Cheminformatics tools and chemistry data underpinning mass spectrometry analy...US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure
Mass spectrometry analyses at the US-EPA, especially non-targeted analysis studies, are highly dependent on the cheminformatics efforts which have been underway within the agency for almost a decade. These research efforts have resulted in a rich data infrastructure based on the DSSTox database, data integration approaches based on a structure standardization approach to produce “MS-ready” structures, and a number of supporting data types to facilitate ranking of non-targeted analysis candidates. This presentation will provide an overview of all tools in development and the integrated nature of the applications based on the underlying chemistry data. This includes the development of the underlying chemistry database of >1.2 million chemical substances (DSSTox), approaches to structure standardization to facilitate structure-substance mapping, development of a spectral database of >150,000 spectra for >25,000 chemicals, a database of >3000 analytical methods, prediction models for LCMS amenability, and an application for the profiling of toxicity hazards for batches of chemical substances.

In recent years, the growth of scientific data and the increasing need for data sharing and collaboration in the field of environmental chemistry has led to the creation of various software and databases that facilitate research and development into the safety and toxicity of chemicals. The US-EPA Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure has been developing software and databases that serve the chemistry community for many years. This presentation will focus on several web-based software applications which have been developed at the USEPA and made available to the community. While the primary software application from the Center is the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard almost a dozen proof-of-concept applications have been built serving various capabilities. The publicly accessible Cheminformatics Modules (https://www.epa.gov/chemicalresearch/cheminformatics) provides access to six individual modules to allow for hazard comparison for sets of chemicals, structure-substructure-similarity searching, structure alerts and batch QSAR prediction of both physicochemical and toxicity endpoints. A number of other applications in development include a chemical transformations database (ChET) and a database of analytical methods and open mass spectral data (AMOS). Each of these depends on the underlying DSSTox chemicals database, a rich source of chemistry data for over 1.2 million chemical substances. I will provide an overview of all tools in development and the integrated nature of the applications based on the underlying chemistry data.

The Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure (CCTE) is part of the Office of Research and Development at the US Environmental Protection Agency. As part of its mission the center delivers access to chemicals related data via web-based freely accessible online Dashboards to disseminate data generated within the center as well as harvested and integrated from open databases around the world. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (available at https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) provides access to >1.2 million chemicals and associated data including experimental and predicted property data, in vivo hazard data, in vitro bioactivity data, exposure data, and various other data types. The curation of the chemicals dataset has included the development of over 400 segregated lists of chemicals that represent specific research areas of interest including disinfectant by-products, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), extractables and leachables, and chemicals of emerging concern. The chemicals collection, the associated data, the lists and searches for mass and formulae makes the Dashboard an ideal foundation technology to support our colleagues working in the field of mass spectrometry, especially in targeted and non-targeted analysis. This presentation will provide an overview of the Dashboard, its value to the community in terms of providing access to the integrated and highly curated data, and its utility to support researchers in the field of mass spectrometry. New proof-of-concept projects will also be introduced including the development of a cheminformatics enabled methods database.

Structure identification approaches using the EPA CompTox Chemicals Dashboard...US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure
High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and non-targeted analysis (NTA) are utilized to identify emerging contaminants and chemical signatures of interest detected in various media. At the US Environmental Protection Agency the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) is an open chemistry resource and web-based application containing data for ~900,000 substances and supports non-targeted and suspect screening analyses. Searching functionality includes identifier searches (e.g. systematic names, trade names and CAS Registry Numbers), mass and formula-based searches and prototype developments include combined substructure-mass/formula searches and searching experimental mass spectral data against predicted fragmentation spectra. A specific type of data mapping in the database uses “MS-Ready” structures, a way to process all registered substances to separate multi-component chemicals into their individual components, removal of stereochemical bonds and desalting and neutralization. This MS-Ready processing supports batch-searching using either mass or formulae to identify candidate chemicals and their mapped substances. A number of chemical lists (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard/chemical_lists) have also been developed to support the identification of chemicals related to agrochemistry, specifically pesticides (both active and inert constituents), insecticides and their metabolites and environmental breakdown products). This presentation will provide an overview of how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard supports mass spectrometry based structure identification and non-targeted analysis of chemicals in agrochemistry.

