Author interview: Q and A with Dr Noni Stacey on Photography of protest and community: the radical collectives of the 1970s
In this author interview, we speak to Dr Noni Stacey about her new book Photography of Protest and Community: The Radical Collectives of the 1970s, which examines how London-based photographers formed collectives that engaged with local and international political protest in cities across the UK. The book surveys the radical community photography produced by Hackney Flashers Collective, Exit Photography Group, Half Moon Photography Workshop, the producers of Camerawork magazine and the community darkrooms, North Paddington Community Darkroom and Blackfriars Photography Project

Can forests meet our energy needs? The future of forest biomass in Colorado
Presented at the Can forests meet our energy needs? The future of forest biomass in Colorado conference, February 21, 2008, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado.Stacey Simms is the Biomass and Local Fuels Programs Manager at the Governor's Energy Office (GEO). In this position she has development, administrative and managerial responsibilities of projects related to woody biomass, anaerobic digestion and biofuels. Prior to joining GEO, Stacey worked at the American Lung Association of Colorado where she managed the Department of Energy's CLEAN CITIES program. While with CLEAN CITIES, Stacey supported the transition of more than 30 fleets in Colorado to biofuels and helped replace 1 billion gallons of fossil fuels with alternative fuels. Stacey started her career in renewable energy and public administration during her four year tour with the Peace Corps in El Salvador. Stacey graduated from Regis University in 2006 where she earned a Master's degree in Management with an emphasis on organizational leadership and project management
State fragmentation and citizen education: creating a culture of citizenship in Bogotá, Colombia
My dissertation is an ethnography of governance in Colombia. I argue that despite widespread understandings of the Colombian state as failed, it actually plays an important role in the everyday lives of citizens. I argue that the Colombian state continues to govern through two key mechanisms:1. the rapid construction of state institutions and policies that clutter symbolic and physical space 2. the education of citizens such that they learn to be active participants in providing services traditionally forthcoming from the state, like security and justice. I explore how these interconnected processes of state and citizen formation are articulated through citizen culture, a novel crime reduction policy that has turned the capital city of Bogotá into an international model of best governance practices.Ph.D.Includes abstractVitaby Stacey Leigh HuntIncludes bibliographical reference
Conjuring our beings: Stacey Gillian Abe and Immy Mali in conversational partnership
The series of Conversational Partnerships began in 2017 in African Arts vol. 50, no. 2, with a conversation between two artists: Eria Nsubuga SANE from Uganda and Sikhumbuzo Makandula from South Africa. The format of a “conversational partnership” (Rubin and Rubin 2012: 7) emphasizes the cocreation of meaning by the interviewer and interviewee as coauthors. This enables a move away from the art history format of the interviewer (usually a writer) assuming the role of the sole author and the interviewee (often an artist) having no status as an author despite the fact that her or his practice-led creation of knowledge is foundational to the content of the interview. Stacey Gillian Abe and Immy Mali participated in a joint artists' residency as part of the RAW program at Rhodes University in South Africa from November to December 2017. During this time, they engaged with each other's practice-led work, and they created this conversational partnership at a writing breakaway in the Eastern Cape
Psycho-Behavioral Contributors of Sexual Victimization Among Adolescents
ABSTRACT Psycho-Behavioral Contributors of Sexual Victimization Among Adolescents By Stacey Melissa Gutierrez Sexual victimization is an issue of concern that continues to affect entire communities. Specifically, adolescents are one of the most vulnerable groups in society due to undeveloped cognitive functions making this age group susceptible to manipulation and harassment. This project sheds insight on the long term effects of sexual victimization and two independent psycho-behavioral themes identified as cognitive features and physical displays of behavior that contribute to the issue of sexual victimization among adolescents. The findings demonstrate that there is a strong cause and effect link between both psychological components and behavioral factors leading to sexual victimization. Within the category of psychological components are cognitive attitudes, risk perceptions and emotions, internal characteristics (i.e. PTSD, depression, anxiety, and self-blame). Among behavioral factors, the themes of sexual assertiveness and expression of anger were also examined to determine their relationship to sexual victimization. Additionally, this project carries out an evaluation of educational interventions that target sexual victimization among adolescents. The impacts of these programs on sexual victimization and violence have proven to be noteworthy in spreading awareness and knowledge on sexual victimization throughout society. Lastly, many policies in place targeting sexual victimization do not help carry out education, prevention, and awareness services to families who are not at risk but would also benefit from these services. More focus should be placed on prevention, along with new policies that offer services to all children and adolescents and not only those at risk
Book review: Photography of protest and community: the radical collectives of the 1970s by Noni Stacey
In Photography of Protest and Community: The Radical Collectives of the 1970s, Noni Stacey shows how a 1970s network of London-based photography collectives raised fundamental questions about the politics of photography, the role and responsibilities of photographers in relation to local communities and the uses of photography in the context of social activism. This book is a welcome addition to the expanding field of research on the photography of protest, writes Mathilde Bertrand, contributing to the ongoing documentation of this strong current in British photographic history. If you are interested in this book review, you can read an LSE RB interview with author Dr Noni Stacey.

A snapshot of the Artemia genome: to code or not to code
The Waksman Student Scholars Program, along with the Introduction to Molecular Biology and Biochemical Research class, were responsible for the publication of 628 Artemia sequences. Surprisingly, 361 of these sequences (58%) did not contain an open reading frame larger than 80 residues. It was originally presumed that this was due to a high level of genomic DNA contamination. While it is possible that some of our Artemia sequences are genomic contamination, I believe a large majority of our non-coding sequences are long non-coding RNA (ncRNA), newly recognized players in transcriptional regulation. This high percentage of non-coding sequences is reasonable,
as other genomic studies indicate about 50% of an organism’s RNA is non-coding. Our average non-coding sequence length was 600nt, significantly longer than our average Artemia 3’UTR length of 175nt, which can easily be explained if we acknowledge these sequences as long non-coding RNAs. Many of our non-coding RNAs also contain polyA tails, as well as polyadenylation signals. Considering many ncRNAs are polyadenylated, this data supports my hypothesis. Fifty-two percent of our non-coding sequences match
other Artemia sequences in NCBI, and of these matches, 33% are in the reverse direction. Transcription in the reverse direction is a method used by ncRNA to inhibit gene transcription.
In addition to my analysis of the 628 analyzed Artemia sequences, I used DNASTAR software to analyze all 5,947 Artemia sequences generated from 2005 through 2008. This software validated sequence quality and assembled similar sequences into 2,848 contiguous sequences. These contiguous sequences were further processed using Blast2GO, a gene ontology tool, where only 268 contiguous sequences were of high
enough quality to be considered annotated genes. These genes were further characterized according to their Gene Ontology.M.S.Includes bibliographical references (p. 60-62)by Stacey Lynn Witti
A Systematic Review of Sensory-Based Autism Subtypes
Abstract
Date Presented 4/1/2017
This systematic review summarizes current literature on sensory-based subtypes within the autism population. Examination of subtypes provides an opportunity for practitioners to consider how profiling sensory processing characteristics could be useful for diagnosis and treatment planning.
