Abstract:
I am an excremental artist. I do not mean an artist who works with feces or is interested in manure but one whose artwork is expelled through the results of process. As a photographer, I am not as interested in indexing a location, a person or a moment as I am dissolving the structure of photography through the manipulation of photographic materials. I typically photograph landscapes that catch my attention for a myriad of reasons. The commonality between these images is anonymity of place. Hints of location are always present but never accentuated, instead their purpose is akin to a forging slug: raw blank material from which my artwork will be created. My photographic slugs are then entered into various processing systems that I have devised over the years. Common processing techniques that I incorporate include hand and machine stitching, chemically altering photographic paper and the integration of open-source electronics. These and other processes are mixed, matched and blended to form the corpus of my work. The body of my work is not complete without my head, heart and hands. My intellectual interests are constantly feeding the physical processes described above. I have an extended engagement with photography’s rich history along with a critical commitment to philosophy. My intuition is permitted to work in concert with my intellect despite stark contrasts between the two. My intellect looks for structures and speaks in logical thought while my intuition arrives in waves of unarticulated emotions and ‘gut feelings’. The heart’s language is often more difficult to translate than intellectual headband but both are equally valuable in my process. Finally, my hands play a vital role in creating my art. They transcribe the conversation between the head and the heart and physically complete the processes defined prior. My artwork is not conceived and the built into a structure, instead it is a result of the passing through a system. I consume copious amounts of stimuli (intellectually, visually, emotionally) and digest it through my creative process and the result is my artwork.

Abstract:
Cancer remains one of the most dreaded diseases due to inevitable suffering and possible fatality. Only cardiac disease has caused more deaths than cancer. Present day cancer treatment involves radiation, surgery or chemotherapy. In chemotherapy, an anti-tumoral drug is used to treat the tumor either by killing or stalling the growth of the tumor cells. In certain types of cancer, for e.g. metastatic breast cancer, the first line of therapy is often chemotherapy. But the inability of current clinically approved drugs to selectively target tumor cells, ultimately results in side effects. To reduce these side effects, prodrug therapies have been developed. A prodrug is defined as a drug molecule inactivated by a temporary cap or carrier, subsequently removed by an external intra or extracellular stimulus. Several prodrug strategies such as ADEPT (Antibody–Directed Enzyme Prodrug Therapy) have been tested in clinical trials but have thus far met with limited success. In the wake of these limitations, development of photo-activatable prodrugs may be particularly desirable for minimizing the adverse side effects associated with current cancer chemotherapeutics. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a light dependent tumor treatment modality that has existed for many years. PDT involves a photosensitizer which is administered to the patient and later activated using the light of wavelengths between 650-800 nm. The activated photosensitizer creates singlet oxygen, which acts as cytotoxic agent to the tumor cells. But this approach has several drawbacks including slow uptake of the photosensitizer by the tumor cells and the dependence on molecular oxygen that is not always present at even moderate levels in the tumor tissues. To address these limitations of PDT, we developed a new prodrug concept called ‘Photocaged Permeability’ in our first project, and demonstrated drug delivery using this approach. The basis of this concept is that, by attaching a hydrophilic molecule to the drug via a photosensitive linker, the permeability of the drug could be restrained. But the drug could be released at the site of the tumor after irradiating with UV light. To achieve this goal, we designed and synthesized a photosensitive drug conjugate that was comprised of doxorubicin attached to a negatively charged, cell impermeable molecule, EDANS (5-((2-Aminoethyl) amino) naphthalein-1-sulfonic acid) via a photosensitive nitroveratryl linker. Later, we performed MTT (cell viability) assays using esophageal adenocarcinoma (JH-EsoAd1) cells to determine the efficiency of our drug conjugate to induce cell death. As expected our drug conjugate was able to induce cell death, but only in presence of light. But in the dark, the cells remained unaffected. Also, we did several control studies to substantiate the fact that the cell death was actually due to drug release but not due to light or other entities. Further, we performed FACS (Fluorescence Assisted Cell Sorting) and confocal assays to show that in dark, the drug conjugate did not permeate cells. But upon irradiation with UV light, the drug was released from the conjugate, permeated the cells and induced cell death. A weakness of the above mentioned approach is that the drug is “decaged” or photo-released from the conjugates only under UV light; which cannot be translated to physiological conditions. This is because the UV light cannot penetrate deeper than 5 mm into the human skin. As a result, tumor cells that are deeply embedded in the human body cannot be treated using these approaches. To address this problem, Near Infrared (NIR) light could be used as it penetrates deeper than UV. Recently, several groups have reported using Upconverting Nanoparticles (UCNP) for the purpose of drug activation. The basis of this phenomenon is that the incidence of NIR light on these particles initiates multi-photon processes, eventually emitting UV/VIS wavelengths. The advantage of the NIR is that it deeply penetrates into the human skin. In our latest project, we have designed a drug conjugate that would be attached to UCNPs. We envision that after grafting the drug conjugate onto the nanoparticles and irradiating it with NIR drug release will occur as a result of upconversion. The above two systems describes novel methodologies for controlled release of the drug. To further improve the efficacy of the drug action, we designed new photosensitive systems based on the concept of targeted drug delivery. Targeted drug delivery is a treatment methodology in which the modified chemotherapeutic drug with higher tumor affinity could be concentrated in the tumor tissues. In certain cases, the receptors of tumor cells are targeted for the purpose of therapy. Receptors are cell surface proteins that are expressed on their plasma membrane. A select few of them such as Folic Acid Receptor (FAR) and PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen) are overexpressed in malignant cells. In our new designs, we attached folic acid and urea based (DUPA) ligand, which were previously reported to bind to FAR and PSMA receptors respectively. Cell studies are currently underway to determine the specificity of these drug conjugates in targeting tumor cells. Once we demonstrate the above drug delivery strategies in vitro and later in vivo, we will have established novel drug delivery systems that could potentially be applied towards chemotherapeutic treatment.

