description: We will investigate ultra-dense, low power, high performance, data-intensive computing systems based on nanoscale Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) technologies. RRAM technologies, such as memristors, are promising for exa-scale systems due to high integration density and low energy consumption. In addition, RRAM devices uniquely enable ‘in-memory’ computation in which the storage system itself computes Boolean logic and correlation between the stored information and input within nanoseconds. With the ‘in-memory’ computing capability of RRAM arrays, high-performance computing will become feasible within the storage system, with low power and short access latency. We will focus on the design of practical massive storage systems capable of energy-efficient search, based on RRAM-based high-density resistive XOR primitives. Together with RRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), such ‘in-memory’ searching systems will enable real-time search for target patterns in data sets generated by scientific instruments, voice, text, and web content in a dynamically changing environment. Embedding low-power searching into RRAM arrays configured as ternary content addressable memories (CAMs) will benefit a wide range of applications, such as scientific data analysis of climate, astronomy, or bioinformatics, as well as national security applications including cybersecurity, surveillance, and forensics. An interdisciplinary research team will collaborate for the project. The UCSC group led by S. Kang will investigate basic nanoscale CAM cell units and related circuits that can perform low-power search with minimal latency. Special attentions will ensure that devised circuits and their models will warrant stable system performance, despite the variability of RRAM devices. The LLNL group led by M. Gokhale will investigate system architectures, and evaluate their performances through application-driven system-level simulation using the UCSC models and provide feedback for further development of circuit modules.

description: The problem of data integration involving imaging and non-imaging modalities is largely  unexplored in the biomedical  eld, mainly due to the challenges in quantitatively combining  such heterogeneous modalities existing in diff erent dimensions and scales. Although  several methods have been proposed in the literature involving quantitative  integration of multi-protocol imaging, there has been a paucity of similar biomedical  tools for quantitative integration of imaging and non-imaging data. In this work,  we present novel data integration schemes to overcome the aforementioned challenges  limiting the integration of imaging and non-imaging modalities, and hence improve  disease characterization. Our novel data integration methods are applied to integration  of multi-parametric Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging (MP-MRI)-structural MR  imaging with metabolic spectroscopic information (non-imaging) for improved prostate  cancer (CaP) diagnosis, grading, and treatment evaluation post-radiation therapy (RT).  To this end, we have developed novel data integration schemes such as, Multimodal  Wavelet Embedding Representation for data Combination (MaWERiC), and Semi-Supervised Multi-Kernel (SeSMiK) Graph Embedding, which fi rst uniformly represent  individual data modalities into a common framework using dimensionality reduction  and kernel embedding techniques, followed by a seamless integration of imaging  and non-imaging data in the common framework. The integrated quantitative signatures  thus obtained are shown to be signifi cantly more diagnostically informative as  compared to any single modality. Similar improvement in results was observed using  integrated MP-MRI signatures for evaluating radiation therapy related changes in CaP  patients, with an aim to identify (a) pre-RT disease extent along with extra capsule  spread (if any) and (b) residual disease on post-RT MP-MRI.

description: Examination of Urban Homesteading as an urban renewal strategy for remediation for inner city housing abandonment.  The previous research on causal factors of inner city residential abandonment are discussed. The two strategies of urban renewal are examined, rehabilitation of existing structures and redevelopment. The City of Philadelphia Urban Homesteading program  is used as a data source for a regression analysis of demographic factors of abandonments and urban homesteading selection criteria. Conclusions of the research are the correlation between housing abandonment and urban homesteading selection criteria. Funding is the overshadowing factor in the success of urban homesteading and the driving force in residential abandonment.

description:
Oral immunotherapy (OIT) and sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) have emerged as possible treatments for those affected by peanut allergy. Trials have demonstrated safety and efficacy, but the ability to introduce peanut afterwards and its long-term effects have not been well described. At our center, upon completion of an immunotherapy protocol, all subjects demonstrating desensitization to greater than or equal to 300 mg of peanut were instructed to introduce dietary peanut and were invited to participate in this study. The Determining the Efficacy and Value of Immunotherapy on the Likelihood of Peanut Tolerance study (early peanut OIT trial) demonstrated that 300 mg of peanut protein provided comparable clinical outcomes to 3000 mg of protein with better tolerability. Based on these findings, 300 mg of daily peanut protein food was recommended following immunotherapy completion. Families that wished to push the dose higher could do so under close guidance.
Nanotechnology-based approaches for regenerative medicine and biosensing

