description: The study of literary style among Syriac writers is hardly a well-trodden subject, but this volume by Haefeli (his “Habilitationsschrift”) provides a model for such an investigation of an individual author. Drawing on the more progressed fields of Greek and Roman and Arabic rhetoric, he presents Aphrahat’s writing style in terms of a large number of stylistic categories, such as word order, sentence structure, repetition, synonyms, the careful placing of biblical citations, irony, sarcasm, oxymoron, hyperbole, tropes, imagery, and others. Naturally, the work is brimming with examples from Aphrahat’s Demonstrations, both in Syriac and in German. The end of the work includes a useful list of Greek and Persian loanwords in Aphrahat. This volume will repay close study for readers interested in the “how” of early Syriac writing and in the way early Syriac Christianity was presented.

description: Precision agricultural systems use measurements of light reflected from the crop to determine the amount and condition of the vegetation in applying the required amount of nutrient, pesticide or other agrochemicals. Within these systems, light sensor measurements are used by the on-board computer in the tractor to adjust the amount of material applied while moving through the crop. Significant savings in the amount of material costs to the growers and in limiting the chemicals released in the environment have been achieved through precision agricultural practices. To encourage the adoption of precision farming systems by growers and to enhance the manufacture of these systems in California, our research will evaluate the effectiveness of an existing system GreenSeeker produced by NTech Industries, Inc. (Ukiah, CA). Additional spectral measurements using field spectrometers with greater range and accuracy may indicate other regions of light that perform better than the present instrument and will be recommended as modifications to the manufacturer.

description: Tumorheterogenitäten erlangen erst seit kurzem das Augenmerk wissenschaftlicher Betrachtung und es sind bereits auch erste Daten über intra- und intertumorale Heterogenitäten beim Prostatakarzinom berichtet. Die prognostische Wertigkeit zumindest von mTOR zeigt sich lediglich in den Entnahmeorten an der direkten Invasionsfront deutlich während Tumorzentren keine prognostisch aussagekräftige Expression zeigten. In der vorliegenden Arbeit konnte nun zum ersten Mal gezeigt werden, dass die Resultate aus Biomarker Analysen möglicherweise auch vom Entnahmeort der Gewebeproben innerhalb des Tumors abhängig sind. Damit ist die Invasionsfront als maßgeblicher Ort der Tumorbiologie des Prostatakarzinoms charakterisiert Die Ergebnisse können weitere Untersuchungen und Interpretationen von Biomarkern zumindest des Prostatakarzinoms beeinflussen und weisen auf die wichtige Rolle der lokalen Heterogenität bei der Bewertung von Biomarkern hin

description: The semiconductor industry is currently developing a new lithographic technology that will carry it into the future, enabling the printing of features with 30 nm or smaller size. Laser-plasma is a leading candidate for the light source needed to produce the Extreme UltraViolet light used in these next-generation EUV lithography tools. In this project, we address two of the fundamental problems that must be solved in order to enable EUV lithography with laser-produced plasma light sources: increased efficiency of EUV light production and control of debris generated by the source. Many of the leading industries involved in semiconductor manufacturing are based in California. In particular, Cymer Inc is the world leader in light sources for semiconductor manufacturing. As a result of our research, the tools used to fabricate the semiconductors of the future will be cheaper and more reliable, thus helping California companies remain competitive.

description: The scaling specified by Moore’s Law continues, and it is now taking us into the nano-scale technology. However, electronic manufacturing of integrated circuits at deep nano-scale is facing serious challenges given the exponential reduction of the device feature size (currently moving towards 32nm), and options are limited for improving the electronic manufacturing equipment and processes (due to cost and other physical constraints). As a result, we rely heavily on computational techniques, such as resolution enhancement and accurate density and shape control, for improvements in yield and manufacturability during the design and manufacturing process. However, the computational complexity of these techniques is also increasing rapidly, now requiring many hours or days of computation on a large farm of computer workstations or even on supercomputers. This is becoming a serious bottleneck for electronic design and manufacturing in terms of time and cost (including both initial hardware acquisition and continuous operation cost in terms of space and energy consumption). The aim of this proposal is to investigate novel computational platforms and techniques for hardware acceleration (using GPUs and FPGAs) to achieve orders-of-magnitude improvements in runtime and power efficiency for various design for manufacturing (DFM) and yield enhancement techniques. Our goal is to demonstrate a 100X+ performance and power efficiency improvement in these operations using highly automated hardware acceleration, as compared to execution on clusters of general-purpose computer workstations. This will lead to a significant reduction in the overall design and manufacturing time and cost, and enable the use of new DFM and yield enhancement techniques which were previously considered to be computationally infeasible (due to time and cost). The research results from this project will significantly benefit the advancement of the semiconductor industry and the electronic design automation (EDA) industry, which are largely based in the State of California.
Dynamic Forecast Combination and Problems in Multivariate Nonstationary Time Series
Creators: name: Smith, Maddie
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2024

