title: Die positive Kraft der Delphine
Creators: name: Fürst, Claudia
Year: 2009

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Versuch Einblick in die verschiedenen Angebote der Delphintherapie zu gewinnen und aufzuzeigen, dass es Delphintherapie als einheitliches Konzept gar nicht gibt. Anhand einer intensiven Litertaturrecherche und einer empirischen Untersuchung durch einen Elternfragebogen werden die unterschiedlichen Angebote genau beleuchtet. Sowohl Rahmenbedingungen, allgemeine Merkmale als auch theoretisches Konzept, Aufbau, Ablauf und Auswirkungen der Therapie werden untersucht. Ziel ist es aufzuzeigen, dass es signifikante Unterschiede gibt, sowie herauszufinden worin sich die einzelnen Angebote konkret unterscheiden und die Auswirkungen dieser Unterschiede für das Feld der Delphintherapie und die Beteiligten zu erläutern. Es handelt sich hierbei um eine Arbeit die diese Therapieform von einer kritischen Seite betrachtet und vor allem die Problematiken der Delphintherapie skizziert, ohne jedoch der Delphininteraktion positive Auswirkungen abzusprechen. Anhand der Therapieergebnisse, die ebenfalls in der Elternbefragung evaluiert werden, sowie der unterschiedlichen Ausführung und inhaltlichen Ausrichtung wird die Frage aufgeworfen, ob Delphininteraktionen als therapeutische Maßnahmen bezeichnet werden können und ob sie als solche tatsächlich zielführend sind. Ein wesentlicher Teil der Arbeit ist die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Verhältnis zwischen Pädagogik und Therapie. Es wird vorab auf Begrifflichkeiten eingegangen und schließlich das Spannungsfeld zwischen den beiden Bereichen aufgezeigt. Im Rahmen dessen setze ich mich mit meiner eigenen Auffassung von diesem Verhältnis auseinander, definiere und erläutere meine Einstellung zu Therapie und Pädagogik. Für die abschließende Problembetrachtung der Delphintherapie sind eine Darstellung der sehr unterschiedlich interpretierten Selbstbetrachtungen der beiden Disziplinen sowie mein Verständnis von Pädagogik und Therapie notwendig.

description: Abstract.­­––The fossil record is notoriously imperfect and biased in representation, hindering our ability to place fossil specimens into an evolutionary context. For groups with fossil records mostly consisting of disarticulated parts (e.g., vertebrates, echinoderms, plants), the limited morphological information preserved sparks concerns about whether fossils retain reliable evidence of phylogenetic relationships, and lends uncertainty to analyses of diversification, paleobiogeography, and biostratigraphy in Earth history. To address whether a fragmentary past can be trusted, we need to assess whether incompleteness affects the quality of phylogenetic information contained in fossil data. Herein, we characterize skeletal incompleteness bias in a large dataset (6,585 specimens; 14,417 skeletal elements) of fossil squamates (lizards, snakes, amphisbaenians, and mosasaurs). We show that jaws + palatal bones, vertebrae, and ribs appear more frequently in the fossil record than other parts of the skeleton. This incomplete anatomical representation in the fossil record is biased against regions of the skeleton that contain the majority of morphological phylogenetic characters used to assess squamate evolutionary relationships. Despite this bias, parsimony- and model-based comparative analyses indicate that the most frequently-occurring parts of the skeleton in the fossil record retain similar levels of phylogenetic signal as parts of the skeleton that are rarer. These results demonstrate that the biased squamate fossil record contains reliable phylogenetic information, and support our ability to place incomplete fossils in the Tree of Life.

description: The study addresses the fundamental role and relevance of women in the development of the Rap musical genre in the city of São Gonçalo, in Rio de Janeiro and in Brazil. Despite facing obstacles such as sexism and lack of recognition, Rappers have shown resistance and creativity, creating their own space in the rhythm. Her authentic lyrics reflect personal and social experiences, challenging stereotypes and redefining the role of women in the Hip Hop movement. In addition to music, these artists serve as leaders and activists, using their influence to empower other young women. Thus, the research celebrates the influence of these women, who transformed Rap into a movement of social and cultural change
title: Entwicklung eines Oligonukleotid-Mikroarrays für Diversitätsanalysen von Genen der dissimilatorischen Bisulfitreduktase in einem sauren Moorsystem
Creators: name: Hofer, Manuel
Year: 2009

