description: We prove a homological stability theorem for moduli spaces of simply-connected manifolds of dimension $2n > 4$, with respect to forming connected sum with $S^n \times S^n$. This is analogous to Harer's stability theorem for the homology of mapping class groups. Combined with previous work of the authors, it gives a calculation of the homology of the moduli spaces of manifolds diffeomorphic to connected sums of $S^n \times S^n$ in a range of degrees.

description: BACKGROUND: Checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) immunotherapies have provided durable clinical responses across a range of solid tumor types for some patients with cancer. Nonetheless, response rates to CPI vary greatly between cancer types. Resolving intratumor transcriptomic changes induced by CPI may improve our understanding of the mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance. METHODS: We assembled a cohort of longitudinal pre-therapy and on-therapy samples from 174 patients treated with CPI across six cancer types by leveraging transcriptomic sequencing data from five studies. RESULTS: Meta-analyses of published RNA markers revealed an on-therapy pattern of immune reinvigoration in patients with breast cancer, which was not discernible pre-therapy, providing biological insight into the impact of CPI on the breast cancer immune microenvironment. We identified 98 breast cancer-specific correlates of CPI response, including 13 genes which are known IO targets, such as toll-like receptors TLR1, TLR4, and TLR8, that could hold potential as combination targets for patients with breast cancer receiving CPI treatment. Furthermore, we demonstrate that a subset of response genes identified in breast cancer are already highly expressed pre-therapy in melanoma, and additionally we establish divergent RNA dynamics between breast cancer and melanoma following CPI treatment, which may suggest distinct immune microenvironments between the two cancer types. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, delineating longitudinal RNA dynamics following CPI therapy sheds light on the mechanisms underlying diverging response trajectories, and identifies putative targets for combination therapy.
The Influences of Study Abroad Experiences

description: Many colleges and universities now realize that it is a good educational practice for their students to learn about the relations between nations, global issues, and intercultural relationships (Tate, 2012). The focus of this research study is to investigate aspects of how international study abroad experiences affect the personal and professional identities of U.S. undergraduate students. A survey was used to capture the perceptions and experiences of study abroad students. Most participants report having a positive experience during their study abroad experiences and an increased cultural awareness and international mindedness. On the contrary, there was a small percentage of participants who reported having no desire to learn the language, a minimal interaction with the new culture, isolation, and interacting and only socializing with peers from their home country.

description: Biological rhythms are widely known in terrestrial and marine systems, where the behaviour or function of organisms may be tuned to environmental variation over periods from minutes to seasons or longer. Although well characterized in coastal environments, phenology remains poorly understood in the deep sea. Here we characterized intra-annual dynamics of feeding activity for the deep-sea octocoral Paragorgia arborea. Hourly changes in polyp activity were quantified using a time-lapse camera deployed for a year on Sur Ridge (1230 m depth; Northeast Pacific). The relationship between feeding and environmental variables, including surface primary production, temperature, acoustic backscatter, current speed and direction, was evaluated. Feeding activity was highly seasonal, with a dormancy period identified between January and early April, reflecting seasonal changes in food availability as suggested by primary production and acoustic backscatter data. Moreover, feeding varied with tides, which likely affected food delivery through cyclic oscillation in current speed and direction. This study provides the first evidence of behavioural rhythms in a coral species at depth greater than 1 km. Information on the feeding biology of this cosmopolitan deep-sea octocoral will contribute to a better understanding of how future environmental change may affect deep-sea coral communities and the ecosystem services they provide.

description: The characterization and manipulation of deposited magnetic clusters or molecules on surfaces is a prerequisite for their future utilization. In recent years techniques like spin-flip inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy using a scanning tunneling microscope proved to be very precise in determining e.g. exchange constants in deposited finite spin chains in the meV range. In this article we tackle the problem numerically by investigating the transition from where a pure spin Hamiltonian is sufficient to the point where the interaction with the surface significantly alters the magnetic properties. To this end we study the static, i.e. equilibrium impurity magnetization of antiferromagnetic chains for varying couplings to a conduction electron band of a metal substrate. We show under which circumstances the screening of a part of the system enables one to deduce molecular parameters of the remainder from level crossings in an applied field.

