‘Grey’s Anatomy’: How Will Alex’s Exit Affect Jo? Properly Addressing Justin Chambers’ Departure Will Take Some Time – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Greys Anatomy changed forever when Justin Chambers announced his departure from the Shondaland series after 15 strong years. The actors final episode reportedly aired on Nov. 14, meaning writers will have to wrap up the longstanding character offscreen. As things stand now, Alex is married to Jo (Camilla Luddington), who still has a presence at Grey Sloan Memorial. So how will Alexs exit affect Jo on Greys Anatomy? Theres plenty to unravel in the next few weeks.

[Spoiler alert:Greys AnatomySeason 16, Episode 13.]

On Friday, Jan. 10, Deadline reported Chambers exit from Greys Anatomy. In a statement, the actor said:

Theres no good time to say goodbye to a show and character thats defined so much of my life for the past 15 years. For some time now, however, I have hoped to diversify my acting roles and career choices. And, as I turn 50 and am blessed with my remarkable, supportive wife and five wonderful children, now is that time.

As I move on from Greys Anatomy, I want to thank the ABC family, Shonda [Rhimes], original cast members Ellen Pompeo, Chandra Wilson and James Pickens, and the rest of the amazing cast and crew, both past and present, and, of course, the fans for an extraordinary ride.

As Chambers announcement was made in the midst of the midseason break, Greys Anatomy briefly touched on the actors absence in the season 16 winter premiere. Jo stated Alex went to take care of his mom in Iowa. But dont worry. That isnt the full extent of Alexs ending.

In Greys Anatomy Season 16, Episode 13, the ABC series dropped a few subtle clues to indicate Alexs actual exit hasnt happened yet but will in the near future. For now, everyone expects Alex to return from Iowa. Meredith (Ellen Pompeo), Richard (James Picken Jr.), Bailey (Chandra Wilson), and Owen (Kevin McKidd) got Alexs job back at Grey Sloan. But will he ever come back to take the position?

Midway through the episode, Jo told Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) that Alex hasnt been returning her calls. Jo revealed Alex may need some time. However, she also wondered whether Alex was getting revenge for when she needed time after discovering she was a product of rape. But she quickly refuted her deepest fears, noting her husband would never do something like that.

Nevertheless, Jo returned to an empty apartment at the end of the episode. Time goes on, Meredith said in a voiceover. And when one thing ends, something new always begins.

Following the Greys Anatomy episode on Feb. 13, Krista Vernoff spoke with Variety about all the changes in season 16. The showrunner also touched on Alexs storyline moving forward, confirming everyone will find out what is happening soon.

Viewers will learn more about what is going on with Alex in the coming weeks, Vernoff said.

But when will Alex officially leave Greys Anatomy? It seems the exit will drag on for some time before fans are given a solid answer.

Were, episode by episode, illuminating the story of where Alex is, Vernoff said. And it takes us quite a few more episodes to get there and to give the audience clarity.

Meanwhile, Vernoff explained how Alexs departure will affect Jo. And as expected, it is not an easy task.

It was a very careful threading of a needle, where we are giving a little bit of information and pain to Jo, Vernoff said.

That said, Vernoff shared the Greys Anatomy writers dont plan to make Jo spiral like in season 15. However, to properly do so, the series will need to take some time. She said:

Jo went through so much pain and so much grief just last season that I wanted to be careful. And so its a bit of a mystery [whats going on with Alex], so that we dont watch Jo in the same place that we watched her in last season. We did it as carefully as we could. But it takes a while to get there.

At this point, its too early to tell how Alex will leave Greys Anatomy. As Vernoff noted, the ABC drama will add more pieces to the puzzle within the next few weeks. And from the sounds of it, Jo will come out the other end just fine. But how will the writers be able to pull that off when Alex was Jos rock? It seems highly unlikely Jo will end up completely unscathed. Regardless, well just have to see what happens next.

Inside the Funhouse Action Scene From Birds of Prey – The New York Times

In Anatomy of a Scene, we ask directors to reveal the secrets that go into making key scenes in their movies. See new episodes in the series each Friday. You can also watch our collection of more than 150 videos on YouTube and subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Roller skating in an action scene? Difficult. Roller skating in an action scene while on a rotating carousel? Good luck with that.

Margot Robbie pulls off the stunt as Harley Quinn in Birds of Prey. Though the climactic moment, which takes place in a funhouse, wasnt just a challenging set piece for Robbie. Other cast members, including Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jurnee Smollett-Bell, Ella Jay Basco and Rosie Perez, performed many of their own stunts in a sequence that required months of training and preparation. That included leaping on bouncy props and executing complex fight choreography on that rotating set.