description: The recent emergence of nanotechnology has set high expectations in many fields of science, especially in biology and medicine. Nanotechnology-based approaches are expected to solve key questions in the emerging field of regenerative medicine. Regenerative medicine essentially deals with regeneration of cells, ultimately leading to the formation of tissues and organs. For this purpose, stem cells, embryonic stem cells or adult stem cells, are thought to be ideal resources. However, many challenges need to be addressed before the full therapeutic potential of stem cells can be harnessed. Controlling the differentiation of stem cells into cells of a specific lineage is extremely vital and challenging. Addressing this challenge, in this work, novel nanotechnology-based approaches for controlling the differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) into neurons has been presented. Regeneration of damaged neurons, due to traumatic injuries or degenerative diseases, is extremely challenging. For this purpose, NSCs can be used as resources that can differentiate into neurons, thus having great potential in solving needs of many patients suffering from such conditions.     For controlling the differentiation of stem cells, soluble cues (comprising of small molecules and biomolecules) and insoluble cues (cell-cell interactions and cell-microenvironment interactions) play a very important role. The delivery of soluble cues, such as genetic material, into stem cells is extremely challenging. The initial part of this work presents the use of nanomaterials for efficiently delivering soluble cues such as small molecules and small interfering RNA (siRNA) into NSCs for controlling their differentiation into neurons. However, for regenerative purposes, it is preferred that least amounts of the delivery vehicle be used. Thus, the following part of the thesis presents the development and applications of nanotechnology-based approaches for enhancing the differentiation of NSCs into neurons using insoluble cues. The cellular microenviroment, consisting for the extracellular matrix (ECM) was modified by the use of nanostructures, to deliver siRNA into NSCs to enhance neuronal differentiation. Nanotopography-mediated reverse uptake of only the siRNA molecules from the ECM was achieved by the NSCs. NSC differentiation was also controlled by the use of protein micropatterns, wherein the pattern geometry and size defined the fate of the NSCs. Lastly, graphene, in combination with nanoparticles was used as component of the ECM to not only enhance the differentiation of NSCs into neurons, but also align the axons of the differentiated NSCs, having significant implications for its use in regenerating injured spinal cords.    The final portion of the thesis presents the applications of nanotechnology for developing highly sensitive and selective biosensors, for detecting biomarkers implicated in various diseases such as cancer and acute pancreatitis.

Escherichia coli O15&:H& cell surface moieties trigger plant defense response influencing survival of that pathogen on plants
Creators: name: Seo, Seung-Wook
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Previous studies have shown that human pathogens are able to colonize plants epiphytically and endophytically by utilizing similar mechanisms as phytopathogens. In addition, it has been suggested that colonization of plants by human pathogens induces plant defense responses, although some of their pathogenic mechanisms differ from those of phytopathogens. However, knowledge about the mechanism by which human pathogens colonize and persist on or in fruits and vegetables is limited compared to the research in plant pathogens. Also it is not well understood what factors are involved in intimate association of foodborne pathogens with plants and the plant response to enteric bacteria.     To address these questions, we investigated whether Escherichia coli O15&:H& cell surface structures induce plant host defense responses and subsequently affect  colonization or survival of the pathogen on plants. Also, the influence of  growth medium or exposure conditions on bacterial cell surface structures, particularly in exopolysaccharides, was investigated, and subsequent impacts on plant defense responses and bacterial survival on plants were also examined.     Among the pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), flagella made a substantial impact on survival of E. coli O15&:H& on the Arabidopsis plant. Curli were recognized by the Arabidopsis plant and induced plant defense responses. E. coli O15&:H& mutants lacking flagella or curli induced lower PR (pathogenesis-related) genes based on the weak β-glucuronidase (GUS) activity compared to flagella or curli positive  E. coli O15&:H&, resulting in increased survivals of those mutants on the plant.      E. coli O15&:H& grown in Luria-Bertani (LB) broth supplemented with manure extracts showed a significant 58% increase in capsular polysaccharides (CPS) production as compared to cells grown in LB medium alone. Exposure of E. coli cells to soil and manure extracts also stimulated the CPS compared to the non-exposed control. Plants inoculated with E. coli O15&:H& with a greater amounts of CPS resulted in less inductions of PR genes compared to those with less CPS, contributed to the enhanced survivals on the Arabidopsis plant.      Cell surface structures of E. coli O15&:H& have a significant impact on the induction of differential plant defense responses, thereby impacting survival of the pathogen on plants. Growth medium or exposure environment conditions showed a great impact on bacterial CPS, which enabled the human pathogen to persist longer on the plant by possibly evading plant defense responses.

