Decolonizing curatorial practice : acknowledging Indigenous curatorial praxis, mapping its agency, recognizing it's aesthetic within contemporary Canadian art
Creators: name: Isaac, Jaimie Lyn
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: For decades, Indigenous art, artifacts and objects have had a contested history within galleries and museums. This is because Indigenous material culture was collected, interpreted, displayed and described through a Western colonial ideology, without Indigenous consent, intellectual or cultural contributions. The history represented in galleries and museums was deficient and perpetuated harmful myths and systemic racism. In order to substantiate change and demand for Indigenous leadership, it is necessary to understand the reality of the Indian as a dehumanized population, whose voice and knowledge in historical narratives has been systematically undermined, undergrounded and dismissed. More than 150 years of ‘education’ in the residential school systems, and forcible separation from Indigenous cultural traditions in ceremony, life ways and language, has affected more than seven generations. In the late 60s and early 70s Indigenous peoples en masse united to confront the disconnection from their cultural knowledge and language, and became a time of cultural resurgence and Indigenous renaissance. Indigenous Curatorial Praxis developed to assert, advance and frame Indigenous art as contemporary and relevant. By providing an historical context for its development, my main thesis seeks to identify and acknowledge the agency and aesthetic of Indigenous curatorial praxis and methodology. Indigenous curatorial practice is a stream of contemporary curatorial practice and this research seeks to recognize Indigenous methods embodied within the larger practice. This thesis inquires what it means to decolonize and Indigenize museum, gallery, and exhibition spaces and demonstrate how Indigenous curatorial contributions have affected the Canadian artistic landscape. The contextual genesis of my philosophy is rooted in a framework of Indigenous knowledge, decolonizing methods and my Anishnaabe-Indigenous familial, curatorial and artistic knowledge.

description: A simple molecular thermodynamic approach is applied to the study of the adsorption of gases of chain molecules on solid surfaces. We use a model based on the Statistical Associating Fluid Theory for Variable Range (SAFT-VR) potentials [A. Gil-Villegas, A. Galindo, P. J. Whitehead, S. J. Mills, G. Jackson, A. N. Burgess, J. Chem. Phys. 106 (1997) 4168] that we extend by including a quasi-two-dimensional approximation to describe the adsorption properties of this type of real gases [A. Martinez, M. Castro, C. McCabe, A. Gil-Villegas, J. Chem. Phys. 126 (2007) 074707]. The model is applied to ethane, ethylene, propane, and carbon dioxide adsorbed on activated carbon and silica gel, which are porous media of significant industrial interest. We show that the adsorption isotherms obtained by means of the present SAFT-VR modeling are in fair agreement with the experimental results provided in the literature

description: Pulsation is believed to be the leading cause of dusty mass loss from Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars. We present a temporal study of T Cep, a long-period Mira variable, using seven ISO SWS spectra, covering a 16-month period over a single pulsation cycle. The observed spectral dust features change over the pulsation cycle of this Mira. In general, the overall apparent changes in spectral features can be attributed to changes in the dust temperature, resulting from the intrinsic pulsation cycle of the central star. However, not all feature changes are so easily explained. Based on direct comparison with laboratory spectra of several potential minerals, the dust is best explained by crystalline iron-rich silicates. These findings contradict the currently favored dust formation hypotheses.

