Lymph (from Latin, lympha meaning "water") is the fluid that flows through the lymphatic system, a system composed of lymph vessels (channels) and intervening lymph nodes whose function, like the venous system, is to return fluid from the tissues to the central circulation. Interstitial fluid – the fluid between the cells in all body tissues – enters the lymph capillaries. This lymphatic fluid is then transported via progressively larger lymphatic vessels through lymph nodes, where substances are removed by tissue lymphocytes and circulating lymphocytes are added to the fluid, before emptying ultimately into the right or the left subclavian vein, where it mixes with central venous blood.

Since the lymph is derived from the interstitial fluid, its composition continually changes, because the blood and the surrounding cells continually exchange substances with the interstitial fluid. It is generally similar to blood plasma, which is the fluid component of blood. Lymph returns proteins and excess interstitial fluid to the bloodstream. Lymph also transports fats from the digestive system (beginning in the lacteals) to the blood via chylomicrons.

Bacteria may enter the lymph channels and be transported to lymph nodes, where the bacteria are destroyed. Metastatic cancer cells can also be transported via lymph.

The Laboratory for Interactive Learning Technologies (LILT), a research group in the Department of Information and Computer Sciences (ICS) of the University of Hawaii at Manoa, pursues a diverse portfolio of cognitive science, human-computer interaction, and social sciences approaches to technology-supported learning, collaboration and online communities. Currently LILT has a strong focus on studying how technology affordances support social processes of learning, ranging from the meaning-making dialogues of small groups to supporting reflective practice in online communities. LILT members are also pursuing new directions in wireless and mobile technologies for education.

The Collaborative Representations project, led by LILT director Dr. Daniel Suthers examines how participants appropriate and are influenced by the affordances of collaborative learning software, and develops strategies for embedding such technologies in educational practice. Dr. Violet Harada and Dr. Suthers co-direct Hawaii Networked Learning Communities (HNLC), studying the use of online community software in support of educators distributed throughout the islands. The software is also being applied to university teaching, with the assistance of Dr. Samuel Joseph and several students. Dr. Joseph leads projects related to wireless and mobile technologies in learning, including second language vocabulary learning and next generation wireless applications. LILT also supports education and outreach efforts related to the marine ecosystems of Hawaii.

Situated halfway between North America and Asia, LILT maintains relationships with both geographic communities of researchers. For example, Dr. Suthers serves on committees of the Asia-Pacific Society for Computers in Education (APSCE) and the International Society of the Learning Sciences (ISLS). He is executive associate editor of the APSCE journal Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning and associate editor of the ISLS International Journal of Computer Supported Collaborative Learning. Dr. Samuel Joseph is a former resident of Japan and continues to collaborate with Japanese companies. Ravi Vatrapu's research explores the influence of culture on the interpretation and use of social affordances of online learning environments.
