 This contribution to the gamification session gives a sneak peek on the FAIR Cards (Wilbrandt, in prep.) and afterwards instructs the participants to play two adapted online games using research data management (RDM) terms: CodeNames and Taboo.
 The intention behind adapting existing games to RDM training is to help make the topic fun. Incorporating on-topic games in RDM training helps to raise awareness, remember the lessons learned, and to discuss the important aspects with peers. To play CodeNames, the uploaded list CodeNames.txt was used as custom word pack.
 For Taboo, the uploaded list Taboo.txt was used: a word was picked at random (judging by eye) and given to a player via private chat. Duration:
 The session is intended to take 1,5 h. This includes: 10 min introduction and explanation of CodeNames 45 min playing CodeNames at https://codenames.game 5 min questions and discussion 5 min explanation of Taboo 15 min playing Taboo 10 min questions and discussion Target Audience: Data Stewards and other RDM professionals delivering training Anyone interested Image Sources:

Phonological development in twins after non-linear phonological and morphosyntactic intervention
Creators: name: Feehan, Angela M
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This study examined the phonological development of a set of 6-year-old male dizygotic twins with protracted phonological and morphosyntactic development. Each twin was given 16 weeks of therapy, 8 weeks of morphosyntactic treatment and 8 weeks of phonology treatment. These 8-week treatment blocks were ordered oppositely so that one twin received morphosyntactic treatment first while the other received phonology treatment first. The study investigated phonological changes after morphosyntax treatment (cross-domain generalization), after phonological treatment (direct treatment effect), and after the full 16 weeks (overall effects and treatment order effect). Specific changes within the phonological systems of the twins were interpreted from a constraint-based non-linear phonology point of view. Twin 1, who received morphosyntax treatment first, did not show an increase in phonological matches to adult targets after the morphosyntax treatment block. After the phonology treatment block, an increase in percentage match for treated word structures and phonological features was seen. Twin 2, who received phonology treatment first, showed an increase in percentage match for treated structures and features after phonology treatment. After morphosyntax treatment, a continued increase in phonological matches to adult targets was seen. These results imply that it may be important to target phonology directly with children who have both protracted phonological and protracted morphosyntactic development. Results also indicate that both morphosyntax treatment first and phonology treatment first strategies can facilitate phonological development and that phonology treatment first may allow for greater generalization in the phonological domain during morphosyntax treatment.

description: We consider a model of active Brownian particles with velocity-alignment in two spatial dimensions with passive and active fluctuations. Hereby, active fluctuations refers to purely non-equilibrium stochastic forces correlated with the heading of an individual active particle. In the simplest case studied here, they are assumed as independent stochastic forces parallel (speed noise) and perpendicular (angular noise) to the velocity of the particle. On the other hand, passive fluctuations are defined by a noise vector independent of the direction of motion of a particle, and may account for example for thermal fluctuations. We derive a macroscopic description of the active Brownian particle gas with velocity-alignment interaction. Hereby, we start from the individual based description in terms of stochastic differential equations (Langevin equations) and derive equations of motion for the coarse grained kinetic variables (density, velocity and temperature) via a moment expansion of the corresponding probability density function. We focus here in particular on the different impact of active and passive fluctuations on the onset of collective motion and show how active fluctuations in the active Brownian dynamics can change the phase-transition behaviour of the system. In particular, we show that active angular fluctuation lead to an earlier breakdown of collective motion and to emergence of a new bistable regime in the mean-field case.

