SUMMARY:Medicine: A Big Data Revolution Occuring in Our Midst\, Nov 12
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are big data. Analogous to computer code\, human beings are uniquely defined by the information content held within the body and more specifically\, how that information is interconnected. As medical data continues to explode and become increasingly digital\, the vast amount of information that is able to be collected presents significant opportunities to improve the nature of medicine and care. In short\, the influx of patient data and decoded genetics has turned modern medical issues into Big Data problems. In the future\, the Hippocratic Oath will require doctors to take this genetic variability into account\, which poses a number of ethical questions and concerns. \nThis discussion aims to dissect the revolution of personalized medicine\, and more specifically how big data and our decoded genomics will change the nature of disease\, healthcare diagnoses\, treatment\, and regulation. \nBiography:\nTed Driscoll is a Partner in Digital Healthcare at Claremont Creek Ventures. He brings 30 years of experience in health and imaging technology as an investor and entrepreneur.  Ted is an expert on digital health and diagnostics\, from big data and health technology to genomics and personalized medicine.  \nPrior to Claremont Creek\, Ted founded five successful companies in imaging-related markets. He was founder and CEO of Be Here Technologies\, a pioneer in Internet\, Broadcast and Videoconferencing technologies. He also served as CEO of Focus Surgery\, spun off from Diasonics\, and was previously Division President and CTO of Diasonics\, with responsibility for its MRI\, ultrasound\, digital X-ray\, and ablation technology business.  Earlier\, he led the Diasonics team that developed the first commercial MRI scanners.   Previously\, Ted was also Vice President of Engineering at Identix\, then a world leader in fingerprint recognition; and was Director of R&D at International Imaging Systems\, an early pioneer in satellite remote sensing. \nTed was an angel investor with Life Science Angels and a founding director of the Sand Hill Angels and Health Tech Capital.  Ted holds a PhD from Stanford University in Digital Imaging\, Masters degrees from Harvard University in Computer Graphics and Remote Sensing and a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Ted holds 40+ granted US and foreign patents in imaging-related fields. \n———————– \nLive broadcast at  http://video.citris.berkeley.edu/playlists/webcast. Ask questions live on Twitter: #CITRISRE.

SUMMARY:Big Data for Better Medicine\, Dec 3
DESCRIPTION:UCSC has built the Cancer Genomics Hub (CGHub) for the US National Cancer Institute\, designed to hold data for all major NCI projects. To date it has served more than more than 15 petabytes of data to the research committee. Cancer is exceedingly complex\, with thousands of subtypes involving an immense number of different combinations of mutations. The only way we will understand it is to gather together DNA data from many thousands of cancer genomes so that we have the statistical power to distinguish between recurring combinations of mutations that drive cancer progression and “passenger” mutations that occur by random chance. Currently\, with the exception of a few international research projects\, most cancer genomics research is taking place in research silos\, with little opportunity for data sharing. If this trend continues\, we lose an incredible opportunity. \nSoon cancer genome sequencing will be widespread in clinical practice\, making it possible in principle to study as many as a million cancer genomes.  For these data to also have impact on understanding cancer\, we must begin soon to move data into a network of compatible global cloud storage and computing systems\, and design mechanisms that allow genome and clinical data to be used in research with appropriate patient consent. The Global Alliance for Genomics and Health was created to address this problem. Our Data Working Group is designing the future of large-scale genomics for cancer and other diseases. This is an opportunity we cannot turn away from. \nReference: http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2012/EECS-2012-211.html \nBiography:\nDavid Haussler develops new statistical and algorithmic methods to explore the molecular function\, evolution\, and disease process in the human genome\, integrating comparative and high-throughput genomics data to study gene structure\, function\, and regulation. He is credited with pioneering the use in genomics of hidden Markov models (HMMs)\, stochastic context-free grammars\, and discriminative kernel methods. As a collaborator on the international Human Genome Project\, his team posted the first publicly available computational assembly of the human genome sequence on the Internet on July 7\, 2000. His team subsequently developed the UCSC Genome Browser\, a web-based tool that is used extensively in biomedical research and serves\, along with the European Ensembl platform\, virtually all large-scale vertebrate genomics projects\, including NHGRI’s ENCODE project\, the 1000 Genomes Project\, and NCI’s TCGA. As the first designated Trusted Partner of the NIH\, he built the CGHub database to hold NCI’s cancer genome data and is a co-founder and organizing member of the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH)\, a coalition of the top research\, health care\, and disease advocacy organizations that have taken the first steps to standardize and enable secure sharing of genomic and clinical data. \n——————— \nLive broadcast at  http://video.citris.berkeley.edu/playlists/webcast.

