ATLANTA, GA, February 18, 2014 (Press-News.org) Visix is honored to receive a Bronze DSE Content Award for their Western Iowa Tech Community College (WITCC) digital signage design. Robert Brown, Creative Content Artist for Visix, won the award for his custom interactive wayfinding and traditional digital signage for the school.
"Each year at DSE, they award the best in ground-breaking creative projects, and I'm honored to have been recognized," says Brown. "We always aim to bring a unique design approach to each project that not only meets the customer's technical and branding requirements, but will engage the audience to produce true return on investment for the client. Working with WITCC, we had a terrific opportunity to incorporate our expertise in both traditional visual communications and wayfinding techniques."
WITCC wanted both traditional digital signage and interactive wayfinding in a single design for 13 displays and one video wall placed throughout their five core buildings near main entrances. The objective was to provide daily announcements with an option for interactive wayfinding to save time and effort for students and visitors, as well as alleviating the burden on their information desk. Visix created a branded layout with a hot spot that switches to a custom interactive wayfinding map, as well as coordinated content layouts and message backgrounds for the traditional content.
The annual Digital Signage Expo Content Awards honor innovative and compelling content created for digital signage and digital out-of-home networks. All nominated content will be judged on the following criteria: creative relevance, production quality and intended mission.
Digital Signage Expo announced the winners of its Apex and Content Awards for 2014 at is 5th Annual Awards Dinner at the Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino on Wednesday, February 12. Nearly 100 entries across 11 categories made up the field of Content Award nominees.

Mechanism of dengue virus entry into cells
2014-02-18
WASHINGTON D.C. Feb. 17, 2014 -- Dengue fever, an infectious tropical disease caused by a mosquito-borne virus, afflicts millions of people each year, causing fever, headache, muscle and joint pains and a characteristic skin rash. In some people the disease progresses to a severe, often fatal, form known as dengue hemorrhagic fever. Despite its heavy toll, the prevention and clinical treatment of dengue infection has been a "dramatic failure in public health compared to other infectious diseases like HIV," said Ping Liu of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. ...

Finding ways to detect and treat Alzheimer's disease
2014-02-18
WASHINGTON D.C. Feb. 17, 2014 -- Alzheimer's disease has long been marked by progress -- but not the kind of progress the medical community seeks. It is the most common form of dementia among older Americans, and its risk increases with increasing age; for those living with the disease, its ravages get worse over time; and as we move into the 21st century, it will place a greater and greater burden on society. The number of Americans living with Alzheimer's has doubled since 1980 and is expected to triple again by 2050.
Sadly, Alzheimer's disease has been the least prone ...

1. Aortic valve replacement improves function but may not improve quality of life
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) improves functional status but may not improve overall quality of life, according to an article being published in Annals of Internal Medicine. Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease in developing countries and it affects up to 3 percent of adults older than 75. In recent years, TAVR has emerged as an alternative treatment to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for high-risk or inoperable patients with symptomatic ...
Stress hormones in traders may trigger 'risk aversion' and contribute to market crises
2014-02-18
High levels of the stress hormone cortisol may contribute to the risk aversion and 'irrational pessimism' found among bankers and fund managers during financial crises, according to a new study.
The study's authors say that risk takers in the financial world exhibit risk averse behaviour during periods of extreme market volatility – just when a crashing market most needs them to take risks – and that this change in their appetite for risk may be "physiologically-driven", specifically by the body's response to cortisol. They suggest that stress could be an "under-appreciated" ...

2014-02-18