Role of High MUC2 Production in Colonic Goblet Cell Apoptosis and Wound Healing

description: MUC2 mucin is produced by goblet cells, which forms the protective mucus blanket overlying the intestinal epithelium as the first line of innate host defense. MUC2 forms a physical barrier between the luminal contents and epithelium as a protective shield. Under normal physiological conditions, goblet cells produce MUC2 continuously to replenish the mucus blanket and maintain epithelial barrier function. However, in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and infectious colitis, MUC2 mucin is hyper secreted that leads to a phenomenon commonly referred to as ‘goblet cell depletion’ and eventual injury to the epithelium. It remains unclear however, how MUC2 production affects this phenomenon and whether goblet cells undergo increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and apoptosis in response to high MUC2 biosynthesis and secretion, which could explain how ‘goblet cell depletion’ occurs. In this study, I investigated the role of high MUC2 mucin production in goblet cell-induced ER stress, susceptibility to apoptosis and restitution following injury. Two cells lines were used; a high and low MUC2-producing human goblet cell-like cell lines designated HT29-H and HT29-L, respectively. Goblet cell ER stress and apoptosis were also quantified during early onset of DSS-induced colitis in C57BL/6 and Math1M1GFP mice. Compared to HT29-L, HT29-H cells showed significant increase in ER stress and apoptosis in response to ER stressors and apoptosis-inducing agents. Increased ER stress and apoptosis were dependent on reactive oxygen species (ROS) as inhibition of ROS significantly alleviated basal and tunicamycin- and thapsigargin-induced ER stress and rescued cells from apoptosis. DSS-induced colitis caused early hyper secretion of mucus and severe ER stress and apoptosis of goblet cells at the early onset of colitis. Increased MUC2 production in HT29-H cells inhibited production of growth factors and enzymes (FGF1, FGF2, VEGF-C, MMP-1) and intracellular signalling pathways (MMP-1, MAPK/ERK) critical for wound repair. As a result, HT29-H cells migrated significantly slower than HT29-L cells in epithelial restitution. This study have unravelled that high MUC2 biosynthesis during intestinal inflammatory diseases increases goblet cell susceptibility to ER stress and apoptosis, leading to goblet cell depletion, mucus barrier dysfunction and impaired goblet cell restitution and mucosal repair.
Three Essays in Economic Growth and Development

description: In this thesis, I ask four independent but interrelated questions regarding the sources of differences in economic growth and development across countries. Resource reallocation is a key factor in answering all four questions. My first two questions focus on resource reallocation, but in the context of recessions. First, how does capital misallocation move over business cycles? Secondly, what factors account for capital misallocation and its cyclicality? I provide empirical evidence that capital misallocation is countercyclical (i.e. higher during recessions and lower during booms). As for the factors that account for capital misallocation and its cyclicality, I find that net worth explains approximately seven percent of capital misallocation and around 20 percent of its cyclicality. My third question asks whether increased exposure to foreign competition generates more productivity gains from reallocating inputs in economies with a relatively large proportion of young firms. I find this to be the case. Firm age may matter for productivity gains from reallocating inputs for two reasons: 1) young firms are more likely to fail, and 2) those young firms that survive can possibly grow more quickly than older firms, perhaps because it is easier and cheaper for young firms to reallocate inputs. The fourth question asks: Do firms grow at a slower rate in poorer countries than in richer countries? The answer to this question has already been established by Hsieh and Klenow (2014) in their study of three countries. Using a broader collection of countries, I generalize their results, finding that firms do indeed grow at a slower rate in poorer countries than in richer countries.

Platelet-Neutrophil Interactions and NET Formation in Severe Sepsis

description: Sepsis is a life threatening condition that accounts for a high mortality rate worldwide. Platelets and neutrophils are well recognized to interact in sepsis, however the molecules involved are not clear. Under non-septic conditions neutrophils can roll and adhere to immobilized platelets through a P-selectin/β2-integrin dependent mechanism. In contrast, in vivo imaging using models of sepsis and endotoxemia, indicates that neutrophils adhere to the endothelium first rather than platelets and then the platelets interact with immobilized neutrophils. LPS-activated platelets do not express P-selectin, thus, we hypothesized that platelets use different adhesion molecules to bind immobilized neutrophils in response to LPS. By using a flow chamber assay and LPS to mimic sepsis, we demonstrate that adhesion is mediated by LFA-1 and CD11c and the ligands JAM-A and ICAM-1. However septic plasma stimulation resulted in different adhesive pathways. We observed that the interaction was important for the NET formation presumably by allowing close proximity and transfer of mediators from the platelets to the neutrophil. We also observed that accumulation of platelet-derived mediator could directly induce NETs independent of adhesion.

