Abstract:
This thesis traces the paths and trajectories that one substance - the plant stimulant Catha edulis (Forssk.), known in Kenya as 'miraa' - takes in the course of its 'social life' from production, through exchange, to its points of consumption. The thesis attempts to draw out the richness in this social life through an in-depth ethnographic examination of these trajectories, emphasising in particular their socially-embedded nature. By following an approach influenced by the volume The social life of things (Appadurai [ed.] 1986) the thesis is able to tease out much of the significance the subs

Abstract:
miRNAs are non-coding RNAs of approx. 22 nucleotides in length that inhibit gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. By virtue of this gene regulation mechanism, miRNAs play a critical role in several biological processes and patho-physiological conditions, including cancers. miRNA behavior is a result of a multi-level complex interaction network involving miRNA-mRNA, TF-miRNA-gene, and miRNA-chemical interactions; hence the precise patterns through which a miRNA regulates a certain disease(s) are still elusive.

Genes which are regulated by a miRNA are called targets of this given miRNA. Hence, the task is to try to determine which miRNAs regulate which genes, in order then to build a network of these DNA components

Abstract:
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding small RNAs, which have been found to regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional and translational levels. A lot of studies demonstrated that miRNAs regulate various cellular processes, including differentiation, development, aging, apoptosis, oncogenesis and metabolism. Moreover, dysregulation of specific miRNAs is associated with a variety of diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders. Identification of differenzial pattern expression of miRNAs could be of value for development of novel biomarkers and discovery of new pharmacological targets fo

Abstract:
Pharmacogenetics (PGx) aims at the definition of predictive and prognostic genetic biomarkers that can help clinicians in treatment tailoring. In this thesis, we explored two emerging topics in PGx: SNPs affecting the activity and maturation of a class of non coding RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), and immunogenetics. Genetic analyses were performed by a medium throughput technology, Veracode technology (Illumina). The clinical model of this study is represented by the locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Specifically, the main two aims of this study were: 1. the identification of predictive bioma

Abstract:
Reticulitermes flavipes is one of the most common termite species in the world, and has been an intriguing research model due to its ecological and biological and economic significance. The fundamental biological question addressed by this study is to elucidate the role of miRNAs in termite development and how miRNA can influence labor division. miRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that have an important role in gene regulation at post-transcriptional level, and can potentially be involved in the regulation of caste polyphenism. Using a computational approach, I identified 167 conserved and 33 nov

Abstract:
This thesis describes the development of a red tip/tilt and fringe detection system at the Sydney University Stellar Interferometer (SUSI), modelling the instrumental performance and effects of seeing at SUSI, making observations of Mira variable stars and finally modelling the atmospheres of Mira variables with physically self-consistent models. The new SUSI tip/tilt system is based around a CCD detector and has been successfully used to both track the majority of tip/tilt power in median seeing at an R magnitude of 4.5, and to provide seeing measures for post processing.
