description: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the most common cause of vision loss for people age 50 and over, is a disease characterized by the buildup of oxidative stress in the back of the eye. Current remedies are limited to intravitreal injections that only target the more severe ‘wet’ form; the common ‘dry’ form has no readily available pharmaceutical solution. Curcumin, a natural antioxidant found in the Indian spice turmeric, has shown potential in combating inflammatory diseases like AMD; however, the molecule also demonstrates poor bioavailability. This research aimed to create curcumin-loaded nanoliposomes (NLs) to be delivered noninvasively to potentially treat and prevent the onset of AMD. The 220 nm NLs were composed of phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol through vacuum evaporation, rehydration, and extrusion. Our curcuminloaded NLs were assessed using an in vitro oxidative stress model of ARPE-19 cells. MTT cell viability assay results show that the liposomal curcumin complex has been able to improve cell viability with respect to the untreated cells (28% more viable, p < 0.05), and cells that were damaged with peroxide (50% more viable, p < 0.05). As a preventative measure, the liposomal curcumin complex has been able to improve cell viability with respect to untreated cells (55% more viable, p < 0.05). Ex vivo modeling tested the permeability of the nanoliposomes to the posterior hemisphere of a porcine eye with a Franz diffusion cell apparatus. Qualitative fluorescence analysis shows that the nanoliposomes were able to permeate through different layers of the eye and reach the retina. In vitro studies with RPE cells show the treatment significantly reduces oxidative stress in cells while increasing cell viability, thus indicating that curcumin has potential to both treat and prevent AMD.

description: James Benning gilt als einer profiliertesten und produktivsten Filmemacher auf dem Gebiet des Experimentalfilms. In seinen in den letzten zehn Jahren entstandenen Arbeiten, die jedoch nur einen kleinen Anteil an seinem Gesamtwerk haben, widmet er sich hauptsächlich den Landschaften der USA und verbindet einen genauen Blick auf diese mit Fragen nach deren Überformung durch zunehmende Ökonomisierung und Industrialisierung. Die vorliegende Arbeit widmet sich dreien seiner Filme genauer: El Valley Centro, Los und Sogobi, im Zeitraum von 1999-2001 entstanden, formieren die sogenannte California Trilogy, in der sich Benning der Landschaften Kaliforniens annimmt, um einerseits den Weg des Wassers in einem der größten landwirtschaftlichen Anbauflächen der USA sowie in der Stadt Los Angeles nachzuzeichnen, andererseits dem Mythos der "Naturlandschaft" nachgeht (Sogobi), der immer schon einer der Romantisierung und Mediatisierung war. Anhand der Stränge Film- und Raumtheorie soll gezeigt werden, dass sich die "California Trilogy" am Schnittpunkt diskursiver Formationen befindet, die Fragen virulent werden lassen, die in den letzten Jahren vermehrt Eingang in die zeitgenössische Kunstproduktion gefunden haben: jene nach Dokumentarismus und Realismus bzw. der Verschmelzung von dokumentarischer und fiktionaler Form. Der erste Teil der Arbeit geht somit auf die verschiedenen räumlichen Konzepte ein, die in den Filme der Trilogie nachzuzeichnen sind, und rekurriert dabei auf ein wiedererstärktes Interesse am Raum im "spatial turn" bzw. "topographical turn" in den Kulturwissenschaften, das den Raum als Analyseform begreift, um konkrete Orte und deren Veränderungen im Hinblick auf ihr Potential in der Produktion historischer Narrative sowie deren Repräsentationsformen zu untersuchen. Im zweiten Teil wird Raumfragen aus filmhistorischer und filmtheoretischer Sichtweise, mit einer Lektüre, die sich vor allem an André Bazins Schriften und Gilles Deleuzes Theorien zum Kino orientiert, nachgegangen, um zu zeigen, dass erstere seit jeher mit jenen nach dem ontologischen Status eines Mediums sowie dessen Mittel der Bedeutungsproduktion aufs engste verknüpft sind.

