Multi-omics data compendium: Data package 7 (Pck007)

In type 1 diabetes (T1D), autoimmune response and inflammation cause the death of pancreatic ß cells, leading to the body’s inability to produce insulin and maintain glucose homeostasis. This process is at least in part mediated by pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interferon (IFN)a, IFN?, interleukin (IL)-1ß, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)a, which induce ß-cell dysfunction and apoptosis. A deep understanding of the ß-cell signaling and regulatory networks induced by these cytokines could lead to the identification of therapeutic targets to prevent T1D development. To study cytokine-mediated islets/ß-cell signaling and regulatory networks, a variety of omics experiments have been conducted, including transcriptomics, epigenomics (DNA methylation, UMI-4C, ATAC-seq & ChIP-seq), proteomics (bottom-up, top-down, post-translational modification analysis), lipidomics, and metabolomics. The combination of these datasets can be instrumental in identifying signaling components and regulatory factors involved in ß-cell stress/death. Here, we aggregated these multiple omics datasets into a centralized location, providing a quality-controlled and statistically rigorous resource for investigators seeking to holistically study ß-cell regulation by pro-inflammatory cytokines.

PPI DataHub Project Data Package: High-density Lipoprotein (HDL) Structure and Function Proteomics

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate how the interactions between APOA1 and APOA2 on the surface of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) impact particle function. Interactions were investigated on HDL isolated from human blood plasma using structural proteomics tools such as chemical cross-linking and limited proteolysis (LiP). The structural proteomics data was acquired using a Q-Exactive HF-X mass spectrometer and data was processed and compiled using MaxQuant sofware (v.1.6.17.0). Processed datasets are openly accessible from the download button (~2.8 GB) and contain secondary processed LiP and global proteomic results files and supporting metadata materials. Processed data downloads include a sample naming key, processed MaxQuant results/parameters, and protein annotated relative abundance files.

PPI DataHub Project Data Package: S. elongatus PCC 7942 Limited Proteolysis and Thermal Proteome Profiling Structural Proteomics (JM-PB-DP3)

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate structural alterations in proteins involved in central carbon metabolism and photosynthetic electron transfer pathways in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942. Sample data was obtained from S. elongatus cell lysates using three complementary mass spectrometry (MS) techniques using limited proteolysis (LiP-MS), thermal proteome profiling (TPP-MS), and redox enrichment (Redox-MS) in evaluating alterations solvent accessibility and structural stability caused by light perturbation at the molecular level. Experimentally processed sample data for LiP and TPP proteomic datasets were derived from the same cell culture stock, prepared simultaneously in parallel, and acquired by mass spectrometry. Processed datasets are openly accessible from the download button and contain secondary processed proteomic results files, computed outputs, and supporting metadata materials. Experimental samples processed for LiP-MS label-free quantification (LFQ) or TPP-MS tandem mass tag (TMT) 10-plex were acquired using a Q-Exactive HF-X mass spectrometer and processed/compiled using either MSGF+ (v2024.03.26) or ​​​​PlexedPiper for proteome evaluation. Additional software supporting downstream proteomic analysis include FragPipe (v.4.0), MSFragger (v.22.1), and an adapted Microbial Isolate LiP Analysis Workflow (located at Zenodo). Processed proteomic data downloads include a sample naming key, normalized quantification results files, and processed protein annotated abundance files.

Enhancement of the Physical and Mechanical Properties of Cellulose Nanofibril-Reinforced Lignocellulosic Foams for Packaging and Building Applications

Biobased foams have the potential to serve as eco-friendly alternatives to petroleum-based foams, provided they achieve comparable thermomechanical and physical properties. We propose a facile approach to fabricate eco-friendly cellulose nanofibril (CNF)-reinforced thermomechanical pulp (TMP) fiber-based foams via an oven-drying process with thermal conductivity as low as 0.036 W/(m·K) at a 34.4 kg/m3 density. Acrodur®, iron chloride (FeCl3), and cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) were used to improve the foam properties. Acrodur® did not have any significant effect on the foamability and density of the foams. Mechanical, thermal, cushioning, and water absorption properties of the foams were dependent on the density and interactions of the additives with the fibers. Due to their high density, foams with CPAM and FeCl3 at a 1% additive dosage had significantly higher compressive properties at the expense of slightly higher thermal conductivity. There was slight increase in compressive properties with the addition of Acrodur®. All additives improved the water stability of the foams, rendering them stable even after 24 h of water absorption.

Packaging HEP Heterogeneous Mini-apps for Portable Benchmarking and Facility Evaluation on Modern HPCs

High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments are making increasing use of GPUs and GPU dominated High Performance Computer facilities. Both the software and hardware of these systems are rapidly evolving, creating challenges for experiments to make informed decisions as to where they wish to devote resources. In its first phase, the High Energy Physics Center for Computational Excellence (HEP-CCE) produced portable versions of a number of heterogeneous HEP mini-apps, such as \ptor, FastCaloSim, Patatrack and the WireCell Toolkit, that exercise a broad range of GPU characteristics, enabling cross platform and facility benchmarking and evaluation. However, these mini-apps still require a significant amount of manual intervention to deploy on a new facility. We present our work in developing turn-key deployments of these mini-apps, where by means of containerization and automated configuration and build techniques such as Spack, we are able to quickly test new hardware, software, environments and entire facilities with minimal user intervention, and then track performance metrics over time.

Introducing NOODLES: Collaborative Visualization in a Flavorful Package

We introduce NOODLES, a lightweight collaborative visualization and analysis protocol. NOODLES was developed to enable new scientific workflows while enhancing existing pipelines. Using a technology-minimal approach to strengthen applicability, this protocol allows researchers to tie disparate software together as well as making domain specific visualizations accessible across various platforms and form factors. In this talk we discuss background, challenges, and gaps in the current tool landscape that lead to the development of the protocol. We then describe the design of the protocol and present several use cases to demonstrate the efficacy of NOODLES in addressing complex visualization challenges and how it co-exists with existing tools. We conclude by outlining in-progress work and potential avenues for future development within the NOODLES framework.

Packaging a 650V/400A GaN Half-bridge Power Module with Ultra-low Parasitics for Electric Vehicle Drive Applications

This paper proposes a compact and efficient half-bridge power module with three 650 V / 150 A GaN dies in parallel. The power module incorporates a main power printed circuit board (PCB), an interface PCB, and a flex PCB to achieve low parasitics in both power loop and gate-side connection, resolving the issue of high parasitics typically encountered with wire bonding in high-current applications. Additionally, the interface PCB decouples the design constraints between the power loop and the gate loops. The proposed design is optimized with a vertical loop configuration to reduce power loop inductance through magnetic flux cancellation. Finite element analysis indicates that the power loop inductance is 0.58 nH at 100 MHz, while the maximum die junction temperature reaches 131 °C under an ambient temperature of 65 °C and a load current of 385 A. The proposed multi-piece PCB structure reduces the inductance of the drive circuit to minimize EMI and to mitigate false triggering. At the same time, it reduces impedance mismatches across different driver circuits, thereby achieving dynamic current sharing in multi-chip parallel configurations. Under simulation conditions of 400 V / 385 A, the current imbalance among chips was limited to 5 A. A 400 V / 385 A double-pulse test was conducted to experimentally validate the performance of the proposed power module.
