Left Shark Renovation Project

🇺🇸 · Milwaukee Makerspace · Kirch, Anna

When the Milwaukee Makerspace was new, we relied on donations and hand-me-downs for a lot of our equipment. In 2015, member Tom Gondek lent us a ULS V460 laser that he had used for one project. That project happened to be cutting PVC! It was his laser, so he can do what he wants with it. So when we received the laser, it was pretty corroded. We ended up buying this laser off of him after it caught fire. Very surprisingly, this did not make the V-460 inoperable. It chugged away through a few fires, through corrosion, through heavy rail damage from lack of cleaning, through the air assist cone not staying on, through shot springs on the x-axis…in other words, this laser has seen some sh*t. Since this laser came to us in 2015, the year of the famous/infamous super bowl show with Katy Perry, Hapto (Sarah Davitt) came up with the name “Left Shark” for the laser. Lets face it: Left Shark was simply *not* member’s favorite laser. Between not being able to go over 60% speed, the honeycomb being…for lack of a better word: wonky, and the cone not staying on…oh, and lets not fo

Mapping the Mind: Insights into fMRI Brain Dynamics in Schizophrenia

🇺🇸 · Baltimore's Under Ground Science Space (BUGSS) · BUGSS

Brain connectivity represents the functional organization of the brain, which is an important indicator for evaluating neuropsychiatric disorders and treatment effects. Schizophrenia is associated with impaired functional connectivity, but characterizing the complex abnormality patterns has been challenging. A common symptom of schizophrenia is auditory hallucinations, which involve false perceptions in the absence of external stimuli. Cognitive models suggest that a combination of cognitive processes contribute to auditory hallucinations. Janerra Allen, a graduate researcher at UMBC, joined us to discuss her work using resting-state and task-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data to measure functional connectivity in the brain in schizophrenia patients and healthy controls to extract disease-related connectivity patterns. This work demonstrates the promise of identifying brain features related to specific clinical aspects of schizophrenia . This will not only support future treatment development for modifying connectivity, but also offer perspectives for und
