P-Generating Polynomials and the P-Fractal of a Graph
(2014-08-19)We define the P -generating polynomial for a graph G and property P as the generating polynomial for the number of P-subgraphs of G of each size. This polynomial is a generalization of the independence polynomial and so ... -
p26 Knockdown Modifies the Diapause Proteome of Artemia franciscana
The brine shrimp, Artemia franciscana, produces diapausing embryos (cysts), in which biological processes are arrested. Cysts are an excellent model for studying the regulation of diapause because they remain in this state ... -
THE P53-NMNAT2 FEEDBACK REGULATORY LOOP: MECHANISMS UNDERLYING P53 ACTIVATION
(2012-11-20)The tumor suppressor p53 acts as a master transcription factor that controls hundreds of effecter genes in response to various cellular stresses. The flexibility of p53 to regulate its target genes with distinct functions ... -
Pacifism and The Great War in Dame Rose Macaulay's Three Days
The First World War is often remembered today for muddy trenches, large-scale slaughter and bitter, shell-shocked veterans. This incomplete, but popular picture is largely inspired by the poetry and prose written during ... -
Pain catastrophizing in athletic individuals: Scale validation and clinical application.

The Pains of Labour: How the Commodification of Nursing is Costing the Lives of Mothers in the Philippines
The Philippines, as the largest exporter of nurses, faces challenges in its own maternal health needs. The Philippines has enormous capacity to train nurses, yet few ever care for maternal health needs in domestic communities ... -
PALLADIUM-CATALYZED AMINE SYNTHESIS: CHEMOSELECTIVITY AND REACTIVITY UNDER AQUEOUS CONDITIONS
(2012-04-26)The palladium-mediated cross-coupling of aryl electrophiles and amines (Buchwald-Hartwig amination) has become a widely used method of constructing arylamine frameworks. A crucial aspect of the advancement of this chemistry ... -
PALLIATIVE SUPPORT BY EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES FOR PERSONS AT THE END OF LIFE: A POPULATION BASED ANALYSIS OF NEED
(2015-04-02)Emergency Medical Services (EMS) are often involved in providing care to individuals at the end of life. Despite this, the development of EMS palliative support has been limited. This thesis utilized a linked administrative ... -

Paramedic Clinical Decision Making
(BMC Emergency Medicine, 2009-09-21)Paramedics are responsible for the care of patients requiring emergency assistance in the out of hospital setting. These health care providers need to make many decisions during the course of an emergency call. This thesis ... -
Parameter Estimation for Nonlinear State Space Models
(2012-04-24)This thesis explores the methodology of state, and in particular, parameter estimation for time series datasets. Various approaches are investigated that are suitable for nonlinear models and non-Gaussian observations ... -
Parameter, State and Uncertainty Estimation for 3-dimensional Biological Ocean Models
(2012-08-23)Realistic physical-biological ocean models pose challenges to statistical techniques due to their complexity, nonlinearity and high dimensionality. In this thesis, statistical data assimilation techniques for parameter and ... -
