At its core, drawing is hand-eye coordination. From Pablo Picasso to Georgia O'Keeffe, artists of all stripes practice quick figure drawings to warm up and keep their eyes sharp. Blind-contour, continuous line figure drawing is a warm-up technique that, once learned, is a versatile addition to any artist's repertoire. Blind-contour, figure drawing stresses paying close attention to one's surroundings while also remaining free and loose. Get a beginner's introduction to figure drawing with Literature, Science, and the Arts junior Elizabeth Yoon.

Materials:
4-6 sheets of 24" x 48" paper (or newspaper or 4 pieces of printer paper taped together) Regular Markers or Sharpies (or if using newspaper, metallic markers) A large sketching board, easel, flat table, or other flat surface

Careers / Jobs:Looking for Your Dream Job in Seattle? Come Learn about Recruitingwith TEKsystems!
2021-07-27 14:00 - 15:00
Are you an upcoming or recent graduate still trying to figure out what your "Dream Job" is? Are you considering a career change and weighing new options? Recruiting can be the best kept secret of career opportunities!

You don't hear kids saying, "I want to be a recruiter when I grow up," but staffing (the art of matching people with jobs) is a $144.5billion dollar industry in the US. Recruiting can be a lifelong career calling OR a stepping stone into another career path. Although hospitality,marketing, communications, and sales are the most common employee backgrounds, a great training program can prepare anyone from an English majorto a social worker for a successful career in recruiting!

We're all trying to find that dream job, but it can be hard to sift through the thousands of career paths and industries in the business world. Recruiting might be the job for you if:
• You love building relationships and interacting with people all day
• You have a competitive streak but still like collaborating with a team
• You've thought about sales but would rather be a consultative matchmaker than someone just pushing a product
• You enjoy the satisfaction of helping others
• You'd rather see immediate reward in your weekly paycheck (base + commission) as opposed to waiting for a 5% raise at the end of the year

Join Allie, Tracy and Tealfrom TEKsystems for a casual info session about the perks and challenges of a career in recruiting, culture at TEKsystems, and the Q&A that YOU want to hear! This is an informal event, and we welcome everyone who is looking to learn more about recruiting or who is interested in a business career at TEKsystems.

Presentation:Contextualized Monitoring in the Marine Environment
2021-07-27 17:00 - 19:00 | Off Campus Location
Co-Chair:
Kira Barton & Alex Shorter

Abstract:
Marine mammal monitoring has seen improvements in the last few decades with advances made to both the monitoring hardware and post-processing computation methods. However, these improvements have primarily been focused on and implemented in wild animal tracking, with less attention paid to the managed environment. This is a particularly important deficiency, as the cooperative nature of institutionally managed animals allows for research on swimming kinematics and energetics behavior with an intricacy that is difficult to achieve in the wild. This dissertation uses robotics-inspired physical kinematics and localization techniques to address two primary limitations in marine mammal monitoring: 1) the lack of persistent, absolute estimates of animal swimming energetics and kinematics, and 2) the lack of a robust, precise localization method for managed cetaceans. To resolve these, the hardware and animal tracking methods developed to enable the rest of the dissertation are first defined. Next, a physics-based approach to directly monitor cetacean swimming energetics is both presented and implemented to study animal propulsion patterns under varying effort conditions. Finally, a high-fidelity 3D monitoring framework is introduced for tracking institutionally managed cetaceans, and is applied alongside the energetics estimation method to provide a first look at the potential of spatially-contextualized animal monitoring.

2021-07-29 15:00 - 16:00
TEKsystems is currently hiring in multiple locations across the US!

Have you recently graduated but haven't found your dream job yet? Are you considering a career change and weighing new options? Recruitingcan be the best kept secret of career opportunities!
You don't hear kidssaying, "I want to be a recruiter when I grow up," but staffing (the art of matching people with jobs) is a $144.5 billion dollar industry in theUS. Recruiting can be a lifelong career calling OR a stepping stone into another career path. Although hospitality, marketing, communications, and sales are the most common employee backgrounds, a great training program can prepare anyone from an English major to a social worker for a successful career in recruiting!

We're all trying to find that dream job, but it can be hard to sift through the thousands of career paths and industries in the business world. Recruiting might be the job for you if:
• You love building relationships and interacting with people all day
• You have a competitive streak but still like collaborating with a team
• You've thought about sales but would rather be a consultative matchmaker than someone just pushing a product
• You enjoy the satisfaction of helping others
• You'd rather see immediate reward in your weekly paycheck (base + commission) as opposed to waiting for a 5% raise at the endof the year

Join Stefanie, Gloria, Haylee, and Angela from the TEKsystems hiring team for an info session about the perks and challenges of acareer in recruiting, culture at TEKsystems, and the Q&A that YOU want to hear! This is an informal event, and we welcome everyone who is looking to learn more about recruiting or who is interested in a business careerat TEKsystems.

