“It’S Not Just Cost”: Barriers To Mammography Screening Access Among Low-Income Women In The United States—A Scoping Review, Julia Messerman, Callia Nickels, Nigel C. James

Health Studies Faculty Publications

Despite the recognized importance of early detection, disparities in mammography access persist among low-income women in the United States. While financial barriers are often emphasized, less is known about how multiple barriers interact to shape access to screening. We conducted a scoping review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines to synthesize evidence on barriers to mammography access among low-income women in the United States. A systematic search of PubMed, CINAHL, and Google Scholar identified peer-reviewed studies published between 2010 and 2025, of which 47 met inclusion criteria. Extracted barriers were categorized into …

Vision Transformers And Convolutional Neural Networks For Land Use Scene Classification, Arun D. Kulkarni

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

Land use scene classification (LUSC) from remote sensing imagery plays a critical role in environmental monitoring, urban planning, and sustainable resource management. In recent years, deep learning methods have significantly advanced the state-of-the-art, with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) dominating the field because of their strong ability to capture local spatial features. However, the emergence of Vision Transformers (ViTs) has introduced a new paradigm that models long-range dependencies through self attention mechanisms, potentially enabling improved global context understanding. This study presents a comparative assessment of Vision Transformers and CNN-based architectures for remote sensing land use scene classification. Representative CNN models, such …

Popejoy, Deborah Cragun, Megan C. Roberts, Lisa M. Bendz, Sarah Gonzales, Susanne B. Haga, R Ryanne Wu, Natasha J. Petry, Laura Ramsey, Ryley Uber, Kaniz Momin, Nina R. Sperber

Manuscripts, Articles, Book Chapters and Other Papers

Background: Pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing could identify actionable drug-gene interactions, reducing the risks of inappropriate prescribing of certain medications in some patients. An area of growing public health concern is rising global rates of depression and antidepressant use over the last two decades. Prior research has elucidated perspectives of healthcare providers who prescribe antidepressants regarding the clinical utility of genetic information, including PGx testing, but there is a gap in understanding how individual perspectives and systemic contextual factors may combine to influence PGx testing adoption. Objective: The objective of this study was to elucidate combinations of individual and contextual …

Should We Flee? The Mortality And Economic Impacts Of Hurricane Evacuation Orders, Lucas Kaplan

Center for Policy Research

I estimate the mortality and county-level regional economic impacts of hurricane evacuation orders using a novel instrumental variables framework. Relative to similarly affected but non-evacuated areas, evacuated counties experience fewer deaths but lower personal income, employment, and business establishments into the second year following the storm, likely stemming from delayed returns in wealthier neighborhoods. I then develop a threshold decision rule that balances the mortality benefits against these persistent economic costs and apply this framework to orders issued from 2016–2022. Incorporating these persistent economic costs alters policy evaluation: the largest orders generate net benefits that dwarf their costs, but the …

Intermembrane Coupling Between Bcl-Xl And The Ip3 Receptor Supports Local Ca2+ Transfer At Er-Mitochondrial Contacts, Arijita Ghosh, David Weaver, Chi Li, György Hajnóczky

Department of Pathology, Anatomy, and Cell Biology Faculty Papers

Bcl-xL, an anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family protein, engages laterally with Bak/Bax in the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) to inhibit apoptosis and interacts with the IP₃ receptor Ca²⁺ channels (IP3Rs) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane to control Ca²⁺ release. It is unknown if OMM-localized Bcl-xL can also interact in trans with IP3Rs at ER-mitochondrial contacts to form a tethering complex that supports IP3R-mediated local Ca²⁺ transfer from ER to mitochondria. We establish that IP3R-mitochondria Ca²⁺ signal propagation depends on Bcl-xL. By targeting Bcl-xL specifically to different subcellular compartments, we find that OMM-localized Bcl-xL increases the efficacy …

This fact sheet focuses on the 10 Mountain West cities that ranked within the top 50 and their corresponding 5-year population growth rate, median household income, annual cost of living for both homeowners and renters, and the leftover savings available at the end of the year for …

