چکیده

Major accomplishments of the NSF FIBR Computable Plant project for the partial year from 9/2003 through 5/2004 can be categorized as experimental, computational, and outreach-related. Experimental accomplishments include the purchase and installation of a dedicated confocal laser scanning microscope for live plant imaging (Figure 1), the development of improved imaging techniques including GFP (Green Flourescent Protein) variants and floral meristem primordium markers, the creation of 3D and 4D image data sets bearing on Shoot Apical Meristem (SAM) morphogenesis and cell division, and the discovery of coordinated patterns of cell division in the floral primorida of the SAM. Computing accomplishments include the creation and maintenance of the web site www.computableplant.org, the development of models and simulations exploring mechanisms for phyllotaxis compatible with auxin/PIN1 regulatory interactions and with expression data, the design and prototyping of new simulation software which will in the future allow exchange of developmental models between research groups, and progress towards the formulation of a next-generation “beveled polyhedron” modeling framework for the interaction of biomechanics and regulatory networks. We have also initiated an outreach program (www.outreach.caltech.edu/computableplant) that will host its first teacher workshop at the Huntington Botanical Gardens in August 2004.

Public health management of increased incidence of meningococcal disease in the Australian Capital Territory: 2003 to 2004.

This paper describes a sudden increase of meningococcal notifications in the Australian Capital Territory within a 3 month period, and the public health strategies used to manage it. There were 15 cases of meningococcal disease notified to the Communicable Disease Control (CDC) section, Australian Capital Territory Health (ACT Health), between 6 November 2003 and 5 February 2004. This was much ...
