A Low-Cost, Portable Fluorescence Correlation Spectrometer for Disease Diagnosis
The DVD team is developing a cost-effective technique for measuring HIV load in resource-restricted regions. Our client is Dr. Phil Thuma and the Macha Research Trust in Zambia. Our design is based on advanced fluorescence spectroscopy that utilizes a fluorescence protein probe, confocal optics, and low-cost, low-power electronics to assess viral load in a patient blood sample. Our timeline for a functional exploded prototype is Fall 2021.
Specifically, we are employing a method of spectroscopy that seeks to identify individual viruses in dilute samples by characteristic “bursts” in fluorescent and elastically scattered light. We have assembled a housing for a custom-designed detector, associated electronics, and signal processing hardware. One project goal is to integrate this modular design into a single printed circuit board. Communication between signal processing hardware and a software-based user interface implemented on a Raspberry Pi and touchscreen is achieved by the use of a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol. The entire system is battery-powered. This system will allow for fast, effective viral load determinations in remote settings.https://mosaic.messiah.edu/engr2021/1002/thumbnail.jp

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: as performed by TJ Barker’s Troupe of Theatricals
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as Performed by TJ Barker\u27s Troupe of Theatricals Written by Ernie Nolan Directed by Daniel Inouye
Professor TJ Barker and his troupe of traveling theatricals have just arrived at the theatre to begin a performance of their spectacular production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs when they realize something is amiss. Not only has the orchestra not arrived, but also five of the hilarious O\u27Hanlon brothers have been stricken with food poisoning. Now only two actors are left to play the dwarfs! Can Professor Barker rally his troupe and prove that the show can go on? Follow their madcap theatrical adventure as they take turns acting, puppeteering, and becoming the orchestra while performing one of the most beloved fairy tales of all time. Through ingenuity and will power, they prove in the end that anything can happen once upon a time.

Sympathy and Disfavor: The Brethren in Christ Church and Civil Rights, 1950-1965
This article, the first of two exploring the Brethren in Christ Church’s response to race, racism, and the Civil Right movement, picks up the story in the early 1950s and runs through 1965—that is, after the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. In the 1950s, the Brethren in Christ Church began to develop programs to address America’s “race problem” (e.g., starting new churches in black neighborhoods), but its support for black civil rights was always minimal. Even as the church expressed sympathy for the goals of the Civil Rights Movement, it condemned activist means of protest that, in its view, were overly assertive and threatening to law and order. Committed to the popular evangelical notion that social change is best and most faithfully advanced through the conversion of sinful individuals, and steeped in an Anabaptist view of nonresistance that shrank from coercive political strategies, the Brethren in Christ Church remained a largely silent observer of the most important social movement in 20th-century America
