Guest Karthik Ram Panelists Richard Littauer | Abby Cabunoc Mayes Show Notes Hello and welcome to Sustain! The podcast where we talk about sustaining open source for the long haul. In this episode, Richard and Abby are joined by guest Karthik Ram, a research scientist at UC Berkeley's Institute for Data Science and Berkeley Initiative for Global Change Biology, as well as co-founder and director of the rOpenSci Project, and lead at URSSI. Karthik's journey from field ecologist to data scientist has propelled him into roles that advocate for sustainable scientific software and open science. He currently manages projects, fundraises, and mentors while also overseeing initiatives aimed at developing best practices in software development, advocating for supporting policy, building user and developer communities. He emphasizes the significance of reproducibility and sustainability in research software and offers an empowering approach to maintaining academic software. Hit download to hear much more! [00:02:00] Karthik explains what he does as a senior data scientist, and he tells us that he views himself as an “engineering manager” rather than an individual contributor. [00:03:01] His transition from a field ecologist to a data scientist was triggered by handling large amounts of data and developing software to work with it. [00:06:21] The conversation turns to the JOSS, the Journal of Open Source Science, and Karthik shares the origin story for the software review process. [00:09:03] Karthik dives into the UC Berkeley's Science Institute, he tells us how it started, and what his role was there. [00:11:11] Karthik's involved with the URSSI, where they aim to collect and disseminate best practices in software development, advocate for supporting policy at a national level, and grow user and develop communities around their projects. [00:12:55] One of the projects coming up in the fall for URSSI is they're going to run a school for research software engineering. [00:15:16] Karthik and Kyle assembled a course focusing on the best practices for developing sustainable research software by drawing on topics from past workshops and classes they've conducted. [00:17:12] We hear about the commonalities between scientific software sustainability versus normal open source software sustainability, and Karthik explains that scientific software sustainability is unique because it caters to niche groups, making it expensive to build and maintain. [00:20:20] Karthik tells us about a project he's working on with Patrice Lopez and James Howison, to identify what tools researchers use in various domains, how their usage evolves over time, and which clusters of tools drive research in certain areas. [00:23:34] As part of this project, Karthik and his team are using a tool called, GROBID, to process structured documents to XML, extract entities, and analyze the usage of software mentioned in scientific papers. [00:28:23] Karthik highlights the difficulties researchers face in keeping with best practices for code hosting and archival copies and discusses the misconceptions about GitHub being a permanent archive and the need for a safer, more reliable repository like Zenodo. [00:31:31] Richard brings up the issue of measuring the impact of code repositories and whether a similar system to academic journal impact factors could arise. [00:33:02] Karthik details an approach for maintaining academic software. [00:38:02] Find out where you can learn more about Karthik and his work on the web. Quotes [00:07:43] “They would bring their puppy and ask us to adopt it.” [00:15:45] “Even today, we do not have a good appreciation for research software and the role that it plays in driving research on all the things that we care about.” [00:16:21] “Another pet peeve that I have is that people think money is the solution to everything.” [00:16:38] “If we teach more projects about best practices, it's very likely that software that integrates those best practices will actually continue to exist.” [00:17:51] “The challenge with research software is there's a lot of software that sits on the long tail.” [00:28:39] “I think the challenge is that we don't really need to invent anything new.” [00:36:14] “Part of the work we want people to do is invest community early on.” Spotlight [00:38:47] Abby's spotlight is Governing Open by Shauna Gordon-McKeon. [00:39:15] Richard's spotlight is Bertram Ludäscher and William Michener. [00:39:43] Karthik's spotlight is Patrice Lopez.

The town of Joshimath in Uttarakhand's Chamoli district is sinking. More than 700 houses are known to have developed cracks and nearly 150 families have been moved to safer locations. The Uttarakhand and Central governments are scrambling to deal with a problem that is now a full-fledged crisis. Teams of scientists have been deployed to investigate reasons behind the sinking of the town. For years, friends of the Himalayas have been warning that unchecked building activity, including the construction of dams, could jeopardise the lives and livelihoods of people not just in Uttarakhand but impact those living in downstream areas. Ravi Chopra, founder director of the People's Science Institute, is one of those who has been watching the impact of so-called development on the Himalayas for more than three decades from his perch in Dehradun. Last year, he resigned as the chair of a high-powered committee to study the impact of expanding the road network to service the many shrines in Uttarakhand. Ravi has just returned from Joshimath and he has joined us to discuss what's happening there.