description: We study a Majorana zero-energy state bound to a hedgehog-like point defect in a topological superconductor described by a Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG)-Dirac type effective Hamiltonian. We first give an explicit wave function of a Majorana state by solving the BdG equation directly, from which an analytical index can be obtained. Next, by calculating the corresponding topological index, we show a precise equivalence between both indices to confirm the index theorem. Finally, we apply this observation to reexamine the role of another topological invariant, i.e., the Chern number associated with the Berry curvature proposed in the study of protected zero modes along the lines of topological classification of insulators and superconductors. We show that the Chern number is equivalent to the topological index, implying that it indeed reflects the number of zero-energy states. Our theoretical model belongs to the BDI class from the viewpoint of symmetry, whereas the spatial dimension of the system is left arbitrary throughout the paper.

Marine ecosystem restoration with a focus on coral reef ecosystems
Creators: name: Varkey, Divya Alice
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The declines of fish populations in ecosystems around the globe have triggered considerable interest in marine ecosystem restoration. In addition to focusing on individual fish populations, there is increased emphasis on understanding inter-species interactions and on understanding the human relationships with the ecosystems. My thesis approaches marine restoration from (a) practical aspects of considering multispecies interactions in the ecosystem (Ecopath with Ecosim models), estimating unreported and illegal catches (influence tables) and policy that considers the concerns of multiple stakeholders (Bayesian influence diagram modeling); (b) theoretical aspects of carrying capacity and fish life history analyzed using life history parameters (Population dynamics modeling). I begin my thesis by exploring the technological, socio-economic, and political history of Raja Ampat in Eastern Indonesia (my geographical focus) to understand resource management challenges and to calculate the trends in relative misreporting of fisheries catch. The unreported fish catch exceeds the reported fish catch by a factor of 1.5. My next chapter explores the ecological benefits of establishing marine protected areas for coral reef ecosystems in Raja Ampat using Ecopath, Ecosim and Ecospace models. I estimate an ideal minimum size of no-take areas— the size of no-take area at which the biomass density of reef fish reached an asymptote—to be 16 to 25 km². Analysis of biomass density of reef fish in MPAs led to questions about ecosystem carrying capacity. To explore carrying capacity, I reconstruct ancient snapper population biomass using archaeological data obtained from fish middens using equilibrium age structure model. The results show that the ancient snapper population was about 2 to 4 times higher than the modern population biomass. To model the differing utilities of different stakeholders, in the next chapter, I develop a bayesian influence diagram model. The results indicate that restricting net fisheries and implementing 25% fisheries closure are robust scenarios favored under several combinations of the modeled variables and utility functions. The final chapter explores how the life history parameters of fish species affect the population response to restoration. It is expected that slow growing species would show a greater response to protection than fast growing species.

description: Pattern reconfigurable antennas represent an antenna design class that differs from classical fixed-form, fixed-function antennas in that they can reconfigure and adapt their radiation pattern to fit the requirements of a time varying system. The explosion of the variety of satellite applications in the last two decades demands novel, compact antenna designs that allow the capture of ultra-week signals in the presence of RF interference and multipath. Advances in electromagnetic simulation tools and RF/microwave processing technologies have enabled the design of new compact antennas that can be integrated with high quality RF and microwave active and passive components. This dissertation introduces the concept of pattern reconfigurable antenna in a small form factor using novel reactively loaded spiral antennas. The proposed design allows mitigation of reception of intentional or unintentional RF interference sources in the receivers designed for weak (i.e. satellite signal) reception. Two new antennas capable of reconfigurable pattern control are introduced: a dual polarized spiral antenna and x-spiral (cross-spiral) antenna. The novel approach to the creation of sharp nulls in the antenna radiation pattern is presented. The new antenna designs solved various problems associated with classical approach to spiral antenna design and lead to improvements such as lower overall Axial Ratio and higher efficiency/gain at lower end of operating frequency bandwidth. The relevant background work is described and then the design details, computer simulations and measured experimental results are given.

