    Workshop Lecture Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry 96 (2003) 3 Structural Genomics Antonio Rosato, Magnetic Resonance Center, University of Florence, Italy To realize the true value of the wealth of data provided by genome sequencing data, it is necessary to relate them to the functional properties of the proteins they encode. Since the biological function of a protein is determined by its 3D structure, the systematic determination of proteins’ structures on a genome-wide scale is a crucial step in any (post-)genomic effort, which may (or may not) provide initial hints on the function. This is what is commonly referred to as ‘Structural Genomics’ (or Structural Proteomics). Because of the huge number of systems into question, all the complex steps necessary for structure determination must be optimized, streamlined and, possibly, robotized in order to shrink the time needed to solve each protein structure. This approach is dubbed ‘high-throughput’ (HTP) and is an intrinsic feature of Structural Genomics. What can be the relationship between Biological Inorganic Chemistry and Structural Genomics? A major challenge is that to reconcile the concept of HTP with the care that metalloproteins most often require because of their metal cofactors. The identifi cation of metalloproteins is even not explicitly taken into account in purely Structural Genomics projects, nor is any methodology particularly developed for them. To create true correlations between Biological Inorganic Chemistry and Structural Genomics it is necessary to develop new computational tools (e.g. to identify metalloproteins in databanks, or to correctly model their structures), as well as new methodological approaches to HTP metalloprotein expression/purifi cation and structural characterization.

Student number: 4275780 Project duration: September 16, 2018 – August 28, 2019 Supervisor: Dr. S. J. Hulshoff, TU Delft Thesis committee: Dr. R. P.Dwight, TU Delft Dr. B. Chen, TU Delft An electronic version of this thesis is available at http://repository.tudelft.nl/. Cover image: The Starry Night, Vincent van Gogh Abstract Today’s leading projections of climate change predicate on atmospheric General Circulation Models (GCMs). Since the atmosphere consists of a staggering range of scales that impact global trends, but computational constraints prevent many of these scales from being directly represented in numerical simulations, GCMs require “parameterisations” - models for the influence of unresolved processes on the resolved scales. State- of-the-art parameterisations are commonly based on combinations of phenomenological arguments and physics, and are of considerably lower fidelity than the resolved simulation. In particular, the parameter- isation of low-altitude stratocumulus clouds that result from small-scale processes in sub-tropical marine boundary layers is widely considered the largest source of uncertainty that remains in contemporary GCMs’ prediction of the temperature response to a global increase in CO2. Improvements in the capacity of machine learning algorithms and the increasing availability of high- fidelity datasets from global satellite data and local Large Eddy Simulations (LES) have identified data-driven parameterisations as a high-potential option to break the deadlock.

Emanuel Professor of Atmospheric Science Massachusetts Institute of Technology email: [email protected] website: http://eaps4.mit.edu/faculty/Emanuel/ Dr. Kerry A. Emanuel | Climate Science and Climate Risk: A Primer 1 Considerably more than 90% percent of climate scientists attribute the bulk of the increase in global mean temperature over the past three to four decades to the anthropogenic increase in atmospheric greenhouse gases that commenced with the Industrial Revolution.1 The great majority of these scientists hold that continued warming presents significant risks to humankind over the coming centuries. What scientific evidence led the scientific community to these conclusions? How robust is that evidence? To what extent should we trust uncertain projections of future climate change based on complicated global climate models? How do we deal with climate change as a problem of risk assessment and management? his essay summarizes the most important lines of not fit within the existing scientific framework. Scientists T evidence for anthropogenic climate change, confronts then try to repeat and improve on the observation to some of the stickier questions behind uncertainty in determine whether it really is an outlier. Next, they may pose climate projections, and concludes with a discussion of the one or more hypotheses to explain the observation, and if a particular risks entailed by climate change and how they are hypothesis succeeds in explaining not only that observation being quantified. but others as well, and especially if it successfully predicts The essay is structured as follows. First, a brief history of what has not yet been observed, the hypothesis may advance climate science reveals that the most important principles to the status of a theory.

THE ASCENT OF MOUNT FAIRWEATHER by ALLEN CARPE We were returning from the expedition to Mount Logan in 1925. Homeward bound, our ship throbbed lazily across the Gulf of Alaska toward Cape Spencer. Between reefs of low fog we saw the frozen monolith of St. Elias, rising as it were sheer out of the water, its foothills and the plain of the Malaspina Glacier hidden behind the visible sphere of the sea. Clouds shrouded the heights of the Fairweather Range as we entered Icy Strait and touched at Port Althorp for a cargo of salmon; but I felt then the challenge of this peak which was now perhaps the outstanding un­ climbed mOUlitain in America, lower but steeper than St. Elias, and standing closer to tidewater than any other summit of comparable height in the world. Dr. William Sargent Ladd proved a kindred spirit, and in the early summer of 1926 We two, with Andrew Taylor, made an attempt on the mountain. Favored by exceptional weather, we reached a height of 9,000 feet but turned back Photo by Bradford Washburn when a great cleft intervened between the but­ tresses we had climbed and the northwest ridge Mount Fairweather from the Coast Range at 2000 feet of the peak.

FIRST ASCENT OF THE EAST PEAK OF MOUNT LOGAN by GILBERT ROBERTS Mount Logon. North America's second highest peak at 19,850 feet, is also one of the world's largest mountain masses. Located in the wildest part of the St. Elias Range, it has seen little mountaineering activity. In 1925, the first ascent was accomplished by a route from the Ogilvie Glacier which gained the long ridge leading to the summit from King Col. This ascent had gone down as one of the great efforts in mountaineering history. McCarthy, Foster, Lambert, Carpe, Read, and Taylor ulti- mately reached the central summit after months of effort including the relaying of loads by dog sled in the long Yukon winter--a far cry from the age of the air drop.
