NCAR<br />

In December, NCAR opened applications to the SIParCS program for 2011. This year, 18<br />

summer project descriptions were solicited from local mentors. NCAR conducted training in the<br />

VAPOR visualization tool at the American Geophysical Union 2010 meeting in San Francisco.<br />

Approximately 25 people attended.<br />

PSC<br />

PSC’s Pallavi Ishwad and Jacob Czech gave a 90-minute presentation on the CMIST module<br />

“Enzyme Structure and Function” at the education program at SC10. The presentation was wellreceived.<br />

About 25 educators, 15 from under-represented groups, attended the presentation and<br />

provided important feedback for further improvements to the module. CMIST (Computational<br />

Modules in Science Teaching) is a program of the National Resource for Biomedical<br />

Supercomputing (NRBSC) at PSC that aims to bring innovative science tutorials into secondary<br />

school classrooms, focusing on integrative computational biology, physiology, and biophysics.<br />

CMIST modules include high quality, biologically realistic 3-D animations produced with<br />

cutting-edge simulation and visualization software developed at NRBSC.<br />

Ishwad also gave a 90-minute presentation on BEST, Better Educators of Science for Tomorrow.<br />

About 40 educators, 15 from under-represented groups, attended. BEST is a PSC outreach<br />

program that exposes teachers to modern molecular biology concepts and evaluates inclusion of<br />

computational biology and bioinformatics into high school curriculum. In addition, BEST<br />

prepares teachers to refocus their teaching strategies towards exposing and encouraging students<br />

to become aware of emerging and exciting biomedical careers.<br />