description: Sulfatreduzierende Mikroorganismen (SRM) besitzen das dsrAB-Gen, welches für die Dissimilatorische (Bi-) Sulfit-Reduktase kodiert und sind deshalb in der Lage Sulfat zu Sulfid zu reduzieren. Dabei wird Sulfat als Elektronenakzeptor verwendet und so Energie für das Wachstum gewonnen. Obwohl SRM schon früh in der erdgeschichtlichen Entwicklung entstanden und ubiquitär verbreitet sind ist wenig über deren Häufigkeit und Aktivität in komplexen mikrobiellen Lebensgemeinschaften bekannt. Um SRM genauer zu erforschen wurde während dieser Arbeit ein habitatspezifischer Oligonukleotid-Array für die kultivierungsunabhängige Detektion und Funktionsanalyse ausgewählter SRM entwickelt und validiert. Der zugrunde liegende Sondensatz (146 Sonden) zur Detektion und Identifizierung der verschiedenen dsrAB-Gene (unterteilt in 42 OTU’s) basiert auf vergleichenden Sequenzanalysen der dsrAB-Gene aus einem sauren Niedermoor (Schlöppnerbrunnen, Bayern, Deutschland). Die Entwicklung des Mikroarrays beinhaltete verschiedene Optimierungsschritte während der Mikroarrayproduktion, Herstellung der fluoreszenzmarkierten Nukleinsäureproben, Evaluierung der Hybridisierungsbedingungen und der Validierung des Sondensatzes durch Hybridisierung mit geeigneter Referenz-RNS. Bei der anschließenden Evaluierung der dsrAB-Oligonukleotid-Sonden, durch Hybridisierung mit fluoreszenzmarkierten dsrAB-Genamplifikaten geeigneter Referenzklone, zeigten 99.8% ein erwartetes Hybridisierungsverhalten. Bei der Hybridisierung von nur 1 ng Ziel-RNS war es möglich die RNS mit den korrespondierenden Sonden positiv nachzuweisen, ohne das Auftreten von Falschpositiven- oder Falschnegativen-Hybridisierungsergebnissen. Des Weiteren konnte gezeigt werden, dass bei der Hybridisierung von einer 0.54% Ziel-RNS/Nicht-Ziel-RNS Mischung die Ziel-RNS noch mit allen spezifischen Sonden detektiert werden konnte. So ist es mit Hilfe dieses Mikroarrays möglich SRM im Habitat Schlöppnerbrunnen hoch auflösend binnen 48 h inklusive aller experimentellen Arbeiten zu detektieren.

description: Guanylate-binding protein (GBP) 5 is an interferon (IFN)-inducible cellular factor reducing HIV-1 infectivity by an incompletely understood mechanism. Here, we show that this activity is shared by GBP2, but not by other members of the human GBP family. GBP2/5 decrease the activity of the cellular proprotein convertase furin, which mediates conversion of the HIV-1 envelope protein (Env) precursor gp160 into mature gp120 and gp41. Because this process primes HIV-1 Env for membrane fusion, viral particles produced in the presence of GBP2/5 are poorly infectious due to increased incorporation of non-functional gp160. Furin activity is critical for the processing of envelope glycoproteins of many viral pathogens. Consistently, GBP2/5 also inhibit Zika, measles, and influenza A virus replication and decrease infectivity of viral particles carrying glycoproteins of Marburg and murine leukemia viruses. Collectively, our results show that GPB2/5 exert broad antiviral activity by suppressing the activity of the virus-dependency factor furin.

