There's a flood of reports about college students
Ohio State leans into 'AI fluency' for the class of 2029. apparently using AI to cheat their way through college, and debating whether or not that's the actual problem. Now, NBC4 in Columbus points out Ohio State's new AI Fluency plan that targets the class of 2029 (with some level of assumptions that our current view of generative AI will still be relevant by then), focusing on a few steps: All undergraduates will be introduced to generative AI basics in the required General Education Launch Seminar. GenAI workshops will be integrated into the First Year Success Series. The new 'Unlocking Generative AI' course will be offered and open to all majors.

Registration now open for Spring Pharmaceutical Synchrotron XRPD Workshop
Meet us at Argonne National Laboratory, May 12-13 WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., March 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Spring Synchrotron X-Ray Powder Diffraction (SPS-XRPD) Workshops are a collaborative initiative led by Excelsus Structural Solutions (Switzerland), Purdue University, Argonne National Laboratory, and Improved Pharma (USA). These workshops serve as a platform for experts from the pharmaceutical industry and the Synchrotron X-Ray Powder Diffraction community to address key challenges in pharmaceutical R&D, explore the latest advancements in synchrotron XRPD, and discuss cutting-edge applications. In 2024, the SPS-XRPD Workshop was held at the prestigious Novartis Pharma Campus in Basel, marking a significant milestone as Novartis Pharma officially joined the Organizing Committee. To accommodate a broad international audience, the workshops alternate annually between the USA and Switzerland. Participants engage in discussions on critical topics, including phase identification and stability assessments, structural characterization, prediction and modelling, quantification of crystalline phases, even in trace amounts. A special session covers the Pair Distribution Function method for characterizing amorphous and nano-crystalline formulations The 2025 SPS-XRPD Workshop will introduce an exciting new theme: Pharmaceutical Crystallization and Characterization Under Non-Standard Conditions. This includes an exploration of microgravity crystallization in space, opening new frontiers in structural studies. Join us for insightful discussions, cutting-edge research, and a unique opportunity to connect with experts shaping the future of pharmaceutical materials science.
