...days like this that make Steve Jobs' dismissive pre-iPhone description of cellular carriers as orifices feel especially prophetic...
...there. University Provost Steven E. Hyman said in a recent interview that he hopes the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology and the Harvard Stem Cell Institute will have space in Cambridge by the beginning of 2011. But to make room, professors in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology will have to vacate their labs in the Sherman Fairchild Biochemistry Building by the spring of 2010.The renovated space in Fairchild and the adjacent Bauer Laboratory will be made “denser and more efficient” for the stem cell researchers. The new design, already used...
Norman Y. Yao ’09 received the 2009 Captain Jonathan Fay Prize from the Radcliffe Institute for breakthrough research on the mechanical properties of cellular networks on Wednesday. Yao was selected for the honor from among the 83 winners of the Thomas T. Hoopes Prize for the quality and impact of his senior thesis, which describes an innovative scientific technique to measure the properties of neurofilaments, one of the structural elements found in nerve cells. "More than anything, I am very humbled and honored to have been selected out of such an amazing group of [Hoopes Prize winners...
...that is, you're connected to the Net. AT&T recently announced a pilot project in Atlanta and Philadelphia that lets netbook users log on anywhere they can get a 3G cellular signal, which will greatly expand coverage beyond the usual islands of wi-fi. In exchange for commitment to a two-year data-service plan, AT&T is subsidizing a range of mini-laptops, which start as low as $49.99. The data plan costs from $40 per month (for 200 MB, which is good for business users), to $60 per month (for 5 GB, enough to move around music...
...test the service at my home in Northern California, and it worked well. In terms of speed, side-by-side tests actually gave AT&T's 3G cellular network the edge over my cable-powered wi-fi network. And no matter where I roamed outside, so long as 3G or wi-fi was available, I was able to get online. No word when this service plan will be commercially available nationwide. Maybe by the time it is, I'll understand the netbook phenomenon...
