description: Education is crucially important for later outcomes but has received limited attention in comparative research on welfare states. In light of this, we present an exploratory analysis of education systems across fourteen EU countries and the US. This builds on existing work on educational institutions, educational outcomes and welfare regimes. We focus on institutional features associated with inequality of educational opportunity, including academic selection, tracking and public/private provision; on educational outcomes; and on education expenditure. Our quantitative analysis identifies four clusters of countries: the Nordic, Continental, Mediterranean and English-speaking, which bear similarities to those identified in the welfare states literature. Each ‘education regime’ is associated with particular institutional features, educational outcomes and levels of public expenditure. Our analysis suggests that further comparative research on education, viewed as a key component of the welfare state, is warranted.

description: This study defined the population structure and phylogenetic relationship among the commonest breeds of rabbit (New Zealand White, Californian White, New Zealand Red and Chinchilla rabbit breeds which are locally adapted) in Nigeria. The findings resulted in the conclusion, that, in spite of the high level of genetic variation among the rabbit breeds, the breeding strategies adopted could have led to genetic admixture among the breeds as a result of relatively high gene-flow among the breeds. Hence the need for a closer, indepth sensitization of breeding strategies adopted by local farmers and breeders alike.

Modeling drug efficacy in the tumour microenvironment with Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome-wide screens in hypoxic conditions
Creators: name: Tran, Grant
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Hypoxia, the state of reduced oxygen, is a microenvironment found in many solid tumours and is correlated with an increased risk in patient mortality. This is due to an increase in resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy as well as a decrease in drug efficacy. The mechanisms and cellular factors (gene products) associated with this reduced chemotherapeutic efficacy in hypoxia remains unclear. This research looks to identify cellular processes and pathways that cancerous cells are able to exploit in order to survive and thrive in this microenvironment. The eukaryotic model baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae combined with a genome-wide approach was used to screen the yeast knockout collection for specific genotypes that are sensitive to the hypoxic environment alone, and in combination with commonly used chemotherapeutics. Pathways and processes identified in these screens include transcriptional regulation, cytoskeleton maintenance, ribosomal biogenesis, macromolecular complex assembly and the heat shock response. The combination of heat and hypoxia was found to result in a synergistic effect that drastically affected cell fitness. DNA-damaging chemotherapeutics screened in hypoxic conditions showed reduced efficacy. Genotypes most sensitive to drugs in the hypoxic environment fall into Gene Ontology (GO) terms categorized in the response to the specific mechanism of the drug. This includes DNA repair processes such as homologous repair, post-replicative repair and mismatch repair. The mechanistic specificity uncovered in these screens suggests that the hypoxic environment exacerbates drug-specific stresses, and the identified genotypes highlight gene products and pathways critical for these responses. Cell survival and success in this microenvironment therefore requires adaptations to these exacerbated stresses, a phenomenon successfully accomplished by resistant tumour cells. This research contributes to our understanding of cellular biology under this cancer microenvironment, and provides data to highlight the challenges in using chemotherapeutics to treat tumours.
Predictive PAC learnability: a paradigm for learning from exchangeable input data

description: Exchangeable random variables form an important and well-studied generalization of i.i.d. variables, however simple examples show that no nontrivial concept or function classes are PAC learnable under general exchangeable data inputs $X_1,X_2,\ldots$. Inspired by the work of Berti and Rigo on a Glivenko--Cantelli theorem for exchangeable inputs, we propose a new paradigm, adequate for learning from exchangeable data: predictive PAC learnability. A learning rule $\mathcal L$ for a function class $\mathscr F$ is predictive PAC if for every $\e,δ>0$ and each function $f\in {\mathscr F}$, whenever $\absσ\geq s(δ,\e)$, we have with confidence $1-δ$ that the expected difference between $f(X_{n+1})$ and the image of $f\vertσ$ under $\mathcal L$ does not exceed $\e$ conditionally on $X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n$. Thus, instead of learning the function $f$ as such, we are learning to a given accuracy $\e$ the predictive behaviour of $f$ at the future points $X_i(ω)$, $i>n$ of the sample path. Using de Finetti's theorem, we show that if a universally separable function class $\mathscr F$ is distribution-free PAC learnable under i.i.d. inputs, then it is distribution-free predictive PAC learnable under exchangeable inputs, with a slightly worse sample complexity.

