A Metabolomics Driven Investigation of Polyamine Metabolism During Adipogenesis

Creator:: Hughes, Taylor Neil
Abstract:: Obesity is achieved at the point where fat accumulation begins to exert deleterious effects on an organism. The human body accrues fat when there is an energy imbalance occurring, where caloric intake exceeds expenditure.Many anti-obesity drugs used in the past have had undesirable side effects, and currently there is a...

The 10.0 Guide to Reducing the Risk of Lower-Extremity Injuries Among Female NCAA Gymnasts

Creator:: Dagen, Lacy M.
Abstract:: An Injury Prevention Program Designed to Reduce the Risk of Lower-Extremity Injuries within Women's NCAA Gymnastics Teams. Grounded in a behavior change perspective using an integrated theory model that combines the Health Belief Model and the Theory of Planned Behavior, the culmination of this project is a lower-extremity injury prevention...

Towards Resolving Functional and Evolutionary Mysteries of the Large and Heterozygous Genome of Hop (Humulus lupulus) and the Cannabaceae Family Using Genomic Data Science

Creator:: Padgitt-Cobb, Lillian K.
Abstract:: Hop (Humulus lupulus L. var. lupulus) is a diploid, dioecious plant with an extensive history of cultivation and use in brewing, as a textile, and for its therapeutic properties. Hop is prized for its ability to produce a variety of aromatic and flavor compounds, as well as compounds with anti-microbial...

Gender Matters : The Perspectives and Experiences of Living Unit Staff in Juvenile Correctional Facilities

Creator:: Galardi, Tasha Randall
Abstract:: Front line staff members in youth correctional facilities are generally the primary adults in the lives of incarcerated young people. In many ways, they serve as surrogate parents who may promote positive development while holding delinquent youth accountable for their actions. They accomplish these often conflicting goals through the provision...

Applications of Silicone Wristbands to Improve Personal Chemical Exposure Assessment

Creator:: Dixon, Holly M.
Abstract:: Silicone wristbands are easy-to-wear passive samplers that have been readily adapted into environmental health studies since first reported in 2014. Wristbands can be worn during normal daily activities and sequester a wide range of bioavailable organic chemicals. This dissertation includes a thorough review of silicone wristband technology, as well as...

Soil Development and Organic Carbon Stocks Across a Lithosequence in the Perhumid Coastal Temperate Rainforests of Southeast Alaska

Creator:: Fedenko, Jennifer M.
Abstract:: The perhumid coastal temperate rainforests of southeast Alaska contain an abundance of soil organic carbon (SOC) that has accumulated in a wet, cool climate where forest fire disturbance is minimal and organic matter decomposition rates are low. Coastal temperate rainforests are supported by carbon-rich soils that provide ecosystem services including...

Cooperative Collision Avoidance on Small-sized Quadcopters With Indoor Loco Positioning System

Creator:: Avadhanula, Ritika
Abstract:: Disaster response and surveillance operations will increasingly incorporate Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV)s due to their cost-effectiveness and maneuverability. This trend has driven the research on small-sized quadcopters for varying indoor applications. Small-sized quadcopters' payload and computational capacity limit the usage of complex vision-based collision avoidance algorithms that are employed by...

Comparing vegetation and soils of remnant and restored prairie wetlands in the northern Willamette Valley

Creator:: Taylor, Sara M.
Abstract:: Native prairies of the Willamette Valley are considered among the rarest of Oregon's ecosystems (Clark and Wilson, 2001). As a result of agriculture conversion, urban development and cessation of native burning, Willamette Valley prairies have become highly fragmented and invaded by non-native species, leaving little room for native plant diversity....

Examining the Environmental Behavior and Treatment Efficacy of Titanium Dioxide Nanomaterials in Complex Systems

Creator:: Deline, Alyssa R.
Abstract:: Metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) are manufactured at the greatest rate of any class of nanomaterial due to their wide variety of industrial, commercial, and environmental applications. The sustainable use of MONPs requires a balance of careful consideration of their potential negative environmental impacts with the effective exploitation of their unique...

Structure and Actuation of Cephalopod-Inspired Soft Robots

Creator:: Olson, Gina M.
Abstract:: Cephalopod-inspired soft robot arms have been studied as a new type of manipulator. These arms have been proposed for reach and grab tasks, underwater locomotion via swimming and walking, and robotic surgery. However, the capabilities of existing soft arms are limited to simple motions and light loads. Arm design has...
