Quantitative analysis of single particle tracking experiments: applying ecological methods in cellular biology
DownloadFall 2010
Single-particle tracking (SPT) is a method used to study the diffusion of various molecules within the cell. SPT involves tagging proteins with optical labels and observing their individual two-dimensional trajectories with a microscope. The analysis of this data provides important information...

Refocusing the focus on adherence to antiretroviral therapy using a community-based participatory research approach
DownloadFall 2014
Adherence to antiretroviral therapy is critical to treatment success. Using an epidemiological and community-based participatory research approach, my thesis reports on two papers related to antiretroviral therapy success (and subsequent failure). My thesis also includes a third paper which...

Resonant drift echoes in electron phase space density produced by dayside Pc5 waves following a geomagnetic storm
Download2008
Rankin, Robert, Degeling, Alex W.
The interaction between relativistic, equatorially mirroring electrons and Pc5 Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) waves in the magnetosphere is investigated using a numerical MagnetoHydroDynamic (MHD) model for waves and a test-kinetic model for electron phase space density (PSD). The temporal and spatial...

Most crude oils contain traces of vanadyl porphyrins within their asphaltene fraction. Although these metals are only present in trace quantities, they have a significant detrimental impact on crude oil processing units; therefore, their selective removal is highly desirable. The current work...

The Effects of Culture on Conceptualizations of Leisure, Control, and Positive Affect Between Japanese and Canadian Undergraduate Students
DownloadSpring 2014
The purpose of this dissertation is to examine: (a) similarities and differences in conceptualizations of leisure between Japan and Canada and between two Japanese leisure-like terms: yoka and rejā (Study 1); (b) the effects of leisure participation on Japanese and Canadian undergraduate...

The intellectual structure and substance of the knowledge utilization field: A longitudinal author co-citation analysis, 1945-2004
Download2008
Lavis, J., Estabrooks, C.A., Derksen, L., Scott, S., Wallin, L., Profetto-McGrath, J., Winther, C.
Background: It has been argued that science and society are in the midst of a far-reaching renegotiation of the social contract between science and society, with society becoming a far more active partner in the creation of knowledge. On the one hand, new forms of knowledge production are...
