Soma resin [ 3D Printer ]

Soma resin

3D printers are becoming more common in college environments, industrial and scientific. Gradually incorporate other household types to become an element of our toolboxes.

These tools allow 3D models from a data file that describes the geometry. Normally be used for parts or mechanical objects or simple rapid prototyping.

Here I present the results of using this technique to produce 3D views of the soma of a neuron, that can be used for the study neuroscientists morphologically.

We spoke with Javier DeFelipe on Innovation and Neuroscience

Javier_deFelipe

After the conference Innovation & Neuroscience: Innovation in science: what makes us humanosimpartida by Professor Javier DeFelipe in the BBVA Innovation Center 18 October, conducted a short interview that has been edited with images of the event.

Javier reinforces the idea of ​​the need for post-processing image recognition and chart the progress of science.

Innovation & Neuroscience: Innovation in science: what makes us human

javierdefelipe

Javier DeFelipe left us engrossed for near 80 minutes with an interesting talk, within the cycle of conferences on innovation that celebrates the BBVA.

I connect this input to keep this magical moment in which a more skilled people currently in this field, has given us some of your time with a masterful oratory.

Erupción solar [ NASA ]

Erupción solar

The 31 August 2012 alone Dynamics Observatory of NASA, NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), captured a spectacular solar flare can be seen in one of the videos used for scientific publication.
The film shows the spectrum of light with wavelengths between 304 Angstroms y 171 Angstroms, used by scientists to observe the Sun's atmosphere, the corona.

Completion of the dendrites and axon [ image ]

Neuron visual lobe of a bumblebee

Image of a neuron, VCH-cobalt, of a bumblebee (“Blowfly”) female, situated in its visual lobe, that has been treated with visualization software to segment neuron model based on various parameters.

In this case, the neuron is colored highlighting varying the diameter of the filiform elements that compose (axon and dendrites).

Brain IV : Brain - Glossy [ Imagen ][ Wallpaper ]

brain_cycles_150

A new rendering of the 3D model of the brain made with Blender animation software.
In this case we have defined material surfaces “Glossy” and has used a shader (render) with the new model called “Cycles” technique that uses a multi-pass rendering with light transport.

Metric geometry : Investment : Application to the resolution of problems and angular tangents

Application inversion

Investment is a transformation that can solve problems with angular conditions. It can be applied directly or used to reduce other problems addressed simplest known nature.

The different approaches with which we can deal with a problem will be studied by developing a simple classic problem of tangents.

Metric geometry : Homotecia

Transformaciones - homotecia

Dilation is a transformation that preserves homographic relations between two segments as homothetic, besides being parallel to each other, so determines and maintains similar figures angular relations (is in accordance).

Its main application is the determination of geometry problems with area ratios in similar figures; It is also useful for solving some exercises tangencies.

Metric geometry : Determining radio circumferences known angular conditions

Geometric Places

Problems of determination with known radius circles that meet geometric constraints are exercises of a similar nature to those seen for straight. Estos se resuelven mediante la intersección de lugares geométricos.

En particular, if we consider the line as infinite radius circumference, estaremos por tanto en el caso estudiado de determinación de rectas con condiciones angulares.

Metric geometry : Determination of lines with angular conditions

angle between line and circle conditions

The determination of a line in the plane requires two geometric constraints; among the employed conditions are the pass or membership of a point and angular type (form an angle with another line or circle).

Discuss the angular relation of a given condition to provide a method of obtaining solutions for reducing problems tangency circumference, valid for one or two angular conditions.