description: It is often the case that decision makers are presented with multiple
 forecasts for the same variable, produced perhaps from different
 forecasting models or experts. While attempting to identify a single ‘best
 forecast’ does offer a valid approach, favourable performance is often
 achieved through combining the N available forecasts in some way. As such,
 forecast combination presents a ubiquitous problem for decision makers in
 a wide array of fields, and provides the first focus of this thesis.

 Although perhaps a seemingly simple problem, the combination of forecasts
 can prove difficult due to issues such as correlation between forecasts,
 and changing statistical properties of forecasters throughout time. In
 order to account for such nonstationary behaviour, it is necessary to
 combine the forecasts dynamically. In this thesis, we propose a dynamic
 linear model based procedure for combining point forecasts. This
 combination procedure works by creating a linearly weighted combination of
 forecasts, where the weights are allowed to evolve temporally in response
 to observed data. Following this, we consider the problem when one or more
 of the N forecasters fails to

 provide a prediction at time t. We discuss how this can also be
 interpreted as a sudden change in forecaster quality, and provide adaptive
 methods for dealing with this.

 As the second focus of this thesis, we examine another problem in
 nonstationary

 time series, pertaining to the autoregressive process of order 1 (AR(1)).
 From two

 bivariate AR(1) processes, we construct a nonstationary oscillating
 stochastic process, for which we derive key theoretical properties.

description: This research is aimed to examine the effect of internal audit functions on the profitability deposit money banks in Edo State. Specifically, it examined the impact of internal auditors' roles in risk management, compliance with internal controls and asset safeguarding on the profitability of these banks. A survey research design was employed, collecting data from staff members of deposit money banks in Benin City. Responses were obtained from 334 participants, and regression method were used to do the data analysis and ANOVA to test the hypotheses. The findings indicated that the role of internal auditors in risk management had a positive and high impact on the profitability of d banks that accept deposits in Nigeria. Additionally, the enforcement of internal control compliance and the application of auditing standards by internal auditors were found to significantly influence bank profitability in Edo State. From the results result generated, it is recommended that banks should employ internal auditors who report directly to the managing director and effectively carry out their assigned roles. This approach would help mitigate various losses and enhance the banks' profitability

subject: soluble HLA

description: HLA peptides, presented on the cell surface, have also been found in small levels in soluble forms in body fluids comprising plasma. Soluble HLA levels have been shown to be increased in many cancer entities. However, the role of soluble HLA for cancer immune surveillance has not been conclusively resolved, which is of tremendous relevance with regard to upcoming peptide-based immunotherapy approaches for cancer treatment. However, inconsistent results across studies based on small and heterogenic cohorts as well as unreliable assay systems hamper the interpretation and evaluation of sHLA in cancer. Thus, the first aim of this thesis was to, refining a method of quantifying of soluble HLA class I in plasma. In a next step we used this assay system to get first insight into the role of soluble HLA in head and neck cancer, an entity with little to no information on soluble HLA to date. To gain insight into the role of soluble HLA, a reliable, sensitive and stable method of quantification was needed. An initially available ELISA protocol yielded values that were too high and too unstable, necessitating establishment and refinement of the procedure. After refinement we could present a protocol yielding reliable, stable levels with high sensitivity similar to those reported in the literature. Using this assay, we quantified HLA class I levels in the plasma of patients with advanced stages of disease (cohort 1), who have been under treatment for a longer period of time, as well as patients with newly diagnosed tumors (cohort 2), who have not yet been treated. In comparison with a cohort of healthy volunteers, we could show an increased concentration of sHLA in the plasma of cohort 1, whereas no increased concentration was observed in cohort 2. In more detailed analysis, we observed that the amount of sHLA in cohort 1 correlates significantly with the tumor mass and the number of metastases in the individual patients as was already reported for other tumor entities. In summary, we here described a reliable method for determining the concentration of sHLA in plasma samples and could show that the concentration of sHLA in the plasma of patients with head and neck tumors was elevated compared to healthy volunteers and correlates with the number of metastases and tumor mass.