description: This study explores how engineering academic teachers perceive their practical knowledge on learning and feedback. Academic teachers and education directors of different disciplines in an engineering university were interviewed. Responses were analysed using the matrix method and cross-case analysis. Five different profiles emerged that provided insight into educators’ practical knowledge on learning and feedback and the associated relations. Feedback is not only a necessary tool to foster learning but is also intrinsically interlinked to learning. Learning and feedback were observed to be dynamic during the study programme. Findings suggest that learning theories can be useful to label, describe, and interpret practical knowledge on learning and feedback. The study has practical implications for those supporting academic teachers’ professional development in higher engineering education (HEE) with respect to providing feedback.
Peri-Implant Disease Education and Diagnosis in the Pre-Doctoral Curriculum

description: The success and widespread use of dental implants in clinical practice along with the concomitant increase in peri-implant disease has precipitated the need to update dental implant education in the USA. This requires improvements in didactics and curriculums in dental schools to prepare dental students for clinical situations pertaining to peri-implant diseases. The objective of this study is to assess how Periodontics Pre-Doctoral Programs in the USA educate dental students to diagnose and classify peri-implant diseases and to determine if a current standard of teaching exists. Surveys were distributed to pre-doctoral program directors across 57 dental schools in the USA via a secure online survey system . The survey consisted of 19 questions pertaining to curriculum structure involving the teaching and diagnosis of peri-implant diseases. A total of 25 program directors (44%) responded and data was analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results indicate that there is no standard curriculum to teach and diagnose peri-implant diseases to dental students among respondents. Without standardized content, heterogeneity exists among dental schools and creates a divergence in dental education. In addition, patients may be more at risk of disease development without standardization and communication between practitioners may be confusing.

description: The operational semantics of interactive systems is usually described by labeled transition systems. Abstract semantics (that is defined in terms of bisimilarity) is characterized by the final morphism in some category of coalgebras. Since the behaviour of interactive systems is for many reasons infinite, symbolic semantics were introduced as a mean to define smaller, possibly finite, transition systems, by employing symbolic actions and avoiding some sources of infiniteness. Unfortunately, symbolic bisimilarity has a different shape with respect to ordinary bisimilarity, and thus the standard coalgebraic characterization does not work. In this paper, we introduce its coalgebraic models. We will use as motivating examples two asynchronous formalisms: open Petri nets and asynchronous pi-calculus. Indeed, as we have shown in a previous paper, asynchronous bisimilarity can be seen as an instance of symbolic bisimilarity.

description: We describe a technique for fabricating micro- and nano-structures incorporating fluorescent defects in diamond with a positional accuracy in the hundreds of nanometers. Using confocal fluorescence microscopy and focused ion beam (FIB) etching we first locate a suitable defect with respect to registration marks on the diamond surface and then etch a structure using these coordinates. We demonstrate the technique here by etching an 8 micron diameter hemisphere positioned such that a single negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy defect lies at its origin. This type of structure increases the photon collection efficiency by removing refraction and aberration losses at the diamond-air interface. We make a direct comparison of the fluorescence photon count rate before and after fabrication and observe an 8-fold increase due to the presence of the hemisphere.

description: A phenomenology of isotropic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence subject to both rotation and applied magnetic field is presented. It is assumed that the triple correlations decay-time is the shortest between the eddy turn-over time and the ones associated to the rotating frequency and Alfvén wave period. For $Pm=1$ it leads to four kinds of piecewise spectra, depending on the four parameters, injection rate of energy, magnetic diffusivity, rotation rate and applied field. With a shell model of MHD turbulence (including rotation and applied magnetic field), spectra for $Pm \le 1$ are presented, together with the ratio between magnetic and viscous dissipation.

description: In this work we study interacting spinless fermions on a two-chain ladder with inter-chain pair tunneling while single-particle tunneling is suppressed at low energy. The model embodies a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry associated with the fermion parity on each chain. We find that when the system is driven to the strong-coupling phase by the pair tunneling, Majorana excitations appear on the boundary. Such Majorana edge states correspond to two-fold degeneracy of ground states distinguished by different fermion parity on each chain, thus representing a generalization of one-dimensional topological superconductors. We also characterize the stability of the ground state degeneracy against local perturbations. Lattice fermion models realizing such effective field theory are discussed.

description: We present a comprehensive study of primordial fluctuations generated from G-inflation, in which the inflaton Lagrangian is of the form $K(ϕ, X)-G(ϕ, X)\Boxϕ$ with $X=-(\partialϕ)^2/2$. The Lagrangian still gives rise to second-order gravitational and scalar field equations, and thus offers a more generic class of single-field inflation than ever studied, with a richer phenomenology. We compute the power spectrum and the bispectrum, and clarify how the non-Gaussian amplitude depends upon parameters such as the sound speed. In so doing we try to keep as great generality as possible, allowing for non slow-roll and deviation from the exact scale-invariance.

