Machine learning approaches for toxicology and risk assessment
Published 2024Computational toxicology is a new approach methodology (NAM) for chemical toxicity testing and risk assessment in light of the replacement, reduction, and refinement (3Rs) of animal use. This thesis focuses on machine ...USyd AccessThesis -
Optimization of integrated silicon photonics devices with fabrication feasibility
Published 2024Silicon photonics is a rising technique in many aspects due to its complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor compatibility, low-cost fabrication, large-volume manufacturing, and high-density packing. Designing high-performance ...USyd AccessThesis -
Presynaptic-like mechanisms and the control of insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells
Published 2024The regulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells is central to the maintenance of blood glucose homeostasis. While the fundamental steps linking glucose uptake to the exocytosis of insulin-containing granules ...USyd AccessThesis -
Beneath the cooling cap: An Exploration of women's and nurses' experiences of scalp cooling in the context of breast cancer
Published 2024Chemotherapy-induced alopecia is reported to be one of the more distressing side effects of systemic cancer treatment. In Australia, a number of specialist cancer centres have introduced scalp-cooling technology to prevent ...USyd AccessThesis -
Microwave Photonics Enhanced Microresonator Sensors
Published 2024Optical microresonators (OMRs), which can be used as compact and highly sensitive optical sensors, are considered to be an ideal platform for optical sensing. However, the resolution of conventional optical interrogation ...USyd AccessThesis
