The Development of a Cocktail of Microglia and GFAP For Easy Diagnosis - Anisha Bhasin B.S, Sarah Holguin, MBA. B.S, Joe Vargas, M.S Microglia and GFAP are distinct neural markers, typically used separately to diagnose the degree of neurological infection and injury. Microglia, a glial cell, is used in the immune response of the central nervous system. GFAP is an astrocyte marker; astrocytes provide structural support and make up the blood-brain barrier. Using the two in conjugation with one another would prove to be an efficient diagnostic tool. A cocktail was constructed with optimal titration to observe the two markers in unison. In clinical usage, it will provide an efficient diagnosis of chronic inflammatory conditions of the central nervous system. The staining was conducted in IHC and fluorescence to compare morphology and count. Due to anatomical similarities, there tends to be morphological confusion between microglia and GFAP. However, when stained in conjunction with one another, notable differences can allow for easy distinction. This is why a cocktail run with a dual staining technique would be a superior diagnostic tool in comparison to testing the two markers independently.

And I think with the project that we've got going on, we're trying to fill those gaps.” - Joe Vargas “The value that comes from eliminating those blind spots in business, those are gonna be what bring home the margins. Those are gonna be what keeps businesses operating. And that's what we have to focus on, is to make sure we can bring in the data to make sure that we avoid some of the other destinations that we've seen some other commodities roll into.

Good evening sports fans.  Just kidding.  If you're listening to this, you're not into sports.  This past Sunday, AJ, my brother, and myself, got together and re-watched part four of Obi-Wan Kenobi.   All I can say is, for everything thing the show does well, it's held back by the awful dialog.  Moses Ingram is trying really hard.  In doing research for this episode, I noticed she was in Queen's Gambit.  She played Jolene, Beth Harmon's childhood friend from the orphanage!  I had no idea.   The show is getting better.  However, the sum of the parts is not equal to the sum of the whole.  Shout out to Joe Vargas from The Angry Joe Show and his Angry Review of part four.  I laughed my ass off when I saw the thumbnail for his review on YouTube.   The three of us agree, the show looks and sounds great.  Visual effects, music, cinematography, etc. All of it is fantastic.  It cannot make up for the script and the story.  They fall short.  Here's hoping for part five.   P.S.  One more thing I mention is thanks to Screen Crush on YouTube.  Ryan Arey points out the light sabers the inquisitors collected that are on display in the room that Tala meets Reva in.  Just want to give credit to him.  I would have missed it, if he hadn't said anything.  Good catch.   Don't watch Obi-Wan Kenobi on Disney+. It sucks. Read about Obi-Wan Kenobi when he was a badass. Use these links to support the show. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

And what that does is it allows the industry, anybody with a username and password, into this analytics dashboard … to go in and look at the packaging all around the world. …And so it's a really powerful tool for those people that are looking to maybe redesign packaging or find out where their blueberries are ending up.” - Tom Barnes “It's not just about having (data) sitting somewhere where people can access it, but how do we take that information, the right slices or the right views of the day. … I think this type of data that we're talking about, and having more hands on deck, is just going to make all that stuff flow that much more. - Grant Prentice Topics covered include:  An introduction to Joe Vargas, newly appointed director of business intelligence for USHBC. A review of new data tools and a look at future prospects for the industry.  The value of collecting data regarding produce categories, consumer trends and household habits, and the benefits of making that data available and transparent to producers.

