Leidenfrost Dynamics: Supplemental Video 8
A supplemental video from the 2013 review by David Quéré Leidenfrost Dynamics" from the Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics.
Rebounds on a water drop on a hot solid at Weber numbers larger than unity: Rebounds are less elastic and strong vibrations are generated by the impacts. Credits: Anne-Laure Biance Christophe Clanet and David Quéré.
Leidenfrost Dynamics: Supplemental Video 9
A supplemental video from the 2013 review by David Quéré "Leidenfrost Dynamics" from the Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics.
Impact of a water drop at We = 16 on a solid at 300°C. Although the temperature is much higher than the static Leidenfrost temperature (about 160°C) contact exists between the solid and liquid at impact as revealed by the intense production of droplets. (This corresponds to the contact-boiling-regime data in Figure 8.) Credits: Tuan Tran and Detlef Lohse.
Leidenfrost Dynamics: Supplemental Video 10
A supplemental video from the 2013 review by David Quéré "Leidenfrost Dynamics" from the Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics.
Impact of a water drop at We = 16 on a solid at 380°C. The droplet ejection is no longer observed: This defines a dynamical Leidenfrost situation in which there is no contact with the plate despite the impact. (This corresponds to the film-boiling-regime data in Figure 8.) Credits: Tuan Tran and Detlef Lohse.
An Interview with Karen Strier
Karen Strier Professor of Anthropology at the University of Wisconsin at Madison and Editorial Committee Member of the Annual Review of Anthropology talks to Anna Rascouët-Paz about her work with the northern muriqui monkeys of Brazil. Dr. Strier studies muriquis as a model of comparison with other primates and she contributes to conservation efforts as they are one of the world's most criticially endangered species. She also discusses her article for the 2008 volume of this journal "The Effects of Kin on Primate Life Histories." (Posted February 4 2013)

Leidenfrost Dynamics: Supplemental Video 11
A supplemental video from the 2013 review by David Quéré "Leidenfrost Dynamics" from the Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics.
Impact of a water drop at We = 16 on a solid at 500°C. Tiny droplets are ejected above the thin film that forms at impact. (This corresponds to the spraying-film-boiling regime in Figure 8.) Credits: Tuan Tran and Detlef Lohse.

Approaching a piece of dry ice from a hot ratchet on which glass beads were deposited shows that the flow vapor is rectified by the ratchet: It mainly takes place in the direction toward the step which suggests that the Leidenfrost body above is entrained by the vapor flow (viscous entrainment).

A Conversation with Donald B. McCormick
In this episode Dr. Donald B. McCormick Callaway Prof. Emeritus of Biochemistry at the School of Medicine of Emory University in Atlanta talks about his life and career with Dr. Al Merrill Professor and Smithgall Chair in Molecular Cell Biology at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Dr. Barbara Bowman Associate Director for Science at the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion in Atlanta and Associate Editor of the Annual Review of Nutrition. Dr. McCormick describes the path from his childhood in Oak Ridge TN to becoming an eminent authority on vitamins.
A Conversation with Paul Greengard
Dr. Eric Nestler talks with Dr. Paul Greengard about his scientific career for the Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology.
A Conversation with Carl Djerassi
Carl Djerassi Professor Emeritus of Chemistry at Stanford University talks about his life and career with Roger Kornberg Editor of the Annual Review of Biochemistry and Professor at the Department of Structural Biology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. In this interview part of the AR Conversations series he explains how he went from being a high school student in Vienna escaping the Nazi regime to developing the first birth-control pill in Mexico. Eventually he oversaw the development of insecticide-free pest control products which prevented insects from reaching sexual maturity. And yet were he to do it all again he would not major in pure chemistry but in chemistry as it applies to physics or biology where he believes the future lies.
Ecdysone Receptors: From the Ashburner Model to Structural Biology: Supplemental Video 1
A supplemental video from the 2013 review by Ronald J. Hill Isabelle M.L. Billas François Bonneton Lloyd D. Graham and Michael C. Lawrence "Ecdysone Receptors: From the Ashburner Model to Structural Biology" from the Annual Review of Entomology.
This movie depicts schematically the structural transitions within the ligand binding domain of the Heliothis virescens ecdysone receptor EcR from the conformation binding ecdysteroid (PonA green carbon and red oxygen atoms) to the conformation binding a dibenzoylhydrazine insecticide (BYI06830 black carbon red oxygen and blue nitrogen atoms) and then back again. The N and C termini of the receptor domain are denoted by blue and red spheres respectively. Most features of secondary structure remain effectively unchanged during the transition with the following notable exceptions. The β-sheet (gold) between helices H5 and H6 is disrupted as a concomitant of rotation of two aromatic residues (phenylalanine and tyrosine) to fill the space vacated by the steroid nucleus when the ecdysteroid ligand is replaced by the dibenzoylhydrazine insecticide. Helix H2 (pink) unwinds while helices H7 and H10 (purple) move apart to accommodate the insecticide. To aid interpretation the two ligands are depicted as transitioning from opaque (present) to fully transparent (absent).
Systems- and Trans-Systems-Level Analysis of Iron Deficiency Responses
Dr. Sabeeha Merchant Editor of the Annual Review of Plant Biology gave a talk titled "Systems- and Trans-Systems-Level Analysis of Iron Deficiency Responses" at the Trends and Advances in Plant Biology Symposium Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center on Oct. 19 2012. This is a recording of that talk.
Lecture in Genomics and Human Genetics: Understanding Transmissible Cancer in Tasmanian Devils
Dr. Katherine Belov Professor of Comparative Genomics at the Faculty of Veterinary Science of the University of Sydney and contributing author of the 2012 Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics talks about her article "A Comparative Genomics Approach to Understanding Transmissible Cancer in Tasmanian Devils" which she co-wrote with Dr. Janine E. Deakin ARC Future Fellow at the Research School of Biology at the Australian National University. In this lecture Prof. Belov discusses the origins of the Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD) a transmissible cancer that has already caused the disappearance of 85 percent of the species and could lead to its extinction in the wild within 25 years. She explains what is known of the tumor based on its genomics why it is transmitted between animals without causing immune recognition in the devils and what are the conservation efforts to save the species from extinction.
