Rotavirus disease
Creators: name: Krishnarajah, Girishanthy
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: Estimates of the clinical and financial burden of RV disease among children aged less than 5 years before and after the introduction of the vaccines stratified by various age groups, particularly during recent years’ RV seasons, are limited. Published studies to date using real-world practice data have included only the Rotateq vaccine, and have not included Medicaid low-income population1.  Additionally, there is no published study that looked at the effectiveness of Rotarix in the US born infants. Hence this research addresses these limitations by quantifying the incidence and cost of Rotavirus (RV)  and Acute Gastroenteritis (AGE) among children less than 5 years of age among commercial and Medicaid plans. Additionally the study also assessed the impact of incomplete and complete vaccination among those in commercial and Medicaid plans. Study population included beneficiaries who continuously received benefits for at least 6 months while aged <5 years were identified separately in commercial (2000-2010) and Medicaid (2002-2009) claims.  Incidence of RV-coded encounters, diarrhea-coded but RV-attributable encounters, and first RV episodes were calculated, along with incremental cost of first RV episodes.  Incidence rates among the post vaccination period reduced significantly compared to pre vaccination period for both RV coded and diarrhea coded, but RV attributable disease in both population. Incremental per-patient per-month cost of first RV episodes in Medicaid was $2,054 and $3608 in commercial.  Forty two percent of children in the commercial population had completed vaccination by 2010, and 11.1% of Medicaid patient had completed vaccination by 2009. Both complete and incomplete vaccination confers protection against RV episodes among inpatient visits, outpatient visits and ER visits for both population. Additionally there is evidence of strong indirect protection among those unvaccinated groups.
Axial response of high resolution microendoscopy in scattering media, with and without structured illumination
Creators: name: Koucky, Michael Harten
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: High-resolution microendoscopy (HRME) uses epi-fluorescence imaging with a coherent fiber-optic bundle to enable in vivo examination of cellular morphology. While the HRME platform has recently gained popularity as a simple alternative to confocal endomicroscopy, the axial response of HRME in thick, scattering tissue has yet to be described quantitatively. This is important because when analyzing images collected by HRME, out-of-focus light may affect the accuracy of quantitative parameters such as nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio, which has been proposed as a diagnostic indicator of dysplasia or cancer.    In the first part of this thesis, the imaging properties of the HRME system are investigated using phantoms simulating scattering tissue with fluorescently labeled nuclei. HRME images defocused (deep) objects with apparent diameters and intensity levels that are in agreement with a simple geometric model. Out-of-focus nuclei contribute a relatively low, uniform background level to images which neither leads to the erroneous appearance of large nuclei from deep layers, nor prevents accurate imaging of superficial nuclei with high contrast.    Proflavine has been used as a fluorescent contrast agent for HRME imaging, brightly labeling nuclei without staining the surrounding cytoplasm or organelles. If a non-specific fluorophore such as fluorescein is used, the removal of out-of-focus (OOF) light would be desirable. Optical sectioning is a property of some imaging systems, whereby OOF signal light is removed or rejected from the image. Optical sectioning is commonly associated with confocal microscopy and non-linear imaging methods such as multi-photon microscopy. In contrast, structured illumination (SI) is an imaging modality which is capable of providing optical sectioning without requiring raster scanning of a tightly focused laser beam. SI was integrated with the HRME platform and demonstrated to be an effective method of suppressing OOF signals, with comparable results to confocal. Theory, example images, programming considerations, and methods to minimize artifacts specific to SI are considered.

Curbside buses and the transformation of the intercity bus industry
Creators: name: Klein, Nicholas
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: Since the late 1990s, a new type of intercity transportation has transformed travel in many American cities. This new travel option has not come from revolutionary technological innovation, large-scale infrastructure investment, or long-term planning efforts. Rather, the new travel option is the intercity bus, a mode that had been in decline for decades.   After roughly fifty years of steady decline in ridership, intercity buses are suddenly the fastest growing intercity mode in the United States. This growth is due to curbside intercity buses, which pick up and drop off passengers on city street corners rather than in bus terminals. This seemingly small change in operations is at the heart of the dramatic growth in intercity bus travel. On the Northeast Corridor alone, intercity bus travel has more than doubled between 199& and 200& from three and a half million to over seven million trips.   This research looks beyond the growth in ridership to unpack what these changes mean for the passengers on these buses, for the public at large, for competing intercity providers, and for regulators and local transportation planners. This dissertation poses three broad research questions. First, how and why do passengers choose to take curbside buses? Second, who uses curbside buses and how are these buses influencing their travel behavior? Third, how are curbside buses changing both the intercity bus industry and how have city planners responded to the problems associated with an influx of curbside intercity buses on city streets?

