Have you ever been witness to the day to day activities that happen at a traffic signal and how lives of people around it are affected? You would have caught a glimpse of it while stopping your vehicle at a traffic signal or walking past it on the pavements/footpaths but the reality is only for those who live their life at these signals. Those innumerous vendors, beggars, eunuchs, lepers, street kids, drug addicts, prostitutes, vendors etc. for whom an entire world is restricted to these signals.
'Traffic Signal' tells that tale of about 60 odd characters who have their world centered on this place. Each of them have their own life and how they make it happen on the road is what the film is all about.

How DevOps is Transforming IT, and What it Can Do for AcademiaNicole Forsgren
Today's business climate is challenging companies to innovate and respond to the market, and forcing them to do so with much greater pressure than ever before. DevOps provides organizations with the ability to respond to this challenge, helping them to innovate and create at velocity and bring value to their business through software, because there really aren't any major companies that aren't software companies.
But the *real* message here is that DevOps is more than just technology. We have been beating our drum for years that DevOps is revolutionary because it goes so far beyond just the technology (tools) -- it is also the practices and the culture. All three of these are required for DevOps to truly effect transformational change. Technology professionals also realized they had to reach out to peers in other silos and collaborate with them in all three areas in order to truly succeed -- and that if the changes were done courageously, with empathy, embracing the new diversity of thought and methodology, things would be amazing. And they ARE.
Academia is facing similar challenges to innovate in the face of new challenges. As a fellow academic (or very recent academic! I still feel like a member of the tribe), I felt these pressures. Perhaps we can look to DevOps methodologies for inspiration and ideas to innovate at velocity. It will take more than just tools, it will take novel practices and collaboration with peers we haven't traditionally worked with.
I have recently relocated to the Denver, Colorado area and I am actively seeking a position, in research, that can challenge and utilize the professional knowledge I have acquired over the past four years. I am a self motivated, ambitious young professional who has worked very hard to become an effective asset and team member to each organization which I have been a part of. Since my graduation with a BS Clinical Research, I have worked in a variety of positions including corporate CRO research (INC Research), direct clinical care (Nursing Assistant at UNC and Duke Hospitals), and most recently, Clinical Research on the site level with the Duke University Cardiothoracic Surgery Research Team. My previous team lead and research practice manager, included as references on my resume, will likely cite my ability and willingness to learn quickly, interact with subjects/patients in a personable manner, and develop productive working relationships with my team members. I pride myself on my work ethic and enjoy working around others that inspire that same dedication.
