Oral Presentation
Throughout the last 25 years, single particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has continuously evolved into a powerful modality for determining the 3D structure of radiation-sensitive biological macromolecules, culminating in the award of the recent Nobel prices in Chemistry 2017. This development has been enabled by constant maturation of image processing algorithms in concert with the...

Oral Presentation
The recent historic discovery of Gravitational Waves (GW) by LIGO won the Nobel Prize in physics in 2017 and opened a new era of GW astronomy. After about 100 years since the completion of General Relativity by Einstein, for the first time we can test this theory at extreme gravity conditions by using GW signals. The advanced computing technologies such as GRID and GPU play important roles to...
