SUMMARY:Precambrian-Cambrian boundary Explosion II
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: \nDr. Shuhai Xiao will talk about animal evolution in the Ediacaran Period or on the eve of the Cambrian explosion\, from a paleontological perspective. Specifically\, he would like to discuss the significance of Ediacaran microfossils and macrofossils\, and the geological and environmental context of early animal evolution. This is a follow up to the panel discussion we had months about by Bill Schmachtenberg and Alex Hastings.  \n \nSpeaker: Dr. Shuhai Xiao is a paleobiologist and geobiologist who studies the interactions between the biosphere and its environments at critical transitions in Earth history\, particularly during the Ediacaran-Cambrian transition. He integrates paleobiological\, sedimentological\, and geochemical data to shed light on important evolutionary events (such as the origin and diversification of eukaryotes\, multicellular organisms\, and animals)\, their environmental contexts\, and their geobiological consequences. \nMore information about Dr. Xiao \n  \nIs this the first time you will attend a presentation with us?\nFollow this link first.

SUMMARY:First Image of a supermassive Black Hole
DESCRIPTION:Photo: Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration \n“Staring into the abyss: the first image of a supermassive black hole” \nOn April 10 of this year\, the Event Horizon Telescope team released a radio image of the black hole at the core of the galaxy M87.  The image is a ring of light\, brighter on one side.  What does it mean?  What does it tell us about the black hole?  Why are people so excited about it? \nIn this talk\, I’ll discuss what black holes we know are out there\, including supermassive black holes like this one.  I’ll talk what it really means to take a picture of something that no light escapes from\, and I’ll talk about how the image we see is just as much affected by the gravity of the black hole as it is by the plasma that actually emitted the light we’re looking at. \n  \n— Rob Knop  \nHomepage \nBlog \nPrevious work in the Library \nPrevious work in the Film Collection \nPodcast Interview with Rob

SUMMARY:The NEW Interactive brain
DESCRIPTION:How Your Brain Works: This is an interactive experience created by Osangar\, an fmri researcher. \nThe NEW Brodmann’s Brain allows visitors to explore how 52 regions of the brain are correlated with body processes that occur when\, for example\, meditating\, driving a car\, having various kinds of thoughts and feelings.\nOsangar will demonstrate how this virtual brain works and what you can learn about your own brain from it. She will be in text only and will be assisted in voice by Wisdomseeker and Tooyaa. \nThis Field Trip is being sponsored by The Science Circle and Nonprofit Commons.\nIt will start at this landing point on Inspiration Island \nOsanGar’s Bio: BA Philosophy Yale\, MA Stanford counselling psychology\, MD and Neurology Albert Einstein\, post doc in fMRI lab \n  \nThe NEW Interactive brain \nInspiration Island – Whole Brain Health Programs\nThis year the interactive brain tour has been totally upgraded with brain cortex regions imported from brain MRIs with the technical assistance of Brain Voyager in Maastricht\, Netherlands and Ghaelen D’Lareh. \n  \nPrevious work from Lynne Berrett (Lissena Wisdomseeker) \nLibrary \nFilm Collection \n  \nIs this the first time you will attend a presentation with us?\nFollow this link first.
