What Doesn\u27t Kill You Still Hurts: Trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Modern Young Adult Literature
Get PDFTeardrop Teens and Happy Pills
Get PDFPart research blog and part creative writing, Teardrop Teens and Happy Pills examines how young adult media portrays the sensitive issues of depression, self-harm, and suicide. Through the research blog, media such as 13 Reasons Why and Dear Evan Hansen are analyzed, while the novel Happy Pills is a take on how to write a successful mental health narrative
Luminescent Metal-Organic Frameworks
Get PDFMetal-organic frameworks (MOFs), porous materials composed of metal ions and organic linkers, have broad applications in separation, small molecule storage, and catalysis. Luminescent metalorganic frameworks (LMOFs) hold great potential in the development of sensors, and, with their relatively straightforward syntheses that produce predictable, homogeneous, extended structures, should result in good sensor-to-sensor reproducibility and uniform response. In addition, subtle differences in overall LMOF structure, metal ion coordination, pore surfaces, and host-guest interactions within pores should have significant impact on observed photoluminescence and provide numerous strategies for analyte detection. Highlighted here is the development of LMOFs composed of zinc or zirconium ions that incorporate luminescent osmium complexes into the framework structure and the excitation and emission spectra of these materials in the presence of small molecules of varying polari
The Loss of Ecological Knowledge: A look into the FDA Organic Label Movement and its effects on Local Communities
Get PDFOrganic agriculture is an emerging market sector in USDA agricultural business. The majority of those who take organic labeling into consideration when they are purchasing their food products from stores have some idea about the USDA certified organic label on the product’s packaging, however, there is also much left unknown. What is this label and how does one get an organic certification? In this project, I am researching the organic certification process and larger ethical questions regarding the human relationship with nature and foodstuffs. In particular, I will be exploring the erosion of local ecological knowledge and how this can impact understanding of the “organic” standard. Organic certification currently is limited by the USDA to those farmers and producers who can produce a specific quantity of goods to sell and neglects those who are serving their communities in farmers markets and other local communities. In order to fix this, ensuring the resources of the USDA are actually reaching these communities is vital for the expansion of organic certification and labeling and the maintenance of local ecological knowledge in the United States. This project will explore the tensions between economic, social, and environmental well-being in the context of organic food and management practices for sustainability