description: Conservation conflicts, commonly defined as “situations that occur when two or more parties with strongly held opinions clash over conservation objectives, and when one party is perceived to assert its interests at the expense of another” (Redpath et al., 2013) are expected within the realm of public land management. Conservation conflicts have been an increasing issue worldwide as the consumption of natural resources can directly oppose conservation efforts. Quantitative and qualitative approaches have been adopted in similar studies to mitigate or resolve conservation conflicts. This thesis focuses on a 2017 conflict over logging in Yellowwood State Forest in Indiana. The Social Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) framework was applied in this thesis to examine economic, ecological, and recreational criteria from multiple stakeholders' perspectives and understand how a retrospective assessment can contribute to improved conflict resolution. The study follows four steps: conducting an institutional analysis, defining criteria and potential alternative scenarios, generating an impact matrix through surveys and interviews, and aggregating results for cross-scenario comparison. The design of these steps attempts to engage stakeholders in the decision-making process and increase transparency. The ranking results reveal a clear preference for the “Shelterwood Cuts” alternative, indicating that different actions may have been a better solution. Although the methodology alone cannot make decisions, it can aid the decision-maker in creating a solution to a conservation conflict by providing guidance and bringing attention to the aspects of a conflict that require change.

description: Archosaurs (e.g., crocodylians, dinosaurs, and birds) are the most diverse and successful terrestrial vertebrates. An understanding of the nesting strategies in both extinct (e.g., non-avian dinosaurs) and extant archosaurs (i.e., crocodylians and birds) is crucial for advancement of our knowledge on the evolution and diversification of this group. However, nesting methods and behaviors of non-avian dinosaurs are still poorly understood due to the limitations of the fossil record. In this dissertation, certain features of eggs and nests in dinosaurs (e.g., clutch size, egg mass, substrates of nests, water vapor conductance of eggs, and eggshell porosity) are compared with those of their closest living relatives (i.e., birds and crocodylians) and aspects of dinosaur nesting (i.e., nest type, incubation behavior, incubation heat source, and incubation period) are inferred and reconstructed. Findings in this dissertation suggest that nests and nesting styles among non-avian dinosaurs were diverse, and that bird-like traits were acquired throughout their evolution. Analyses of eggs and eggshell porosity indicate that more basal dinosaurs (i.e., ornithischians, sauropodomorphs, Lourinhanosaurus) completely covered their eggs with nest materials during incubation, although more derived forms (e.g., oviraptorosaurs, troodontids) used open nests, like modern birds, in which the eggs were not fully buried. The lithologies of the clutches of basal dinosaurs reveal their nests were probably incubated with external heat sources (e.g., microbial respiration, solar radiation), like those of modern crocodylians and megapode birds. Distribution and lithologies of some ornithischian and some sauropodomorph clutches show that heat from microbial respiration, in particular, was used for incubation, whereas other sauropodomorphs may have used inorganic heat sources, such as solar radiation. More derived dinosaurs (i.e., maniraptorans) had eggshell porosities and clutch lithologies that indicate their nests were partially open, indicating that these taxa brooded their eggs. Regardless of the type of nest, heat source, or incubation behavior, incubation period of most non-avian dinosaurs examined was relatively short, more comparable to that of birds than crocodylians. Major dinosaur (and archosaur) clades show diversity in their nesting and incubation, and also reveal a transition to more bird-like nesting features through evolution.

description: In a Euclidean path integral formulation of gauge theory and quantum mechanics, the theta-term induces a sign problem, and relatedly, a complex phase for the fugacity of topological defects; whereas in Minkowskian formulation, it induces a topological (geometric) phase multiplying ordinary path-amplitudes. In an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory which admits a semi-classical limit, we show that the complex fugacity generates interference between Euclidean path histories, i.e., monopole-instanton events, and radically alters the vacuum structure. At theta=0, a mass gap is due to the monopole-instanton plasma, and the theory has a unique vacuum. At theta=pi, the monopole induced mass gap vanishes, despite the fact that monopole density is independent of theta, due to destructive topological interference. The theory has two options: to remain gapless or to be gapped with a two-fold degenerate vacua. We show the latter is realized by the magnetic bion mechanism, and the two-vacua are realization of spontaneous CP-breaking. The effect of the theta-term in the circle-compactified gauge theory is a generalization of Aharonov-Bohm effect, and the geometric (Berry) phase. As theta varies from 0 to pi, the gauge theory interpolates between even- and odd-integer spin quantum anti-ferromagnets on two spatial dimensional bi-partite lattices, which have ground state degeneracies one and two, respectively, as it is in gauge theory at theta=0 and theta=pi.

