Museum trades memberships for data- Dallas Museum of Art gives you free

membership in exchange for giving personal data. Operating Revenue comes mainly
from grants, not entrance fees or memberships, and grants are tied to measurable
visitors. So this is very smart.

Simulating a cell- Scientists are now simulating EVERYTHING in a single cell, using
22+ system models which are then updated sequentially (i.e. t=0s; update all systems
sequentially; t=1s, update all systems sequentially etc.
This approach is leading to amazing insight because experiments can actually be done
on the computer, and all details of the cell tracked.

New technique for


High Dimensional Propensity Score Algorithm

We can now create Optical cloaking devices, Sonic clocking devices, and even
earthquake cloaking devices. Any wave can now be sent around an object.

Multifrequency overlays allow advance image analysis. I.e. picture of field at visual,
infrared, UV and Xray spectrums allows us to identify things that we couldnt on a single
spectrum.
That is, multiple objects may share a signature on one spectrum, but if we look at
multiple bands simultaneously each object has a unique fingerprint
