As they prepare for graduation, college students often make numerous plans for the future. They consider the job market and prospects for marriage, family, and other relationships. Pursuing a diversity-rich future is also important, and in this chapter, the five interviewees discuss the potential role of culture in their post-college lives. Additional considerations include looking at the world through a global lens, approaching diversity as a value, and engaging the outrage of those who have suffered at the hands of injustice. Though even the best crystal ball cannot predict what will happen tomorrow, today's careful planning with sensitivity towards culture may be sufficient for ensuring a brighter road ahead.

Flow cytometry is a mature technology: Instruments recognizable as having elements of modern flow cytometers date back at least 30 years. There are many good sources for information about the essential features of flow cytometers, how they operate, and how they have been used. For the purposes of this book, it is necessary to know that flow cytometers have fluidic, optical, electronic, computational, and mechanical features. The main function of the fluidic components is to use hydrodynamic focusing to create a stable particle stream in which particles are aligned in single file within a sheath stream, so that the particles can be analyzed and sorted. The main functions of the optical components are to allow the particles to be illuminated by one or more lasers or other light sources and to allow scattered light as well as multiple fluorescence signals to be resolved and be routed to individual detectors. The electronics coordinate these functions, from the acquisition of the signals (pulse collection, pulse analysis, triggering, time delay, data, gating, detector control) to forming and charging individual droplets, and to making sort decisions. The computational components are directed at postacquisition data display and analysis, analysis of multivariate populations and multiplexing assays, and calibration and analysis of time-dependent cell or reaction phenomena. Mechanical components are now being integrated with flow cytometers to handle plates of samples and to coordinate automation such as the movement of a cloning tray with the collection of the droplets. The reader is directed to a concise description of these processes in Robinson’s article in the Encyclopedia of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering. This book was conceived of to provide a perspective on the future of flow cytometry, and particularly its application to biotechnology. It attempts to answer the question I heard repeatedly, especially during my association with the National Institutes of Health–funded National Flow Cytometry Resource at Los Alamos National Laboratory: What is the potential for innovation in flow cytometer design and application? This volume brings together those approaches that identify the unique contributions of flow cytometry to the modern world of biotechnology.

History Of

Following the theme for this year's conference, this paper contributes to ongoing discussions defining the future of cognitive engineering research by examining a part of its past. The history of one particular line of research, that of the Electronics Department at Risø National Laboratory, is reviewed. A number of important studies, conducted between 1962 and 1979, are briefly described. Among these are operational experience acquired from the introduction of a prototype digital console in a nuclear research reactor, two field studies of professional operators conducting representative tasks in representative settings (electronic trouble-shooting and conventional power plant control), and analyses of over 645 human error reports in the nuclear and aviation industries. Some of the themes characterizing the Risø research program in cognitive engineering are briefly summarized. These themes help define what cognitive engineering is, and what it might be concerned with in the future.