Nanotechnology and food

description: The Food Industry is continually growing and looking for new technologies to increase production output as well as profits. Often achieved through technological advancements, one of the newest food technologies is nanotechnology food, which includes any foods that use nanotechnology techniques or tools during its cultivation, processing, production or even packaging of the food. Studies have found that without a positive perception and acceptance by customers, these advances are futile: consumers are more accepting of foods that provide health benefits, and men are consistently more accepting of new food technologies than women. This study surveyed a nationally representative sample of 1,210 individuals to assess their baseline knowledge of nanotechnology and their acceptance of nanotechnology foods in relation to the participant’s gender and level of education. The study found that men had a significantly higher knowledge about general nanotechnology itself (p = 0.00). As predicted, men showed higher acceptance of nanotechnology foods overall than women [F(1,1098)=8.15, p=0.00]. Men also showed higher acceptance of nanotechnology foods that offer health benefits with a mean score of 6.40 and women responded with a mean of 5.8& [F(1,1186)=&.152, p=0.01]. In addition, the level of education was not found to have a significant effect on acceptance of nanotechnology foods regardless of the benefit it offered [F(1,1098)=&.0&, p=0.91]. These results suggest that men are more likely to accept nanotechnology foods, nanotechnology foods that offer health benefits are accepted over nanotechnology foods that offer non-health benefits, and education level does not indicate acceptance of nanotechnology foods.
Time and probability in the mouse

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: I describe a series of four experiments studying decision under uncertainty in the mouse and argue that their results demand a more sophisticated, information-­‐processing, account of mouse behavior than current popular models. The tasks are based on the switch procedure of Balci, Freestone and Gallistel (2009), which employs interval-­‐timing behavior to study decision under uncertainty. I show that: 1. Subjects respond to changes in task-­‐relevant probabilities abruptly. 2. The number of trials before they detect a change in probability is predicted by the Kullback-­‐Leibler divergence between the Bernoulli distributions of the two probabilities. 3. Subjects are capable of decreasing their timing variability. 4. Subjects differentiate between added exogenous temporal variability and their endogenous timing variability. I argue that these four results are best understood in an information-­‐processing framework and modeling mouse behavior with algorithms that explicitly represent abstract quantities such as probability, exogenous variability and objective time.

Semantic parsing using lexicalized well-founded grammars
Creators: name: Kharkwal, Gaurav
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: Research in semantic parsing has focused on developing computational systems capable of simultaneously performing syntactic, i.e. structural, and semantic, i.e., meaning-based, analyses of given sentences.  We present an implementation of a semantic parsing system using a constraint-based grammatical formalism called Lexicalized Well-Founded Grammars (LWFGs).  LWFGs are a type of Definite Clause Grammars, and use an ontology-based framework to represent syntactico-semantic information in the form of compositional and interpretation constraints. What makes LWFGs particularly interesting is the fact that these are the only constraint-based grammars that are provably learnable.  Furthermore, there exist tractable learning algorithms for LWFGs, which make these especially useful in resource-poor language settings.    In this thesis, we present a revised parsing implementation for Lexicalized Well-Founded Grammars. Previous work implemented semantic parsers using Prolog, a declarative language, which is slow and does not allow for an easy extension to a stochastic parsing framework. Our implementation utilizes Python's Natural Language Toolkit which not only allows us to easily interface our work with the natural language processing community, but also allows for a future possibility of extending the parser to support broad-coverage and stochastic parsing.

description: Increasing legislation and use of cannabis across the U.S. demands thoughtful, scientifically sound, practical responses from states and communities. To ensure such responses, “best of the best” minds will come together in an objective national platform to facilitate frank discussion of policies and regulatory approaches, emerging research, and prevention and treatment approaches. Advocates for Human Potential will convene the 2019 National Cannabis Summit: Science, Policy, and Best Practices (Summit 2019), expanding on the first national forum (2017 National Cannabis Summit) to explore science, policy, regulatory, and governance issues of cannabis legalization using a research and public health approach. Summit 2019 will be held in California, long at the forefront of legalizing medical and recreational cannabis use, and is planned with input from the University of California Presidents Office; California Department of Public Health; California Bureau of Cannabis Control; and University of California, Los Angeles Integrated Substance Abuse Programs. In addition, involvement of the Canadian Centre for Substance Abuse will lend an international perspective.