Surveying the metabolic versatility of biofilm-forming Epsilonproteobacteria
Creators: name: OBrien, Charles Edward
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: At deep-sea hydrothermal vents, mixing of reduced, super-heated, hydrothermal fluids with cold, oxygenated, seawater creates steep temperature and chemical gradients that support chemosynthetic primary production and rich communities of invertebrates. In 2006, an eruption occurred on East Pacific Rise at 9° 50’N, 104° 1&’W. Direct observations of the post-eruptive diffuse flow vents clearly indicated that the earliest colonizers were microbial biofilms. A series of cruises in 2006-0& allowed us to monitor the recovery of the ecosystem.   The main objectives of this dissertation are to assess the taxonomic and functional diversity of chemosynthetic bacteria following the eruption, and to correlate it to macrofaunal colonization. To this end, I investigated several microbial biofilms that developed at the bottom of the ocean during exposure to different temperature, redox and biological regimes. Furthermore, I selected pure cultures of vent bacteria representative of these biofilms and designed experiments to investigate their expression of diagnostic genes involved in carbon fixation and respiration. Finally, I used the information obtained from the pure cultures and from metatranscriptomic studies of the vent biofilms to design experiments for the detection of gene transcripts in chemosynthetic microbial biofilm communities collected from deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and to interpret the results.   My data showed that the biofilm communities that were exposed to active venting were substantially different from the ones that formed at control sites, and that vent invertebrates could only be detected at the former sites. Furthermore, I found that various members of the Epsilonproteobacteria dominated the chemosynthetic biofilm communities, and that these bacteria fixed carbon dioxide in-situ via the reverse tricarboxylic acid (rTCA) cycle and that they expressed different terminal reductases in response to variable temperature and redox conditions.   I demonstrated for the first time that different respiratory pathways (e.g., nitrate reduction, sulfur oxidation/reduction, microaerobic respiration) are expressed simultaneously in chemosynthetic biofilms. In turn, these results imply that the extremely dynamic conditions found at diffuse flow vents, where reduced hydrothermal fluids mix with oxic seawater, provide the biofilm bacteria with a diverse “metabolic menu” in the form of different redox couples that they can use to conserve energy.

Remarks
The genus Arius undoubtedly has the most complex taxonomy of the Ariidae, serving to accommodate taxa without clear affinities elsewhere (Marceniuk and Menezes2007). Recent morphological studies have recognized the monophyly of Arius with the inclusion of Betancurichthys madagascariensis (Marceniuk and Menezes 2007, Marceniuk et al. 2012), an arrangement not supported by Betancur-R. (2009), a molecular study that does not recognize the monophyly of Arius. The MP and ML analysis supports the monophyly of Arius without Betancurichthys madagascariensis.

Year: 2013

description: Thin Film Transistor (TFT) is emerging for large area electronics and systems. TFT applications include displays, photovoltaics, sensors, smart labels, lighting, integrated logic devices, and embedded power sources. However, the conventional amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFTs, which have dominated display technologies as switch devices in control circuitry, are facing severe challenges due to its low electron mobility (≦1 cm2/V-s) and opacity. The advanced display systems demand the new TFT technology with low power consumption, high resolution, large area, and fast refresh rate.  There has been increasing interest in the use of oxide-based TFTs as electronic back-plane switching devices for the next generation of large area flat-panel display applications. Zinc oxide (ZnO) has been receiving considerable attention as a promising oxide semiconductor for TFT technology for the future displays due to its higher electron mobility (~10-50 cm2/V-s), transparency in visible light region, and superior radiation hardness over the a-Si TFTs. To implement ZnO TFTs into novel display systems, stability of ZnO TFTs is the most critical issue and has to be examined.                        The aim of this dissertation research is to study and enhance electrical characteristics and stability of ZnO TFTs using the ternary MgxZn1-xO (0 ≤  x ≤ 0.06) as the TFT channel layer. The MgxZn1-xO (MZO) is grown by Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) through in-situ alloying of MgO and ZnO. Mg composition in the MgxZn1-xO is controlled below 6% (x ≤ 0.06) to avoid alloying disorder induced degradation. In the ternary compound MgxZn1-xO, the incorporation of Mg into ZnO along with stronger Mg-O bonding effectively suppresses the oxygen vacancy related defects and improves the electrical characteristics of ZnO-based TFTs. The lower subthreshod slope and higher field effect mobility are obtained in MZO TFTs. In addition, MZO TFTs technology exhibits superior thermal stability. Under a negative bias stress (NBS) testing, MZO TFTs show smaller negative shift of threshold voltages than that of the ZnO counterpart, owing to less ionization and migration of oxygen vacancies.             The new MZO TFTs technology presents a great impact on the future classes of low cost and large area electronic applications, such as display systems, sensor arrays, and solar energy conversion.