In this video, the director Cathy Yan further discusses the scenes levels of difficulty and how the shots were organized. For one, she and her team came up with a clever way to maintain continuity when shooting on a spinning set with a wildly colorful background.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’: Why Amelia Won’t Reveal the Father of Her Baby – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

[Spoiler alert: Greys Anatomy Season 16.] Sorry, Greys Anatomy fans the messy triangle between Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd), Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), and Atticus Link Lincoln (Chris Carmack) is far from over. For weeks, viewers as well as our beloved characters have been stressed about the father of Amelias child. However, in the 13th episode titled Save the Last Dance for Me the neurosurgeon decided against a paternity test. So why didnt Amelia reveal the father of her baby on Greys Anatomy? Theres more to this story than meets the eye.

In the Greys Anatomy Season 16 premiere titled Nothing Left to Cling To Amelia learns about her pregnancy after a visit with Carina DeLuca (Stefania Spampinato). At this point, Amelia and Owen are broken up and she is dating Link. Meanwhile, Owen and Teddy (Kim Raver) are gearing up to raise a family together.

Regardless, by the time the episode ends, the paternity of Amelias baby is questioned. But as season 16 continues, its clear Amelia believes the father is Link. Then when she tells him the news, Link is excited and ready to dive in. However, that feeling doesnt last for long.

In the Greys Anatomy Season 16 fall finale titled Lets All Go to the Bar Amelia gets an ultrasound. And it turns out, she is 24 weeks pregnant, rather than 20. So its possible Amelias baby is Owens and not Links.

Eventually, Amelia gathers up the courage to tell Link the truth. That said, she doesnt want to get a paternity test since she made her decision and wants to be with Link. At first, Link is fine with Amelias decision. But he reconsiders and wants to take the test.

Then in episode 13, Amelia puts her foot down. She doesnt want to take the test. As Link is stressing out in the plant room, Amelia texts her boyfriend. Im sorry, she writes. I didnt run the test. I need time.

Link stares at his phone in disbelief.

When speaking with Variety on Feb. 13, Greys Anatomy showrunner, Krista Vernoff, delved into the drama surrounding Amelias baby, explaining why the character is having such a difficult time facing the paternity of her unborn child.

She is not going to play by anyone elses rules, Vernoff said. And she is protecting her own heart and her own pregnancy and her own sanity at whatever cost.

The showrunner later added: She is figuring out what it is on her own terms. This character has learned how to listen to her own body and shes been through one very traumatic pregnancy. And the feelings that came up in her body were not feelings that she wants to navigate during this pregnancy. So shes looking to take care of herself and her baby.

But despite isolating herself from Link at this moment, Vernoff said Amelia isnt alone and will likely find refuge in her sisters, Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and Maggie Pierce (Kelly McCreary).

Vernoff also confirmed the father of Amelias baby wont be revealed for some time. I know the fans want an answer as to whose baby this is, and theyre not going to get it as soon as they wish for it, she said.

Greys Anatomy fans have already expressed their frustrations in regards to Amelias story storyline. Now, viewers can expect more in the upcoming weeks but thats sort of the point.

The way weve written this story, from week to week, Im sort of on her side, and then Im on Links side, and then I dont really know, she said. I think it sparks a lot of conversation of, Is she being selfish to not find out or is he being selfish to want to know? It is kind of the question that we ask.

Faculty to be hired to meet growing neuroscience major demands – The Daily Athenaeum – thedaonline

As WVUs neuroscience major has continued to grow, the need for faculty has as well.

Last spring, WVU introduced the first neuroscience major in West Virginia. Cole Vonder Haar, Behavioral Neuroscience Search Committee chair, said since introducing it, dozens of students have declared it as their major.

The major is an interdisciplinary collaboration between the Psychology and Biology departments, Vonder Haar said. It is in its first year, but we already have approximately 60 majors and expect that to grow considerably over the next several years.

To keep up with the growth of this program, the University is in the process of hiring two new faculty members to conduct research as well as develop and lead the majors classes. Kris Martens, coordinator for the neuroscience major, said although the University is still in the interviewing stage of the hiring process, the applicants so far have each had their own unique specialties.

One of the most exciting things about the neuroscientists we have been interviewing is they have different expertise [such as] drug addiction, neurodevelopment, stress and hormones, Martens said. While they are all well equipped to teach the courses we currently offer at WVU and the ones I am developing, they also have the opportunity to create some new courses that our undergraduates will find really exciting.

Martens said the variety of expertise in the field will be helpful in teaching the courses that are being developed, as well as create new courses of their own. The new faculty will also bring in their own research projects, which may allow undergraduates with research opportunities to get real-world experience.

Vonder Haar said the new additions to the department will likely be announced within the next few months.

Although our search is still ongoing, we would hope to be able to announce new hires to the University before the end of the semester, Vonder Haar said.