Abstract:
Aquesta tesi aprofundeix en l’estudi de nanotransportadors com a sistemes de vehiculització i en alguns casos, alliberació de fotosensibilitzadors emprats en teràpia fotodinàmica. S’han fet servir dos nanotransportadors de naturalesa diferent: proteïnes i liposomes. En primer lloc s’ha investigat els complexos formats entre la hipericina i les proteïnes apomioglobina i β-lactoglobulina. S’han estudiat les característiques fisicoquímiques i fotofísiques, avaluant l’activitat antimicrobiana en front a bacteris gram-positius i gram-negatius. En ambdues matrius proteiques el fotosensibilitzador es troba majoritàriament en forma monomèrica, preservant les seves propietats fotofísiques i formant un complex estable. En el cas de la β-lactoglobulina s’estudia a més, la formació del complex amb l’adició d’un 20% de DMSO com a co-solvent, fet que millora les propietats fotofísiques en detriment de la capacitat antimicrobiana. Ambdós complexos proteics son efectius contra bacteris gram-positius però no contra gram-negatius. Per altra banda, es demostra que la hipericina incorporada a la cavitat de l’apomioglobina pot ser utilitzada en microscòpia de super-resolució STED. Amb aquesta tècnica es pot monitoritzar els llocs d’unió del fotosensibilitzador a la membrana dels bacteris. Així mateix, s’estudia l’ús de la β-lactoglobulina com a portador dual d’hipericina i àcid retinoic. En aquest últim sistema multi-component s’avaluen les propietats fotofísiques per a verificar la formació i estabilitat del complex. En segon lloc, es desenvolupa un nanovehicle per la seva aplicació en teràpia combinada en el qual s’incorporen fàrmacs quimioterapèutics convencionals amb agents fotosensibilitzants, per superar resistències i millorar l’eficàcia dels tractaments individuals. Amb aquest objectiu, s’han dissenyat i estudiat dues formulacions liposomals diferents, ambdues amb el mateix fotosensibilitzador però encapsulant diferents agents quimioterapèutics. Es preparen formulacions bimodals on s’incorporen els dos agents al mateix vehicle i els seus homòlegs unimodals, amb la incorporació única d’un dels dos agents. S’han avaluat les característiques fisicoquímiques, fotofísiques i fotobiològiques de les suspensions bimodals i unimodals. La lozalització subcel·lular demostra que cada principi actiu es localitza a orgànuls diferents desencadenant rutes de senyalització cel·lular diferents, eludint els possibles mecanismes de resistència. El tractament in vitro en cèl·lules cancerígenes amb aquests sistemes tenen un efecte prometedor, ja que com a mínim presenten un comportament additiu respecte els tractaments individuals. Finalment, s’ha avaluat el potencial de la vehiculització activa mitjançant la unió covalent d’un anticòs monoclonal a la superfície, el que millora lleugerament els resultats per una de les dues formulacions.