Spectroelectrochemical characterization of self-assembled monolayers on a single crystal Au bead electrode : the influence of surface crystallography
Creators: name: Yu, Zhinan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are important structures commonly employed to functionalize metal surfaces. To optimize a metal-SAM construct, it is important to characterize the influence of the surface crystallography. In this thesis, a single crystal Au bead electrode was employed to investigate different types of SAMs, enabling studies on a variety of surfaces under identical conditions and avoiding laborious experimental replicates on a large number of crystal orientations. The application of a single crystal Au bead electrode was demonstrated by investigating the reductive desorption process for two types of SAM: the alkanethiolate SAM and the α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) peptide thiolate SAM. Using in situ fluorescence imaging, the influence of surface crystallography on reductive desorption was observed, reflected as a correlation between the density of broken bonds of a surface and the reductive desorption potential of a SAM deposited on the surface. Besides the surface crystallography, intermolecular interactions also had a significant impact on determining the desorption potential. Aib peptide thiolate SAMs on a Au(111) facet were further investigated. It was found that the low packing density Aib peptide thiolate SAMs exhibited a potential-modulated fluorescence response which was believed to be due to the orientational or structural change of the peptide molecules in response to the applied potential. The potential-driven reorientation effect of the DNA SAMs has been intensively explored due to its application in biosensing. Characterization of the DNA SAMs with in situ fluorescence methods suggested that surface crystallography exerts an influence not only on the formation of the DNA SAMs but also on the efficiency of the potential-driven response. Moreover, a spectroelectrochemical technique that couples electrochemistry, fluorescence microscopy and harmonic analysis was developed to explore the non-linearity of the fluorescence response to an applied AC potential. This technique could be potentially applied to detect changes in DNA hybridization state. The experimental results demonstrate the convenience and wide applicability of using a single crystal Au bead electrode to investigate SAMs. On the other hand, applying existing and developing new spectroelectrochemical techniques give insights into creating SAMs with desirable properties.

Our findings reveal the dominance of Coulomb repulsion in isospin effects on E$_{bal}$ as well as its mass dependence throughout the range of the colliding geometry. Our results also indicate that the effect of symmetry energy on the energy of vanishing flow is uniform throughout the mass range and throughout the colliding geometry.

Visions : the extraordinary life of Margery Kempe
Creators: name: Goddard-Rebstein, Rachael Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: My thesis project is an adaptation of The Book of Margery Kempe into the form of a play. Considered to be the first autobiography in English, The Book of Margery Kempe tells the story of Margery Kempe, a fourteenth century woman who experienced visions of God, Jesus and the Devil and who became famous in England as a religious mystic. Her visions inspired her to travel alone throughout England, Europe and the Middle East and meet with some of the most powerful religious figures of her time. She inspired controversy through weeping copiously during religious ceremonies and speaking publicly of her visions and was put on trial at York, Cawood and Leicester for heresy. Margery Kempe recorded her experiences in the form of a book with the aid of a priest, as she was illiterate. Her book is one of the few existing examples of medieval women’s writing, and provides a unique insight into the treatment of individuals who experienced visions during the medieval era. My play examines how the tradition of female mystical piety influenced Margery Kempe’s interpretation of her visions, and how her experience relates to that of individuals today who are diagnosed with conditions such as schizophrenia, temporal lobe epilepsy, postnatal psychosis and postnatal depression. In considering the latter, through the support of my supervisory committee member Dr. Todd Handy, I have read scholarly work from the fields of neuroscience and psychology. My play does not seek to diagnose Margery Kempe from the perspective of neuroscience and psychology, but rather to imagine how her experience of having visions might relate to that of individuals who are diagnosed with psychiatric and neurological conditions that are associated with hallucinations today. My play juxtaposes modern psychological perspectives on the phenomenon of hallucinations with medieval Christian beliefs regarding visions to demonstrate how cultural attitudes affect the treatment and perception of symptoms associated with madness, and how Margery Kempe coped with experiencing visions that set her apart from the rest of her community.

