Two Geometry Problems in Plato\u27s \u3ci\u3eMeno\u3c/i\u3e
Get PDFDr. Sophia Stone, associate professor in the College of Arts and Sciences, gave two talks for the Boston Area Colloquium for Ancient Philosophy (BACAP) at Assumption University. The BACAP was founded in 1978 to invite global scholars to lecture to local philosophers and classicists to foster community dialogue.Stone\u27s first talk, presented during the undergraduate seminar, explored two geometry problems in Plato\u27s Meno. The presentation for students in the undergraduate seminar part of the BACAP prepares the student to understand the evening lecture given to the BACAP. Dr. Stone went through both geometry problems in Plato\u27s Meno. The first demonstration used origami paper, Professor Stone calls it Socratic origami where the students followed along by folding origami paper. The second proof we looked at various diagrams and discussed the complexity of the second problem to the first
Brain Function, Cognition, Memory and Everyday Functions
No full textDr. Melissa Lehman, associate professor in the College of Arts and Sciences, presented a two-talk series at the Delray Beach Public Library\u27s Lifelong Learning Institute titled Brain Function, Cognition, Memory and Everyday Functions.
During Lehman\u27s first talk (March 13, 2025), she discussed how the brain supports cognitive processes like memory, language and decision-making. Her second talk (March 20, 2025) explored how memories form and recall, highlighting common memory errors and their psychological roots
The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Fashion and Retail Efficiency: A Strategic Analysis
No full textArtificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the fashion and retail industry by driving efficiency, enhancing consumer engagement, and redefining supply chain management. Through the integration of advanced automation, predictive analytics, and personalized marketing strategies, AI has enabled retailers to streamline operations, refine inventory management, and anticipate consumer preferences. This paper provides an extensive analysis of AI’s transformative effects on the fashion and retail sectors with a particular focus on automation, predictive analytics, personalized marketing, and supply chain optimization. In addition to demonstrating AI’s potential to boost productivity and profitability, the study addresses significant challenges associated with AI implementation—such as ethical concerns, regulatory frameworks, and shifts in the labor market. Case studies of leading retailers including Zara, Sephora, and Amazon are examined to explore both the tangible benefits and the inherent challenges of integrating AI technologies. The discussion further emphasizes future directions in the industry, underscoring the need for responsible AI adoption, comprehensive workforce reskilling, and strategic policymaking to foster sustainable growth (Acemoglu & Restrepo, 2020; Brynjolfsson & McAfee, 2017; European Commission, 2023; McKinsey & Company, 2023; OECD, 2022)
Circadian Rhythm Analysis in \u3ci\u3eDrosophila melanogaster\u3c/i\u3e Using DAM2 and Shiny-R: An Examination of Activity Patterns
Get PDFCircadian rhythms are inherent cycles that last approximately 24 hours and govern numerous physiological and behavioral processes, such as sleeping and waking, hormone secretion, and feeding (Fagiani, F., Di Marino, D., Romagnoli, A. et al., 2022). These rhythms are entrained in the external environmental signals of light and temperature so that organisms can anticipate and adapt to daily changes in their ambient environments. These molecular rhythms depend on a core set of clock genes and proteins that produce self-sustaining feedback loops to sustain periodicity. Light and temperature are the main external cues that control these cycles, allowing organisms to anticipate changes in their surroundings. Survival depends on an organism\u27s ability to adapt to daily environmental changes, and this entrainment ensures that organisms function well in their specific environments.
Fruit flies, or Drosophila melanogaster, are commonly used as model organisms in the study of circadian rhythms. Their short lifespan, simple genetic makeup, and distinct behavior make them perfect for studying the molecular mechanisms behind biological clocks. Fruit fly circadian rhythms are regulated by a variety of timeless genes and genetic processes found in more complex organisms, including humans. In this study, we use the Trikinetics DAM2 Drosophila Activity Monitor (DAM) to examine circadian rhythms in wild-type Drosophila under different conditioning protocols and treatments. Through data analysis, we hope to learn more about circadian biology and its possible effects on human health and treatment by investigating the genetic and environmental factors that affect circadian rhythms