 This 3-day scientific conference is designed for public health professionals in research, policy, regulatory oversight, and enforcement, as well as practitioners in public health and clinical services. Summit 2019 will maximize learning through original, informative, and engaging keynote sessions on the scientific, clinical, and political landscape surrounding state legislation of marijuana. Breakout workshops targeting specific issues will be organized around six tracks: emerging research and epidemiological data; governance, federal law, and emerging policy; prevention and education; health effects; public health and public safety; and regulatory issues. Networking and discussion will be facilitated through informal and interactive lunch-and-learn sessions, as well as poster presentations, during which authors and researchers interact with attendees. Extensive use of technology, including customized software and a social media presence before, during, and after, will exponentially increase the range of information sharing. Grounded in balanced and objective science-based perspectives, Summit 2019 will not include an exhibit hall and have no ties to the marijuana industry.

Design and synthesis of novel FtsZ-targeting antibacterial agents
Creators: name: Kelley, Cody
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: Bacterial infections pose a major health concern worldwide, and the emergence of multi-drug resistant strains of bacteria has intensified the search for new antibiotic treatments with novel mechanisms of action.  Bacterial cell division remains a new, currently untargeted pathway making it highly desirable research area for discovering new ways to kill bacteria.  FtsZ is a highly conserved, essential bacterial cell division protein that forms the dynamic Z-ring involved in recruitment of other essential proteins and serving as the constricting force for cell division.  Inhibiting the function of this key protein disrupts proper cell division, and has therefore become a key target in the search for new antibiotics.  There are many known FtsZ inhibitors spanning from natural products such as sanguinarine and berberine, to synthetic derivatives such as GTP analogs and PC190&23.  The majority of these known inhibitors, however, lack the proper potency, safety profiles, and physiochemical properties required for clinical development.  Initial studies involved modifying the structures of two known FtsZ inhibitors, sanguinarine and berberine, to increase potency and explore the structure-activity relationships.  Unfortunately, although successfully obtaining analogs with good antibacterial activity, these compounds lacked desired solubility properties for further advancement.  This led to the second generation of compounds that lacked a constitutive cationic charge while retaining the antibacterial activity seen with the previous analogs.  While these compounds had much better solubility, they possessed a new drawback.  Compounds from the second generation were found to be highly protein bound resulting in a significant loss of antibacterial activity when administered in the presence of protein.  Studies began to design and synthesize analogs that either exhibited much higher potency or much less protein binding.  Although initial attempts at this were unsuccessful, continued efforts are being made to find a FtsZ inhibitor with improved potency, physiochemical properties, and a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity.

description: 1. Hieroglyphus concolor (Walker, 1870)
This species has been recorded for the first time in Kashmore, Tangwani (Sindh) and Rawapindi (Punjab). It is not a common species (Mason 1973). It was found across India, Myanmar, Bangladesh, and China (Nazir et al. 2014; Kumar & Usmani 2015). However, to our knowledge it was perhaps misidentified as H. perpolita.

Examination of the role of PTEN in ionotropic glutamate receptor expression
Creators: name: Kazdoba-Leach, Tatiana
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: The phosphatase Pten negatively regulates PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling, a pathway critical for cell growth and protein synthesis.  Germline PTEN mutations are implicated in seizure and autism, suggesting that alterations in PTEN affect neuronal function and development. Several brain-specific conditional Pten knockout (KO) mice exhibit enlarged brains, neuronal hypertrophy and increased seizure susceptibility, which may be indicative of altered glutamate receptor function.  mTOR inhibition can suppress seizure activity observed in these Pten mutant models, revealing the importance of mTOR signaling in Pten-dependent phenotypes.  To better understand how Pten may regulate neuronal excitability, ionotropic glutamate receptor expression was examined in NEX-Pten homozygous KO mice, which lack Pten in nearly all forebrain excitatory neurons.  Biochemical analyses revealed alterations in select NMDA and AMPA receptor subunit protein levels in the forebrains of newly born NEX-Pten KO mice, suggesting developmental loss of Pten can affect synaptic proteins important for neurotransmission. Similarly, initial analysis of CaMKIIα-Pten KO mice indicated postnatal loss of Pten in excitatory neurons may also alter NMDA receptor subunits in the cortex, but not the hippocampus, underscoring the importance of Pten for proper synaptic protein expression.  To further characterize the effects of Pten deletion on glutamate receptor subunit expression, dissociated cortical neuronal cultures were used to evaluate how chronic Pten deficiency alters glutamate receptors over time.  NMDA receptor abnormalities were modest and transient, indicating that alterations in glutamate receptor subunits may normalize due to homeostatic mechanisms. Further, pharmacological inhibition of PI3K reduced select NMDA receptor subunits in dissociated cortical cultures.  Together, these data suggest that in vivo activation of PI3K through loss of Pten leads to selective increases in NMDA receptor subunits in cortical neurons, but not hippocampal neurons, since no alterations were detected in this region.  Additional studies with rapamycin and second generation mTOR inhibitors are required to determine how mTOR function contributes to the glutamate receptor phenotype.  The NEX-Pten model demonstrates that Pten may be crucial in controlling neuronal excitability at the synapse.  Dysregulation of these functions may underlie some of the phenotypes associated with PTEN mutations in the human population.

