Christine Ortiz named director of MIT Technology and Policy Program
Christine Ortiz, the Morris Cohen Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at MIT, has been named the next director of the MIT Technology and Policy Program (TPP).
“Christine is a force of nature,” says Fotini Christia, the Ford International Professor of the Social Sciences and director of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS), which houses TPP. “Her years of service to the Institute, her support of grad students in particular, her research focus on innovation and the social good, and her network of connections across academia, industry, and government all make her the right leader for the program. At a time when technology has become such a critical part in informing evidence-based policy, I am confident that Christine will take TPP to the next level.”
Ortiz is a professor, engineer, scientist, entrepreneur, former dean, corporate board director, and foundation trustee. She is an internationally recognized researcher in biotechnology and biomaterials, advanced and additive manufacturing, and sustainable and socially-directed materials design. She has over 30 years of experience in science, engineering, research and development, and technology innovation. She has published more than 210 publications and supervised the research projects of more than 300 students, postdocs, and researchers from 60 different majors and disciplines. She has received more than 30 national and international honors, including the Presidential Early Career Award in Science and Engineering.
Ortiz served as dean for graduate education for MIT between 2010 and 2016, supporting all MIT graduate programs and more than 8,000 graduate students, where she led new initiatives in global education, educational technologies, and mentorship. She founded the nonprofit higher education and research institution Station 1 Laboratory Inc. (Station1), which is focused on socially-directed science and technology education, research, and innovation and maintains national and global reach.
Through her work at MIT and Station1, Ortiz has led the development of programs involving collaborations with more than 100 technology-focused startup companies and social enterprises. She serves on the board of directors of two public companies, Mueller Water Products (a water infrastructure and technology company) and Enovis (a medical technology company); is a member of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Apprenticeship Council and the MIT Museum Advisory Board; and is a trustee of the Essex County Community Foundation in Massachusetts.
“I am deeply honored to take on the role of director of the TPP program, and inspired by its focus and impressive legacy of contributions related to the integration of responsible technological innovation, policy, community, and societal impact,” says Ortiz. “I look forward to supporting and advancing the TPP mission and collaborating with the incredible TPP students, faculty, alumni, and partners involved in this important and transformative work.”

high_octane_RIAA PRE HI FI BASSO RUMORE CON FET MOS TRANSISTOR Questo è lo schema del pre phono ad alto numero di ottani.
Forse avrei dovuto dire prima che non rispetta affatto le attuali regole di "buona" progettazione di circuiti: usa bjt invece di jfet RIAA attiva invece di una passiva un feedback piuttosto negativo invece di eseguire un ciclo aperto Almeno utilizza un regolatore shunt come alimentatore😉
Può essere inserito in una scatola grande 10x8cm. Il punto di partenza per questo circuito single ended è un circuito a 3 transistor di HP Walker e risale agli anni '60. Ci sono alcune informazioni anche nel libro di Douglas Self sulla progettazione di piccoli segnali!
A margine, il regolatore shunt opamp con le sue eccellenti prestazioni è originariamente di Ovidiu (sinestesia) e il particolare schema di compensazione della frequenza di Edmond Stuart.
