may be some projects already using Machine Learning here on Earth, but that it will be further down the line before there's AI actually present in satellites themselves. Leah doesn't see a problem with the use of ML tools for science, as long as there are protections in place and that humans are still writing the software. After our break, Leah tells us about what she does outside her work – literally – from climbing Mount St. Helens in winter using an ice ax and crampons, to skiing, to running marathons – 3 so far! Then we're back to AI, ML, and the differences between the two. Charles talks about how important AI has beome as a tool for astronomers and other scientists. Leah explains the “Chinese Room Argument” and why it's a good analogy for machine learning, Allen shares the description of AI as a “stochastic parrot.” Our next question comes from Jonathan, who asks, “With so many problems facing the world like poverty, war and the climate crisis here on Earth, why should we spend money and resources on space exploration and astronomy?” Leah talks about how Project Kuiper is intended to serve underserved communities by providing internet access to people who don't already have it. That in turn increases global communication and connectivity and can then help address those other problems. And of course, to launch those satellites, we need rockets. She also explains how valuable internet access is to communities– something she knows a little about. She and Martin Leet co-founded Maji, a nonprofit in Uganda that uses solar power to make clean water easily accessible for refugee communities. Leah, a former EMT, explains how Maji also provides first aide medical training and agricultural training to the communities. The story of how Maji came to be is remarkable – we'll leave it to Leah to share that with you in the episode. We end with Leah recounting what it was like to be in Mission Control for the launch of the first Project Kuiper satellites. She was the representative for her team in the Mission Control room, so she was the one who actually got to say “Go” for her service during the final pre-launch Go/No Go review. If you'd like to know more about Maji, you can check out the nonprofit's website here. We hope you enjoy this episode of The LIUniverse, and, if you do, please support us on Patreon.

This meeting is particularly noteworthy as it is uncommon for top executives from major semiconductor companies worldwide to convene in a single location. TSMC confirmed Liu's attendance at the meeting but provided no further details. 台灣積體電路製造股份有限公司(TSMC)董事長劉德音收到了邀請,將與日本首相岸田文雄在日本會面。這次會議非常引人注目,因為全球主要半導體公司的高層很少聚集在一個地方。台積電證實劉德音將出席會議,但沒有提供進一步的細節。 According to reports, executives from several prominent global semiconductor firms, including TSMC, Micron Technology Inc, Applied Materials Inc, International Business Machines Corp, Intel Corp, Samsung Electronics Co, and Belgium's semiconductor research group Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre, have been invited to the discussions at the prime minister's office. The gathering of top executives from these industry leaders is an exceptional occurrence. 根據報導,多家知名的全球半導體公司的高管,包括台積電、美光科技公司、應用材料公司、IBM、英特爾、三星電子和比利時的半導體研究機構IMEC,受邀參加首相辦公室的討論。這些行業領導者的高層聚會是個罕見特例。 Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, along with Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Yasutoshi Nishimura and other senior officials, will attend the meeting. The focus of the discussions will be to strengthen Japan's economic security and enhance the country's semiconductor supply chain. During the meeting, the executives are expected to outline their investment and business development plans in Japan. 日本首相岸田文雄將與日本經濟產業省大臣西村康稔和其他高級官員一起出席會議。討論的焦點將是加強日本的經濟安全和提高該國的半導體供應鏈。在會議期間,高管們預計將概述他們在日本的投資和業務發展計劃。 Recognizing the importance of collaboration, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno emphasized that achieving semiconductor supply chain resilience requires the concerted efforts of like-minded nations and regions, rather than relying on individual countries alone. The meeting aligns with the growing calls from the United States for its allies to work together in addressing challenges posed by China in the semiconductor industry and other technological domains. 日本內閣官房長官松野博一認識到半導體供應鏈的重要性,強調實現半導體供應鏈的彈性需要志同道合的國家和地區共同努力,而不僅僅依賴個別國家。此次會議與美國呼籲其盟友共同應對中國在半導體和其他技術領域帶來的挑戰之警示相吻合。 TSMC's commitment to Japan is evident through its ongoing endeavors in the country. The company is constructing a wafer fab in Kumamoto, Japan, with plans for commercial production next year.

