Lee Hermiston, The GazetteSEPTEMBER 16, 2015 | 6:16 PMJohnson, a Cedar Rapids-based independent business consultant who spearheaded the creation of the organization.Johnson said his efforts to address community violence took a turn when he saw a headline about a think tank in a newspaper last month. That led him to contact Cedar Rapids Police Chief Wayne Jerman to discuss forming such an organization in Cedar Rapids.Jerman said he was immediately on board with the idea of tackling issues from more than just a law enforcement approach.“It’s a societal issue,” Jerman said to the group. “There’s not one single issue that has brought us to where we are today.”Jerman and Johnson then began contacting leaders in the community who would be a part of the think tank. Those efforts were accelerated last week in the wake of two homicides and other acts of violenceThe think tank will include representation from various organizations within the city, including law enforcement agencies, health care officials, the faith community, education leaders and social service organizations.“The issues that the community faces regarding mental health and violence are not things that can be handled individually,” Johnson said.No specific measures were proposed during Wednesday’s news conference, and Johnson said it will take time before those emerge. He urged community members to submit their ideas — the group eventually will have a Facebook page.“I’m not so focused on quarterly updates,” he said. “I’m not so focused on regular dialogue as much as I am trying to get the broad nature of the effort here to come up with long-standing, doable solutions. As we find them, we’ll communicate that to the community.”Four Oaks CEO Anne Gruenewald, a think tank member, praised the concept and noted it has worked in the past in the aftermath of the devastating Floods “We have to stop talking and start doing,” he said.

Our MissionOur mission is to deliver (high fidelity, validated,) biomechanically accurate modeling and simulation of (physics-based) human activities to assist in biomedical engineering, ergonomic analysis, human performance analysis, human systems integration, and training.Our VisionOur vision is to be the acknowledged world leader in digital human modeling and simulation.Santos Human Inc. is the for profit company licensed to distribute the world's first virtual human computer model and application able to accurately predict human motion. All of the research and development for this application arose from the research at the College of Engineering's Center for Computer Aided Design Virtual Soldier Research program at the University of Iowa. Funded primarily by the US Army, we conduct basic and applied research for creating new technologies dealing with human modeling and simulation. The objective is to create human-like life on the computer, virtual humans and soldiers that can walk, behave, and talk like we do, yet are able to answer questions in the virtual world. We allow the virtual soldier to experience the product in the virtual world and provide the user with feedback. Our group is one of the largest groups conducting this type of multidisciplinary research consisting of faculty, professional staff, scientists, engineers, clinical researchers, and graduate students who have come together to create this new technology. Our virtual human modeling and simulation environment is called Santos™.
