Data Set for North American Colleges and Universities with Italian and Digital Humanities Programs

Date: 2016-09-13

Creator: Crystal Hall

Access: Open access

This data set represents a first attempt to identify the North American colleges and universities that offer Italian courses at any level and also have support for digital humanities (DH) pedagogy or scholarship at any level. The list of schools with Italian programs was developed using the American Association of Teachers of Italian (AATI) list of undergraduate and graduate programs and College Source as of July 2016. The list was supplemented by checking if institutions listed with CenterNet (for Digital Humanities Centers) also have Italian programs. Overall, 10% of the Italian programs identified were not included in the AATI list, from the level of service courses through Masters degree. A search of each institution’s website was then performed to determine the level of DH resources available. Based on this collected data, 70% of North American colleges and universities that offer Italian also offer support for digital humanities courses or research through a center/lab, courses, major or minor programs, certificates, or graduate programs. A supplemental code sheet is available. Further analysis is provided in the author’s working paper “Digital Humanities & Italian Studies: Intersections and Oppositions” that is part of the State of the Discipline symposium organized by Wellesley College, October 1, 2016. (The data has been updated since the circulation of that paper, so numbers may not match.) The topic will be addressed in more detail based on the related survey and presentation at MLA 2017.

Implementing the Optimal Provision of Ecosystem Services

Date: 2013-08-01

Creator: Stephen Polasky, David Lewis, Andrew Plantinga, Erik Nelson

Access: Open access

Many ecosystem services are public goods whose provision depends on the spatial pattern of land use. The pattern of land use is often determined by the decisions of multiple private landowners. Increasing the provision of ecosystem services, while beneficial for society as a whole, may be costly to private landowners. A regulator interested in providing incentives to landowners for increased provision of ecosystem services often lacks complete information on landowners’ costs. The combination of spatially-dependent benefits and asymmetric cost information means that the optimal provision of ecosystem services cannot be achieved using standard regulatory or payment for ecosystem services (PES) approaches. Here we show that an auction that pays a landowner for the increased value of ecosystem services generated by the landowner’s actions provides incentives for landowners to truthfully reveal cost information, and allows the regulator to implement the optimal provision of ecosystem services, even in the case with spatially-dependent benefits and asymmetric information.


Dismantling the bacterial glycocalyx: Chemical tools to probe, perturb, and image bacterial glycans

Date: 2021-07-15

Creator: Phuong Luong, Danielle H. Dube

Access: Open access

The bacterial glycocalyx is a quintessential drug target comprised of structurally distinct glycans. Bacterial glycans bear unusual monosaccharide building blocks whose proper construction is critical for bacterial fitness, survival, and colonization in the human host. Despite their appeal as therapeutic targets, bacterial glycans are difficult to study due to the presence of rare bacterial monosaccharides that are linked and modified in atypical manners. Their structural complexity ultimately hampers their analytical characterization. This review highlights recent advances in bacterial chemical glycobiology and focuses on the development of chemical tools to probe, perturb, and image bacterial glycans and their biosynthesis. Current technologies have enabled the study of bacterial glycosylation machinery even in the absence of detailed structural information.
