Protagonist: A Choreography of Queer Digitality
Creators: name: Marks, Daniel
Publisher: name: RMIT University

Subjects: classificationCode: 360602
subject: Fine arts

description: Protagonist: A Choreography of Queer Digitality has sought to find a critical inter-relation between queer politics of withdrawal and illegibility, and hidden techno-ideological complexities of digital capture and algorithmic aesthetics.
This project has been undertaken through a series of creative outputs which have investigated the bounds of performance art and choreography, and their intersections with screen-space, sculptural installation, and textual forms. Across live and non-live outcomes, the work has re-configured binary stratifications of score, performance, archive, and anatomy.
With performance decentralised from the singular, temporally isolated body, agency slips into ambiguous states: disintegration of the body’s limits into networked formats implies an integration of bodily autonomy into cybernetic processes of representational feedback and adaptivity.
The research follows in the footsteps of radical body art and underground queer performance, and weaves this history into that of cybernetics and the visual-choreographic logics of surveillance. In the zone between queer illegibility, the politics of representational legibility under digital capitalism and networked surveillance, and the complex unrepresentability of these systems beneath the surface-level of images or interfaces, the project proposes and examines an experimental concept of queer digitality. Through this research, I have developed the queer digitality concept within performative gestures of queer encryption and decryption: an eroticism of regress, limits, and ambiguous control.
The Protagonist, a choreographic diagram which serves as an anchor for the practice and research, is introduced in this project as a model for critically engaging performance’s relations with systems of capture. As a methodological framework informed by intersecting discourses of historically transgressive performance art, performance documentation, and queer contaminations of bodily-representational integrity, the Protagonist locates means of critical intention at the blurry edges of action and artefact. Through the creative work and dissertation, the Protagonist serves as an inter-disciplinary choreography of queer digitality which re-configures complex problems of the body, image, and agency.

description:
In this article, we question whether nanoscience has already matured into a single discipline or whether it retains the character of an interdisciplinary endeavour, involving the natural sciences as well as technology. In search for an answer, the traits of disciplines according to William Bechtel are considered. Arguments in favour of using 'nanoscience', as a singular, or 'nanosciences', as a plural, are elucidated. In terms of objects of study, nanoscience is compared with colloid science. Cognitive abilities are traced back to the parent natural sciences. Finally, in the field of social and institutional organizations, it seems that nanoscience cannot yet compete with traditional disciplines. In future the question about the disciplinary character of nanoscience has to be solved mainly on a sociological level.
Role of Chlorogenic Acids in Controlling Oxidative and Inflammatory Stress Conditions
Creators: name: Liang, Ningjian
name: Kitts, David D.
Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2019

description: Chlorogenic acids (CGAs) are esters formed between caffeic and quinic acids, and represent an abundant group of plant polyphenols present in the human diet. CGAs have different subgroups that include caffeoylquinic, p-coumaroylquinic, and feruloyquinic acids. Results of epidemiological studies suggest that the consumption of beverages such as coffee, tea, wine, different herbal infusions, and also some fruit juices is linked to reduced risks of developing different chronic diseases. These beverages contain CGAs present in different concentrations and isomeric mixtures. The underlying mechanism(s) for specific health benefits attributed to CGAs involves mitigating oxidative stress, and hence the related adverse effects associated with an unbalanced intracellular redox state. There is also evidence to show that CGAs exhibit anti-inflammatory activities by modulating a number of important metabolic pathways. This review will focus on three specific aspects of the relevance of CGAs in coffee beverages; namely: (1) the relative composition of different CGA isomers present in coffee beverages; (2) analysis of in vitro and in vivo evidence that CGAs and individual isomers can mitigate oxidative and inflammatory stresses; and (3) description of the molecular mechanisms that have a key role in the cell signaling activity that underlines important functions.
title: A treatment for viral deception? Automated moderation of COVID-19 disinformation
Creators: name: Haas, Julia
Publisher: name: University of Innsbruck
Year: 2022

