Care Work in the Woodwork: Medicaid Home Care and Family Caregivers’ Health
(2021-09-16)Family caregivers provide the majority of eldercare in the United States, yet little is known about how eldercare policy affects their health. For several decades, research has shown that family caregivers experience ... -
The Careers of the Blind in Tokugawa Japan, 1603-1868
(2015-05-14)The blind deviate from bodily ideals and how we make sense of this difference matters. My dissertation examines the blind in Tokugawa Japan (1603–1868) to offer a contrasting perspective on disability from a non-Western ... -
A Careful Look at Binding Site Reorganization in the even-skipped Enhancers of Drosophila and Sepsids
(Public Library of Science, 2008) -
Caregiving as Moral Experience
(Elsevier, 2012) -
Caregiving: The Odyssey of Becoming More Human

Carotid bifurcation calcium and correlation with percent stenosis of the internal carotid artery on CT angiography
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2005)The aim of this paper was to determine the correlation between calcium burden (expressed as a volume) and extent of stenosis of the origin of the internal carotid artery (ICA) by CT angiography (CTA). Previous studies have ... -
Carrier Dynamics and Absorption Properties of Gold-Hyperdoped Germanium: Insight Into Tailoring Defect Energetics
(American Physical Society (APS), 2021-06-23)Hyperdoping germanium with gold is a potential method to produce room-temperature short-wavelength-infrared radiation (SWIR; 1.4–3.0 μm) photodetection. We investigate the charge carrier dynamics, light absorption, and ... -
The Cartographic Steppe: Mapping Environment and Ethnicity in Japan's Imperial Borderlands
(2016-09-09)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 ... -
Carving Out the Space of Conformal Field Theories
(2012-12-19)We study the constraints of conformal symmetry and unitarity in Conformal Field Theories (CFTs). Crossing symmetry of four-point functions implies universal bounds on operator dimensions and three-point function coefficients. ... -
Cascadable elastomer-based fluidic circuits for controlling soft robots
(2023-05-22)This dissertation explores the development of cascadable fluidic circuit elements that can be used to create highly functional controllers for soft robotics. The first chapter provides an overview of basic fluidic circuits ... -
Cascade of electronic transitions in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-06-11)Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) exhibits a rich variety of electronic states, including correlated insulators, superconductors, and topological phases. Understanding the microscopic mechanisms responsible for ... -
Cascades in the Dynamics of Measured Foliations
(Elsevier Masson, 2014-03-14) -
Cascading Activation Across Levels of Representation in Children's Lexical Processing
(Cambridge University Press, 2010)Recent work in adult psycholinguistics has demonstrated that activation of semantic representations begins long before phonological processing is complete. This incremental propagation of information across multiple levels ... -
Cascading to the MSSM
(Springer Verlag, 2008)The MSSM can arise as an orientifold of a pyramid-like quiver in the context of intersecting D-branes. Here we consider quiver realizations of the MSSM which can emerge at the bottom of a duality cascade. We classify all ... -
The Case Against the Fiscal Stimulus
(Harvard University, Harvard Law School, 2010) -
Case and Grammatical Relations
(Routledge, 2014)This chapter discusses the notions of morphological (surface) case and abstract Case, showing the empirical and theoretical motivation for each. The discussion of morphological case presents the dimensions of cross-linguistic ... -
Case for a700+GeVWIMP: Cosmic ray spectra from PAMELA, Fermi, and ATIC
(American Physical Society (APS), 2009)Multiple lines of evidence indicate an anomalous injection of high-energy e+- in the Galactic halo. The recent e+ fraction spectrum from the Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and Light-nuclei Astrophysics (PAMELA) ... -
The Case for Browser Provenance
(USENIX Association, 2009)In our increasingly networked world, web browsers are important applications. Originally an interface tool for accessing distributed documents, browsers have become ubiquitous, incorporating a significant portion of user ... -
The Case for Extensible Operating Systems
(1996)Many of the performance improvements cited in recent operating systems research describe specific enhancements to normal operating system functionality that improve performance in a set of designated test cases. Global ... -
The case for immigration
(American Sociological Association, 1994)
