Philip Epstein, an NMHM Chicago consultant and neuro researcher, will be at the Leica Biosystems booth speaking about this remarkable app and demonstrating ways it is revolutionizing global neuroscience research, including the use of Aperio ePathology image sharing and image analysis products.
Originally designed for viewing on the iPad, the app will be displayed on a 60-inch touchscreen inside the booth, allowing visitors to interact with hundreds of life-size, ultra-high resolution digital slides of the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Albert Einstein's neuroanatomy via virtual microscope technology called Vscope.ĭr. Researchers are taking another look at the design as an eco-friendly alternative to air conditioning and refrigeration.SAN DIEGO, CA and CHICAGO, IL-(Marketwired - Nov 6, 2013) - The National Museum of Health and Medicine Chicago's Einstein Brain Atlas iPad app has been transformed into a life-size interactive device that will be on display in the Leica Biosystems booth at Neuroscience 2013, the premier annual neuroscience conference held by the Society for Neuroscience in San Diego, November 9 th-13 th. Instead of cooling the interior of the refrigerator with Freon, as we do today, Einstein's design uses ammonia, butane, water - and almost no energy. Einstein developed a refrigerator design that received a U.S. Scientists are still finding new uses for Einstein's work today. Einstein was saddened when he heard of the destruction caused by the two nuclear bombs dropped on Japan, and later campaigned for a ban on nuclear weapons. His suggestions led to the creation of the Manhattan Project - and the first two atomic bombs it spawned - in 1945. Roosevelt that this application of scientific knowledge could lead to Germany's development of an atomic bomb and he urged the United States to begin its own research. In 1939, Einstein learned that two German chemists had split the uranium atom he wrote to U.S. He also supported Zionism, the idea of the creation of a homeland for Jews in Palestine. Peaceful by nature and politics, he spoke out strongly against nationalism, war and violence. What happened after this extremely productive year? Find out on the next page.Įinstein left his homeland in Germany in 1933 upon Adolf Hitler's rise to power, and accepted a position at the Institute of Advanced Study in Princeton, N.J. This forms much of the basis for nuclear energy. This formula demonstrates that a small particle of matter contains an enormous amount of energy.
The fourth paper expanded on this idea with the famous equation E = mc2, relating mass and energy. Einstein explained that time and motion are relative to their observers - as long as the speed of light remains constant and natural laws are the same throughout the universe. Television is a practical application of Einstein's theory of light. He also explained the photoelectric effect, which is the emission of electrons from some solids when they're struck by light. Einstein proposed that light is composed of separate packets of energy, called - quanta or photons - that have some properties of particles and some properties of waves. Einstein's findings helped to prove the existence of atoms and molecules.
