"Mama, You Ever Think about Another Life?": Black Slave Girls and Women Fight for and Claim Their (Afro) Future
(2020)Afrofuturism is an ideological movement that "draws strength and inspiration from the past" to "imagine Black worlds and identities differently," positing hope and confidence in the existence of better futures. Applied as ... -
Mapping Neuronal Connectivity with Laser Photostimulation & Calcium Imaging
(2014)One of the most elusive goals in modern neuroscience is to determine how neurons in the brain are connected – a connectivity map is essential for understanding how the brain works. To address this goal, many methods have ... -
Maximizing Resource Utilization through Occupancy Detection
(2019)This project enhances an existing mobile application, the TCNJ Library App, by equipping all library study rooms with Passive Infrared Sensors (PIR) and Raspberry Pis (RPI) that connect to a backend server and database. ... -
Maximum Parsimony Advances for Native Phylogenetic Stemmatics
(2015)Our ultimate aim is to design an algorithm that generates the most parsimonious tree where extant texts may be ancestors of other texts. The algorithm accepts a set of extant manuscripts or a multiple alignment of such ... -
Maximum Parsimony Advances for Native Phylogenetic Stemmatics
(2015)In the field of textual criticism, scholars use stemmatics in order to recreate an extinct original text from a collection of extant copied texts. Stemmatic trees are used to represent the relationship between extant and ... -
Mechanics and Cell Response to Aligned Electrospun Nanofibers for Tissue Engineering
(2018)The objective of this work was to characterize the mechanical properties and cell response to aligned polycaprolactone nanofiber scaffolds. Scaffolds were electrospun and post-drawn before fixation to a novel gripping ... -
Mechanistic Insights into Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation Using Cp*Ir(III)Cl Pyridinesulfonamide Complexes
(2015)Previous work in the O’Connor lab focused on the development of (Cp*)Ir pyridinesulfonamide chloride complexes (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) to catalyze transfer hydrogenation. This project has two focuses: 1). ... -
The Mentoring Experience: Perceptions of African American Nurse Leaders and Student Mentees
(2019)Improved representation of African American nurses within the profession can improve the quality of care that minority patients receive. But African American nursing students frequently experience challenges that hinder ... -
Microparticles in Three Dimensional Thrombus Formation
(2015)Thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot under pathological conditions. The growth of thrombi may be accelerated by the presence of circulating cell-derived vesicles, termed microparticles (MPs). Previous studies have ... -
Modeling and Simulation of Fuzzy and Time Petri nets:Toward a Binary Coded Robot Route (BiCRoR) Algorithm
(2014)With the growing complexity of the development of robotic systems, it is not easy to model and simulate behaviors of such structures. Petri nets (PNs) are optimal for design and implementation of these systems due to their ... -
Modeling of axonal block induced by extracellular potassium accumulation in hippocampal CA1 region
(2016)Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a therapy widely applicable to treat neurological disorders, however its mechanism of action is not fully understood. One hypothesis is depolarization blockage resulted from extracellular ... -
Modeling space radiation induced bone loss in rat femurs through finite element analysis
(2016)Spaceflight leaves astronauts at risk for negative consequences to bone health. A long term mission of NASA has been to send a manned mission to mars. Taking over a month for astronauts to reach Mars, long term effects ... -
Modifying membrane permeability with ionic liquids
(2017)Room temperature ionic liquids (ILs) have been proven to have a range of biological applications, from influencing protein folding and structural stability, to affecting enzyme activity, to modifying the permeability profile ... -
Most compact parsimonious trees
(2016)Phylogeny is the evolutionary history of a set of species, represented in the form of a tree. Construction of phylogenetic trees has traditionally focused on binary trees where all species appear on leaves. However, certain ... -
Multidimensional Instrument for the Measurement of Affective Responses to Music
(2014)The goal of this study was to expand upon previous studies that investigated the relationship between personality type, physiological response, and music preference. We developed a multidimensional instrument that allowed ... -
Multilateral Evolutionary Transitions in Individuality (ETIs)
(2020)Evolutionary transitions in individuality (ETls) occur when a group of individual units become integrated such that the level natural selection acts on shifts to the group as a single entity. Egalitarian transition: Group ... -
