description: Molecular marker use is one of the most important tool in development in the field of population genetics from the last several years. These techniques are used to detect and exploit the DNA polymorphism among different individuals at species and/or population levels. Several molecular markers have been developed during the past few decades, and their various principles and procedures endow them different properties, according to which, some factors, such as time, cost, repeatability and difficulty, should be considered before selecting the most efficient molecular approach. We reviewed nine frequently-used molecular markers (barcoding, allozymes, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), microsatellite DNA (SSR, STR), inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs), single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), mitochondria DNA (mtDNA)) to be applied to population study of aphids as well as factors affecting genetic diversity of aphid. We aim at providing a basis for the selection of molecular markers in population genetics and obtaining a comprehensive acquaintance of genetic diversity study of aphids for tracing their evolutionary history implicating enlightenments for further aphid control.
description: L\'utilisation de marqueurs moléculaires est l\'un des outils les plus importants en développement dans le domaine de la génétique des populations. Ces éléments doivent être pris en considération avant de sélectionner l\'approche moléculaire la plus efficace aux questions et modèles ciblés. Diverses approches en termes de marqueurs moléculaires sont décrites en relation avec l’étude des populations de pucerons : le bar-coding, les allozymes, le polymorphisme de longueurs de fragments de restriction (RFLP), le polymorphisme de longueur de fragment amplifié (AFLP), l’ADN polymorphe amplifié aléatoirement (RAPD), l’ADN microsatellite (SSR, STR), les répétitions de séquences inter-simples (ISSRs), le polymorphisme nucléotidique simple (SNP), l\'ADN mitochondrial (ADNmt). La synthèse des applications de ces méthodes à l\'étude de populations des pucerons est présentée ainsi que les principaux facteurs affectant la diversité génétique des pucerons. Cette démarche vise à fournir une base pour la sélection des marqueurs moléculaires dans la génétique des populations aphidiennes. La connaissance approfondie des approches appliquées permettra l\'étude de la diversité génétique de pucerons encore non/peu étudiés pour investiguer les aspects évolutifs au sein de ces espèces entomologiques.

