This is a traveling fellowship devoted to track and document marine debris around the world.
As shifting ocean currents discharge large quantities of plastic waste
into strategically located beaches, the multidisciplinary group will
focus on collecting and transforming some of the found plastic into art
installations that are to serve as stages to open up conversations about
plastic pollution. These events are devoted to bring the public and

Dans cet exposé, quelques grands algorithmes d'estimation de paramètres et de génération de trajectoire sont démystifiés. Les principes généraux sont décrits et les points clés de ces méthodes mises en avant. Ils permettent de prendre la mesure des mécanismes qui permettent à un système artificiel d'implémenter des fonctionnalités perceptives observées chez l'animal, comme la perception du mouvement.

In this video, students will witness hippos cozying up to crocodiles. The hippo starts licking the crocodile bodies. The crocs put up with this because the hippo is not a threat and it is much larger and stronger than the crocodiles. This is a great teaching resource for elementary/middle school students. It would work well in conjunction with a science lesson on reptiles, habitats, and odd animal behaviors. Students will enjoy this cute video and it will also help to build background knowledge
La asignatura que vamos a estudiar se denomina Prótesis Dental y dentro de ella nos referimos a la prótesis completa mucosoportada.

On the heels of anti-government uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt, Yemen's president says he will step down when his term ends. Deborah Gembara reports.
The recent economic rise of China and India has attracted a great deal of attention--and justifiably so. Together, the two countries account for one-fifth of the global economy and are projected to represent a full third of the world's income by 2025. Yet, many of the views regarding China and India's market reforms and high growth have been tendentious, exaggerated, or oversimplified. This talk by leading economist Professor Bardhan will explore the challenges that both countries must overcome
PULLMAN, Wash.— Fish and laser beams sound like things out of a sci-fi movie, but a combination of the two is being used for important research into the future of rainbow trout.
In a Washington State University lab no bigger than a closet, small rainbow trout race each day to provide information about their wild and hatchery-raised forms. Associate Professor Patrick Carter is working with third-year Ph.D. student Kristy Bellinger to compare the swimming speeds of the two groups.