description: The article focuses on the dialectical distinctions introduced and further illuminated in Michael Silverstein’s seminal work “Language structure and linguistic ideology”. Drawing on the works of Franz Boas and Benjamin Lee Whorf, he develops the concept of linguistic ideology which involves inevitable rationalizations (distortions) of language structure and use. This approach facilitated the explanation of linguistic change as a resolution of the dialectical tension between language structure and ideological involvement in the pragmatic system (indexical function₂).

description: The concept of "Biosphere", introduced into scientific circulation in 1803 by Jean Baptiste Lamarck (17441829), to unambiguously designate the kingdom of the animal world, today is 217 years old. Over the years from 1803 to 1945, the concept expands its content two times. The first time, in 1875, when the geologist Edward Suess (1831-1914) introduced into it, next to the kingdom of the "animal world", the kingdom of "plant organic matter". The second time, in the thirties of the twentieth century. Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky, after studying the evolving geobiochemical diversity on Earth, offers society a planetary theory of the evolution of the "Biosphere" or "living matter". Vernadsky's planetary theory "Biosphere" is still a "thing in itself" today, although the social need for its transformation into a "thing for itself" is growing rapidly. Humanity" in the process of its "unjustified" economic activity, in the middle of the 20th century, violated the biogeochemical proportions of the "Biosphere". The "Biosphere" changed the conditions of life on Earth, and the new conditions of life turned out to be harmful for the "Man". For more than 50 years "Humanity" has been searching for a solution to the current situation, as evidenced by the documents of the UN conferences (Stockholm 1972, Rio de Janeiro 1992 and 2012). A global problem requires a global worldview theory for its solution. And such a theory, according to the decision of one of the next UN conferences, will be the planetary theory of Vernadsky "Biosphere". The planetary theory, after the decision adopted by the UN conference, will raise its status to worldview. On the pages of the article, the evolution of the concept and understanding of the "Biosphere" is shown fragmentarily over the course of 217 years; there is a logistic forecast for the development of the theory of "Biosphere" and the development of its understanding until 2120.

description: The presence and progression of neuromuscular pathology, including spasticity, Duchenne's muscular dystrophy and hyperthyroidism, has been correlated with changes in the intrinsic mechanical properties of skeletal muscle tissue. Tools for noninvasively measuring these properties, such as Magnetic Resonance Elastography, could benefit basic research into understanding neuromuscular pathologies, as well as translational research to develop therapies, by providing a means of assessing and tracking their efficacy. Magnetic Resonance based Elastography, has shown promising results for the detection and monitoring of many diseases affecting isotropic soft tissues, thanks to its ability to offer deep tissue penetration approaching sub-millimeter resolution. Research is still at the early stage for anisotropic tissues where materials properties are direction-dependent, such as striated (skeletal and cardiac) muscle. In these cases, MRE evaluations become more complex and there is the need of extracting more information. This dissertation details the research of Magnetic Resonance Elastography applied specifically to anisotropic tissues such as skeletal muscle with the goal of using directional variations in the mechanical properties of anisotropic soft tissues to detect alterations caused by pathological conditions. Innovative approaches to design anisotropic and viscoelastic composite fibrous phantoms mimicking skeletal muscle tissue through 3D printing are proposed. These can be used as a means of validation of future developments in the MRE technique, but also of other techniques based on the propagation of mechanical waves. A novel analytical theory for shear wave propagation in anisotropic fibrous tissues is also presented in the current work, stemming from the fusion of transformation acoustics and relativistic mechanics areas, with the idea to simplify the mathematical description making the problem isotropic via an appropriate transformation of the coordinate system. Analytical solutions can potentially provide higher solution speed and ease in parametric and optimization studies, compared to computationally heavy numerical methods. A way of excite fast and slow shear waves in anisotropic sample in order to fully characterize their properties is also implemented with an interchangeable MRE set-up for a low field table-top MRI system allowing for both axial and torsional actuations. Its application to anisotropic samples, such as skeletal muscle, enables the measurement of direction-dependent properties.

