Characterizing PM2.5 with Different Source Contributions

Creator:: Perez, Allison Mae S.
Abstract:: Ubiquitous fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposures significantly impact global public health, yet little is known about the mechanisms causing these known adverse health effects. Oxidative stress due to PM2.5 associated chemical constituents, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), is a proposed possible mechanism for PM2.5 mediated health effects. Variations in...

Creating and Assessing Cozmo Behaviors for Expressing Emotion

Creator:: Chan, Lilian C.
Abstract:: As human-robot interaction becomes more commonplace, roboticists should understand how robot behaviors are perceived by people to avoid misunderstandings. In our lab, we are exploring the use of a Cozmo as an interactive, break-taking aid in workplace settings. Before our interactive aid can be released into the wild, we must...

Exploring the Effects of Voice Humanness and Canned Laughter on Robot Comedy Performance

Creator:: Bui, Timothy G.
Abstract:: With robots becoming increasingly commonplace in today’s society, we need to find ways to help robots to become better accepted. One common method used to gain acceptance and build rapport is through the use of humor. Currently, research in robot comedy exists, albeit it is fairly limited. Our goal with...

Evaluation of novel swim-up approaches on canine sperm progressive motility, concentration, morphology, and acrosome reaction

Creator:: Lengele, Amber
Abstract:: Introduction: Swim-up has been considered a preferred method for separating non-motile sperm in an ejaculate. However, the long incubation time and equipment necessary for swim-up make this process clinically impractical. It was hypothesized that these problems could be avoided for canine applications with a shorter incubation time at room temperature...

Analysis of the Andalusian and Basque Country Diets as Examples of a Mediterranean Diet

Creator:: Bluhm, Paul Keegan
Abstract:: In response to the growing popularity of the Mediterranean Diet, it is important to understand that there are variations between the diets of the many Mediterranean countries. This is certainly true of the diets in Spain, especially among the younger generations. Therefore, should the term “Mediterranean Diet” be universally applied...

The analysis of kisspeptin neuronal exosomes and their effects on neuronal plasticity of downstream gonadotropin-releasing hormone expressing neurons

Creator:: Ewton, Jessica
Abstract:: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons are able to trigger the release of luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone which control the maturation of oocytes and ovulation which is vital for reproduction. They are the most downstream neurons that project to the median eminence into the pituitary portal where they release GnRH. Modulation...

An evaluation of the establishment and continued effectiveness of the Galápagos National Park and Marine Reserve in Ecuador

Creator:: Asson, Danielle
Abstract:: Conservation of natural resources has become a new watchword of the scientific community. While many terrestrial ecosystems are well protected, marine ecosystems have only recently come to the forefront. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been introduced as a means of protecting biodiversity, commercial stocks, and ecosystem services. There are many...

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...

A Dive into the Pacific Fish Microbiome: Exploration of Antibiotics from a Unique Ecosystem

Creator:: Austin, Molly C.
Abstract:: With the rise of resistant bacterial pathogens, currently prescribed antibiotics are rendered useless. In recent years, marine natural products (MNPs) have emerged as novel sources for drug leads. The ocean is a complex environment where marine animals cohabitate with many, and sometimes harmful microorganisms and viruses, but resist infections. Developed...
