Between the Medina and the Metropole: Race & Urban Planning from Algiers to Paris (1930-75)
(2011-09-06)
This dissertation analyses the endurance of colonial logics of assimilation and cultural segregation in contemporary urban France by connecting them with their origins in colonial Algeria. French urban planning and policy ...
Being Aquifex aeolicus: Untangling a hyperthermophile's Checkered Past
(2012-01-03)
Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is an important factor contributing to the evolution of prokaryotic genomes. The Aquificae are a hyperthermophilic bacterial group whose genes show affiliations to many other lineages, including ...
AN INVESTIGATION OF FUNCTIONAL MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING ACTIVATION IN WHITE MATTER AT 4 TESLA
(2012-07-25)
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive technique that
allows for visualization of active brain regions. Although white matter (WM) constitutes
approximately 50% of brain tissue, fMRI activation ...
Use of Online Monitoring Instrumentation for Coagulation Optimization
(2014-12-11)
Maintenance of optimal water treatment plant (WTP) performance in the presence of rapidly changing raw water quality (e.g. rainfall events and snowmelts) has been shown to be challenging for coagulation/flocculation based ...
Development of an Experimental Device For Monitoring Frost Heave in Soils
(2013-06-24)
The goal of this research is to develop a laboratory freeze cell and experimental methods to monitor frost heave in soil samples. This will allow the ability to identify the mechanisms of ice lens formation under ...
Open [Architecture] School
(2013-04-05)
The thesis will propose a decentralized building type for the contemporary development of urban architecture schools. The largest component of architecture education left out of universities at present is the ability for ...
Molecular studies on the evolution and diversity of aerobic halophilic archaea.

A STUDY ON THE GROWTH AND METABOLIC ACTIVITY OF STREPTOMYCES VENEZUELAE
(2010-09-09)
The bacteria Streptomyces venezuelae produce the novel antibiotic jadomycin. The study of growth characteristics and metabolic behavior of the bacteria are necessary to scale up antibiotic production and facilitate further ...
SPATIAL POINT PROCESS ANALYSIS OF AT SEA SEAL ENCOUNTERS
(2011-12-16)
We consider a data set comprising encounters between gray seals off Sable
Island in the autumn of 2009. We apply Spatial Point Pattern data analysis
approaches to this data set and demonstrate the effectiveness of ...
Mechanisms of short term and long term memory in cortex: Neural fields and synaptic plasticity.