Ahmedabad is the largest city in the state of Gujarat (goo jer raht) in western India. It has a population of over eight million people. This is where Arpit Joshipura, GM of LFNetworking at the Linux Foundation, was born and raised. The city of Ahmedabad is divided into two major sections, dissected by the Sabarmati River. The east side is what's considered the “old” city, while the west side houses educational institutions such as Gujarat University, M.G. Science Institute, Government Polytechnic, and St. Xavier's College, where Arpit received a bachelor's degree in engineering in the late 1980s. In 1989, he moved to North Carolina to study Computer Engineering and Computer Systems Networking and Telecommunication. His master's thesis was in TCP IP. Think about that. There wasn't public email yet. No cellphones. There was no public connectivity to the DoD DARPA systems. The industry that was to become a lifelong passion for Arpit was on the cusp of being invented. I tell people, you have to like what you do and you have to do what you like. These days, people are like, “Oh, I will only do what I like.” Well, that's not what it is. If something is important and it's going to change the world, do it and you better like it. So that's the flexibility part of the new generation that we had 30 years ago. Arpit has now been in the networking industry for over 30 years. In the technology field, that's several lifetimes. What has kept him fascinated with network engineering for so long?

Jonathan and Chris speak to Natália Pasternak, PhD, the director of the Question of Science Institute. In trying to come to grips with COVID-19, Brazil was rocked by scandals involving research performed without consent and doctors being forced to prescribe treatment kits full of “miracle cures.” This led Pasternak to state that medicine in Brazil is effectively unregulated and to call for the impeachment of President Bolsonaro. Can science literacy fix these problems? Meanwhile, Chris and Jonathan try to blow each other's minds and fail miserably. And they mention ICQ, not to be confused with IQC (Pasternak's institute) or HCQ (a drug that doesn't work against COVID)! 1:55 Natália in the Big Apple 2:50 Brazil's dual healthcare system 4:42 Brazil and COVID-19: “a total mess” 7:25 Brazil's COVID kit 16:42 TrateCov, the app that recommended proxalutemide 19:12 Scientific literacy and medical doctors… and homeopathy 30:09 Falling on the deaf ears of the Supreme Court 31:24 Calling for the impeachment of President Bolsonaro 38:04 Medicine in Brazil is essentially unregulated 41:46 Vaccines and the Brazilian paradox 49:04 The Question of Science Institute 53:05 How do we fix these problems? * Theme music: “Fall of the Ocean Queen“ by Joseph Hackl.

In February this year, over 200 persons were killed and the 13.2 MW Rishiganga project was washed away. The 512 MW Tapovan-Vishnugadh hydro project was damaged. Even as Uttarakhand deals with the impact of climate change, the Environment Ministry has permitted the construction of seven hyro projects in Uttarakhand. What does this mean for the vulnerable Himalayan State? We answer these and other questions on the sustainability of hydro projects in this episode.

Adam Riess is a distinguished professor of physics at Johns Hopkins University and an astronomer at the Space Tele- scope Science Institute. In 2011, he shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with Brian Schmidt and Saul Perlmutter “for the discovery of the accelerating expansion of the universe through observations of distant supernovae.” The work— done by a team—was recognized almost immediately (in Nobel years, at least), making Adam one of the youngest winners ever of the physics prize at age 41. Though we are contemporaries, I consider Adam Riess a role model. His relentless pursuit of topics of great meaning is inspirational. In 2005, he and I competed in a worldwide competition to determine who is a worthy successor to the great physicist Charles Townsend, winner of the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics. I won first prize for my concept for the BICEP experiment—spoiler alert: I did not succeed in replicating Charlie Townsend's renown—and third place went to Adam Riess. On the day he won the Nobel Prize, my brother Kevin said, “Brian, you won the battle, but he won the war”—something only a big brother would say.

What is Liquid AI, and could it prove more effective than other types of AI? New research into neural nets and algorithms has revealed what some call “Liquid AI,” a more fluid and adaptable version of artificial intelligence. In my previous episode, I discussed the https://drpepermd.com/2021/04/12/a-simple-explanation-of-ai/ (basics of AI) and the limitations that hold it back. It looks like Liquid AI could provide the very solutions that the AI community has been searching for. In this episode of Short and Sweet AI, I explore the new research behind Liquid AI, how it works, and what it does better than other types of AI. In this episode find out: The limitations of traditional neural networks in AI How researchers created Liquid AI How Liquid AI differs from other types How Liquid AI solves the limitations of computing power with smaller neural nets Why Liquid AI is more transparent and easier to analyze Important Links & Mentions https://drpepermd.com/2021/04/12/a-simple-explanation-of-ai/ (A Simple Explanation of AI) https://drpepermd.com/podcast-2/ep-alphafold-the-protein-folding-problem/ (AlphaFold & The Protein Folding Problem) https://drpepermd.com/podcast-2/ep-what-is-dall-e/ (What is DALL·E?)

