Interplay between Staphylococcus aureus and the murine host during bacterial bloodstream infection

Hommes, Josefien Wouterina

Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections are a major cause of sepsis and are associated with mortality rates approaching 20% in Canada. Treatment is challenging as the bacteria form an intracellular reservoir within Kupffer cells, the macrophages in the liver, resulting in long treatment periods and high recurrence...

Produktion und Stabilität von BAR-bodies: Optimierung und funktionelle Validierung

Wagner, Roman Baptist

Understanding community-dwelling older adult nutrition in western Newfoundland: from research to resource development

Pittman, Dawn Laura

Background: Older adults in western Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) face significant nutritional challenges shaped by an aging population, high rates of chronic disease, geographic isolation, economic insecurity, and limited access to fresh, affordable foods. Purpose: Despite the well-established relationship between nu...

Validation of CK1 specific small molecule inhibitors in glioblastoma cell lines and in the zebrafish model

Kuchelmeister, Lena

Casein Kinase 1 (CK1) and Cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) are two protein kinases that have received increasing attention in cancer research due to their roles in important cellular processes and tumor progression. CK1 is a serine/threonine kinase that is involved in the regulation of cellular signaling pathways, incl...

Enhancing gender equality in research and innovation: Climate adaptation and soil fertility management strategies for women cocoa farmers in Ghana

Buabeng, Kwabena

Ghanas Kakaosektor ist für Lebensunterhalt, Exporteinnahmen und ländliche Entwicklung von zentraler Bedeutung, sieht sich aber zunehmenden Bedrohungen durch sinkende Bodenfruchtbarkeit und Klimaschwankungen ausgesetzt. Diese Herausforderungen sind nicht geschlechtsneutral: Kakaobäuerinnen haben ungleichen Zugang zu Lan...

Serious games in teaching computer programming: usage and evaluation

Abdelbaset Jamal Abdellatif

Several problems occur in higher education computing schools, such as the high attrition and failure rates and the difficulties in teaching computer programming modules. Numerous solutions were proposed to minimise and/or overcome these problems. Yet, the problems weren’t solved. The focus was on the programming module...

Resource management for Edge computing systems

Nan Wang 0009

Current computing techniques using the Cloud as a centralised server will become untenable as billions of devices get connected to the Internet. This will lead to the degradation of the Quality-of-Service (QoS) of Cloud-hosted applications. Recently Edge computing is proposed as a potential solution, which leverages co...

The synthesis of nearest neighbour compliant quantum circuits

Leo Rogers

Quantum computers are reaching the size necessary to begin to perform useful tasks, however they are still limited by noise. One source of this noise is the error rate of the physical gates the processor uses. This means that when compiling high level quantum programs into executable code, it is vitally important to mi...

Using Reinforcement Learning in Solving Exam Timetabling Problems

Kehan Han

There is increasing interest in the area of research involving automated technologies for solving problems. High generality and ease of reusability have become a major goal in the development of Search methodologies within automation. One search method that meets these requirements is the hyper-heuristic. A hyper-heuri...
