Some people are coming in with other medical illnesses like appendicitis or head injuries, and we find that they actually have COVID 19, although they had no symptoms. This is particularly concerning because it means that there are a lot of asymptomatic people who don’t really have any symptoms at all, but who clearly have the disease. We go ahead and test them and treat them accordingly.

In cave bears, we find that, although most caves were occupied simultaneously, each cave almost exclusively contains a unique lineage of closely related haplotypes. This remarkable pattern suggests extreme fidelity to their birth site in cave bears, best described as homing behaviour, and that cave bears formed stable maternal social groups at least for hibernation. In contrast, brown bears do not show any strong association of mitochondrial lineage and cave, suggesting that these two closely related species differed in aspects of their behaviour and sociality.

I chime in since I just went through the job hunting process. It depends, basically. Smaller companies are more likely to ask for takehomes where you might build an application end to end, but larger companies are going to be more DS focused, even if it might not directly applicable to the position.

The Emerald Ash Borer was detected in Madison in 2013. The invasive beetle is expected to decimate much of our urban forest especially in the central city over the coming years. $1.4M is allocated in 2015 and a $1M/year through 2020 to remove and replace trees in the street terrace and parks.

Throughout 2016, Girl Scouts across the country are inviting alumnae and supporters to join them in 100 Years of Changing the World by highlighting girls and women who have received the Gold Award, the highest award a Girl Scout can earn. The Gold Award centennial recognizes a century of girls whose service projects have created meaningful, sustainable change in their communities and around the world. Schumer, who has been working to bring attention and applause to New York based organizations that have helped boost New York economy, joined GSUSA in celebrating the many Girl Scout Gold Award recipients who have positively impacted New York and the country with their creative, substantive, and sustainable Action projects.

An integrated particle model is developed to study fluid structure interaction (FSI) problems with fracture in the structure induced by the free surface flow of the fluid. In this model, the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) based on the kernel approximation and particle approximation is used to model the fluid domain in accordance with Navier Stokes equations and the Discrete Element Method (DEM) with a parallel bond model is used to represent the real solid structure through a hexagonal packing of bonded particles. Validation tests have been carried out for the DEM model of the structure with deformation and fracture failure, the SPH model of the fluid and the coupled SPH DEM model of FSI without fracture, all showing very good agreement with analytical solutions and/or published experimental and numerical results.