description: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a debilitating illness that affects millions of Americans each year. While there is not one definitive hypothesis that exists regarding how the disease develops, some hypotheses include the cholinergic model, the amyloid beta hypothesis, and the tau pathology model. The rTg4510 (Tg) mouse is a model of AD that over-expresses inducible human mutant tau (P301L), a pathological hallmark of AD. This study characterizes the Tg mouse through analysis of adult neurogenesis in the olfactory system, due to the fact that the olfactory system is one of the first sensory systems of the brain to be affected by AD. For this, we examined the behavioral changes in different age groups, specifically 2 and 7 months. Adult neurogenesis within the granule cell layers and glomerular layers in the main and accessory olfactory bulb was analyzed by methods of immunohistochemistry using appropriate antibodies and cell counting with confocal microscopy. Several behavioral paradigms, such as habituation/dishabituation, odor detection threshold, and novel object recognition, were executed to assess cognitive function of these mice, especially in relation to markers of olfactory behavior. Our data suggest that there is an age-dependent cognitive impairment but an age-dependent increase in neurogenesis. Further study is required to identify the effects of inducing the mutant tau on neurogenesis in the olfactory bulb (OB) and whether the overexpression of tau directly impacts cognitive decline.

description: Team Piezo investigated the increasing demands on smartphone batteries by developing a touchscreen prototype that integrates piezoelectric materials to sense touch location and generate energy for the battery. The touchscreen prototype uses a piezoelectric element with patterned electrodes that extract a current when touched. A circuit with an Arduino microcontroller successfully senses the location of the activated piezoelectric sections. The team designed several prototypes and conducted testing to evaluate performance and electrical response. Methods of extracting and storing energy were investigated, however storage was not successful enough to integrate into the prototype. Phone usage data was collected with surveys and was compared to power output of the touchscreen system to determine the theoretical amount of retrievable energy for future development.

description: Pollution from the fossil-fuel-powered production of plastics presents a serious threat to the planet’s environmental health. To address this issue, cellulose nanopaper (CNP) has been pushed as an abundant, sustainably-sourced potential alternative. Initially derived from wood pulp, CNP is comprised of a network of nanosized cellulose fibers. Although CNP has exhibited remarkable optical transparency, porosity, and stiffness, the need for improvement in its chemical and electrical properties has been identified. Optimizing these properties would allow CNP to function in flexible electronic systems. By altering the paper through several surface processing experiments, the most effective treatments to increase CNP’s functionality were identified. These treatments included altering the source of cellulose, performing atomic layer deposition (ALD) with Al2O3, conducting surface esterification reactions, and applying transparent, conductive coatings. Along with conventional pine fibers, CNP with longer cellulose fibers from the jute plant was developed. Sequential, uniform deposition of Al2O3 films via ALD was also implemented for added stability. The surface of the CNP was treated with organic acids to yield nonpolar ester groups, with the goal of increasing water resistance. Finally, conductive ink coatings consisting of carbon nanotubes and cellulose nanofibers demonstrated improved electrical conductivity of CNP for optoelectronic applications. After the treatments, material properties were characterized, including strength, flexibility, water resistance, conductivity, surface smoothness, and transparency. Improvements in hydrophobicity, conductivity, and surface smoothness were observed. These treatments and their corresponding findings represent promising ways of improving the functionality of CNP without dramatically altering its high transparency and flexibility.

description: Tuberculosis is a highly contagious, infectious disease that kills about 1.8 million people annually. Current chemotherapeutic regimens are both inefficient and taxing to the patient. In addition, the disease has suboptimal treatment due to the rise of multidrug resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative bacterial agent of tuberculosis. Therefore, we established a critical assay to identify novel drugs that interfere with specific Mtb virulence mechanisms. The mycobacterial protein fragment complementation (M-PFC) assay was developed to screen 725 compound drug panel to find candidate drugs that interfered with important virulence-causing protein interactions of Mtb. We targeted the EsxA EsxB and EsxMEsxN interactions of the type VII secretion systems of Mtb. Our screen identified 46 small molecules that inhibited both virulence interactions, exhibiting nonspecific activity against a model cell line in vitro as well as seven hits specific to one of the two cell lines. In the future, we hope to retest the seven unique positive hits to confirm their ability to inhibit specific proteinprotein interactions of Mtb.

