The molecular wire consists of a semiconducting conjugated polymer supramolecularly encapsulated (i.e. with no covalent bonds) into cyclodextrin macrocycles (in green). This class of organic functional materials gives highly controllable optical properties and higher luminescence efficiency when employed as the active layer in light-emitting diodes. The supramolecular shield prevents potentially detrimental intermolecular interactions and preserves single-molecule photophysics even at high concentration.

The telescope has a 24-inch lens to focus the light, and like all such instruments brings light of different colours to a focus at slightly different distances from the lens. The best-focus position for each colour is determined by placing a mask with a circular pattern of holes over the lens, and images through red, green, and blue filters are taken at several focus positions; the mask produces separate images of the star in each out-of-focus colour, with the colour in best focus being more concentrated towards the central spot. Hence, each ‘petal’ of the `flower’ is Castor’s spectral image, dispersed by the telescope lens.

LP,NE,SK Developments in Data Exchange Summary Report of an IAEA Consultants Meeting IAEA Headquarters, Vienna, Austria 28-29 July 2016 Prepared by Hyun-Kyung Chung and Bastiaan J. Braams Abstract A Consultancy Meeting on Developments in Data exchange was held on 28 and 29 July 2016 with six external participants and IAEA staff. The meeting was called to help guide the database work of A+M Data Unit over the next 7 years or so. We see increased emphasis on very large datasets containing relatively unprocessed data all backed up by new technologies for data analysis; keywords here are machine learning, Gaussian processes and polynomial chaos. In the area of calculated A+M data this may lead us towards very different databases than we have now; for example storing full scattering matrices and not just integrated cross sections, and in addition storing enough calculated data to allow simulations to include uncertainty propagation.

    Virt&l-Comm.3.2012.1 A MODERN APPROACH TO AB INITIO COMPUTING IN CHEMISTRY, MOLECULAR AND MATERIALS SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGIES ANTONIO LAGANA’, DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY, UNIVERSITY OF PERUGIA, PERUGIA (IT)* ABSTRACT In this document we examine the present situation of Ab initio computing in Chemistry and Molecular and Materials Science and Technologies applications. To this end we give a short survey of the most popular quantum chemistry and quantum (as well as classical and semiclassical) molecular dynamics programs and packages. We then examine the need to move to higher complexity multiscale computational applications and the related need to adopt for them on the platform side cloud and grid computing. On this ground we examine also the need for reorganizing. The design of a possible roadmap to establishing a Chemistry Virtual Research Community is then sketched and some examples of Chemistry and Molecular and Materials Science and Technologies prototype applications exploiting the synergy between competences and distributed platforms are illustrated for these applications the middleware and work habits into cooperative schemes and virtual research communities (part of the first draft of this paper has been incorporated in the white paper issued by the Computational Chemistry Division of EUCHEMS in August 2012) INTRODUCTION The computational chemistry (CC) community is made of individuals (academics, affiliated to research institutions and operators of chemistry related companies) carrying out computational research in Chemistry, Molecular and Materials Science and Technology (CMMST). It is to a large extent registered into the CC division (DCC) of the European Chemistry and Molecular Science (EUCHEMS) Society and is connected to other chemistry related organizations operating in Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, Chemometrics, Omics-sciences, Medicinal chemistry, Forensic chemistry, Food chemistry, etc.

  • Identifying and Appraising Promising Sources of UK Clinical, Health and Social Care Data for Use by NICE
    EPPI-Centre Identifying and appraising promising sources of UK clinical, health and social care data for use by NICE Executive Summary Dylan Kneale, Meena Khatwa, James Thomas EPPI-Centre Social Science Research Unit UCL Institute of Education University College London September 2016 Identifying and appraising promising sources of UK clinical, health and social care data for use by NICE This is a summary of key findings from a report prepared by the Evidence for Policy and Practice Information and Co-ordinating Centre (EPPI-Centre), UCL Institute of Education for the NICE Science Policy and Research Programme. The full report contains additional details of the EPPI- Centre’s findings. The views expressed here are those of the authors and not necessarily those of NICE, the EPPI-Centre, or any of the stakeholders involved in this research (see acknowledgements section for a list). All data were correct as of August 2015 and any errors and inaccuracies are the sole responsibility of the authors. Executive Summary Introduction Understanding the topography of this real-world data landscape is of prime interest to NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) in this study, as well as gaining a snapshot of the key areas of debate in the field. Specifically NICE seeks to understand the way in which different real-world data sources could help to support NICE to realise its strategic objectives and to this end, NICE has identified five key uses of real-world data that can help the organisation meet its overall strategic objectives. These are to: (a) Research the effectiveness of interventions or practice in real-world (UK) settings (e.g.