description: AIMS: We understand little of the pathogenesis of developmental cortical lesions, because we understand little of the diversity of the cell types that contribute to the diseases or how those cells interact. We tested the hypothesis that cellular diversity and cell-cell interactions play an important role in these disorders by investigating the signalling molecules in the commonest cortical malformations that lead to childhood epilepsy, Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD) and Tuberous Sclerosis (TS). METHODS: Transcriptional profiling clustered cases into molecularly distinct groups. Using gene expression data, we identified the secretory signalling molecules in FCD/TS and characterised the cell types expressing these molecules. We developed a functional model using organotypic cultures. RESULTS: We identified 113 up-regulated secretory molecules in FCDIIB/TS. The top 12 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were validated by immunohistochemistry. This highlighted 2 molecules, Chitinase 3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1) and C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) (MCP1) that were expressed in a unique population of small cells in close proximity to balloon cells (BC). We then characterised these cells and developed a functional model in organotypic slice cultures. We found that the number of CHI3L1 and CCL2 expressing cells decreased following inhibition of mTOR, the main aberrant signalling pathway in TS and FCD. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings highlight previously uncharacterised small cell populations in FCD and TS which express specific signalling molecules. These findings indicate a new level of diversity and cellular interactions in cortical malformations and provides a generalisable approach to understanding cell-cell interactions and cellular heterogeneity in developmental neuropathology.

Subjects: Pancreas; Pancreatic Neoplasms

description: Context Solid and cystic papillary neoplasm of the pancreas is an extremely rare neoplasm that mostly affects young females in the mean age of 25 years and accounts for about 0.2-2.7% of all pancreatic tumors. Case report A 18-year-old female presented with progressively increasing mass in the left hypochondrium and epigastric regions and vague abdominal pain. There was no history of jaundice and vomiting. The mean diameter of the tumors was 17x24 cm. Preoperative core needle revealed solid and cystic papillary neoplasm. Distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy were performed. The patient did not receive adjuvant therapy and no tumor recurrence was detected in follow up. Conclusion Solid and cystic papillary neoplasm may reach large dimensions with a benign behavior and is curable by surgical excision. Differential diagnosis from other tumors with aggressive behavior is therefore important.

description: Context Acute pancreatitis is often caused by acute alcoholic intoxication or biliary stone migration. Other etiologies are less frequent. Case report We report an exceptional case of kissing ulcer as the cause of an acute pancreatitis due to the perforation of the posterior ulcus into the pancreas. More remarkable is the association of a left portal branch thrombosis and a portal biliopathy. Conclusion We describe a case of acute pancreatitis of unusual origin, associated with an equally uncommon pathology which is portal cavernoma. A literature review is then exposed to try to ascertain if there is a connection between these two entities.

Here, $\mathbb{Z}_n^{\times}$ denotes the set which contains all the invertible elements of the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n$. In particular, we prove that if $n=q$ is a power of an odd prime, then $A$ is a union of sets of the form $\{ a\cdot(\pm2^i)\}$. Additionally, we count the number of subsets of $\mathbb{Z}_q^{\times}$ with non-empty subset sums equally distributed modulo $q$.

description: Context Oxaliplatin, a third-generation platinum derivative is commonly used for the treatment of colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, upper gastrointestinal cancer, hepatobiliary cancer, and ovarian cancer. Neurotoxicity is the dose limiting toxicity and ototoxicity is very rare, less than 1% of patients. Case report We present a case of a female patient with locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer who developed hearing loss after receiving oxaliplatin and gemcitabine. The dose of oxaliplatin was reduced but continued due to clinical benefit and radiological response. Discussion To the best of our knowledge, this is the third case report of oxaliplatin-induced ototoxicity. Ototoxicity seems to be a rare complication of oxaliplatin therapy. Regardless of its rare occurrence, clinicians should be aware of this severe complication and be diligent in monitoring patients’s clinical symptoms.

description: Context Accessory spleen is a congenital abnormality consisting of normal splenic tissue in ectopic sites that is found in approximately 10-15% of the general population. However, an intrapancreatic accessory spleen has seldom been reported and multiple epithelial cysts in the intrapancreatic accessory spleen are extremely rare. Case report A 37-year-old woman with no clinical manifestations presented with two cystic lesions in the tail of the pancreas. The tumor markers CA 19-9 (251 U/mL) and SPAN-1 (38 U/mL) were increased. Computed tomography showed a multilocular cyst, 40 mm in size, and a unilocular cyst, 20 mm in size, in the tail of the pancreas and gallstones. The cystic component was hypointense on T1-weighted magnetic resonance images and hyperintense on T2-weighted magnetic resonance images. A laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy was performed with the presumptive diagnosis of a mucinous cystic neoplasm or an intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm with gallstones. The pathological examination showed that the walls of the two cysts were covered with non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium, surrounded by normal splenic tissue. The final pathological diagnosis was two epithelial cysts originating from an intrapancreatic accessory spleen. Conclusions Even though multiple masses were detected in the pancreatic tail, the possibility of epithelial cysts originating from an accessory spleen should be considered. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy might be a safe and effective procedure and provide good cosmetic result for a benign or low-grade malignant tumor in the pancreas.