SUMMARY:Software-Defined Networks and the Maturing of the Internet
DESCRIPTION:The genius of the pioneers of the Internet was to keep the network of links and routers – the “plumbing” – dumb and minimal\, placing as much of the intelligence as possible in the computers at the edge. Our computers at the edges could be upgraded over time to add new features – such as congestion control and security – without having to change the network. A streamlined network could…

SUMMARY:Erasure Coding for Cloud Storage
DESCRIPTION:As more and more data moves to the cloud\, data replication has become prohibitively costly and there is an acute need for efficient\, fault-tolerant schemes for data storage. Coding theory offers solutions for fault-tolerant storage that are potentially far more efficient than replication. At the same time\, the cloud storage setting presents some unique challenges that traditional…

SUMMARY:Reza Abbaschian\, Trends in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) Education
DESCRIPTION:Materials research over the last three decades has led to significant advances in the manufacturing of new materials with tailored and unique properties for a variety of applications. These advances have come about mostly because of a highly influential National Research Council study titled “Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) for the 1990’s: Maintaining Competitiveness in the Age of Materials\,” that defined and delineated MSE around four basic elements of synthesis and processing\, structure\, properties and performance.  In this presentation\, an overview of the recent trends in incorporating these four basic elements in MSE education will be given\, followed by an example of the MSE program at the University of California\, Riverside. The program offers interdisciplinary BS\, MS and PhD degrees in MSE. At the undergraduate level\, the program integrates with all five engineering departments in the Bourns College of Engineering (BCOE).  This new approach allows students to have meaningful interactions with engineers from other engineering disciplines who ultimately are the “end-users” of materials.  At the graduate level\, the UCR MSE program integrates with other disciplines such as Physics and Chemistry. \nSpeaker Bio: \nReza Abbaschian began his tenure as Dean of the Bourns College of Engineering and Distinguished Professor and William R. Johnson\, Jr. Professor in September 2005 at UC Riverside. Prior to his appointment at UCR Dr. Abbaschian was the Vladimir A. Grodsky Professor of Materials Science and Engineering Department at the University of Florida\, where he also served as Chair of the Department for 16 years. During his tenure\, the Department rose to a U.S. News & World Report top-ten ranking for both undergraduate and graduate education. \nDr. Abbaschian received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley\, M.S. in metallurgical engineering from Michigan Technological University\, and BSc in mining and metallurgy from Tehran University. He has published more than 250 scientific articles on subjects ranging from metal processing to composites\, solidification and high temperature-high pressure growth of jewelry diamonds\, which led to the formation of Gemesis Diamond Company. He holds five patents and eight patent disclosures and has authored eight books\, including the recently published fourth edition of Physical Metallurgy Principles. \nDr. Abbaschian is a past President of ASM International\, the largest materials society. His awards include the TMS Educator Award\, Structural Material Division’s Distinguished Scientist/Engineer Award\, TMS Leadership Award\, ASEE Donald E. Marlowe Award\, Davis Productivity Award of the State of Florida\, and the Albert Sauveur Achievement Award which he received on October 2013 in Montreal\, Canada. The award recognized him as “outstanding scientist and researcher in solidification fundamentals and materials processing\, educator and leader in advancing the materials profession.” He has been elected a Fellow of ASM\, TMS and AAAS. \n  \nFree and open to the public\, the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series is a weekly dialogue highlighting leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each one-hour seminar starts at 12pm PST and is hosted live in the Banatao Auditorium at Sutardja Dai Hall on the UC Berkeley campus (*unless otherwise noted). Lunch is provided at UC Berkeley for those who register in advance. \nLive webcasting of each CITRIS Research Exchange seminar is available at these CITRIS campuses and also online: \n\nCITRIS @ Davis: 1131 Kemper Hall\, College of Engineering\, UC Davis\nCITRIS @ Merced: 322-Willow\, Classroom and Office Building (COB)\, UC Merced\nCITRIS @ Santa Cruz: Room 595B\, Engineering 2 Building\, Baskin School of Engineering\, UC Santa Cruz\n\nAsk questions live via Twitter using #CITRISRE. All talks may be viewed on our YouTube channel at least a week after the event. \nThe full schedule for the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series can be found on the CITRIS site.
