  • A (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and Glutaraldehyde Functionalized Cellulose Surface for Immunoassays

    Creator:
    Harley, William
    Abstract:
    The detection of biomolecules is critical for clinical diagnostics but requires specialty labor and high cost. The use of microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) for bioassays is simpler and cheaper but has low sensitivity. Improved immobilization of antibodies onto cellulose is demonstrated through surface functionalization with APTES and glutaraldehyde. The...

  • Quantification of Propofol in Blood Plasma and its Application to Future Clinical Research in Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine

    Creator:
    Bemis, David J.
    Abstract:
    High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry coupled with filtration, centrifugation, and other common sample preparation techniques offers a rapid and robust method for separating and quantifying propofol, a commonly used anesthetic, from human blood and its synthetic analogs. Method development is important for not only optimizing separation and quantification for a...

  • Gold Nanoparticles as Thiophenol Detection Probes

    Creator:
    Pond, Emily
    Abstract:
    The development of simple, rapid, and sensitive methods for thiophenol detection is of great importance in various fields, including environmental monitoring and food quality. Here, we present a novel approach for the colorimetric detection of thiophenols using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as the sensing platform. AuNPs aggregate in the presence of...

  • The Past, Present, and Future of American Election Security: A Survey

    Creator:
    Read, Lyell
    Abstract:
    The widespread adoption of computerized systems around the turn of the century as a means of more efficiently conducting elections introduced more issues than these computer systems were intended to address. Though many of these flaws were not considered for years or decades after the introduction of digital election infrastructure,...

  • Mobile Cryptographic Coprocessor for Privacy-Preserving Two-Party Computation

    Creator:
    Kulp, Gabriel
    Abstract:
    Multi-party computation (MPC) is a field of study focused on devising cryptographic protocols that allow participants to learn the output of some function of their private inputs without trusting a third party to perform the computation. This is usually done at a large scale between data centers, with little emphasis...

  • Disability to Super-Ability: Issues Along The Human Enhancement Spectrum

    Creator:
    Oakes, Ian R.
    Abstract:
    Advancements in the field of medical and computer technology promise a new age of human enhancement technology (HET). These technologies may be aptly applied to existing Assistive Technology (AT), which was created to ameliorate disability, moving one up the spectrum of ability. This study aimed to determine how these technologies...

  • A Brief Introductory Guide to the Discrimination Faced by the Asian American Community from the 19th Century to the Present

    Creator:
    Gulbrandson, Tayler
    Abstract:
    This project will act as a resource in secondary schools and workplaces to help facilitate discussion of discrimination and racially motivated crimes against people in the AAPI community. Decades of oppression have led us to the current oppression of Asian Americans, notably showcased during the COVID-19 pandemic. This project highlights...

    Le, Vivian T.
    Abstract:
    The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine...

  • Machine Learning and Optimization Applications in Agriculture

    Creator:
    Molotkov, Alexander
    Abstract:
    The ever-increasing global population presents looming problems for the field of agriculture. Global food demand will, at some point, increase to the point where there is not enough crop-ready land to keep up. This creates an additional incentive, other than economics, for growers to increase their yield-per-acre and make sure...

    Abstract:
    Asians are a minority group that are scarcely represented throughout Hollywood and the film industry. Even when there is some type of inclusion, they are often subjected to stereotypes that have been perpetuated for decades. This contributes to shaping how Asian and Asian Americans are perceived, as well as the...