description: Context Pancreatic dermoid cysts are rare, benign, germ cell tumors and part of the differential diagnosis for cystic neoplasms of the pancreas. Case report A 35-year-old man presented with an incidentally discovered, 2 cm cystic pancreatic neoplasm of the pancreatic tail identified on CT scan. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) revealed a complex, honeycomb lesion. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) yielded a sample of whitish, necrotic material containing histiocytes, benign epithelial cells, and lymphocytes. After distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy was performed, histology revealed a cyst lined by stratified squamous epithelium with benign sebaceous units consistent with a pancreatic dermoid cysts. Discussion Although axial imaging reliably detects cystic neoplasms of the pancreas, diagnostic criteria for rare lesions are lacking; therefore alternative modalities such as EUS/FNA can be utilized. This case report highlights the EUS and FNA findings associated with pancreatic dermoid cysts.

Cell based therapeutics for retinal degenerations
Creators: name: Bashar, A M A Emran
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Vision loss, due to retinal degeneration, is one of the major disabilities in the developed world. Cell based therapeutics showed promising results in preventing retinal degenerations. Here, mesenchymal stem cells have been used to develop therapeutics for two different disorders. First, the innate paracrine activity of the Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) has been utilized to prevent neurodegeneration in a rodent model (S334ter-4) of Retinitis Pigmentosa. To deliver a significant number of cells to the rodent retina, a novel magnetic targeting approach was applied. The MSCs were pre-labelled with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) and targeted to the eye by surgically placing a disc magnet in the orbit after systemic delivery. The magnetically guided MSCs provided better neuroprotection and functional responses (electroretinography and optokinetic tracking response) when compared to control and non-magnetic MSCs. The effect of magnetic nanoparticles on the paracrine secretion profile of MSCs was also analyzed. The concentration of the nanoparticles, used for the magnetic targeting study, had no significant effect on MSC’s paracrine activity; however, higher concentrations displayed varying effects for different factors. In the next project MSCs were employed as a vector for an ex vivo gene therapy approach for X linked retinoschisis (XLRS). MSCs were genetically modified to secrete an extracellular protein, retinoschisin (RS1), which is either nonfunctional or absent in XLRS. The RS1 expression from the MSCs was controlled in both constitutive (cMSC) and inducible (iMSC) manners. Cells, with both modifications, provided significant structural and functional benefits after intravitreal delivery in a RS1 knock-out mouse model when compared to unmodified MSCs, sham injection and no treatment controls. Among the two genetically modified cell lines, iMSC displayed better response compared to cMSC. These results from the MSC based therapeutic approaches in two different disease models show the potential of MSCs as a resourceful cell type for a number of retinal degenerations as well as diseases of other organs.

description: The Internet-of-Things (IoT) is an imminent and corporal technology that enables the connectivity of smart physical devices with virtual objects contriving in distinct platforms with the help of the internet. The IoT is under massive experimentation to operate in a distributed manner, making it favourable to be utilized in the healthcare ecosystem. However, un- der the IoT healthcare ecosystem (IoT-HS), the nodes of the IoT networks are unveiled to an aberrant level of security threats. Regulating an adequate volume of sensitive and personal data, IoT-HS undergoes various security challenges for which a distributed mechanism to address such concerns plays a vital role. Although Blockchain, having a distributed ledger, is integral to solving security concerns in IoT-HSs, it undergoes major problems, including massive storage and computational requirements. Also, Holochain, which has low computational and memory requirements, lacks authentication distribution availability. Therefore, this paper proposes a hybrid Holochain and Blockchain-based privacy perseverance and security framework for IoT-HSs that combines the benefits Holochain and Blockchain provide, overcoming the computational, memory, and authentication challenges. This framework is more suited for IoT scenarios where resource needs to be optimally utilized. Comprehensive security and performance analysis is conducted to demonstrate the suitability and effectiveness of the proposed hybrid security approach for IoT-HSs in contrast to the Blockchain-only or Holochain-only based approaches.

