The Legacy Of The Humoral Theory In Modern Culinary Tradition, Andrzej Kuropatnicki
The Legacy Of The Humoral Theory In Modern Culinary Tradition, Andrzej Kuropatnicki
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
The humoral theory, an ancient medical doctrine originating in Greece and championed by eminent physicians like Hippocrates and Galen, served as the cornerstone of medical understanding for millennia, preceding the emergence of modern medicine. This enduring theory postulated that an individual's health was intricately linked to the delicate balance of four bodily fluids or humours. Over the course of nearly two thousand years, it not only shaped medical practices but also profoundly influenced the choices people made regarding their diets and overall well-being. Its reach extended far beyond the realm of medicine, leaving an indelible mark on our culture and …
The Subconscious Of Traditional Practices: Turkish Cuisine, Serife Umay Cicik
The Subconscious Of Traditional Practices: Turkish Cuisine, Serife Umay Cicik
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Turkey stands out among the leading countries, particularly in the consumption of meat, milk, and dairy products. In terms of climate and physical conditions, it has the capacity to produce these commodities domestically. Additionally, it is situated in a geographically advantageous position rich in seafood resources. Turkish cuisine is further enriched by dishes and desserts prepared with dough. However, food preparation and cooking methods, equipment, storage conditions, presentation styles, consumption habits, spices, and sauces bear traces of various culinary cultures. Wars, natural disasters, political events, trade routes, and religious structures are among the factors that most significantly influence these differences. …
Lost But Not Found: Southern Appalachia, Migration Patterns, And Culinary Tourism, Ashli Q. Stokes, Wendy Atkins-Sayre
Lost But Not Found: Southern Appalachia, Migration Patterns, And Culinary Tourism, Ashli Q. Stokes, Wendy Atkins-Sayre
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Despite growing acknowledgement of the variety of cultures that developed Southern Appalachia’s cuisine, some popular food writing continues to highlight the so-called insular nature of its food, drink, and culinary festivals. Regional tourists, especially those visiting its Blue Ridge or Smoky mountains, also remain likely to experience a delimited, often problematic Scots-Irish or white-European pioneer past, including when they eat and drink. Billboards advertise the outlaw Hatfield and McCoy Dinner Show, visitors choose from moonshine tastings in dilapidated looking but new distilleries, and diners enjoy gourmet biscuits alongside gravy “flights” at trendy restaurants in Asheville, North Carolina. Appalachian Studies and …
Pork Problems - Embodied Britishisms Onboard The First Fleet To Australia, Evelyn Lambeth
Pork Problems - Embodied Britishisms Onboard The First Fleet To Australia, Evelyn Lambeth
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Pigs arrived in Australia with British settlers onboard the First Fleet in 1788 and rapidly spread. As a product of British Imperialism, Australia has adopted many cultural consumption practices from its parent colony. Meat is on many tables, but not every table showcases the same animal, and these cultural differences illustrate that conditions of edibility are not equally defined. British values were attached to pigs, embedding them with transformative abilities to shape colonial ecosystems. Australian industries, jobs, and livelihoods are deeply connected to the past. The East India Company introduced Chinese pigs to Britain from 1685. The history of pigs …

Insect Abundance And Richness Response To Ecological Reclamation On Well Pads 5–12 Years Into Succession In A Semi-Arid Natural Gas Field, Michael F. Curran, Jasmine Allison, Timothy J. Robinson, Blair L. Robertson, Alexander H. Knudson, Bee M. M. Bott, Steven Bower, Bobby M. Saleh
Extension Research
Natural gas extraction is a critical driver of the economy in western North America. Ecological reclamation is important to ensure surface disturbance impacts associated with natural gas development are not permanent and to assist native biota. Previous studies in semi-arid natural gas fields within Sublette County, Wyoming, USA have shown insects respond favorably to 1–3-year-old well pads undergoing reclamation compared to older successional reference vegetation communities dominated by Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata spp. Wyomingensis). Here, we examined well pads which were initially seed 5, 8, 10, 11, and 12 years prior to our study. We used a free, image-based …

