  • Virtual Reality in Healthcare

    Work
    Type:
    Article
    Description/Abstract:
    This paper presents a prime aspect of Augmented and Virtual Reality development in the field of healthcare. We explored several recent works and articles and a comparison between generic application development and immersive technology-based application is included. The paper talks about more practical approaches that can be taken to enhance the effectiveness of the application. The resources (infrastructure) to complete this study are provided by the University of Cincinnati’s Center for Simulation and Virtual Environment Research (UCSIM). And several experiments and projects in the field of health care are used as a reference to make conclusions.

  • Interdisciplinary Capstone: Bringing Dialogue in the Dark to Cincinnati

    Qf85nc779?file=thumbnail
    Type:
    StudentWork
    Description/Abstract:
    The purpose of this capstone was to organize and pursue the creation of a Dialogue in the Dark exhibition in Cincinnati. Dialogue in the Dark is an organization that, since 1988, has internationally utilized exhibits that allow visitors to be led through an hour long simulation of blindness as lead by a visually impaired guide through four pitch back simulated environments. The purpose of this exhibit is twofold. In an immediate sense it is meant to demonstrate to visitors that those who we often marginalize due to their disabilities are in fact quite capable, effectively serving as a platform to recognize, address, and overcome problems created by perceived "otherness". The larger lessons derive from experiencing a profoundly different reality than is normally accessible in terms of both the specific type of experience and the degree of contrast of realities it poses. Such jarring experiences open a brief window for dialogue. Drawing from actor-network theory, various principles and techniques from action research, and from fields such as organizational psychology, visual anthropology, and sociology, this capstone contains workable processes and objectives relevant to both the creation of a Cincinnati based Dialogue in the Dark and the framework for a Coalition for Community Action and Cooperation. These processes and objectives are to be constantly ongoing in development, and are only rudimentary in presentation style. Additionally, this project contains a reflection on both the process of bringing Dialogue in the Dark to Cincinnati thus far, a discussion of post-capstone plans for Dialogue in the Dark, and, in the spirit of demonstrating my BIS inspired work in general, a condensed introduction to my “Theory of Grand Irrationality” and my “Social Pulse Theory”, both of which are central starting points for the grad school experience I am both seeking and planning.

  • Proposal for the establishment of a National Service Learning Academy and complimentary Action Research Program at the University of Cincinnati

    Work
    Type:
    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    In this proposal for a National Service Learning Academy and complimentary Action Research Program, several curricula configurations are put forth. The first is a full-blown action research major that partially dictates the appropriate courses to take fulfilling the A&S core requirements and the majority of free electives. The second is a minor/certificate in action research. The third is an alternative set of core courses that would replace the credit hours traditionally reserved for the A&S core requirements, enabling any student to tack on the action research experience to their chosen major while still having credit hours available to pursue other minors, certificates, or electives. The fourth is an alternative core that is based more heavily on applied courses and knowledge.

  • Understanding Open Access and Open Data

    1j92g876r?file=thumbnail
    Type:
    Medium
    Description/Abstract:
    This webinar was a part of the Data and Computation Science Series and one of five webinars focused on the Publishing Lifecycle of Data. It occurred on July 27, 2020, at 2:00 pm EDT. Due to technical difficulties, the presentation starts at 8:47. The presenter was Claudio Aspesi, Senior Research Analyst. He joined Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., LLC, in 2004 covering European media stocks. Previously he was Global Senior Vice President of Strategy at EMI Music and was responsible for defining the company’s business model as the music industry entered the digital age. Before joining EMI Music in 2002, Mr. Aspesi was a member of the executive team at Airclic, an Internet infrastructure company, and prior to that a Principal at McKinsey and Co., working with many leading media and entertainment companies. Mr. Aspesi graduated with the highest honors from Universita Luigi Bocconi, Milan, with a Laurea in Economia Aziendale. Session Description - Open data and metadata - opportunities, risks, and possible actions Research data is at the core of what universities do. Its value to researchers is, of course, paramount - and open science offers significant benefits to the scientific community. But this data, and the attached metadata, are increasingly valuable for third parties as well. We will discuss how research data and metadata increasingly overlaps with all the other data produced by academic institutions, how it is becoming increasingly valuable outside the academic community, and how it could become even more valuable in the future. The collection, analysis, synthesis and preservation of data and metadata, however, pose significant issues as well; for example, data can and is being used to evaluate individuals (with the biases implicit in developing algorithms to analyze them). More broadly, the collection and analysis of data raises privacy and academic freedom concerns, and so does the lack of transparency and accountability of third party users. Ultimately, the deployment of data analytics and Artificial Intelligence tools should fit with the broader values of the academic community, such as equity and sustainability - whether it does so is controversial. In addition to the need to establish principles for the use of data analytics and Artificial Intelligence, there are also significant ethical questions that need to be addressed, and that pose significant challenges, and there are questions about how to ensure the long term preservation of data and metadata. We will close the presentation with a look at possible steps that the academic community ought to take to address all these issues. We hope that a discussion will follow, in order to address questions and issues, as well as to gather points of view from participants