Molecular Analysis of BRCA1 Function

description: Mutations in the hereditary breast cancer suppressor gene BRCA1 account for almost half of the familial breast cancers and the majority of the combined familial mammary and ovarian malignancies. Inherited mutations in BRCA1 predispose the carrier at high risk about 60 to 80%, whereas most sporadic breast cancers show lower expression levels of BRCA1. The normal biological function of the protein is essential for understanding the mechanism of disease formation. Presently, BRCA1 is associated with numerous cell functions, including cell cycle control, controlling protein degradation, DNA damage repair, and transcriptional (gene activity) regulation.

 Although mounting evidence has shown that BRCA1 is involved in multiple cellular pathways, its precise biochemical functions in suppressing tumor formation remain to be elucidated. Furthermore, most of the data were obtained from experiments in tissue culture cells or mice lacking functional BRCA1 genes. However, BRCA1 deficient mice die at an early developmental stage, hampering further analysis of the role of the gene in later developmental stages. Therefore, it is imperative to develop better BRCA1animal models, so that the biological functions of human BRCA genes can be dissected.

 To establish a better breast cancer mouse model, we attempt to use a highly advanced gene transfer technique, the lentiviral vectors, to create transgenic mice with tightly-controlled, inducible expression of human BRCA1. Lentiviral vectors have been proven to be a powerful tool in introducing transgenes in a variety of tissue culture or primary cells, as well as in experimental animals with remarkably high efficiency and stable expression. To avoid toxicity of BRCA1 overexpression and to mimic the physiological expression levels of BRCA1, the expression of the transgene will be controlled by administration of an inducing drug in the drinking water of the animals. We hypothesize that such BRCA1 transgene with modulated expression will be functionally equivalent to the mouse BRCA1 gene so that the function of BRCA1 in normal development can be studied. In other proposed experiments we plan to use this transgenic system to study the distinct BRCA1 function domains. We hope to identify those domains that can reconstitute the function of full length protein.

 This project will shed light on both basic breast cancer pathogenesis research and gene therapy, because BRCA1 mutants found in human breast cancers can be readily studied using this system. Successful selection of protein domains of BRCA1 that can recapitulate the full-length gene will deepen our understanding of the function and structure of the tumor suppressors. This could lead to the use of smaller BRCA1 fragments as therapy targets to prevent cancer progression.

description: This study examines the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in Rwandan banks, emphasizing challenges, opportunities, and impacts on financial performance and governance. A qualitative methodology was employed, analyzing secondary data from regulatory reports, academic literature, and financial statements using thematic coding, chi-square tests, and regression analyses. Major findings reveal significant challenges, including limited technical expertise (χ² = 25.47, p < 0.001) and high compliance costs, but also highlight opportunities such as technological investments and capacity-building initiatives, which show a strong positive impact on compliance (R² = 0.82, p < 0.001). Post-adoption, financial performance improved significantly (ANOVA F(2,45) = 14.37, p < 0.001), alongside governance metrics such as reduced fraud rates (r = −0.67, p < 0.05). The study concludes that addressing systemic barriers while leveraging identified opportunities can facilitate a smoother transition, enhancing Rwanda’s alignment with global financial frameworks. Recommendations include expanding technical training, enhancing infrastructure, and fostering regulatory harmonization.

description: In this workshop, we emphasized the importance of metadata used to describe data repositories, with a focus on the re3data Registry of Research Data Repositories, and the recommendations from the RDA Common Descriptive Attributes of Research Data Repositories. While some of these attributes are straightforward, others are more complicated to represent; thus, the reasons they are more difficult was summarized and time to discuss with participants was allocated. We also covered potential use cases and applications for these metadata. 

 

Desired Outcomes: 

participants have increased familiarity with re3Data features, metadata schema and applications

participants are aware of the Research Data Alliance recommendations on data repository attribute metadata, and how they can be represented within re3Data records

discussions provide insights into the more challenging attributes to represent

repository staff are motivated to update existing records and maintain regularly thereafter

a subset of participants are interested to participate in a follow-on cohort to be supported through updates and provide more in-depth feedback

