Identification of Mycobacterium smegmatis Surface Proteins for Stimulation of Anti-Mycobacterial Killing Activity of Macrophages

Creator:: Islam, Sabrina
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis (M. avium) is a ubiquitous, acid-fast organism found in water and soil. This opportunistic pathogen is a common causative of pulmonary diseases in immunocompromised individuals and prevalent infection in HIV/AIDS patients. As a primary defense response against infection, immune cells such as macrophages phagocytize M. avium...

Advancements in Phytoremediation, Dosimetry, and Environmental Radiological Protection: Integrating Endemic Plants, Anatomically Accurate Phantoms, and Real-world Data for Improved Assessments

Creator:: Hargraves, Joshua T.
Abstract:: The environmental impact of the nuclear industry has prompted the need for innovative remediation strategies and accurate radiological assessments. This paper synthesizes three studies that collectively explore the potential of endemic plant species for phytoremediation, the development of anatomically accurate phantoms for precise dosimetry calculations, and the critical evaluation of...

Reversible Covalent Binding of Desferrioxamine B (DFOB) to 2 Polystyrene Microspheres for the Chelation of Aqueous Iron Citrate

Creator:: Touma, Jad G., Kelly, Christine, Coblyn, Matthew, Jovanovic, Goran N., and Schilke, Kate
Abstract:: Desferrioxamine B (DFOB) was reversibly and covalently conjugated to polystyrene microspheres via N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP) crosslinker. DFOB retained post-immobilization activity with at least 89% able to bind Fe(III)-citrate under pH 7.4 and a citrate:iron molar ratio = 100:1. Comparing iron capture by DFOB-activated beads and sulfhydryl (−SH) control beads demonstrated...

“I Want a Chocolate Milkshake:" Pharmacy, Spirituality, and Palliative Care

Creator:: Arounpradith, Alena N.
Abstract:: How can healthcare providers, particularly pharmacists, help palliative care patients cope with the inevitability of death? This thesis reviewed how spirituality and religious beliefs can be utilized as key coping strategies for many patients and their loved ones regarding various stressors associated with facing mortality in palliative care. In the...

Understanding Software-2.0: A Study of Machine Learning library usage and evolution

Creator:: Dilhara, Malinda, Ketkar, Ameya, and Dig, Danny
Abstract:: Enabled by a rich ecosystem of Machine Learning (ML) libraries, programming using learned models, i.e., Software-2.0, has gained substantial adoption. However, we do not know what challenges developers encounter when they use ML libraries. With this knowledge gap, researchers miss opportunities to contribute to new research directions, tool builders do...

Narratives of Motherwork, Agency, and Resilience: An Oral History of Afghan Immigrant Mothers in the Pacific Northwest Diaspora

Creator:: Rezai, Fatima
Abstract:: Using intersectional, matricentric feminist of color approaches, this study interrogates the particularities of Afghan immigrants' mothering experiences—as one of the hidden facets of their lived experience—in the United States from a life-course perspective. Using a combination of feminist oral historical approaches, semi-structured interviews, and participant observation, this thesis explores the...

Investigating Time-Digital-Converters for Hardware Security in FPGAs

Creator:: Lytikov, Daniil
Abstract:: In this comprehensive thesis, we present a series of experiments and findings that highlight the critical importance of TDC Voltage Sensors in the hardware security domain. Our research begins by introducing a novel self-calibrating module, demonstrating its efficiency through preliminary calibration tests. We then delve into the Peak-to-Peak tests, which...

Host and Pathogen Genetics in the Sharp Eyespot Disease of Wheat

Creator:: Liu, Jiang
Abstract:: Wheat sharp eyespot (SES), caused by the soil-borne fungus Rhizoctonia cerealis is a common stem disease of wheat globally. The disease caused a severe and extensive epidemic throughout the Willamette Valley of Oregon in 2014 and has remained one of the most important wheat diseases in this region. However, litte...

The Disinformation Dozen and Media Misinformation on Science and Vaccinations

Creator:: Mabrey, Benjamin E.
Abstract:: The COVID-19 pandemic has shed a light on the need for people to trust in medical science. With the need for 70% of Americans to be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity but 30% have reported vaccine hesitancy, now more than ever do we need to redouble our efforts to ensure...

Decentralized Multi-Robot Exploration with Sparse Communication through Deep Imitation Learning

Creator:: Senewiratne, Yomal K.
Abstract:: We present a method for decentralized, multi-robot exploration in adverse environments where communication is minimal. A key conceptual feature of our method is enabling implicit coordination between robots by training a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as a heuristic for planning using Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS). Our method consists of...
