git push many files
I need to add 737 files from blacklight simulation. Using GitHub the process is too slow and exhausted the RAM. I was forced to try command line version.
on mactower:
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "diggin.ms02.from blacklight"

sbio233, chapter 2, cell structure and function
Preparation:
Plastic sheets, pencils, dark markers, => contrast
Microscope
Play dough => morphology
A tray of water, a small bottle of oil, a micro pipetman and tips => thin lipid layer.
2:30pm. Ask student to draw with colored markers. I draw a cell with a pencil.
3pm. Have trouble with video play in powerpoint. I played manually using the html file.
3:10 playdough exercise on morphology.
3 playdough balls. Roll two of them to cylinder. Roll one cylinder into spiral.
3:30pm, surface/volume ~ radius function. Which figure? Socrative poll.
3:35pm, membrane structure
Summary.
Ecoli negative. Bsu positive.
Resolution and wave length.
Contrast.
Three types: rod, cocci, spirilum.
surfae to volume ratio
membrane structure
Class stoppped at 2.8
Problems: The podium computer windows does not play the video in powerpoint. I had to play them with html files.

Greenfield, sample pbs job scripts
This is an example to run a serial job on Greenfield using PBS:
#!/bin/csh
# Request 15 cores
# Note that this means the job will be allocated 750GB of memory
#PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=15
# Request 5 minutes of cpu time
#PBS -l walltime=30:00
# Combine standard output and error into one file
#PBS -j oe
set echo
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
module load R/3.2.1-mkl
# run my executable
R --vanilla --slave CMD BATCH ./example.R
And here is an example of “packing” several runs in one job,
so that they all run simultaneously. The output files should be all named different:
#!/bin/csh
# Request 15 cores
# Note that this means the job will be allocated 750GB of memory
#PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=15
# Request 5 minutes of cpu time
#PBS -l walltime=30:00
# Combine standard output and error into one file
#PBS -j oe
set echo
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
# Define where /tmp files will be written
setenv TMPDIR $PBS_O_WORKDIR

1pm, 7 students on time. snack reward.
Check "Progress" of EdX R course. Some finished 3-4 labs and problem sets. Some barely did anything.
1:15-1:35, variable assignment problem.
as.character(var1)
var1_chr = var1
var1_chr = as.character(var1)
Spend the rest of class on introduction to aging.
Mentioned Linux and XSEDE HPC at the end of the class.
Note: K Parker helped me with the projector screen (1 bonus point promised).

turn on ssh login in osX
The Apple Mac OS X operating system has SSH installed by default but the SSH daemon is not enabled. This means you can’t login remotely or do remote copies until you enable it.
To enable it, go to ‘System Preferences’. Under ‘Internet & Networking’ there is a ‘Sharing’ icon. Run that. In the list that appears, check the ‘Remote Login’ option.
This starts the SSH daemon immediately and you can remotely login using your username. The ‘Sharing’ window shows at the bottom the name and IP address to use. You can also find this out using ‘whoami’ and ‘ifconfig’ from the Terminal application.

FL is interested in gene network and clustering analysis, and XSEDE HPC.
HHMI fellowship requires biomedical research project.
We agreed on human gene expression analysis.
I asked her to learn R and Unix shell on EdX. FL is not clear why she has to learn R. So, I showed her the EdX course on RNA seq. I explained that she need to learn how to walk with R first.
Topic:
Analysis of biceps brachii muscles from men and women 19 to 28 or 65 to 76 years of age. Results provide insight into the influence of gender on age-related changes in the molecular properties of the skeletal muscle.

In the rest of this document I use the standard Emacs notation to describe keystrokes:- C-x
- For any x, the character Control-x.
- M-x
- For any x, the character Meta-x (see below for more details on Meta characters).
- C-M-x
- For any x, the character Control-Meta-x.
- RET
- The return key (C-m actually).
- SPC
- The space bar.
- ESC
- The escape key, or, equivalently, C-[

bio233, chapter1, Madigan v14
Items needed:
Plastic sheet, pencils, and color markers -> concepts of contrast
Short lecture slides
Go over problems: worst question, virus and ribosomal RNA 85% correct.
Activity:
Contrast demo using plastic sheets. Use color to demonstrate contrast.
Possible discussion questions from Pearson
Q: Why only anaerobic microbes exisit on Earth for the first 2 billion years?
Q: why is it incorrect to say that an object is partially sterile?
Summary of the class. Lessons learned.

Strope15GR used its own strain nominations, even though the strains are obtained from others. This is quite annoying.

In Moodle, first create an appropriate category. Then choose Question Bank, and then import from file, and move these questions into an appropirate category.
To create a quiz, select the questions from the category.
Note: I have not figure out to convert an entire quiz/exam to Moodle.

"Our findings strongly suggest that the low channel capacities previously observed at a single cell level does not reflect an inherent physical limit, but rather a natural trade off between information transfer at the single cell vs. population levels. This implies that the level of noise in individual signaling networks and cells can be regulated to produce reliable information at the level of individuals or populations, depending on the phenotypic requirements of the organism."

Spelman CURE Postdoc position, posted at HighEdJobs in 2015
Spelman College is piloting a postdoctoral fellowship program that combines a traditional
principal-investigator directed postdoctoral research experiences with mentored teaching
experiences. Founded in 1881, Spelman College is a private four-year liberal arts college located in
Atlanta, GA. The oldest historically Black college for women in the United States, Spelman is a
member of the Atlanta University Center Consortium and Atlanta Regional Consortium for Higher
Education.
Eligibility:
(1) Graduate students that will complete their requirements for the Ph.D. prior to the Fellowship start date of June 1, 2015, or Ph.D. scholars who have completed their dissertation within the last three years (on or after August 1, 2012);
(2) Ph.D. must be in an eligible research-based field in STEM to include: Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or a related science discipline. Preference will be given to candidates with interdisciplinary training.
Qualifications: Commitment to a career in teaching and research, experience working with underrepresented groups and interest in the scholarship of undergraduate teaching and learning are highly valued.
Responsibilities: Conduct research within a specific field guided by a designated PI; publish scientific manuscripts under the direction of the PI; help develop investigative-based modules for existing undergraduate science courses; and contribute to the training and mentoring undergraduate research students.
Term: Postdoctoral awards may be up to three years (36 consecutive months), given continued successful progress.
Review of applications will begin immediately with a material's received and closing deadline of March 13, 2015.
Competitive salary and an excellent benefits program are available. To apply for the position, please upload: a letter of interest, including job code, which identifies the position sought; curriculum vitae (with contact information); a one-page statement of teaching philosophy; statement of scholarly, creative or research interests.
Applicants selected for further review will be required to provide official undergraduate and graduate school transcripts, as well as three letters of recommendation sent directly from the referee or dossier. Address all referee or dossier letters to: Spelman College, Provost Faculty Human Resources Office, Attn: Ms. Karla H. Williams, Manager of Faculty Human Resources, 350 Spelman Lane, SW, Box 1209, Atlanta, GA 30314.

=> rule based modeling http://bionetgen.org/index.php/Q-bio-14
bionetgen use matlab for parameter estimation. The .m files can be converted to .c file for faster computing needs. Some kind of simulated annealing approach seems to be used.
Currently, rule-based modeling has not been applied to spatial modeling. "Everything is coded to ODEs".
