How the Progression of Nuclear Technology in French Culture Has Led to a More Sustainable Country

Creator:: Moreno, Joel T.
Abstract:: Of the major players in the birth and growth of nuclear technology, France and the United States are two of the biggest. Their glaring differences in culture and political regimes, therefore, have resulted in two very different attitudes toward adoption and implementation of nuclear power. Through extensive literary research, cultural...

An Analysis of U.S. News Media Coverage of E-Cigarettes: Does a Youth Epidemic Make a Difference?

Creator:: Winett, Julia R.
Abstract:: Rates of electronic cigarettes (or “e-cigarettes”) use among youth are so high that the Surgeon General declared them to be of “epidemic proportions” (A Report of the Surgeon General, 2012). If these rates go unchanged, e-cigarettes will likely be responsible for the creation of a new generation of combustible cigarette...

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...

A Bayesian Treatise on the Replication Crisis in Science

Creator:: Gibson, True E.
Abstract:: Over the past decade, it has come to light that many published scientific findings cannot be reproduced. This has led to the replication crisis in science. Many researchers feel that they can no longer trust much of what they read in scientific journals, and the public is becoming ever more...

Development and Optimization of Medicinal Infused Hydrogel Patch and Cloth for the Treatment of Burn Patients

Creator:: Carpenter, Molly E.
Abstract:: Rapid and effective treatment of burn injuries is critical to prevent long term damage. Besides the pain associated with the burn injury due to damage and death of surrounding tissue and cells, there is a large risk for complications, particularly infection, following a burn injury. To address these risks, Meta...

Inter-code Comparison of Time Independent Pulsed Sphere Benchmark Results

Creator:: Northrop, Jordan
Abstract:: The pulsed sphere benchmark problems are a set of physical experiments that have been used to verify Monte Carlo codes and evaluate nuclear data. All Monte Carlo codes rely on benchmark experiments that test the features of the code to verify that the simulations are producing realistic results. In the...

Exposure to the Mycotoxin Zearalenone Impairs Embryonic Development in Zebrafish

Creator:: Sidebotham, Nicole A.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to evaluate the developmental toxicity of three commonly detected mycotoxins in food (deoxynivalenol, patulin, and zearalenone) using the zebrafish (Danio rerio) model. Mycotoxin exposures were carried out at five concentrations (0.0064, 0.064, 0.64, 6.4, and 64 μM). Morphological and photomotor screenings were conducted at 24 hours...

Comparative toxicological assessment of PAMAM and thiophosphoryl dendrimers using embryonic zebrafish.

Creator:: Pryor, Joseph Brian
Abstract:: Dendrimers are well-defined, polymeric nanomaterials currently being investigated for their biomedical applications. Initially, higher generation (size) dendrimers were of interest because of their drug carrying capacity. However, increased generation was associated with increased toxicity. The objective of the present study was to investigate the role of surface charge and generation...

Melee at the Edge of Empire: The Manifestation of the Reservation System in Southwest and Western Oregon 1850-1875

Creator:: Alves, Richard W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to explain why the reservation system manifested so disappointingly for the Native American groups of Southwest Oregon. It seeks to characterize the struggle that raged in Southwest Oregon from 1850 to 1856 between three main groups there: indigenous peoples, white squatters and miners, and...

Impacts of Environmentally Responsible Engineering (ERE) Concepts in a New First Year Engineering Program

Creator:: Smith, Madelyn
Abstract:: This full research paper explores two factors of increasing importance for first-year university engineering curricula: sustainability and diversity. Over the past fifteen years, many universities in the United States have adjusted their engineering programs in response to these two values expressed by industry, professional organizations, and the Accreditation Board for...
