Singers Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston both had serious alcohol problems. How do people we admire and care about get swallowed up by addiction? We go straight to the source of the problem: the brain. Dr. Donita Robinson gives us a tour of the brain activity underlying our craving for food, sex and drugs. Then she explains how alcohol affects us in the short and long term. From there we delve into the fascinating world of her research in rats–research that tells us about teenagers, the drug treatments of the future, and much more.

Listen to the podcast

On episode 24, we discuss ParaViewWeb, software for interative, 3D browser-based web visualization based on a client-server architecture. We go over the technologies that make this possible, including JavaScript, WebGL, Java Applets, Flex, and JSON-RPC. The role of this next-generation collabortive visualization technology is discussed along with its challenges including high-bandwidth connections and sometimes limited hardware and software support. On today's show our crew of hosts includes:
  • Utkarsh Ayachit (special guest)
  • Sebastien Jourdain (special guest)
  • Matthew McCormick (moderator)
This week Utkarsh Ayachit joins us from Kitware, Inc. He has been one of core developers of ParaView for the past 7 years and is the Project Lead for ParaViewWeb. Also from Kitware, Sebastien Jourdain started as a Research and Design engineer for the Scientific Visualization team in February 2010. Since then he developed ParaViewWeb and the Collaboration framework underneath the latest ParaView. Intro/Outro Music: 'Boolean Array' -Social Bot