Molecular dynamic simulations of LA₂O₃ and LU₂O₃ doped silicate intergranular films in β-SI₃N₄
Creators: name: Jiang, Yun
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: Thin, amorphous intergranular films (IGFs) ubiquitously exist at grain boundaries of polycrystalline ceramics. They play an important role in determining the macroscopic properties of high temperature structural ceramics. Silicon nitride ceramics (Si3N4) are high temperature structural ceramics due to their outstanding physical and mechanical properties at elevated temperature. The formation of the anisotropic grains of silicon nitride is very sensitive to the dopant cations used as sintering additives. HAADF-STEM images have shown that rare earth (RE) ions take very ordered locations, dependant upon the RE species, along the IGF/Prism interface in Si3N4 ceramics. However, such segregation does not explain the differences in morphology resulting from incorporation of the different RE additives. Atomistic details not readily available in experiments need to be collected.  Molecular dynamics computer simulations are used to evaluate the structure, energy and fracture behavior of silicon oxynitride intergranular films (IGFs) containing rare-earth ions (La or Lu) between silicon nitride crystals as a function of IGF thickness, composition, and crystal orientations (prism, basal, and high index). La adsorption on the prism surface is observed at locations consistent with HAADF-STEM results. La segregation corresponding to N content is discussed. A variation in the local composition would cause some IGFs to show segregation of all La to the interface, leaving little La within the glassy IGF, while other IGFs may show more La remaining in the glassy IGF. Such differences affect strength. Lu does not adsorb onto a fully nitride prism surface. The presence of O at certain surface lattice sites plays a major role in the adsorption of Lu ions onto those sites consistent with HAADF-STEM results but has little effect on La siteing. .Energies of the La or Lu ions as a function of location are calculated to provide an explanation for the segregation behavior as well as consideration of their role in the glassy state of the IGF. Growth along the crystal surface is studied, providing an atomistic mechanism for the experimentally observed anisotropic grain growth of silicon nitride influenced by the different additives. Fracture strengths via stress-strain curves are calculated.

description: With the recent rapid rise of technologies such as geographic information systems (GIS) and advances in spatial statistics, there has been a major advancement in the ability to discern patterns in time and space of even chronic diseases such as breast cancer. These advances have been used for the first time to find new hot spots of invasive breast cancer incidence in California, and have an exciting potential to examine differences in cancer incidence among different racial and ethnic groups, and to link cancer incidence to environmental exposures such as air and water pollution, to help find the causes of breast cancer. We will hold a cutting-edge workshop to bring together the leading scientists working in this new area with environmental, community, and health advocates to discuss the latest advancements in the use of spatial data and techniques for breast cancer research. The workshop will emphasize translating the latest methods in an understandable way to workshop participants so that these approaches can be used in science-advocate partnerships for community action and policy changes.

 The workshop planning committee includes top scientists in environmental and breast cancer epidemiology, GIS experts and local community-based health organizations. The one-day workshop will take place on Tuesday, April 14, 2015. We will provide participants with an initial overview of new GIS and related statistical approaches and their limitations and strengths to provide a common language and understanding of concepts. We will have a panel presenting case studies of how GIS methods have been used to study breast cancer in Northern California. We will also give an overview of unique California data resources, and another panel which will highlight how community organizations have used spatial data to support changes. Breakout groups will be formed to produce an action plan on how spatial data can be used for community action and policy, and to develop research priorities. A short-course will be held the day before (April 13, 2015) to train students, advocates and other interested parties in the latest GIS techniques.
