By Ryan Burns, David Tyler, Erik Linstead School of Computational Sciences Students and faculty in Chapman University’s School of Computational Sciences are building an Autism Management Platform that will provide simple and intuitive communication among doctors, caregivers and parents of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. One of the most common frustrations parents of children with
Join us Wednesday, March 5th at noon in Arygros Forum, room 119B . Michelle Digman, PhD, will present “Imaging the Molecular Dynamics of Focal Adhesion Proteins in Live Cells”. Molecular interactions and mobility can be studied in live cells as well as map the interactions of key focal adhesion proteins in real time and space.
This Valentine’s day, you may want to think twice about who will pick up the check at dinner, as Schmid College of Science and Technology Professor David Frederick has just come out with new research that examines men’s and women’s beliefs about who should pay for dates during courtship, and how couples actually
Chapman University seniors, Maheen Kibriya and Shehzein Khan, are presenting at the 11th Annual Rocky Mountain Bioinformatics Conference in Colorado – a conference of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) which is the largest international organization in computational biology. Integrating Biology and Computer Programming What makes this presentation unique – aside from the fact
Tomorrow, Dr. Erik Linstead and his students will introduce AMP (Autism Management Platform), an integrated, web-based tool for creating, managing, and mining data associated with the treatment of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). AMP’s tablet-based mobile app and corresponding web interface allow parents, therapists, and doctors to share and aggregate multi-media data in real-time,
As part of the Science Forum Series, Dr. Cassandra Medvedeff will be sharing her research about the Controls of Greenhouse Gas Production: Studies from the Florida Everglades to Minnesota Peatlands. Wetlands are key ecosystems that regulate the global carbon cycle through both storing and emitting large quantities of carbon. These ecosystems are the