description: The possibility to produce superheavy elements in the course of low-yield nuclear explosions is analyzed within a simple kinetic model which includes neutron capture, gamma-emission, fission and particle evaporation from excited nuclei. We have calculated average numbers of absorbed neutrons as well as mass distributions of U and Cm nuclei exposed to an impulsive neutron flux, as functions of its duration. It is demonstrated that detectable amounts of heavy nuclei absorbing from 20 to 60 neutrons may be produced in this process. According to an optimistic scenario, after multiple beta-decay such nuclei may reach the long-living elements of the predicted ``island of stability''.

description: A new numerical method is presented to efficiently simulate the inelastic hard sphere (IHS) model for granular media, when fluid and frozen regions coexist in the presence of gravity. The IHS model is extended by allowing particles to change their dynamics into either a frozen state or back to the normal collisional state, while computing the dynamics only for the particles in the normal state. Careful criteria, local in time and space, are designed such that particles become frozen only at mechanically stable positions. The homogeneous deposition over a static surface and the dynamics of a rotating drum are studied as test cases. The simulations agree with previous experimental results. The model is much more efficient than the usual event driven method and allows to overcome some of the difficulties of the standard IHS model, such as the existence of a static limit.

description: The results of a numerical study of the magnetic dynamo effect in cylindrical von Kármán plasma flow are presented with parameters relevant to the Madison Plasma Couette Experiment. This experiment is designed to investigate a broad class of phenomena in flowing plasmas. In a plasma, the magnetic Prandtl number Pm can be of order unity (i.e., the fluid Reynolds number Re is comparable to the magnetic Reynolds number Rm). This is in contrast to liquid metal experiments, where Pm is small (so, Re>>Rm) and the flows are always turbulent. We explore dynamo action through simulations using the extended magnetohydrodynamic NIMROD code for an isothermal and compressible plasma model.We also study two-fluid effects in simulations by including the Hall term in Ohm's law. We find that the counter-rotating von Kármán flow results in sustained dynamo action and the self-generation of magnetic field when the magnetic Reynolds number exceeds a critical value. For the plasma parameters of the experiment, this field saturates at an amplitude corresponding to a new stable equilibrium (a laminar dynamo). We show that compressibility in the plasma results in an increase of the critical magnetic Reynolds number, while inclusion of the Hall term in Ohm's law changes the amplitude of the saturated dynamo field but not the critical value for the onset of dynamo action.

description: Software that cannot evolve is condemned to atrophy: it cannot accommodate the constant revision and re-negotiation of its business goals nor intercept the potential of new technology. To accommodate change in software systems we have defined an active software architecture to be: dynamic in that the structure and cardinality of the components and interactions are changeable during execution; updatable in that components can be replaced; decomposable in that an executing system may be (partially) stopped and split up into its components and interactions; and reflective in that the specification of components and interactions may be evolved during execution. Here we describe the facilities of the ArchWare architecture description language (ADL) for specifying active architectures. The contribution of the work is the unique combination of concepts including: a π-calculus based communication and expression language for specifying executable architectures; hyper-code as an underlying representation of system execution that can be used for introspection; a decomposition operator to incrementally break up executing systems; and structural reflection for creating new components and binding them into running systems.

