NEUE WERTE EINES NEUEN DESIGNS

Michael Speaks ist Dekan an der Universität des Kentuck Collge of Design und ehemaliger Gründungsvorstand des Metropolitan Research and Design Postgraduate Program der Sci-Arc in Los Angeles. Er leitet ebenfalls Big Soft Orange, eine niederländisch-amerikanische Stadtforschungsgruppe mit Standorten in Rotterdam und Los Angeles. Er war Herausgeber und Gründer des Kulturjournals Polygraph, sowie Mitherausgeber von Architecture New York und a+u (Tokyo), und arbeitet derzeit als beitragender Herausgeber für das Architecutral Record. Als Lehrer, Forscher und Herausgeber hat Speaks in zahlreichen Institutionen innerhalb der Vereinigten Staaten wie auch im Ausland mitgewirkt, darunter die Technischen Universität Delft, die Yale School of Arts, die Harvard University, die Columbia University, die University of Michigan, das Berlage Institut in Rotterdam und die University of California, Los Angeles. Außerhalb des Hörsaals hat der in Los Angeles lebende Schriftsteller und Kritiker sich in Vorträgen und Veröffentlichungen zur Kunst, Architektur, der Stadt- und Szenarienplanung geäußert. In jüngeren Diskussionen um die Rolle von Innovation und Prototypenentwicklung für das Design nimmt er eine zentrale Position ein und hat eine vielzahl einflussreicher Aufsätze geschrieben, welche auf die Bedeutung dessen verweisen, was er eine „Design Intelligence“ nennt

AlgR Directly Controls rsmA in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterial pathogen that can infect any human tissue. The lungs of cystic fibrosis patients become chronically infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Virulence factor gene expression is under elaborate regulatory control that remains poorly characterized. Understanding the regulatory hierarchy involved during infection is essential for identifying novel drug targets. RsmA is a post-transcriptional regulatory protein that controls expression of several virulence factors. Previous studies demonstrated alginate regulatory components AlgU and AlgR as regulators of rsmA expression. The aim of this study was to determine how AlgR controls rsmA expression. Western blot analysis of HA-tagged RsmA confirmed lower RsmA levels in an algR mutant. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay using purified AlgR demonstrated direct binding of AlgR to the rsmA promoter. These results indicate AlgR directly controls rsmA expression. We propose a mechanism whereby AlgR and AlgU work together to regulate rsmA

2021 Service Speaks Annual Conference Chapbook

Service Speaks is an annual conference that demonstrates the multitude of ways DePaul students work with community partners to advance social justice causes in Chicago communities. Each academic year, over 200 courses and programs send students into the community to lift up the assets of our community partners through community-based service learning (CbSL) and project-based classes, community internships and community-based research. These connections result in mutually beneficial outcomes for the community organization and provide transformational experiences for our students

Counter narratives: a phenomenological study of high achieving African American male high school students.

This dissertation examined the contributing factors to the success of high achieving African American male high school students who attend an all-male, predominantly Black, college-preparatory academy. The study took place in an urban, Midwestern school district and highlighted the lived experience and perspectives of students who have at least a 3.0 grade point average. Through the lens of Critical Race Theory, this study was an effort to bring attention to counter narratives to the otherwise deleterious image portrayed of African American males. The history and plight of the African American male is included to provide a comprehensive understanding of the African American experience. Critical examination of data revealed findings around school experiences; influential people; and subsequent perceptions, values, beliefs. The implications of these findings and potential future research are included in the latter portion of this dissertation
