interesting programs in Java, Python, C++, assembly language, and other tools. This work is not just situated in the natural sciences. In the Department of History, for example, we had a fascinating student-faculty research project this summer that considered again the origins of personal computing. Damian Alessandro studied the history of Apple and their first products, wondering to what extent these systems might be considered ‘convivial’ according to the socio-technical context of the 1970s. (The term

have transformed the modern world, including electrical power systems, battery storage, motion-picture cinema, and sound recording–just to name a few. Every year, the Edison Awards committee receives hundreds of nominations, and after a lengthy process they determine gold, silver, and bronze winners within different categories of science and industry. (For the 2018 awards, they received and reviewed over 3,000 entries.) Checking out the list of nominations and winners is a great way to quickly

, and the process of repetition and confirmation-bias lead discourse to become increasingly extreme and polarized. The prevalence of these scenarios is perhaps more pronounced today than it has ever been, in large part through how technology has increasingly fostered these closed systems in media and social networking. The term has its origins in acoustics, describing a hollow enclosure where sound reverberates. When composing for acoustic instruments and electronics, I’m wary of the meaning that

Medical Sciences (MAMS) program. Shelby Hatton is one of many Lutes who have gone from PLU’s pre-health science undergraduate program into PNW’s MAMS and DO programs. Recently, the two universities recognized this trend and created this partnership to ensure this path continues to serve students – and benefit communities throughout Washington.Then, in November, when the DO students transition to systems courses, the MAMS students take a set of other courses. This includes classes like biomedical

.” “You can zoom in and out on different body systems,” adds Auman. “You can turn the virtual body and rotate your perspective to gain additional insights. And what appears on the table can also be projected on all the new screens around the room.” The new virtual dissection table together with other technology upgrades in the lab ensures students and faculty can also engage with teaching and learning in virtual and hybrid ways, opening up opportunities to collaborate with students, faculty and

. Together, Laurie-Berry said, they make a perfect team. “It’s really a team effort to solve a question or get to the next question,” Dahms said. “You create one little brick in this big wall that people will be able to build upon in the future.” According to Sonnenberg, much of the research on the molecular level deals with human systems. But there’s still so much to learn from how plants work. This is exactly what brought Laurie-Berry to the study of plant pathology. “We know a lot less about (plant

and strategic opportunities.What’s your advice to someone who is interested in becoming more innovative in their day-to-day life, or interested in seeing their world through a more innovative lens? I think it can start with naming creative acts when you see them and when you try them. One part of innovation is creating something new, but it is equally important to improve existing systems and maintain what we already have. If you are volunteering at a local food bank and you see a new way to