  • Does the One-China policy shape the People’s Republic of China’s foreign policy?: Soft, sharp, and hard power

    V692t7665?file=thumbnail
    Type:
    Article
    Description/Abstract:
    This analytical paper asks, does the One-China policy shape the People’s Republic of China’s foreign policy? This paper begins by briefly defining the One-China policy and situating it in the respective histories of China and its current incarnation as the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Then, after untangling the often muddled classifications of soft, sharp, and hard power, the question is interrogated in the context of each class of power (Nye, 2004; Nye, 2011; Nye, 2018; Raby, 2019; Walker & Ludwig, 2017). This analytical essay concludes that the PRC does employ predominantly sharp and hard power strategies that are heavily influenced by the One-China policy.

  • WORKING DRAFT - 5G and International Security: How the UK can Lead the Way

    3484zj368?file=thumbnail
    Type:
    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    The current debates revolving around 5G, Huawei, and how they are resolved, are highly visible indicators of the technology based shifts in the global order which are setting the tone for the 21st century. Currently, it seems that many in the US and the PRC are using Cold War and Thucydides Trap paradigms, with a zero-sum mentality. At least in the case of 5G technology, the UK seems to have taken a more nuanced approach. This article comes as the UK prepares its new National Cyber Security Strategy, reviewing the 5G and cyber security debates surrounding Huawei in a highly interdisciplinary manner, and directing readers to a rich variety of resources. In addition to its analysis of issues and solutions often absent from the discourse, this article’s feature contribution is the argument that the UK can be more than an example of a middle way. Specifically, if the UK scales up and internationalizes its Huawei Cyber Security Evaluation Center, perhaps by creating an International Cyber Security Evaluation Center, it can lead its allies and the world in 5G, 6G, cybersecurity, and international relations, filling a vital leadership vacuum.

  • Establishing a comprehensive census of undergraduate economics curricula: Foundational and special requirements for major programs in the U.S.

    5138jg05p?file=thumbnail
    Type:
    StudentWork
    Description/Abstract:
    Abstract This study is the first of a series of studies, collectively embodying a multiphase mixed methods design. The overall objective of these studies is to explore and address a variety of issues and features of the discipline of economics, particularly as they relate to and represent past present and future factors of globalization, education, citizenship, and society. This is done by collecting and analyzing data on numerous aspects of the undergraduate economics curriculum, economics as a discipline, and economics as applied in the real world. The overall purpose of these studies is to inform ongoing debates concerning the future of the discipline of economics and how it is taught, by examining and creating paradigms and methods that may be of aide. Additionally these studies collectively aim to outline, and in small ways develop, potential technological and organizational solutions for detailed longitudinal curriculum tracking. The frameworks employed and developed in these studies may eventually be scaled and adapted for all sorts of curricula. Ideally, the completion of this study’s overall objective yields practical insights and tools that empower faculty and departments, in economics and eventually in general, to better understand and design their own curriculum. This immediate study fills gaps in and updates data on the curriculum of undergraduate economics majors in U.S. institutions, while also establishing a baseline data set for future studies to build on. A qualitative census methodology is adapted and employed to explore how various institutional and program factors relate to certain types of major program requirements. Descriptive statistics are used for analysis, primarily to allow for comparisons to previous studies. In sum, the purpose of the data collected and analyzed in this census is to give a glimpse into the current state of the undergraduate economics curriculum in the U.S., and to inform the qualitative, quantitative, and transformative studies that are to follow in this multiphase series.

  • Promotion of food allergy by the unfolded protein response (preprint)

    Work
    Type:
    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    This is a preprint of a to be submitted paper that demonstrates that: (1) many important food allergens (eggs, milk, peanuts, tree nuts) induce the unfolded protein response (UPR) in intestinal epithelial cells; (2) induction of the UPR, in turn, stimulates the expression of pro-Th2 cytokines (IL-25, IL-33, TSLP) that are required for the induction of food allergy by these cytokines; (3) egg allergy is suppressed in mouse models by the UPR inhibitor, metformin (a drug widely used to treat diabetes mellitus); and (4) metformin appears to have a protective effects in humans who have alpha-gal syndrome, which is a form of food allergy.