In this episode of The Future Built Smarter, Jeff Ryan, Managing Principal for Design at Christner Architects, joins us for a discussion on the Ball Helix Central Research & Development Center, winner of a 2022 Design Excellence Merit Award for Innovation from Lab Manager magazine. Christner was the architect, lab planner, and interior designer for the project, and IMEG provided structural, MEP, fire protection, and civil design, in addition to commissioning services. The center transforms the research culture and the scientific capabilities of Ball Horticultural Company, the world's largest ornamental seed producer. In collaboration with Ball's steering committee, the design team identified three design principles for the project. “One was, of course, to enable great science,” Jeff says, adding that the company—with an average employee tenure of 27 years—was experiencing a wave of Baby Boomer retirements. “So, they really wanted to elevate their ability to attract researchers and enable new and existing staff in their ability to do great work.” The second goal was to evolve the company work culture through strengthening the existing collaboration, trust, mentoring, communication, respect, and safety, and adding focus on employee happiness, productivity, and wellness. “Finally, they wanted to communicate all the great research that was coming out of the center,” Jeff adds. This would be accomplished by: Improved connectivity between research and business through shared spaces, transparency, and science on display Creating technology and spaces for global communication and collaboration Enhancing client visitors' experiences with connections to the science, the gardens, and the greater Ball Horticultural Company brand A central part of the project involved incorporating the center's existing demonstration garden into the overall design of the new building. “This garden is beautiful, and we decided to leverage it in the scientific space with the idea that the researchers would be engaged with the garden as a physical representation of the work they're doing,” Jeff says. “The building is formed so that the garden pushes into the middle of the research space and you can see it from wherever you are. You can see it from the office space and from within the labs and even from the back of house with windows that penetrate all the way through the research space. It's a stimulating environment for discovery.” In addition to this podcast, you can learn more about the Ball Helix project and see photos of the facility by reading the Christner Architects project story and the IMEG case study.

Boeing says it’ll be repurposing the Seattle-area facility that has served as the focus for research into the composite materials used in aircraft ranging from the B-2 Stealth bomber to the 787 Dreamliner.In an emailed statement, Boeing said much of the work being done at the Advanced Developmental Composites Center, situated across the street from Seattle’s Museum of Flight, will be distributed to other Boeing facilities — mostly in the Puget Sound region. Other work, unrelated to Boeing Commercial Airplanes, will continue to be done at the 600,000-square-foot facility.Boeing cast the move as a cost-saving and efficiency-enhancing measure.“We continue to take comprehensive action across the enterprise to adapt to our new market reality and transform our business to be leaner and more sustainable for the future,” the company said in its statement. “This is one of several steps we’re taking to streamline our operations and make more efficient use of our facility space. Boeing continues to invest in development of advanced composites for future products, and going forward this will take place in other local Boeing facilities.”Join your host Sean Reynolds, owner of Summit Properties NW and Reynolds & Kline Appraisal as he takes a look at this developing topic.Support the show (https://buymeacoff.ee/seattlepodcast)

Og hvad er status på coronasituationen og diverse aflysninger, og hvordan er egentlig udsigterne til at kunne afholde den traditionsrige juletræstænding?Hun fortæller også, hvad hendes job indebærer, hvordan hun har fået jobbet, og hvordan hun endte i Solrød, og hvorfor det egentlig er vigtigt at støtte det lokale, fysiske center med bymiljø.Og så kommer hun med tips og tricks til Solrød, ligesom vi taler om Solrød Center i gamle dage og skal høre Solrød-borgernes bud på 'ugens sol og ugens fedtemøg'.PREMIERE, SÆSON 2 AF PODCASTEN MIT SOLRØDVært: Morten Kiersgaard Espersen, journalist (flyttede til Solrød i april 2018)Gæst: Susanne Kaihøj, centerchef Solrød CenterSted for optagelse: Cafe Nybos, Solrød CenterAbonner på 'Mit Solrød' i Spotify, Apple Podcast osv og følg også 'Mit Solrød' på både Facebook og Instagram, så du selv kan stille spørgsmål til gæsterne og komme med 'ugens sol og fedtemøg'STØT LOKALT!
AI at the Edge is now in vogue. But it presents a fundamental problem in that higher compute performance is needed, yet there are many constraints at the Edge, including size, weight, power, and cost. Each of those constraints presents its own unique problem. To understand how to design at the Edge, I spoke to Steven Wu, Vice President of the Research and Development Center at DFI in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Dr. Matthias von Herrath is committed to clinical translation of immune-based interventions in autoimmune and metabolic diseases, the latter in particular being an exciting emerging field. His expertise and main strength is working at the interface of experimental research to interpret and refine early phase I/II clinical trials in order to optimize strategies for phase 3 trials and drug approval. This comprises translation from various animal models to human interventions, optimization of immunotherapies and their relative ranking, assessment of combination therapies, development of biomarkers as primary or secondary outcomes, induction of antigen specific tolerance in autoimmunity, regulatory cells and clinical T cell assays. In order to be better able to pursue his goal of clinical translation, Dr. von Herrath accepted the position of Vice President and Head of NovoNordisk’s diabetes R&D Center in Seattle in autumn of 2011. At NovoNordisk, he built the diabetes translational unit, which is based on less conventional and innovative design.Understanding disease pathology remains very close to Dr. von Herrath’s heart and NovoNordisk enabled him to keep an appointment at La Jolla Institute, where he pursues NIH-funded research on the pathology of type 1 and 2 diabetes as part of the national pancreatic organ donor network (nPOD). This is a multinational collaborative effort where data are shared in real time and no intellectual property yet lots of new knowledge on the pathology of type 1 and 2 diabetes is being generated. It is a unique new collaborative paradigm for academic and also industry settings.https://www.lji.org/news-events/news/post/lji-professor-named-worlds-leading-type-1-diabetes-expert/https://www.lji.org/news-events/news/post/qa-with-dr-matthias-von-herrath/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PznVEXcL5Lk&t=58s-------------Welcome to the Pardon My Pancreas podcast!!