description: Les Culicidae sont des insectes piqueur-suceurs de sang appartenant à l’ordre des Diptères et au sous-ordre des Nématocères. Ils occupent la première place, soit par le rôle de vecteur d’organismes pathogènes de certaines espèces, soit par la nuisance des autres. Dans le but de mieux connaitre ces moustiques dans la région de Souk-Ahras (Nord-est de l’Algérie), une étude préliminaire sur la biodiversité des Culicidae a été menée de juillet 2001 à septembre 2002 par des prélèvements réguliers. L’étude systématique des Culicidae récoltés  dans les différents gîtes prospectés à Souk-Ahras a révélé la présence de 14 espèces appartenant aux deux sous-familles représentées en Algérie (Culicinae et Anophelinae) et à trois genres : Culex, Culiseta et Anopheles avec huit, trois et trois espèces respectivement. L’étude bioécologique indique que la population inventoriée est diversifiée et équilibrée (H’ = 2,60 bit, E = 70 %). Les espèces les plus abondantes sont respectivement Culex theileri avec une fréquence de39,01 %  suivie de l’espèce Culex pipiens avec20,74 %.
description: The Culicidae are blood-sucking insects belonging to Diptera order and Nematocera suborder. They occupy the first place, either as vectors of pathogens of some of its representatives, or by other nuisance. In order to better understand these mosquitos in the region of Souk-Ahras (Northeast of Algeria with subhumid climate), a preliminary study of Culicidae inventory and biodiversity was conducted by regular collecting from July 2001 to September 2002.  The systematic study of Culicidae harvested from different prospected biotopes, revealed the presence of 14 species belonging to two subfamilies: (Culicinae and Anophelinae) and 3 genera (Culex, Culiseta and Anopheles) with (nine, three and three species respectively). The statistical study indicates that the Culicidae population is diversified and moderately balanced (H’ = 2, 60 bit, E = 70 %). The most abundant species are Culex theileri with a frequency of 39.01 % followed by Culex pipiens with 20.74 %.
Investigating the role of the granulocyte-colony stimulating factor in tumour development
Creators: name: Matos, Israel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Immunotherapy has improved patient survival in a subset of human malignancies. However, many patients do not respond to current therapies highlighting the need to better understand the interactions between tumours and the immune system. Phagocytes, such as dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages, and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), are critical in orchestrating or antagonizing innate and adaptive immune responses against tumours. In turn, phagocyte activity and development are dysregulated by tumour-derived factors. We previously identified granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) as a potent tumour-derived cytokine that alters phagocyte development and function. Using Cytometry by Time-of-Flight (CyTOF), we found that growth of G-CSF-expressing tumours led to a systemic accumulation of a complex mixture of myeloid cells and their progenitors, and perturbations in a wide variety of signalling pathways throughout the immune system. G-CSF significantly blocked the development of CD103⁺ classic dendritic cells (cDC1s), which are associated with improved cancer treatment outcomes and strong CD8⁺ cytotoxic T cell activity. Correspondingly, loss of tumour secreted-G-CSF improved adoptive T cell therapy of breast cancer tumours. In addition, treatment of colon cancer-bearing mice with neutralizing anti-G-CSF antibodies reduced MDSC accumulation, normalized colonic immune cell composition, and diminished tumour burden. Further, better patient survival was found to correlate with low G-CSF and neut/MDSC gene expression through analysis of patient CRC gene expression data. Altogether, our data suggest that G-CSF can induce myeloid lineage perturbations and immunosuppression and that modulating G-CSF bioactivity could improve immunotherapy efficacy in cancers associated with over-expression of G-CSF. Finally, we provide evidence that neutralization of human G-CSF delays tumour growth in humanized mouse models systems.

description: Vaginal microbiota (VM) play roles in the risk of persistent HPV infection and progression of cervical intraepithelial lesion (CIN). However, it remained to be explored on the VM dynamic changes in response to the changed status of HPV infection. This study enrolled 73 HPV-positive women who received therapies for high-grade CIN. Then we analyzed VM and vaginal metabolome before therapies (baseline) as well as 6 (6M) and 12 months (12M) after therapies. Lactobacillus-dominated (LD) VM community-state type (CST) represented significantly elevated percentage after therapy. And the proportion of Lactobacillus crispatus-dominated (LCD) CST increased most obviously. Further analysis indicated that microbial samples with baseline LCD CST had the lowest rate of CST shifts at 12M follow-up. And vaginal metabolome had notable cooperativity with VM. Among 25 co-abundance metabolite groups, group 11 (M11) associated significantly with LCD, including 3-indole-acetate and 5-Hydroxy-DL-tryptophan. Conversely, NLD CST had notable association with group 14 (M14) which contained 43 metabolites such as Ginkgoic acid. Our findings would extend insights into the VM dynamic changes in response to HPV infection.
title: Social constructs, behaviour change, and the uptake of community-based WASH interventions: Metrics and analytical approaches for measuring collective efficacy
Creators: name: Delea, MG
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 2020

