CHILDREN’S MEMORY FOR PAIN: EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE ROLE OF ANXIETY IN CHILDREN’S PAIN MEMORIES AND THE INFLUENCE OF PAIN MEMORIES ON SUBSEQUENT PAIN EXPERIENCE
(2012-05-31)Children are often required to repeatedly undergo painful medical procedures (e.g. immunizations) and their memories for pain are predictive of their health behaviours across the lifespan. ... -
A Chilling Embrace : Workholding With Ice
(2012-03-27)This thesis explores the usage of ice as a fixturing medium in CNC machining of fragile components. Ice is used both as an adhesive and a potting compound to hold and support work during cutting. Measurements of ice adhesion ... -
CHINA's FUTURE ECONOMIC GROWTH STRATEGY: EXPORTS and/or DOMESTIC DEMAND?
(2011-07-22)This thesis examines China's future growth strategy. During the last 20 years, an export-oriented strategy has led to significant economic growth. However, with increases in labor costs and appreciation of the RMB, China ... -
China's Role in African Integration
(2021-08-30)China has surpassed the United States to become the largest source of development finance in Africa. China boasts a policy of non-interference in the national affairs of foreign countries, but their investment in African ... -

Chronic Noise Exposure has Context-dependent Effects on Nestling Stress Physiology in Tree Swallows (Tachycineta bicolor)
(2020-04-14)Anthropogenic noise is increasing in intensity and scope, resulting in changes to acoustic landscapes and largely negative effects on a range of species. In birds, noise can mask acoustic signals used in a variety of ... -
CHRONIC, MULTI-GENERATIONAL EXPOSURE TO LOW DOSES OF IMIDACLOPRID: ITS EFFECTS ON CHEMICAL PRECONDITIONING AND MUTATION INDUCTION IN NICOTINIC ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTORS IN MYZUS PERSICAE (HEMIPTERA: APHIDIDAE)
(2016-12-19)Hormesis is a phenomenon whereby exposure to low or sublethal doses of a chemical, physical, or biological stressor stimulate or enhance biological processes in an organism. Hormesis is an evolutionarily conserved process ... -
The Chronicle of Current Events and the Soviet Human Rights Movement

(2015-05-04)The Beaufort Formation (BF) braided river deposit contains exceptionally well-preserved logs, leaves, peat, insects, and vertebrate fossils that provide key evidence for Arctic environmental conditions during the Pliocene. ... -
The circadian clock of the Drosophila melanogaster eye regulates morning anticipation and is selectively linked to the circadian neuronal network
(2023-11-23)How multiple circadian clocks within the circadian neuronal network (CNN) converge to regulate behaviour remains elusive. Circadian behaviour is an organism’s response to environmental cues (e.g., day/night cycles), regulated ... -
CIRCADIAN NEURONS COMMUNICATE ACROSS DISTINCT REGIONS OF THE DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER BRAIN TO INSTRUCT ASPECTS OF BEHAVIOR
(2024-08-26)The molecular mechanisms that govern behaviour are not well understood. Study of circadian behavior can offer insight while avoiding the complex process of learned behaviour. Circadian behaviors are rhythmic behavioural ... -