Here and Nowhere: A Critical Analysis of Geomusicology
Creators: name: Purdy, Britnae A.
Publisher: name: Journal of Mason Graduate Research
Year: 2015

description: Geomusicology, the study of the geography of music, encompasses themes such as patriotism, politics, sense of identity, history, ethnicity, and more, making it a crucial, if often overlooked component of geopolitics. As a relatively new field of research, geomusicology warrants more attention to determine its ability to contribute to geopolitics. However, the major themes of the field are at times contradictory and abstract, calling for a subtle and nuanced understanding of research in the field. This paper provides an overview of some major literature in geomusicology and concludes that most researchers in the field believe that music is both anchored by place and universal at the same time. Using a critical approach to geopolitics, this paper thus debates the strengths and weakness of geomusicology with recommendations on how to further evolve the field to contribute to a fuller understanding of geopolitics as a whole.Â

description: The notion of Shi’ism as a sect characterized by activism and resistance is incomplete. Throughout the course of Shi’i history, there have been a variety of circumstances, which require a muted understanding of activism and resistance. Born out of persecution and pragmatism, the Shi’a have incorporated a variety of doctrines that allow for the expression of resistance in a variety of overt and covert contexts. This “contextual activism” has not only resulted in the survival of the Shi’i sect, but has also provided for the lasting integrity of the Shi’i community.

description: With the growth of urban centers worldwide, the number of vehicles in and around these areas has also increased. Traffic-related data plays an important role in spatial planning, for example, optimizing road networks and in the estimation or simulation of air and noise pollution. This information is important as it reflects the changes taking place around us. Additionally, data collected can be used for a wide array of applications including law enforcement, fleet management, and supporting other analyses at varying scales. In this paper, we present a method for the detection and identification of vehicles from low altitude, high spatial resolution Red Blue Green (RGB) images, utilizing both object spectra and image morphology. Results show an identification performance upwards of 62% with false positives occurring from the use of images with sun glare and vehicles with similar spectra values.Â

description: Bio: Dr Chunxiao Hu is a Lecturer in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Glasgow. His research focuses on developing miniaturised portable microsystem platforms by using advanced technologies such as microfluidics, nanofabrication, surface functionalization for biomedical applications. Current projects include Highly integrated chemical sensors (electrical and optical) for multiple detection of biomarkers for early cancer diagnostics; CMOS based ISFET for fast antimicrobial susceptibility testing; Wearable biosensor for continuous monitoring of stroke; Microfluidic device for neurodegenerative diseases; Microfluidic device for electrophysiological analysis of drug uptake in nematodes. 

Abstract: Precision metabolomics and quantification for cost-effective rapid diagnosis of disease are the key goals in personalized medicine and point-of-care testing. At present, patients are subjected to multiple test procedures requiring large laboratory equipment. Here, we present a versatile single complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor chip forming a platform to address personalized needs through on-chip multimodal optical and electrochemical detection that will reduce the number of tests that patients must take. The chip integrates interleaved sensing subsystems for quadruple-mode colorimetric, chemiluminescent, surface plasmon resonance, and hydrogen ion measurements. These subsystems include a photodiode array and a single photon avalanche diode array and an array of ion sensitive field-effect transistors. The sensor arrays are distributed uniformly over an active area on the chip surface in a scalable and modular design. Bio-functionalization of the physical sensors yields a highly selective simultaneous multiple-assay platform in a disposable format. We have demonstrated its versatile capabilities through various applications such as CVD, prostate cancer diagnosis and bleeding disorders monitoring.