These new hires will fit into a growing neuroscience community at WVU, Vonder Haar said. Many of our applicants are excited about the strong pool of undergraduate talent we have here at WVU.

The field of neuroscience is something that has grown exponentially at WVU. Michelle Frankot, WVU graduate student, said growth within the department will continue to allow WVU to make breakthroughs in the field.

There are also opportunities to get more involved in data science in careers such as biostatistics, Frankot said. Some students may go on to medical school in hopes of being neurologists, neurosurgeons or psychiatrists.

Using neuroscience to design education interventions: what have we learned? | Wellcome – Wellcome Trust

Opinion | 10 February 2020

Asimina VergouResearch Programme Lead, EducationWellcome

Neuroscience can improve educational outcomes, but teachers should be involved from early on in the design of interventions.

Credit: Thomas S.G. Farnetti / Wellcome

There's a growing recognition in the UK that teaching needs to be a research-literate profession. When teachers use evidence from education research it helps them innovate and overcome barriers to progression and attainment.

Interest in applying neuroscience evidence in education has been growing globally and teachers have told us [PDF 650KB] that they would like to use more neuroscience findings in their practice.

At the same time, neuroscientists have raised concerns over the spread of neuromythsmisconceptions about the mind and brain that are often used to justify ineffective approaches to teaching.

To address this,we partneredwith the Education Endowment Foundation(EEF)on an Education and Neuroscience funding programme. We wanted educators and neuroscientists to work together to develop evidence-based classroom interventions, or to test existing tools and programmes that could then be scaled up.

The programme ran between 2014 and 2019, and we supported six projects. Theprojects have beenexternally evaluatedto lookattheir impact(impact evaluation),implementationand feasibility (process evaluation).

One of our key learnings wasthe importance of involving teachers in all phases of an educational neuroscience intervention. Only one of the six projects did this, and it was the most successful.

Spaced Learningwas co-designed and delivery-led by teachers working for the Hallam Teaching School Alliance(TSA). It aimed to improve GCSE outcomes by applying the approach of spaced learningthatinformation is more easily learnt when it is repeated on multiple occasions, with time passing between the repetitions.

The project involved a small randomised controlled trial (RCT) led by the projects evaluator, The Centre for Evidence and Social Innovation (CESI) at Queens University Belfast (QUB). The project tested different approaches to delivering spaced learning in science lessons. It provided some evidence that the most promising approach to integrate spaced learning was using both 10-minute and 24-hour spaces between teaching science content.

Both teachers and pupils enjoyed and engaged with the programme. Because the programme was co-designed by teachers, it fitted into teachers normal practice and didn't interfere with their teaching. Most teachers delivered the intervention as prescribed and didnt need support beyond the initial training.

Since the project finished, Hallam TSA and QUB CESI are working together on the programme, now called SMART Spaces. The programme is currently being trialled at a bigger scale with over 14,000 pupils participating.

The other five projects were developed and delivered by teams of academics. Of these, one showed positive results.

Stop and Think: Learning Counterintuitive Concepts developed a computer-based learning activity that used methods to improve pupils ability to adapt to counterintuitive concepts. An example of such a concept is that children might make the mistake of thinking that -5 is larger than -1. Year 3 (aged 7-8) and Year 5 pupils (aged 9-10) were trained to inhibit their initial response and give a slower and more reflective answer.

Pupils who participated in the programme made the equivalent of +1 additional months progress in maths and +2 additional months progress in science, on average, compared to children in the lessons-as-usual control group. It should be noted that the maths result is not statistically significant.

But although teachers mostly stayed true to the intervention design, they did report problems. These included issues with the software, low quality animation, some content being too easy and repetitive (leading to low pupilengagement) and finding it difficult to fit the intervention into a busy timetable. For these reasons, the majority of teachers did not endorse rolling out the intervention to other schools.

So even though the project was successful in the sense that it was implemented with fidelity and showed positive outcomes, closercollaboration with teachersis needed to make sure that an intervention isfeasible andthen endorsed by them to be rolled out to other schools.

The EEF are now working with the Stop and Think project team to make changes based on teacher feedback and potentially test the approach in more schools.

The other projectsFit to Study, Teensleep and Sci-napse: Engaging the Brains Reward Systemall faced issues during implementation. And GraphoGame Rime showed no measurable effects when compared to business as usual. This was a valuable finding, because it shows that schools should be cautious about claims made for this particular intervention and should not expect to see large effects.

A key lesson from the history of RCTs is to embrace zero or negative findings in the same way we embrace positive ones.

Overall, the results of the Education and Neuroscience funding programme highlight the need for genuine research-practice partnerships, where teachers can provide a reality-check about their classrooms when interventions are designed. Prescriptive interventions designed by researchers alone run the risk of facing implementation issues, high student attrition rates and lack of teacher support for further roll-out.

