Stanford University, Department of Biology, Stanford, CA, USAOrganizer Department of Biomolecular SciencesContact Abstract Show full text abstract about Non-centrosomal microtubule (MT) arrays are the main cytoske...» Non-centrosomal microtubule (MT) arrays are the main cytoskeleton substrate for cargo transport in many differentiated cells, including neurons, myotubes and epithelia. How MT organization-i.e. polymer length, number and spacing-is regulated, and how it impinges on transport is unclear. This question is critical in neurons, which, due to the length of their processes, are particularly vulnerable to impaired transport. We developed a light-based method for analyzing neuronal MT organization that circumvents the need for electron microscopy reconstructions and is compatible with live imaging of cargo transport and MT dynamics. I will describe how age, MT associated proteins and signaling pathways control the architecture of the neuronal MT network. I will also discuss how, in turn, MT organization and dynamics determine the progression of axonal transport, and outline future questions raised by these studies.

We highlight classical and quantum features of these "Lifshitz spacetimes" which limit the reconstructability of bulk spacetime information from boundary data. We additionally discuss the fate of various spacetime reconstruction procedures in Lifshitz spacetimes. We close by examining the limitations placed on entropy-based spacetime reconstruction due to holographic screens -

University of ColoradoOrganizer Department of Chemical and Biological PhysicsContact Abstract Show full text abstract about Processes and species encountered at high temperatures are i...» Processes and species encountered at high temperatures are important in a wide range of scientific and applied fields including combustion, atmospheric chemistry, and molecular astronomy. Understanding these reactions and molecules, however, is difficult due to the complex nature of the chemistry that occurs in extreme environments. I will discuss novel spectroscopic tools, both conceptual and experimental, for attacking molecular questions in high temperature chemistry. These capabilities not only enable the complete mapping of kinetic reaction networks, but also open new windows onto high temperature behavior by providing an additional dimension of quantum state specific data. -

Abstract: We will discuss some expectations regarding properties of N=1 SCFTs in four dimensions obtained by compactifying (1,0) theories in six dimensions on a Riemann surface. We will illustrate in detail how these properties come about in the special case of compactifications of two M5 branes probing Z_2 singularity. In particular, we will obtain a large class of strongly coupled N=1 theories in four dimensions obtained in such compactifications. We will derive some of their robust properties, such as anomalies and supersymmetric indices.
