understanding these dynamics requires new statistical tools,” said David S. Matteson a professor and associate chair of the Department of Statistics and Data Science in the Cornell Ann S Bowers College of Computing and Information Science and the ILR School director of the National Institute of Statistical Sciences and one of the paper’s authors “This study introduces a new statistic that utilizes topological data analysis to both quantify fluxionality and to track the stability of particles as they transition between ordered and disordered states.”  which also included researchers from New York University Arizona State University and the University of Iowa blends electron microscopy with AI to enable scientists to see the structures and movements of molecules that are one-billionth of a meter in size at an unprecedented time resolution.  “Nanoparticle-based catalytic systems have a tremendous impact on society,” said Carlos Fernandez-Granda director of NYU’s Center for Data Science and a professor of mathematics and data science “It is estimated that 90 percent of all manufactured products involve catalytic processes somewhere in their production chain We have developed an artificial-intelligence method that opens a new window for the exploration of atomic-level structural dynamics in materials.”  Observing the movement of atoms on a nanoparticle is crucial to understand functionality in industrial applications The problem is that the atoms are barely visible in the data so scientists cannot be sure how they are behaving—the equivalent of tracking objects in a video taken at night with an old camera the paper’s authors trained a deep neural network that is able to “light up” the electron-microscope images revealing the underlying atoms and their dynamic behavior.  “Electron microscopy can capture images at a high spatial resolution but because of the velocity at which the atomic structure of nanoparticles changes during chemical reactions we need to gather data at a very high speed to understand their functionality,” said Peter A a professor of materials science and engineering at Arizona State University and one of the paper’s authors.  “This results in extremely noisy measurements We have developed an artificial-intelligence method that learns how to remove this noise—automatically—enabling the visualization of key atomic-level dynamics.”  The research was supported by grants from the National Science Foundation Get Cornell news delivered right to your inbox This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks The action you just performed triggered the security solution There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase You can email the site owner to let them know you were blocked Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page We have the address for the funeral home & the family on file If you're not happy with your card we'll send a replacement or refund your money The family of Janet May Matteson created this Life Tributes page to make it easy to share your memories © 2025 Langeland-Sterenberg Yntema Funeral Homes Made with love by funeralOne Please select what you would like included for printing: Copy the text below and then paste that into your favorite email application the son of Verlin and Treva (Taylor) Matteson After graduation Larry served in the US Air Force Larry was a machinist for over 30 years at Mercury Marine Elizabeth Matteson of Dalton and Candi (Adam) Kennedy of Fond du Lac;

to the federal funding freeze A family-run farm in south suburban Matteson learned it was losing its federal funding weeks after the bird flu wiped out its entire flock In October, Kakadoodle Farm was informed it would receive a $220,000 grant. But Tuesday, it was suspended due to the Trump administration’s freeze on federal funding The news came weeks after owners MariKate and Marty Thomas lost their flock of 3,000 chickens to the avian flu in January what’s next?” Marty Thomas asked the Sun-Times Friday part of the Resilient Food Systems Infrastructure program The couple was going to use the funds to remodel an old pole barn and turn it into their new distribution center The new distribution center would be used to collect food from other local farmers and ship it to their customers They’d already spent $80,000 on renovations — expecting to be reimbursed with the grant They poured new concrete and installed insulation “We just did the bare minimum necessary for us to start to operating out of that building,” said Marty Thomas We don’t have the funds at all to continue on the project right now.” Two other pending grants also were canceled Marty Thomas said they’re disappointed by the loss but hope the grants eventually will be reinstated though he made it clear they were confident their business would survive without government assistance “I know that we’ll come out on the other side of this stronger than ever before,” he said “We’ve always been willing to use that support from the government when it was available We’ve always been very conscious not to do that because you can’t rely on it.” JB Pritzker called cuts to the programs a “slap in the face” to Illinois farmers “The Trump administration’s refusal to release grant funds doesn’t just hurt farmers in the program fresh produce and other nutritious donations,” Pritzker said in a statement Though the farm remains under quarantine due to avian flu USDA officials will lift the quarantine orders in June adding: “I think we’ll have a party for the reopening.” Despite the challenges, Marty Thomas said they have received “overwhelming” community support.

Matteson was left grappling after a bird flu outbreak wiped out its entire flock Kakadoodle Farm is now looking into how to get back and running after losing its flock of nearly 3,000 hens Owners MariKate and Marty Thomas were first tipped off last week when they walked into their coop and discovered that about 30 hens had died without symptoms The couple initially thought that freezing temperatures were to blame — until the next day USDA officials arrived at the farm Friday and later that day confirmed that the birds had bird flu only about 500 of their hens were still alive USDA officials told the couple their flock was likely infected by wild birds getting into the chicken feed Kakadoodle Farm is an online farmers market that has been delivering organic chemical-free produce to homes in the area since 2020 Marty Thomas said he was aware of the uptick in bird flu cases but never imagined it would hit their farm and this is a natural consequence of that,” Marty Thomas said it’s kind of the environmental tax that you pay.” The flock produced about 2,000 eggs a week for the online marketplace and has resulted in a huge financial loss Now the farm is under a 150-day quarantine, and the owners are seeking help to keep their farm running until they can begin selling again in June the owners hope to build up the flock and construct a new-and-improved chicken coop that will help protect from any future outbreaks ‘Why me?’ or they can ask ‘What’s next?’” Marty Thomas said and beloved member of the Seymour community His life was marked by a profound dedication to

