DIPL 6155 WB Advanced Economic Aspects of International Relations
The main premise of graduate level work is change. Change requires openness to new ideas. It also requires willingness to abandon old ones. In order to be successful in this course, you should be willing to unlearn and rethink many of the perceptions you might have about international economics or globalization: You already know a great deal, taught by politicians, media, roommates, friends, and relatives. Most of these are either incomplete or simply wrong!
Accordingly, to better understand the economic aspects of international relations, we will review the economic issues generated by globalization by emphasizing facts as well as theories. In doing so, we will be familiarized with the essential concepts required to understand the issues associated with globalization. In particular, we will address a set of topics including, why nations trade, how nations trade, how and why governments regulate international trade, the relationship between economic integration & labor markets, poverty, and environment

Unsaturated Fatty Acid Oil-Based Microdroplets: A Promising Novel Class of Microdroplets
Droplet-based microfluidics has rapidly advanced numerous fields, including chemistry, biology, materials science, medicine, food science, and cosmetics. In these systems, fluorocarbon oil combined with fluorinated surfactants is the preferred medium for fluid encapsulation, offering exceptional stability and biocompatibility essential for sensitive biological and chemical processes. However, growing concerns about the environmental and biological risks associated with fluorinated chemicals have prompted a search for alternatives.
This study is the first to explore the use of unsaturated fatty acids derived from emu oil for microdroplet formation. We characterized droplet formation based on flow rates and the presence non-fluorinated surfactant at a certain concentration using a fixed microchannel geometry. We demonstrate the feasibility of using this oil as an alternative in microdroplet applications, potentially reducing the risks associated with traditional fluorinated oils