description: At deep-sea hydrothermal vents, the flux of energy is mediated by microbial oxidations, through the conversion of the chemical energy stored in reduced compounds (e.g., sulfide, hydrogen, hydrocarbons) into biochemical energy. Natural hydrocarbons are largely formed by the thermal decomposition of organic matter (thermogenesis) or by microbial processes. However, hydrocarbons can also have an abiotic origin and may form, in hydrothermal systems, by water-rock interactions, for example involving Fisher-Tropsch reactions and the serpentinization of ultramafic rocks. Despite the observation that hydrocarbons are enriched in deep-sea hydrothermal vents, our knowledge of the taxonomic and functional diversity of alkane-oxidizing bacteria from these environments remains very limited. In this dissertation, I investigated the diversity of alkane oxidizing bacteria and the genes alkB, CYP153 and almA by performing enrichment cultures for hydrocarbon oxidizing microorganisms from fluid samples and biomass collected from experimental microcolonizers that were deployed on diffuse flow vents on the East Pacific Rise at 9°N and in the Guaymas Basin. These enrichments led to the successful isolations of pure cultures of aerobic, mesophilic organisms capable of using n-alkanes as their carbon sources. Our isolates were, for the most part, Gammaproteobacteria of the genus Acinetobacter and Alcanivorax, but some rare occurring bacteria that were numerically relevant in the environments were also isolated. The PCR amplification of the alkB, CYP153 and almA gene fragments from these isolates, and a phylogenetic analysis of these genes was carried out. The alkB, CYP153 and almA genes encode for the alkane hydroxylase, cytochrome P450 and flavin binding monooxygenase respectively, which are enzymes that catalyze the first reaction in the stepwise oxidation of n-alkanes.  Furthermore, transcripts of the alkB gene were detected in two model organisms from the laboratory culture collection, Alcanivorax sp. strain EPR & and Acinetobacter sp. strain EPR 111. Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-PCR) experiments showed that alkB transcripts could be detected in the presence of dodecane but not in acetate, confirming that, in these strains, the alkB gene is induced. Finally, a functional gene survey of alkB genes in vent natural microbial populations showed that the majority of the detected sequences derived from Gammaproteobacteria and Alphaproteobacteria.

Percents are not natural numbers

description: Adults are prone to treating percents, one representational format of rational numbers, as novel cases of natural number.  This suggests that percent values are not differentiated from natural numbers; a conceptual shift from the natural numbers to the rational numbers has not yet occurred.  This is most surprising, considering people are inundated with rational numbers all around them, from the “% Daily Values” on nutrition labels to sales and discounts in stores to the constant ups and downs of gas prices.  From an early age, humans have a rather robust concept of natural number, but this earlier knowledge seems to act as a barrier to future learning of rational number.  While participants performed better on one-statement problems with a single percent, they ignored the principles of rational number when presented with two-statement percent problems.  For example, using rational numbers involves dropping the successor principle, a principle that applies to the natural numbers.  Problems presented algebraically gave participants great difficulty, though performance improved when subjects were able to replace the variable y with a natural number (100).  When using a numerical hint (substituting in a value during a training phase), participants still did not improve their performance on algebra problems in posttest.  Error analyses revealed a strong tendency for students to interpret the problems as novel examples of natural number problems.  This research discusses the failure to understand percents in light of overuse or failure to apply the natural number successor principle, division, false cognates, and the absence of knowledge that relates multiple rational number representations to a common underlying knowledge structure.  The amount of previous math experience is also correlated with the ease of moving between natural number and rational number concepts.

description: The Van Allen radiation belts are tori regions of the near-Earth environment populated by energetic particles, that are trapped by the Earth’s magnetic field. Energetic particles in the Van Allen radiation belts, commonly referred to as trapped radiation, pose a significant risk to Earth-orbiting satellites and humans in space. The space radiation was discovered by James Van Allen using measurements from the first US satellite mission, Explorer 1. Over 50 years after this first discovery of the space age, our understanding of the dynamics of the radiation belts is still incomplete. Satellite measurements are usually limited to a single location in space, which complicates the data analysis. Up until recently most of the research concentrated on the analysis of data from individual spacecraft, which does not allow inferring the global evolution of the radiation environment. In this study we propose to combine measurements that are available at UCLA from NASA’s THEMIS mission (administered by UCLA), Lomonosov mission (instruments built at ULCA) with data available at LANL GPS and upcoming NASA’s RBSP (instruments built at LANL) and other publically available measurements such as Cluster, GOES, NOAA, and the upcoming ERG mission. These measurements will be blended with UCLA-LANL Data-driven Inner-Magnetosphere Assimilative code by means of data assimilation and will allow to globally reconstruct energetic electron fluxes in the inner magnetosphere. UCLA and LANL have unique resources that should be combined to achieve the objectives of this project. The multi-dimensional data assimilative code will allow us to utilize a vast array of available data at various locations in space. We will use the results of data assimilation to globally study the system and to understand the competing mechanisms of acceleration and loss of particles. The UCLA-LANL data-assimilative code will also be capable of nowcasting the space weather conditions in the near-Earth environment.
