2015 Progress Report: Design And Health Research Consortium

The Architects Foundation, along with the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA), issued this first progress report of the AIA's Design and Health Research Consortium. The consortium helps translate research on design's influence on public health into architectural practice for policymakers, design and public health professionals and the general public.The 2015 report covers consortium activities across a spectrum of research issues where design contributes to public health, from the effects of indoor temperatures on sleep deprivation and depression to a "best design" competition for a mobile isolation treatment unit to combat the Ebola epidemic

An anatomic transcriptional atlas of human glioblastoma.

Glioblastoma is an aggressive brain tumor that carries a poor prognosis. The tumor\u27s molecular and cellular landscapes are complex, and their relationships to histologic features routinely used for diagnosis are unclear. We present the Ivy Glioblastoma Atlas, an anatomically based transcriptional atlas of human glioblastoma that aligns individual histologic features with genomic alterations and gene expression patterns, thus assigning molecular information to the most important morphologic hallmarks of the tumor. The atlas and its clinical and genomic database are freely accessible online data resources that will serve as a valuable platform for future investigations of glioblastoma pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment
