Crossing the borders: a critical approach to cross cultural social work education
Creators: name: Costello, Susie
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024

description: This PhD by project outlines research conducted in 2007 on the Thai Burma border, introducing social work education to Burmese health and community workers. In addition to experiencing physical and social upheaval, workers have little access to general education or training in relation to their work with refugees and displaced people. A request from the director of a Refugee Health Clinic to provide social work education for local workers led to my research question: How do I develop and teach a culturally relevant, cross cultural, sustainable social work curriculum for Burmese health and community workers on the Thai Burma border? The project consists of a product: three manuals of curriculum developed on the border and written for use by future visitors or locally trained workers, and an exegesis: an exploration of the research, methodology and a detailed analysis of my product in the context of the literature. The exegesis is organised around three main themes. First is the intersection of social work education and international social work, with a critique of colonialist impositions of Western social work in developing Asian countries. This section considers what constitutes relevant social work and social work education in this context. The second theme examines the researcher's attempts to suspend her assumptions and create a learning exchange through culturally sensitive social relationships that acknowledge and scrutinize power relations within the Burma border context. The final theme raises questions of critical pedagogy. Key differences in beliefs about educational purpose and approaches can be identified between Asia and the Western world. The project employed adult learning principles and explored the challenges of teaching critical thinking. Based on a participatory action research model, the curriculum design process attempted to be collaborative, inclusive and recursive. As a corollary, the project created a community of practice that continues to meet and work together towards social justice for migrants on the border, concepts that were not known to the participants prior to the training program. The project aimed to connect international social work education to social work's core missions of emancipation, human rights and activism on the Thai Burma border. The themes are transferable to other sites of social work in the Asia-Pacific region where social development precedes the practice and teaching of social work.

description: Mild dementia is distressing for patients and their relatives. Due to its chronic and progressive nature, healthcare systems are at risk of being overwhelmed by the increasing number of affected patients. Thus, there is a need for safe and well-tolerated treatments that can be initiated at the earliest stages. This meta-analysis of clinical trials aimed to assess the treatment effects of Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761 in patients with mild dementia. Eligible randomised placebo-controlled trials were included in this meta-analysis. Data of patients with mild dementia (defined as the SKT Short Cognitive Performance Test total scores from 9 to 15) were selected. The meta-analysis was performed with pooled data from four eligible trials comprising 782 patients with mild dementia. Treatment with 240 mg EGb 761 daily was significantly superior to placebo in cognition (p = 0.04), global assessment (p = 0.01), activities of daily living (p = 0.01) and quality of life (p = 0.02). Standardised effects were medium to large. The frequency of adverse events was alike in patients treated with EGb 761 and placebo (p = 0.66). The meta-analysis demonstrates that patients with mild dementia benefit from EGb 761 in terms of cognition, activities of daily living, global assessment and quality of life.

description: To systematically review the literature and address the question: “Do silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit antiviral activity against Influenza A viruses?” A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, LILACS, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Embase, Google Scholar, and ProQuest to assess the antiviral effects of AgNPs against Influenza A in both in vitro and in vivo studies. AgNPs demonstrated antiviral activity against H1N1 and H3N2 Influenza A strains, with efficacy dependent on nanoparticle concentration, exposure time, and size. The proposed mechanisms include viral disintegration, induction of cellular resistance, and reduction of viral load.
AgNPs exhibit antiviral effects against Influenza A in both in vitro and in vivo. Silver nanoparticles are tiny particles of silver, so small that they cannot be seen with the naked eye. They can be used to fight bacteria, fungi and viruses. In this study, we looked at whether silver nanoparticles could fight the virus that causes flu, called Influenza A. We found that silver nanoparticles can stop the virus from causing the disease and help to fight the infection. This suggests that silver particles could be used to develop new medicines to help control infections and prevent the spread of influenza.