description: TGF-β1 is a major mediator of airway tissue remodelling during atopic asthma and affects tight junctions (TJs) of airway epithelia. However, its impact on TJs of ciliated epithelia is sparsely investigated. Herein we elaborated effects of TGF-β1 on TJs of primary human bronchial epithelial cells. We demonstrate that TGF-β1 activates TGF-β1 receptors TGFBR1 and TGFBR2 resulting in ALK5-mediated phosphorylation of SMAD2. We observed that TGFBR1 and -R2 localize specifically on motile cilia. TGF-β1 activated accumulation of phosphorylated SMAD2 (pSMAD2-C) at centrioles of motile cilia and at cell nuclei. This triggered an increase in paracellular permeability via cellular redistribution of claudin 3 (CLDN3) from TJs into cell nuclei followed by disruption of epithelial integrity and formation of epithelial lesions. Only ciliated cells express TGF-β1 receptors; however, nuclear accumulations of pSMAD2-C and CLDN3 redistribution were observed with similar time course in ciliated and non-ciliated cells. In summary, we demonstrate a role of motile cilia in TGF-β1 sensing and showed that TGF-β1 disturbs TJ permeability of conductive airway epithelia by redistributing CLDN3 from TJs into cell nuclei. We conclude that the observed effects contribute to loss of epithelial integrity during atopic asthma.

description: Myosin 7a is often used to visualise sensory hair cells due to its well-characterised and localised expression profile. We thus conducted myosin-7a immunostaining across all 3 turns of the adult rat organ of Corti to visualise hair cells. As expected, we observed myosin 7a staining in both inner and outer hair cells. Unexpectedly, we also observed strong myosin 7a staining in the medial olivocochlear efferent synaptic boutons contacting the outer hair cells. Efferent bouton myosin-7a staining was present across all 3 turns of the cochlea. We verified this localisation by co-staining with a known efferent bouton marker, the vesicular acetylcholine transporter.
description: Data is in the tiff file format, which can be opened using ImageJ (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/) or any other program with similar capabilities. Data has been zipped up for easier download and organised in the zip file according to which figure it is associated within the manuscript. Labelling of individual files reflects the stainings, turn of the rat cochlea from which it has been acquired (base, mid, apex), rat from which it was acquired and/or cochlea of the rat, if relevant.
description: A Leica SP5 upright confocal microscope with two-photon imaging capabilities was used to image the exposed and stained organs of Corti. Cochleas were superglued to the lids of 55-mm diameter cell culture Petri dishes prior to imaging to ensure the organ of Corti would be in an appropriate orientation and immersed in PBS. The Argon 488, Diode 543, Diode 594 and Diode 633 were used for single-photon excitation of the Alexa dyes conjugated to the secondary antibodies and the Mai Tai eHP DeepSee 5332 laser set to a wavelength of 800 nm was used for two-photon excitation of the phalloidin conjugated Alexa 405. A 25x/0.95NA water immersion objective (HCX IRAPO L25x/0.95 W) was used. Images were recorded in 12 bits at a resolution of 1024 x 1024 and further appropriate Look Up Table colors and processed in ImageJ (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/). Methods are described in detail in the publication "Immunohistochemistry localises myosin-7a to cochlear efferent boutons" which has been conditionally accepted for publication in the journal Welcome Open Research.

description: The positive benefits of exposure to nature and green spaces related to wellness are well-documented. A structured walk in a garden or park setting, in combination with reflective journaling, has proven to be invaluable and life-changing to community members suffering from the adverse effects of stress and trauma suffering from grief, depression, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and other types of trauma, all of which are becoming more prevalent in our society. The Morikami Japanese Gardens in Florida, the Bloedel Reserve in Washington, and other publicly accessible gardens have developed these types of guided wellness programs. These are often referred to as prescribed or suggested “strolls” that are mapped for improving mindful, active, and engaged contact with nature. A therapeutic walking program promotes well-being and resilience in the face of adversity. With the large population of veterans in Maryland communities, plus countless local medical providers serving clients suffering from a diverse challenges, Brookside Gardens is located and poised to serve these populations and improve wellness outcomes for a range of Maryland and regional residents. As Brookside Gardens is poised to expand on health and wellness programming, it has sought the assistance of the University of Maryland’s Partnership for Action Learning in Sustainability (PALS). PALS assists local governments while offering valuable real-world problem-solving experience for graduate and undergraduate students.  In spring 2018, the Landscape Architecture Program collaborated with PALS and Brookside Gardens to create a Special Topics Course (LARC 489Z) that offered research and technical support for the proposed “Stroll for Wellness” program.  There are many populations near the Gardens who might benefit from guided wellness programming, including those suffering from trauma, depression or chronic illness. A growing body of research has documented nature’s healing effects and Brookside Gardens offers a safe, inspirational setting where visitors can immerse themselves in nature with the kinetic experience of moving through garden spaces, a resource that can spark creativity and introspection.

