Identification and characterization of type III effector proteins in plant-associated bacteria

Creator:: Thomas, William J.
Abstract:: Symbioses between microbes and multicellular eukaryotes are found in all biomes, and encompass a spectrum of symbiotic lifestyles that includes parasitism and disease, commensalism, and mutually beneficial interdependent host-microbe relationships. Regardless of outcome, these symbiotic lifestyles are governed by a complex molecular "courtship" between microbe and potential host. This courtship...

Chemopreventative and chemotherapeutic properties of whole cruciferous vegetables and phytochemical components in acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma

Creator:: Shorey, Lyndsey E.
Abstract:: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) encompasses a spectrum of lymphoid progenitors that have undergone malignant transformation and clonal proliferation at various stages of differentiation. Some cases of ALL have been documented to have prenatal origins and in particular neonatal exposure to various environmental pollutants is associated with increased disease risk, including...

Privacy-Sensitive Robotics

Creator:: Rueben, Matthew R.
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on personal privacy in human-robot interaction, which we call "privacy-sensitive robotics." Our understanding of "privacy" is very broad, including not just information privacy but also physical, psychological, and social privacy. We begin by surveying the scholarly literature on privacy and talking about why it applies to interactions...

Making the Unconscious Unconscious : Reclaiming Microinteractions for People with Motor Disabilities

Creator:: Lazewatsky, Daniel A.
Abstract:: Numerous diseases and injuries can limit a person's ability to perform everyday tasks -- things like getting dressed, bathing, and eating. Anything that requires physical activity can be affected; even simple things like turning on the lights can become difficult or impossible. Until recently, the only way for a person...

Description and analysis of dietary preference of lingcod in the nearshore zone, Oregon

Creator:: Tinus, Craig A.
Abstract:: The lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus) is an important groundfish species in both recreational and commercial fisheries of the Northeastern Pacific. It is a large, fast-growing, generalist predator of invertebrates and fishes. In response to concerns that lingcod may limit populations of rockfishes (Sebastes spp.), I compared the diets of 375 adult...

Evaluating Multi-objective Trade-offs in Mature Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) Stands of Western Oregon

Creator:: Williams, Neil G.
Abstract:: Contemporary forest management involves a more extensive and diverse suite of management objectives than was the case throughout much of the Twentieth Century. Heightened public and political awareness of local and global biodiversity decline, and interest in arresting these trends, has increased the emphasis on broad-based biodiversity conservation as an...

Studies of non-mevalonate isoprenoid biosynthesis : the 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate isomeroreductase (DXR) mediated reaction

Creator:: Woo, Youn-Hi
Abstract:: This dissertation details the investigation of an alternate pathway to isoprenoids that occurs in plants and microorganisms, the non-mevalonate pathway. This exploration of the pathway focuses on the second step, the conversion of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate (DXP) to 2-C-methylerythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) by the enzyme DXP isomeroreductase (DXR). These studies led to an appreciation...

High-Dimensional Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback

Creator:: Curran, William
Abstract:: State-of-the-art personal robots need to perform complex manipulation tasks to be viable in complex scenarios. However, many of these robots, like the PR2, use manipulators with high degrees of freedom. High degrees of freedom are desirable from a functionality standpoint, but make the learning task more difficult by adding a...
