    Whole Genome Imputation Panel of 624 Dogs

    No full text
    This dataset contains a compressed variant call file (VCF) and index file of phased, bi-allelic, single nucleotide variants (SNVs) from 624 dogs of various breeds that were used as a reference panel for imputation of low-pass whole-genome sequencing from 83 Great Danes. Also included is an Excel file containing breed information for each of the 624 dogs. The file contains data for all 38 canine autosomes and the X chromosome.Friedenberg, Steven; Clark, Leigh Anne; Murphy, Sarah; Greif, Elizabeth; Evans, Jacquelyn; Tsai, Kate. (2023).

    The Steven Lowenstein Collections documents professional activities of Steven Lowenstein, writer, researcher, historian, and teacher. Documents comprising the collection reflect his interests in a wide spectrum of topics related to Jews and Judaism, such as modernity and tradition and their influence on the religion and common folks; Berlin Jews of the upper strata; similarities and differences between agrarian/rural and urban Jews; popular and official Judaism; secular and religious Jews; and other Jewish related topics. However, there is a very small amount of materials related to his professional activities other than research and writing.There are two distinct types of materials – correspondence and manuscripts: Correspondence collected here pertain to Steven Lowenstein’s writings and publishing efforts; his teaching activities; conferences; writings by others; and research projects. Additional correspondence dealing with Steven Lowenstein’s editorial work, writings, and publishing efforts is found in Series II: Writings.Writings collected here range from large scale works to short essays, reviews and lectures. By and large, his manuscripts are accompanied by very extensive supplementary materials such as notes, research files, correspondence with publishers regarding publications and publication’s rights, small amount of correspondence with colleagues, and printed materials. Additionally, there are legal documents, such as agreements and permissions; small amount of printed materials, and photographs.Steven Lowenstein, scholar, teacher, and a writer was born in New York in 1945 into a family of German –Jewish refugees. He received his master’s degree from Princeton University in 1969 and went on earning a doctorate degree from Princeton University in 1972. He taught at a number of universities, including Columbia University and Monmouth College, and worked as a researcher at YIVO and the Leo Baeck Institute. In the late 1970s Dr. Lowenstein moved to California where he taught Jewish history at the American Jewish University. He is the author of a large number of scholarly works, including The Jewish Cultural Tapestry: International Jewish Folk Traditions; The Berlin Jewish Community: Enlightenment, Family and Crisis, 1770-1830; and Frankfurt on the Hudson: The German-Jewish Community of Washington Heights, 1933-1983, Its structure and Culture.digitize

    Steven Bryant’s Solace: a conductor’s analysis and performance guide

    No full text
    The purpose of this study was to examine Solace, a musical composition for wind ensemble, by Steven Bryant composed for the University of North Carolina at Greensboro Wind Ensemble and premiered at the 2013 College Band Directors National Association National Conference. Through a conductor's analysis and performance guide, the author provided insight and background knowledge to all future performers and interpreters of the work through unique first hand accounts from commission to premiere performance. The research method included three processes: 1. A detailed analysis of the musical score, 2. The observation of rehearsals and recording sessions during preparation for the premiere performance of Solace by the University of North Carolina at Greensboro Wind Ensemble, Kevin M. Geraldi, conductor, 3. Extensive interviews of Steven Bryant, composer and Kevin M. Geraldi, conductor. Through examination of prior research on electro-acoustic works for wind ensemble, the author examined Solace within those constructs. Because of the blurring of lines between electronics and acoustic sound, the author further identified Solace as a unique musical composition within the electro-acoustic genre

    Does the local food environment around schools affect diet? Longitudinal associations in adolescents attending secondary schools in East London.

    No full text
    BACKGROUND: The local retail food environment around schools may act as a potential risk factor for adolescent diet. However, international research utilising cross-sectional designs to investigate associations between retail food outlet proximity to schools and diet provides equivocal support for an effect. In this study we employ longitudinal perspectives in order to answer the following two questions. First, how has the local retail food environment around secondary schools changed over time and second, is this change associated with change in diet of students at these schools? METHODS: The locations of retail food outlets and schools in 2001 and 2005 were geo-coded in three London boroughs. Network analysis in a Geographic Information System (GIS) ascertained the number, minimum and median distances to food outlets within 400 m and 800 m of the school location. Outcome measures were 'healthy' and 'unhealthy' diet scores derived from adolescent self-reported data in the Research with East London Adolescents: Community Health Survey (RELACHS). Adjusted associations between distance from school to food retail outlets, counts of outlets near schools and diet scores were assessed using longitudinal (2001-2005 n=757) approaches. RESULTS: Between 2001 and 2005 the number of takeaways and grocers/convenience stores within 400 m of schools increased, with many more grocers reported within 800 m of schools in 2005 (p< 0.001). Longitudinal analyses showed a decrease of the mean healthy (-1.12, se 0.12) and unhealthy (-0.48, se 0.16) diet scores. There were significant positive relationships between the distances travelled to grocers and healthy diet scores though effects were very small (0.003, 95%CI 0.001 - 0.006). Significant negative relationships between proximity to takeaways and unhealthy diet scores also resulted in small parameter estimates. CONCLUSIONS: The results provide some evidence that the local food environment around secondary schools may influence adolescent diet, though effects were small. Further research on adolescents' food purchasing habits with larger samples in varied geographic regions is required to identify robust relationships between proximity and diet, as small numbers, because of confounding, may dilute effect food environment effects. Data on individual foods purchased in all shop formats may clarify the frequent, overly simple classification of grocers as 'healthy'
