3 Student Life KCBC 150 Challenge

As current members of Keble College’s Boat Club (KCBC), we had hoped to engage the College and its alumni with various rowing-themed events to celebrate Keble’s 150th anniversary. It was meant to be a year of extravagance and excitement; our boat club was poised to re-capture head of KCBC 150 CHALLENGE the river at Oxford’s annual Summer VIII’s rowing regatta. Gearing up for Michaelmas 2020 after a long and quiet summer, we felt it DAY 7 STANDINGS was necessary to start our academic year with the same level of enthusiasm that we had pre-COVID. In order to commemorate Keble’s 150th birthday, we organized a KCBC 150 km Challenge for both alumni and current members. A total of 26 men and women (including 7 alumni), scattered across the globe, were randomly split into thirteen teams of two and were tasked to complete 150 km-equivalent of exercise via rowing, running or cycling. What started off as a friendly sport event soon developed into a fiercely competitive event with the goal of putting as many kilometres in the books after seven days. Half-way through the week, four teams had already hit the 150 km mark. The second half of the week was even more exciting. Capitalizing on the beautiful weather, participants planned long cycles and brisk runs touring the countryside and steady rows around Godstow. Pictures were posted daily on our Instagram and Facebook accounts along the way with the hashtag “KCBC150”. By Day 6, 11 out of 13 teams hit the 150 km mark. With one day remaining, all teams began the final push. Competition for the top spot was intense between “Big Dog, Little Dog” and the “Big Rig Silk Merchants”. In the end, all 13 teams had surpassed the 150 km mark with CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL TEAMS the “Big Rig Silk Merchants” (439.6 km) coming in first by less than 1 km!

4 the keble review 2020 From the KA

The Keble Association (KA) kicked off its centenary year in high spirits at the London Dinner on February 1st at a joint celebration also marking the 150th Anniversary of the College. As alumni old and new gathered with current students and grant recipients to hear about activities made possible through our grants, few could have foreseen the role the KA would go on to have Ducks enjoying an uncharacteristically quiet spring in front of the US Capitol (l).

Live @ The Hive

Hearing the incredible voice of Jon Boden, former lead singer of Bellowhead and one of the UK’s best known folk artists, echoing in Newman quad was simply wonderful. And the mighty cheers for our fantastic Keble performers (Liz Page, Elizabeth Clayton, Anushka Shah) lifted everyone’s spirits. You could feel that the whole Keble community was united, not only in person but also online, where more than 2,000 viewers joined via a YouTube livestream. The first Live @ The Hive was a great success. ‘The Hive’—a series of hexagonal tents sponsored by the KA which interlock to form a giant marquee in Newman Quad—is a new addition to Keble providing study and social space for students whilst conforming to social distancing guidelines. This event was just the beginning. With a programme of gigs, comedies, and musical performances for every taste, the Live @ The Hive series is going to be the social heart of the Keble community for the upcoming year.

The letter was scrawled into a book, and means of man’s salvation) across both the Old and New Testament. written by an obscure New Englander named Edward Holyoke From this perspective, circumcision in the Old Testament and (1585–1660). Holyoke had dated and signed his letter, but baptism in the New performed fundamentally the same service (to referred to the addressee simply as a ‘speciall man in New England’. mark a person’s entrance into God’s covenant) and so had to be Holyoke had heard that this ‘speciall man’ had rejected infant equivalent, including in their administration to infants. In contrast baptism and wrote to beg him to change his mind, noting his to this, anabaptists argued that the Old and New Testament were high ‘calling, place [and] estieme’ and emphasising the danger his essentially different covenants, and so rejected any analogy between heterodoxy posed to American society. Holyoke had transcribed his circumcision and baptism—including their parallel administration letter into a printed book as a warning to posterity that no one was to infants. The rejection of this analogy was central to anabaptist safe from theological error. argumentation, for with the circumcision-baptism analogy dismissed there was little biblical evidence in favour of baptising infants. Thus, I managed to establish that Holyoke’s ‘speciall man’ was the first for the first one hundred years after the Reformation, anabaptist President of Harvard University, Henry Dunster, whose refusal to covenant theology was, in its core assumptions, incompatible with baptise his fourth child in autumn 1653 created a controversy mainstream reformed covenant theology. so ferocious that it would end with the University authorities and Massachusetts magistrates forcing Dunster’s resignation from However, by the early seventeenth century, things were changing.

