Scaling the Potential of Vertical Farming Going into 2025 and Beyond

  Matthew P Kearney Scaling the Potential of Vertical Farming Going into 2025 and Beyond      Vertical farming may seem like something out of a futuristic movie, but they are very real in today’s agricultural industry. Vertical farming may promote a stronger relationship between urbanization and sustainable crop production. Based on recent innovations across agriculture and technology, vertical farming has the potential to revolutionize our current farming system. Through the development of vertical farming-based production lines, cities and otherwise unfarmable areas can be provided with fresh, local, and pesticide-free produce. Vertical farming and other adaptations of agriculture are not new ideas, but instead a historic and human process.      These technologies are ready to meaningfully address global food security through the technological and computational advancements in agriculture. Vertical farming has a promising future, which becomes a case...

Not Just Tired: The Darker Side of New Motherhood

  Vrinda Modi Not Just Tired: The Darker Side of New Motherhood “134, we got a suicidal,” the radio crackles. As my EMS crew heads to the apartment, I think back to my training, where there was little instruction on how to help those experiencing suicidal ideation. A middle-aged woman sits on the couch, visibly exhausted and cowering from the police officers surrounding her. Her husband, cradles an infant gently in his arms, his face a mix of concern and helplessness. I turn down my radio, sit beside her, and begin asking questions, careful not to sound interrogative. She confesses feeling suicidal since giving birth three weeks ago, her voice trembling with shame. She hasn’t slept properly in days. Although she has no plan to harm herself, her worsening thoughts drove her to call the suicide hotline. Her mother-in-law enters, coldly urging her to “wrap things up.”  The woman’s shame deepens when she refuses to go to the hospital, embarrassed by the stigma around postpartum de...

Molecules, Models, and Magic: The Exciting World of Computational Chemistry

Vrinda Modi I often spend time in a little cubicle in McLean in the freezing corporate cold wrapped in a blanket in the Hoboken summers sipping on free coffee from the office above. It almost always tastes like chalk, but the routine is so embedded in me. Hence, this is the perfect opportunity to talk a little more about my research in computational chemistry here at Stevens and the advances I expect in the next few years. This field excites me because it bridges my interest in chemistry with modern computing techniques, a powerful tool for advancing our understanding of chemical reactions and molecular interactions. This means we are a dry lab – running simulations on computers. No chemicals, no PPE, just models and algorithms. But why does computational chemistry exist in the first place, especially when chemistry is so rooted in physical matter? The answer is efficiency. Modeling molecules on a computer saves us from ordering chemicals, waiting for deliveries (a delay in chemistry t...
