SUMMARY:Presentation:Contributions to nonparametric quantile analysis and quantile-based mediation analysis\, with applications to lifecourse analysis in human biology
DESCRIPTION:This thesis develops and assesses new ways to study the conditional quantiles of a population using a sample of data that represents the population.  All methods presented here build on a recently-proposed non-parametric approach to quantile regression that is analogous to local linear regression in the least-squares setting.  A major challenge is that the raw local quantile estimates are cumbersome to interpret and gain insight from directly.  Aiming to overcome this challenge\, there are four main contributions herein.  First\, we demonstrate how a low-rank additive regression analysis can produce insight into a collection of local nonparametric quantile estimates.  The low rank structure regularizes the noisy quantile estimates and facilitates interpretation of the findings.  Second\, we show how a multivariate dimension reduction approach provides a different type of insight into a collection of estimated conditional quantile functions.  The third contribution of the thesis leverages the combination of nonparametric quantile estimation and low-rank regression in the context of mediation analysis.  We show that this produces a novel quantile-based approach to mediation analysis that expresses direct and indirect effects in a concise and interpretable way.  The final methodological contribution of the thesis is a framework for moment-based estimation of conditional covariance functions for stochastic processes.  Throughout the thesis\, we motivate our work through analyses looking at the proximal and distal factors predicting human blood pressure.

SUMMARY:Presentation:A Multicellular\, Biomaterial-based Platform for the Engineering of Vascularized Bone
DESCRIPTION:Cell-based tissue engineering offers the potential to greatly improve the treatment of large and complex bone defects by addressing the main shortcomings associated with current bone grafting procedures. A main challenge is the ischemic environment that can result from traumatic bone injury\, resulting in the death of transplanted cells and tissue constructs. Achieving an adequate vascular supply is a critical barrier preventing the translational success of cell-based regeneration approaches. Therefore\, a variety of strategies have been developed to prevascularize engineered tissue constructs prior to transplantation. Adult mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) and endothelial cells (EC) are key players in native orthopaedic tissue regeneration and vascularization\, and represent promising cell types for tissue engineering strategies to create vascularized bone. However\, to effectively harness the regenerative potential of MSC\, the appropriate phenotype must be achieved before implantation. A main challenge in engineering vascularized bone tissue is creating an appropriate culture environment to support multiple cell phenotypes. Therefore\, this work focuses on designing a cell-based\, biomaterial-enabled strategy that provides spatiotemporal control of key microenvironmental cues to support the co-development of osseous and vascular tissues\, with the end goal of generating vascularized\, bone-forming constructs.\n\nFirst\, this thesis explores how temporal control of the culture environment can be used to maintain preformed vessels and subsequent osteogenic development in engineered tissue constructs. To mimic the sequential process of native bone development\, in which vascularization precedes tissue ossification\, we generated cell-laden hydrogel constructs cultured in vasculogenic growth medium to induce vessel development\, and subsequently supplemented the medium with osteoinductive components to promote osteogenic differentiation. Our results revealed conflicting effects of the two culture environments\, in which osteoinductive factors compromised cellular viability and MSC pericyte-like function\, leading to ~93% regression of preformed vessels. Further\, vasculogenic culture conditions inhibited MSC-mediated matrix mineralization as evidenced by impaired calcium deposition.\n\nNext\, this thesis describes the development and characterization of a modular biomaterial approach that provides control of discrete environmental properties designed to promote vasculogenic and osteogenic tissue development. Separate populations of cell-laden microtissues were fabricated and independently cultured under specific differentiation conditions to support either osteogenic or pericyte-like lineage commitment of MSC. This approach enabled the formation of primitive osteogenic microtissues exhibiting mineralization of the extracellular matrix\, and vascular microtissues with demonstrated EC sprouting potential. The combination of microtissues led to the generation of a multiphase construct that supported extensive vessel development. While osteogenic activity was maintained without exogenous osteoinductive factors\, the vasculogenic culture environment was not conducive for sustained mineralization.\n\nLastly\, this thesis describes a novel approach incorporating the modular biomaterial platform with a biomimetic induction process emulating the native endochondral ossification (EO) pathway to better couple vascular and osteogenic tissue development. Chondrogenically-primed MSC were matured to hypertrophy to form hypertrophic pellets resembling EO\, as evidenced by MMP-mediated remodeling and mineralization of the formed cartilaginous matrix. Hypertrophic induction of MSC was associated with secretion of distinct angiogenic factors which stimulated EC vasculogenesis. When combined with vasculogenic microtissues\, hypertrophic pellets supported robust vessel development and cell-mediated mineralization without exogenous vasculogenic medium or osteoinductive components.\n\nOverall\, this dissertation presents an attractive strategy for generating vascularized bone-like tissue. By integrating the modular biomaterial platform with an EO-based induction process\, we successfully leveraged physiologic cues of hypertrophic MSC to achieve concomitant vasculogenic and osteogenic development.\n\nDate: Monday\, May 9\, 2022\nTime: 11:00 AM\nLocation: 1130 LBME and Zoom (https://umich.zoom.us/j/96133803682 Passcode: bones)\nChair: Dr. Jan Stegemann

SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Andrew McInnerney
DESCRIPTION:Linguistics PhD candidate Andrew McInnerney will defend his dissertation on Monday\, May 9\, at 11:30 am. The title of his dissertation is “The Argument/Adjunct Distinction and the Structure of Prepositional Phrases.” Doctoral committee members include Professor Acrisio Pires (Chair)\, Professor Ezra Keshet\, Dr. Lisa Levinson\, Professor Richard L. Lewis\, and Professor T. Daniel Seely\, Eastern Michigan University. All are invited to attend.\n\nABSTRACT\nThis dissertation examines the traditional evidence for the Argument/Adjunct Distinction (A/AD). I begin by drawing a distinction between the semantic sense of the A/AD and the syntactic sense of the A/AD. The semantic A/AD concerns lexical encoding of thematic information\; arguments are taken to be semantically encoded in the lexical representation of predicates\, while adjuncts are not. I argue instead that lexical encoding of thematic information is a property in its own right\; the standard evidence does motivate an understanding of the A/AD in these terms. The syntactic A/AD has to do with the external syntax of constituents. I consider nine canonical syntactic diagnostics for argumenthood (e.g. omissibility\, VP-anaphora\, islandhood\, etc.)\, using prepositional phrases in the verbal domain in English as a test case\, and I find that these diagnostics do not provide good evidence for the syntactic A/AD. Instead\, the properties identified by the canonical argumenthood diagnostics are independent of one another\; they should not be taken to as properties of a single larger distinction. \n	After carefully examining the evidence for the A/AD\, I consider the consequences of eliminating the distinction. I focus specifically on consequences for the syntax prepositional phrases\, including (i) the configuration of PPs in the verbal domain\, (ii) licensing of pronouns within PPs\, and (iii) pseudopassives (p-passives). The A/AD has been argued to play an important role in each of these domains\, and so if the distinction is to be eliminated\, it is important to explore how analyses in these domains are affected. On the structure of VP-internal PPs\, I explore the possibility that PPs could be attached as sisters to functional heads in the verbal domain\, potentially forming multiple n-ary-branching layers. On pronoun-licensing in PP\, I defend the hypothesis that PP is split into two layers\, and I argue that the lower of the two layers is a phase\; assuming that Condition B is sensitive to phase domains\, this enables an account of a range of relevant data. Finally\, on p-passives\, I consider the conditions under which p-passivization is blocked\, arguing that argumenthood is not a relevant factor.
