Does the church in Scotland still need theology?
In this paper, which was highly commended by the Fraser Prize 2013 Reading Panel, Jason Radcliff argues that the church should be theologically conditioned as the Body and Bride of Christ. Following Athanasius, Dr Radcliff argues that theology is the work of the Spirit who enables human understanding of God, allowing us, as Calvin maintained, to be ourselves. He concludes by emphasizing the necessity of theology in preaching and in discussions regarding the nature of ministry.Publisher PD

A Reformed asceticism
Jason Radcliff argues for the possibility of a Reformed asceticism, not as a condition of salvation, but as a form of life. He provides evidence from the Bible, particularly the thought of the apostle Paul, as well as from the work of Athanasius and the Scottish theologians T. F. Torrance and Henry Scougal. He argues that asceticism has much to offer the contemporary ecclesiastical situation and deserves to be recovered by the Reformed community.Publisher PD

T.F. Torrance and the Consensus Patrum: a reformed, evangelical, and ecumenical reconstruction of the Church Fathers
This thesis offers a constructive engagement with T.F. Torrance’s theological
reading of the patristic tradition. It argues that Torrance reconstructs the Fathers
into a Consensus Patrum, or “Consensus of the Fathers” consisting of
catholic/ecumenical themes and figures. Torrance’s consensus is a creative attempt
to produce a Reformed and evangelical version of the consensus which involves
significant changes to both standard readings of the Fathers in other approaches to
the consensus and Torrance’s own Reformed evangelical tradition. It is unique
among other interpreters of the Fathers and ecumenically relevant, offering much
to contemporary theology in both substance and method. In order to view
Torrance’s project in historical context this thesis examines the notion of the
consensus as found in historical Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Protestant
theology. Each tradition has a lens through which they view the Fathers: Aquinas
for the Roman Catholics, Palamas for the Orthodox, Augustinian themes for the
Reformers, and “de‐Hellenization” for liberal Protestants. This thesis places
Torrance’s project within other contemporary retrievals of the church Fathers
arguing for its uniqueness as a distinctively Reformed evangelical approach to the
Fathers on their own terms. It inspects the Torrancian consensus exploring its
consistence of a Reformed and evangelical approach to patristic themes and
figures, rooted in the primary theme of the Nicene ὁμοούσιον and the primary
figure of Athanasius of Alexandria. It examines Torrance’s creative reconstruction
of the Fathers into a Reformed evangelical consensus and points to his constructive
achievements demonstrating that Torrance’s approach is ecumenically relevant, as
seen particularly in his work in the Reformed‐Orthodox Dialogue. A critical
adoption of the Torrancian consensus is proposed in conclusion

Jason vs GIJOE
Thesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2019Jason vs GI JOE is partly an exercise in autobiography, an experiment in relational aesthetics, and an interdisciplinary artist project at the intersection of comic books, creative writing and performance art. This comic book, Jason vs. GIJOE, is a postmodern double erasure, based on the comic book GIJOE: Cobra II (Issue 1). The original pictures from the comic book have been removed, and replaced by a series of short narratives, describing autobiographical events from the life of the author: me, Jason. Speech bubbles from the original have been left to comment back over top of the stories, obscuring meaning but creating moments of unplanned dialogue. The comic is a readymade, twice erased: once to replace the drawings of the initial comic, and again when using the original dialogue bubbles to speak back to the narrative

The people behind the papers – Jason Ko and Daniel Lobo
Planarians grow when they are fed and shrink during periods of starvation. However, it is unclear how they maintain appropriate body proportions as their size changes. A new paper in Development investigates the differences between growth and shrinkage dynamics and builds a mathematical model to explore the mechanisms underpinning these two processes. To learn more about the story behind the paper, we caught up with first author, Jason Ko, and corresponding author, Daniel Lobo, Associate Professor at the University of Maryland.https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.20298