title: The Development of Novel Pulse Shape Analysis Algorithms for AGATA
Creators: name: Holloway, Fraser
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2022

description: In the field of Nuclear Physics the use of large-scale γ-Ray Tracking (GRT) for arrays like the Advanced Gamma Tracking Array (AGATA) is critical in pushing the envelope of our understanding of the complex phenomena that govern our universe. GRT allows for AGATA to track γ-rays across crystals within the array, allowing for unrivalled Doppler correction and Compton add-back. In order for GRT to function effectively, the interaction position and energy depositions of γ-rays within the array must be effectively determined using Pulse Shape Analysis (PSA). Within AGATA, optimisation-based PSA methods are used to localise γ-ray interactions by comparing experimental detector signals against a simulated basis. A simulated basis has been produced for the A005 AGATA detector crystal, which was used to underpin the development and evaluation of novel PSA methods. Machine Learning was also utilised to perform signal discrimination, compression, correction & regression. Graph-Accelerated k-Nearest Neighbour techniques for PSA were profiled and found to offer significant improvements to execution rate and accuracy. An extensive investigation into the performance of the PSA algorithms with respect to noise level, timeshifting and embedded dimensionality was performed to determine to the most effective algorithm of PSA for AGATA. By utilising the GPU & graph-accelerated algorithm Facebook AI Similarity Search (FAISS) on a principal component analysis reduced 100D embedding, comparable accuracy to the accepted standard was found with an ∼ 43, 000% increase in execution rate. The mathematical framework for the efficient precomputation of the responses of γ-rays that interact multiple times across the crystal (High-Fold) is proposed that should allow the augmentation of Fold-1 kNN search to work on High-Fold with minimal penalty to execution rate. It has also been demonstrated that FAISS can successfully reconstruct a variety of experimental data acquired with AGATA detector crystals.

Negative body size-dependent resource allocation underlies conspicuous sexual ornaments in a territorial damselfly
Creators: name: Xu, Mingzi
name: Fincke, Ola
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Sexual ornaments, signaling individual quality to choosing females or rival males, often show steeper body size scaling compared to non-sexually selected traits. Theory posits such steeper body size scaling is the result of differential resource allocation, reflecting trade-offs between different components of fitness. Yet the process of resource allocation towards body size-dependent sexual ornaments has been rarely understood empirically. Using the Neotropical territorial damselfly Megaloprepus caerulatus, whose males and females carry wax-based, sex-specific white wing bands and white wing tips respectively, we investigated nutrition sensitivity and body size scaling of both traits by manipulating larval food availability and directly quantified both the fat allocated to wing ornaments and the fat reserve from which allocations are made. Both color traits exhibited sensitivity to food availability during larval development and steeper body size scaling compared to control traits. Although the absolute amount of fat invested in developing the color ornaments increased with body size, the proportion of total fat allocated to the ornaments decreased with body size, making exaggerated ornaments less affordable for smaller individuals. Our data demonstrate that knowledge of affordability of exaggeration for resource-based sexual ornament, which requires measuring the resource pool from which ornaments are derived is essential for understanding the maintenance of honesty of sexual signals.

title: Das Paradox - Diskontinuität und Kontinuität, radikaler Offenbarungsglaube und prozesshaft vermitteltes Unbekanntes?
Creators: name: Hauser, Stefan
Year: 2009

