Graphene-Conductive Polymer-Based Electrochemical Sensor For Dopamine Detection, Dipannita Ghosh, Md Ashiqur Rahman, Ali Ashraf, Nazmul Islam

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

The central nervous system's (CNS) dopaminergic system dysfunction has been linked to neurological illnesses like schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease. As a result, sensitive and selective detection of dopamine is critical for the early diagnosis of illnesses associated with aberrant dopamine levels. In this research, we have investigated the performance of electrochemical screen-printed sensors for different concentrations of dopamine detection using graphene-based conductive PEDOT: PSS(G-PEDOT: PSS) and Polyaniline(GPANI) inks on the working electrode and compared the sensitivity. SEM characterization technique has been performed to visualize the microstructures of the proposed inks. We have investigated cyclic voltammetry (CV) electrochemical techniques with ferri/ferrocyanide …

Important Role Of Precipitation In Controlling A More Uniform Spring Phenology In The Qinba Mountains, China, Jianhao Li, Jingyun Guan, Wangqiang Han, Ruikang Tian, Binbin Lu, Danlin Yu, Jianghua Zheng

Department of Earth and Environmental Studies Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works

Under global warming, the gradual pattern of spring phenology along elevation gradients (EG) has significantly changed. However, current knowledge on the phenomenon of a more uniform spring phenology is mainly focused on the effect of temperature and neglected precipitation. This study aimed to determine whether a more uniform spring phenology occurs along EG in the Qinba Mountains (QB) and explore the effect of precipitation on this pattern. We used Savitzky-Golay (S-G) filtering to extract the start of season (SOS) of the forest from the MODIS Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) during 2001-2018 and determined the main drivers of the SOS patterns …

Too Much Salt: Rejecting The Pass-Through Entity Tax As A Salt Deduction Cap Workaround, Timothy Gray Ingram

Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar

Historically, U.S. taxpayers have been able to deduct their state and local taxes from their federal taxable income. This changed with the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which introduced a $10,000 cap on the state and local tax (SALT) deduction. States have reacted by turning to various methods to mitigate the negative tax consequences of the cap for their residents, including workarounds that use the charitable contribution deduction or a payroll tax as a means to allow full deductibility of state and local taxes.

With the IRS striking down the charitable contribution workaround, and the …

Museums And The Metaverse: Emerging Technologies To Promote Inclusivity And Engagement, James Hutson, Piper Hutson

Faculty Scholarship

Over the past two decades, museums have increasingly sought to build connections with the community and increase inclusivity of visitors. At the same time, emerging technologies, such as extended reality (XR) and virtual museums (VM) are increasingly adopted to engage with different generational expectations but also for the purposes of supporting inclusivity and neurodiverse populations. First such technologies were adopted to augment exhibitions in the physical museum space for edutainment. Since then, XR has expanded from room-size environments (CAVEs) and augmented exhibitions to the creation of entire virtual museums, such as The Museum of Pure Form and The Virtual Museum …

Evolution Of Chemical-Cue-Mediated Antipredator Behavior In Threespine Stickleback Populations Experiencing Northern Pike Predation, Dale R. Stevens, Melissa A. Graham, Christina I. Bardjis, Susan A. Foster, John A. Baker, Kaitlyn A. Mathis

Biology

Human-mediated environmental challenges are severely impacting local and global levels of biodiversity. Phenotypic plasticity can play a major role in aiding population persistence because plasticity can buffer populations from novel challenges. Given this role, it is possible for the degree of plasticity to evolve rapidly as it may place phenotypes near, but not exactly on, an adaptive peak for the new environment. Here, we asked if behavioral plasticity evolves following the introduction of a novel predator. We measured behavioral responses of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) populations, with and without the introduced apex predator northern pike (Esox lucius), to three different …

Providing Optimal Nutritional Care To Patients With Long-Covid, Hernández Ya Tronco, L Anderson, L Weekes, A Julian, J Murphy, G Frost, M Hickson

School of Health Professions

Long-COVID has emerged as a relatively common condition with symptoms that vary considerably in intensity and type. People with long-COVID experience signs and symptoms that develop during or after an infection consistent with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), continue for more than four weeks and are not explained by an alternative diagnosis. It has been estimated that up to one in seven patients who have COVID-19 will have long-COVID. Long-COVID can affect people’s nutritional status, while optimal nutrition is essential for their recovery. The authors of this article have developed an evidence-based knowledge hub around nutrition and recovery from COVID-19 that …

The transformation of young men into falcons, and young women into mountain partridges, is particularly important in wedding songs.

From Scanner To Court: A Neuroscientifically Informed “Reasonable Person” Test Of Trademark Infringement, Zhihao Zhang, Maxwell Good, Vera Kulikov, Femke Van Horen, Mark Bartholomew, Andrew S. Kayser, Ming Hsu

Journal Articles

Many legal decisions center on the thoughts or perceptions of some idealized group of individuals, referred to variously as the “average person,” “the typical consumer,” or the “reasonable person.” Substantial concerns exist, however, regarding the subjectivity and vulnerability to biases inherent in conventional means of assessing such responses, particularly the use of self-report evidence. Here, we addressed these concerns by complementing self-report evidence with neural data to inform the mental representations in question. Using an example from intellectual property law, we demonstrate that it is possible to construct a parsimonious neural index of visual similarity that can inform the reasonable …

The role of combination chemotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) (ICI-chemo) over ICI monotherapy (ICI-mono) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains underexplored. In this retrospective study of 1133 NSCLC patients, treatment with ICI-mono vs ICI-chemo associate with higher rates of early progression, but similar long-term progression-free and overall survival. Sequential vs concurrent ICI and chemotherapy have similar long-term survival, suggesting no synergism from combination therapy. Integrative modeling identified PD-L1, disease burden (Stage IVb; liver metastases), and STK11 and JAK2 alterations as features associate with a higher likelihood of early progression on ICI-mono. CDKN2A alterations associate with worse long-term outcomes …

Fine-Scale Variability In Catch And Growth Rates Of Western Rock Lobsters (Panulirus Cygnus) Show Heterogeneous Life-History Parameters, A Miller, Jason How, Simon De Lestang, Brooke A. Gibbons, E Lester, M Navarro, J Fitzhardinge, Tim J. Langlois

Fisheries Research Articles

Context: The western rock lobster fishery is recognised to be conservatively managed, with breeding stock levels estimated to be at record levels over the past decade. Despite this, anecdotal reports from commercial fishers identified an area of unexpectedly low catches in the centre of the fishery and lobsters’ biogeographic distribution.

Aim: To confirm the presence of this suspected ‘low-catch’ zone and examine the variability in catch and growth rates of lobsters if identified.

Methods: This study conducted an intensive mark–recapture survey over 8 months to explore catch rate, density, movement and growth rates across this ‘low-catch’ zone and three comparable …