description: A prevailing belief is that Americans hold a shared set of values that finds expression in and is informed by our nation’s founding documents. It is puzzling, then, to acknowledge that the United States is more polarized now than at any time since Reconstruction. Our research examined possible explanations for the tension between Americans holding a shared set of values and their being highly polarized, especially concerning the following issues: abortion, capital punishment, gun control, and same-sex marriage. We found evidence that suggests there could be two types of polarization: substantive and superficial. Based on a metric we term ‘scattering,’ a measure of consensus regarding the most pertinent value for a given issue, we argue that polarization on capital punishment and gun control is substantive, while polarization on abortion and same-sex marriage is merely superficial. We argue that substantive polarization is to be preferred to superficial polarization.

description: The last 100 years has seen type 1 diabetes, a previously fatal disease, transformed by the administration of exogenous insulin. a standard literature search using the Google and Microsoft search engines and PubMed was performed. The development of synthetic insulins with varying onsets and duration of action improved glucose control, essential to mitigate the microvascular and macrovascular consequences of diabetes. Today insulin pumps guided by continuous glucose monitors are approaching the objective of normalized glucose levels. The area of greatest development is now in attempting to suppress the immune process which results in progressive destruction of the beta cell. It is possible to identify family members of patients with type 1 diabetes who may eventually develop the disease by measuring several beta cell antibodies. Very recently teplizumab, a CD3 inhibitor, has been approved to delay onset of hyperglycemia in these individuals. The future will see progress in immunosuppression, possibly using specific CAR-Treg cells directed at the beta cell antigens which trigger the immune process. In parallel, stem cell derived beta cells may eventually make it possible to replace lost beta cells, resulting in a true cure for type 1 diabetes.

description: Team SCOPE has created an assistive robot for healthcare delivery. The robot is mobile, responds to spoken commands, and possesses Artificial Intelligence (AI). It extracts meanings about the patient’s health from conversations and visual interactions. It summarizes these observations into reports that could be merged with the patient’s Electronic Health Records (EHRs). This process aids healthcare professionals in delivering better care by augmenting attendance, increasing accuracy of patient information collection, aiding in diagnosis, streamlining data collection, and automating the process of ingesting and incorporating this information into EHR systems. SCOPE’s solution uses cloud-based AI services along with local processing. Using VEX Robotics parts and an Arduino microcontroller, SCOPE created a mobile platform for the robot. The robotic platform implements basic motions and obstacle avoidance. These separate systems are integrated using a Java master program, Node-Red, and IBM Watson cloud services. The resulting AI can be expanded for different applications within healthcare delivery.

description: The rat model is commonly used to study prosocial and empathetic behavior. However, the neural underpinnings of such behavior are unknown. We investigated the potential roles of two neurotransmitters, dopamine (DA) and oxytocin (OT), in prosocial behavior of rats. Our first experiment used a Pavlovian association task with two rats to investigate how DA release was modulated by social context. This experiment used fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) to measure subsecond DA release in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). Consistent with previous work, cues that predicted reward were associated with increased DA release, and cues that predicted shock inhibited DA release non-discriminately across trial types. However, during shock trials, DA release was modulated by social context in two ways. First, reductions in DA release during shock trials were weaker in the presence of the conspecific, suggesting a consoling effect which was supported by behavioral indicators. Second, DA release during shock trials increased when shock was administered to the conspecific, suggesting that recording rats used the reactions of the conspecific to verify personal safety. We concluded that DA release is modulated by social context in that rats use social cues to optimize predictions about their own well-being. In our second experiment, we investigated the influence of oxytocin on prosocial behavior. Oxytocin was administered intranasally prior to a distress task in which a lever press resulted in reward delivery and one of three additional outcomes: no shock (‘reward-only’), shock to engaged rat (‘shock-self’), or shock to the conspecific (‘shock-other’). Results demonstrated that oxytocin did not significantly increase prosocial behaviors.