description: Anhand der Philosophischen Brocken, die Sören Kierkegaard unter dem Pseudonym Climacus verfasste, soll in dieser Diplomarbeit dem Begriff „Paradox“ nachgegangen werden. Das erste Kapitel beschäftigt sich überwiegend mit dem Yearbook 2004 der Kierkegaard Studies, dessen Beiträge den untersuchten Forschungsstand zu den Philosophischen Brocken abbilden. Im Folgenden werden wichtige Begriffe unter Heranziehung weiterer Werke seines Œuvres erläutert. Indem wir Nikodemus’ Verhalten gegenüber Jesus beobachten, erfahren wir, mit welchen Zweifeln Climacus sich Glaubensfragen, die auf ein historisches Wissen bauen, annähert. Vom erkennenden und lebenden Subjekt her ergeben sich zwei widersprüchliche des Paradoxes. Dem Moment der Kontinuität steht das Moment der Diskontinuität gegenüber. Dem Konzept der Kenosis (Phil 2,5–8), das die Selbstaufgabe als notwendige Voraussetzung zu einem Selbstgewinn in Beziehung zu einem Anderen beschreibt steht das Konzept der dem menschlichen Bewusstsein uneinholbaren Wirklichkeit gegenüber. Sprachlich erhält Kierkegaard diese Spannung von Kontinuität und Diskontinuität aufrecht, indem er in einer vielstimmigen Rede spricht. Die eine Stimme handelt in ernsthafter Rede das Gedicht der Kenosis und die damit verbundene Hoffnung für uns Menschen, dass wir in ein Beziehungsgeschehen mit einem uns unbekannt bleibenden Gott hineingenommen sind. Daneben und als bleibende Unterbrechung verwendet er jedoch auch die ironische Rede, wodurch das Moment der Diskontinuität, des Sich-nicht-abgefunden-Habens mit der unbekannten Wirklichkeit zum Ausdruck kommt. Durch die Vielstimmigkeit soll die Leidenschaft des Denkens entfacht werden, und ein Verstehen und Existieren vom niemals verstehbaren Unbekannten her gewagt werden.

description: Measurement in personality development faces many psychometric problems. First, theory–based measurement models do not fit the empirical data in terms of traditional confirmatory factor analysis. Second, measurement invariance across age, which is necessary for a meaningful interpretation of age–associated personality differences, is rarely accomplished. Finally, continuous moderator variables, such as age, are often artificially categorized. This categorization leads to bias when interpreting differences in personality across age. In this tutorial, we introduce methods to remedy these problems. We illustrate how Ant Colony Optimization can be used to sample indicators that meet prespecified demands such as model fit. Further, we use Local Structural Equation Modeling to resample and weight subjects to study differences in the measurement model across age as a continuous moderator variable. We also provide a detailed illustration for both tools with the Neuroticism scale of the openly available International Personality Item Pool – NEO inventory using data from the UK sample (N = 15 827). Combined, both tools can remedy persistent problems in research on personality and its development. In addition to a step–by–step illustration, we provide commented syntax for both tools. © 2019 European Association of Personality Psychology

description: Although past research has convincingly shown that rewarding prosocial individuals helps to establish high levels of cooperation, research investigating factors that promote rewarding others has been surprisingly rare. The present research addresses this gap and examines two factors that were shown in past research to play a role in prosocial behaviour. In a well-powered study (total N = 1003), we tested the impact of (a) a basic prosocial personality trait (the Honesty-Humility dimension from the HEXACO personality model) and (b) intuitive decision-making, as well as (c) their interaction, in rewarding prosocial individuals. We found that (1) intuition promotes rewarding prosocial others; (2) Honesty-Humility was not significantly related to rewarding prosocial others; and (3) that Honesty- Humility did not significantly moderate the effect of intuition on reward. Implications for the understanding of reciprocating others’ prosocial behaviour are discussed.
Extant species fail to estimate ancestral geographical ranges at older nodes in primate phylogeny

description: A clade's evolutionary history is shaped, in part, by geographical range expansion, sweepstakes dispersal and local extinction. A rigorous understanding of historical biogeography may therefore yield insights into macroevolutionary dynamics such as adaptive radiation. Modern historical biogeographic analyses typically fit statistical models to molecular phylogenies, but it remains unclear whether extant species provide sufficient signal or if well-sampled phylogenies of extinct and extant taxa are necessary to produce meaningful estimates of past ranges. We investigated the historical biogeography of Primates and their euarchontan relatives using a novel meta-analytical phylogeny of over 900 extant ( n = 419) and extinct ( n = 483) species spanning their entire evolutionary history. Ancestral range estimates for young nodes were largely congruent with those derived from molecular phylogeny. However, node age exerts a significant effect on ancestral range estimate congruence, and the probability of congruent inference dropped below 0.5 for nodes older than the late Eocene, corresponding to the origins of higher-level clades. Discordance was not observed in analyses of extinct taxa alone. Fossils are essential for robust ancestral range inference and biogeographic analyses of extant clades originating in the deep past should be viewed with scepticism without them.

