• AutoDoc: Automated Documentation of Empirical Research​

  

  Partners: Sebastian Musslick and Younes Strittmatter SSEC Engineer: Carlos Garcia Jurado Suarez, Anuj Sinha, and Rashmika Reddy Research Goals and Domain Reproducibility is a foundational pillar of the scientific process. However, numerous empirical studies in behavioral research are difficult to replicate due to inadequate and opaque documentation of their research steps. AutoRA is a collection…

• ProSpecPy: Processing FTIR Spectroscopy Data

  

  Partner: Elizabeth Phillips SSEC Engineer: Anshul Tambay, Anuradha Ramachandran, and Eric Xue Research Goals and Domain Hydrogenases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the reversible reduction of protons to hydrogen. They are extremely efficient, with turnover frequencies that rival the most efficient metal catalysts (Pt or Pd), using earth abundant metals (Ni or Fe)…

• SSEC Learnathon 2023

  

  By: Juliana Kilty, SSEC Student Assistant The Scientific Software Engineering Center (SSEC) held their first Learnathon from September 5th-7th this fall. Participants had the opportunity to explore topics in three general categories: tools, infrastructures, and processes. The Learnathon was conducted in tutorial style, led by SSEC team members with specific expertise. These informative presentations enabled…

• NoisePy: Ambient Field Seismology

  

  Partners: Marine Denolle, Yiyu Ni, and Kuan-Fu Feng SSEC Engineers: Carlos Garcia Jurado Suarez and Ishika Khandelwal Research Goals and Domain The Earth’s ambient field contains a great deal of information about its structure. Changes in this structure occur at a vast range of temporal and spatial scales. We can record these changes thanks to…

• Wet AI: Collaborative Neurobiology

  

  Partners: David Haussler, Matt Elliot, David Parks, and Lon Blauvelt SSEC Engineers: Cordero Core and Don Setiawan Research Goals and Domain Cerebral organoids are synthetic tissues derived from induced or natural stem cells within a laboratory setting. Once they are differentiated, these structures offer an avenue for researchers and students to probe and stimulate neural…

• Offshore Geodesy: Advancing Research and Collaboration in Seafloor Deformation​

  

  Partners: David Schmidt and John DeSanto SSEC Engineers: Don Setiawan and Madhav Kashyap Research Goals and Domain The Near-Trench Community Geodetic Experiment, is a five-year NSF-funded project aimed at establishing open and accessible seafloor deformation data in the Alaska and Cascadia regions, both notorious for witnessing some of the largest earthquakes and tsunamis in recorded…

• Python for Humanities: an Intro for Researchers

  

  By: Louisa Gaylord Last week the eScience Institute and UW Libraries Open Scholarship Commons co-hosted a workshop called “Python, your personal research assistant” for participants studying the humanities to explore the Python programming language and how to use it as a tool to aid in qualitative humanities work. Led by eScience Technical Education Specialist Naomi…
