Research Week is January 25-29
The plans have been adjusted a bit for virtual participation, but all systems are go for Research Week 2021 at Duke, Jan. 25-29.
This first-ever event will include the inaugural Ingrid Daubechies Lecture and updates from Duke researchers working on the frontiers of political science, Covid, Quantum computing, CRISPR gene editing and artificial intelligence. Participants can earn some Responsible Conduct of Research training credits and hear a sampling of work from our students and postdocs.
The Office of Research, which is hosting the event, will also be unveiling a powerful new platform for research planning and administration, myRESEARCHsuite.
Affected Three customers have mainly been tweeting about issues receiving and placing calls today.
Messaging the @ThreeUKSupport account, one tweeted: Myself, my girlfriend and my mother are all having an issue where are numbers are not being recognised for a call, never connecting and can t call on a landline. We re all on 3 on separate contracts and all paid up. Is there an outage going on?
Three network introduce their new mobile app
While another posted: @ThreeUKSupport My calls either won’t connect, or if they do, none of the number options are recognised. I’m trying to call my son’s GP and have tried from mine and my brother in law’s phones (both with 3). Our data also doesn’t seem to be working.

Stanford engineers find a way to control chemical catalysts with sculpted light
Using state-of-the-art fabrication and imaging, researchers watched the consequences of adding sculpted light to a catalyst during a chemical transformation. This work could inform more efficient – and potentially new – forms of catalysis. By Taylor Kubota
Like a person breaking up a cat fight, the role of catalysts in a chemical reaction is to hurry up the process – and come out of it intact. And, just as not every house in a neighborhood has someone willing to intervene in such a battle, not every part of a catalyst participates in the reaction. But what if one could convince the unengaged parts of a catalyst to get involved? Chemical reactions could occur faster or more efficiently.
Foreign affairs experts say Beijing is researching, funding, and developing a wide range of technologies including quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and cloud seeding that could be weaponized against the U.S. and any other country China views as an.
Brittany Williams fits that bill.
The founder of Greensboro s iAlign Dance Company, Williams and her team have collected new and gently used laptops from businesses and individuals, refurbished the computers and distributed them to Guilford County students in need.
So far, they have handed out nearly 500 laptops so that students can learn remotely during the pandemic.
Williams campaign has landed her on the Friday, Jan. 15 episode of Rachael Ray the syndicated daily talk and lifestyle television program hosted by the celebrity cook and author.Â
âHer good deed has literally transformed into a movement, Ray says of Williams in a segment recorded before Christmas. Hereâs another example of how each one of us can literally change the world.â