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has been accompanied by reports of unprecedented amount of deceptive and false online information with the potential to severely undermine individual and public health as well as the enjoyment of human rights. Both states and internet intermediaries have undertaken unparalleled steps to address this COVID-19 “infodemic”. Indeed, the COVID-19 pandemic may represent a turning point for the governance of the online information landscape in general and the fight against disinformation in particular.
This paper examines responses to disinformation, in particular those involving automated tools, from a human rights perspective. It provides an introduction to current automated content moderation and curation practices, and to the interrelation between the digital information ecosystem and the phenomenon of disinformation. The paper concludes that an unwarranted use of automation to govern speech, in particular highly context-dependent disinformation, is neither in line with states’ positive obligation to protect nor with intermediaries’ responsibility to respect human rights.
title: The Role of Culture in Second Language Learning with Special Reference to the Japanese Students at the International School of Düsseldorf
Creators: name: Mertin, Patricia Anne
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2006

description: This thesis examines the role of culture in English language learning for Japanese students at the International School of Düsseldorf (ISD) and the effect this has on the rate at which these students master English to the level required for academic success. English is the language of instruction in international schools all over the world. Many of multi-lingual multi-cultural students only remain in the school for a few years before their parents are transferred to other assignments by their employers. Non-native English speakers need to master English in order to study successfully and are generally assisted in this by English as a Second Language (ESL) departments. At ISD Japanese students make up 25% of the high school population. It was observed, over a period of time, that these students took longer to reach English competence and exit ESL classes than their peers of other nationalities. This ethnographic study is based on observation of classes in Japanese schools, both in Japan and Germany, together with participant observation, interviews, questionnaires, student responses and case studies at ISD over a period of six years. Data collection concentrated on three key areas the school, the family and friendships. The research includes a close examination of teaching and learning as it is understood in Japanese schools compared with the culture of teaching and learning in an international school. Similarly the role of the family in the lives of young adolescents and their attitudes to friendships is examined. The results show that the culturally determined Japanese norms of teaching and learning, together with the expectations of families and friendships contrast so starkly with those of an international school that often neither the teachers nor the students are able to communicate their needs successfully. The resulting lack of progress is shown to be due to the cultural mis-match of understandings and expectations and leads to a situation which can only be resolved through greater knowledge and understanding of culture and its effects on learning.

description: To effectively assist local communities confronting the unprecedented threats of climate change, it is crucial to understand and model how human systems adapt. Climate change adaptation is inherently endogenous, heavily influenced  by local expectations regarding natural hazards and shaped by the  resources available locally, both at stake and at disposal. Here I present a quantitative economic model of endogenous climate adaptation. The model supports the identification of the main data challenges faced by researchers in this field. These challenges include differences in scales, the largely unobservable nature of data on adaptation investments and  avoided losses, and the concurrent and compound nature of extreme events, which are the primary ways climate change affects our societies. Despite these challenges, the model successfully captures essential  dynamics and offers valuable insights for addressing both research and  policy questions. I conclude by presenting several applications of the model that validate  theoretical predictions and address pressing policy questions.

description: Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a member of the serine proteinase inhibitor (serpin) with antiangiogenic, anti-tumorigenic, antioxidant, anti-atherosclerosis, antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. The PEDF can bind to low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6), laminin (LR), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), and ATP synthase β-subunit receptors. In this study, we aimed to investigate the structural basis of the interaction between PEDF and its receptors using bioinformatics approaches to identify the critical amino acids for designing anticancer peptides. The human ATP synthase β-subunit was predicted by homology modeling. The molecular docking, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, and Molecular mechanics/Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM/PBSA) were used to study this protein–receptor complex. The molecular docking showed PEDF could bind to the Laminin and VEGFR2 much stronger than ATP synthase β-subunit, VEGFR1, and LRP6. The PEDF could effectively interact with various receptors during the simulation. The N-terminal of PEDF has an important role in the interaction with the receptors. The MM/PBSA showed the electrostatic (ΔEElec) and van der Waals interactions (ΔEVdW) contributed positively to the binding process of the complexes. The critical amino acids in the binding interaction of PEDF to its receptors in the MD simulation were determined. The interaction mode of 34-mer PEDF to laminin, VEGFR2, and LRP6 were different from VEGFR1, ATP synthase β-subunit. The 34-mer PEDF has an important role in the interaction with different receptors and these critical amino acids can be used for designing peptides for future therapeutic aims.

