Running Late: Exploring the Delayed Supermassive Black Hole Growth Seen by Hydro-Dynamical Simulations
(2020-04-27)
Despite the vast amount of processes that depend on the co-evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their host galaxies, their physical relationship is still not fully understood. Observations have revealed a ...
Embryonic Lethality in Mice Expressing Conditionally Stabilized Ctnnb1 Under Control of Vil-Cre
(2020-04-20)
Beta-catenin (CTNNB1) is a key downstream effector of the WNT signaling pathway, a pathway involved in embryonic development and tumorigenesis. To further study the role of CTNNB1 in gut tumorigenesis, mice homozygous for ...
Implementing Transfer Learning for Mitotic Cell Detection
(2020-04-21)
The primary objective of this project is to use a neural network (deep learning) model that will be trained on datasets of human cells in mitosis and then apply it on animal cells using transfer learning techniques. The ...
Improving Memory Management in the Linux Kernel
(2020-04-16)
In this research I intend to analyze the Linux OS memory management system for inefficient segments and work to improve the source code to decrease the inefficiency. This is primarily important due to the nature of the ...
Particle Detector for Low Energy Heavy Ions
(2020-04-20)
The purpose of this research is to build, calibrate and test a parallel-plate avalanche counter (PPAC) detector, which can be used to detect low energy heavy ion particles. This detector will enable Texas A&M to conduct ...
Pavlovian Conditioned Flight Responses in Rats are Conditioned by Threatening Contexts
(2020-04-08)
Humans and animals use environmental cues to determine appropriate defensive responses. Understanding the mechanisms of context-mediated fear responses is crucial, as the dysregulation of these processes are central to ...
Parent-Child Disagreement in Pediatric Medical Decision-Making
(2020-04-29)
Respect for patient autonomy is a fundamental principle of biomedical ethics. However, it holds relatively little weight in pediatric medicine, in which parents act as proxy decision-makers for their children. Challenges ...
Depth of the Cube: Insight into the Analysis of a Shared Form
(2020-05-29)
The cubic form has served as a foundation for the architectural discipline, spurring on countless projects throughout the ages. By collecting numerous examples of these projects, the developmental processes of each can be ...
Active-Routing: Parallelization and Scheduling of 3D-Memory Vault Computations
(2020-04-09)
In an age where big data is more available than ever, new high-bandwidth, low-latency memory technology, such as Hybrid Memory Cubes (HMC), have extended into the third dimension to tighten the increasing gap between memory ...
Comparison of Thiol-ene and Tetrazine Click Crosslinking of Gelatin Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering
(2020-04-13)
Chemically crosslinked gelatin hydrogels are popular biomaterials applied for uses such as 3D matrices for tissue engineering applications. Gelatin hydrogels can be chemically crosslinked using various reactions that fall ...
