When Pedagogy Walks: Place, Art, Higher Education (Abstract and Citation only)

Brown, Adrienne

Originally planned as a place-based and pedagogical study that intended to inquire with Chinese art and design students in Hunan province, the study was necessarily redesigned and repositioned to accommodate a practice-based inquiry impacted by the pandemic and its associated restrictions. The more-than-human presence...

Structure and dynamics of ionic fluids across broad temperature regimes

Borah, Bichitra

For ionic liquids, the central goal of my work is to understand how structural heterogeneity and molecular organization evolve on cooling toward the glass transition and how these changes affect dynamics. In phosphonium ionic liquids, combined molecular dynamics simulations, NMR, and scattering analyses reveal that pol...

The economic burden of non-communicable diseases in Nigeria: Evidence from the COVID-19 era

Odunyemi, Adelakun Edward E

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) impose a significant economic burden on households in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Nigeria's health system vulnerabilities, compounded by COVID-19, have worsened the economic burden for NCD-affected households. Methods: A scoping review was undertaken to synthes...

The influence of relative sun exposure on sunscald susceptibility, peel metabolism, and storage outcome of 'Granny Smith' apples

Mendoza, Manoella Cabral

Although sunlight is crucial for optimal apple production, excessive sun exposure can negatively impact appearance and alter fruit quality and metabolism. ‘Granny Smith’ is notably prone to sunscald, a sun stress-related postharvest disorder that manifests as the superficial darkening of the peel, rendering the fruit u...

Understanding piRNA Biogenesis and Function in the Lepidopteran Ovarian Germ Cell Line Hi5

Bagci, Ayca

ABSTRACT In animals, reproductive fitness depends on PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), small RNAs that silence transposable elements, thereby maintaining genomic stability. Several Lepidopteran cell lines derive from germ cells and produce piRNAs. The genome of Hi5 cells, an immortalized germ cell line from Trichoplusia...

Indigenous missionaries and the making of Christianity in the Middle Belt of Nigeria, 1841-1960

Lamak, Kefas

Much scholarship in religious studies articulates the view that Christianity is essentially a European and later Euro-American religion that invaded countries in West Africa during the colonial period largely in order to dominate the region’s populations and extract the countries’ resources. This narrative depicts the...

Total Synthesis of Sactipeptides via Markovnikov Hydrothiolation of Dehydroamino Acids

Zhang, Yiwei

The second chapter focuses on the development of a general catalytic Markovnikov hydrothiolation of dehydroamino acids. A Brønsted acid-catalyzed intermolecular hydrothiolation platform was developed to selectively access thioaminoketal products from dehydroamino acid substrates and thiol nucleophiles. Mechanistic stud...

On the Margins of Humanity: Humanitarianism, Displacement, and the Politics of Recognition among Displaced Yezidis

Kooraei Oliaei, Houman

The attacks carried out in the Shingal Region of northern Iraq by the so-called Islamic State uprooted almost the entire Yezidi community from their homeland in 2014. Most Yazidis sought refuge in Iraqi Kurdistan, an autonomous region in northern Iraq. In my dissertation, I trace the lived experiences and quotidian del...

Uncovering a novel role for junctophilin-1 in cardiac dyad architecture and calcium handling

Ciampa, Grace

In chapter 2 of this thesis, I identify JP1 as a previously unrecognized regulator of cardiomyocyte structure, where it interacts with dystrophin and preserves dyad alignment at the Z-line, emphasizing its nonredundant role in maintaining dyad ultrastructure. I first explore the localization and mRNA and protein expres...

Mechanisms of Heterochromatin Regulation by HP1 Proteins and the Chromatin Remodeler Mit1

Seman, Melissa

Heterochromatin is a specialized form of chromatin defined by histone H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me), which promotes transcriptional repression and drives spatial compartmentalization within the nucleus. A central effector of this silenced chromatin state is the conserved family of Heterochromatin Protein 1 (HP1) pro...