Emotional Regulation On Modulating Associations Between Depression And Physical Activity As Characterized Via Deep Learning, Franklin Ye Ruan
Emotional Regulation On Modulating Associations Between Depression And Physical Activity As Characterized Via Deep Learning, Franklin Ye Ruan
Computer Science Senior Theses
Emotional regulation and physical activity are known to be associated with depression; however, a deeper understanding of how emotional regulation may strengthen or weaken the bonds between depressive symptoms and physical activity may aid clinicians and researchers in developing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for those adversely affected by depression. As part of the Tracking Depression Study, this analysis uses data collected from 306 participants diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder. To study their behavior, we analyze actigraphy data, or longitudinal physical activity intensity data, as it relates to depression severity, quantified by the daily PHQ-9 questionnaires. We study these associations through …

Department of Food Science and Technology: Faculty Publications
Dietary fiber supplements are a strategy to close the ‘fiber gap’ and induce targeted modulations of the gut microbiota. However, higher doses of fiber supplements cause gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms that differ among individuals. What determines these inter-individual differences is insufficiently understood. Here we analyzed findings from a six-week randomized controlled trial that evaluated GI symptoms to corn bran arabinoxylan (AX; n = 15) relative to non-fermentable microcrystalline cellulose (MCC; n = 16) at efficacious supplement doses of 25 g/day (females) or 35 g/day (males) in adults with excess weight. Self-reported flatulence, bloating, and stomach aches were evaluated weekly. Bacterial taxa …

BACKGROUND: The ketogenic diet (KD), based on high fat (over 70% of daily calories), low carbohydrate, and adequate protein intake, has become popular due to its potential therapeutic benefits for several diseases including cancer. Under KD and starvation conditions, the lack of carbohydrates promotes the production of ketone bodies (KB) from fats by the liver as an alternative source of metabolic energy. KD and starvation may affect the metabolism in cancer cells, as well as tumor characteristics. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of KD conditions on a wide variety of aspects of breast cancer cells …
Traditional Polish Roasted Duck From The "Dino" Supermarket: Politicizing And Negotiating Tradition Through Culinary Competitions For Rural Housewives' Clubs, Yuliia Andriichuk
Traditional Polish Roasted Duck From The "Dino" Supermarket: Politicizing And Negotiating Tradition Through Culinary Competitions For Rural Housewives' Clubs, Yuliia Andriichuk
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
The article describes how food practices and narratives associated with tradition can function as a tool for political propaganda. By organizing culinary competitions and festivals, local government offices and state institutions strive to unite potential voters under the common idea of cultivating Polish traditions. A group perfectly suited to this task seems to be Rural Housewives' Clubs, a widespread form of women's association in Poland. Despite the variety of tasks they perform in their villages, they are mainly associated with cooking and broadly understood tradition. Participating in such competitions is not only a good way to mobilize members and promote …

Traces Of Tradition: Exploring The “Food In Olden Times” Theme Within The Irish Folklore Commission Schools’ Collection 1937–39, Caitríona Nic Philibín
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Ireland’s rich folklore archives provide a wealth of insight into the memories of her people. The importance of recording oral history across Ireland in the late 1930’s spurred the Folklore Commission to establish the Schools’ Collection (SC). Essentially, the commission enlisted national school children, within the Irish Free State, to collect the memories of the their relatives and older people within their communities. The culmination of these efforts resulted in over 700,000 documents illuminating Ireland’s traditions, customs and practices. Analysis of the children’s findings reveals exciting local and regional traditions through the words of curious pupils discovering the food memories …
Caesar’S Cervisia, Travis Rupp
Caesar’S Cervisia, Travis Rupp
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Examinations of Roman cuisine often downplay the role of beer in the ancient Roman diet seeing it as a symbol of barbarity. This essay examines the plausibility of beer as a standard component of the Roman soldier’s diet and seeks to highlight when it may have become necessary for military advancement. Julius Caesar’s reliance on auxiliary forces to campaign in the North from 58-51 BCE ensured that cultures known for producing beer influenced legionary forces reliant on local resources to survive. This essay also asserts the implausibility of wine consumption amongst Caesar’s men and concludes that the acceptance of beer …
Butter Woman, Farmer’S Wife And Housewife Of The Year: Tracing Women In Ireland’S Domestic Food History, Gemma M. Carney
Butter Woman, Farmer’S Wife And Housewife Of The Year: Tracing Women In Ireland’S Domestic Food History, Gemma M. Carney
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
This article uses three distinct roles to sketch out the influence of women on Ireland’s domestic food history. Drawing on a range of primary and secondary sources including the Irish Butter Museum, the Irish Farmer’s Journal and qualitative interviews the article charts a course for tracing women’s integral role in the maintenance of food culture and traditions through a century of significant social and cultural change. As butter women, farmer’s wives, and housewives, women interacted with state and social structures in ways which demonstrate how patriarchal principles dominated Irish culture and society throughout the twentieth century. The paper concludes that …