Machine learning algorithms are getting an overhaul from a very unlikely source. It's a fascinating story. Neural Nets have Traditional Limitations Neural nets are the powerhouse of machine learning. They have the ability to translate whole books within seconds with Google Translate, change written text into images with DALLE, and discover the 3D structure of a protein in hours with AlphaFold. But researchers have struggled with neural networks because of their limitations. Neural nets cannot do anything other than what they're trained for. They're programed with parameters set to give the most accurate results. But that makes them brittle which means they can break when given new information they weren't trained on. Today the deep learning neural nets used in autonomous driving have millions of parameters. And the newest neural nets are so complex, with hundreds of layers and billions of parameters, they require very powerful supercomputers to run the algorithms. A Neuroplastic Neural Net based on a Nematode Now researchers from MIT and Austria's Science Institute have created a new, adaptive neural network they're describing as “liquid” AI. The algorithm's based on the nervous system of a simple worm, C. elegans. And elegant it truly is. This worm has only three hundred and two neurons but it's very responsive with a variety of behaviors. The teams were able to mathematically model the worm's neurons and build them into a neural network. I've explained neural networks in my previous episode called A Simple Explanation of AI. Computer Software with Neuroplasticity The worm-brain algorithm is much simpler than the huge neural nets and yet accomplishes similar tasks. In current AI architecture, the neural net's parameters are locked into the system after training. With liquid AI based on the mathematical models of the worm's neurons, the parameters are able to change with time and with experience. This is a fluid neural net. As it encounters new information, it adapts. It's an artificial brain created out of...

QUOTES 01:52 "When you really know what's going on with the dynamics and you have measured it, it's very helpful for instance for those who are judging an officer to know why a bullet struck at a particular point or how long it took somebody to get to that point." 06:08 "We can give you the data published in peer-reviewed journals including the highest-rated journal in the world on ergonomics, that what we're currently teaching police officers is simply not effective for edged weapon defense." 07:47 "We're not arguing for shooting but are arguing that an edged weapon is extremely lethal, meaning deadly, and we can't ignore that. And so to say it's not, per comparison, is really not very empirically accurate." 15:19 "That skills that they bring to a situation are not the best that we, as a society, could provide. We're looking for communication, we're looking for better ways to contain and control and de-escalate." 17:05 "We know that people learn how to work in their profession by lots of hands-on application in as real a situation as we can get. And, in the police world, that's decision-making. Lots of decision-making." ----------------------------- SUMMARY In this episode of the National Police Association Podcast, Sgt. Betsy Smith interviews Dr. Bill Lewinski, Lead Instructor at the Force Science Institute, as he discusses the science behind police use of force. Bill explains that their work involves taking data that informs on angles, speeds of attack, and other empirical data on how police can better protect themselves from attack. He explains that their data shows police training needs to change to focus on other key areas such as decision-making to really make policing a profession rather than a trade." ------------------------------ HIGHLIGHTS 00:30 What is the Force Science Institute? 06:44 Circumstances that compel police use of force 12:04 Real-world circumstances: Shooting to wound is a bad idea 16:00 Policing is viewed as a trade rather than a profession 20:16 Police unions can help to hold standards for police hiring ------------------------------ RESOURCES National Police Association

Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
We're almost (but not quite!) at the end of our lengthy series on the intersection of money and parenting. Most recently, we talked with Dr. Allison Pugh to try to understand the answer to the question "Given that advertising is happening, how do parents and children respond?" In this episode we take a step back by asking "what about that advertising?" with Dr. Esther Rosendaal of Radboud University in the Netherlands whose research focuses on children's understanding of advertising messages. Can children understand that advertising is different from regular TV programming? At what age do they realize an advertisement is an attempt to sell them something? And what should parents do to reduce the impact of advertising on children? It's all here in this episode.

We all want our children to lead fulfilling lives. But it can be so hard to keep up with the latest scientific research on child development and figure out whether and how to incorporate it into our own approach to parenting. Here at Your Parenting Mojo, I do the work for you by critically examining strategies and tools related to parenting and child development that are grounded in scientific research and principles of respectful parenting.

