Contaminant mixture dynamics and fate in an effluent dominated stream

Mianecki, Alyssa Lee

My last objective was to quantify complex mixtures in surface water and groundwater beneath Muddy Creek to assess the influence of the hyporheic zone. Surface water and groundwater samples were analyzed for a broad range of contaminants, including ions, pharmaceuticals, industrial products, pesticides, and PFAS. Non-ta...

Quantifying model selection uncertainty

Dajles, Andres David

In this thesis, we propose a bootstrap-based multimodel approach for the analysis of effect estimates in the context of linear regression. We utilize the nonparametric bootstrap to conduct the model selection procedure multiple times. At each iteration, we consider the bootstrap effect estimate from the model being sel...

Effect of in situ immunization with vidutolimod in an oral leukoplakia model

Xu, Yan

Immune therapy is a promising approach to treating malignancies, however, its effect on the prevention and treatment of premalignancies has been rarely studied. This study focuses on the immune signature of leukoplakia and explores whether stimulating the immune system with an immune adjuvant, vidutolimod, can prevent...