US-EPA Chemicals Dashboard – an integrated data hub for environmental scienceUS Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Computational Toxicology Program utilizes computational and data-driven approaches that integrate chemistry, exposure and biological data to help characterize potential risks from chemical exposure. The National Center for Computational Toxicology (NCCT) has measured, assembled and delivered an enormous quantity and diversity of data for the environmental sciences, including high-throughput in vitro screening data, in vivo and functional use data, exposure models and chemical databases with associated properties. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard website provides access to data associated with ~900,000 chemical substances. New data are added on an ongoing basis, including the registration of new and emerging chemicals, data extracted from the literature, chemicals studied in our labs, and data of interest to specific research projects at the EPA. Hazard and exposure data have been assembled from a large number of public databases and as a result the dashboard surfaces hundreds of thousands of data points. Other data includes experimental and predicted physicochemical property data, in vitro bioassay data and millions of chemical identifiers (names and CAS Registry Numbers) to facilitate searching. Other integrated modules include real-time physicochemical and toxicity endpoint prediction and an integrated search to PubMed.

Non-targeted analysis (NTA) uses high-resolution mass spectrometry to better understand the identity of a wide variety of chemicals present in environmental samples (and other matrices). However, data processing remains challenging due to the vast number of chemicals detected in samples, software and computational requirements of data processing, and inherent uncertainty in confidently identifying chemicals from candidate lists. Analysis of the resultant mass spectrometry information relies on cheminformatics to identify and rank chemicals and the US EPA has developed functionality within the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) to address challenges related to this analysis. These tools include the generation of “MS-Ready” structures to optimize database searching, retention time prediction for candidate reduction, consensus ranking using chemical metadata, and in silico MS/MS fragmentation prediction for spectral matching. Combining these tools into a comprehensive workflow improves certainty in candidate identification. This presentation will review how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard via its flexible search capabilities, rich data for ~875,000 chemical substances, and visualization approaches within this open chemistry resource provides a freely available software tool to support structure identification and NTA.

Researchers at EPA’s National Center for Computational Toxicology integrate advances in biology, chemistry, and computer science to examine the toxicity of chemicals and help prioritize chemicals for further research based on potential human health risks. The goal of this research program is to quickly evaluate thousands of chemicals, but at a much reduced cost and shorter time frame relative to traditional approaches. The data generated by the Center includes characterization of thousands of chemicals across hundreds of high-throughput screening assays, consumer use and production information, pharmacokinetic properties, literature data, physical-chemical properties as well as the predictive computational modeling of toxicity and exposure. We have developed a number of databases and applications to deliver the data to the public, academic community, industry stakeholders, and regulators. This presentation will provide an overview of our work to develop an architecture that integrates diverse large-scale data from the chemical and biological domains, our approaches to disseminate these data, and the delivery of models supporting predictive computational toxicology. In particular, this presentation will review our new CompTox Chemistry Dashboard and the developing software architecture.

High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and non-targeted analysis (NTA) are of increasing interest in chemical forensics for the identification of emerging contaminants and chemical signatures of interest. At the US Environmental Protection Agency, our research using HRMS for non-targeted and suspect screening analyses utilizes databases and cheminformatics approaches that are applicable to chemical forensics. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard is an open chemistry resource and web-based application containing data for ~900,000 substances. Basic functionality for searching through the data is provided through identifier searches, such as systematic name, trade names and CAS Registry Numbers. Advanced Search capabilities supporting mass spectrometry include mass and formula-based searches, combined substructure-mass searches and searching experimental mass spectral data against predicted fragmentation spectra. A specific type of data mapping in the underpinning database, using “MS-Ready” structures, has proven to be a valuable approach for structure identification that links structures that can be identified via HRMS with related substances in the form of salts, and other multi-component mixtures that are available in commerce. These MS-Ready structures have been used as an input set for computational MS-fragmentation to provide a database against which to search experimental data for spectral matching. This presentation will provide an overview of how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard supports structure identification and non-targeted analysis in chemical forensics.