description: It has become commonplace in international development to intervene upon communities with interventions that require collective action without first gauging the communities’ perceptions regarding their ability and autonomy to engender and maintain change. Programmes and research studies employing community-based interventions often overlook important interpersonal behavioural factors that may well affect uptake and effectiveness. Social constructs such as collective efficacy, social capital, social cohesion, and social norms are important interpersonal behavioural factors and predictors of collective action, which may be needed to realise downstream health and development impacts. This doctoral thesis examined the conceptualisations of various social constructs and their theoretical underpinnings. Theoretical examinations were used to establish hypotheses regarding the underlying structure of collective efficacy (CE). A factor analytic approach was used to develop four CE measurement scales from data collected in Odisha, India and Amhara, Ethiopia to empirically test these hypotheses. The India CE scale was subsequently used to ascertain whether there were independent associations between CE-factors and the uptake and influence of a community-based water supply and sanitation intervention. Compared to controls, intervention households had higher CE factor scores for village leadership (β=0.16, 95% CI: 0.08, 0.25) and agency (β=0.08, 95% CI: 0.01, 0.15), and lower scores for social disorder, conditional on education. Prevalence of improved WASH behaviours was associated with CE factors: improved water piped on-premise was associated with village leadership (aPR=2.25, 95% CI: 1.12, 4.53); improved on-site toilets with social disorder (aPR=0.90, 95% CI: 0.84, 0.97); enclosed bathing rooms with social response (aPR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.23); and utilisation of improved sanitation facilities by all family members with agency (aPR=1.17, 95% CI: 1.00, 1.37) and village leadership (aPR=3.86, 95% CI: 1.67, 8.97). Agency, social response, and social disorder factors were associated with nutritional outcomes. Implications for enhanced intervention design, targeting, and evaluation are discussed throughout.
Gamma-rays from Nearby Clusters: Constraints on Selected Decaying Dark Matter Models

description: Recently, the Fermi-LAT collaboration reported upper limits on the GeV gamma-ray flux from nearby clusters of galaxies. Motivated by these limits, we study corresponding constraints on gamma-ray emissions from two specific decaying dark matter models, one via grand unification scale suppressed operators and the other via R-parity violating operators. Both can account for the PAMELA and Fermi-LAT excesses of e^\pm. For GUT decaying dark matter, the gamma-rays from the M49 and Fornax clusters, with energy in the range of 1 to 10 GeV, lead to the most stringent constraints to date. As a result, this dark matter is disfavored with conventional model of e^\pm background. In addition, it is likely that some tension exists between the Fermi-LAT e^\pm excess and the gamma ray constraints for any decaying dark matter model, provided conventional model of e^\pm background is adopted. Nevertheless, the GUT decaying dark matter can still solely account for the PAMELA positron fraction excess without violating the gamma-ray constraints. For the gravitino dark matter model with R-parity violation, cluster observations do not give tight constraints. This is because a different e^\pm background has been adopted which leads to relatively light dark matter mass around 200 GeV.

description: The influences of optical fields on the tunneling time in graphene are investigated in real time using the finite-difference time-domain method. The tunneling time of electrons irradiated by an optical field is significantly different from that observed in traditional quantum tunneling. We found that when the barrier width increases, the group delay becomes constant for the reflected wave packet, but increases linearly for the transmitted wave packet. This peculiar tunneling effect can be attributed to current leakage in a time-dependent barrier generated via the optical Stark effect.

description: The reversible Frank model is capable of amplifying the initial small statistical deviations from the idealized racemic composition. This temporary amplification can be interpreted as a chiral excursion in a dynamic phase space. It is well known that if the system is open to matter and energy exchange, a permanently chiral state can be reached asymptotically, while the final state is necessarily racemic if the system is closed. In this work, we combine phase space analysis, stability analysis and numerical simulations to study the initial chiral excursions and determine how they depend on whether the system is open, semi-open or closed.

description: In order to assess the leishmanian risk related to the presence of sand flies in the Northwest of Morocco, a short entomological survey was realized in Bni Oual locality in May 2015. In total,243 specimens of sand flies were collected. They belong to two genus, four Subgenus and five species. Phlebotomus sergenti is the dominant species of our capture with the proportion of 39.92% followed by Phlebotomus longicuspis (23.87%), Sergentomyia minuta (21,81%), Phlebotomus papatasi (14%) and Phlebotomus ariasi with one species identified.  Among these identified species, four of them are considered as vectors of Leishmania that causing cutaneous and viscerals leishmaniasis which shows that the risk of vector-borne leishmaniasis is high in this Moroccan northwest locality.