description: When a slightly defective rutile TiO$_2$(110) surface is exposed to O$_2$ at elevated temperatures, the molecule dissociates at defects, filling O vacancies (\ov) and creating O adatoms (\oad) on {\tifc} rows. The adsorption of molecular O$_2$ at low temperatures has remained controversial. Low-Temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (LT-STM) of O$_2$, dosed on TiO$_2$(110) at a sample temperature of $\approx$ 100 K and imaged at 17 K, shows a molecular precursor at \ov as a faint change in contrast. The adsorbed O$_2$ easily dissociates during the STM measurements, and formation of \oad's at both sides of the original \ov is observed.

description: We demonstrate a signal processing concept for imaging the sky at millisecond rates with radio interferometers. The "Pocket Correlator" (PoCo) correlates the signals from multiple elements of a radio interferometer fast enough to image brief, dispersed pulses. By the nature of interferometry, a millisecond correlator functions like a large, single-dish telescope, but with improved survey speed, spatial localization, calibration, and interference rejection. To test the concept, we installed PoCo at the Allen Telescope Array (ATA) to search for dispersed pulses from the Crab pulsar, B0329+54, and M31 using total-power, visibility-based, and image-plane techniques. In 1.7 hours of observing, PoCo detected 191 giant pulses from the Crab pulsar brighter than a typical 5 sigma sensitivity limit of 60 Jy over pulse widths of 3 milliseconds. Roughly 40% of pulses from pulsar B0329+54 were detected by using novel visibility-based techniques. Observations of M31 constrain the rate of pulses brighter than 190 Jy in a three degree region surrounding the galaxy to <4.3/hr. We calculate the computational demand of various visibility-based pulse search algorithms and demonstrate how compute clusters can help meet this demand. Larger implementations of the fast imaging concept will conduct blind searches for millisecond pulses in our Galaxy and beyond, providing a valuable probe of the interstellar/intergalactic media, discovering new kinds of radio transients, and localizing them to constrain models of their origin.

description: Supersymmetric (SUSY) transformation operators corresponding to complex factorization constants are analyzed as operators acting in the Hilbert space of functions square integrable on the positive semiaxis. Obtained results are applied to Hamiltonians possessing spectral singularities which are non-Hermitian SUSY partners of selfadjoint operators. A new regularization procedure for the resolution of the identity operator in terms of continuous biorthonormal set of the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian eigenfunctions is proposed. It is also shown that the continuous spectrum eigenfunction has zero binorm (in the sense of distributions) at the singular point.

description: Statistics of the free volume available to individual particles have previously been studied for simple and complex fluids, granular matter, amorphous solids, and structural glasses. Minkowski tensors provide a set of shape measures that are based on strong mathematical theorems and easily computed for polygonal and polyhedral bodies such as free volume cells (Voronoi cells). They characterize the local structure beyond the two-point correlation function and are suitable to define indices $0\leq β_ν^{a,b}\leq 1$ of local anisotropy. Here, we analyze the statistics of Minkowski tensors for configurations of simple liquid models, including the ideal gas (Poisson point process), the hard disks and hard spheres ensemble, and the Lennard-Jones fluid. We show that Minkowski tensors provide a robust characterization of local anisotropy, which ranges from $β_ν^{a,b}\approx 0.3$ for vapor phases to $β_ν^{a,b}\to 1$ for ordered solids. We find that for fluids, local anisotropy decreases monotonously with increasing free volume and randomness of particle positions. Furthermore, the local anisotropy indices $β_ν^{a,b}$ are sensitive to structural transitions in these simple fluids, as has been previously shown in granular systems for the transition from loose to jammed bead packs.
Unexpected zero bias conductance peak on the topological semimetal Sb(111) with a single broken layer
Creators: name: Yam, Yau Chuen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: The signature of the long-sought Majorana fermion from a heterostructure of a superconductor and a topological material is the zero bias conductance peak (ZBCP). Topological semimetal Antimony is a good material in making such heterostructure. Since it is of a bilayer crystal structure, it is expected to be cleaved between bilayers. However, we found that on its cleaved surface there can be steps with step heights corresponding to the intrabilayer distance, indicating that there is a broken layer underneath. The dI/dV spectrum observed using scanning tunneling microscope on these abnormal steps are quite different from the usual Sb spectrum and there is a pronounced ZBCP. Using quasiparticle interference imaging, Landau level spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT), we found that the ZBCP is originated from the changed band structure through van Hove singularity. This shows that when we try to probe the signature of Majorana fermion in the heterostructure, we need to make sure the ZBCP is not from this trivial origin due to the imperfectness of the topological material.