Tissue specific gene expression patterns and chromosome organization in chicken

description: The causes behind chromosomal organization and their effects on the evolutionary process are not fully understood yet. Birds are an interesting group to address such questions as they have a typical karyotype that is fairly conserved across the evolution of the group. The typical avian karyotype consists of 6-7 pairs of macrochromosomes, a pair of sex chromosomes and 30-32 pairs of microchromosomes. The existence of mechanisms preventing abrupt changes in the karyotype of birds have previously been suggested. One possibility is that the different types of chromosomes in birds provide the specific genomic environment to ensure an optimal level of expression necessary for the type and function of the genes that they contain. This could be especially relevant for those genes requiring similar regulation, such as tissue-specific genes and house-keeping genes. We address this question in chicken by comparing at the chromosomal level the tissue specificity (using Shannon entropy) of existing gene expression (RNA-seq) data from 21 tissues. Chicken macrochromosomes had smaller values of gene entropies (i.e. variable gene expression among tissues) and less tissues-specific genes (genes within decile 1) than expected. In contrast, chicken microchromosomes show greater gene entropies (i.e. uniform gene expression among tissues) and more house-keeping genes than expected. Sex chromosomes had smaller values of gene entropies and were positively enriched with tissues-specific genes. Enrichment analysis for Gene Ontology (GO) terms established a set of significant genes, mainly housekeeping genes in microchromosomes. Our results suggest a link between the morphology of chromosomes and regulation of the expression of their genes. We are now investigating possible mechanisms underpinning this link.

description: We measured the local magneto-transport (MT) signal with an out-of-plane magnetic field, including magneto-resistance (MR) and Extraordinary Hall effect (EHE), in exchange-biased [Co/Pd]IrMn thin multilayers that are micro-structured with a 100 micron window. We found that when measured locally around the window, the MT signal deviate from the expected behavior. We studied possible causes, including film micro-structuration, electrical contact geometry as well as magnetic field tilt from the normal direction. These MT measurements were carried using the Van-der-Pauw method, with a set a four microscopic contacts directly surrounding the window, and a set of four contacts positioned several millimeters away from the window. We found that tilting the magnetic field direction with respect to the normal does not significantly affect the MT signal, whereas the positioning and geometry of the contacts seem to highly affect the MT signal. When the contacts are directly surrounding the window, the shape of the EHE signal is drastically deformed, suggesting that the electron path is disturbed by the presence of the window and the proximity of the electric contacts. If, on the other hand, the contacts are sufficiently far apart, the MT signal is not significantly affected by the presence of the window. Furthermore, the deformed EHE signal measured on the inner contacts can be modeled as a mix of the EHE and MR signals measured on the outer contacts.

description: We introduce a notion of partial algebraic quantum group. This is an important special case of a weak multiplier Hopf algebra with integrals, as introduced in the work of Van Daele and Wang. At the same time, it generalizes the notion of partial compact quantum group as introduced by De Commer and Timmermann. As an application, we show that the Drinfeld double of a partial compact quantum group can be defined as a partial $*$-algebraic quantum group.

description: The assembly of colloidal cubic diamond is a challenging process since the shape and interaction parameters and the thermodynamic conditions where this structure is stable are elusive. The simultaneous use of shape-anisotropic particles and strong directional interactions has proven to be a successful path to exclusively nucleate this structure. Here, using molecular dynamics simulations, we explore in detail the conditions where nucleation of cubic diamond from tetrahedral building blocks is favored. In particular, we focus on the effect of depletion and DNA-mediated interactions to form and stabilize this cubic diamond crystal. We find that a particular balance between the strength and range of the depletion interactions enhances the self-assembly of stable cubic diamond, leading to a narrow region where this structure is nucleated. Moreover, we determine that stronger short-range depletion attractions may arrest the system leading to the formation of percolating diamond networks or fully disordered gel structures. Accordingly, the internal arrangements of these structures exhibit a distinct variation in terms of fractal dimension and the presence of six-membered rings that increasingly acquire internal strain as the arrest gets more pronounced. With these results we provide a clear route for the self-assembly of cubic colloidal diamond, towards the realization of crystals with superior photonic properties.

description: Die „NFDI4Biodiversity All Hands Conference“ ist die jährlich stattfindende zentrale Veranstaltung für alle Mitarbeitenden des NFDI4Biodiversity Konsortiums und eingeladene Interessierte. Sie fand 2024 vom 24. bis 26. April in den Räumlichkeiten der Generaldirektion der Staatlichen Archive Bayerns in München statt (https://nfdi4biodiversity.org/de/events/all-hands-conference-2024/). Als Konferenzvorprogramm gab es ein Vernetzungstreffen für Angehörige Bayerischer Behörden und amtlicher Stellen im Umfeld der Staatlichen Archive.

