[2025 Honorable Mention] Pedagogies In The Flesh And Recovery Of Historical Memory From The Perspective Of A Salvadoreña, Janelle I. Martinez

Ethnic Studies Research Paper Award

My submission is a praxis paper. First, I explore the concepts and theories I would like to put into praxis, which are pedagogies in the flesh and recovery of historical memory. I then explain how and why I put them into praxis.

Do We Really Need A Femininemenon?: The Gendered Context Of Congress And Women’S Representation, Hannah Scholen

Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)

Does the changing gendered context of Congress affect women’s representation? The literature shows that women are more likely than men to prioritize and introduce issues that have a distinct impact on women, such as education and health, and that women’s power as a minority group changes when their numbers grow. With the growing number of women in Congress, it’s crucial to understand how that increase affects Congresswomen. I use the Center for Effective Lawmaking’s Legislative Effective Score methodology, focusing on the education and health Issue Area LES’, and run interaction regressions to study the relationship between gender and legislative effectiveness, …

Investigating The Role Of Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptor 3 In Ocular Surface Ion Transport And Fluid Secretion, Ethan Lindgren

Natural Sciences and Mathematics | Biological Sciences Master's Theses

Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial disease that drives tear film instability and hyperosmolarity, directly damaging the ocular surface epithelium. Lysophosphatidic acid receptor (LPAR) is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) responsible for Ca²⁺ and cAMP mobilization via PLC and adenylyl cyclase activation, respectively. LPAR signaling is involved in cell proliferation and wound healing in human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) as well as in neuropathic pain. This study aims to investigate expression and functional roles of LPAR3 in ocular surface. Ocular surface potential difference (OSPD) and tear fluid volume measurements were performed in mice with topically applied LPAR modulators. …

The National Labor Relations Act Patch Notes: Recent Changes To The Federal Employment Law Landscape, Its Impact On Esport Players, And What These Changes Indicate About The Future, Emet Mah

The Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship & the Law

This Note explores this possibility of esports players unionizing, and exercising their rights under the National Labor Relations Act. Part II provides background on the esport industry as a business and its evolution over time. Part III outlines some of the major issues affecting the esport industry, particularly focusing on the lack of player representation. Part IV examines the industry’s current use of player associations and will explore their shortcomings, prompting the need for formal unionization. Part V will cover the benefits of unionization and how esport players might come under the coverage of the NLRA.

Shackles Or Safeguards?: Tailoring Ndas And Noncompetes To Protect Interests Without Imposing Uniform Restraints, Nadia Brenden

The Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship & the Law

To better understand the implications of the FTC’s sweeping proposal and the need for a state-by-state approach, the following sections dive into the legal, historical, and comparative foundations of restrictive covenants, trace their evolution across jurisdictions, and explain why states—not federal agencies—are best positioned to strike the right balance. Part II provides an overview of legal doctrines governing the transmission of proprietary information, a history of the early applications of employment contracts, and a comparative analysis of international noncompete standards. Part III describes how different jurisdictions apply trade secret, contract, and employment law to protect business interests through enforceable agreements. …

Chemical Characterization And Comparative Analysis Of Alkyd Resins From Gossypium Hirsutum Seed Oil Using Maleic And Phthalic Anhydrides, Sulyman O. Ibrahim, Stephen Kenneth, Fatimah R. Abdulkadir, Abdulmumeen A. Hamid, Olamilekan J. Ibukun, Marili F. Zubair, Olubunmi Atolani

Sultan Qaboos University Journal For Science

Oilseeds are a significant source of raw materials for industry. Because of the overuse of edible fixed oil of plant origin in cosmetics, paints, and other manufacturing industries, the price of edible oils has increased, creating a considerable imbalance between the domestic and industrial markets. Local production of industrial intermediates such as alkyd resins is necessary to lessen import dependency. Alcoholysis methods were used to prepare alkyd resin from under-utilized seed oil of Gossypium hirsutum using maleic and phthalic anhydride. The prepared alkyd resins were characterized, and their physiochemical and chemical stability were compared to industrial grade commercial alkyd resin. …

Steamed Broccoli Sprouts Diet Alleviates Inflammatory Bowel Disease By Increasing Anti-Inflammatory, Antioxidant, And Gut Protective Metabolites In An Ulcerative Colitis Mouse Model, Tolu E. Alaba, Tao Zhang, Yanyan Li, Suzanne L. Ishaq

Pharmacy Faculty Scholarship

Background: Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable rich in bioactive compounds that may be beneficial against inflammatory bowel disease. However, an in-depth annotation and understanding of the metabolites and microbial interactions associated with the broccoli sprouts diet is necessary.

Methods: Specific pathogen-free C57BL/6 mice (male, 6 weeks old) were divided into four treatments: control diet; control diet with 2.5% DSS in water to induce symptoms of ulcerative colitis; 90% control diet plus 10% steamed broccoli sprouts; and 90% control diet/ 10% steamed broccoli sprouts plus 2.5% DSS in drinking water to induce symptoms. DSS treatment was cycled three times, with five …

Functionalizing Polyethersulfone Membranes: Using Nmr To Avoid Pitfalls When Using Uv-Induced Polymerization To 'Graft From' Surfaces, Priyanka Suresh, Megan M. Sibley, Amy C. Che, Christine E. Duval

Faculty Scholarship

For nearly 30 years, UV-induced free radical polymerization has been used to modify the surface chemistry of polyethersulfone (PES) membranes, films, and coatings. The initial mechanism for the grafting process was introduced in the 1990s and supported without direct evidence of covalent bond formation. Since then, claims of ‘grafting from’ membranes in the literature rely on similar evidence using a combination of gravimetry, attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy, contact angle goniometry, water sorption, and/or water permeance. While these techniques provide evidence of the presence of a polymer coating, they do not provide direct evidence of covalent bond formation between the …

Experimentally Driven Numerical Model Of Carbon/Polyaniline-Based Glucose Monitoring Sensors: An Evaluation Using A New Figure Of Merit, Kyrillos Selim, Ziad Khalifa, Amira Ali, Sameh O. Abdellatif

Electrical Engineering

This study presents an experimentally driven numerical model for evaluating carbon/polyaniline (PANI)-based glucose monitoring sensors (GMSs), focusing on innovative configurations using graphene-PANI and carbon nanotube (CNT)-PANI composites. We performed a thorough analysis of the morphological, electrophysical, and electrical properties of these materials, ultimately leading to the extraction of key electrical parameters for integration into a finite element model (FEM). This model simulates the entire sensor, enabling the estimation of critical performance metrics such as sensitivity, limit of detection (LOD), linearity, and power consumption. Our findings demonstrate that the CNT-PANI configuration significantly outperforms the laser-induced graphene (LIG)-PANI electrode, achieving a figure …