title: Asymmetric Large Area Model Biomembranes
Creators: name: Liu, Paige
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

description: All biological cell membranes maintain an electric transmembrane potential of around 100 mV, due in part to an asymmetric distribution of charged phospholipids across the membrane. This asymmetry is crucial to cell health and physiological processes such as intracell signaling, receptor-mediated endocytosis, and membrane protein conformation and function as well as active processes involving flippase and floppase proteins. Despite the biological significance, there are limited studies linking the consequences of lipid asymmetry to critical membrane properties and processes involving ion channels. One reason for this is the scarcity of reliable methods to create artificial membrane systems that incorporate both transverse lipid asymmetry and ion channels. Experimental artificial membrane systems incorporate essential cell membrane structures, namely the phospholipid bilayer, in a controllable manner where specific properties and processes can be isolated and examined in an environment much simpler than living systems. It is of particular interest to study asymmetry in transverse lipid composition across the phospholipid bilayer on such a system to probe the effects of the lipid composition and asymmetric arrangement of these lipids on the physicochemical properties of the membrane. By doing so, an understanding of how membrane asymmetry dictates membrane properties and in turn impacts cellular processes will be achieved. The primary goal of this thesis is to develop a platform for fabricating and characterizing compositionally controlled planar, free-standing, asymmetric membranes. This asymmetry was qualitatively demonstrated using a fluorescence quenching assay, and it has been quantified using a combination of anionic and zwitterionic lipids in concert with a patch-clamp amplifier system. Initial measurements of a transmembrane potential on a partially asymmetric bilayer were found to be between 10 and 25 mV. Increasing membrane charge asymmetry increases the offset voltage, as expected, and also modifies the stiffness of the membrane. These initial successes demonstrate a viable pathway to fabricate and quantitatively characterize asymmetric bilayers that can be extended to accommodate more complex membrane processes in the future.

description: Hydrogels have been used for many applications, including as a mimic for the extracellular matrix (ECM) in cell culture. For example, a hydrogel containing protease-sensitive substrates can be used to create an environment that cells can modify via enzymatic degradation.
In this study, we propose combining traditional hydrogels for cell culture with “cryptic” site that bury proteolytically cleavable peptide sequences using complex coacervation. Here, the goal is to take advantage of the phase separation of coacervates to protect the cleavable peptide against degradation until acted upon by a mechanical force, such as those generated by adherent cells. To this end, we studied the encapsulation of chymotrypsin as a model protease into our coacervate system and investigated the effect of incorporation into the coacervate on its activity. We have also synthesized a peptide containing cleavable site for both chymotrypsin as our model protease and more biologically relevant matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Future efforts will look to incorporate this peptide into both coacervate and hydrogel and test the level of cryptic response.

description: One of the most promising routes to renewable liquid fuels and chemicals is the fermentation of waste carbon by specialized microbes. Commercial development of gas fermentation technology is underway but many fundamental research problems must be addressed to further advance the technology towards economic competitiveness. This thesis addresses the important problem of developing integrated metabolic and transport models that predict gas fermentation performance in industrially relevant bubble column reactors. The computational models describe the conversion of CO-rich waste streams including synthesis gas to the platform chemical butyrate. The proposed modeling approach involves combining genome-scale reconstructions of bacterial species metabolism with transport equations that govern the relevant multiphase convective and diffusional processes within the spatially-varying system. I compared the combination of the acetogen Clostridium autoethanogenum for CO conversion to the intermediate acetate and three different gut bacteria (Clostridium hylemonae, Eubacterium rectale and Roseburia hominis) for conversion of acetate to butyrate. Trial-and-error optimization of the three co-culture designs was performed to assess their relative performance and guide future experimental studies.

description: A recent trial in rheumatoid arthritis found an inexpensive, but infrequently used, combination of therapies is neither inferior nor less safe than an expensive biologic drug. If the trial had been conducted over 10 years ago, arguably 100’s of millions of dollars since spent on biologics could have been released to other, more effective treatments. Given the ever increasing number of trials proposed, this commentary uses the trial as an example to challenge payers and research funders to make smarter investments in clinical research to save potential future costs.