En el caso de la β-lactoglobulina se estudia además, la formación del complejo con la adición del 20% de DMSO como co-solvente, lo que mejora las propiedades físicas pero sorprendentemente, empeora la capacidad antimicrobiana. Ambos complejos proteicos son efectivos contra bacterias gram-positivas, pero no contra gram-negativas. Además, se demuestra que la hipericina en la cavidad de la apomioglobina es capaz de realizar microscopía de super-resolución STED, mediante la cual se puede monitorizar los sitios de unión a las bacterias. Asimismo, se ha estudiado la β-lactoglobulina como portador dual de hipericina y ácido retinoico. En este último sistema multi-componente se evalúan las propiedades fotofísicas para verificar la formación y estabilidad del complejo.

La localización subcelular demuestra que cada principio activo se localiza en orgánulos diferentes desencadenando rutas de señalización celular diferentes, eludiendo los posibles mecanismos de resistencia. El tratamiento in vitro en células cancerígenas de estos sistemas tiene un efecto prometedor siendo al menos aditivo en comparación con los tratamientos individuales. Finalmente, se ha evaluado el potencial de la vehiculización activa mediante la unión covalente de un anticuerpo monoclonal en la superficie, lo que lleva a resultados ligeramente superiores para una de las dos formulaciones.
This thesis reports the study of nanocarriers as drug delivery systems for photosensitisers in photodynamic therapy. Proteins and liposomes are the two nanovehicles of different nature used for this purpose. Beginning with the proteins, the complexes formed between hypericin and the proteins apomyoglobin and β-lactoglobulin have been explored. The physicochemical and photophysical properties have been studied, as also assessing their photoantibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In both protein scaffolds the photosensitiser is found mainly in monomeric form, preserving its fluorescence and singlet oxygen photosensitising properties and yielding a stable complex. In the case of β-lactoglobulin, the complex formation has also been tested with the addition of a 20% DMSO as a co-solvent, which improves the photophysical properties but surprisingly, worsens its antimicrobial activity. Both protein complexes are effective against Gram-positive but not against Gram-negative bacteria. Moreover, it has been proved that hypericin, inside the apomyoglobin cavity, can perform STED microscopy through which its localization in bacteria can be monitored. Additionally, the suitability of β-lactoglobulin as a dual carrier for hypericin and acid retinoic has also been exploited. In this last multi-component system, the photophysical properties have been evaluated to confirm the formation and complex stability. Secondly, a nanocarrier for its use in combined therapy has been developed, in which conventional chemotherapeutic drugs are combined with photosensitising agents to overcome resistance and improve the effectiveness of the individual treatments. For this purpose, two different liposome formulations have been designed and studied with a common photosensitiser but different anti tumour drugs. The bimodal formulations with both agents entrapped and their unimodal counterparts, having each drug loaded in separate liposomes, have been evaluated. The physicochemical, photophysical and photobiological properties of bimodal and unimodal suspensions have been studied. The subcellular localization shows different organelle accumulation by each agent, triggering different key signals transduction pathways, eluding the cellular resistance mechanisms. The treatment in vitro of these multi-component liposomes with cancer cells has a promising effect, since at least an additive outcome is observed when compared with the individual treatments. Finally, we have explored the potential of active targeting strategies by covalently linking a monoclonal antibody to the surface, leading to slightly greater outcomes for one of the liposomal formulations.

