Xiaoqiang Chen DEVELOPING LIGHT- RESPONSIVE DRUG CARRIERS and DIAGNOSTIC SENSORS
Developing Light- Responsive Drug Carriers and Diagnostic Sensors Dr Xiaoqiang Chen DEVELOPING LIGHT- RESPONSIVE DRUG CARRIERS AND DIAGNOSTIC SENSORS Delivering drugs to their target site and conducting medical diagnostics non-invasively are two major goals of biomedical researchers across the globe. Dr Xiaoqiang Chen and his team of scientists at Nanjing Tech University in China are developing advanced materials and procedures that can keep drugs protected before they reach their target site in the body. The group is also developing materials that can be used to detect certain substances in the body, towards providing non-invasive diagnostic tools for clinicians. Drug Delivery and Diagnostics in a more controlled manner at its intended site. At the same time, the Developing new ways of administering team is also developing biological drugs to where they are required in sensors that can monitor cell activity in the body is a challenging pursuit. For a non-invasive manner. instance, drug molecules not only need to reach their target site, but must also Central to Dr Chen’s research is the be protected in order to survive the study of how light interacts with body’s natural defences along the way. molecules.

Dissertation Advisor: Ian Jared Miller Sakura Marcelle Christmas The Cartographic Steppe: Mapping Environment and Ethnicity in Japan’s Imperial Borderlands ABSTRACT This dissertation traces one of the origins of the autonomous region system in the People’s Republic of China to the Japanese imperial project by focusing on Inner Mongolia in the 1930s. Here, Japanese technocrats demarcated the borderlands through categories of ethnicity and livelihood. At the center of this endeavor was the perceived problem of nomadic decline: the loss of the region’s deep history of transhumance to Chinese agricultural expansion and capitalist extraction. -
Enzymes Are Nature's Catalysts, Featuring High Reactivity, Selectivity
************************* Report Title************************************* Dr. Yao Chen Full Professor personal State Key Laboratory of Medicinal photograph Chemical Biology College of Pharmacy Nankai University Tianjin, China 300071 Phone: 01186-18222132527 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Enzymes are nature’s catalysts, featuring high reactivity, selectivity, and specificity under mild conditions. Enzymatic catalysis has long been of great interest to chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. However, the use of enzymes for industrial applications is often handicapped by their low operational stability, difficult recovery, and lack of reusability under operational conditions. Immobilization of enzymes on solid supports can enhance enzyme stability as well as facilitate separation and recovery for reuse while maintaining activity and selectivity. As new classes of crystalline solid- state materials, porous frameworks materials (such as covalent-organic frameworks, COFs and metal-organic frameworks, MOFs) feature high surface area, tunable pore size, high stability, and easily tailored functionality, which entitle them as ideal supports for encapsulation of biomolecules to form novel composite materials for various applications. Our researches mainly focus on their biocatalysis, biomimetic and medicinal applications. This novel platform based on those biomolecule-incorporation composite materials exhibited various functionality and superior separation efficiency, biocatalytic performances and great potentials on biopharmaceutical formulations. Brief Biography Dr. Yao Chen obtained master degree from Nanjing Tech University, then obtained Ph.D degree from University of South Florida. After finished a posdoc training at UC San Diego, she moved back to China, and is now a full professor of State Key Laboratory of Medicinal Chemical Biology and College of Pharmacy at Nankai University. Her research interest mostly focuses on incorporating biomolecule into porous supports (e.g. -

Out of the many facets of the wholesale metamorphosis of Chinese society that characterized this era, I focus on the development of an increasingly bureaucratic and autocratic state, the emergence of a semi-autonomous local elite, and the impact on both trends of the rise of the great steppe empires that encircled and, under the Mongols ultimately extinguished the Song. The rapid evolution of Inner Asian state formation in the tenth through the thirteenth centuries not only swayed the development of the Chinese state, by putting questions of war and peace at the forefront of the court’s attention; it also influenced the evolution of China’s socio-political elite, by shap- ing the context within which elite families forged their sense of coorporate identity and calibrated their commitment to the court. -

THE INTERACTION BETWEEN ETHNIC RELATIONS AND STATE POWER: A STRUCTURAL IMPEDIMENT TO THE INDUSTRIALIZATION OF CHINA, 1850-1911 by WEI LI Under the Direction of Toshi Kii ABSTRACT The case of late Qing China is of great importance to theories of economic development. This study examines the question of why China’s industrialization was slow between 1865 and 1895 as compared to contemporary Japan’s. Industrialization is measured on four dimensions: sea transport, railway, communications, and the cotton textile industry. I trace the difference between China’s and Japan’s industrialization to government leadership, which includes three aspects: direct governmental investment, government policies at the macro-level, and specific measures and actions to assist selected companies and industries. -
Synthesis, Magnetism and Photoluminescence of Mn Doped Aln Nanowires

Read Full License Page 2/22 Abstract Manganese doped aluminum nitride (AlN:Mn) nanowires were fabricated by direct nitridation of Al and Mn mixed powders. The as-synthesized AlN:Mn nanowires were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The measurements reveal the successful incorporation of Mn2+ ions into AlN nanowires. The magnetic and optical properties of the AlN:Mn nanowires were studied using vibrating sample magnetometer and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The AlN:Mn nanowires exhibit room temperature ferromagnetic behavior and a red emission band centered at 597 nm corresponding to 4 4 6 6 2+ the T1( G)- A1( S) transition of Mn . The abnormal thermal quenching behavior and long afterglow feature are investigated through the temperature dependent emission and the afterglow spectrum. The thermoluminescence curve shows that AlN: Mn nanowires have a wide trap distribution, which leads to the abnormal thermal quenching behavior and persistent luminescence. -

Sturman, whose guidance, patience, and confidence in me have made my doctoral journey not only possible but also enjoyable. It is thanks to him that I was able to transcend the difficulties of academic work and find pleasure in reading, writing, painting, and calligraphy. As a role model, Professor Sturman taught me how to be an artful recluse like the Jiangnan literati. I am also greatly appreciative for the encouragement and counsel of Professor Hui-shu Lee. Without her valuable suggestions from its earliest stage, this project would never have taken shape. I would like to express appreciation to Professor Miriam Wattles for insightful comments and thought-provoking discussions that helped me to consider the issues of portraiture in a broader East Asian context. -
