Examining Early Gender Disparities in Academic Performance: A Pre-School Analysis of Gender Differences and Observations in Academic Assessments

Creator:: Snisky, Briana
Abstract:: Executive function (EF) is an extensively researched topic as a predictor for academic achievements for children. Delineated as qualities of self-regulation, EF prepares a child to produce successful behaviors for their learning and social environments. Entering school with sufficient self-regulation skills is proven advantageous for scholarly performance. Within the early...

Role of Nitrated Hsp90 in Schwannoma Cell Survival

Creator:: Kim, Sharon R.
Abstract:: Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) is a genetic tumor disorder caused by mutations that inactivate the gene coding for the Merlin tumor suppressor. Patients with NF2 develop multiple tumors throughout the nervous system, mainly schwannomas, for which there is no cure or effective treatment. In NF2, redox signaling and oxidative stress...

Determination of flavin-containing monooxygenase mRNA levels in mouse lung and liver

Creator:: Lo, Pachida C.
Abstract:: We are developing a flavin-containing (Fmo) knock-out mouse for Fmo2 that will be utilized to elucidate the role of active human FMO isoform 2 (FMO2.1) in xenobiotic metabolism and toxicity. Since FMO2 is primarily expressed in lung this will provide information on how 27% of African-Americans and 5% of Hispanics...

Numerical investigation of aggregate trench-reinforced clay ground improvement to increase bearing capacity of continuous strip foundations

Creator:: Walter, Jakob R.
Abstract:: Compacted aggregate trenches are a method of soil improvement that could be substituted for commonly used aggregate piers in certain geometrical arrangements of shallow foundations. However, this type of ground improvement has little research to support the understanding of their contribution to improved strength of an unimproved clay soil. This...

Mathematical Investigation of Evaporation Synergy in Bi-Texture Soil Columns as a Function of Column Width

Creator:: Sumner, Michael J.
Abstract:: Evaporation synergy is a phenomenon that occurs between different classes of soil and allows for a greater amount/quantity of soil water evaporation. 20 of the 66 soil texture class combinations have been shown to exhibit evaporation synergy (Fisher, 2012), however the impact of column width on the functionality of this...

Thin-Film Dielectric Structure of Spin-Coated ZrO2 from Aqueous Inorganic Solution

Creator:: Moreno Luna, Hidekel A.
Abstract:: An inorganic aqueous precursor for the deposition of ZrO2 thin films via spincoating was developed. Hydrolysis and condensation chemistries of ZrOCl₂·8H₂O were used as the principal reactions to guide the synthesis. Refractive index, n, for a film annealed at 300 °C at 550 nm was measured to be n=1.97 by...

Freeze-thaw cycles in permafrost soils and their impacts on the climate: A literature review

Creator:: Bergmann, Maya K.
Abstract:: Climate change is occurring at an increasingly rapid rate, with impacts heightened in the cold regions of the world including the Arctic. Warming effects are widespread, with one impacted process – freeze-thaw cycles – increasing in frequency and potentially triggering additional changes in permafrost soils that have previously acted as...

Moral Disagreement and Moral Genealogy : Two Sources of Empirically-Based Epistemological Challenges to Robust Realism

Creator:: Pho, Alexander
Abstract:: I defend robust realism from arguments that raise epistemological challenges to it based on considerations about either moral disagreement or the genealogy of our moral beliefs. The first argument is the “Argument from Conciliationism,” which contends that the moral disagreements that obtain between moral peers give us reason to believe...

Using the Rotorwash of a Quadcopter Drone to Remove Dust from a Solar Panel

Creator:: Holman, Samantha K.
Abstract:: The electrical output of solar panels is reduced when dust covers the panels, but the air movement produced by a flying drone can be used to remove this debris. This research project will study the effectiveness of a quadcopter drone in dusting a solar panel. A solar panel was covered...