description: Background: X chromosome inactivation is the epigenetic silencing of the majority of the genes on one of the X chromosomes in XX therian mammals. In humans, approximately 15 % of genes consistently escape from this inactivation and another 15 % of genes vary between individuals or tissues in whether they are subject to, or escape from, inactivation. Multiple studies have provided inactivation status calls for a large subset of the genes on the X chromosome; however, these studies vary in which genes they were able to make calls for and in some cases which call they give a specific gene. Methods: This analysis aggregated three published studies that have examined X chromosome inactivation status of genes across the X chromosome, generating consensus calls and identifying discordancies. The impact of expression level and chromosomal location on X chromosome inactivation status was also assessed. Results: Overall, we assigned a consensus XCI status 639 genes, including 78 % of protein-coding genes expressed outside of the testes, with a lower frequency for non-coding RNA and testis-specific genes. Study-specific discordancies suggest that there may be instability of XCI during cell culture and also highlight study-specific variations in call type. We observe an enrichment of discordant genes at boundaries between genes subject to and escaping from inactivation. Conclusions: This study has compiled a comprehensive list of X-chromosome inactivation statuses for genes and also discovered some biases which will help guide future studies examining X-chromosome inactivation.

description: The paper describes the development, construction and consequences to date of a 'wired community' being created at Atherton Gardens, a low-income inner city public housing estate in Melbourne. This wired community, which will comprise almost 800 households, is the result of a complex partnership between a not for profit Internet Service Provider, other charitable organisations, local, state and federal government agencies, and the private sector. It aspires to improve the welfare of residents by creating new community interests, fostering local enterprise, and co-ordinating more effectively social services and support systems. Proponents of the network see computer access and connectivity as an important means of enhancing social and economic participation and self-help among a socially disadvantaged, economically depressed population. While a great deal has been written about the beneficial effects of electronic service delivery, detailed empirical research on the use and consequences of computer networks remains patchy, particularly amongst those who have not previously had access to such services. Much more work is needed to assess the effectiveness of various models for the provision of adequate hardware, software, training and education with which to begin to bridge the digital divide. This paper presents initial findings from a three-year research project looking at the new network at Atherton Gardens and the ways in which it is used, its complex genesis, and its impact on the culturally and linguistically diverse, socially disadvantaged population of the wired high rise. Such impacts might reasonably be expected to become apparent in the educational achievements of school children, in the adult education, training and employment outcomes and in the use which residents make of the intranet and internet as a means of accessing useful, comprehensible and timely information. A second and potentially much more interesting set of outcomes will be in the level of community participation and engagement which resident ownership of the network is expected to engender. Will the provision of online communication facilities increase social capital and connectedness in the ‘real’ world? A third set of outcomes, which is possibly the most interesting of all is that which cannot yet be predicted, as residents take up the opportunities the network makes available to them and then subvert, twist, interpret and use the system for their own purposes. It seems likely that middle class assumptions about what low income communities can, will and should do with technology may have little or nothing to do with the way those communities actually choose to use the system. The paper also examines some of the difficulties encountered in getting the project as far as it has already come, in light of the model of social partnerships under which it was constructed, and the differing expectations of the numerous partners involved.

title: Chromatographic Dynamic Chemisorption
Creators: name: Thakkar, Shreya
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2022