description: Aspects of Density Functional Resonance Theory (DFRT) [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{107}, 163002 (2011)], a recently developed complex-scaled version of ground-state Density Functional Theory (DFT), are studied in detail. The asymptotic behavior of the complex density function is related to the complex resonance energy and system's threshold energy, and the function's local oscillatory behavior is connected with preferential directions of electron decay. Practical considerations for implementation of the theory are addressed including sensitivity to the complex-scaling parameter, $θ$. In Kohn-Sham DFRT, it is shown that almost all $θ$-dependence in the calculated energies and lifetimes can be extinguished via use of a proper basis set or fine grid. The highest occupied Kohn-Sham orbital energy and lifetime are related to a physical affinity and width, and the threshold energy of the Kohn-Sham system is shown to be equal to the threshold energy of the interacting system shifted by a well-defined functional. Finally, various complex-scaling conditions are derived which relate the functionals of ground-state DFT to those of DFRT via proper scaling factors and a non-Hermitian coupling constant system.

description: Tightly-coupled integrated system is advantageous in providing seamless navigation solution compared with other integration schemes, and is attractive in multiple application fields. This thesis focuses on the design, implementation of adaptive tightly-coupled integrated navigation system with the aiding of external measurement. The key issues investigated and problems solved in this dissertation are: 1. It presents four novel adaptive noise estimation approaches. These methods rely on the observation information to estimate the measurement noise property and error characteristic. The noise assessment method makes use of difference operation to eliminate the effect of other elements and this process is decoupled from the filter calculation loop. Thus, the covariance matrix estimation result will not be coupled with the state vector error, and this existed problem in traditional adaptive Kalman filter is avoided. 2. It proposes a new low-cost MEMS sensor in-filed calibration algorithm. The navigation mission requires calibration before started. The proposed approach can perform calibration of the sensors without any requirement or special needs. The calibration scheme is convenient to be accomplished by simple hand rotation in space. The bias, scale factor error and non-orthogonal error are able to be identified. 3. It investigates the Euler angle based attitude estimation. The Euler angle attitude update is constrained for further practical application owning to its singularity problem. The singularity problem will cause the attitude procedure discontinue and involves more estimation error. An intelligent coordinate switch algorithm is proposed to overcome this drawback and has achieved a good performance. The adaptive noise estimation approach is also applied in the filter to adjust the weight of observation model, which prevents the negative effect of external acceleration. 4. It introduces the adaptive noise estimation theorem and external observation in the standard tightly-coupled integrated system, and establishes the system hardware platform to test the validation. The height and heading information measured by barometer and magnetometer are used involved in measurement model to provide aiding information. A switch filter strategy is designed to save computational time, and the adaptive noise estimation approach is used to acquire the GPS measurement error characteristic. Both simulation and practical tests are conducted to verify the system.

description: Non-coding RNAs occupy a significant fraction of the human genome. Their biological significance is backed up by a plethora of emerging evidence. One of the most robust approaches to demonstrate non-coding RNA’s biological relevance is through their prognostic value. Using the rich gene expression data from The Cancer Genome Altas (TCGA), we designed Advanced Expression Survival Analysis (AESA), a web tool which provides several novel survival analysis approaches not offered by previous tools. In addition to the common single-gene approach, AESA computes the gene expression composite score of a set of genes for survival analysis and utilizes permutation test or cross-validation to assess the significance of log-rank statistic and the degree of over-fitting. AESA offers survival feature selection with post-selection inference and utilizes expanded TCGA clinical data including overall, disease-specific, disease-free, and progression-free survival information. Users can analyze either protein-coding or non-coding regions of the transcriptome. We demonstrated the effectiveness of AESA using several empirical examples. Our analyses showed that non-coding RNAs perform as well as messenger RNAs in predicting survival of cancer patients. These results reinforce the potential prognostic value of non-coding RNAs. AESA is developed as a module in the freely accessible analysis suite MutEx.