Der Vortrag „Neue Wege zur FAIRen Archivierung von digitalen Forschungsdaten aus Bayern“ wurde in diesem Rahmen gehalten. Er beschreibt eine seit 2022 bestehende Kooperation zweier NFDI4Biodiversity-Partner aus Bayern: Die Staatlichen Naturwissenschaftlichen Sammlungen Bayerns (SNSB) und die Generaldirektion der Staatlichen Archive Bayerns (GDA). Zunächst werden die sich ergänzenden Aufgaben der beiden Fachorganisationen beschrieben, wobei auf die unterschiedlichen Archivalien und auf die Bedeutung, den Umfang und das Alter der naturhistorischen Forschungssammlungen in Bayern, speziell für den Bereich Biodiversitätsforschung, hingewiesen wird. 

Die laufende Zusammenarbeit besteht zwischen Mitarbeitenden des Data Centers bzw. der Biodiversitätsinformatik-Abteilung der SNSB und dem digitalen Archiv der GDA. Ziel ist die regelmäßige Archivierung der SNSB-Sammlungsdatenbestände, wie sie im in-house Datenbanksystem der Diversity Workbench (DWB; www.diversityworkbench.net) gemanagt werden. Dies soll anhand des SIARD-Standards und im SIARD-Datenformat geschehen. Entsprechende Datenflüsse, die von der GDA akzeptierte Abgabestruktur für ein SIARD-Datenpaket sowie die Implementierung für einen ausgewählten Datenbestand aus dem Pilzherbarium der SNSB werden vorgestellt.

Die Kooperation soll in der laufenden Phase sowie Phase 2 von NFDI4Biodiversity fortgesetzt werden, um weitere DWB-Datenbestände aus verschiedenen Forschungssammlungen (Fossilien, Tiere) zu archivieren und den SIARD-Ansatz auch auf andere relationale Datenbanksysteme auszuweiten. Über die etablierten Netzwerke und Zugriffsportale der staatlichen Archive in Deutschland können dann auch ansonsten nicht veröffentliche sensible Bereiche der archivierten Daten (geschützt durch Personenrecht, Umweltrecht etc.) unter eingeschränkten Zugriffsrechten (pseudo-) anonymisiert bereitgestellt werden.

description: In the field of complex dynamics, multistable attractors have been gaining a significant attention due to its unpredictability in occurrence and extreme sensitivity to initial conditions. Co-existing attractors are abundant in diverse systems ranging from climate to finance, ecological to social systems. In this article, we investigate a data-driven approach to infer different dynamics of a multistable system using echo state network (ESN). We start with a parameter-aware reservoir and predict diverse dynamics for different parameter values. Interestingly, machine is able to reproduce the dynamics almost perfectly even at distant parameters which lie considerably far from the parameter values related to the training dynamics. In continuation, we can predict whole bifurcation diagram significant accuracy as well. We extend this study for exploring various dynamics of multistable attractors at unknown parameter value. While, we train the machine with the dynamics of only one attarctor at parameter $p$, it can capture the dynamics of co-existing attractor at a new parameter value $p+Δp$. Continuing the simulation for multiple set of initial conditions, we can identify the basins for different attractors. We generalize the results by applying the scheme on two distinct multistable systems.

description: Screening of unknown particles, including viruses and nanoparticles, is key in medicine, industry and pollutant determination. However, existing techniques require sample a priori knowledge or modification (e.g. fluorescence). Here we introduce RYtov MIcroscopy for Nanoparticles Identification (RYMINI), a noninvasive and non-destructive optical approach that is combining holographic labelfree 3D tracking and high-sensitivity quantitative phase imaging into a compact optical setup. Dedicated to the characterization of nano-objects in solution, it is compatible with highly demanding environments such as level-3 biological laboratories. Metrological characterization has been performed at the level of each single object on both absorbing and transparent particles as well as on infectious HIV-1, SARS-CoV-2 and extracellular vesicles in solution. We demonstrate the capability of RYMINI to determine the nature, concentration, size, complex refractive index and mass of each single particle. We discuss the application of the method in unknown solution without requiring any knowledge or model of the particles' response. It paves the way to label-free nano-object identification in terra incognita.