In this thesis we present an optical and electronic setup that is capable of performing coherent state tomography. We fully characterize it in order to verify whether or not it will be capable to perform non-demolition homodyne detection of squeezed light in a high-finesse cavity QED setup with an ensemble of Cesium atoms coupled to the cavity. After quantifying sources of noise, the photodiode efficiency, we perform a series of measurements of low photon number coherent states and compare them against the standard quantum limit. We discuss a variety of technical challenges encountered in such systems and some methods to overcome them. Lastly, we test the apparatus' ability to do quantum state tomography and quantum state reconstruction by reconstructing the density matrix and Wigner functions for low photon-number coherent states.

Spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) can produce pairs of entangled photons, i.e., a stream of biphotons. SPDC has been utilized in a number of optical imaging applications, such as optical coherence tomography, ghost imaging, holography and lithography, to obtain performance that cannot be realized with standard optical sources. However, a debate continues as to whether the improved imaging characteristics of such systems should be attributed to the entanglement property of the photon pairs. This thesis sets out to unify--and generalize--classical and quantum imaging within the framework of Gaussian-state light fields, which encompasses thermal light--the source used in conventional imagers--and biphoton-state light as special instances. Within this framework, we are able to provide a complete understanding of the boundary between classical and quantum behavior in optical coherence tomography (OCT), ghost imaging and two-photon imaging. Furthermore, we show that almost all characteristics of biphoton-state imagers are due to phase-sensitive cross correlations, and hence are obtainable with classical phase-sensitive sources.

Abstract:
The performance of connections and full-scale shear walls constructed with acrylic foam pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape is the focus of this thesis. The objectives of this study were first to investigate the bonding characteristics of adhesive tape to wood substrates and then to expand this investigation to cover adhesive-based shear walls subjected to high wind and seismic loadings. A total of 287 monotonic connection tests and 23 reversed cyclic wall tests were performed to achieve these objectives. Connection tests were performed in accordance with ASTM D 1761-88 (2000), and walls were tested using the CUREE (Consortium of Universities for Earthquake Engineering) general displacement-based protocol.

Variables investigated within the main study were the following: the use of OSB versus plywood sheathing, the effect of priming and surface sanding on adhesion, and the comparison of connections involving mechanical fasteners with those that utilized only adhesive tape or a combination of the two. It was found that an application pressure of 207 kPa (30 psi) or greater was needed to form a sound bond between the acrylic foam adhesive tape and a wood substrate. Properly bonded OSB and plywood connections provided fairly ductile failure modes. Full-scale walls constructed with adhesive tape performed similarly to traditional wall configurations, while walls constructed with a combination of adhesive tape and mechanical fasteners provided significant gains in strength and toughness. The results of this study serve to provide a foundation for expanding the engineering uses of acrylic foam adhesive tape for structural applications.

Abstract:
This study attempts to identify the mechanism of the so-called afternoon nap zone. More specifically, it investigates a recent proposal that the afternoon nap zone represents the point in time after morning awakening when process-S has increased to a sufficiently high level to facilitate sleep onset, while at the same time an SCN-controlled circadian arousal process has not yet risen high enough to reverse this increased sleepiness. Eight normal male subjects aged 20--30 years, were monitored on two separate occasions under low ambient light (150 lux). Night sleep hours were maintained at 23:00--06:00h. PSG monitoring included EEG (C3-A2, O2-A1), right EOG-M1, left EOG-M2, submental EMG and core body temperature recorded continuously by a combination of the Oxford Medilog 9000 8-channel ambulatory recorder and the Minilogger temperature monitoring system. Following a baseline 24-hour day, bright light stimulation (10,000 lux) was given on two consecutive days either in the evening (20:00--22:00h) or morning (06:00--08:00h) in counter-balanced fashion with a 30 day washout periods between. Other than during a period of bright light stimulation, the level of daytime arousal was assessed every 60 min by quantified EEG spectral power followed by a 10 min duration simple reaction time test. In the baseline condition both the performance and Q-EEG variables confirmed the presence of a transitory afternoon nap zone as indexed by the timing of poorest performance and of greatest spectral power in a number of Q-EEG measures. Evening bright light treatment phase delayed these nap zone measures. Conversely, morning bright light phase advanced these measures. The finding that the timing of poorest performance and of the Q-EEG determined nap zone can be phase delayed by evening light and phase advanced by morning light supports the hypothesis tested, as well as supporting the existence of an SCN-dependent circadian arousal system in humans similar to that described by Edgar et al. (1993) in sub-human primates.

