Cognitive Dissonance At Dartmouth College: Measuring Student’S Openness To Politically Incongruent Ideas, Jase A. Davis, Kristen Hinckley
Cognitive Dissonance At Dartmouth College: Measuring Student’S Openness To Politically Incongruent Ideas, Jase A. Davis, Kristen Hinckley
Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science
Do the psychological theories of cognitive dissonance and selective exposure have bearing on how students at Dartmouth engage with news? Are students less likely to consume politically charged materials that they disagree with? Results from a true randomized survey administered to all undergraduates at the College in the classes of 2017 and 2018 found that Democrats at Dartmouth are less likely to engage with news that contradicts their political beliefs at a statistically significant level. Republicans, however, were more likely to engage with politically disagreeable news, but not at a statistically significant level.

Uncertain Influences: Genetics, Pathology, And Alzheimer’S Disease, Sumita M. Strander
Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that primarily affects individuals above the age of 65 and is often associated with memory loss, one of its chief symptoms. Although it was first discovered by Alois Alzheimer in 1906, AD has only recently garnered attention proportionate to the impact it is expected to have as the world’s population ages at increasing rates. Despite the certainty of this its importance, there is much the medical and scientific communities do not know about the etiology of this disease. This paper will discuss a few of the reasons for this lack of knowledge …

Lyme Disease: An Influential Outdoor Hazard, Kevin Kang
Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science
Lyme disease is an important, common illness in New England. A relatively new illness, it was discovered about forty years ago in the town of Lyme, Connecticut. Now, it has become the most common vector-transmitted illness in the United States, with over 30,000 cases annually. Lyme disease arises when a bacterium is transmitted to a human via deer tick bite, so those of us involved in outdoor sports are most likely to contract the disease. Inhabitants of New England and the northeastern U.S. are most vulnerable to the disease, as 95% of Lyme Disease cases occur in only 14 out …
Towards Simulating The Human Brain, Logan T. Collins
Towards Simulating The Human Brain, Logan T. Collins
Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science
The human brain has been described as “the most complex object in the universe.” Its meshwork of 86 billion neurons,84 billion glial cells, and over 150 trillion synapses may seem intractable. Nonetheless, efforts to comprehensively map, understand, and even computationally reproduce this structure are underway. Large collectives of researchers have come together, working in concert towards these goals. The Human Brain Project (HBP) and its precursor, the Blue Brain Project, have spearheaded the brain simulation goal.Some other notable organizations include the China Brain Project, the BRAIN Initiative. On a scale which parallels the space program and the Human Genome Project, …
Satellite Imagery-Based Monitoring Of Archaeological Site Damage In The Syrian Civil War, Jesse Casana, Elise Jakoby Laugier
Satellite Imagery-Based Monitoring Of Archaeological Site Damage In The Syrian Civil War, Jesse Casana, Elise Jakoby Laugier
Dartmouth Scholarship
Since the start of the Syrian civil war in 2011, the rich archaeological heritage of Syria and northern Iraq has faced severe threats, including looting, combat-related damage, and intentional demolition of monuments. However, the inaccessibility of the conflict zone to archaeologists or cultural heritage specialists has made it difficult to produce accurate damage assessments, impeding efforts to develop mitigation strategies and policies. This paper presents results of a project, undertaken in collaboration with the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR) and the US Department of State, to monitor damage to archaeological sites in Syria, northern Iraq, and southern Turkey using …
