In 2007, at a heavily hyped press event in San Francisco, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs stood on stage and unveiled a revolutionary product that not only broke the mould but also set an entirely new paradigm for computer-based phones. The look, interface and core functionality of nearly every smartphone to come along since is, in some form or another, derived from the original iPhone’s innovative touchscreen-centric design.
Among some of the ground-breaking features was an expansive and responsive display from which to check email, stream video, play audio, and browse the internet with a mobile browser that loaded full websites, much like what is experienced on personal computers. Apple’s unique iOS operating system allowed for a wide range of intuitive gesture-based commands and eventually, a rapidly growing warehouse of downloadable third-party applications.
Most importantly, the iPhone reoriented people’s relationship with smartphones. Up to then, they were generally geared toward businesspeople and enthusiasts who saw them as an invaluable tool for staying organized, corresponding over email, and boosting their productivity. Apple’s version took it to a whole other level as a full-blown multimedia powerhouse, enabling users to play games, watch movies, chat, share content, and stay connected to all the possibilities that we are all still constantly rediscovering.

Giao diện, giao diện và chức năng cốt lõi của gần như mọi điện thoại thông minh ra đời kể từ đó, dưới hình thức này hay hình thức khác, đều bắt nguồn từ thiết kế lấy màn hình cảm ứng làm trung tâm sáng tạo của iPhone ban đầu. Trong số một số tính năng đột phá là màn hình mở rộng và phản hồi nhanh để kiểm tra email, truyền phát video, phát âm thanh và duyệt Internet bằng trình duyệt di động tải đầy đủ các trang web, giống như trải nghiệm trên máy tính cá nhân. Hệ điều hành iOS độc đáo của Apple cho phép thực hiện nhiều lệnh dựa trên cử chỉ trực quan và cuối cùng là kho ứng dụng bên thứ ba có thể tải xuống đang phát triển nhanh chóng. Quan trọng nhất, iPhone đã định hướng lại mối quan hệ của mọi người với điện thoại thông minh. Cho đến thời điểm đó, chúng thường hướng tới các doanh nhân và những người đam mê, những người coi chúng như một công cụ vô giá để luôn ngăn nắp, trao đổi thư từ qua email và nâng cao năng suất của họ. Phiên bản của Apple đã đưa nó lên một tầm cao mới với tư cách là một cỗ máy đa phương tiện toàn diện, cho phép người dùng chơi trò chơi, xem phim, trò chuyện, chia sẻ nội dung và duy trì kết nối với tất cả các khả năng mà tất cả chúng ta vẫn đang liên tục khám phá lại.

Today, Snyder is seeing the fruits of the collaboration. In a recent issue of the Journal of Comparative Psychology (Vol. 117, No. 3), the research group published the first study of giant panda cub-rearing and separation. The study is the first step in examining the impact of a common breeding practice in China: separating captive cubs before they are six months old so that the mothers will be able to reproduce again sooner. Cubs in the wild stay with their mothers for 1.5 to 2.5 years.
Snyder and her co-authors, including Maple and psychologist Mollie Bloomsmith, PhD, theorize that separating cubs from their mothers too early may harm their social development, and could underlie why so many captive pandas fail to breed. Captive males often show little sexual interest in females or are too aggressive.
The research team has also conducted urinary and behavioral analyses of female giant pandas during the breeding season, which is generally in the spring, and is examining the behavior of giant panda mothers. Graduate student Megan Wilson, who also has worked in Chengdu, is investigating sequences of play-fighting for her dissertation. And former graduate student and Chengdu researcher Loraine Tarou, PhD, examined giant panda cognition.
Tarou, now an assistant professor at Grand Valley State University in Michigan, is the first to examine how captive pandas forage for food and learn to adapt to changes in their environment. She compared her findings with the cognition of the spectacled bear and found that while both use spatial memory to find food, the spectacled bears used visual cues the pandas did not pick up on.
The finding indicates that giant pandas' reliance on spatial memory alone may cause them to have difficulty when their food sources are abruptly changed or moved--a big problem for an animal that consumes nearly 30 pounds of bamboo a day.
While such basic research may not have immediate application, says Tarou, it is contributing to scientists' growing knowledge of the species.