Bridging AI & Human Cognition for Public Interest: A Human-Centric Co-Governance Framework for Auditing Fairness and Preserving Trust in Digital Ecosystems
Creators: name: Mehri, Meriem
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: As AI technologies continue to reshape societal, economic, and technological landscapes, there is a crucial need to develop governance frameworks that prioritize transparency, fairness, and ethical alignment with human values. This proposal seeks to introduce a co-governance model that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and human cognitive processes to drive responsible and adaptive AI governance across rapidly evolving digital ecosystems. Rather than relying solely on existing frameworks and grading rubrics, which – while beneficial – are insufficient for addressing the full spectrum of risks posed by frontier AI systems, this framework envisions a deeper integration of human factors.Combining multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) for collaborative decision-making with brain/cognitive-inspired fairness auditing and differential privacy, this research proposes a technically rigorous, privacy-preserving governance model grounded in principles of AI alignment. Moving beyond conceptual models, this framework introduces psychometric factors to facilitate human involvement in governance oversight, in order to ensure that AI systems not only meet technical safety requirements but also align with the broader public interest in a sustainable and equitable digital future.Existing AI safety rubrics and assessment schemes provide useful starting points for assessing governance practices but often lack the granularity needed to account for human-AI interaction and alignment with fundamental rights. This proposal builds upon Human-Centered AI (HCAI) literature to craft a governance model that is actionable for policymaking and that positions AI as an ally in advancing public welfare. By embedding socio-technical and cognitive insights into AI frameworks, it envisions a shift from compliance-based algorithmic control to governance approaches deeply rooted in democratic values and ethical integrity.

Key words: AI governance, human-centered AI, fairness auditing, ethical alignment, multi-agent reinforcement learning, differential privacy, socio-technical systems

description: For women at familial risk for breast cancer, early detection and adherence to medical recommendations is particularly critical; however, studies have shown that family history of breast cancer is associated with emotional reactions that may interfere with desirable health practices, including non-participation in prevention and screening programs.

 The proposed study addresses the Breast Cancer Research Program's priority issues involving improved access for underserved populations, specifically women at familial risk for developing breast cancer. Having a first-degree relative affected with breast cancer, and being identified as at high risk for developing the disease may be considered traumatic stressors given the perception of life-threat or injury to self, and witnessing the suffering and expression of distress of a close significant other. Clinical observations about women with a family history of breast cancer have shown them to have emotional reactions including fear of death, feelings of guilt, and unresolved grief and depression, all of which have been found to be barriers to screening and preventive behaviors. However, much remains to be done in understanding the factors that affect at-risk women's attendance to preventive, early detection programs, and compliance with medical recommendations regarding preventive behaviors.

 The proposed study seeks to: (1) examine the factors associated with attendance to multidisciplinary preventive programs such as the UCLA High Risk Clinic; (2) examine the factors that may affect adherence to medical recommendations and preventive health behaviors; (3) assess compliance and Clinic attendance for different groups of at-risk women. The ultimate goal of the proposed study is to aid in the development and modification of programs that would facilitate and improve access to services for women at familial risk for breast cancer, fostering the development of beneficial health behaviors, including preventive measures and early detection screenings.

 The proposed study has the potential to immediately impact prevention and treatment programs for women at high risk for developing breast cancer. The findings from this study may be applied to other at-risk populations. The study is innovative, involving a well-established multidisciplinary team of researchers and practitioners from diverse fields, and presents as an additional strength feasibility of completion, as it involves the participation of a large group of patients, some of whom have been followed at the UCLA High Risk Clinic for several years.

description: "Am Musikwissenschaftlichen Institut der Universität Tübingen sind verschiedene Marksteine auf dem Weg, den die Fachgeschichte in Bezug auf das Sammeln von Instrumenten im zwanzigsten und einundzwanzigsten Jahrhundert ging, nachweisbar: vom Anlegen einer frühen Instrumentensammlung zur Zeit Ernst Fritz Schmids in den 1930er Jahren, über ihr allmähliches Verschwinden und die schließliche Weggabe 1975 bis zur Angliederung einer neuen Instrumentensammlung seit 1999 ausgehend von den Beständen des Privatsammlers Karl Ventzke in der Zeit Manfred Hermann Schmids. Tübingen bietet Gelegenheit, Aspekte, Ansprüche und Motivationen um universitäre Instrumentensammlungen konkret sowie die Instrumentenkunde allgemein in ihren historischen Varianzen konzentriert zu beleuchten."

description: Ethnic differences in the rates at which women have returned to work after undergoing breast cancer surgery have been observed in previous studies. African-American women return to work at a slower and decreased rate as compared with Caucasians. These differences have been attributed to ethnic differences in women’s occupations, with African-American women being employed in more physically demanding work. Little is known, though, about the relationship between the responsiveness of the workplace to women’s needs after undergoing surgery and women’s ability to return to work. Secondly, little is known about the relationship between return to work and quality of life among women who have undergone breast cancer surgery, or how this differs among ethnic groups.