New section, listener submitted images. Lots of people submitted images. Thank you! Tim Lawson, Eli Temchin, Linda Maier, Alyce Bender, Jon Whitaker, Colin Mayer, Chris Bartell, Benjamin Stuben Farrar, Mike Sirach, Joe Vargas, John Scane.  The images I’m choosing are from Colin Mayer. This image is from St. Kilda, Scotland. I really was drawn to this image because it somewhat made me think of the beehive huts in Ireland. But not really. These are quite a bit different. Anyway, the rock texture really comes through well in the foreground building. The entryway is small and you’d have to nearly crawl in it seems. There’s moss or grass or peat on the roof as well and that’s cool, it gives a certain ambiance that is nice and authentic feeling. There’s buildings that are somewhat blurry in the background. They provide a nice background. And behind them there’s more hovels like this foreground element and then in the mid-ground there’s a rock wall that connects to another little moss-covered room. Pretty much the only thing I’d change about this image is the heavy vignette. I think this image needs a vignette, but it needs to be less heavy and probably it should have a custom application as well. You can do this in Lightroom or PS where you brush in the vignette right where you want it. The lower right corner feels a bit empty and that’s probably OK. An image usually benefits from having some negative space. The DOF is small or shallow enough to keep the attention on the foreground building that we don’t really need to worry about the background elements distracting too much. They provide a good stage for the whole scene. Eli Temchin submitted one of an elephant. It’s B&W as well, and it’s quite striking. I love the texture coming through in the skin of the elephant. We see enough of the creature to certainly know what it is, but we only see a small portion of this beast, and that’s a good thing. By zooming in we’re looking more at shapes and forms to communicate the subject, but they are impartial shapes and forms. It’s not complete. This leaves more for the brain to figure out and work on. It’s good that way. There’re two things I’d likely change to this image. I think I’d move the camera slightly more to the left. In the view as it currently is, we almost see the second eye. This leaves a bit too much negative space in the forehead/trunk area. By moving it, we’d have more of the shoulder area on the left side of the frame showing and the eye would be pulled out of the center of the frame. It’s almost in the horizontal center and by moving it a bit to the right we’ll create a bit more tension in the image. Also, the depth-of-field feels a touch too shallow for me on this one. The eye feels slightly soft. But we’d want to keep the crustiness on the front of the face too, so a bit more DOF is needed to accomplish that. Linda Maier submitted one of ice on Yosemite Creek.  I decided to also add this image because, well, the ice is likely to soon be melting and I’m really glad to see a good image like this coming together, and that the effort was put in to get out there in this weather and be inspired by what we see. This looks like a mini river flowing from left to right for me. It’s got a great starting point in the upper left corner with some strong elements pointing down and a bit to the right. As the eye travels down the ripples in the ice take over and they bring you off to the right side of the image. There’s a lot of chaos in this image too. I’d say the ice pattern is stronger than texture in this image. But texture certainly does come through nicely. There’s some grasses on the lower portion of the frame that provide context of location. It’s fairly high contrast with lots of highlights and lots of shadow areas and the lines are just squiggling all over the place. One change I’d make on this image would be to crop the rock element out of the top portion of the frame. I find it a bit distracting and letting the ice go off to “nothing” as it were would suggest a larger icefield. Leaving the edge unresolved like that forces the mind to fill in the blanks. Don’t think of it as lying. Think of it as eliciting the imagination! Thanks again to everyone who submitted images. I love it.  Next topic for listener images The topic this next time is the color red. However red manifests itself in your image, that’s what I’m looking for.  A Quick Announcement/Reminder Before we get to the main topic, I wanted to cover something that recently came up in the Master Photography listener group. I’ll likely make a mention there as well to try and ensure everyone is aware of this. That is, a listener asked us why things were so quiet over there at the IP websites. Especially the IP+ website. I’ve also had a listener ask about the rGPS app that was also published by IP. As far as the app is concerned I was able to contact Jim Harmer a while a go and he gave me a bit of info I can share. Basically the question was, “will it get updated anytime soon?” I don’t recall the exact question from the listener, but that was the main point. They liked the app, but wanted to see some updates happening. Jim stated that he’s buried in other projects but he’d “REALLY” like to do more with it. He also pointed out that there’s so much good data in it that has been added by users. But with the other projects it’s not going to receive any attention in the near future at least. The most recent listener concern was regarding IP+. The biggest thing to ensure everyone is clear on is that there’s no formal business relationship between IP+ and myself, and as far as I know, none of the other podcasters in the Master Photography group either. I contributed one video on camera cleaning and tripod cleaning when I first came on as a contributor. But any videos produced were “one-time” deals and for the last few years I’ve been focusing my efforts on providing my own solutions. Most of you know about the print course I’m developing. That’s still on schedule for an early April release. I’m striving for April 2. I’ll be spending my spring break on finshing it up and getting it ready for everyone. But I continue to spend pretty much each Friday and Sunday getting content produced either for the podcast or this course. And it’s been about three weeks since I last published an episode, so you know where my attention has been going JMe being quiet does not mean I’m taking it easy, that’s for sure! If you’re an IP+ member and you want to know more, I’m afraid I won’t have any answers for you. With that, let’s get on to the main topic. I’m going to blend in the idea of reading the light and making the most out of your shoot as I talk a bit about my trip to Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies. For the details on this part of the show, please check out this blog post on my main site.

In this episode of Frankly Speaking, Frank Rossi chats with legendary turf pathologist Dr. Joe Vargas of Michigan State University about his 50 year career as a plant pathologist, teacher, and muckraker. Never one to shy away from controversy or "rocking the boat", Joe Vargas is perhaps the original "outside the box" thinker... and having recently received his 50-year service pin from Michigan State, is still at it today Always ready to drop the gloves with both colleagues and conventional thinking, Joe Vargas is one of a kind. Flamboyant, aggressive and grating to some, he is always entertaining. There is nobody with a better grasp of both the history and current state of turfgrass management. Presented by Civitas and DryJect.