As with all things however, there is a balance to be struck. Ifinterventions are not sufficiently different to usual practice they may notmake a difference to student outcomes. The key is to ensure that the programme is feasible for teachers to deliver and that there is enough training and support to enable them to adapt as necessary.

Our example from Spaced Learning illustrates what is possible when teachers and researchers work together to co-design an intervention. An educational idea or intervention may be great in principle, but as a recentEEF guidance reportsuggests, 'what really matters is how it manifests itself in the day-to-day work of people in schools.'

Objective: Rating scales and neuropsychological tests including continuous performance tests (CPTs) are widely used to assess executive functions (EFs). Event-related potentials (ERPs) are also used to index certain EFs such as action preparation and inhibition. In this descriptive study, we examined the associations between results on an EF rating scale, a CPT and ERP components in ADHD as a function of age.Methods: Fifty-nine patients with ADHD (and more often than not with comorbid disorders) in two age groups (9 12 years and 13 17 years) were assessed using EF ratings, a visual CPT and ERPs (CueP3, P3go and P3no-go).Results: There were age related changes in the ERPs with the CueP3 amplitude being stronger in children, and the P3no-go amplitude stronger in adolescents. The associations between the EF measures were different in the two age groups. In particular, the P3no-go seemed to reflect different EF-related processes in children versus adolescents.Conclusion: Age group effects were seen on a selection of ERP amplitudes in this sample of patients with ADHD. Ratings, test scores and EF-related ERPs seem to capture different aspects of EF in ADHD, and the associations differed depending on age group. The results show that different measures of EF are not interchangeable and highlight the importance of age when interpreting ERPs.

WSU, WPAFB have close ties – Fairborn Daily Herald

FAIRBORN When Wright State University began to sprout up more than 50 years ago right next to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, it was a dream come true for Air Force planners starving for a nearby university.

Since then, Wright State and Wright-Patterson have become soulmates and close partners in everything from engineering and medicine to neuroscience and music.

The College of Engineering and Computer Science receives millions of dollars in funded research from Wright-Patterson, especially from the Air Force Research Laboratory.

Scores of students from the college are hired each year at Wright-Patterson and scores of students also participate annually in internships on base and with defense contractors. Dozens of the colleges graduate students support Air Force research projects.

Wright-Patterson personnel frequently serve as adjunct faculty and on grad student thesis and dissertation committees. The college also collaborates with Wright-Patterson personnel in organizing professional meetings, workshops and conferences.

The Wright State Boonshoft School of Medicine also has close ties with Wright-Patterson.

Many students at the USAF School of Aerospace Medicine earn their masters degrees in public health at the Boonshoft School of Medicine and complete their training through the Wright State Family Medicine Residency.

More than 71 fully affiliated faculty members and 36 partially affiliated volunteer faculty members at the School of Medicine serve as active-duty physicians and scientists at Wright-Patterson. They are active in teaching and research as well as serving as mentors to students and faculty.

In partnership with the 88th Medical Group at Wright-Patterson, the School of Medicine sponsors residencies in internal medicine, emergency medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, general surgery and psychiatry.

Forty percent of the 382 residents are active-duty Air Force officers who are trained in hospitals and clinics in the region and care for patients throughout the community.

Margaret Dunn, dean of the Boonshoft School of Medicine, said the Wright-Patterson Air Force Medical Center and the 88th Medical Group have been valued partners for the medical schools entire 40-year history.

Our integrated residency training programs have been replicated through military medicine, said Dunn. Our subsequently developed collaborations with other Air Force educational and research units, including the USAF School of Aerospace Medicine and the 711th Human Performance Wing, have advanced our individual missions and enhanced both our organizations.

The Department of Neuroscience, Cell Biology and Physiology has education partnership agreements with the Air Force Research Laboratory and the Naval Medical Research Unit Two that provide opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to work in these labs.

More than 700 alumni of the Raj Soin College of Business currently work at Wright-Patterson. The relationship between Wright State and Wright-Pattersons recruiters of business administration professionals includes Air Force specific workshops, recruiting days and interviews, all conducted by base personnel at the college.

Students at the College of Business complete an average of five capstone projects at Wright-Patterson each year as a part of the masters degree programs in Information Systems and Logistics and Supply Chain Management.

The college has also offered specialized workshops on business topics for the Air Force, the most recent one being the Seminar on Creativity, Innovation, Teamwork and Leadership at the Life Cycle Management Center in 2017.

About 200 graduates of the College of Liberal Arts are employed at the base. And the college has also placed interns at Wright-Patterson, including at the Air Force Institute of Technology, the National Museum of the United States Air Force, the Advanced Technical Intelligence Center, the International Affairs Office, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency and the Civil Engineering Group.
