Description: These three-dimensional models of the human mandible and adjoining teeth were primarily built to perform biomechanical studies, more specifically, to predict bone remodeling at the alveolar part of the mandible. Such digital anatomical models contain a resourceful amount of information for medical device design and can also be used for 3-D visualization and rapid prototyping purposes, in particular, within orthodontics

The spring 2013 hackNY student hackathon brought in hundreds of students to Columbia University's Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science April 6-7 for 24 hours of creative collaborative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
NYC Startups, selected by a student organizing committee, presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, after which students formed groups to work through the night implementing their own ideas for fresh hacks built on top of these APIs.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel featuring members of the NYC startup community, which selected the final winning teams.
Since April 2010, hackNY hosts student hackathons one each semester, as well as the hackNY Fellows program, a structured internship which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment: a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup in NYC.
To find out what you missed at the spring 2013 hackNY student hackathon please do see our HackerLeague event page and blog post announcing the winners.
Special thanks to our spring 2013 hackNY student hackathon judges! And congratulations to the winners of the spring 2013 hackNY student hackathon!

Description: The cervical spine has four different basic movements: flexion, extension, lateral bending and axial rotation. The flexion-extension movement correspond to the "yes" movement and the axial rotation to the "no" movement. These movements were simulated by applying equivalent moments. The image shows that the developed finite element model recreates the basic movements of the correspondent anatomical structure

"Biology, Translational Pharmacology & Toxicology Computation" Online Course at Udemy
www.udemy.com/biology-translational-pharmacology-toxicolo...
Description
Compared with conventional reductionist track that tries to demonstrate complicated ailments by examining human gene, Systems Biology is described by the vision that the implied mechanism of complicated ailments is likely to become the dysregulation of diverse interconnected cellular paths.
With the development of technology and science, Translational Pharmacology has developed as a modern branch to face today’s healthcare requirement and is believed as an expansion of clinical pharmacology.
Pharmacogenetics survey for the target of medication improvement has, in the past, concentrated almost completely on the impact of differences in human genes for giving rise to a particular adverse effect.
Computational Toxicology is actually a vibrant and quickly improving branch that combines data and information from a diversity of sources to improve mathematical and computer-founded models to better recognize and foresee adverse health impacts caused via chemicals, like pharmaceuticals and environmental pollutants.
A perfect ontology should authorize the mapping of datum at different standards of hierarchy. Computational designing of biological frameworks can accomplish combination along various dimensions.
In Summary, Bricolage is actually a methodological procedure that, in case of a public situation, alters and develops not only while but for the sake of the course activity. To do this demands a track of (Biology-Transnational Pharmacology-Toxicology Computation) as an interdisciplinarity approach where habitual disciplinary borders are not merely crossed but the analytical scopes of these diverse disciplines are actively used.
Who this course is for:
People from whole of the world, who have an interest in the following approaches: 1) Biology, 2) Translational Pharmacology, 3) Computational Toxicology, 4) Pharmacogenetics, 5) Computational Modeling Tactics, 6) The Art of Literature, 7) Chemical Biology, 8) Biochemistry, 9) Cheminformatics, 10) Bioinformatics, and 11) Biomedicine. And this course contains thirty-nine resource.

Description: A probable etiology of the hip osteoarthritis is the femoro-acetabular impingement, i.e., an abnormal morphological relation between the femoral head and the acetabular cavity that leads to the chronic injury of the most peripheral regions of the joint. The “Cam” type impingement is due to the presence of a non-spherical portion of the femoral head. This asphericity exerts an excessive pressure on the acetabular cartilage during flexural movements and/or internal rotations. Top image: Radial magnetic resonance arthography (rMRA) image with the articular structures segmented and the indication of the centre of rotation of the femoral head and the axes of the anatomical neck. Bottom image: 2-D quadrilateral mesh of the geometric model extracted from the rMRA image, suitable to evaluate the order of magnitude of the pressures at the contact zone of the femoral head as well as the stresses at the cartilages as a result of the abnormal contact between the different tissues.

The Computation Center at Madrid University (CCUM) is an example of how computation centers, mathematicians and some private computer companies became generators of interaction between technology and other disciplines. In January 1966, Madrid University reached an agreement with IBM to set up a computation center which was, however, not officially opened to the public until March 1969 (so in 2019 we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of that event). IBM agreed to give an IBM 70904 and an IBM 14015 computer to Madrid University and contribute the equivalent of 18,000 euros per year for research scholarships. This center was the first computation center in Spain and these computers were two of the most advanced computers in Europe at that time. Before this center was opened in Madrid, there were only small computers in some departments of various Spanish universities. This is the reason why, although this center was integrated into the Madrid University structure, it was thought to be open to all research and education centers in Spain. Its initial purpose was to foster the use of new mathematic calculation techniques in research and education in Spain, and to support the calculation needs of the Spanish university community. Thus, CCUM’s initial activities were grouped in two main sections: calculation support for University departments, and computer and programming training for students and other professionals not only in Madrid, but all over Spain.

An illustration of the computational method for multiscale modelling of liquids at microscale (Time Asynchronous Relative Dimension in Space, TARDIS) that is under development in the group of Dr Karabasov. The method combines detailed atomistic simulations for the representation of small scales with stochastic continuum fluid dynamics modelling for large scales. Grid on the picture represents continuum hydrodynamics velocity field that has a 'spiky' Brownian behaviour in the central region of small atomistic scales and is smooth in the outer region of large macroscopic scales. Particles represent atomistic interactions which are intense in the region of small scale and dominated by collective hydrodynamic effects at large scale.

Making of impressions from the Ars Electronica's Deep Space 8K, in which the Ars Electronica Futurelab is shooting its "25th Anniversary Series" in an impressive setting. This fifth episode of the Ars Electronica Futurelab’s 25th Anniversary Series, Computation & Beyond, addresses a far-reaching and highly important social question: How can we inspire people to actively and collectively design our future?
Matthew Gardiner and Marianne Eisl, both Artists and Key Researchers in the Ars Electronica Futurelab, present their approach to this issue using key exhibits from the lab's present and past. Using innovative concepts at the crossroads between art, technology and society, they show that it takes much more than a machine can compute to create tangible links: It is about reducing complexity to handy bits of information in order to transform important issues into playful interactive experiences.

Computational neuroscience provides insight into these questions and more. In visually lush presentation, I'll take us on a journey through biological and artificial minds, exploring how models of cognition informed by machine learning and computation can help us illuminate and reconfigure our own processes of being.
PolyArch is a personal research project that started off with a simple question; what is a 3D mesh? Greetings Hemesh, a beautiful library for Processing that enables you to generate 3D geometric form. The intricacies of programming the third dimension are well worth the effort if only like me you eventually come back to 2D with more confidence. You learn a lot about geometry and as Frieder Nake once said to me, "geometry is heaven, graphics is hell." I'm not in total agreement but I always love that quote. Here are some examples of the fruit of that research into the realm of polygons. I called it PolyArch because I'm intrigued too by architecture. Additional raytracing was rendered with SunFlow.
