Professor Waltraud Kriven – Personal Interview – Video


Professor Waltraud Kriven - Personal Interview
Waltraud M. Kriven received a PhD in 1976 in Physical and Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Adelaide in South Australia. The B.Sc. (Hons) and Baccalaureate degrees were in Physical and Inorganic Chemistry and Biochemistry, also from Adelaide University. Dr. Kriven spent one year as a Post Doctoral Teaching and Research Fellow in the Chemistry Dept. at the University of Western Ontario in Canada. She then spent three years (1977-1980) jointly at the University of California at Berkeley, and at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. There, Dr. Kriven conducted post-doctoral research in transmission electron microscopy of ceramics and was a Lecturer, teaching Phase Equilibria in the senior undergraduate Ceramics Program of the Dept. of Materials Science and Mineral Engineering. For almost four years (1980-1983) Dr. Kriven was a Visiting Scientist at the Max-Planck-Institute in Stuttgart, Germany. There she studied the mechanism of transformation toughening of composite zirconia-based ceramics by 1 MeV HVEM, while working in the electron microscopy group headed by Dr. M. Rühle. Since Feb 1984, Professor Kriven has been at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She is a Full Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, an Affiliate Professor of Mechanical Science and Engineering, and an Affiliate Professor of Bioengineering.From:UIUCMaterialsAdvViews:4 0ratingsTime:06:27More inScience Technology

Portsmouth Abbey School Dom Luke Childs Lecturer Fr. Nicanor Austriaco, OP – Video


Portsmouth Abbey School Dom Luke Childs Lecturer Fr. Nicanor Austriaco, OP
Portsmouth Abbey School was honored to welcome Rev. Nicanor Austriaco, OP, to deliver the Dom Luke Childs Lecture to the School community on October 15, 2012. Fr. Austriaco, who was also a guest speaker at Portsmouth Institute 2012, is a Catholic priest in the Order of Friars Preachers, also known as the Dominicans. Born in the Philippines, he completed his Bachelor #39;s of Science Degree in Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania in 1989. He then earned his Ph.D. in Biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology where he was a fellow of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. At MIT, Fr. Austriaco worked in the laboratory of Professor Leonard Guarente on the genetics of aging in the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. After completing his doctoral studies, he was a fellow of the International Human Frontier Science Program at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research at the University College London in the United Kingdom. In 1997, following a deeper conversion to the Lord, Fr. Austriaco entered the novitiate of the Order of Friars Preachers. He completed both his Pontifical Bachelor #39;s Degree in Sacred Theology and his Master #39;s of Divinity Degree at the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception at the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, DC, in 2003. He was ordained to the priesthood on May 21, 2004. In 2005, he earned his Pontifical License in Sacred Theology (STL) for a thesis in moral theology entitled, Life and Death from the Systems Perspective: A ...From:Portsmouth AbbeyViews:85 0ratingsTime:37:46More inEducation

Strategies for Directing the Biological Response to Biomaterial Surfaces by Design – Video


Strategies for Directing the Biological Response to Biomaterial Surfaces by Design
This presentation will consider how surface engineering approaches can be used as part of biomedical device design to provide active chemistries and micro-, meso- and nano-scale surface features on hard and soft biomaterials that can promote and support the types of cellular process required for tissue formation. In particular, the need to develop accessible, validated and cost-effective methods to facilitate these smart surfaces is addressed. Exemplar studies from past and current research activities will be used to show how targeted surface engineering can be used to guide the progression of cell response and how this may allow for translation to more effective implant performance.

Playing Pong using just your eyes – Video


Playing Pong using just your eyes
Millions of people suffering from Multiple Scleorosis, Parkinson #39;s, muscular dystrophy, spinal cord injuries or amputees could soon interact with their computers and surroundings using just their eyes thanks to a new device that costs just £43. Comprised of off-the-shelf materials, the new device, can work out exactly where a person is looking by tracking their eye movements, allowing them to control a cursor on a screen just like a normal computer mouse. The researchers demonstrated the device by getting students to play the computer game Pong using just their eyes.