Year: 2016

description: The main focus of educational software these days is the content they want to deliver while little to no care is given to the usability of the software. Interfaces are made colorful and attractive to children only to fail miserably in providing a truly fun and usable experience. The purpose of this paper is to provide the designers with an understanding of the child user of these software, who are substantially different from adults. In addition, it addresses the school environment where these software are mostly used and provide a better understanding of the educational goals and the several ways they can be conveyed and delivered via a computer system. Finally, the paper discusses the different interface paradigms and what they offer for educational software, specifically, the potential of idiomatic interfaces in overcoming many of the limitations that children's minds and bodies possess.

“The Rock of Transfer”: A Synthesis of Ethics in Higher Education through the Lens of the United States Military Academies
Creators: name: Hennessey, Megan Julia
Publisher: name: Journal of Mason Graduate Research
Year: 2016

description: With unconventional modern-day warfare and the pervasiveness of social media comes an unprecedented operational environment of highly publicized ethical dilemmas for young military officers. The United States service academies are in the unique position of educating their undergraduate students in the traditional four-year academic construct as well as in ethical decision-making within strict values- and rules-based cultures. Further complicating this charge is the posturing of students as both scholars and contracted employees of the Department of Defense, liable to the American taxpayer. Using the construct of ethical education at the United States military academies, this paper makes the case for why ethics matter in higher education, and will explore a variety of models by which they may be taught, to include pre-scripting (Gentile, 2010), ethical triangulation (Baker, 2012), and Theme Centered Interaction (Wortel & Bosch, 2011), among others.

description: The objective of this paper is to explore the management of peace education and conflict resolution strategies in the 21st century for students’ multidimensional skills development and literacy acquisition in the right direction. The researchers discuss the concept of skill development and literacy acquisition. They also examine the concept of conflict resolution strategies in consonant with school related conflicts which are capable of obscuring the degree of students’ skill development vis-à-vis literacy acquisition in the right direction. Furthermore, the paper assessed available mechanism for conflict resolution among parties involved in school as multidimensional skill development and literacy acquisition may not thrive in a violent and chaotic school environment. The paper equally evaluates the goals every school administrator ought to adopt in a bid to resolve conflicts meditatively without hurting the parties involved and disrupt the academic programme of the school. Conclusively, suggestions to managing peace education to promote students’ skills development and literacy acquisition n the right direction are proffered. It was however recommended among others that the training and retaining of school administrators and teachers should be intensified to enable acquire the essential skills and knowledge, appropriate techniques and methods to effectively manage peace education and conflict resolution measures in such a way that concepts that are relevant to students’ skill development and literacy acquisition will be reflected and identified.
Picard-Vessiot Extensions of Real Differential Fields

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Algebraic Geometry (math.AG)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: For a linear differential equation defined over a formally real differential field K with real closed field of constants k, Crespo, Hajto and van der Put proved that there exists a unique formally real Picard- Vessiot extension up to K-differential automorphism. However such an equation may have Picard-Vessiot extensions which are not formally real fields. The differential Galois group of a Picard-Vessiot extension for this equation has the structure of a linear algebraic group defined over k and is a k-form of the differential Galois group H of the equation over the differential field K(i), where i denotes a square root of -1 in the algebraic closure of k. These facts lead us to consider two issues: determining the number of K-differential isomorphism classes of Picard-Vessiot extensions and describing the variation of the differential Galois group in the set of k-forms of H. We address these two issues in the cases when H is a special linear, a special orthogonal, or a symplectic linear algebraic group and conclude that there is no general behaviour.

Innovation in the Tropics: An Autoethnography of a Multidisciplinary Field School
Creators: name: Lunsford, John P
Publisher: name: Journal of Mason Graduate Research
Year: 2014

description: In today’s academic environment, institutions often present students with the opportunity to participate in a field school, allowing students to experience an abridged form of fieldwork and providing a hands-on approach to the application of classroom-oriented theory.  While field schools vary in topic and length, many remain firmly bound to a specific discipline.  Breaching the exclusivity of a discipline-specific field school to accommodate a variety of academic perspectives is itself innovative in approach, as is encouraging trans-discipline collaboration and facilitating opportunities for cross-discipline discourse.  In contrast with that tradition, George Mason University’s School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution’s field school in Bali, Indonesia, takes an innovative multi-disciplinary approach to the field school experience.  Additionally, the field school takes a more action-oriented approach to research in which students produce research materials that are immediately usable to the community under study.  This paper presents an auto-ethnographic account of this novel field school approach.