Au total, 243 spécimens de phlébotomes ont été collectés. Ils appartiennent à deux genres, quatre sous-genres et cinq espèces. Phlebotomus sergenti est l\'espèce dominante de notre capture avec une proportion de 39,92% suivie de Phlebotomus longicuspis (23,87%), Sergentomyia minuta (21,81%), Phlebotomus papatasi (14%) et Phlebotomus ariasi avec une espèce identifiée. Parmi ces espèces identifiées, quatre d\'entre elles sont des vecteurs confirmés de la Leishmania, agent causal de la leishmaniose cutanée et viscérale, ce qui montre que le risque de leishmaniose à transmission vectorielle est élevé dans cette localité du nord-ouest marocain.
The transcendental possibilities of technology in young adult literature : posthumanity and divinity in Ready player one and Feed, sacred texts of the transhumanist tradition
Creators: name: Pimentel, Agustin (Charly)
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Through synthesizing the theories of Elaine Graham, Nick Bostrom, Robert Geraci, Hava-Tirosh Samuelson and others, this thesis uses a religious transhumanist lens to examine two YA novels—Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One and M.T. Anderson’s Feed—texts ripe with secular and scientific metaphors illustrating religious truths. This literary analysis asks questions such as whether the posthuman is akin to God, and to what extent technologies like brain-computer-interface systems and virtual reality are new manifestations for transcendence or new vehicles to the heavens. This study contributes to a larger discussion between two seemingly opposing epistemologies—religion and techno-science—by locating a bridge in transhumanist narratives like Cline and Anderson’s. Ultimately, this analysis seeks to uncover whether Ready Player One and Feed might be considered sacred texts of the transhumanist tradition, socializing young people the way YA literature has done for decades—to wonder, awe, and imagine life beyond our own.

description: The work consists in the development of a NPP design in the Republic of Tatarstan with a VVER-500 reactor facility. The VVER-500 reactor unit differs from the VVER-1000 prototype by reducing the number of main circulation loops from 4 to 2. Due to reduction of the number of fuel assemblies from 163 to 109 the diameter of the nuclear plant is reduced. In contrast to the fuel pool, the NPP with the VVER-1000 reactor unit has a single-compartment deconditioning pool. The special task consists in design of fuel pool of VVER-500 power unit. As a result of the special task the main equipment is selected, the thermal scheme of the spent fuel assemblies' deconditioning pool is developed. The NPP design complies with modern designs with VVER, the NPP is suitable for construction.

description: We use a web-and-mail survey on attitudes towards and use of marijuana to demonstrate how a web-recruited cohort could be integrated into an address-based sample using a calibration-weighting procedure in the software language SUDAAN 11®.  A Holm-Bonferroni procedure is employed to test whether a pivotal assumption underlying the integration is supported by the data for individual survey items as well as for the survey as a whole.  Delete-a-group jackknife weights for the integrated sample are then developed.

description: Heterotic orbifold compactifications yield a myriad of models that reproduce many properties of the supersymmetric extension of the standard model and provide potential solutions to persisting problems of high energy physics, such as the origin of the neutrino masses and the strong CP problem. However, the details of the phenomenology in these scenarios rely on the assumption of a stable vacuum, characterized by moduli fields. In this note, we drop this assumption and address the problem of moduli stabilization in realistic orbifold models. We study their qualities and their 4D effective action, and discuss how nonperturbative effects indeed lift all bulk moduli directions. The resulting vacua, although still unstable, are typically de Sitter and there are generically some quasi-flat directions which can help to deal with cosmological challenges, such as inflation.

