At the core of this development is a set of ambient ionization experiments in which ionization is performed in air, outside the mass spectrometry using a charged spray (desorption electrospray ionization, DESI) or other simple (and fast) procedure. Samples can also be ionized directly from a substrate such as paper or plant material (paper spray, PS) or by using low temperature plasma for ionization. DESI is applied in disease diagnosis by imaging tissue sections for their lipid distributions. These methods give qualitative and quantitative information on particular systems. In the case of DESI, an imaging experiment utilizes the spatial distribution of the chemical information collected for multiple analytes from the mass spectrometer to analyze histological sections of biological tissue. Examples of disease diagnostics in human bladder, liver and brain cancer will be given. The low temperature plasma ionization method is applied to food safety including bacterial identification. The very simple ionization method of paper spray is applied to quantitation of therapeutic drugs in whole blood in a few seconds. The combination of these ambient ionization techniques with miniature mass spectrometers allows rapid in situ analysis, at home, in the grocery store, on the factory floor. Applications of mass spectrometry to guide surgical decision-making in real time are just one of the outcomes indicated by the data described. So too are in situ real-time measurements of drug levels in blood, agrochemical residues in foods, and many other applications of complex mixture analysis.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbout the Speaker:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EGraham Cooks is a \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.chem.purdue.edu\/people\/faculty\/faculty.asp?itemID=1\u0022\u003EHenry Bohn Hass Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at Purdue University\u003C\/a\u003E and Director of the \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/caid.chem.purdue.edu\/\u0022\u003ECenter for Analytical Instrumentation Development\u003C\/a\u003E.

These interests led to the construction of miniature ion trap mass spectrometers and their application to problems of trace chemical detection. His work on ionization methods has contributed to the ambient ionization methods including desorption electrospray ionization. Some inventions and concepts introduced by Cooks are ion soft landing, neutral loss scans, the use of matrices in ionization, multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), single reaction monitoring (SRM), hybrid mass spectrometers, handheld mass spectrometers, the kinetic method of thermochemical determination and MS\/MS for mixture analysis.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECooks is a past president of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry and the International Mass Spectrometry Society and a Life Member of the British Mass Spectrometry Society.

Nanomedicine can increase the quality and length of human life. The leap from current medical capabilities to those of nanomedicine will be similar in magnitude to the impact on computer science of the transition from vacuum tubes to silicon chips in the 20th century. In the 21st century, nanomedicine will challenge and change the way medicine approaches disease. Through the discovery of disease origins and the use of new imaging and drug delivery systems, we are entering a revolutionary period of unparalleled advances in biomedical research and the practice of medicine. Advancements in nanomedicine are happening weekly in the areas of disease diagnosis, imaging and treatment. Building on the relevant nanotechnologies, nanomedicine will revolutionize medicine as we know it \u2013 yielding less diffuse delivery of medications, resulting in less stress (side-effects) on the human body and more successful medical outcomes (\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.centerfornanomedicine.org\u0022\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.centerfornanomedicine.org\u003C\/a\u003E).\n\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWe are fortunate to have Thomas Barker, PhD (BME, GaTech\/Emory), Gang Bao, PhD (BME, GaTech\/Emory), and Wilbur Lam, MD (BME, GaTech.\/ Emory Medical School), known for their pioneering work in the area of \u201cNanomedicine,\u201d speak to us on their current research topic.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EA box lunch is also included at no cost to the participants. \u0026nbsp;To make lunch reservation, please RSVP \u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:paul.joseph@mirc.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Epaul.joseph@mirc.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E before \u003Cstrong\u003EOctober 14, 2011\u003C\/strong\u003E. \u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAfter the talks, a tour of the Nanotechnology Research Center facility will be organized to the interested participants. \u0026nbsp;Please let us know if you would like to participate when you send RSVP to reserve your place.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EFall 2011 NanoFANS Forum\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Focusing on \u0022Nanomedicine\u0022"}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2011-09-14 15:01:38","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:55:42","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2011-10-21T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2011-10-21T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2011-10-21T15:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2011-10-21 16:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2011-10-21 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2011-10-21 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.centerfornanomedicine.org\/","title":"Center for Nanomedicine website"}],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.