description: Background:Research shows multifaceted / poorly understood causes of the Ethnicity Attainment Gap (EAG) between White & Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) students within the UK. Mclean's (2013) study on EAG found it grows throughout the course due to university factors. This paper investigates the Powell Diversity Rationale Hypothesis — whether ethnic diversity and segregation in The Faculty of Medicine, Health Science and Pharmacy (TFMHSP) courses affect the EAG. Method:Ethical approval gained; a survey was distributed to 1000+ students. In categories concerning belonging, discrimination and ethnic segregation, data analysis revealed significant discrepancies between BAME/White students' responses. Using Kivlighan’s Diversity Index, an objective measure of ethnic diversity determined the most (Medical Physiology and Therapeutics (MPT)) and least (Biology) diverse courses, both were compared using established themes and perceived attainment. Findings:Responses were representative of the ethnicity split of the 2018 cohort (63.46% White and 35.58% BAME). BAME MPT/Biology students had no significant differences in their perceived grades compared to White students and both reported no ethnic representation in university leadership e.g., academic staff. Other areas where BAME student experience was poorer concerned facing discrimination/harassment. A 2021 redistribution of the survey revealed that Covid-19 may influence the EAG, but only short-term changes were observed. Conclusions:Ethnic diversity does not reduce EAG based on perceived attainment. Recommendations for further research to identify/address the reasons of the EAG include employing real grades/focus groups. These aim to improve the university environment & build well-rounded healthcare professionals.

Questioning the Survey: A Look into Art History Survey and its Pedagogical Practices
Creators: name: Yavelberg, Josh
Publisher: name: Journal of Mason Graduate Research
Year: 2014

description: The traditional art history survey course is a staple throughout higher education. This course has been taught in a similar manner for generations. This study questions several art history faculty members regarding their unique practices in an effort to understand the pedagogical implications as we move into the twenty-first century. Through continued dialogue, coupling reflections on personal experience, this heuristic inquiry intends to produce and share through a developing community of practice new pedagogical alternatives to what has become labeled, “Art-in-the-Dark.”

On the interaction between gold and silver metal atoms and DNA/RNA nucleobases -- a comprehensive computational study of ground state properties

description: The interaction between metal atoms and nucleobases has been a topic of high interest due to the wide scientific and technological implications. Combining density functional theory simulations with a literature overview, we achieved an exhaustive study of the ground state electronic properties of DNA/RNA nucleobases interacting with gold and silver atoms at three charge states: neutral, cationic, and anionic. We describe the nature of the stability and electronic properties in each hybrid metallic structure. In addition to the metal interacting with the five isolated nucleobases, we included their respective DNA-WC base pairs and one case with the protonated sugar-phosphate backbone. As a general trend, we discerned that the energetic ordering of isomers follows simple electrostatic rules as expected from previous studies. Also, we found that although the metal localizes almost all of the extra charge in the anionic system, a donation of charge is shared almost equally in the cationic system. Furthermore, the frontier orbitals of the cationic system tend to have more effects from the pairing and inclusion of the backbone than the anionic system. Finally, the electronic gap varies greatly among all of the considered structures and could be further used as a fingerprint when searching DNA-metal hybrid structures.