Emergent De Sitter Expansion And Closed Topology From The Cosmic Fabric Model As An Open Thermodynamic System: Resolving The Negative Bulk Modulus Paradox, T G. Tenev, C B. Ward, T F. Tenev, M F. Horstemeyer

Faculty Publications and Presentations

The Cosmic Fabric Model establishes a continuum-mechanics isomorphism to General Relativity by representing physical space as an elastic three-dimensional hyperplate embedded in a four-dimensional spatial bulk. Reproducing vacuum kinematics requires a vanishing P-wave modulus, which in turn implies a negative bulk modulus—an apparent thermodynamic instability in a closed system. This paradox is resolved by recasting the framework as an open system: the instability is not pathological but instead drives cosmic expansion. In this interpretation, the observable universe is a lower-energy solid formed through continuous solidification from a higher-dimensional precursor fluid. Using multiplicative kinematics from finite-growth mechanics, the model shows that …

When Herstory Goes Viral: Popular Resistance In The State-Platform Nexus In China, Qingyue Sun, Runze Ding

Interdisciplinary Studies

This article examines the rise of herstory content on Douyin to explore how feminist resistance takes shape within China’s platform environment. Drawing on digital ethnography, we develop the concept of popular resistance, a form of platform-mediated resistance whose popularity serves both as a condition of political traction and as a mechanism of containment. To clarify this duality, we identify two dimensions: (a) popularity on the platform, driven by trends, aestheticization, and commodification; and (b) popularity within orthodoxy, shaped by state-sanctioned values that render certain forms of feminist expression politically permissible. Popular resistance retains a critical, if slippery, edge. It gives …

Cracking The Code: The Systematic Development Of A Coding Matrix For Qualitative Data Analysis, Greta Gray, Marie-Christine Potvin

Department of Occupational Therapy Faculty Papers

A systematic approach was used to develop a coding matrix for a qualitative study with the intent to strengthen the credibility and dependability of the findings. Coding matrixes are commonly used in qualitative studies to organize data into meaningful units of text to be interpreted by the researchers. Current methods of coding matrix development can be problematic as they may introduce biases in the results and have limited reproducibility. A novel approach was employed to address this need with the “a priori” development of a coding matrix using a multi-step deductive and inductive process with multi-coders (n=5).  The coders who …

"It Doesn't Matter Where Ocd Comes From," Or Does It?, Caitlin M Pinciotti, Ryan J Mccarty, Gabriella T Ponzini

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Purpose of review: This review critically evaluates the claim that etiology is not relevant to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Research on the clinical presentation and treatment outcomes associated with traumatic/stressor and biological etiologies is presented.

Recent findings: The extant literature demonstrates varying clinical utility across the reviewed etiologies. Traumatic/stressor etiologies show the most consistent and robust evidence of clinical utility, demonstrating compelling associations with clinical presentation and treatment outcomes, while also being amenable to existing evidence-based approaches. Medical conditions (e.g., Pediatric Acute onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) and neurobiological factors also demonstrate considerable associations with OCD presentation, yet …

Mll3 And Mll4 Sustain Hematopoietic Stem Cell Multipotency By Opposing A B-Cell Default State, Helen C Wang, Ran Chen, Wei Yang, Rohini Muthukumar, Tingting Hu, Riddhi M Patel, Emily B Casey, Elisabeth Denby, Run Zhang, Guojia Xie, Kai Ge, Grant A Challen, Jeffrey J Bednarski, Jeffrey A Magee

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and multipotent progenitors (MPPs) are sustained by networks of transcription factors and epigenetic regulators that prime lineage-specific programs yet maintain multipotency. Two epigenetic regulators, MLL3 and MLL4, play important but distinct roles in maintaining this balance. MLL3 promotes HSC differentiation, whereas MLL4 opposes differentiation. These activities are essential for both normal homeostasis and leukemia suppression, yet it is not clear how MLL3 and MLL4 regulate HSC and MPP gene expression to control HSC/MPP fate decisions. To resolve these mechanisms, we performed an extensive series of single-cell genomic studies after conditionally deleting Mll3, Mll4 or both genes …
