Submissions for BCATS 2010 are now being accepted at http://bcats.stanford.edu
Abstract submission deadline: October 18, 2010
Symposium date: November 6, 2010
Now in its eleventh year, the Biomedical Computation at Stanford (BCATS) Symposium, a one-day scientific conference organized entirely by students highlighting current research by students and post-docs in the San Francisco bay area including Stanford, UC Berkeley, UC San Francisco, UC Santa Cruz and UC Davis. BCATS provides an open, interdisciplinary forum for students and post-docs around the San Francisco bay area to share their latest work in computational biology and medicine with their fellow colleagues from neighboring institutions. Last year, BCATS presented the work of over 60 research projects to over 250 attendees from the scientific community.
All all students and post-docs conducting research in biomedical computation are encouraged to submit an abstract for presentation at BCATS 2010. Attendance at BCATS is free for students who register by the early-registration deadline of October 31, 2010. Work presented at BCATS will be in the form of either a 10 minute scientific talk or a poster presentation.
1pm ~ 6pm Saturday, Oct 2nd @ Gates B02 & B21
Are you a programmer or hacker with a flair for coding under pressure? Does the word "ALGORITHM" send chills down your spine? If so, the Stanford ACM Local Programming Contest is for you!
Once again, Stanford will be hosting a local programming contest to select the individuals who will represent Stanford at the 2010 ACM Pacific NW Regional Contest and will have a chance to compete at the 2011 ACM ICPC World Finals in Egypt!

The Engineering Library is pleased to announce we now have full access for Stanford faculty, students and staff to the SAE Digital Library. Content includes SAE Technical Papers since 1906. and access to the SAE Global Mobility Database (GMD) which includes summaries of more than 177,000 documents—technical papers, standards, regulations, journals, reports, etc.
The Engineering Library has just licensed a new product from ASTM called the Medical device standards portal. Students, faculty, and staff can now access 1,300+ medical device standards from one single database developed jointly by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI), the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), ASTM International and the German Institute for Standardization (DIN).
This new Medical device standards portal is a single source for relevant documents from AAMI, ASTM, DIN, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and various European regulations.
The Engineering Library is now moved to our new space in the Jen-Hsun Huang Engineering Center. We are OPEN in our new location (Rm 201). Use the breezeway door to enter the Octagon.
Please note that while we are open, there are a few things still "under construction" the following are unavailable at this time:
All Engineering Library materials on reserve for summer quarter will be available at the Green Library Circulation Desk.