Creators: name: Ionescu, Ana

description: Im Zentrum dieser Arbeit steht die Frage nach den Zusammenhängen und Wechselwirkungen von ökonomischen und alltagskulturellen Phänomenen. Untersucht werden diese anhand eines empirischen Fallbeispiels, nämlich des "gesunden Zirbenholzbettes", das viele Tischlereien als Reaktion auf eine wissenschaftliche Studie in ihr Angebot aufgenommen haben. Das Material Zirbenholz erfährt in diesem Zusammenhang eine symbolische Umwertung. Es wird nun nicht mehr mit alpiner Rustikalität, sondern mit Gesundheit, Natürlichkeit und Wellness in Verbindung gebracht. In einer relationalen Perspektive werden in dieser Arbeit die Entstehung, die Popularisierung und der Konsum des Zirbenholzbettes untersucht. Theoretische Ausgangspunkte bilden dabei die in den Forschungen der Europäischen Ethnologie zu materieller Kultur grundlegende Konzeption von Objekten als Bedeutungsträgern, die sowohl kulturelle Dynamiken abbilden als auch diese mit beeinflussen, kombiniert mit kommunikationstheoretischen Modellen der Cultural Studies und einer aktiven Perspektive auf gesellschaftliche Machtverhältnisse, wie sie von Michel Foucault und den Vertreter/innen der Actor-Network-Theorie nahe gelegt wird. Zentrales Anliegen dieser Arbeit ist es, Konsument/innen vorab weder als der Manipulation ausgesetzte Opfer noch als völlig frei entscheidende Nutzer/innen anzusehen, sondern den Blick ebenso für Handlungsspielräume wie für die soziale und kulturelle Bedingtheit von Werthaltungen, die für Konsumakte grundlegend sind, offen zu halten. Der erste Abschnitt der Arbeit widmet sich den Akteuren und Stationen der Bedeutungszuschreibung, also der Frage, wie und von wem das Zirbenholzbett mit welchen Bedeutungskontexten in Verbindung gebracht wird. Dabei wird zunächst nach den Rahmenbedingungen für die Entstehung der wissenschaftlichen Studie gefragt. In einem zweiten Schritt wird die Verknüpfung des Zirbenholzbettes mit bestimmten semantischen Netzwerken auf einer materiellen Ebene (durch seine Gestaltung) ebenso wie auf einer verbalen Ebene (durch seine Bewerbung) nachgezeichnet. Zuletzt wird anhand von zwei Beispielen nach den Entscheidungsprozessen und Kaufmotiven der Käufer/innen von Zirbenholzbetten gefragt, wobei das Augenmerk auf dem – sehr unterschiedlichen – Umgang mit einem vorhandenen Bedeutungsangebot liegt. Im zweiten Abschnitt der Arbeit geht es darum, einige der Bedeutungskontexte, an die mit dem „gesunden Zirbenholzbett“ angeknüpft wird – Gesundheit, Natürlichkeit, unterschiedliche Formen des Wissens sowie die Eigenschaften des Bettes als Objekt –, auch in einer historischen Perspektive näher zu beleuchten. Dabei wird deutlich, dass es sich um teils widersprüchliche, und dennoch in engen Zusammenhängen stehende Entwicklungen handelt, die zwar teilweise von einem vorhandenen Marktangebot mitbestimmt werden, jedoch wesentlich breiter verankert sind, und selbst wiederum den Markt beeinflussen.

description: Almost 9 million people in the U.S. have peripheral arterial disease (PAD). In severe cases of PAD, arterial bypass surgery is performed to redirect flow around the problem area. However, for many elderly patients, this surgery is not feasible using the preferred autologous grafts because of the limited availability of tissue to use for grafting, so there is a clinical need for engineered vascular grafts. Engineered grafts are intended to replace native blood vessels by manipulating biomaterials to mimic the properties of the native vessel. Despite success in large diameter cases, small diameter grafts are still prone to a number of issues such as occlusion, hyperplasia, and thrombosis. Silk fibroin is a promising biomaterial for creating vascular grafts because of its demonstrated mechanical strength and biocompatibility. Our research established a method for electrospinning the silk fibroin onto a rotating mandrel for seamless grafts. Mechanical testing, including burst pressure and tensile strength tests, compared the strength of our grafts to that of the autologous vessel. Finally, biochemical modifications, aimed at both recruiting and proliferating HUVECs on the grafts, increased cell proliferation on the grafts in vitro.