Analytical methods can vary in nature from detailed regulatory methods to more summary in nature. Regulatory method documents can include details of analytes which can be studied, supported matrices, reagents, methodological details, statistical performance, interlaboratory validation and other details. Summary methods provide a general overview of reagents, instrumentation and commonly a short list of analytes. Regulatory bodies including the US Environmental Protection Agency (US-EPA), US Geological Survey (USGS), US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and others provide detailed analytical methods and collections of summary methods from the agrochemical industry, such as the US-EPA Environmental Chemistry Methods (https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-analytical-methods/environmental-chemistry-methods-ecm). Instrument vendors also provide access to many hundreds of application notes which can be considered as summary methods. We have developed a cheminformatically enabled database of methods whereby chemicals have been extracted from the methods, with the identifiers (names and/or chemical abstracts registry numbers) mapped to chemical structures. The resulting database of almost 3000 methods can be searched by chemical name, CASRN, structure and similarity of chemical structure. The resulting database has been integrated into a web-based application and includes integration to public domain mass spectral data and filtering of the methods based on analyte, chemical class, method source and other related metadata.

The US EPA’s National Center for Computational Toxicology (NCCT) has been both measuring and aggregating data to support our research efforts for over a decade. We have delivered these data via a number of publicly accessible websites, so-called dashboards, to provide transparent access to the outputs of the center. Since the inception of our research, software projects technologies have changed dramatically, as have the expectations regarding the methods by which to access data. Our informatics efforts provide access to millions of dollars of high-throughput screening data available in open, downloadable formats, via web services and through a rich web interface. Similarly, we provide access to experimental and predicted data associated with ~760,000 substances to serve the environmental chemistry community, and open source code for predictive models. This presentation will provide an overview of the efforts of NCCT to provide transparent access to our research and data via our publications (and accompanying supplementary data), via our Open Data policies, and through our databases, software tools and web services.

Incorporating new technologies and High Throughput Screening in the design an...US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure
Tens of thousands of chemicals are currently in commerce, and hundreds more are introduced every year. Because current chemical testing is resource intensive, only a small fraction of chemicals have been adequately evaluated for potential human health effects. New technologies and computational tools have shown promise for closing this knowledge gap. In the U.S. EPA’s ToxCast effort, the use of ~700 high-throughput in vitro assays has broadly characterized the biological activity and potential mechanisms of ~1,800 chemicals. Coupling the high-throughput in vitro assays with additional in vitro pharmacokinetic assays and in vitro-to-in vivo extrapolation modeling allows conversion of in vitro bioactive concentrations to estimates to an administered dose (mg/kg/day). High throughput exposure models are generating exposure estimates based on key aspects of chemical production, fate, transport, and personal use. The path for incorporating new approach methods and technologies for prioritization and assessment of chemical alternatives poses multiple scientific challenges. These challenges include sufficient coverage of toxicological mechanisms to meaningfully interpret negative test results, development of increasingly relevant test systems, computational modeling to integrate experimental data, characterizing uncertainty, and efficient validation of the test systems and computational models. The presentation will cover progress at the U.S. EPA in the development and application of these technologies and approaches in evaluating alternatives and systematically addressing each of these challenges.

High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and non-targeted analysis (NTA) are advancing the identification of emerging contaminants in environmental matrices, improving the means by which exposure analyses can be conducted. However, confidence in structure identification of unknowns in NTA presents challenges to analytical chemists. Structure identification requires integration of complementary data types such as reference databases (either commercial or open databases), fragmentation prediction tools, and retention time prediction models. One goal of our research is to optimize and implement structure identification functionality within the US EPA’s CompTox Chemicals Dashboard, an open chemistry resource and web application containing data for ~900,000 substances. Database searching using mass or formula-based inputs has been optimized for structure identification using “MS-Ready Structures”: de-salted, stripped of stereochemistry, and mixture separated to replicate the form of a chemical observed via HRMS. Functionality to conduct batch searching of molecular formulae and monoisotopic masses has also been implemented. While the increasing number of free online databases are of value to support chemical structure verification and elucidation there are known issues regarding data quality and careful data curation is a very necessary part of the development of these resources. This presentation will provide an overview of our latest enhancements to the dashboard to support mass spectrometry, incorporation of specific datasets (i.e. to support breath research and household dust analysis) and the value of metadata and predicted fragmentation spectral matching to support structure identification.

