The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed an online calculator called the Vapor Intrusion Screening Level (VISL) Calculator. The calculator provides screening level concentrations for groundwater, soil gas, and indoor air for certain chemicals to help risk assessors evaluate vapor intrusion risks. It calculates screening levels for groundwater and soil gas using conservative attenuation factors from EPA's draft vapor intrusion guidance document. The VISL Calculator can also estimate indoor air concentrations from user-entered soil gas and groundwater data using default attenuation factors. It will provide risk values and be a useful tool for citizens, risk assessors, and risk managers.

Investigation of fecal contamination cherry
This document summarizes a study investigating fecal contamination in the Little River Basin in Kentucky from 2013-2014. Fecal indicator bacteria (E. coli) and microbial source tracking (MST) using qPCR were used to identify sources and locations of contamination. The highest levels of E. coli in water samples and detections of human, mixed, and canine sources by MST came from site NF02 at the mouth of the North Fork. The greatest levels of bovine contamination were found in samples from the headwaters of the South Fork at site SF02. While some sources were identified, more data is needed to determine conclusively whether the North Fork or South Fork is contributing more overall fecal contamination to the basin.
Human Genetics & Big Data [sans Ethics]
The document discusses several topics related to biomedical research and human genetics. It notes that the goals of therapeutics, diagnostics, and prognostics are improving fitness. It also discusses themes of eugenics and determinism, media technology and privacy, trends in DNA sequencing costs and capacity, and challenges around data analysis and clinical applications of large-scale human genetics.

USING E-INFRASTRUCTURES FOR BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION - Module 3
An e-Infrastructure is a distributed network of service nodes, residing on multiple sites and managed by one or more organizations. e-Infrastructures allow scientists residing at distant places to collaborate. They offer a multiplicity of facilities as-a-service, supporting data sharing and usage at different levels of abstraction, e.g. data transfer, data harmonization, data processing workflows etc. e-Infrastructures are gaining an important place in the field of biodiversity conservation. Their computational capabilities help scientists to reuse models, obtain results in shorter time and share these results with other colleagues. They are also used to access several and heterogeneous biodiversity catalogues.
In this course, the D4Science e-Infrastructure will be used to conduct experiments in the field of biodiversity conservation. D4Science hosts models and contributions by several international organizations involved in the biodiversity conservation field. The course will give students an overview of the models, the practices and the methods that large international organizations like FAO and UNESCO apply by means of D4Science. At the same time, the course will introduce students to the basic concepts under e-Infrastructures, Virtual Research Environments, data sharing and experiments reproducibility.

Tata Steel
Tata Steel is India's largest steel company, employing over 300,000 people, including 83,000 in its core steel business. In the 1990s, liberalization of the Indian economy prompted Tata to rethink its strategic management. Tata's strategy includes narrowing its business units by merging and acquiring related businesses, expanding into industries relevant to steel production to add value, and using models like the Tata Business Excellence Model and Porter's value chain to improve. Tata Steel's purpose is to add economic value and improve life for employees and communities. It tailors its strategies for Europe, Southeast Asia and India based on local conditions but pursuing the overall goal.

Low resource deep learning to detect waste intensity in the river flow
This document summarizes a study that used the YOLO v3 deep learning algorithm to detect waste in river flows and calculate waste intensity. Researchers collected 340 images of waste in rivers to use as a training dataset for a YOLO v3 model. The model was tested on videos of river flows and achieved 98.74% confidence in detecting waste objects. The resulting application can detect a variety of waste sizes, from small food wrappers to large objects, and count the number of waste items intersecting a drawn reference line in each video frame. This waste detection and counting system aims to help monitor waste in rivers and predict when river cleaning is needed.

Satellite-based drought monitoring in Kenya in an operational setting
The document discusses satellite-based drought monitoring in Kenya in an operational setting. It notes that the traditional reaction to drought has been crisis management rather than preventative risk management. It also discusses the importance of contingency funds to facilitate timely response to drought indicated by early warning systems. The approach presented uses MODIS satellite data to generate near-real time vegetation condition indices and drought indicators at different spatial and temporal scales. Uncertainties are also modeled during processing to account for data quality issues. The system provides consistent drought monitoring products to support decision making.

Digital Biology, by Ruediger Trojok
Digital Biology is the computer programming of bioassays using digital microfluidic biochips based on electrowetting on dielectric technology. Digital Biology allows for wide scale automation of procedures in synthetic biology by improving efficiency between 1000 to 100000 fold compared to manual laboratory work, for the first time enabling wide scale rapid prototyping for the iterative creation of biological systems. To successfully decentralize the Digital Biology technology, we want to develop Bioflux Technology—a platform that will automate the synthetic biology flow with great medical and commercial potential. Bioflux Technology will be a combination of a software suite for biologists to plan experiments, a microfluidic device, electronics hardware to run the experiments and the required wetware (biological reagents) to perform a wide range of standardized bioassays used in synthetic biology.
About the speaker:
Ruediger Trojok is a Diplom Biologist, that invented a novel contraceptive method based on genetically altered lactic acid bacteria. He worked as a freelance consultant for the office for Technology Assessment by the German Parliament on biohacking and synthetic biology. Since 2014 he works for the Institute for Technology Assessment and Systems Analysis at the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology on the EU program Synenergene. He is currently establishing a citizen science biolab in Berlin, and is supporting open-source biotechnology projects related to public life, politics and the arts.