I punti indicati come SENSE sono per il telerilevamento utilizzato dal regolatore shunt, in modo che la tensione sia regolata direttamente al primo stadio! Il preamplificatore phono ad alto numero di ottani Benvenuti al preamplificatore phono ad alto numero di ottani! 25-10-2015 / Aggiornamento del 10-06-2017 Hannes Allmaier Questo sito ha lo scopo di aiutare a costruire questo preamplificatore phono. Il circuito è stato originariamente pubblicato in Linear Audio n. 6: http://linearaudio.net/article-detail/2159 e il thread del forum dedicato è disponibile all'indirizzo http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/analo…no-preamp.html dove tutti sono calorosamente invitati a contribuire! Schemi Lo schema del preamplificatore phono ad alto numero di ottani pubblicato in LinearAudio: È stato anche pubblicato qui: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/analo…ml#post3631742 Le schede Si prega di notare che le schede regalate sono realizzate 1:1 dalla mia costruzione del prototipo finale. Pertanto, anche queste hanno qualche verruca, bug e tutto il resto, niente di serio, ma vorrai leggere le seguenti note di costruzione. In termini di transistor , è possibile l'uso di molti transistor bipolari a basso rumore, anche se ovviamente consiglio l'uso delle parti specificate originariamente nonostante siano difficili da ottenere. Se si utilizzano transistor diversi, controllare il pin-out e regolare di conseguenza l'orientamento del transistor, se necessario. Il 2SC2547 utilizzato segue il pinout Emettitore-Collettore-Base (ECB) se visto frontalmente . Si noti che il transistor CCS di uscita Q4/Q104 è una parte piuttosto speciale, vale a dire un MOSFET a modalità di svuotamento, che è normalmente acceso. Dalle caratteristiche elettriche è simile ai comuni JFET ma con un IDSS molto più elevato. Grazie alle sue proprietà speciali è difficile da sostituire e si consiglia l'uso del DN2540 originale. Questa parte è in piena produzione e può essere ottenuta negli Stati Uniti da Mouser e Digikey. Se avete domande, inviatemi un'e-mail e cercherò di aiutarvi. Spero che questo piccolo circuito vi piaccia tanto quanto a me! Buona costruzione! Si prega di notare la nota dell'editore di LinearAudio: questo documento fornisce note e informazioni per la costruzione del preamplificatore phono High-Octane come pubblicato in Linear Audio Vol 6 (settembre 2013). L'autore ha anche gentilmente fornito i file Gerber del PCB per uso personale e/o di studio. Si prega di contattare l'autore se si prevede di utilizzare questo progetto o parti di esso per uno scopo commerciale. Note di costruzione Le schede sono identiche a quella che ho utilizzato per il mio prototipo (versione v3e), che è stata migliorata durante i test. Quindi questa versione manca di alcune piccole modifiche per renderla la versione finale 'f'. Lo schema mostrato nell'articolo è corretto e considera tutte queste modifiche. Regolatore di tensione: NON inserire CP1 (danneggerà l'amplificatore operazionale) e NON mettere a terra la sua seconda gamba (che è collegata all'ingresso dell'amplificatore operazionale); lo schema mostra correttamente come dovrebbe essere collegato CP1 (o semplicemente ometterlo) Ingressi amplificatore: omettere C6/C106 (C6/C106 è un residuo del circuito originale in cui formava la capacità di carico della cartuccia, sostituita in questa versione dai condensatori di carico commutabili); Ingressi amplificatore: collegare R2/R102 con un ponticello;

A causal theory for studying the cause-and-effect relationships of genes
New Post has been published on https://sunalei.org/news/a-causal-theory-for-studying-the-cause-and-effect-relationships-of-genes/
A causal theory for studying the cause-and-effect relationships of genes
By studying changes in gene expression, researchers learn how cells function at a molecular level, which could help them understand the development of certain diseases.
But a human has about 20,000 genes that can affect each other in complex ways, so even knowing which groups of genes to target is an enormously complicated problem. Also, genes work together in modules that regulate each other.
MIT researchers have now developed theoretical foundations for methods that could identify the best way to aggregate genes into related groups so they can efficiently learn the underlying cause-and-effect relationships between many genes.
Importantly, this new method accomplishes this using only observational data. This means researchers don’t need to perform costly, and sometimes infeasible, interventional experiments to obtain the data needed to infer the underlying causal relationships.
In the long run, this technique could help scientists identify potential gene targets to induce certain behavior in a more accurate and efficient manner, potentially enabling them to develop precise treatments for patients.
“In genomics, it is very important to understand the mechanism underlying cell states. But cells have a multiscale structure, so the level of summarization is very important, too. If you figure out the right way to aggregate the observed data, the information you learn about the system should be more interpretable and useful,” says graduate student Jiaqi Zhang, an Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center Fellow and co-lead author of a paper on this technique.