description: Reaction rates of catalytic cycles over supported metal catalysts are normalized by the exposed metal atoms on the catalyst surface, reported as site time yields which provide a rigorous standard to compare distinct metal surfaces. Defined as the fraction of exposed metal surface atoms to the total number of metal atoms, it is important to measure the dispersion of supported metal catalysts to report standardized rates for kinetic investigations. Multiple characterization techniques such as electron microscopy, spectroscopy and chemisorption are exploited for catalyst dispersion measurements. While effective, electron microscopy and spectroscopy are not readily accessible due to cost and maintenance requirements. Commercial instruments therefore typically rely on chemisorption measurements, but can be cost prohibitive nonetheless, hindering the ability of catalysis research to report rigorous measures of activity. Thus, a dispersion measurement technique based on gas chromatograph (GC) ubiquitous in catalysis research is proposed, based on the principle of dynamic carbon monoxide (CO) chemisorption, where number of exposed metal surface atoms are estimated based on the amount of adsorbed CO.
In this technique, the supported metal catalyst is packed into a liner, and inserted in the temperature-controlled inlet of the GC. The catalyst is pre-treated, purged with inert gas, and pulses of known amount of CO are passed through it via an automated sequence. The CO chemically adsorbs on the supported metal catalyst and the unadsorbed CO is detected by the flame ionization detector/methanizer on the GC. The amount of CO adsorbed is estimated by the difference between the amount of CO pulsed and detected, translated to estimate the number of exposed metal surface atoms using a stoichiometry factor. Dispersion measurements for several group VIII metal catalysts were conducted using this technique to demonstrate its applicability across a range of weight loadings and support identities. An agreement between catalyst dispersion measured using this technique and commercially available instruments indicated the reliability of this technique. The amount of dispersed metal as low as 0.02 mg could be estimated by this technique.

Creators: name: Evbarunegbe, Nelson I
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2023

Polymer coatings offer a wide range of benefits across various industries, playing a crucial role in product protection and extension of shelf life. However, formulating them can be a non-trivial task given the multitude of variables and factors involved in the production process, rendering it a complex, high-dimensional problem. To tackle this problem, machine learning (ML) has emerged as a promising tool, showing considerable potential in enhancing various polymer and chemistry-based applications, particularly those dealing with high dimensional complexities.
Our research aims to develop a physics-guided ML approach to facilitate the formulations of polymer coatings. As the first step, this project focuses on finding machine-readable feature representation techniques most suitable for encoding formulation ingredients. Utilizing two polymer-informatics datasets, one encompassing a large set of 700,000 common homopolymers including epoxies and polyurethanes as coating base materials while the other a relatively small set of 1000 data points of epoxy-diluent formulations, four featurization schemes to represent polymer coating molecules were benchmarked. They include the molecular access system, the extended connectivity fingerprint, molecular graph-based chemical graph network, and graph convolutional network (MG-GCN) embeddings. These representation schemes were used with ensemble models to predict molecular properties including topological surface area and viscosity. The results show that the combination of MG-GCN and ensemble models such as the extreme boosting machine and random forest models achieved the best overall performance, with coefficient of determination (r2) values of 0.74 in topological surface area and 0.84 in viscosity, which compare favorably with existing techniques. These results lay the foundation for using ML with physical modeling to expedite the development of polymer coating formulations.

Transnational bureaucracies : how do we know what they know?
Creators: name: Kuus, Merje
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This paper assesses geographic and especially political geographic work on transnational bureaucratic knowledge production. The term ‘transnational’ signals policy processes that blend national and extranational dynamics in institutional settings that transcend the governmental structures of states. The focus is on the international arena rather than national policy-making. The paper foregrounds the growing attention to bureaucratic processes in geography and highlights some productive arguments about spatiality and practice in that work. I stress the need for closer interdisciplinary engagements with related disciplines and I point to the insights that we would gain from the work of Pierre Bourdieu in that effort.

Symbolic power in diplomatic practice : matters of style in Brussels
Creators: name: Kuus, Merje
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This article investigates the workings of symbolic power in diplomatic practice. At the level of empirical observation, it focuses on the intangible incalculable ‘feel for the game’ that distinguishes a well-informed and relaxed insider from an ill-informed and ill at ease outsider in European Union (EU) diplomatic circles in Brussels. By highlighting the play of social resources like reputation, presence, poise, and composure in these circles, I examine EU diplomacy from an angle -- symbolic power -- that is often overlooked in the existing work on that field. Conceptually, the article foregrounds the role of informal social resources rather than formal institutional structures in diplomatic practice. It also outlines the potential synergies between the study of diplomacy in international relations (IR) on the one hand and geography, anthropology, and sociology on the other. The article thereby advances the analytical toolbox of diplomatic studies and practice theory. Such conceptual sharpening is needed especially now that diplomacy is becoming more transnational and less linked to the foreign ministries of states.

