Digital archiving and retrieval tool
Our poster will present DART, the Digital Archiving and Retrieval Tool, a system
intended to support engineers in archiving digital data developed over the course of the
design process. DART is a direct product of recent experiences in adding collaboration,
archiving, and version control systems to project components of university-level
engineering curricula. The primary insights include the necessity of minimal disruption to
the workflow and the utility of a basic, data-grabbing, "cyber-forensics" approach to
digital archiving. The system incorporates those principles, providing a tool by which
useful data and context may be stored while imposing minimal learning curve or
workflow change. An explicit tradeoff is made between the ability to easily manage and
analyze archived data versus adoption of the tool and successful data archiving
Resolution of inflammation: a new therapeutic frontier
Dysregulated inflammation is a central pathological process in diverse disease states. Traditionally, therapeutic approaches have sought to modulate the pro- or anti-inflammatory limbs of inflammation, with mixed success. However, insight into the pathways by which inflammation is resolved has highlighted novel opportunities to pharmacologically manipulate these processes — a strategy that might represent a complementary (and perhaps even superior) therapeutic approach. This Review discusses the state of the art in the biology of resolution of inflammation, highlighting the opportunities and challenges for translational research in this field
