technologically mediated landscapes examining the adaptive benefit of the early oldowan

tool production is intrinsically tied to the evolution of our species as it allows us to occupy nearly every environment on the planet the widespread production of sharpedged tools known as the oldowan 26 million years ago is regarded as a major adaptive leap as it may have fundamentally changed the ecology of our ancestors this major adaptative shift resulted in a change in diet enhanced ecological versatility for a range of environments and ultimately the proliferation of the human lineage across the globe however it remains unclear if the emergence of oldowan technologies resulted from a watershed innovation or if it represents a technological continuity of the tool repertoire of apes the olaf project aims to determine the adaptive significance of the appearance of the oldowan by implementing a new set of theoretical tools while shifting the scale of archaeological analysis from the site to a broader landscape level olaf will use agentbased modeling to directly investigate the relationship between stone tool use environmental factors and site formation processes at the landscape scale and generate concurrent expectations for how homininenvironment interactions produce patterns in the archaeological record in parallel we will reconstruct the portions of the ledi geraru ethiopia research area where sediments have preserved the 26millionyearold artifact and fossilrich paleolandscape over an area of 33 square kilometers agentbased models that are tailored to local data will validate or reject predictions concerning mobility diet or space use olaf will thus provide a comprehensive understanding of the toolmediated foraging behaviors of the earliest oldowan tool makers allowing us to examine the adaptive benefits of tool use at the dawn of humanity

engineering synthetic mechanotransduction through nucleocytoplasmic transport

our understanding of cell biology has reached the point in which cells can be exogenously engineered to carry out specific tasks this is typically applied to generate gene circuits that respond to biochemical interactions between specific molecules however cells sense not only biochemical but also mechanical signals in the process of mechanotransduction here we propose to reengineer cell mechanotransduction from scratch in a manner that is not based on any endogenous cell signalling pathway we will achieve this by harnessing our novel findings that force application to the cell nucleus regulates transport through nuclear pore complexes npcs in such a way that proteins can be made to translocate to the cell nucleus with force by appropriately tuning their active and passive transport properties first we will implement a mechanosensing element involving a precise understanding of the mechanical parameters regulating nucleocytoplasmic transport and subsequent design of molecules with optimal mechanosensitivity that is forcedependent nuclear localization second we will implement a control element enabling a system to control to what extent and for how long force reaches the nucleus and triggers subsequent mechanosensing finally we will implement a functional element by which mechanosensitive molecules will be engineered to trigger the transcription of specific genes in the nucleus as a proofofconcept we will apply this system to reengineer three main properties of fibroblasts and mesenchymal cells matrix remodelling migration and epithelialmesenchymal plasticity all involved in pathological responses to altered tissue mechanics this project will deliver synthetic mechanotransduction a novel tool that will be orthogonal and compatible with existing cell engineering approaches further it will provide an answer to the fundamental question of how a functional biological mechanotransduction system can be generated de novo

transition from transport reindeer herding to reindeer pastoralism a study of indigenous governance during change

aboriginal societies around the world have independently transitioned their production mode in northern eurasia the transition manifested itself in a movement away from transport reindeer herding towards reindeer pastoralism from the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries although this was one of the most significant changes affecting circumpolar people across the region much remains unknown about the drivers of this transition and even less about its consequences for indigenous governance and social relations northern fennoscandia was one of the first regions to witness the transition and the indigenous sami of northern sweden are an especially suitable case for addressing these gapsthe historical sources are exceptionally rich and sami are a very interesting case because reindeer pastoralism developed in a foraging culture with many households continuing as hunters and fishers even after the transition dominated society a central assumption is that the transition to reindeer pastoralism was induced by market opportunities transrein builds on the hypothesis that the transition of these societies was driven by concomitant selfgoverned responses as the transition progressed and will advance research about indigenous reindeerherding societies beyond the state of the art by pursuing the following three objectives1 create a detailed depiction of the transition from transport reindeer herding to reindeer pastoralism among indigenous sami focusing on governance of natural resources andfor the first timeits effect on social relations and significantly deepen our understanding of indigenous governance 155018002 identify common forces behind the transition through comparisons with other reindeerherding societies in eurasia that underwent the same transition3 place the transition in two wider contexts the transitions from foraging economies to pastoralism in other societies and the transition in a european context of early modern agrarian change