Zhang is joined on the paper by co-lead author Ryan Welch, currently a master’s student in engineering; and senior author Caroline Uhler, a professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS) who is also director of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and a researcher at MIT’s Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS). The research will be presented at the Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems.
Learning from observational data
The problem the researchers set out to tackle involves learning programs of genes. These programs describe which genes function together to regulate other genes in a biological process, such as cell development or differentiation.
Since scientists can’t efficiently study how all 20,000 genes interact, they use a technique called causal disentanglement to learn how to combine related groups of genes into a representation that allows them to efficiently explore cause-and-effect relationships.
In previous work, the researchers demonstrated how this could be done effectively in the presence of interventional data, which are data obtained by perturbing variables in the network.
But it is often expensive to conduct interventional experiments, and there are some scenarios where such experiments are either unethical or the technology is not good enough for the intervention to succeed.
With only observational data, researchers can’t compare genes before and after an intervention to learn how groups of genes function together.
“Most research in causal disentanglement assumes access to interventions, so it was unclear how much information you can disentangle with just observational data,” Zhang says.
The MIT researchers developed a more general approach that uses a machine-learning algorithm to effectively identify and aggregate groups of observed variables, e.g., genes, using only observational data.
They can use this technique to identify causal modules and reconstruct an accurate underlying representation of the cause-and-effect mechanism. “While this research was motivated by the problem of elucidating cellular programs, we first had to develop novel causal theory to understand what could and could not be learned from observational data. With this theory in hand, in future work we can apply our understanding to genetic data and identify gene modules as well as their regulatory relationships,” Uhler says.
A layerwise representation
Using statistical techniques, the researchers can compute a mathematical function known as the variance for the Jacobian of each variable’s score. Causal variables that don’t affect any subsequent variables should have a variance of zero.
The researchers reconstruct the representation in a layer-by-layer structure, starting by removing the variables in the bottom layer that have a variance of zero. Then they work backward, layer-by-layer, removing the variables with zero variance to determine which variables, or groups of genes, are connected.
“Identifying the variances that are zero quickly becomes a combinatorial objective that is pretty hard to solve, so deriving an efficient algorithm that could solve it was a major challenge,” Zhang says.
In the end, their method outputs an abstracted representation of the observed data with layers of interconnected variables that accurately summarizes the underlying cause-and-effect structure.
Each variable represents an aggregated group of genes that function together, and the relationship between two variables represents how one group of genes regulates another. Their method effectively captures all the information used in determining each layer of variables.
After proving that their technique was theoretically sound, the researchers conducted simulations to show that the algorithm can efficiently disentangle meaningful causal representations using only observational data.
In the future, the researchers want to apply this technique in real-world genetics applications. They also want to explore how their method could provide additional insights in situations where some interventional data are available, or help scientists understand how to design effective genetic interventions. In the future, this method could help researchers more efficiently determine which genes function together in the same program, which could help identify drugs that could target those genes to treat certain diseases.
This research is funded, in part, by the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab and the U.S. Office of Naval Research.

This article mainly introduces how to perform brake exhaust operation on Isuzu vehicles
ISUZU IDSS MX2-T Diagnostic Adapter System Support G- IDSS/US-IDSS/E-IDSS (Included DHL Shipping)
Air in the brake hydraulic circuit will result in dangerous reduced braking efficiency.
The brake hydraulic circuit must be bled whenever the vehicle has been operated with the reservoir brake fluid level at an excessively low level or any time the brake pipes have been disconnected in the course of brake servicing.
The brake bleeding procedure requires the cooperative action of two men.
Brake Bleeding Procedure Bleed the brake hydraulic circuit in the following se- quence. LHD Left-hand rear wheel (vehicle equipped with ABS) → Right-hand rear wheel → DSPV or LSPV → (If so equipped) → Right-hand front wheel → Left-hand front wheel RHD Left-hand rear wheel (vehicle equipped with ABS) → Right-hand rear wheel → DSPV or LSPV (If so equipped) → Left-hand front wheel → Right-hand front wheel
1. Check to make sure that the service area is well ventilated. Apply the parking brake firmly. Start the engine and allow it to run until the vacuum pressure rises suf- ficiently.
