The Innovation Lab hosted an Open House on March 11th in Harriman Hall 210. Over 100 students and faculty came to explore the different resources available in the Lab and check out projects students are currently working on. Wolfie was even there to take pictures with everyone on the green screen! Stop by the Lab yourself and get involved in the up and coming community.

The Innovation lab officially opened this Spring with a successful open house event. Our goal is to collaborate with different departments in order to expose the Stony Brook community to new technologies and to spark new ideas. Some of the tools available for use in the lab include a 3D printer, paper cutter and green screen, among others.
Thank you everyone who came to the open house!
The Innovation Lab will be hosting a Marketing Yourself workshop in collaboration with the American Marketing Association!
When: Wednesday, March 11th, 1 PM
Where: Innovation Lab, Harriman Hall 210

The Innovation Lab in Harriman 210 is official open. Please stop by to join the community in any of our posted hours of operation. (See Hours page).
Here are some pictures of the space:
The “Foodini,” as it’s called, isn’t too different from a regular 3D printer, but instead of printing with plastics, it deploys edible ingredients squeezed out of stainless steel capsules.
Researchers are working on ways to use 3D printing to produce food. Currently, most work is being done in chocolate and sugar but the innovation foreshadows great things for the future of food production. Food created from a 3D printer can be used for things such as wedding cake toppers, easily chewable and customized nutrition, sustainable foods and cocktail garnishes. This is just the beginning of what 3D printed food can become as time passes!

The National Science Foundation funds super computer sites through a program called XSEDE (Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment). This is a single place where you can request computational hours on their various HPC resources.
Doug Swesty from Astronomy partnered with Research Technologies to ask for an abstract that could be used as example to request 200K hours of CPU time. Thanks the generosity of Neelima Sehgal – we have enclosed an example of how to request hours on the XSEDE resources.

We have all seen 3D printers being used to make replacement limbs for humans, but Derby, a dog born without his two front legs, is the first animal to be successfully outfitted with 3D-printed prosthetics.
Derby was adopted by Tara Anderson, who works for a 3D printing company called 3D Systems. She teamed up with animal orthotist, Derrick Campana and several design attempts later, they finally settled on an oval-tread shape, designed to fit Derby’s unique anatomy.