Researchers at EPA’s National Center for Computational Toxicology integrate advances in biology, chemistry, and computer science to examine the toxicity of chemicals and help prioritize chemicals for further research based on potential human health risks. The goal of this research program is to quickly evaluate thousands of chemicals, but at a much reduced cost and shorter time frame relative to traditional approaches. The data generated by the Center includes characterization of thousands of chemicals across hundreds of high-throughput screening assays, consumer use and production information, pharmacokinetic properties, literature data, physical-chemical properties as well as the predictive computational modeling of toxicity and exposure. We have developed a number of databases and applications to deliver the data to the public, academic community, industry stakeholders, and regulators. This presentation will provide an overview of our work to develop an architecture that integrates diverse large-scale data from the chemical and biological domains, our approaches to disseminate these data, and the delivery of models supporting predictive computational toxicology.

Applications of the US EPA’s CompTox Chemistry Dashboard to support structure...US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure
High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and non-targeted analysis (NTA) are of increasing interest in chemical forensics for the identification of emerging contaminants and chemical signatures of interest. At the US Environmental Protection Agency, our research using HRMS for non-targeted and suspect screening analyses utilizes databases and cheminformatics approaches that are applicable to chemical forensics. The CompTox Chemistry Dashboard is an open chemistry resource and web-based application containing data for ~760,000 substances. Basic functionality for searching through the data is provided through identifier searches, such as systematic name, trade names and CAS Registry Numbers. Advanced Search capabilities supporting mass spectrometry include mass and formula-based searches, combined substructure-mass searches and searching experimental mass spectral data against predicted fragmentation spectra. A specific type of data mapping in the underpinning database, using “MS-Ready” structures, has proven to be a valuable approach for structure identification that links structures that can be identified via HRMS with related substances in the form of salts, and other multi-component mixtures that are available in commerce. This presentation will provide an overview of the CompTox Chemistry Dashboard and demonstrate its utility for supporting structure identification and NTA in chemical forensics.

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

The Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure (CCTE) is part of the Office of Research and Development at the US Environmental Protection Agency. As part of its mission the center delivers access to chemicals related data via web-based freely accessible online Dashboards to disseminate data generated within the center as well as harvested and integrated from open databases around the world. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (available at https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) provides access to >1.2 million chemicals and associated data including experimental and predicted property data, in vivo hazard data, in vitro bioactivity data, exposure data, and various other data types. The curation of the chemicals dataset has included the development of over 400 segregated lists of chemicals that represent specific research areas of interest including disinfectant by-products, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), extractables and leachables, and chemicals of emerging concern. The chemicals collection, the associated data, the lists and searches for mass and formulae makes the Dashboard an ideal foundation technology to support our colleagues working in the field of mass spectrometry, especially in targeted and non-targeted analysis. This presentation will provide an overview of the Dashboard, its value to the community in terms of providing access to the integrated and highly curated data, and its utility to support researchers in the field of mass spectrometry. New proof-of-concept projects will also be introduced including the development of a cheminformatics enabled methods database.

High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and non-targeted analysis (NTA) are utilized to identify emerging contaminants and chemical signatures of interest detected in various media. At the US Environmental Protection Agency the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) is an open chemistry resource and web-based application containing data for ~900,000 substances and supports non-targeted and suspect screening analyses. Searching functionality includes identifier searches (e.g. systematic names, trade names and CAS Registry Numbers), mass and formula-based searches and prototype developments include combined substructure-mass/formula searches and searching experimental mass spectral data against predicted fragmentation spectra. A specific type of data mapping in the database uses “MS-Ready” structures, a way to process all registered substances to separate multi-component chemicals into their individual components, removal of stereochemical bonds and desalting and neutralization. This MS-Ready processing supports batch-searching using either mass or formulae to identify candidate chemicals and their mapped substances. A number of chemical lists (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard/chemical_lists) have also been developed to support the identification of chemicals related to agrochemistry, specifically pesticides (both active and inert constituents), insecticides and their metabolites and environmental breakdown products). This presentation will provide an overview of how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard supports mass spectrometry based structure identification and non-targeted analysis of chemicals in agrochemistry.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Computational Toxicology Program utilizes computational and data-driven approaches that integrate chemistry, exposure and biological data to help characterize potential risks from chemical exposure. The National Center for Computational Toxicology (NCCT) has measured, assembled and delivered an enormous quantity and diversity of data for the environmental sciences, including high-throughput in vitro screening data, in vivo and functional use data, exposure models and chemical databases with associated properties. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard website provides access to data associated with ~900,000 chemical substances. New data are added on an ongoing basis, including the registration of new and emerging chemicals, data extracted from the literature, chemicals studied in our labs, and data of interest to specific research projects at the EPA. Hazard and exposure data have been assembled from a large number of public databases and as a result the dashboard surfaces hundreds of thousands of data points. Other data includes experimental and predicted physicochemical property data, in vitro bioassay data and millions of chemical identifiers (names and CAS Registry Numbers) to facilitate searching.

