AbstractThe 3D organization of eukaryotic chromosomes affects key processes such as gene expression, DNA replication, cell division, and response to DNA damage. The genome-wide chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) approach can characterize the landscape of 3D genome organization by measuring interaction frequencies between all genomic regions. Hi-C protocol improvements and rapid advances in DNA sequencing power have made Hi-C useful to diverse biological systems, not only to elucidate the role of 3D genome structure in proper cellular function, but also to characterize genomic rearrangements, assemble new genomes, and consider chromatin interactions as potential biomarkers for diseases. Yet, the Hi-C protocol is still complex and subject to variations at numerous steps that can affect the resulting data. Thus, there is still a need for better understanding and control of factors that contribute to Hi-C experiment success and data quality. Here, we evaluate recently proposed Hi-C protocol modifications as well as often overlooked variables in sample preparation and examine their effects on Hi-C data quality. We examine artifacts that can occur during Hi-C library preparation, including microhomology-based artificial template copying and chimera formation that can add noise to the downstream data. Exploring the mechanisms underlying Hi-C artifacts pinpoints steps that should be further optimized in the future. To improve the utility of Hi-C in characterizing the 3D genome of specialized populations of cells or small samples of primary tissue, we identify steps prone to DNA loss which should be optimized to adapt Hi-C to lower cell numbers.Highlights3 to 5 bullet points (maximum 85 characters, including spaces, per bullet point)Variability in Hi-C libraries can arise from early steps of cell preparationHi-C 2.0 changes to interaction capture steps also benefit 6-cutter librariesArtificial molecule fusions can arise during end repair and PCR, increasing noiseCommon causes of Hi-C DNA loss identified for future optimization

Measuring Interaction

The convergence of once disparate voice, video, and data telecommunication technologies and the increasing adoption and cost effective availability of high bandwidth network services among educational institutions, businesses, and home users has rapidly altered the landscape of technology-mediated communications (TMC) in instructional settings. In combination with the use of distance learning technologies, such as Web-based chat and threaded discussion boards that facilitate both synchronous and asynchronous collaboration, many instructional environments are increasingly adopting a blended approach to instruction that includes video communications. One of the evolving and dynamic technology tools that schools and institutions are increasingly utilizing or planning for in learning environments is videoconferencing because of its ability to offer media rich interactive learning opportunities (NCES, 2001; USDOE, 2004). The extent to which the adoption of TMCs and the closely related subject of information communication technologies (ICT) has transformed education is an ongoing debate that continues to be the focus of a variety of academic and industry research studies. One subset of both TMC and ICT that continues to substantially alter classroom pedagogical practices and the perceived viability of distance education is two-way interactive video communications also known as interactive videoconferencing (IVC). The use of videoconferencing in education has rapidly grown over the past several decades. As technology rich learning spaces continue to be constructed, videoconferencing has the ability to substantially alter both face-to-face and online learning. Through numerous authentic learning opportunities, social interactions, virtual field trips and experiences, global communications, and increased personalized contact, videoconferencing facilitates diverse instructional strategies in support of multiple learning styles and cognitive development. To fully and effectively utilize this tool, it is essential that educators are continuously trained on and informed of the evolving teaching and learning methods, styles, and strategies enabled through the dynamic advances in videoconferencing and related instructional technologies. With these changing pedagogical practices and the increasing use of blended learning, new ways of measuring interaction and evaluating instruction need to be developed and teachers will need to be trained on its use and best practices. This and the institutional sustainability of these endeavors are critical aspects of this author’s ongoing research as well as that of several others (Caspi & Gorsky, 2005; Cox & Webb, 2004; Kozma, 2003; Lim, Pek, & Chai, 2005; Lou, Bernard & Abrami, 2006).

Measuring Interaction

Abstract In this paper, a new approach towards input-output pairing for an unstable system has been proposed. First, it is demonstrated that the previous method of input-output pairing for unstable plants cannot find appropriate pairs as it only checks necessary conditions for stability and integrity. Then, a new approach using relative error matrix and genetic algorithm for finding appropriate pairs in unstable systems is proposed. As it is shown, this approach takes into consideration both static and dynamic information of plant in measuring interaction. Finally, the accuracy of proposed method is demonstrated by an example and closed loop simulation.

ABSTRACTIon beam techniques have found increasing application in recent years to a wide variety of disciplines. It is the purpose of this paper to explore their potential in the field of catalysis, concentrating exclusively on solid heterogeneous catalysts. An initial description of the internal structure and external physical form of some typical catalysts is followed by an assessment of the use of ion beams for the preparation and interrogation of both “real” and model catalysts. These techniques are then compared to some of the modern tools used in current catalysis research. It emerges that ion beams can indeed be used to advantage in certain applications, such as detecting light elements selectively; measuring interaction effects between metals and supports in model systems; highlighting surface relaxation effects in metal single crystals; and even, in special circumstances, in synthesising catalysts.