Exploring the environmental worldviews and Leave No Trace awareness of rock climbers in Squamish
Creators: name: Byrd, Jason

description: The general theme of rock climbing is common, at its core it’s a physically active problem solving exercise with the goal of reaching the top of a three dimensional problem. Participants in this activity however, are not homogenous (Ryan et al., 2001; Hydler, 1999); the activity of climbing supports various subgroups that differ in style, training practices, required equipment, and, potentially environmental attitudes. Once seen as a fringe outdoor activity with limited opportunities, climbing is now ubiquitous in urban areas, leading to increased participation rates, which results in increased use of natural recreation resources and potential increased environmental impact where climbing takes place. This research project examines the variation of environmental worldviews and Leave No Trace awareness among rock climbers in Squamish, British Columbia. A sample of rock climbers (n = 466) at ten climbing locations in Squamish, and one climbing gym in Vancouver, British Columbia provided the respondents for this research project. First the climbers’ environmental worldviews and Leave No Trace Awareness are examined through three research questions: (RQ1) Do environmental worldviews and Leave No Trace awareness vary among climbing styles? (RQ2) Does recreation specialization predict environmental worldviews and Leave No Trace awareness among climbers? And, (RQ3) Does Leave No Trace awareness vary among climbers according to where they were introduced to the activity (i.e., outdoors or indoor climbing gym)? Further, the climbers’ support for recreation management in climbing areas is examined through: (RQ4) Is support for climbing management consistent across specialization levels and among climbing styles? The climbers’ social networks are examined with a final research question: (RQ5) Does network range influence the environmental worldviews of climbers? Recreation specialization was found to be the most significant predictor of a climber’s pro-environmental orientation, which is consistent with previous research. Whereas the climbers Leave No Trace ethics seem to be more a product of the historical use and management of local recreational resources. Additionally, the range of ties among climbing and outdoor professionals, environmental organizations, and the general climbing community were correlated with the development of biocentric worldviews among the respondents.

description: Η περιοχή των Πατησίων οικοδομήθηκε την ίδια περίοδο με την άνθιση του ελληνικού κινηματογράφου. Αυτό είχε σαν αποτέλεσμα η χρήση της κατοικίας να αναμειχθεί με ψυχαγωγικές δραστηριότητες λόγω του μεγάλου αριθμού κινηματογράφων που κατασκευάστηκαν εκείνη την εποχή στην περιοχή. Έτσι τα Πατήσια στη συλλογική μνήμη έχουν μείνει σαν προορισμός αναψυχής και περιπάτου και ο οδικός άξονας της Πατησίων σαν ένας μικρός παράδεισος για τους λάτρεις της έβδομης τέχνης. Στη σημερινή εποχή τα Πατήσια έχουν αλλάξει τελείως χαρακτήρα έχοντας χάσει σε μεγάλο βαθμό την αίγλη του προηγούμενου αιώνα. Είναι μια πυκνοκατοικημένη περιοχή με πολυώροφες πολυκατοικίες, ελάχιστους ανοιχτούς χώρους για τους κατοίκους και οριακά ανύπαρκτους χώρους αναψυχής και πολιτισμού.
Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η αναβίωση των προαναφερθέντων στοιχείων που έχουν χαθεί και παραμένουν στην συλλογική μνήμη των κατοίκων. Ως καταλληλότερη περιοχή μελέτης επιλέχθηκε το πάρκο Κλωναρίδη- Φιξ επί της οδού Πατησίων, στο οποίο υπήρχε η ομώνυμη ζυθοποιεία. Η εργασία εστιάζει στην δημιουργία ενός συνόλου που θα περιλαμβάνει δραστηριότητες πολιτισμού, αναψυχής και χώρους πρασίνου. Για την επίτευξη αυτού παρουσιάζεται ένα σύμπλεγμα στοιχείων που περιλαμβάνει μια Σχολή- Κέντρο Κινηματογράφου, ένα κτήριο φοιτητικών κατοικιών που θα καλύπτει τις ανάγκες της σχολής, την ανάπλαση του πάρκου, την αποκατάσταση και επανάχρηση της οικίας Κλωναρίδη καθώς και του προσκείμενου θερινού κινηματογράφου Α-Β. Τέλος στόχος του σχεδιασμού είναι αυτό το «πλέγμα» χρήσεων να λειτουργήσει παράλληλα σαν σύνολο και να αποτελέσει σημείο αναφοράς για την περιοχή προσελκύοντας επισκέπτες , να διασφαλίσει την ιστορική μνήμη και να αναβαθμίσει την περιοχή λειτουργικά, μορφολογικά και περιβαλλοντικά.