Non-targeted analysis (NTA) uses high-resolution mass spectrometry to better understand the identity of a wide variety of chemicals present in environmental samples (and other matrices). However, data processing remains challenging due to the vast number of chemicals detected in samples, software and computational requirements of data processing, and inherent uncertainty in confidently identifying chemicals from candidate lists. Analysis of the resultant mass spectrometry information relies on cheminformatics to identify and rank chemicals and the US EPA has developed functionality within the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) to address challenges related to this analysis. These tools include the generation of “MS-Ready” structures to optimize database searching, retention time prediction for candidate reduction, consensus ranking using chemical metadata, and in silico MS/MS fragmentation prediction for spectral matching. Combining these tools into a comprehensive workflow improves certainty in candidate identification. This presentation will review how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard via its flexible search capabilities, rich data for ~875,000 chemical substances, and visualization approaches within this open chemistry resource provides a freely available software tool to support structure identification and NTA.

Analytical methods can vary in nature from detailed regulatory methods to more summary in nature. Regulatory method documents can include details of analytes which can be studied, supported matrices, reagents, methodological details, statistical performance, interlaboratory validation and other details. Summary methods provide a general overview of reagents, instrumentation and commonly a short list of analytes. Regulatory bodies including the US Environmental Protection Agency (US-EPA), US Geological Survey (USGS), US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and others provide detailed analytical methods and collections of summary methods from the agrochemical industry, such as the US-EPA Environmental Chemistry Methods (https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-analytical-methods/environmental-chemistry-methods-ecm). Instrument vendors also provide access to many hundreds of application notes which can be considered as summary methods. We have developed a cheminformatically enabled database of methods whereby chemicals have been extracted from the methods, with the identifiers (names and/or chemical abstracts registry numbers) mapped to chemical structures. The resulting database of almost 3000 methods can be searched by chemical name, CASRN, structure and similarity of chemical structure. The resulting database has been integrated into a web-based application and includes integration to public domain mass spectral data and filtering of the methods based on analyte, chemical class, method source and other related metadata.

Incorporating new technologies and High Throughput Screening in the design an...US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure
Tens of thousands of chemicals are currently in commerce, and hundreds more are introduced every year. Because current chemical testing is resource intensive, only a small fraction of chemicals have been adequately evaluated for potential human health effects. New technologies and computational tools have shown promise for closing this knowledge gap. In the U.S. EPA’s ToxCast effort, the use of ~700 high-throughput in vitro assays has broadly characterized the biological activity and potential mechanisms of ~1,800 chemicals. Coupling the high-throughput in vitro assays with additional in vitro pharmacokinetic assays and in vitro-to-in vivo extrapolation modeling allows conversion of in vitro bioactive concentrations to estimates to an administered dose (mg/kg/day). High throughput exposure models are generating exposure estimates based on key aspects of chemical production, fate, transport, and personal use. The path for incorporating new approach methods and technologies for prioritization and assessment of chemical alternatives poses multiple scientific challenges. These challenges include sufficient coverage of toxicological mechanisms to meaningfully interpret negative test results, development of increasingly relevant test systems, computational modeling to integrate experimental data, characterizing uncertainty, and efficient validation of the test systems and computational models.

I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlands
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