Notice: Brake booster (master-vac) will be adversely effected if bleeding operation is performed without running engine. If the vehicle is equipped with ABS, be sure to remove the ABS fuse (60 A) from the fuse box before beginning the air bleeding procedure. If this is not done, air is not bled completely from ABS unit, so that ABS unit will be broken. (Be sure to install the ABS fuse (60 A) in speci- fied position when the air bleeding procedure is complet- ed.)
2. Fill the brake fluid reservoir (1) up to the “MAX” lev- el with clean brake fluid.
It may be necessary to replenish the brake fluid reservoir several times during the bleeding proce- dure to maintain the required level of brake fluid.
Notice: Pour the brake fluid carefully so as not to produce air bubbles. 3. Remove the right hand rear wheel cylinder (left hand rear wheel cylinder if ABS is equipped) bleed- er screw rubber cap and wipe it clean. 4. Connect one end of a vinyl tube (2) to the bleeder screw. 5. Insert the other end of the vinyl tube into a trans- parent container approximately 1/3 full of brake flu- id. 6. Depress the brake pedal (3) slowly 3 times and hold it depressed.
7. Loosen the bleeder screw (4) approximately 1/2 of a turn.
This will release the brake fluid with air bubbles into the transparent container (5).
9. Slowly release the brake pedal.
10. Replace the bleeder screw rubber cap.
Notice:
In order to bleed the air completely from the brake line, repeat the above procedures.
Bleeding of the brake fluid circuit should be performed for front wheel 10 times or more, for rear wheel 15 times or more.
11. Repeat Steps 3 through 10 for each bleeder screws as mentioned before.
12. After the air bleeding procedure is finished in all wheels, depress the brake pedal, and verify wheth-
04.2023 ISUZU E- IDSS Diagnostic Software Download and Installation Service
er there is no abnormality in operation of the brake system. 13. After the air bleeding procedure for individual wheel is completed, inspect the fluid level of the reservoir tank. If it is insufficient, replenish brake fluid. Do not overfill above “MAX” level. 14. Stop the engine.

P0091 DTC Information 1. DTC description
The FRP regulator is installed on the fuel supply pump and controls the fuel amount sucked into the common rail (fuel rail). The FRP regulator is fully opened in the normal state and larger drive current results in a smaller opening of the regulator. The ECM calculates the desired common rail (fuel rail) pressure and the fuel flow rate, and compares the calculated common rail (fuel rail) pressure to the actual pressure value to determine the opening position of the FRP regulator. If the actual common rail (fuel rail) pressure is higher than the desired pressure, the FRP regulator closes to decrease the fuel flow rate. If the ECM detects an excessively low feedback current in the FRP regulator, the DTC is set.

Empowering systemic racism research at MIT and beyond
New Post has been published on https://sunalei.org/news/empowering-systemic-racism-research-at-mit-and-beyond/
Empowering systemic racism research at MIT and beyond
At the turn of the 20th century, W.E.B. Du Bois wrote about the conditions and culture of Black people in Philadelphia, documenting also the racist attitudes and beliefs that pervaded the white society around them. He described how unequal outcomes in domains like health could be attributed not only to racist ideas, but to racism embedded in American institutions.
Almost 125 years later, the concept of “systemic racism” is central to the study of race. Centuries of data collection and analysis, like the work of Du Bois, document the mechanisms of racial inequity in law and institutions, and attempt to measure their impact.
“There’s extensive research showing racial discrimination and systemic inequity in essentially all sectors of American society,” explains MIT Professor Fotini Christia, who directs the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS), where she also co-leads the Initiative on Combatting Systemic Racism (ICSR). “Newer research demonstrates how computational technologies, typically trained or reliant on historical data, can further entrench racial bias. But these same tools can also help to identify racially inequitable outcomes, to understand their causes and impacts, and even contribute to proposing solutions.”
