Genetics, modularity, mutation rate, horizontal gene transfer. Dr. Deem's specialty is statistical mechanics, specifically the computer simulation of complex molecular systems. He works in the areas of evolution, immunology, and materials. Dr. Deem has developed methods to quantify vaccine effectiveness and antigenic distance for influenza, methods to sculpt the immune system to mitigate immunodominance in dengue fever, a physical theory of the competition that allows HIV to escape from the immune system, and the first exact solution of a mathematical model of evolution that accounts for cross-species genetic exchange. Dr. Deem's recent study, published in the December 2007 'Physical Review Letters', found that genetic modularity arises spontaneously because of the selective pressure of a changing environment and the existence of horizontal gene transfer.

| Medical physicists at the University of Virginia have created a novel way to kill tumor cells using nanoparticles and light. The technique, devised by Wensha Yang, an instructor in radiation oncology at the University of Virginia, and colleagues Ke Sheng, Paul W. Read, James M. Larner, and Brian P. Helmke, employs quantum dots. Quantum dots are semiconductor nanostructures, 25 billionths of a meter in diameter, which can confine electrons in three dimensions and emit light when exposed to ultraviolet radiation. | |

| • | Need help making computer keyboard audio circuit |
|
Hey, I am a beginner (I usually do software stuff) working on a project right now that requires a circuit that can interpret the key presses from a ps/2 or usb computer keyboard. Then, the circuit (do I need to use a PIC here?) will generate a different tone depending on which key was pressed. Each key would have a unique frequency. Can anyone give me pointers on how to get started? Also, would I be better off just throwing away the keyboard controller circuit and mapping each key into my own circuit? Any help will be much appreciated. If somebody can offer a lot of help in designing this, I am willing to $$pay$$ you very well for your efforts! Thanks! |
