The increased availability of biomedical data, particularly in the public domain, offers the opportunity to better understand human health and to develop effective therapeutics for a wide range of unmet medical needs. However, data scientists remain stymied by the fact that data remain hard to find and to productively reuse because data and their metadata i) are wholly inaccessible, ii) are in non-standard or incompatible representations, iii) do not conform to community standards, and iv) have unclear or highly restricted terms and conditions that preclude legitimate reuse. These limitations require a rethink on data can be made machine and AI-ready - the key motivation behind the FAIR Guiding Principles. Concurrently, while recent efforts have explored the use of deep learning to fuse disparate data into predictive models for a wide range of biomedical applications, these models often fail even when the correct answer is already known, and fail to explain individual predictions in terms that data scientists can appreciate. These limitations suggest that new methods to produce practical artificial intelligence are still needed.
In this talk, I will discuss our work in (1) building an integrative knowledge infrastructure to prepare FAIR and "AI-ready" data and services along with (2) neurosymbolic AI methods to improve the quality of predictions and to generate plausible explanations. Attention is given to standards, platforms, and methods to wrangle knowledge into simple, but effective semantic and latent representations, and to make these available into standards-compliant and discoverable interfaces that can be used in model building, validation, and explanation. Our work, and those of others in the field, creates a baseline for building trustworthy and easy to deploy AI models in biomedicine.

(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.
2. 1. The Car Heater
We all owe our thanks to Margaret A Wilcox
who invented the car heater in 1893.
(Margaret also invented a combined clothes
and dishwasher)
3. 2 Monopoly
This popular board game was designed by Elizabeth Magie in
1904, originally called the Landlord’s Game.
The purpose of this game was to expose the injustices of
unchecked capitalism.
Her game was ripped off by Charles Darrow who sold it to Parker
Brother’s 30 years later.
However Parker Brothers later paid Elizabeth $500 for her game.
Gee Thanks

patented design is still used
today!
Style ice cream maker
10. 9. The Computer Algorithm
Ada Lovelace is essentially the first computer
programmer due to her work with Charles Babbage
at the University of London in 1842. In fact her
notes was an essential key to helping Alan Turing’s
work on the first modern computers in the 1940’s.
11. 10. Telecommunications Technology
Some of the Telecommunication Technology
developed by Dr. Shirley Jackson include
portable fax, touch tone telephone, solar
cells, fibre optic cables, and the technology
behind caller ID and call waiting, in 1973
12. 11. The Dishwasher
The Dishwasher was invented by Josephine Cochrane in 1887. Before
her time, she even marketed her machine to hotel owners and even
opened her own factory without the help of a man!
13. 12. Wireless Transmission Technology
Hedy Lamarr, a world famous film star, invented a secret
communications system during World War II for radio-
controlling torpedoes, in 1941 This Technology also paved
the way for everything from Wi-Fi to GPS.
14. 13. Closed-Circuit Television Security (CCTV)
Marie Van Brittan Brown invented CCTV because
of the slow response of police officers in 1969 to
help people ensure their own security. This
invention influenced modern CCTV systems used
for home security and police work today.
15. 14. The Modern Paper Bag
Margaret Knight invented a machine that
makes square bottomed paper bags in 1871.
She almost didn’t get credit when Charles
Anan tried to steal her work claiming that it
wasn’t possible for a woman to create this
brilliant invention. (Margaret also invented
a safety device for cotton mills when she
was 12… that invention is still being used
today.)
16. 15. Central Heating
Although Alice Parker’s invention in
1919 of a gas powered central heater
was never manufactured.
Her idea was the first that allowed for
using natural gas to heat a home,
inspiring the central heating systems
used today.

and used to make bulletproof vests was invented in 1965
by Stephanie Kwolek.
18. 17. Computer Software
Dr. Grace Murray Hopper was a computer scientist that
invented COBOL which is the first user-friendly business
computer software system in the 1940’s. She was also
a rear admiral in the U..S. navy and the first person to
use the term “bug” in reference to a glitch in a
computer system when she literally found a bug (moth)
causing problems with her computer.
19. Jane Peyton, Historiadora da cerveja 18. Beer
Oh, what's that, bro? You're just enjoying a bottle of delicious, super-manly
beer? Guess what! Beer is totally a girl's drink. Beer historian Jane Peyton
claims that ancient Mesopotamian women were the first to develop, sell,
and even drink beer. While it may be hard to pin down exactly who,
thousands of years ago, "invented" the beer we know and love today, it's
safe to say that ancient women all over the world were sure as hell
fermenting something. So next time you raise a glass, make a toast to
Ninkasi, the Sumerian goddess of brewing and beer!
