The document describes the human immune system and how it protects the body from pathogens like viruses and bacteria. It discusses both the innate immune response, which provides immediate protection through physical barriers and internal defenses like phagocytes, and the acquired immune response, which adapts over time to improve recognition and response. The acquired response results in immunological memory that allows faster responses upon reexposure to a pathogen. Key components of the immune system include white blood cells, antibodies, antigens, and the development of active immunity through vaccination or prior exposure.

In recent decades, the federal government has greatly expanded its use of contractors to perform services, and now purchases more than $200 billion in services every year. The government increasingly turns to contractors to accomplish its programmatic goals, and contractor personnel are now performing tasks that in the past had been performed by government employees.
While an extensive array of ethics statutes and rules regulate government employees, only a few of these restrictions apply to contractor personnel. The personal conflicts of interest of contractor personnel are largely unregulated.
This presentation describes the rise in outsourcing and outlines several recent developments recommending and imposing conflict of interest standards on some contractor personnel.

The immune system has evolved to protect the host from a universe of pathogenic microbes that are themselves constantly evolving. The immune system also helps the host eliminate toxic or allergenic substances that enter our body. It is a host defence system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease. To function properly, an immune system must detect a wide variety of agents, known as pathogens, from viruses to parasitic worms, and distinguish them from the organism's own healthy tissue. The host uses both innate and adaptive mechanisms to detect and eliminate pathogenic foreign bodies. Both of these mechanisms include self-nonself discrimination.
The main parts of the immune system are:
• White Blood Cells
• Antibodies
• Complement System
• Lymphatic System
• Spleen
• Bone Marrow
• Thymus.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Designing Great Products: The Power of Design and Leadership by Chief Designe...
Life sciences lesson2
1.
2. An immune system is a system of
biological structures and
processes within an organism
that protects against disease.
In order to function properly, an immune
system must detect a wide variety of
agents, from viruses to parasitic worms,
and distinguish them from the organism's
own healthy tissue.
3. These agents are referred to as
pathogens – an organism or substance
that could cause a disease.
Pathogens can rapidly evolve and
adapt to avoid detection and
destruction by the immune system.
As a result, multiple defence
mechanisms have also evolved to
recognize and neutralize pathogens.
4. Physical barriers prevent pathogens
such as bacteria and viruses from
entering the organism.
If a pathogen breaches these barriers,
the innate immune system provides an
immediate, but non-specific response.
Innate immune systems are found in all
plants and animals.
5. If pathogens successfully evade the innate
response, vertebrates possess a second layer
of protection, the acquired immune system,
which is activated by the innate response.
Here, the immune system adapts its response
during an infection to improve its recognition of
the pathogen.
This improved response is then retained after
the pathogen has been eliminated, in the form
of an immunological memory,
and allows the acquired immune system to
mount faster and stronger attacks each time
this pathogen is encountered.
6.
7. Innate immune responses are active
immediately upon infection and are the
same whether or not the pathogen has
been encountered previously.
It includes barrier defenses
and internal defenses
8. Includes:
the skin
Mucus membranes of digestive-,
respiratory- urinary and
reproductive tract
oBody secretions: mucus, saliva
(lysozymes), tears, oil gland
secretions, acid in stomach,
sweat.
9. Some cells in mucus membrane produce
mucus.
Mucus is a viscous fluid that enhances
defences – trapping microbes and other
foreign particles
10. In the trachea, ciliated epithelial cells
sweep mucus and the trapped microbes
upwards, helping to prevent infection of
the lungs.
11. Body secretions create an environment
that in unfavourable for microbes.
Lysozymes in saliva, mucous secretions,
and tears destroy susceptible bacteria as
they enter the respiratory tract or
openings around eyes.
Acid in stomach kill bacteria
Oils and sweat give human skin a pH
between 3-5, which is acidic enough to
prevent the growth of microorganisms.
12. If the barrier defences are damaged
and pathogens do enter the body of an
organism, a second line of defence will
be activated.
This defence system is the internal
defence system and is more sensitive
and includes: phagocytosis and
inflammation.
13. Process by which certain living cells
called phagocytes ingest or engulf other
cells or particles.
The phagocyte may be a one-celled
organism, such as an amoeba, or one of
the body cells, such as a leukocyte
(white blood cell).
In higher animals phagocytosis is chiefly
a defensive reaction against infection
and invasion of the body
14. › Neutrophils engulf and destroy
microbes
› Macrophages are part of the
lymphatic system and are found
throughout the body
› Eosinophils discharge
destructive enzymes
› Dendritic cells stimulate
development of acquired
immunity
15.
16. When injured or infected by pathogens,
signalling molecules are released,
One example of a signalling molecules is
histamine – stored in mast cells.
These molecules trigger the blood
vessels to dilate and become more
permeable
17. This increase local blood supply and
allow more phagocytes and
antimicrobial proteins to enter tissues
Pus, a fluid rich in white blood cells,
dead microbes, and cell debris,
accumulates at the site of inflammation
Fever is a systemic inflammatory
response triggered by pyrogens released
by macrophages, and toxins from
pathogens
18. Acquired immunity is a specific immune
response system through which the
body specifically detects and destroys
particular substances.
This immunity protects us against
infectious diseases as the body has
learnt to recognize foreign substances.
It produces a specific reaction to each
infectious agent, eradicating that agent
from the body.
19. This ability to recognize a pathogen that has
previously elicited an immune response is
the basis for acquiring immunity to specific
diseases.
Hence, we suffer from many diseases, such
as chicken pox, measles etc. only once.
Thus we can summarize: Acquired immunity
involves 2 main activities:
› Destruction of the invaders
› Memory of this response
20. Special leucocytes, called the
lymphocytes are released from the bone
marrow.
Some reach the Thymus gland and
mature to form T-lymphocytes (T-cells)
Some become B-lymphocytes (B-cells)
and is present in the bone marrow and
lymph no
21. Active immunity occurs when a person
has already been exposed to antigens
(from pathogens)
And develops a secondary response
against specific pathogens.
People receive vaccinations to develop
a primary response, and then if they get
the pathogens later, active immunity
helps to fight them off.
22. Antigens are foreign molecules, found on
the surface of pathogens, each pathogen
has a specific antigen.
The immunity system has countless amounts
of B-Lymphocytes.
Each B-lymphocyte is able to recognize a
specific antigen.
The B-lymphocytes then produce
antibodies that will bond to the antigens.
This will neutralize or destroy the pathogen
23. Antibiotics are also known as anti-
bacterials.
They are drugs used to treat infections
caused by bacteria.
The first antibiotic was penicillin.
24. Although there are a number of different
types of antibiotic they all work in one of
two ways:
› A bactericidal antibiotic kills the
bacteria. Penicillin is a bactericidal. A
bactericidal usually either interferes
with the formation of the bacterium's
cell wall or its cell contents.
› A bacteriostatic stops bacteria from
multiplying.