description: This paper is dedicated to weighted composition semigroups on spaces of continuous functions and their subspaces. We consider semigroups induced by semiflows and semicocycles on Banach spaces $\mathcal{F}(Ω)$ of continuous functions on a Hausdorff space $Ω$ such that the norm-topology is stronger than the compact-open topology like the Hardy spaces, the weighted Bergman spaces, the Dirichlet space, the Bloch type spaces, the space of bounded Dirichlet series and weighted spaces of continuous or holomorphic functions. It was shown by Gallardo-Gutiérrez, Siskakis and Yakubovich that there are no non-trivial norm-strongly continuous weighted composition semigroups on Banach spaces $\mathcal{F}(\mathbb{D})$ of holomorphic functions on the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ such that $H^{\infty}\subset\mathcal{F}(\mathbb{D})\subset\mathcal{B}_{1}$ where $H^{\infty}$ is the Hardy space of bounded holomorphic functions on $\mathbb{D}$ and $\mathcal{B}_{1}$ the Bloch space. However, we show that there are non-trivial weighted composition semigroups on such spaces which are strongly continuous w.r.t. the mixed topology between the norm-topology and the compact-open topology. We study such weighted composition semigroups in the general setting of Banach spaces of continuous functions and derive necessary and sufficient conditions on the spaces involved, the semiflows and semicocycles for strong continuity w.r.t. the mixed topology and as a byproduct for norm-strong continuity as well. Moreover, we give several characterisations of their generator and their space of norm-strong continuity.

description: Diese Diplomarbeit versteht sich als eine Analyse der ethischen Herausforderungen der modernen Gen- und Reproduktionstechnologien aus einer kultur- und sozialanthropologischen Perspektive. Das Ziel dieser Forschung bestand darin, einen kritischen Beitrag zu diesem Thema zu leisten. Daher wurden die ethischen Herausforderungen der neuen Erkenntnisse auf diesem Gebiet thematisiert um gleichzeitig einen Überblick über die diesbezügliche aktuelle Diskussion innerhalb der Gesellschaft in Österreich zu schaffen. Dies wurde versucht mit einer theoretischen Auseinandersetzung der österreichischen Gesetzeslage, den offiziellen Stellungnahmen der beiden christlichen Kirchen in Österreich zur Biomedizin sowie der Bioethikkommission zu verwirklichen. Die Hypothesen dieser Diplomarbeit stellen sich folgendermaßen dar: ist die Manipulation an einer befruchteten Eizelle für die österreichische Gesellschaft hinsichtlich Vorstellungen zu „Menschen nach Maß“ oder einem „Designerbaby“ und der Vorbeugung von Erbkrankheiten förderlich oder hinderlich? Des Weiteren wird eine „Blockordnung“ der einzelnen ExpertInnen-Meinungen zur Fragestellung vermutet. Das bedeutet, dass die Ansichten der einzelnen ExpertInnen innerhalb der jeweiligen Kategorien Kirche, Medizin und Ethik einheitlich sind, sich von Kategorie zu Kategorie im Wesentlichen nicht überschneiden und somit abgrenzen lassen. Daher wird unterstellt, dass die subjektiven Meinungen der Interview-PartnerInnen innerhalb einer Kategorie strikt voneinander getrennt werden können. Das methodische Vorgehen bestand in der Durchführung von zehn qualitativen Interviews anhand eines Leitfadens mit ausgewählten ExpertInnen aus der Reproduktionsmedizin und Kirche wie auch einigen Mitgliedern der Bioethikkommission in Österreich. Die Auswertung und Analyse der exemplarischen und subjektiven Ansichten der ExpertInnen basieren auf der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse nach Phillip Mayring. Ergebnisse und Schlussfolgerungen der Forschung bestehen unter anderem darin, dass sich die Annahme keinesfalls bestätigt, dass die subjektiven Meinungen der ExpertInnen in Blöcke eingeteilt werden können. Diese Hypothese wurde widerlegt, da während der Auswertung und Analyse deutlich wurde, dass die Ansichten der einzelnen ExpertInnen nicht zu kategorisieren sind. Des Weiteren ist bezüglich der Forschungsfrage zu erwähnen, dass eine Manipulation an einer befruchteten Eizelle laut Mehrzahl der befragten Personen als hinderlich für die österreichische Gesellschaft betrachtet wurde. Nur einige wenige GesprächspartnerInnen waren der Meinung, dass eine Manipulation einer befruchteten Eizelle durchaus förderlich sein kann.
Sustainable transport and urban form: modelling the shift from a monocentric private transport-oriented city to a polycentric public transport-oriented city