Full text
Abstract:
In Gaza, daily blackouts have lasted for over eleven years. Until recently, Palestinian families have received only four hours of power each day. Since Israel’s withdrawal from the region in 2005, the political discourse around the Right of Return has forced refugees to live in terrible conditions and darkness. The fear was that any transformation of the camps will bring about an integration of the refugee community with the local environment and thus any improvements to Gaza’s infrastructure and housing was seen as a direct erosion of the Right of Return. Can bringing light to Gaza transcend this boundary of temporality and restore hope to this impoverished community? With recent solar lighting ideas emerging to help solve Gaza’s energy shortage by solar energy companies such as SunBox and LittleSun, I plan to develop a solar urban lighting project for Gaza’s smallest refugee camp - Deir al-Balah (DEB) - to help improve security at night for residents and provide the community with opportunities to socialise in public common areas. In response to an ‘Improvement Plan’ conducted by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in 2017, which identifies DEB camp’s limited access to electricity and street lighting, I’d like to explore how a solar and ecologically-sensitive lighting programs can improve Gazan’s daily lives, by bringing clean, reliable and affordable energy access.

Abstract:
This volume of essays arose from a conference which marked the 80th birthday of prizewinning British poet Tony Harrison on 30 April 2017 and with his agreement constitutes his ‘official’ Festschrift. The contributors include practising poets, playwrights, specialists in Classics, Theatre, Translation Studies, English and World Literature, and professionals in media (radio, newspapers, TV and film) where Harrison’s extensive work has been least researched. The aim of the volume is to open up new approaches to the understanding of the work of one of our most important poets. Although it is indeed intended to provide the substantial and sufficiently comprehensive contribution to Harrison scholarship that his official eight-decades-alive merit, and the Editor’s Introduction to the volume is sensitive to the needs of the reader in terms of bibliographical signposts, the four sections focus primarily on areas that have been hitherto little explored: (1) his more recent poems; (2) the continuation of his relationship with ancient theatre after the landmark Oresteia and Trackers of the 1980–1990 decade, his evolving dramatic relationship with Euripides, and with French authors (Hugo, Molière, Racine); (3) the international angle. This entails both the profound contribution made to his work by his periods of residence abroad, in Africa, North America, Moscow and Prague, and his popularity in French and Italian translation (both European translators have agreed to speak); (4) his extensive body of poems (about which almost nothing has been published) written specifically for delivery in the media of film, television and radio.

Abstract:
This report sheds light on challenges faced by Transgender persons in Indian prisons. The report analyses the international and legal frameworks in the country which provide the foundation for policy formulations with regard to confinement of LGBT+ persons, with particular reference to the Transgender community. This report also documents the responses received to right to information requests filed to prison headquarters across the country, which in addition to providing the number of Transgender prisoners in Indian prisons between 1st May 2018 to 30th April 2019, also provides relevant information on compliance within prisons with existing legal frameworks relevant to protecting the rights of Transgender persons in prisons, especially in terms of recognition of a third gender, allocation of wards, search procedures, efforts towards capacity building of prison administrators etc. The finalisation of this report has involved an intense consultative process with individuals and experts, including representatives from the community, community-based organisations as well as researcher and academicians working on this issue. This report aims to enhance the understanding of these issues among stakeholders such as prison administrators, judicial officers, lawyers, legal service providers as well as other non-state actors. It is aimed at better informed policy making, and ensuring that decisions made with respect to LGBTI+ persons in prisons recognize and are sensitive of their rights and special needs.