Modeling the Thermodynamics and Dynamics of Fluids Confined in Three-Dimensionally Ordered Mesoporous (3DOm) Carbon Materials
Creators: name: Desouza, Anish Julius
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2016

description: Porous materials have application in adsorption based processes due to their high internal surface area and tailorable pore size. They find uses in fields such as catalysis, separation, biotechnology, and microelectronics. Fluids confined in such materials exhibit interesting behavior in regards to the condensation and evaporation mechanisms. Understanding study the behavior of fluids confined in these porous materials is necessary for the efficient design of these materials. The adsorption/desorption isotherm provides valuable information about the effect of network features like pore connectivity and pore size distribution on fluid behavior during pore condensation and evaporation. Such insight can be useful in the characterization of these porous materials.
Three dimensionally ordered mesoporous (3DOm) carbon is a porous material that has recently emerged and is of interest. These porous structures are obtained from templating colloidal crystals formed from lysine-silica nanoparticles. The resulting structure consist of spherical pores connected to each other by windows. Due to the use of silica nanoparticles a range of tunable pore sizes can be obtained. These structures have high degree of order. They find applications in the synthesis of zeolites due to their highly controllable pore size. Hence a study of the adsorption properties of these structures is of importance.
Molecular modeling has proved effective in the study of porous materials. The development of the density functional theory (DFT) and the dynamic mean field theory (DMFT) has led to great advances in the study of the behavior of confined fluids. The DFT enables the study of the adsorption desorption hysteresis phenomena of confined fluids. The DMFT describes the density profile versus time for a step change in relative pressure on the isotherm. These theories have been applied in the past to two dimensional model pore networks to investigate the mechanisms of adsorption and desorption. In this research project we aim to apply the same to various model 3DOm carbon pore networks. Studying the density distributions in these networks can help understand the thermodynamics of fluid adsorption and desorption in these structures. The results could be useful in understanding the effect of pore structure features like pore size and windows on adsorption and desorption. Also the effect of disorder in the pore network as well as effect of variation in pore size on fluid behavior can be studied. Study of the dynamics of adsorption gives an insight into the nucleation mechanisms that govern the condensation of fluid in the pore. These results could prove useful in the characterization of these porous structures.
Household participation in a payments for Environmental Services Program : the Nhambita Forest Carbon Project (Mozambique)

description: Quantitative research on the household participation in Payments for Environmental Services (PES) program remains scarce. This paper aims to determine the key factors influencing household participation in a PES program in Mozambique. Questionnaire based quarterly surveys were conducted of 290 randomly selected households. We used Instrumental Variables technique to identify the factors influencing household participation. The instrumental variables used for forest dependence were household head born in the village, duration of residence of the household head in the village, ethnicity of the household head, business ownership of the household head, and off-farm income of the household. The results show that education of household head and households’ trust towards community members positively influenced household participation in PES, while forest dependence influenced it negatively. Future PES projects may thus need to focus more on developing social capital and resource dependence of households.

description: The first part of the course is theoretical, and introduces the finite element method trough interactive Jupyter notebooks. It also covers recent advancements toward an integrated pipeline, considering meshing and element design as a single challenge, leading to a black box pipeline that can solve simulations on ten thousand in the wild meshes, without any parameter tuning. In the second part we will move to practice, introducing a set of easy-to-use Python packages for applications in geometric computing. The presentation will have the form of live coding in a Jupyter notebook. We have designed the presented libraries to have a shallow learning curve, while also enabling programmers to easily accomplish a wide variety of complex tasks. Furthermore, these libraries utilize NumPy arrays as a common interface, making them highly composable with each-other as well as existing scientific computing packages. Finally, our libraries are blazing fast, doing most of the heavy computations in C++ with a minimal constant-overhead interface to Python. In the course, we will present a set of real-world examples from geometry processing, physical simulation, and geometric deep learning. Each example is prototypical of a common task in research or industry and is implemented in a few lines of code. By the end of the course, attendees will have exposure to a swiss-army-knife of simple, composable, and high-performance tools for geometric computing.