description: This study investigates the shift from a monocentric private car-oriented city to a polycentric public transport-oriented city. In the past, metropolitan areas have suffered from traffic problems such as congestion. In many monocentric cities, congestion has steadily increased and is expected to further increase in the future. Congestion leads to problems such as air pollution, noise, longer trip distances, increased trip time, greenhouse emissions and increased stress and accident rates. Urban expansion, population growth and road network development have led to urban sprawl, and this structural shift towards urban sprawl has significantly increased traffic jams. The results indicated that planned and concentrated employment and population levels in key activity centres can deliver significant benefits by reducing travel cost and time. The findings indicated that the coordinated redistribution of housing and activity would achieve the best possible transport outcome, in terms of the number of car trips, car sharing, and car travel distance. It can also reduce travel consumption in general, including travel on public transport. The study also demonstrated the benefits in increased walking trips. Moreover, the polycentric approach would also improve accessibility to work for primary, tertiary and retail purposes by car, public transport and on foot.

A study of the Lithgow New Government Office Development: using best practice to deliver sustainable developments
Creators: name: Urizar, Mark
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024

description: Business practices have and will continue to greatly influence and determine the shape and viability of the built environment. Traditional practices have continued to use non renewable and polluting resources such as fossil fuels, and these are rapidly becoming unviable and unacceptable within the built environment. As an alternative to these traditional practices, concerned building practitioners are applying best practice initiatives in the-belief that these produce sustainable outcomes.

The research titled ‘A study of the Lithgow New Government Office Development; Using Best Practice to Deliver Sustainable Developments’ is based on the hypothesis that applying building industry’s best practice initiatives can deliver sustainability within the built environment. This hypothesis assumes links between the applied practices, the outcome achieved and sustainability. This research tests this hypothesis with a single ‘critical’ case project; the recently constructed Lithgow Government Office Building (GOB) Development, and against a theoretical framework that defines sustainability.

The GOB Development is a best practice example procured by a long lived and socially responsible organisation, government organisation - the Department of Commerce. This organisation adopted and applied new government policies along with best practice initiatives to produce a new benchmark – an award wining, trend-setting, seemingly sustainable development. The industry successes of the GOB Development made this a suitable single case study, one that was most likely to fare better than any other development procured at that time and by other means.

The research conducted provides an insight and understanding into all the different factors during the procurement of the GOB project and highlights how these influenced the eventual built outcome and determined whether sustainability would be attained. This research assessment is seen as a crucial step in understanding the many limitations of best practice and thereby enabling the building industry’s progression towards achieving sustainability within the built environment. The potential insight that can be gained from this research can enable the relationship between practice and theory to be better understood, and thereby provide the means to influence all future built outcomes. It is believed that such insight can encourage building practitioners and organisations to adopt and apply best practice initiatives as a means to achieve sustainability within the built environment.

description: We realize fractal-like photonic lattices using cw-laser-writing technique, thereby observe distinct compact localized states (CLSs) associated with different flatbands in the same lattice setting. Such triangle-shaped lattices, akin to the first generation Sierpinski lattices, possess a band structure where singular non-degenerate and nonsingular degenerate flatbands coexist. By proper phase modulation of an input excitation beam, we demonstrate experimentally not only the simplest CLSs but also their superimposition into other complex mode structures. Furthermore, we show by numerical simulation a dynamical oscillation of the flatband states due to beating of the CLSs that have different eigenenergies. These results may provide inspiration for exploring fundamental phenomena arising from fractal structure, flatband singularity, and real-space topology.

description: The exotic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials and 2D heterostructures, built by forming heterogeneous multi-layered stacks, have been widely explored across a number of subject matters following the goal to invent, design, and improve applications enabled by 2D materials. To successfully harvest these unique properties effectively and increase the yield of manufacturing 2D material-based devices for achieving reliable and repeatable results is the current challenge. The scientific community has introduced various experimental transfer systems explained in detail for exfoliated 2D materials, however, the field lacks statistical analysis and the capability of producing a transfer technique enabling; i) high transfer precision and yield, ii) cross-contamination free transfer, iii) multi-substrate transfer, and iv) rapid prototyping without wet chemistry. Here we introduce a novel 2D material deterministic transfer system and experimentally show its high accuracy, reliability, repeatability, and non-contaminating transfer features by demonstrating fabrication of 2D material-based optoelectronic devices featuring novel device physics and unique functionality. Such rapid and material-near prototyping capability can accelerate not only layered material science in discovery but also engineering innovations.