Lecture / Discussion:Webinar: Collaborative Science Conversations: Designing Science for Coastal and Ocean Decision Making
2021-07-29 15:00 - 16:00 | Off Campus Location
Collaborative science and the co-production of science involve working closely with partners at every stage - from conceptualizing a new project, to conducting the research, to refining tools to best meet a management need. The goal is to encourage mutually beneficial exchanges between researchers and resource managers. Essential to collaborative science is building relationships and engendering trust among the partners. NOAA’s NERRS Science Collaborative and RESTORE Science programs support collaborative science through funding and partnerships around protected and at-risk coastal and ocean areas.

This webinar, the first jointly hosted event between the NERRS Science Collaborative and RESTORE programs, will feature a panel discussion among three contributors to the programs, highlighting important lessons learned and experiences on how to become effective co-producers of science.

Tonight Kim Richey revisits her classic 1999 album "Glimmer"! “I started off that record scared to death,” Kim recalls of making Glimmer with producer Hugh Padgham back in 1999 in New York and London. A disastrous haircut, unfamiliar musicians, and oversized budgets didn't help matters. “It wasn’t the way I was used to making records.” The way Richey was used to making records was with friends in a vibed-out, low-key setting. That's how she made her debut album with Richard Bennett, and it's how she made her new album, "Long Way Back ... The Songs of Glimmer," with Doug Lancio. So "Glimmer" was different, and not just on the production side. Then, as now, the compositions that make up "Glimmer" were the Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter's first collection of true confessionals. Prior to that she'd been a staff writer at Blue Water Music writing from a more arm's-length vantage point for her first two releases, 1995's "Kim Richey" and 1997's "Bitter Sweet." But "Glimmer" was all her. Come and experience this classic of American songwriting anew.

Diagnostic and monitoring devices based on protein biomarker measurements have the potential to inform courses of treatment in acute conditions and to help manage and prevent disease progression in chronic conditions. The importance of diagnostic and monitoring devices cannot be overstated as medicine is blind without them. However, prevalent conditions such as traumatic brain injury (TBI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) lack adequate diagnostic and monitoring tools.

Assessment of TBI is typically done through neurological examination and neuroimaging techniques. While these methods can identify direct tissue damage to the brain, they cannot assess the secondary damage stemming from the initial injury. The primary tissue damage sets off a cascade of secondary injuries, such as neuronal cell death, blood brain barrier breakdown, edema, and upregulation of inflammatory markers. Protein biomarkers have been proposed as a way of monitoring the progression of secondary TBI injury and of providing more sensitive diagnostic measures when used in conjunction with imaging and physical examination. However, FDA authorized biomarkers, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ubiquitin c-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1), can currently only be measured in a hospital laboratory. Analyzing TBI biomarker data in field and pre-hospital settings would enable rapid diagnosis and delivery of care, so we developed a glass and silicon microfluidic device for quantification of TBI protein biomarkers via bead-based immunoassay. The device consists of a single channel with a variable height profile fabricated by slowly lowering a glass wafer into hydrofluoric acid. The device can capture and separate beads with diameters ranging from 1 to 5 micrometers. We also developed bead-based quantum dot-linked immunosorbent assays (QLISAs) for GFAP, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-8 (IL-8) by conjugating appropriate antibodies to 2.8, 4.5, and 1 micrometer diameter beads, respectively. We used the variable height device to passively separate a mixture of assay beads with completed immunocomplexes into distinct bands where the diameter of the beads matched the height of the channel. The fluorescent intensity of each band was used to quantify a different biomarker concentration, resulting in a customizable brain injury barcode. By changing out the bead size and antibodies used for each immunoassay, the variable height device can keep pace with the developing field of TBI biomarker discovery and validation or be applied to biomarkers for another condition of interest.

We also developed an assay system to monitor CKD, which is one of the ten most common chronic conditions in adults aged 65 and older. Clinical guidelines currently recommend that the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) be measured once a year to monitor disease progression. However, measuring the ACR at home can enable patients to self-identify the early signs of disease progression and consult their physicians, potentially leading to improved outcomes. We designed and analytically validated inexpensive, colorimetric assays for urinary albumin and creatinine intended to be used in a 3D-printed, disposable microfluidic device. Discrepancies between the results from the colorimetric albumin assay and the hospital albumin assay when clinical urine samples were tested highlight the importance of incorporating analytical validation as a checkpoint in the development of microfluidic monitoring systems.

Overall, this work presents a novel method of multiplexing immunoassays in microfluidic systems that can be applied to measure protein biomarkers for TBI or another condition of interest and highlights the importance of integrating assay design with microfluidic device design to promote clinical translation.
