Effects of Nanomaterials on Blood brain Barrier
$10.003 topics; half a page up to a page maximum on each topic (Total of 2 pages or 2 and half pages for the whole assignment).
Topic No. 1
Effects of Nanomaterials on Blood Brain Barrier
The professor will talk about the brain engineering and the interactions that nanomaterials have with brain in general and blood brain barrier in particular.
Additionally, the talk will focus on presenting the pros and cons of nanomaterials in nanomedicine and consumer products.
The topics covered will include the interactions of engineered nanomaterials with brain and various other biological systems.
Topic No. 2
Green and sustainable chemistry: Role of catalysis in attaining a sustainable civilization
In this talk an overview of green and sustainable chemistry will be presented. Few examples, such as greening of lead based products and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) will be discussed. As an effort towards green chemistry we are developing novel metal complex catalysts which can perform environmentally benign oxidation chemistry, use renewable resources (carbon dioxide, CO2) to synthesize value added chemical products, replace expensive platinum catalysts with non-precious metal catalysts, and detect various molecules.

New Devices and Applications for the Sub-Terahertz and Terahertz Bands
John L. Volakis
The Ohio State University
The terahertz band (0.3 -10 THz) is associated with several attractive applications, including spectroscopic identification, security, non-destructive imaging and wideband proximity wireless communications. However, exploitation of the terahertz band is still at its infancy. This is due to the lack of portable sources, transceivers and low cost portable imaging devices. Recently, Ohio State acquired several sub-terahertz and terahertz equipment for signal generation, spectroscopy, imaging, testing and evaluation of components and systems. In this presentation, we will review several new developments in terahertz as relates to sources, communications, and imaging. Unique equipment set-ups will be presented along with demonstrations that exploit the potential of terahertz for near-zone communications, imaging and security.
Poor health outcome in South Central Los Angeles
$10.00PowerPoint Presentation
The goal of this assignment is to think critically about the need for cultural competency in health the US, and suggest innovative strategies to address that need (focus on solutions).
TOPIC: Why do “food deserts” result in poorer health outcomes such as diabetes and hypertension in South Central Los Angeles?
(some ideas http://www.medicareadvocacy.org/medicare-info/health-care-disparities/)
Address the following questions:
- a) In what ways does your selected population currently NOT receive culturally competent health care and public health service? Give specific examples that can illustrate your point.
- b) What are the specific health consequences of the non-competent health care for your selected population?
- c) What do you suggest to solve this deficiency? Propose one or a series of intervention activities / laws which would help your chosen population to receive more culturally competent health care. You will need to explain the possible short term and long term consequences of your proposed activities / laws.
Format your responses to these prompts as a PowerPoint presentation. The length of the presentation will not exceed 12 minutes.

$15.00Overview: Essay #2 is the second part of what eventually will be stitched together into a three-part discussion of various cinephiliac approaches to film. In the first part, you were asked to write about a film and show why, as a cinephiliac critic (real or imaginary), it is important for you to write: How have your life experience是, aesthetic values, and moral convictions influenced your taste and the need to make this taste public? The second part, essay #2, takes a more structured approach to film analysis, using the “cinephiliac moment” as the linchpin of analysis (see below). Essay #3 will ask you to reflect on the two first voices in which you will have written and explain where you stand in relation to the many models of cinephilia introduced in class.Essay #3 will also integrate a rewrite of essays #1 and #2. The resulting term paper will provide you with a chance to compose a 15-page paper, which is often requested upon application to advanced study programs.
Essay #2:Choose one, at most two “cinephiliac moments” in a single film. (You may choose any film, as long as it was not assigned to class. You may choose the same film you discussed in essay #1.) Explain why you regard the chosen elements as a cinephiliac moment, drawing on both your personal viewing experience and formal analysis (see below). Explain how appreciating and analyzing this moment contributes to your personal understanding of the film. Elaborate on how this cinephiliac moment reflects your commitment to film viewing as an aesthetic experience and/or moral act.
As you compose the essay, please make sure to follow these guidelines:
(1) Do not include plot summary. All references to films and descriptions of films should be motivated by your argument.
(2) Substantiate your arguments through formal analysis of the cinephiliac moment, paying attention to mise-en-scene, editing, and/or sound.
(3) When explaining elements of the cinephiliac moment, base your analysis on at least three of the readings assigned for this course; refer to specific passages in these sources.
(4) Comport with the following technical guidelines:
(a) The essay should be double-spaced and in Times Roman font size 12. All text should be justified to the left.
(b) The required length is 1,100-1,300 words.
(c) Familiarize yourself with the UW’s regulations on plagiarism. Each and every case of suspected plagiarism will be referred to the Vice Provost for Student Affairs, whose actions may result in anything from on-file reprimand to expulsion. (Like newspaper critics, you can refer to other writings on the film, as long as you give them full credit.)
Grading: The essay is calculated at 24% of the final grade. Grading criteria include: (1) Writing in accordance with the essay prompt; (2) Clear and grammatically correct language; (3) Careful use of examples to substantiate your arguments