title: Sozialsponsoring als Benefit für beide Seiten?
Creators: name: Hafner, Carmen
Year: 2009

description: Die vorliegende Magisterarbeit machte es sich zur Aufgabe, zu ergründen, ob Sozialsponsoring für beide Seiten (sowohl für das Sponsor-Unternehmen, als auch für die gesponserte Organisation) gefühlte Vorteile, also einen beidseitigen Benefit, erbringen kann. Die Ausgangsbasis hierfür stellte die Überlegung dar, dass Kritik einerseits am Sozialsponsoring, andererseits am zweiten für die Untersuchung wesentlichen Theoriekonzept, der Corporate Social Responsibility, eingedämmt werden könne, wenn klar wird, dass unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen keine der beteiligten Parteien eine Benachteiligung erfährt. Im Zuge dieser Forschungsarbeit erfolgte eine Annäherung an das Erkenntnisinteresse durch qualitative Experteninterviews mit acht Sponsor-Unternehmen und 17 von ihnen gesponserten Organisationen. Die inhaltsanalytische Aufarbeitung dieser ergab als zentrales Ergebnis, dass eine Sozialsponsoring-Kooperation bei entsprechender Planung sehr wohl zu einem beidseitigen Benefit führen kann. Im Hinblick auf die angesprochene Vorbereitung gelang es, anhand der Ergebnisse einige vertiefende Hypothesen zu generieren, die als Ausgangsbasis für weiterführende Forschung dienen sollen.
description: The aim of this master thesis was to find out whether Social Sponsoring can bring subjectively perceived benefits for the two parties involved, both sponsoring companies and sponsored organizations. The research is based on the assumption that criticism (against Social Sponsoring on the one hand and regarding the second essential theoretical concept, Corporate Social Responsibility, on the other) may be reduced if it turns out that under certain conditions none of the partners has to suffer disadvantages. It was the objective of this research paper to investigate this possibility by interviewing eight experts of sponsoring companies and seventeen of their sponsored organizations. A qualitative content analysis of the material showed as a result that a social sponsoring cooperation can of course create bilateral benefits, provided that an adequate planning is undertaken beforehand. Based on this, several hypotheses could be generated which can be used as a starting point for continuative analysis.

title: Vermittlung und Erwerb von Medienkompetenz in der Schule
Creators: name: Berlakovich, Beate
Year: 2009

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit ist dem Fachbereich Medienpädagogik zuzuordnen und beschäftigt sich mit dem Konzept Medienkompetenz. Der Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit liegt bei den Heranwachsenden im Schulalter. Zunächst erfolgt eine Ausarbeitung der Notwendigkeit der Fähigkeit zur Medienkompetenz bzw. dieses umfassenden Bündels von Qualifikationen in der heutigen Informations- und Mediengesellschaft, die veränderte Anforderungen an die Nutzung von Medien stellt. Weiters folgt eine inhaltliche Auseinandersetzung mit dem Begriff der Medienkompetenz und den im fachlichem Diskurs ausgearbeiteten Konzepten. Die theoretische Ausarbeitung befasst sich mit der Frage, wie Medienkompetenz in der Praxis zu erwerben bzw. zu vermitteln ist. Die Schule besitzt für die Vermittlung der erforderlichen Fähigkeiten eine tragende Rolle. Weiters besteht die Notwendigkeit, die Vermittlung von Medienkompetenz in Lehrplan, schulspezifischen Konzepten und individuellen Stundenvorbereitungen aufzunehmen. Aktives und handelndes Lernen seitens der Schüler scheint geeignet zu sein, sich mit Medien auseinanderzusetzen, wobei eine theoretische Auseinandersetzung ebenso erforderlich ist wie eine praktische Nutzung der Medien und eine Reflexion über ihre Wirkungen und Intentionen. Ebenso wird die neue Rolle des Lehrers untersucht, der zunehmend die Schüler zur Eigenaktivität anleitet. Als wichtiger Aspekt der Umsetzung des Konzepts Medienkompetenz in die schulische Praxis gilt die Implementierung eines umfassenden schulischen Medienkonzepts. Mittels einer empirischen Untersuchung wurde die Umsetzung des Konzepts Medienkompetenz in die Praxis anhand einer ausgewählten Handelsakademie in Form einer Fallstudie exemplarisch erfasst. Mit Hilfe qualitativer Interviews wurde der Medieneinsatz im Unterricht und seine Lehr-Lernziele analysiert und die Einarbeitung des Konzeptes Medienkompetenz in die Schulorganisation und den Schulunterricht herausgearbeitet.
