New Zealand Photobook of the Year 2015
No full textMy Photobook From Certainty to Doubt won the trade published category of the New Zealand Photobook of the Year 2015. The project contains three different publications, each being a version of the same publication with variations around the sequencing and additional material - so it is unclear which is the 'real' version. This makes each publication meaningful in itself while setting up a conversation amongst all three, including ideas around selection and editing of content. The covers of all three publications merge into each other when stacked, playing out further notions of mimicry and uncertainty

Effect of physically structured water produced by nano-tourmaline impregnated ceramic beads on improving extractability of caffeine, curcumin and oil emulsification
Get PDFBiological invasions happen either deliberately or accidentally and are considered as serious threats to the biodiversity and its irreversible impact to the biodiversity is second only to the habitat loss. Thirty common IAS of plants were selected and the study inquired whether the local people were well aware about IAS of flora and if so, whether these species have badly
influenced the environment and farming activities and its distribution in Galigamuwa area.
Primary data were collected through a pretested self-administered questionnaire and 65 households were selected by using Multi stage random sampling technique. Analysis was carried out based on descriptive statistics together with graphical interpretation
Internalization: Acute apoptosis of breast cancer cells using Herceptin-Immobilized gold nanoparticles
Get PDFHerceptin, the monoclonal antibody, was successfully immobilized on gold nanoparticles (GNPs) to improve their precise interactions with breast cancer cells (SK-BR3). The mean size of the GNPs (29 nm), as determined by dynamic light scattering, enlarged to 82 nm after herceptin immobilization. The in vitro cell culture experiment indicated that human skin cells (FB) proliferated well in the presence of herceptin-conjugated GNP (GNP-Her), while most of the breast cancer cells (SK-BR3) had died. To elucidate the mechanism of cell death, the interaction of breast cancer cells with GNP-Her was tracked by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Consequently, GNP-Her was found to be bound precisely to the membrane of the breast cancer cell, which became almost saturated after 6 hours incubation. This shows that the progression signal of SK-BR3 cells is retarded completely by the precise binding of antibody to the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 receptor of the breast cancer cell membrane, causing cell death
An epistemology for interprofessional practice: exploring thinking and reasoning in health and social care
Get PDFPostgraduate professional education assists practitioners in gaining advanced knowledge and skills to more capably respond to the demands of rapidly changing and increasingly complex health and social care practice environments. The postgraduate programme in the Centre for Health and Social Practice at Waikato Institute of Technology begins this capability development by assisting practitioners to achieve a deeper understanding of how they think and reason in practice and recognise how they use and value sources of information in this process of reasoning. One of the challenges for interprofessional education at the postgraduate level is re-focusing the thinking of people whose undergraduate education has been taught within disciplinary silos such as nursing, social work, counselling, midwifery, occupational therapy, physiotherapy and teaching. Finding common ground for thinking and reasoning in practice that pays attention to the particular emphases of each profession and yet provides a common framework for reasoning in practice in an interprofessional context has been a challenge underpinning capability development for these experienced practitioners. (how to take them beyond what they have known)The conceptual framework for an interprofessional practice epistemology in this programme engages students in learning activities enabling them to conceptualise reasoning in practice within three strands, including propositional/empirical, experiential/embodied, situational/relational knowing. While all three elements of this framework have value in practice, different practitioners will foreground and background aspects of the framework, depending on the focus of their approach with a particular client or family. This presentation explores the experience of engaging postgraduate practitioners in teaching and learning activities to examine an interprofessional epistemology for practice development