description: Context Standard celiac and hepatic arterial anatomy occur in approximately 60% of the patients; for the remaining, multiple variations have been described. A thorough knowledge of these anomalies is important in order to avoid unnecessary complications. In this report we describe one of the rarest arterial anomalies, a hepatomesenteric trunk supplying the liver. We attempt to elucidate its implications pertaining to the safe performance of a pancreaticoduodenectomy. Case report A 45-year-old male with a one-month duration painless progressive jaundice was evaluated and diagnosed as having a periampullary growth. Preoperative imaging did not suggest any arterial anomalies. Intraoperatively, the common hepatic artery was found to originate from the superior mesenteric artery. He underwent a pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with a meticulous dissection and preservation of the aberrant hepatomesenteric trunk. His postoperative period was uneventful and is doing well on follow up. Conclusion Variations in hepatic and celiac arterial anatomy are common, and may not get picked up on preoperative imaging. A high index of suspicion in every patient along with a precise knowledge of the normal anatomy and awareness of the aberrant anatomy is a sine qua non to the performance of a safe pancreaticoduodenectomy.

description: Context Lymphoepithelial cysts with sebaceous glands of the pancreas are extremely rare, with only 7 cases, including this case, published in English literature. Case report We herein present the case of a 67-year-old Asian man who underwent a resection of a lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas during the follow up care for lung cancer. Fourteen years previously he underwent a right lower lobectomy at the right segment nine for lung cancer. A 20 mm mass in the body of the pancreas was identified by CT scan 4 years ago, and the diagnosis was intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) at that time. Over a 5-year period, this mass grew to 42 mm without dilatation of the main pancreatic duct. The preoperative evaluation, including endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA), indicated a cystic neoplasm with suspicion of malignancy. Intraoperative frozen section revealed a squamous-lined cyst accompanied by sebaceous glands without any malignant findings. Following this pathological finding, resection of the cyst was performed. Consequently, microscopic examination revealed that it was a lymphoepithelial cyst with sebaceous glands of the pancreas. Conclusions Pancreatic lymphoepithelial cysts can be cured by conservative resection, but if they are asymptomatic and are diagnosed before surgery, no treatment is necessary. To our knowledge, this is the first ever published case of a lymphoepithelial cyst with sebaceous glands of the pancreas, which was found during the follow up care for lung cancer.

description: This paper explores the task of identifying the overall sentiment expressed towards volitional entities (persons and organizations) in a document -- what we refer to as Entity-Level Sentiment Analysis (ELSA). While identifying sentiment conveyed towards an entity is well researched for shorter texts like tweets, we find little to no research on this specific task for longer texts with multiple mentions and opinions towards the same entity. This lack of research would be understandable if ELSA can be derived from existing tasks and models. To assess this, we annotate a set of professional reviews for their overall sentiment towards each volitional entity in the text. We sample from data already annotated for document-level, sentence-level, and target-level sentiment in a multi-domain review corpus, and our results indicate that there is no single proxy task that provides this overall sentiment we seek for the entities at a satisfactory level of performance. We present a suite of experiments aiming to assess the contribution towards ELSA provided by document-, sentence-, and target-level sentiment analysis, and provide a discussion of their shortcomings. We show that sentiment in our dataset is expressed not only with an entity mention as target, but also towards targets with a sentiment-relevant relation to a volitional entity. In our data, these relations extend beyond anaphoric coreference resolution, and our findings call for further research of the topic. Finally, we also present a survey of previous relevant work.
