This document summarizes three presentations on microalgae biotechnology given at a recent conference.
The first presentation discussed using microalgae as a sustainable source for biofuels and highlighted challenges in improving productivity and lowering costs. The second discussed developing new genetic tools to improve traits of microalgae for biotechnology applications. The third discussed using a gene co-expression network to study transcription factors related to metabolism in the model microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Developing genetic engineering and systems biology approaches were highlighted as essential to realizing the full potential of microalgae as sources of renewable resources and products.
Sophie Grillet is a British artist currently residing in Detroit who is organizing an art show called "Start Here" to inspire positive change. The goal of the show is to lift people's moods by encouraging them to start making improvements in their own lives and communities instead of feeling overwhelmed by larger issues. The free show will feature live painting, music, poetry, and dance performances. Grillet hopes to shift people's mindsets through art and start a conversation about achieving peace of mind through small actions.
Dose aims to improve lives affected by type 2 diabetes by offering personalized health services and non-invasive blood glucose measurements. It plans to acquire licenses, develop prototypes, and launch its product in the UK diabetes market, which it forecasts could generate sales of £9-22.5 million annually by 2021. Financial projections estimate Dose could be valued at £56.4 million based on anticipated revenue growth and profitability.
Google Glass is a research project by Google to develop a head-mounted display (HMD). The goal is to create a device that can display information to the user hands-free, similar to current smartphone capabilities. Google Glass uses technologies like wearable computing, eye tap displays, 4G networks, Android operating system, and incorporates a video display, camera, speaker, button, and microphone. It allows users to take photos and videos, send messages, search the internet, and use apps like Google Translate and Maps through voice commands. While innovative, some privacy and safety concerns remain over the technology.
Cómo desarrollar una cultura ágil y creativa agile coaching arCarolina Gorosito
Este documento describe cómo desarrollar una cultura ágil y creativa en una organización. Explica que la cultura se compone de prácticas, principios, valores, comportamientos y creencias compartidos por un grupo. Luego, detalla algunas herramientas como design thinking, aprendizaje rápido y desarrollo basado en hipótesis que pueden usarse para experimentar e impulsar un cambio cultural a través de agentes de cambio y comunidades de práctica. Finalmente, invita a imaginar la cultura ideal.

Debian Linux on Zynq (Xilinx ARM-SoC FPGA) Setup Flow (Vivado 2015.4)Shinya Takamaeda-Y
The document describes the process to set up Debian Linux on a Zynq FPGA board using a Zybo board as a reference platform. The key steps include:
1. Developing the hardware design in Vivado, including adding a CPU, GPIO for LEDs and switches, and generating a bitstream;
2. Compiling U-boot and the Linux kernel, as well as creating a device tree and root filesystem;
3. Setting up an SD card and booting the system from the SD card.
In this deck, the Radio Free HPC team reviews the results from SC16 Student Cluster Competition.

Threats and stresses to our 21st century world come in all shapes and sizes, just as they have since the beginning of human existence. But what distinguishes today’s threats from those of the past is the escalating rate at which they are occurring, without mind for geography or man-made borders. Issues once identified and analyzed individually – our environment, the economy, and social challenges – are now inextricably interlinked.
Despite all we know about resilience and the large body of research and literature that has been written on the subject – too few societies, organizations, and systems get resilience right.
In our new publication, titled Rebound: Building a More Resilient World, we asked leaders from various disciplines to share their lessons of what resilience means and what it requires of us. Through the lens of their own experiences, we can begin to explore some of the ways we can help prepare for, withstand and emerge stronger from the acute shocks and chronic stresses of the 21st century.
This document provides instructions for a classroom game called "Beat the Clock" where students earn more points for correctly guessing a keyword within 12 seconds. The teacher selects a keyword and picture to insert into a slide. Two point values are layered so the higher value is revealed if guessed on time, and the lower value appears if time runs out. The teacher clicks enter to start the clock and students raise hands to guess. Clicking enter or the outta time button reveals the answer and advances the slide.
