Despite the great level of diversity that exists globally, most genetic disease studies are based on populations of mainly European ancestry. 78% of genome-wide association studies come from populations of European descent when in reality, these groups only make up 16% of the global population. This has negatively impacted members of minority (or non-European) groups because studies taken from mainly European populations can cause inaccurate or incomplete translation of research into public health policies, which r

PMTA Regulations serve as gateways. They authorize a tobacco product to be on the market, considering factors like advertising and marketing as a whole. In the wake of new PMTA Regulations, tobacco companies likely will change the way they advertise in order to be authorized. The goal of this study is to highlight those changes by comparing product advertising before and after this year’s PMTA Regulations. The study will highlight some themes of the study and hopefully consider why such changes happened.

California’s power grid is reaching the end of its life. In 2019 alone, there were 25,281 blackout events in California, a 23% increase from the 20,598 blackouts in 2018 (BloomEnergy, 2019). Based upon prior research, a household-level photovoltaic system that can power a single residential unit as needed and supply the grid for local redistribution when needed is the most economical and efficient solution for the increasing number of blackouts, brownouts, and Public Safety Power Shutoffs. This study aims to find t

With the surge of social media usage in the past decade, misinformation has become increasingly prevalent, especially among the youth. In 2017, 31% of kids aged 10 to 18 have reshared at least one false news story on the misconception of its reliability. The spread of fake news is not a new problem nor an easy problem to solve; current fixes, including both AI and human filtering sources, have proven to be temporary and insufficient. In order to introduce a new perspective to current research, we plan to investigat