 We will conduct a survey of 180 women to examine racial and other demographic differences in return to work and quality of life after breast cancer surgery. Equal numbers of African-American, Latina, and Caucasian women will be assessed. Women will be recruited from the Women’s Cancer Resource Center's telephone hotline and other support services, as well as from other community locations.

 Data will be entered and analyzed at the researcher partners’ office at UCSF with consultation from UCSF statistical staff. Results from this research will be used to plan intervention research for this population as well as counseling, case management and advocacy

description: Women with breast cancer living in rural areas have less access to psychosocial support than their urban counterparts due to geographic distances from sources of support, inclement weather, and confidentiality concerns in small communities. Videoconferencing can be used to increase access to psychosocial support for women with breast cancer.

 Northern Sierra Rural Health Network (NSRHN) is collaborating with Stanford University School of Medicine to determine whether the technology resources already in place can be used to expand access to support services for women living with breast cancer. The study has three primary aims:

 Aim 1: Determine the feasibility and acceptability of using an existing videoconferencing network to reduce rural/urban inequities in access to psychosocial support for women with breast cancer residing in rural northeastern California.

 Aim 2: To evaluate whether the psychosocial support needs of women with breast cancer living in rural northeastern California, as they are understood by the women themselves, can be met through the use of videoconferencing

 Aim 3: Support the capacity of the communities in the target region to use videoconferencing to improve access to psychosocial support for women with breast cancer.

 We plan to recruit 40 rural women living with breast cancer from Plumas, Modoc, and Siskiyou Counties for the research. Each participant will provide informed consent, complete baseline assessments on validated quality of life measures, participate in 8 weekly support groups conducted by vide conferencing and complete a follow-up assessment that will include a brief interview to elicit feedback about the intervention and the mode of delivery.

 This research has the potential to inform the design and implementation of technology-based intervention that would be readily accessible to rural women with breast cancer. This would tap the potential of technology that is already in use in the nine rural counties served by NSRHN for providing psychosocial support. Our future plans are to disseminate the findings and train health care providers with the hope of establishing one or more types of psychosocial support delivered via videoconferencing as part of routine care for rural women with breast cancer on a continuous basis.
A Community-based Workbook for Helping Rural Cancer Patients

description: Women diagnosed with breast cancer deserve immediate and continuing education and emotional support. When a woman is newly diagnosed with breast cancer, she is faced with extremely difficult decisions about her treatment. Often she must make these decisions quickly, without knowing much about the long-term effects of these choices, and while trying to cope with the fact that she has a life-threatening illness. When a woman is nearing the end of her treatment for breast cancer, she must face the prospect of living day-to-day with the uncertainty of whether her cancer will return.

 In many communities, support groups have been developed by breast cancer survivors or cancer treatment centers to address these needs. In rural counties, however, many women who would like to participate in support groups live too far away or do not have reliable transportation. To respond to this need La Loba, a grass roots breast cancer support group in Nevada County, plans to create a user-friendly workbook/journal that provides facts, figures and personal experiences by other women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. This workbook/journal, entitled "One in Eight", will include such topics as how to relate to doctors and medical technicians, how to talk to family and friends, how to cope with hair loss, energy loss, and other side-effects of chemotherapy. It will include humor and space for personal reflection. Information about local and regional resources, such as books, organizations and public agencies, will help direct women in their search for education about breast cancer and its treatment. The theme of the book will be to encourage and support women taking charge of their lives, being informed of their choices, and participating actively in their treatment.

 Women from this local support group have teamed up with researchers from the Stanford University School of Medicine to form the Sierra-Stanford Partnership. This partnership, between rural breast cancer survivors, rural care providers and researchers specializing in supportive interventions for cancer patients, plans to develop and test the helpfulness of "One in Eight" by offering it to breast cancer patients in Nevada, Sierra, Amador, Placer, and Eldorado Counties in the Sierra Foothills. The rural community partners will write the workbook and will interview patients to receive feedback about the workbook. The research team will determine whether "One in Eight" helps women to better cope with and adjust emotionally to their cancer, and to make better breast cancer treatment choices.

 The hope of the Sierra-Stanford Partnership is to reduce the human and economic costs of breast cancer by reaching rural women who do not have access to current forms of education or support, and help them make the best possible breast cancer treatment choices.

description: This research aims to examine and analyzes the effect of transaction cost of remittances on the remittance inflows to Pakistan for the period 2011-2020, it also studies different economic indicators such as exchange rate and inflation that helps in explaining remittances inflows to Pakistan. Only a small number of studies have investigated the macroeconomic factors of remittances inflows to Pakistan. This study will try to fill that gap and at the end suggest policies while keeping in mind the current economic scenario of the country.