Self-consistent kinetic simulations of lower hybrid drift instability resulting in electron current driven by fusion products in tokamak plasmas

description: We present particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of minority energetic protons in deuterium plasmas, which demonstrate a collective instability responsible for emission near the lower hybrid frequency and its harmonics. The simulations capture the lower hybrid drift instability in a regime relevant to tokamak fusion plasmas, and show further that the excited electromagnetic fields collectively and collisionlessly couple free energy from the protons to directed electron motion. This results in an asymmetric tail antiparallel to the magnetic field. We focus on obliquely propagating modes under conditions approximating the outer mid-plane edge in a large tokamak, through which there pass confined centrally born fusion products on banana orbits that have large radial excursions. A fully self-consistent electromagnetic relativistic PIC code representing all vector field quantities and particle velocities in three dimensions as functions of a single spatial dimension is used to model this situation, by evolving the initial antiparallel travelling ring-beam distribution of 3MeV protons in a background 10keV Maxwellian deuterium plasma with realistic ion-electron mass ratio. The simulations thus demonstrate a key building block of alpha channelling scenarios for burning fusion plasmas in tokamaks.

Supersolid Polar Molecules beyond Pairwise Interactions

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We explore the phase diagram of ultracold bosonic polar molecules confined to a planar optical lattice of triangular geometry. External static electric and microwave fields can be employed to tune the effective interactions between the polar molecules into a regime of extended two- and three-body repulsions of comparable strength, leading to a rich quantum phase diagram. In addition to various solid phases, an extended supersolid phase is found to persist deep into the three-body dominated regime. While three-body interactions break particle-hole symmetry explicitly, a characteristic supersolid-supersolid quantum phase transition is observed, which indicates the restoration of particle-hole symmetry at half-filling. We revisit the spatial structure of the supersolid at this filling, regarding the existence of a further supersolid phase with three inequivalent sublattices, and provide evidence that this state is excluded also at finite temperatures.

title: Children's work and parental investment in education in north-western Tanzania
Creators: name: Hedges, Sophie
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 2020

description: Changes associated with modernisation, including livelihood change, urbanisation, and the introduction of formal education, reduce children’s ability to contribute to their households, and produce a trade-off between work and learning. Increasingly high levels of investment in education are thought to raise the costs of children, resulting in a ‘quantity-quality trade-off’ which incentivises reduced fertility. Relatively few studies have examined children’s time allocation in contemporary transitioning populations, where education is available and valued, but where subsistence livelihoods still create demand for children’s work. This study collected time allocation data from 1,278 children living in two communities in a rapidly modernising setting in Mwanza region, Tanzania. Focus group discussions were also conducted to investigate the perceived costs and benefits of education for parents and adolescents. The findings from this research highlight the importance of considering children’s work in providing a more nuanced understanding of variation in education. Lower-thananticipated trade-offs between work and school suggest the opportunity costs of school in this context may be relatively low, potentially contributing to the stalled fertility decline. Households may balance work and schooling demands through substitution between co-resident children, and through fostering networks, with implications for classic models of fertility decline which focus mainly on parental investment. Girls’ household work involves a sacrifice of leisure time and does not appear to diminish significantly with modernisation, suggesting the need to challenge gender stereotypes, and reduce the domestic work burden in transitioning contexts. Finally, education is highly valued, but the barriers to academic achievement mean that few experience the desired benefits, pointing to the importance of improving employment prospects together with providing good-quality, locally relevant schooling.

description: Les rapports entre banquiers et politique en Belgique aux xixe et xxe siècles se singularisent par la précocité du développement du système bancaire et le problème de survie d’un petit État-nation. Jusqu’à la fin du xixe siècle, les mandats politiques sont un facteur important du pouvoir économique du banquier. La première guerre mondiale débouche sur le rôle dominant de banquiers professionnels dépolitisés dans le gouvernement du pays. Depuis la fin de la deuxième guerre mondiale, les banquiers s’effacent de la scène politique.
description: The relationship between bankers and politics in Belgium during the 19th and 20th centuries stands out by an early development of the banking system and the problem of survival of a small nation state. Until the end of the 19th century, political mandates are a determining factor of a banker’s economic power. After World War I, professionalised and depoliticised bankers play a dominant part in the country’s government. Since the end of World War II, bankers retire from the political scene.

