Online social networks model and operate primarily on explicit relationships between people. However, many high-value social activities are not mediated by relationships of this kind. Instead, people who may not know each other nonetheless co-ordinate their activities because they attend to similar cues in their cultural environment. This research work aims at exploring ways to […]

The aim of the current project is to assess the level of representation of visible minorities, indigenous peoples, and women in leadership roles in the public and non-profit sectors in London. The current project also aims to conduct in-depth interviews with key stakeholders in London to determine if and what some of the organizations in […]

Early loss of vision is accompanied by widespread cross-modal changes in the brain, in that ‘visual’ areas of the brain show responses to nonvisual stimuli. This raises the possibility of using the reorganization associated with vision loss to investigate how auditory events may be encoded and retrieved from memory. The proposed project will examine the […]

My project aims primarily to understand cross-cultural interactions by investigating the visual and material culture pertaining to wine in Ancient Parthia (Iran/Syria) and Gandhara (Pakistan/Afghanistan) from the 2nd century BCE to the 2nd century CE. Art historical and archaeological scholarship on the topic has tended to focus on substantiating Classical influence on Eastern art in […]

In this project, a model interpreted by a differential equation system is developed to study two-innovation diffusion. We will examine stability, developing tendency, distribution, bifurcation and other properties of the system depending on different model parameters. We will also investigate the corresponding discrete forms of the system and compare the obtained results. Both approaches of […]

This project is developed to leverage 3D printing to fabricate personnel protective equipment and other products that can help us navigate the COVID 19 pandemic. 3D printing can be used to quickly fabricate a design idea, but it is a slow process, and there is some inherent porosity, so using this process to make masks […]

The SARS-CoV-2 virus is currently causing a pandemic that is overburdening the healthcare system and causing unprecedented economic disruptions on a global scale. A method called serological testing uses viral proteins to determine if the someone has been infected and has now become immune to the virus; however, it is currently very expensive to produce. […]

This investigation aims to discuss possible relationships between internal dynamics of different cocaine markets in Recife and uses of this information in drug policies implemented in the city. Understanding the configurational mechanisms that operate in different cocaine markets, their functionalities, dysfunctionalities and particularities is needed. Then, I must analyse how the existing policies considers the […]

The objective of this project is to compare and analyse the forms of non-state governance of violence in two poor communities in the southern region of Recife, Northeast Brazil. Although they are close to each other and have similar structural contexts, each of these communities has specific governance arrangements with disparate day-to-day consequences. The working […]