Graduate Medical Education Research Journal
Background: Over 600,000 people in the United States (U.S.) have liver cirrhosis. It is estimated that 30% of patients with compensated cirrhosis and 60% of patients with decompensated cirrhosis will develop varices in their lifetime, with an incidence rate of new varices at 9% per year. Fifty percent of patients with esophageal varices will experience bleeding at some time. Pheochromocytoma is a rare catecholamine secreting adrenal gland tumor that occurs in 2-8 people per every 1 million people in the general population. Standard treatment for variceal bleeding includes endoscopic band ligation and/or radiologic embolization along with non-selective beta blockers. However, …
Life, Death, Salt: Salty Memories, Anne Meneley
Life, Death, Salt: Salty Memories, Anne Meneley
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
I explore how some of my childhood memories were inspired by salt and preserved by it, from Star Trek to salt and vinegar potato chips. Once so valued as to be considered “white gold”, in the era of the ultra-processed industrial food that dominates contemporary North American food, salt has become more like “white death.” (“Pass the white death” is a joking request for the salt shaker.) A road salt shortage during Toronto’s icy winter of 2018-2019 inspired a joke about how the mayor will be forced to use Toronto’s expensive, Himalayan table salts to ice the roads! In a …
Food As Learning At Airfield Estate – Living The Legacy, Aoibhín Moore Heslin, Eliza Sullivan, Kirstie Mcadoo
Food As Learning At Airfield Estate – Living The Legacy, Aoibhín Moore Heslin, Eliza Sullivan, Kirstie Mcadoo
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Food functions as a record of history, a conduit for science, a means of showcasing cultural identities, and a way to connect communities. This paper will aim to outline how the history and legacy of the Overend sisters is being adapted and drawn on to influence efforts in food education and food sustainability practices at Airfield Estate. In 1974, the sisters placed the Estate in trust to the people of Ireland on the condition that the space be used for recreation and education. Today, this has been reinterpreted to reflect modern challenges in food sustainability. Airfield Estate’s overall mission is …
The Memory Landscapes Of Food: The Sense Of Nostalgia And The Traces Of The Past In The Arbëreshë Microcosm Of Food And Feast, Elisa Pastorelli
The Memory Landscapes Of Food: The Sense Of Nostalgia And The Traces Of The Past In The Arbëreshë Microcosm Of Food And Feast, Elisa Pastorelli
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Referring to an ethnographic study of the arbëreshë community of Molise, this article explores the interplays between food, senses, and nostalgia to explain how food activates the involuntary memory of the eater and resists corrosion over time. On one hand, the evocative power of food allows the community to reproduce and pass on the culinary “landscape of memory” (Turri, 1998, 156). On the other side, bringing abundance industrialization has profoundly changed the value of food, generating a shift in sociability and ways of being together. So, the memory of past eating practices of commensality and conviviality cause a feeling of …
The Challenging Food Regionality In Lower Silesia: Between Nostalgia And Innovation, Mariusz Rybak
The Challenging Food Regionality In Lower Silesia: Between Nostalgia And Innovation, Mariusz Rybak
Dublin Gastronomy Symposium
Lower Silesia, Poland, is a region that experienced almost a total change of population after 1945. Often described as a region of uprooted people and without its own identity and traditions, the regionality of its food presents in fact a particular phenomenon of transplanted and re-invented traditions. Foods declared regional culinary heritage or traditions in the last few decades are mostly either those brought by the ancestors of today's Lower Silesians who migrated here, or traditions related to the place, re-created and carried on even without the population in which they originally evolved. Accordingly, regionality is defined by social or …