In addition to coordinating research on systemic racism across campus, the IDSS initiative has a new project aiming to empower and support this research beyond MIT: the new ICSR Data Hub, which serves as an evolving, public web depository of datasets gathered by ICSR researchers.

Data for justice
“My main project with ICSR involved using Amazon Web Services to build the data hub for other researchers to use in their own criminal justice related projects,” says Ben Lewis SM ’24, a recent alumnus of the MIT Technology and Policy Program (TPP) and current doctoral student at the MIT Sloan School of Management. “We want the data hub to be a centralized place where researchers can access this information via a simple web or Python interface.”
While earning his master’s degree at TPP, Lewis focused his research on race, drug policy, and policing in the United States, exploring drug decriminalization policies’ impact on rates of incarceration and overdose. He worked as a member of the ICSR Policing team, a group of researchers across MIT examining the roles data plays in the design of policing policies and procedures, and how data can highlight or exacerbate racial bias.
“The Policing vertical started with a really challenging fundamental question,” says team lead and electrical engineering and computer science (EECS) Professor Devavrat Shah. “Can we use data to better understand the role that race plays in the different decisions made throughout the criminal justice system?”
So far, the data hub offers 911 dispatch information and police stop data, gathered from 40 of the largest cities in the United States by ICSR researchers. Lewis hopes to see the effort expand to include not only other cities, but other relevant and typically siloed information, like sentencing data.
“We want to stitch the datasets together so that we have a more comprehensive and holistic view of law enforcement systems,” explains Jessy Xinyi Han, a fellow ICSR researcher and graduate student in the IDSS Social and Engineering Systems (SES) doctoral program. Statistical methods like causal inference can help to uncover root causes behind inequalities, says Han — to “untangle a web of possibilities” and better understand the causal effect of race at different stages of the criminal justice process.
“My motivation behind doing this project is personal,” says Lewis, who was drawn to MIT in large part by the opportunity to research systemic racism. As a TPP student, he also founded the Cambridge branch of End Overdose, a nonprofit dedicated to stopping drug overdose deaths. His advocacy led to training hundreds in lifesaving drug interventions, and earned him the 2024 Collier Medal, an MIT distinction for community service honoring Sean Collier, who gave his life serving as an officer with the MIT Police.
“I’ve had family members in incarceration. I’ve seen the impact it has had on my family, and on my community, and realized that over-policing and incarceration are a Band-Aid on issues like poverty and drug use that can trap people in a cycle of poverty.”
Education and impact
Now that the infrastructure for the data hub has been built, and the ICSR Policing team has begun sharing datasets, the next step is for other ICSR teams to start sharing data as well. The cross-disciplinary systemic racism research initiative includes teams working in domains including housing, health care, and social media.
“We want to take advantage of the abundance of data that is available today to answer difficult questions about how racism results from the interactions of multiple systems,” says Munther Dahleh, EECS professor, IDSS founding director, and ICSR co-lead. “Our interest is in how various institutions perpetuate racism, and how technology can exacerbate or combat this.”
To the data hub creators, the main sign of success for the project is seeing the data used in research projects at and beyond MIT. As a resource, though, the hub can support that research for users from a range of experience and backgrounds.
“The data hub is also about education and empowerment,” says Han. “This information can be used in projects designed to teach users how to use big data, how to do data analysis, and even to learn machine learning tools, all specifically to uncover racial disparities in data.”
“Championing the propagation of data skills has been part of the IDSS mission since Day 1,” says Dahleh. “We are excited by the opportunities that making this data available can present in educational contexts, including but not limited to our growing IDSSx suite of online course offerings.”
This emphasis on educational potential only augments the ambitions of ICSR researchers across MIT, who aspire to use data and computing tools to produce actionable insights for policymakers that can lead to real change.
“Systemic racism is an abundantly evidenced societal challenge with far-reaching impacts across domains,” says Christia. “At IDSS, we want to ensure that developing technologies, combined with access to ever-increasing amounts of data, are leveraged to combat racist outcomes rather than continue to enact them.”
