The roles of Pbx and Meis TALE-class homeodomain transcription factors in vertebrate neural patterning
DownloadFall 2010
One of the major goals of developmental biology is to understand how specialized groups of cells arise from an initially unspecified cell population. The vertebrate hindbrain is transiently segmented along its anterior-posterior axis into lineage-restricted compartments called rhombomeres, making...

The World Bank and the Knowledge for Development (K4D) Initiative: A Post-Structuralist Investigation of the World Bank’s Attempts to Govern Global Development Knowledge
DownloadSpring 2011
In 1999, the World Bank launched the K4D initiative as part of its new development agenda. The Bank also established itself as the global development knowledge bank suggesting that these moves would yield more pro-poor development results. This thesis examines the Bank’s knowledge ventures and...

Through the Lens of the Youth: Exploring Culturally Relevant Physical Activity with a Northern Aboriginal Community Through Participatory Action Research
DownloadFall 2014
Guided by an overarching participatory action research framework, this research explored physical activity within the sociocultural context of northern Aboriginal communities. I worked in partnership with the Yellowknives Dene First Nation Community Wellness Program in the Northwest Territories,...

Transcriptional regulation of the zebrafish activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) gene
DownloadFall 2012
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID, encoded by Aicda) mediates affinity maturation of immunoglobulin genes. Early studies in mammals indicated that the transcription of Aicda was regulated by a number of transcriptional regulatory regions, including a B-cell specific enhancer in the...

Transcriptomic analysis of zebrafish prion protein mutants supports conserved cross-species function of the cellular prion protein; and zebrafish as a model for cisplatin induced ototoxicity and transition metals as potential ligands for Tlr4ba and Tlr4bb
DownloadFall 2021
The work presented in this thesis is split between two projects. The first utilises prp1 and prp2 knockout zebrafish to investigate physiological functions of the cellular prion protein (PrPC). The second builds upon the use of zebrafish as a model for hearing loss to confirm a role of toll-like...