You can also continue the conversation about the show with other listeners in the Your Parenting Mojo Facebook group. I do hope you'll join us Hello and welcome to the Your Parenting Mojo podcast. Today's episode is a continuation of a series that I'm doing on the intersection of childhood and money. We started by talking with New York Times money columnist Ron Lieber, on his book The Opposite of Spoiled and then continue the conversation with Dr. Brad Klontz about the money scripts that we pass on to our children. Next, we heard from Dr. Allison Pugh who studies the way that parents and children manage in our consumerist culture. Dr. Pugh is a sociologist who is more interested in how people interact with each other than the ways their brains work. And she also takes advertising as a given and says, since advertising and commercialization is happening, how do parents and children respond? But of course, there's another side to the story. And that's the perspective that yes, advertising is happening and what does this mean for our children? How do our children perceive advertisements? Can they understand when a company is trying to sell them something and can we teach them to be more aware about this or is it a lost cause? Our guest today is Dr. Esther Rozendaal. She's an associate professor At the behavioral Science Institute, as well as an associate professor in communication science at Radford University in the Netherlands. Dr. Rozendaal is an expert on young people's media and consumer behavior and Her research focuses in large part on children and advertising. She obtained a master's in Business Economics from Erasmus University Rotterdam followed immediately by an MSc in social psychology from the University of Tilburg in the Netherlands, followed by a PhD from the University of Amsterdam, for which

Something to Chew On - Global Food Systems at Kansas State University
Governmental organizations, universities and the food industry carry out research relating to food-system challenges. These challenges can deal with agronomic, nutrition, engineering, safety and even sociological impacts on food systems worldwide. Today’s guest, Jeanette Thurston, newly appointed director of the K-State Food Science Institute, has had an influence on many of those supporting organizations and now works with diverse interests in the area of food science at K-State. Jeanette brings a rich background in the science of food system-related research that has led to advances in areas as diverse as norovirus detection and water quality run off from small-scale dairies. Jeanette specializes in water-related public health, waterborne and foodborne virology and protozoal parasites, and food safety. In this episode, Jeanette shares some of her work with university- and government-based research and discusses her goals as she embarks on the organization and future direction of the integrated work carried out at the Food Science Institute.
At WALTHAM Petcare Science Institute, the goal is to understand what drives health and wellbeing in our pets—whether cats, dogs, fish, or horses. Vice president of the institute, Kay O'Donnell, discusses the following: How an identification of biomarkers and an understanding of the microbiomes of different species can elucidate what drives health and sickness in pets (e.g. a recently discovered biomarker helps identify cats at high risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) two years earlier than it would otherwise be detected) The importance of routine health checks and microbiome testing for pets What factors cause the microbiome to change in pets (e.g. age, environment) Through the use of vast amounts of data from veterinary practices and the implementation of an AI algorithm, the WALTHAM Petcare Science Institute has developed a method for obtaining useful information from samples of blood, urine, and feces collected from pets over the course of many years. This has given way to the ability to identify biomarkers that indicate pet health statuses and the likelihood of these statutes changing over time. More broadly, O'Donnell sees this as evidence of a new approach emerging in pet healthcare—one that not only values proactivity and early intervention, but that mirrors the approach that's emerging in human healthcare. She also discusses the role of diet and nutrition in the activity and composition of the microbiome, how the comparison of oral microbiomes between dogs and humans differ and how this is influenced by differences in diet, and what the future of pet health and animal-human interactions might look like.

When we think about training for high performance, we usually think about training our bodies. We might even think about working our craft. But how often do we consider training our emotions? Not very often, right? Well, if we care about performance, that’s actually a huge mistake. That’s a big part of we explore in this episode with Dr. Glenn Fox. Dr. Fox leads program design at USC’s Performance Science Institute, where he works with top athletes to devise strategies that optimize their abilities. He’s an expert on the ways that emotions - particularly gratitude and optimism - drive performance. According to his research, the ability to regulate emotions is the number one predictor of success in life. This is just as true in business as anywhere else. Since gratitude and optimism affect performance, companies who proactively foster these positive emotions via a culture of recognition have an automatic leg-up on those who don’t. In this presentation, Dr. Fox - gives us a functional definition of optimism and gratitude that you can use at your workplace (it’s not just rosy thinking and pretending everything is great) provides the 3 core components of a Competitor’s Mindset and walks us through a visualization strategy that top athletes often use, and that we can use in our own lives too.
