From MIT.WORLD at MIT.EDU Wed Apr 7 16:24:52 2004 From: MIT.WORLD at MIT.EDU (MIT.WORLD) Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2004 16:24:52 -0400 Subject: [Mitworld] New: Peter Sorger and Frank Cloutier Message-ID: Hello Friends of MIT World, Go to http://mitworld.mit.edu for the newest videos. Computational and Systems Biology 2nd Annual Symposium on Systems Biology From Bioinformatics to Biofabrication presents Peter Sorger Director, Computational and Systems Biology Initiative (CSBi), MIT "Computational and Systems Biology at MIT" In this presentation, Sorger discusses the creative brain power that will be necessary to take the relatively young field of computational biology to the next level. Hosted by Computational and Systems Biology at MIT and co-sponsored by MIT's Industrial Liaison Program (ILP) The Cambridge-MIT Institute (CMI) The Singapore-MIT Alliance (SMA) *********************** The MIT Industrial Liaison Program presents Frank Cloutier Vice President and Chief Technology Officer Imaging and Printing Group Hewlett-Packard Company "Building One of the World's Largest Technology Businesses (and How to Have Fun and Profit from Your Hobbies)" Perhaps you've forgotten the noise, hassle and poor quality of the dot matrix printer. Hear first hand the story of the innovation behind the now ubiquitous inkjet printer, and the creative minds behind Hewlett-Packard's success in imaging and printing. H-P VP Cloutier tells a story with a lesson: "begin with the end in mind". This is the 13th event on MIT World from the Industrial Liaison Program.

The MIT Western Hemisphere Project presents "Investigating the Bush Administration's Misuse of Science" Kevin Knobloch President of the Union of Concerned Scientists Respondents: Philip Morrison Institute Professor and Professor of Physics, Emeritus, MIT E.O. Wilson Pellegrino University Professor, Emeritus, Harvard University Hear first hand from Knobloch about this controversy that has been circulating in more than the 24 hour news cycle. Respondent Morrison stresses the need for accurate scientific information, and Wilson makes the case that "science is not an ideology". This event is presented in association with the MIT Student Pugwash, the Technology and Culture Forum and the Program in Human Rights and Justice. *********************** Computational and Systems Biology 2nd Annual Symposium on Systems Biology From Bioinformatics to Biofabrication presents "Academic Perspectives: A Panel Discussion" Moderated by Douglas A. Lauffenburger Whitaker Professor of Biological Engineering, Chemical Engineering, and Biology Lauffenburger moderates a panel discussion with many of the participants from the symposium on what educators need to "get right" now to ensure the next generation of biologists will be prepared to think and learn in systems.