description: The paper explores the basis of the responsibilities we owe to refugees. That we have such responsibilities is a very widely shared intuition: the need of those fleeing from persecution seems to call out for a response on our part. But what exactly are our obligations to such people? Who are they owed to and why do we have them? The paper argues in favour of a human rights approach to refugee protection that includes the requirement of the implementation of a burden sharing scheme.
Hiding Sensitive Topics by Design? An Experiment on the Reduction of Social Desirability Bias in Factorial Surveys
Creators: name: Walzenbach, Sandra
Publisher: name: European Survey Research Association
Year: 2019
Subjects: factorial survey, vignette study, sensitive topics, social desirability bias, justice norms

description: Factorial survey designs have gained increasing popularity within the social sciences. Compared to single-item questions, the method allows the researcher to model more realistic, multidimensional decision scenarios. Furthermore, it has been argued that assessing sensitive dimensions in factorial surveys can help to overcome social desirability bias.
One rarely used implementation mode is the between subject design, in which the sensitive dimension varies only between respondents. This method is assumed to attract less attention than a design based on the usual within subject implementation, where respondents see variations on the sensitive dimension among their vignettes. In order to empirically evaluate the between design and its potential to reduce social desirability bias, we conducted an experiment within a general population online survey. Using a split-half design, the sensitive dimension in the vignette texts was either varied within or between subjects. More precisely, the factorial survey module under study assessed respondents’ judgements on just fees for early childcare. Among other dimensions, the vignette texts included the child’s religious denomination (Christian, Muslim, none) as one possible attribute on which discrimination can be based. The split-half approach allows us to compare the widely used within subject design to the alternative between approach. Furthermore, data on respondent characteristics is used to obtain insights about differential design effects for different education groups (differential social desirability bias) and respondents from different religious backgrounds (ingroup favouritism). While results concerning a differential social desirability bias were inconclusive, we found evidence for ingroup favouritism from respondents without a religious denomination in the between condition. In general, our findings suggest that the between subject design is a suitable method for reducing social desirability bias in factorial surveys.

description: At large N_c, cold nuclear matter is expected to form a crystal and thus spontaneously break translational symmetry. The description of chiral symmetry breaking and translational symmetry breaking can become intertwined. Here, the focus is on aspects of chiral symmetry breaking and its possible restoration that are by construction independent of the nature of translational symmetry breaking---namely spatial averages of chiral order parameters. A system will be considered to be chirally restored provided all spatially-averaged chiral order parameters are zero. A critical question is whether chiral restoration in this sense is possible for phases in which chiral order parameters are locally non-zero but whose spatial averages all vanish. We show that this is not possible unless all chirally-invariant observables are spatially uniform. This result is first derived for Skyrme-type models, which are based on a nonlinear sigma model and by construction break chiral symmetry on a point-by-point basis. A no-go theorem for chiral restoration (in the average sense) for all models of this type is obtained by showing that in these models there exist chirally symmetric order parameters which cannot be spatially uniform. Next we show that the no-go theorem applies to large N_c QCD in any phase which has a non-zero but spatially varying chiral condensate. The theorem is demonstrated by showing that in a putative chirally-restored phase, the field configuration can be reduced to that of a nonlinear sigma model.

description: We asked members of the Understanding Society Innovation Panel about their willingness to participate in various data collection tasks on their mobile devices. We find that stated willingness varies considerably depending on the type of activity involved: respondents are less willing to participate in tasks that involve downloading and installing an app, or where data are collected passively. Stated willingness also varies between smartphones and tablets, and between types of respondents: respondents who report higher concerns about the security of data collected with mobile technologies and those who use their devices less intensively are less willing to participate in mobile data collection tasks.
