The University of Oregon professor of physic s is leading the way with internationally recognized research into fract als—curious patterns found in nature that repeat themselves. Taylor's st artling discoveries show that these patterns-within-patterns may signifi cantly reduce stress and have interesting implications for psychology\, medicine\, and even the semiconductor industry. Taylor has applied his s tudies to art\, showing how fractal patterns in the work of abstract exp ressionist Jackson Pollock can distinguish a real Pollock from a fake. C ome hear about this amazing intersection of art and science. \;\n  3\;\nRichard Taylor\, PhD\, is an associate professor in physics\, psych ology\, and art at the University of Oregon. Transforming lives by erasi ng academic boundaries might be why Taylor was named Outstanding Teacher in Higher Education for 2005 by the Oregon Academy of Science.\n\nTags: science\, beer\, pub\, geek\, nerd\, mission\, omsi\, lecture\n\nImport ed from: http://calagator.org/events/1250456458 URL:http://omsi.edu/sciencepub SUMMARY:[Science Pub] Snowflakes\, Stress\, and Semiconductors: Do You Se e A Pattern Here?

They have many distinctive traits separating them from their cou sins\, the great apes (orang\, gorilla and chimp)\, including the abilit y to move just using their arms (i.e. brachiation)\, monogamy\, and voca lization to defend their territory. \;\nLucia Carbone\, PhD\, Assist ant Professor at OHSU studying genomics and epigenetics\, has been study ing the gibbon genome to learn more about these species and primate evol ution in general. Her talk will go over her latest findings and highligh t a fascinating connection between processes in evolution and human dise ase. \;\n \;\nSpider Venoms: The Evolution of an Arsenal \;\nS piders (all 44\,000 species) play key roles in our ecosystems as predato rs of insects. Without spiders there would be many more insects and fewe r plants. Evolution over the last 400 million years has created enormous diversity among spiders in predatory tactics\, including web and venom use\, which has resulted in a phenomenal diversity of silk and venom che mistry. \;\nGreta Binford\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Biology at L ewis &\; Clark College\, studies diversity and evolution of spiders a nd their venoms\, including the toxic brown recluse and its relatives. S he will highlight some of the beautiful biological diversity of spiders’ feeding biology\, silks\, and venoms\, and discuss how evolution has ge nerated a "\;pharmacopeia"\; of unique toxins that are rich in p otential for human applications. \;\n \;\n \;\n*A note on the suggested cover: Nerd Nite is completely supported by money collected at the door.

Ye t throughout the taming the river by building sea walls\, the dredging a nd channeling to facilitate shipping\, and the 100+ years of dumping tox ins and waste\, the Willamette is still a living river with birds and fi sh and people who dependent on it. Keith Johnson\, Manager of the DEQ No rthwest Region Cleanup Program\, and Kevin Parrett\, NWR Cleanup Section Manager at the DEQ\, will give us a visual history of the Willamette an d how the river and the city have changed each other. \;\n \;\n 3\;\nThe Subsurface History of Portland \;\n \;\nPeople have been moving the earth around in the Portland Metro area to suit our needs sin ce the earliest days of urban habitation\, and this history of cutting a nd filling impacts many aspects of living and working in the city. Engin eer Stuart Albright from Apex Companies will present historic maps and p hotos of Portland that he uses to evaluate the location and extent of th e earthwork and landfilling that has shaped this area.
