title: Linguistic and Cognitive abilities in Children with Dyslexia: A Comparative Analysis

description: <b>Introduction:</b> Dyslexia is a prevalent learning disorder that significantly affects the child population. It is often accompanied by deficits in language processes, cognition, and executive functioning, all of which are crucial for reading development. Children with dyslexia frequently exhibit difficulties in phonological processing, semantics, morphosyntax, and also in cognitive areas such as working memory, inhibition, planning, and attention. <b>Objective:</b> The primary objective of this study was to compare the linguistic, cognitive, and executive functioning abilities between children diagnosed with dyslexia and those with typical reading development. <b>Methodology:</b> A total of 120 children were selected and divided into two groups: the G-DYSLEXIA group (N=60), consisting of children diagnosed with dyslexia, and the G-CONTROL group (N=60), with typical reading development. Language, cognition, and executive functions were assessed using standardized tests: CELF-5, WISC-V, and ENFEN. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, independent samples T-tests, and Chi-square tests to compare the performance between these two groups. <b>Results:</b> The study revealed significant differences between the two groups in all dimensions assessed. Specifically, children with dyslexia showed markedly lower performance in linguistic, cognitive, and executive functioning measures compared to their peers with typical development. <b>Conclusion:</b> Children with dyslexia present a distinct clinical profile characterized by significant difficulties in language processing, cognition, and executive functions. These challenges interfere with their reading acquisition and academic performance, limiting their integration into educational environments and impacting their overall quality of life.

title: Advanced Spectroscopies for Investigating Electronic Properties and Charge Transfer Mechanisms in Graphene and Hybrid Interfaces

description: The advancement of science and technology is intrinsically tied to the development of innovative materials. These materials play a critical role in meeting the escalating demands for complex and high-performance devices. Consequently, there is a compelling need for thorough investigations into the physical, morphological, and electronic properties of solid-state semiconductors. These semiconductors hold significant potential for a wide range of applications, spanning from photonics and electronics to photovoltaics and sensing.
Within the context of this doctoral project, particular emphasis is placed on the rigorous exploration of advanced materials and interfaces, with a specific focus on interfaces involving graphene and nanostructured metal oxide semiconductors. In order to gain an in-depth understanding of these materials and their properties, a combination of cutting-edge spectroscopic techniques has been employed, encompassing conventional laboratory setups, high-intensity synchrotron radiation experiments, ultrafast laser pulse methodologies, and measurements conducted under operando conditions. This confluence of diverse experimental approaches culminates in a comprehensive characterization of the chemical systems under investigation.
By means of this integrative methodology, the static and dynamic responses of these materials can be addressed, including time-resolved electron transfer and charge transport processes, electronic properties of specific materials and interfaces, and interaction with target gas analytes.

title: Friedel-Craft and Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization for Membrane and Inorganic Nanoparticles

description: This dissertation explores various facets of polymer science, including methods for synthesis, control of polymer sequencing, organic-inorganic nanoparticle synthesis, and the application of polymer membranes. Chapter 1 provides an overview of polymer development, encompassing both chain growth and step growth polymerization methods, along with recent developments and advancements in the field. Additionally, it briefly outlines techniques for synthesizing organic-inorganic nanoparticles and its corresponding applications. In Chapter 2, attention is focused on the synthesis of polymeric membranes for alkaline exchange applications. A detailed examination of the structure-properties relationship is conducted by introducing membranes with varying percentages of charged groups. Furthermore, block copolymers are synthesized to enhance conductivity by facilitating the formation of ion channels. Comprehensive characterization techniques, including measurements of molecular weight, morphology, conductivity, and stability, are employed to validate the membranes' performance. Chapter 3 describes an intriguing discovery of through-space conjugation, exhibited by monomers and oligomers that were produced by acid-catalyzed Friedel-Craft hydroxylation of 1,4-disubstituted benzene and benzaldehyde derivatives. The compounds emit blue light under 300 nm UV irradiation, and the mechanism was explored through structural variation and experimental data analysis. Chapter 4 employs the spytag spycatcher method to modify polymer layers on a nanoparticle, enabling attachment of diverse functional proteins for tailored applications. Additionally, the chapter discusses the recycling of rare earth elements through the coating of magnetic nanoparticles with the protein LanM, facilitating the selective adsorption of these elements from waste streams, followed by their easy recovery under acidic conditions.

title: Functionalized Near-Infrared Cyanine Dyes for Fluorescence Imaging and Diagnostics

description: The utilization of fluorescent cyanine dyes that emit within the near-infrared window significantly enhances biological imaging due to enhanced light penetration and minimal background fluorescence. This thesis describes efforts to develop new classes of functionalized cyanine dyes for imaging and diagnostics. Chapter 1 provides an overview of cyanine dye structure and the major concepts underlying the rational design of bioresponsive fluorescent cyanine probes. The development of heptamethine cyanine probes for imaging hypoxic cancer cells is described in Chapters 2 and 3. A first generation probe (Chapter 2) included a reactive p-nitrobenzyl group that produced "turn on" fluorescence when it entered hypoxic cells. A second-generation version (Chapter 3) has additional appendages that optimize the probe photophysics for eventual operation in living subjects. The probe design in Chapter 4 is a functionalized cyanine dye with targeting ligands that enhance affinity for receptors on the surface of cancer cells in culture and within tumor spheroids. A comparison of mono- versus tri-valent targeting systems found the tri-valent version to exhibit greater cell imaging contrast. In Chapter 5, esterase-responsive near-infrared probes are harnessed for photodynamic therapy of cancer cells. One molecular platform was a heptamethine cyanine probe that showed dual activation of fluorescence and singlet oxygen production. A second esterase-responsive near-infrared probe was a derivative of 5-aminoevulinic acid and found to produce high amounts of protoporphyrin IX in cancer cells for more effective photodynamic therapy. Chapter 6 turns to the topic of fluorescence sensing and describes a fluorescent ratiometric supramolecular tandem assay for detecting phosphatase and phytase enzymes. The study capitalizes on the selective binding of a calixpyridiniumn quencher molecule to a polyanionic pyrene fluorophore with no binding to a cationic near-infrared pentamethine cyanine. The three-component system enabled the creation of ratiometric fluorescence enzyme assays that detected the presence of alkaline phosphatase and phytase.
