The problems associated with environmental- and public-health data are that (1) geospatial components of the data are not considered in analysis and decision making process, (2) meaningful geospatial patterns and clusters are often overlooked,

The gradual deterioration and failure of old buildings, bridges and other civil engineering structures invoked the need for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems to develop a means to monitor the health of structures. Dozens of sensing, processing and monitoring mechanisms have been implemented and widely deployed with wired sensors. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs), on the other hand, are networks of large numbers of low cost wireless sensor nodes that communicate through a wireless media.

Problems that are parallelizable enable researchers to maximize the computing resources available for a problem, and thus push the limits of the problems that can be solved. Solving any particular problem in parallel will require some very important design decisions to be made. These decisions ma

In the field of environmental epidemiology, there is a great deal of care required in constructing models that accurately estimate the effects of environmental exposures on human health. This is because the nature of the data that is available to researchers to estimate these effects is almost always observational in nature, making it difficult to adequately control for all potential confounders - both measured and unmeasured. Here, we tackle three different problems in which the goal is to accurately estimate the effect of an environmental exposure on various health outcomes.

Technology has introduced better and safer ways of storing these records, namely, through the use of Personal Health Records (PHRs). With time, different types of PHRs have emerged, i.e. local, remote server-based, and hybrid PHRs.

The Appalachian Mountains are home to some of the most culturally rich places in the United States, but also some of the most impoverished communities as well. Several recent events support climate change across the globe. It is expected that Appalachian communities may suffer more dire consequences, as many communities lack strategies to help relieve some of the worst effects of climate change. Heatwaves are predicted to increase in duration and frequency over time, and communities that are not well prepared for the damaging effects of heatwaves can suffer unduly. This study aims to quantify

Limited research has been performed in Ontario to ascertain risk factors for West Nile Virus (WNV) and to develop a unified risk prediction strategy. The aim of the current body of work was to use spatio-temporal modelling in conjunction with surveillance and environmental data to determine which pre-WNV season factors could forecast a high risk season and to explore how well mosquito surveillance data could predict human cases in space and time during the WNV season. Generalized linear mixed modelling found that mean minimum monthly temperature variables and annual WNV-positive mosquito pools

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology, 2008.<br>Includes bibliographical references.<br>Developing a consensus on how to model neural and behavioral responses and to quantify important response properties is a challenging signal processing problem because models do not always adequately capture the data and different methods often yield different estimates of the same response property. The threshold, the first stimulus level for which a difference between baseline activity and stimulus-driven activity exists, is an example of such a response property for both

A thesis submitted to the College of Dental Medicine of Nova Southeastern University of the degree of Master of Science in Dentistry. Background. Earlier research evaluated the 3D internal fit of CAD/CAM crowns after direct versus indirect laser scanning. To date, no study has evaluated the marginal integrity of all-ceramic crowns milled with different type of scanning systems via different methods of scanning. The purpose of This study was conducted to assess the marginal integrity of all-ceramic crowns milled with the E4D CAD/CAM system (D4D, Richardson, Texas) using three different scanning

<p> The coastal watersheds around Massachusetts Bay are home to millions of people, many of whom recreate in coastal waters and consume locally harvested shellfish. Epidemiological data on food-borne illness and illnesses associated with recreational water exposure are known to be incomplete. Of major food categories, seafood has the highest recorded rate of associated foodborne illness. In total, the health impacts from these marine-sourced risks are estimated to cost millions of dollars each year in medical expenses or lost productivity. When recorded epidemiological data is incomplete it ma

Background: Work related stress, depression and anxiety are common. Despite evidence that these problems can be successfully treated in the workplace, take-up of psychological treatments by workers is low, resulting in many going untreated. One way to address this may be through the use of digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) in the workplace, but there is a lack of information about their appeal and effectiveness. Research questions: 1. What is the evidence for delivering DMHIs in the workplace? 2. What are the advantages and disadvantages to delivering DMHIs in the workplace? 3. What
