  • Gene Expression Studies: from Case-Control to Multiple-Population-Based Studies
    From the Institute of Human Genetics, Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen,¨ Deutsches Forschungszentrum fur¨ Gesundheit und Umwelt (GmbH) Head: Prof. Dr. Thomas Meitinger Gene expression studies: From case-control to multiple-population-based studies Thesis Submitted for a Doctoral Degree in Natural Sciences at the Faculty of Medicine, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat¨ Munchen¨ Katharina Schramm Dachau, Germany 2016 With approval of the Faculty of Medicine Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit¨atM ¨unchen Supervisor/Examiner: Prof. Dr. Thomas Illig Co-Examiners: Prof. Dr. Roland Kappler Dean: Prof. Dr. med. dent. Reinhard Hickel Date of oral examination: 22.12.2016 II Dedicated to my family. III Abstract Recent technological developments allow genome-wide scans of gene expression levels. The reduction of costs and increasing parallelization of processing enable the quantification of 47,000 transcripts in up to twelve samples on a single microarray. Thereby the data collec- tion of large population-based studies was improved. During my PhD, I first developed a workflow for the statistical analyses of case-control stu- dies of up to 50 samples. With large population-based data sets generated I established a pipeline for quality control, data preprocessing and correction for confounders, which re- sulted in substantially improved data. In total, I processed more than 3,000 genome-wide expression profiles using the generated pipeline. With 993 whole blood samples from the population-based KORA (Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg) study we established one of the largest population-based resource. Using this data set we contributed to a number of transcriptome-wide association studies within national (MetaXpress) and international (CHARGE) consortia.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by the MRC Human Genetics Unit at The
    Written evidence submitted by the MRC Human Genetics Unit at the University of Edinburgh and the MRC Protein Phosphorylation and Ubiquitylation Unit at the University of Dundee (USC0001) We write in response to the UK Parliament Scottish Affairs Committee’s Call for Evidence in relation to Universities and Scotland. Our evidence pertains to “How Scottish university research fits in with UK university research”. We write as the directors of two UKRI Medical Research Council (MRC) Units based in Scottish Universities; the MRC Human Genetics Unit at the University of Edinburgh (https://www.ed.ac.uk/mrc-human-genetics-unit) and the MRC Protein Phosphorylation and Ubiquitylation Unit at the University of Dundee (https://www.ppu.mrc.ac.uk). As part of UKRI, the MRC invests 40% of its annual budget on an intramural portfolio of institutes, units and centres. MRC Units are long term investments that tackle important, often high risk, research questions that cannot be addressed adequately through short-term response-mode grant funding. MRC Units develop new methods and research facilities, foster interdisciplinarity, and spearhead training of the next generation of research leaders. Most MRC Units are embedded within universities (MRC University Units) and, because of the scale and sustainability of their research funding - reviewed and renewed every 5 years, they have a major impact on the research landscape of the universities that they are embedded in, including in Scotland. The scale and quality of research funded in MRC Units greatly enhances academic leadership within the host university as well as the Research Excellence Grant (REG) income that the host university receives from the Scottish Funding Council.

Land Smith A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ENGLISH CALGARY, ALBERTA JANUARY, 2021 © Mallory E. Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.

  • The Chronicle 2015-2016
    St Hugh’s College Oxford A record of news, events and achievements within the St Hugh’s College community for the academic year 2015-16 CHRONICLE October 2015 - September 2016 ST HUGH’S COLLEGE CHRONICLE 2015-16 Editorial Helen Popescu (English, 2006), Publications Officer The writing of this Editorial could not come at a more appropriate time for me. In the ten years since I matriculated, I have been fortunate to remain involved with College throughout. Now, as I prepare to leave my role as Publications Officer, it is a great pleasure to reflect on how the College has evolved and grown in this time. I hope that this Chronicle evinces some of the great strengths of the past academic year, and gives reason to trust that these can be matched and surpassed in the year to come. Many of the reports in the Chronicle, and particularly those of the JCR and MCR, celebrate the diversity of human experience generated by bringing together gifted students from an enormous variety of backgrounds. This has always been, and must remain, the core of College’s purpose, especially when the uncertainty following the decision for the UK to leave the European Union has been so pervasive. This year’s ‘Articles by Alumni’ focus on unusual paths taken after leaving College. If I could share any advice with my first year undergraduate self, it would be that choosing an uncommon career trajectory, although daunting, is also incredibly gratifying. It was such a delight this year to receive many reports of our alumni’s achievements in a variety of different fields – thank you to all those of you who shared your news.