A great variety of metals and metallic alloys at different stages have\nbecome the very cornerstone on which our society is based, since the inception\nof this ancient yet vibrant discipline. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; However,\ncomputational metallurgical mechanics remains elusive largely owing to the\ndisconnect between the modern computational approaches and the complexity of\nmost metallurgical topics. Just tapping into one of the most discussed\nmetallurgical phenomena, decarburization, the work presented in this thesis\nsummarizes the research conducted on quantifying the progression of\ndecarburization and its impact on the mechanical properties of steel samples.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; The\ntopics researched in this work serve, but are not limited to, the production of\nhollow metal proppants used for underground oil and natural gas reserve\nextraction, including calculating the progression and the impact of\ndecarburization that occurs during the heat processing of steel in a\ntime-dependent fashion and modeling the deformation behavior of a maraging\nsteel hollow sphere. Then the decarburization model is modified to relate the\noverall mechanical properties of the impact-resistant\nMg\/Al\/maraging-steel-hollow-sphere composite material to its microstructure. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; As\nmuch as 95% by weight of all metal produced worldwide is steel. In order to\nobtain higher strength and eliminate residual stress, steel is heated to high\ntemperatures to allow for homogenization followed by heat treating at a variety\nof temperatures and times to enhance the overall mechanical properties.\nHowever, decarburization, commonly known as the loss of carbon to the\nenvironment due to\u0026nbsp; its reaction with the atmosphere, will occur and\nresult in considerable strength loss. To avoid potential dangers such as\nreduced static and fatigue properties, the mechanical property variations must\nbe determined with respect to the heat treatment temperature and time. This\nwork also outlines the procedures used to quantify the effects of processing\ntemperature on the microstructure. These effects include average particle size,\nparticle volume fraction, void and porosity. Once completed, the deformation\nbehavior of the maraging steel hollow spheres is investigated in the subsequent\nwork to visualize the stress environment in which the proppants would function.\nTo further the effort, the hollow maraging steel spheres are cast into Mg\/Al\nalloy matrix and the properties of the resulted impact-resistant composite\nmaterial are simulated loosely based on the microstructure model established\nfor the decarburization process. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; Modeling\nmakes it economically practical to assess the targeted materials\u0027 overall\nproperties, behaviors and the mechanical responses in conjunction with stress\nenvironment, material dimensions (sphere size, sphere wall thickness, etc.)\namong other variables, before a structure is built.

The speakers include leading researchers from across the world.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe 2011 Suddath Symposium on the Ribosome at Georgia Tech brings together researchers who are exploring various aspects of ribosome structure and function. The ribosome is a molecular machine that is responsible for protein synthesis in all living cells. This indispensable component of life, which contains both RNA and proteins, can be viewed as a molecular fossil. That is, the comparison of ribosomal RNA and proteins from distantly related organisms suggests that the origins and evolution of protein synthesis remain imprinted in present day ribosomes, providing a \u201crewindable\u201d molecular recording of early evolution that appears to go all the way back to the origin of life. Because the ribosome is central to the biochemistry of all life, it is a major target for drug development. For example, the mode of action of many antibiotics is to inhibit translation or cause bacterial ribosome to make mistakes during protein synthesis. Due to differences between bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomes, the result of billions of years of divergent evolution, drugs can be highly effective against bacterial ribosomes without causing appreciable side effects in human cells. Thus, studies of ribosome structure, function and evolution have scientific implications ranging from understanding the origin and early evolution of life to the development of novel pharmaceuticals.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOn behalf of the Parker H.

The LbL hierarchic construction of films can be achieved by introducing heterogeneous polymers, resulting in novel polymer blend systems. We focused on the fabrication of stereocomplex LbL films by van der Waals interactions and the construction of biocompatible hollow capsules for drug delivery system by LbL assembly. The multilayered films with tuneable physic-chemical properties prepared by LbL assembly have great potential for varied applications.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe creation of artificial three-dimensional (3D) tissues possessing a similar structure and functions as natural tissue is a key challenge for implantable tissues in tissue engineering, and for model tissues in pharmaceutical assay. Recently, we demonstrated a simple 3D-cell manipulation technique for the construction of hierarchically layered structures, which possess a precisely controlled layer number and type of cells, by the direct fabrication of a fibronectin (FN)-gelatin (G) nanofilm like an ECM on the surface of each cell layer. Since the FN-G nanofilms with over 6 nm thick acted as a scaffold for the cell adhesion of the second layer, we successfully developed hierarchical cellular multilayers composed of various type of cells, such as human primary fibroblasts, mouse C2C12 myoblasts, rat primary cardiac myocytes, and human primary smooth muscle cells, even 10 layers In addition, blood vessel model tissues with varied layer numbers composed of human smooth muscle cell (UASMC) and human endothelial cell (HUVEC) were also fabricated by this technique. These hierarchical structures would be useful as a 3D-layered model tissue for tissue engineering and pharmaceutical assay.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EReference: Michiya Matsusaki, Koji Kadowaki, Yoshio Nakahara, Mitsuru Akashi, \u00e2\u0080\u009cFabrication of Cellular Multilayers with Nanometer-Sized Extracellular Matrix Films\u00e2\u0080\u009d, Angew.
