David Hume and the Paradox of Taste

Creator:: Chi, Erik
Abstract:: David Hume’s resolution of the paradox of taste poses an interesting question for us to ponder. Rather than take a purely subjectivist or objectivist view of the topic, Hume strikes a balance between the two positions by upholding two of three statements regarding taste that are widely held to be...

The contact value approximation to the pair distribution function for an inhomogeneous hard sphere fluid

Creator:: Lurie-Gregg, Paho
Abstract:: We construct the contact value approximation (CVA) for the pair distribution function, g(²)(r₁, r₂), for an inhomogeneous hard sphere fluid. The CVA is an average of two radial distribution functions, which each take as input the distance between the particles, |r₂ −r₁|, and the average value of the radial distribution...

LncRNA regulation in mouse lung tumor from dibenzo[def,p]chrysene induced carcinogenesis in a transplacental Nrf2 knockout mouse model

Creator:: Patel, Karan, You, Hyekyoung, Siddens, Lisbeth, and Williams, David
Abstract:: Dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC) is a highly potent, but less prevalent, environmental carcinogen belonging to a class of compounds known as Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). They are highly ubiquitous and arise as a byproduct of natural and anthropogenic combustion processes. Previous studies have documented carcinogenic effects upon in utero exposure of PAHs....

Gene regulatory mechanisms of the lncRNA Fendrr

Creator:: Koehler, Monika
Abstract:: Embryonic development, where organs and major structures begin to develop, requires precise coordination of numerous gene regulatory pathways. Fendrr is an long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that plays a role in regulating gene expression in mesodermal tissues during early embryonic development in mouse. The lateral plate mesoderm (LPM) is an earlier...

Using Skin Phototype to Assess Risk of Vitamin D Insufficiency in Young Women of Color

Creator:: Hassan, Aden, Hyman, Kalilah, and Kerr, David
Abstract:: Vitamin D sufficiency supports cardiovascular health and lower cancer risk. Rates of vitamin D insufficiency vary by racial/ethnic group, in part because skin pigment limits sunlight penetration. However race/ethnicity is an unreliable marker of vitamin D deficiency, given individual differences in skin pigment, or phototype, and other characteristics. Clarifying associations...

Simulating dynein’s powerstroke using Brownian dynamics

Creator:: Capek, Elliott L.
Abstract:: Dynein is a motor protein which transports cargo along tracks inside the cell. Like related motor proteins kinesin and myosin, dynein uses cellular energy to take steps with its two foot domains. Unlike kinesin or myosin, dynein’s stepping pattern is highly varied: it can take steps between zero and 60nm...

Calculating characteristic timescales for environmental decoherence in the presence of thermal gravitons

Creator:: Nelson, Hunter
Abstract:: Different models show the effects of environmental decoherence on a quantum system due to various environments of interest. One important quantity within these models is the decoherence time, which tells us how quickly environments wash away the coherence of local measurements. We can describe this effect as the quantum system...

The Consistent Histories Approach to the Stern-Gerlach Experiment

Creator:: Wilson, Ian
Abstract:: Standard quantum mechanics makes foundational assumptions to describe the measurement process. Upon interaction with a “classical measurement apparatus”, a quantum system is subjected to postulated “state collapse” dynamics. We show that framing measurement around state collapse and ill-defined classical observers leads to interpretational issues, and artificially limits the scope of...

Variation in fin whale songs recorded near Hawaii

Creator:: McCourt, Laura
Abstract:: Marine mammals use acoustics for many life functions, including communication. Male fin whales produce a call around 20 Hz and the pattern of a series of calls can vary based on the individual, geographic region, and season. I examined the variation between songs in fin whales. A glider was deployed...

MicroRNAs miR-221 and miR-181c regulation of liver tumor growth and metastasis in mouse progeny from Dibenzo[def,p]chrysene dosed mothers fed a sulforaphane diet

Creator:: Meedom, Chelsea, Siddens, Lisbeth K., Löhr, Christiane V., and Williams, David E.
Abstract:: Dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and an IARC classified 2A probable human carcinogen. Mouse progeny transplacentally exposed to DBC have been shown to develop lung and liver tumors, with liver tumors developing predominantly in males later in life. Sulforaphane (SFN) is an isothiocyanate that plays a crucial...
