In this case study, we hear from Jordan Deakin a Ph.D. student in Psychology, who has been making use of BlueBEAR and the BEAR Research Data Store to enable her research into visual selective attention. My PhD project explores how visual selective attention enables us to focus on task relevant information while filtering out interference. Typical investigations … Continue reading “Beating the Burden of Bayesian Statistics with BEAR!”

SNOW much fun: BEAR helps generate Open Access snow data
In this case study, we hear from Adrià Fontrodona-Bach (4th year Ph.D. student Geography), who has been making use of BlueBEAR and the BEAR Portal to enable him to create large Open Access datasets. “We need data” is a common statement in academic research. However, environmental data is usually scarce, unreliable, or inaccessible. As part of my … Continue reading “SNOW much fun: BEAR helps generate Open Access snow data”
Simulating DNA and its Interactions with Metal Compounds
In this case study, we hear from Samuel Dettmer (Chemistry), who has been making use of BlueBEAR and the Research Data Store to enable his research into the ability of metal compounds to bind to DNA structures. My name’s Sam and I’m a 2nd year PhD student in the Hannon Group in the School of Chemistry. My … Continue reading “Simulating DNA and its Interactions with Metal Compounds”
Using BlueBEAR to estimate the global impact of climate change on agriculture
In this case study, we hear from Allan Beltrán Hernández (Assistant Professor of Environmental Economics), who has been making use of BlueBEAR to enable his research into estimating the impact of climate change on agriculture at the global level. I work with colleagues at Yale University and the National Autonomous University of Mexico on estimating the impact … Continue reading “Using BlueBEAR to estimate the global impact of climate change on agriculture”