Visual object detection and recognition are needed for a wide range of applications including robotics/drones, self-driving cars, smart Internet of Things, and portable/wearable electronics. For many of these applications, local embedded processing is preferred due to privacy or latency concerns. In this talk, we will describe how joint algorithm and hardware design can be used to reduce the energy consumption of object detection and recognition while delivering real-time and robust performance. We will discuss several energy-efficient techniques that exploit sparsity, reduce data movement and storage costs, and show how they can be applied to popular forms of object detection and recognition, including those that use deep convolutional neural nets. We will present results from recently fabricated ASICs (e.g. our deep CNN accelerator named “Eyeriss”) that demonstrate these techniques in real-time computer vision systems.

On our last podcast, we talked to Ståle Møller, the co-founder and lead designer of Sweet Protection, about the critically important issue of head injuries, and how helmets can mitigate the risks we take outside. Today's episode can be viewed as Part II of that conversation, and we focus a bit more on The Future and What's Next? To that end, we recruited the senior director of R&D at Giro, Rob Wesson, to further flesh out some of the fundamental issues surrounding head injuries, what sorts of new safety standards we can expect to see in the near future, and how helmet designs will evolve in the coming years.Rob and I cover a lot of important ground in this conversation, and you will find a detailed breakdown of the topics and the specific times at which we cover them in the Show Notes below.TOPICS & TIMES:Rob’s background & what his work at Giro’s R&D Center involves (2:40)What most customers regard as the #1 factor when selecting a helmet (12:18)Which helmet type (road bike, mtn bike, ski, etc) is the most labor-intensive and most difficult to design? (14:40)Where are we headed in terms of helmet design? (18:14)Why MIPS matters, but why Giro wasn’t an early adopter (20:15)What's the Difference between “MIPS” and “Rotational Energy Management Systems” (22:38)Helmet Standards & Certifications: Who sets them & How does it all Work? (25:10)Setting the record straight on the term “Multi-Impact” (30:10)Why Rob doesn’t think I should start skiing in a hockey helmet (43:37)CTE: How does our growing understanding of head injuries and CTE affect your work? (36:30)Why people who are against the use of helmets—and the evidence they tend to cite—are off base. (42:28)4-5 years from now, what will be the biggest differences in the helmets from what is available today? (45:38)What is Giro doing different or better than other helmet companies out there? (50:19)A dirty little secret about over 80% of the companies that sell helmets (52:35)What’s the real difference between a $60 helmet and a $250 helmet? (59:15)Why Giro is coming out with a $600 ski helmet, and why it was a huge project (1:02:22)How does Giro determine what sort of shape and fit their helmets will have? (1:04:40)EPISODE SPONSOR: Nest BeddingMore studies are showing that the quality of your sleep is directly related to the quality of your life. So even if you happen to have a cool job, the best friends, or you make a bunch of money, you won’t feel all that great if you aren’t well rested. (This is a super obvious point, by the way, so how come so many of us report that we aren’t getting enough quality sleep?) So if you’d like to literally improve the overall quality of your life and feel better every single day, you might want to consider a new mattress.

The Yale School of Engineering & Applied Science presents the 2011 Victor M. Tyler Distinguished Lectureship in Engineering with Eric Fossum, Professor of Engineering in Dartmouth’s Thayer School and a consultant to Samsung Electronics’ Semiconductor R&D Center. Dr. Fossum, who earned a PhD in electrical engineering from Yale in 1984, is one of the world’s leading solid-state image sensor device physicists, best known for inventing the CMOS image sensor. His “camera-on-a-chip” technology is used in nearly all camera phones and webcams, digital-still cameras, high-speed motion capture cameras, automotive cameras, dental x-ray cameras, and swallowable pill cameras. An entrepreneur as well as inventor, Fossum’s transfer of his own IP portfolio to industry has yielded one of Caltech’s greatest licensing revenue streams, and he has served as CEO of two successful high-tech companies. His work was included on Reuters’ list of “Baby Boomer Inventions that Changed the World,” and Forbes calls him an inventor who has “changed your life.”