description: Increased levels of light, moderate and vigorous physical activity (PA) are positively associated with health benefits. Therefore, sensor-based human activity recognition can identify different types and levels of PA. In this paper, we propose a two-layer locomotion recognition method using dynamic time warping applied to inertial sensor data. Based on a video-validated dataset (ADAPT), which included inertial sensor data recorded at the lower back (L5 position) during an unsupervised task-based free-living protocol, the recognition algorithm was developed, validated and tested. As a first step, we focused on the identification of locomotion activities walking, ascending and descending stairs. These activities are difficult to differentiate due to a high similarity. The results showed that walking could be recognized with a sensitivity of 88% and a specificity of 89%. Specificity for stair climbing was higher compared to walking, but sensitivity was noticeably decreased. In most cases of misclassification, stair climbing was falsely detected as walking, with only 0.2–5% not assigned to any of the chosen types of locomotion. Our results demonstrate a promising approach to recognize and differentiate human locomotion within a variety of daily activities.

title: Azido-Derivate von Glucose und Cellobiose
Creators: name: Schmiedel, Nicola
Year: 2009

description: Azido-Derivate von Glucose lassen sich auf organisch-chemischem Wege aus Glucose herstellen. Im Gegensatz zu bestimmten niedermolekularen Azidoverbindungen oder Schwermetallaziden sind die bisher bekannten Azidozucker stabile, im Labor unproblematisch handhabbare Verbindungen. Azidozucker werden als Zwischenprodukte für kombiniert organisch-chemische und enzymkatalysierte Synthesen von künstlichen Aminopolysacchariden verwendet. Ausgangsmaterial beta-D-Glucose werden in acht bzw neun organisch-chemischen Schritten zu 6-Azido-6-desoxy-alpha,beta-D-glucose und Allyl-2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-azido-6-desoxy-beta-glucopyranosid umgewandelt. Diese dienen als Ausgangsmaterial für die Alkin-Azid Kopplung. Bei der Alkin-Azid Kopplung handelt es sich um eine 1,3-dipolare Cycloaddition, bei der Triazole entstehen. Diese sind Modell für die weitere Entwicklung von Diagnostiksystemen für IgE. Dabei dient dann das Alkin-Azid Kopplungssystem als Verbindungsarm zwischen den Glycopeptiden und einer Mikrotiterplatte (Linker-Molekül). Weiter wurde durch Cellobiosephosphorylase 6-Azido-6-deoxycellobiose hergestellt, aus 6-Azido-6-deoxy-D-glucose und Glucose-1-phosphat.

description: The characterization of materials is crucial in various industrial sectors, yet it is often fraught with challenges due to the diversity of methods and terminologies. This presentation introduces the CHAMEO ontology, designed as a common modeling framework for materials characterization, which can be used for the development of method and application specific ontologies, thereby promoting and facilitating interoperability within the community. CHAMEO, together with its derived ontologies, aims to provide a reference for FAIR documentation of characterisation experiments and protocols.

The Making Available Right: Realizing the Potential of Copyright's Dissemination Function in the Digital Age
Creators: name: Foong, Cheryl
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2018

description: This thesis seeks to analyse the scope of the making available right as introduced by the WIPO Internet Treaties, and provide insights that can guide the interpretation of the right going forward. It does so by critically analysing the key elements of the making available right ― an “act” of making available that is to “the public”. The thesis evaluates current judicial approaches to the right in Australia, the US and EU, and attempts to uncover the underlying theories and justifications driving these disparate decisions. Review of current and historical approaches to “acts” of communication, performance or making available reveal superficial analysis of the “act”, and show that courts have taken expansive approaches to “the public” in key cases. An express justification in these instances tends to be the advancement of copyright’s authorship incentivising function. Unfortunately, these decisions do not adequately address copyright’s dissemination function, i.e. to encourage public access to knowledge. This thesis fills a void in copyright scholarship by expanding on copyright’s dissemination function and advancing our understanding of this important objective. It aims to produce a framework for the interpretation and development of the making available right that furthers copyright’s dissemination function, as well as its authorship function, in the internet era.