Examining his as being as scandalous as if 1930s–50s Harvard President James manuscripts, preserved in Harvard’s Houghton Library and the Bryant Conant had declared himself a communist.

The problem is that the classic explanation for show that he was swayed by such arguments, and came to view anabaptism’s mid-seventeenth century spread cannot account for anabaptism as the logical end-point of contemporary covenant someone of Dunster’s stature.

For instance, imagine that we have about 5,000 computer can understand statements such as ‘every playwright is an playwrights such as Douglas Adams in our knowledge graph. If we author’, and ‘if a person is born in a town located in a given country, want all of them to be authors (and we certainly do!), we would then this is the person’s country of birth’. Once such information need to add explicit edges in the graph connecting the node for each has been unambiguously represented in a suitable language (usually individual playwright to the node representing the concept of an a kind of formal logic), KRR systems can then be used to process ‘author’ in the graph; that is 5,000 edges to be manually added. And data in a more intelligent way. For example, if our data tells us that not only that, if suddenly we notice a mistake in our data (maybe Douglas Adams is a playwright born in Cambridge and Cambridge ‘john smith’ is not a playwright after all) then we would need to also is located in the UK, then a computer program would be able to remove all the edges that depend on that mistake (that is, the fact automatically deduce that Douglas Adams is a UK-born author. that ‘john smith’ is an author, which was only true because he was The role of ‘reasoning’ is to algorithmically find out this implicit believed to be a playwright).

During severe COVID-19, this SWAT response is Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), observed in the form of something called a cytokine storm. This which is the cause of COVID-19 disease, has been both Herculean is when large amounts of extremely pro-inflammatory proteins and lightspeed in nature.

Although initially alarming because of SARS’s 10% fatality rate, this discovery has enabled us to leapfrog One potential source for these proteins are the macrophage and take giant shortcuts in time-consuming and difficult research, cells that we as a lab work on. While theoretically these cells including identifying what cell types allow replication of the virus, should not be infected by the virus, there have been reports of identifying the structure of the viral spike protein required to enter virus seen inside them. One worry is that the virus is entering the cell, and, based on this, finding potential candidate vaccines these cells due to a phenomenon called antibody-dependent for the virus.

In this scenario, antibodies produced by our viruses could be forgiven for thinking these things are routine. immune response that fail to fully neutralise the virus actually However, in comparison, despite years of research, it is still aid entry of the virus into macrophages due to receptors on unclear exactly which cells in the body are infected by Norovirus, the surface of these cells for the antibody. This phenomenon is an extremely infectious common virus also known as the ‘winter responsible for the haemorrhagic fever during repeat infections of vomiting bug’, and we struggle to efficiently replicate this virus Dengue virus and therefore it is not a stretch of the imagination in the lab. Likewise, the rapid identification of vaccine candidates for this to be consistent with severe COVID-19. is extraordinary, especially when we consider how two other pandemic viruses that we have known about for decades, Human Immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV), are still years away from vaccination. The scientific response has been global, with institutions from China to the USA, and Australia to the UK all playing essential roles. Within the UK, front and foremost has been the University of Oxford with its potential vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 produced by the labs of Professor Sarah Gilbert and Professor Andrew Pollard. However, while the vaccine continues to make worldwide headlines, Oxford is playing a far broader role in the fight against SARS-CoV-2. Much of the work is taking place inside Biosafety level 3 (BSL3) labs around Oxford like the one run by the James lab (of which I am part) at the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology. As the UK went into lockdown, our lab, and many others, started work on screening potential drugs and antibody Human lung cancer cells (black) and macrophages (red) in (human and llama) therapies against the virus and investigating co-culture.
