Nobel Prize Chemistry 2024

This year's Nobel Prize for Chemistry

Chemists have long dreamed of fully understanding and mastering the chemical tools of life – proteins. This dream is now within reach. Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper have successfully utilised artificial intelligence to predict the structure of almost all known proteins. David Baker has learned how to master life’s building blocks and create entirely new proteins. The potential of their discoveries is enormous.

Critical thinking web

With the recent riots in the UK, fuelled by misinformation. This link on a Fediverse caught my eye.

Critical thinking web have some learning modules which combine to make a course:-

  • Critical thinking
  • Meaning analysis
  • Argument analysis
  • Basic logic
  • Venn diagrams
  • Sentential logic
  • Predicate logic
  • Scientific methodology
  • Basic statistics
  • Values
  • Strategic reasoning
  • Fallacies and biases
  • Creativity

These courses and modules would be of interest to students but also anyone who wants to improve their own ability to think and understand the information we are presented (or perhaps bombarded with) on a daily basis, from a wide range of sources.

Follow aggualaqisaaq @aggualaqisaaq@mastodon.sdf.org on Mastodon to get updates or similar resources.

Ii think this fediverse post link is a good example of why we need these skills

STSCI Public lecture – Sept 2024

NASA's Next Big Thing: The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope

Date: Tue 3 Sep 2024 Location: Virtual Time: 8:00 PM – 9:30 PM EDT

**Speaker: **Ori Fox (Space Telescope Science Institute)

More information can be found here

NASA's upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) is readying for launch in late 2026. Roman will be able to survey the sky 1,000 times faster than Hubble. It will collect near-infrared imaging and spectroscopic data with Hubble-quality resolution and sensitivity over fields of view 200 times greater than the Hubble's. Roman's data will enrich all areas of astrophysics by enabling studies of nearly every class of astronomical object, phenomenon, and environment across the observable universe. Dr. Fox will discuss the details of the Roman mission, with a focus on its scientific goals. These exciting studies include the discovery of thousands of new planets and pinpointing the source of a mysterious force called Dark Energy that permeates our Universe.

I will try and share some thoughts on my Matrix Science Room