description: Background: The LGBTQ+ community constitutes a significant proportion of society with unique health needs. However, healthcare services and doctors often inadequately address their needs, with insufficient training proposed as a major contributory factor. This international observational study aimed to investigate the level of training in LGBTQ+ medicine during medical school. Method: Following validation with LGBTQ+ organisations, a survey was created to assess medical students’ knowledge, sources of understanding, and areas for improvement for LGBTQ+ health issues in the curricula. The survey consisted of multiple-choice and Likertscale questions. Following a pilot, the online survey was disseminated at two medical schools in London and Singapore. Findings: 330 respondents completed the survey, with comparable absolute numbers from both universities. At least one-third of respondents were unclear on terminologies such as ‘out-of-the-closet’ and ‘men who have sex with men’. Additionally, respondents lacked knowledge of clinical topics such as conversion therapy. 84.2% of respondents expressed inadequacy in learning about LGBTQ+ medicine at university, with only 27.9% of respondents indicating they learnt general LGBTQ+ issues from medical curricula. Sexual health (90.9%) was well-learnt at medical schools, whilst many other topics such as genderaffirming care were not learnt (56.7%). Conclusions: This study highlights the lack of training surrounding LGBTQ+ medicine that medical schools provide for students, with much information gathered from outside sources. Medical school curricula should be reviewed to better incorporate important issues surrounding LGBTQ+ medicine. This would better equip the next generation of doctors to address the LGBTQ+ community’s health needs.

subject: Organic chemical synthesis

description: Natural products, along with natural product derivatives, are known to be at the root of the development of many pharmaceuticals, oftentimes showing unique bioactivity against interesting targets. Specifically, natural products containing furans show activity against a variety of diseases including fungal infections, and cancers. It is hypothesized that unknown natural products containing furans could show more potent or other biological activities. However, it is challenging to discover and isolate these small molecules from cell supernatant. The work described herein showcases the development of a molecular probe that can covalently attach to furan moieties via a [4 + 2] Diels-Alder cycloaddition, making them easily identifiable on liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (LC-MS). The molecular probe, which undergoes this reaction with a variety of furans, was designed with both a UV-tag and a mass tag to enable easy identification. The probe has been tested with a variety of purified furans, including natural products, methylenomycin furan (MMF) hormones, and MMF derivatives. Moreover, work has begun to test the molecular probe in cell supernatants.

The Value of Mentoring Programs for African American Male College Students
Creators: name: Gibson, Yolanda Barbier
Publisher: name: Journal of Mason Graduate Research
Year: 2014

description: Retention and graduation rates among African American male college students have received considerable coverage in recent years which is evident based on the literature in this paper. African American male students enroll in community colleges at a steady pace, yet graduation and retention rates are the lowest among this group. By creating mentoring programs designed specifically for African American males, academic success, retention, and graduation rates will improve. In this paper, the author will review the literature pertaining to the implications of mentoring programs for minority male college students. The author will begin by defining mentoring programs, exploring major arguments associated with mentoring programs, and address implications that mentoring has on retention for African American male students. In the final part of the paper, the author provides practical recommendations to effectively implement a mentoring program; summarize the arguments and reemphasize the significance of mentoring program for African American male students.

Hopf Algebras of m-permutations, (m+1)-ary trees, and m-parking functions

description: The m-Tamari lattice of F. Bergeron is an analogue of the clasical Tamari order defined on objects counted by Fuss-Catalan numbers, such as m-Dyck paths or (m+1)-ary trees. On another hand, the Tamari order is related to the product in the Loday-Ronco Hopf algebra of planar binary trees. We introduce new combinatorial Hopf algebras based on (m+1)-ary trees, whose structure is described by the m-Tamari lattices. In the same way as planar binary trees can be interpreted as sylvester classes of permutations, we obtain (m+1)-ary trees as sylvester classes of what we call m-permutations. These objects are no longer in bijection with decreasing (m+1)-ary trees, and a finer congruence, called metasylvester, allows us to build Hopf algebras based on these decreasing trees. At the opposite, a coarser congruence, called hyposylvester, leads to Hopf algebras of graded dimensions (m+1)^{n-1}, generalizing noncommutative symmetric functions and quasi-symmetric functions in a natural way. Finally, the algebras of packed words and parking functions also admit such m-analogues, and we present their subalgebras and quotients induced by the various congruences.