Barry’s Custom Cycle A meeting with a Harley-Davidson rep in the early ’70s inspired him to purchase a commercial building and take on the franchise he relocated his business and became a Harley-Davidson dealer we were still living in a trailer house and not making that much money,” says Dia Matteson We had a bed and breakfast there called Hog Heaven and I remember making beds and doing laundry with my mom We converted two of the rooms into an apartment where we lived and had guests in the other room.” the business started providing stronger financial support for the Matteson family “My dad was always advancing,” Matteson says he would go to 20 groups and he started to learn how to make the business profitable He would take me as passenger and we’d go down to Arizona and go to New Mexico to visit my grandparents.” “I loved the people and I loved the customers I worked at the dealership all through high school and my senior year I was pretty much working full time because I was only taking a couple classes.” Wanting to explore a different part of the world returning home each summer to work at the dealership She wanted to take over her father’s three dealerships so he helped her learn every aspect of the business from the parts department to service advisor to administration roles in accounting “I really liked being at the service counter.” She took on her first management position as service manager when she was 22 years old she secured a loan and purchased her father’s three Harley-Davidson stores “I finished my master’s degree and bought the dealerships all within a couple of months of each other,” she says Denali Harley-Davidson and Kenai Peninsula Harley-Davidson in Anchorage Matteson hired a general manager at the Anchorage store to take over her day-to-day role who is still my general manager,” she says “That freed me up to buy four more locations in Arizona.” At 33 years old she acquired two dealerships and two retail stores in Arizona – Legends Harley-Davidson and Canyon Harley-Davidson but he was a huge part of the business and my development,” she shares “That’s why my store in Arizona is named Legends – to give a nod to my dad and all the legends that came before me I wouldn’t be where I am without his guidance and giving me the opportunity to buy the dealership.” She also credits her mother for being her “prayer warrior.” The Arizona acquisition came with challenges “I didn’t really know the details of the structure of the deal when I bought the stores from my dad,” she says I didn’t hire a lawyer right up front to structure the deal so me and the owner were structuring the deal.” she read books about business valuation and spoke to dealers with acquisition experience at 20 Group meetings “There were a few things I wish I would have known I was learning as I was doing it,” she says “I was able to structure the tax side of it well… It was intimidating but it was also fun and challenging.” Matteson divided her time between Alaska and Arizona “Those stores really needed a lot of attention,” she says about the Arizona Harley-Davidson dealerships “It was harder to build culture in Arizona,” she explains My general manager has worked for us for 20 years My operations manager has been with us for 28 years.” She shares that if she acquired a dealership again she would prebuild a team that would help run her stores We didn’t have a whole team we could fly in to train everybody,” she explains and there’s pros and cons to that with staffing they make money and they stay because they’re part of a family That was a little bit of a challenge in Arizona Not being there all the time and not having anyone there full-time that knew me and knew my culture that was my biggest learning curve to overcome.” the Covid−19 pandemic changed travel and business operations “I was the person flying every two weeks regardless of all the crazy that was going on in the world,” she says when she received an offer and sold the Arizona businesses she is focused on the dealerships in Alaska “If you are someone that thinks that we’ve gotten to a place that’s ‘good enough’ and we’re going to chill here so the dealerships host events to keep the community engaged named after the famous road where House of Harley-Davidson is located The whole point is to support our local community We don’t get a lot of money from organizations to sponsor it We’ll do a scavenger hunt or a punch card that sends people to the businesses that are partnering with us.” House of Harley-Davidson will celebrate its 50th anniversary during the bike week in August Matteson is already planning the logo for apparel and t-shirts The dealership property also offers a campsite for motorcyclists Matteson’s father rebuilt the Anchorage store and added a campsite and shower house but now the dealership is on every ADV rider’s list as a place to camp,” Matteson says some riding from the top of Alaska to South America Matteson has done many rides and solo rides around the country so she understands the importance of needing somewhere to stay or needing service when your bike breaks down “We need to get them in and out as we can,” she says To make sure the dealerships have top-notch service technicians her husband and a 10−year master technician at Volkswagen developed an apprenticeship program that they implemented in 2023 “Making sure we have highly trained technicians learning all the right things.” people could say or feel that we’re a little bit of a monopoly because there’s only one other dealer in our state,” Matteson says I will never be entitled to their business I’m always working to earn and retain business.” Matteson is focused on processes and training “Sometimes you can make things overcomplicated and forget that you need to be training your staff on the perfect process to get a motorcycle back into service,” she says “We want to be able to communicate with our customers and solve the problem faster Keeping the staff we have and making sure they’re happy and trained.” and a lot of things people have no idea that we deal with as owners – threats of lawsuits employment complaints – but at the end of the day I love to feel like I’m accomplishing something.” Barry acquired a Harley Davidson ‘Destroyer’ drag bike to race at our drag strip around 2012 so that people got
