How much of my thesis have I written? And what the dickens is this Potential Vorticity thing??
Before people ask - NO, I won't be giving out my background chapter just yet! When it's finished and finalised for printing maybe then :P With that out the way I hope you enjoyed hearing about the experience of writing my PhD thesis! Please do ask if you have any questions about it :)
As I said in the video, I do apologise if the PV section was boring or confusing. It's difficult to take such an abstract concept in the field and make it understandable to people without a background in atmospheric physics but I gave it my best shot! Please do ask away in the comments if you'd like to learn more, and check out the references below.

Nadia Jaber is a graduate student at Stony Brook University, pursuing a PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology. Her thesis work focuses on how mammalian cells discard the chemical signals used to communicate with one another. During her graduate training, she realized she wanted something different than the traditional academic career path that PhDs are geared for. Exploring her interests, she found a passion in science and health communications and has since begun the Advanced Certificate in Health Communications offered by the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science. Her goal is to use her science background to disseminate important health and science information in order to empower the general public to make educated decisions.
Outside of science and communications, Nadia likes to try new recipes, paint quotes for her Etsy shop, take kickboxing classes and sail around Northport.

Residential Energy Feedback: Research, Technology, and Potential for the Informed Home
Research Summary: Scientists and elected officials agree that climate change is an issue that can no longer be ignored and residential energy use is a prime target for reducing emissions, accounting for over 20% of annual emissions. One promising strategy for promoting conservation is the provision of feedback about energy use. Feedback -- the process of giving people information about their behavior to reinforce and/or change behavior--is receiving increasing attention due to changes in technology and infrastructure that allow information to be collected, processed, and sent back to consumers quickly and cheaply. Many programs and products have emerged in recent years, demonstrating political and technical potential for wide-scale provision of energy feedback. However, past work has been critiqued for its lack of theoretical rigor; many have called for more attention to the conditions under which theories are successful in explaining conservation. This research presents an interdisciplinary, mixed methods approach to understanding the role of feedback in residential energy conservation through five distinct, yet interrelated approaches: (1) literature review and integration into a new Eco-Feedback Intervention Theory (eFIT) (2) meta-analysis of past research on residential energy feedback, (3) taxonomy of energy feedback technology, (3) mixed-methods analysis of naturalistic energy feedback users, and (4) introduction and psychometric testing of a Usability Perception Scale (UPscale). As a whole, it seeks to extend what is known about energy feedback and to make suggestions for future research and practice. While there much research addressing whether feedback works, there has been little research into the more nuanced questions of how and for whom it works best. The present research aims to address this need.
Biography: Beth founded and directs the Transformational Media Lab in the Center for Unconventional Security Affairs (CUSA), where she studies the psychology of leveraging new media and technology for social impact. Current projects investigate public acceptance of technology, documentary film, and digital activism. Beth has over a dozen publications in venues ranging from Peace Studies to Persuasive Technology and lectures regularly on Transformational Media and the Psychology of Sustainability. She is active in the American Psychological Association's Division 34 (Environmental Psychology), currently serving as Treasurer and Program Chair for the 2014 Convention. Beth holds a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Psychology and Spanish from the University of Redlands and a Masters in Public Administration (MPA) from California State University, Long Beach. Prior to beginning her doctoral studies, she spent a decade working in K-12 education, holding positions as a teacher, counselor, curriculum consultant, and school administrator. After graduation, Beth will be staying at CUSA and working on the NSF-funded Flood RISE project, investigating the role of parcel-level flood modeling coupled with transformative communication strategies to improve flood resilience. The project aims to articulate a strategy for effectively translating climate science into actionable information to catalyze behavioral change.

Thesis
A thesis or dissertation is a document submitted in support of candidature for an academic degree or professional qualification presenting the author's research and findings. In some contexts, the word "thesis" or a cognate is used for part of a bachelor's or master's course, while "dissertation" is normally applied to a doctorate, while in other contexts, the reverse is true. The term graduate thesis is sometimes used to refer to both master's theses and doctoral dissertations. Dissertations and theses may be considered to be grey literature.
The required complexity or quality of research of a thesis or dissertation can vary by country, university, or program, and the required minimum study period may thus vary significantly in duration.
The word dissertation can at times be used to describe a treatise without relation to obtaining an academic degree. The term thesis is also used to refer to the general claim of an essay or similar work.
Etymology
The term "thesis" comes from the Greek θέσις, meaning "something put forth", and refers to an intellectual proposition. "Dissertation" comes from the Latin dissertātiō, meaning "path".

Sperm competition between brothers and female choice
Winner of Dance your PhD 2013 by Science. Females of the red jungle fowl (forest chicken) mate with multiple males, which can create competition between sperm of different males in order to fertilize the egg. In my PhD thesis, I explored the effect of brotherhood on sperm competition and female choice. Interestingly, the brother of the first male that the female has mated with invests more sperm in the female than the non-brother of the first male mate. However, the female ejects a higher proportion of sperm from the brother of the first mate and favours the sperm of the non-brother, facilitating a higher fertility by the non-brother’s sperm. In addition to the main story, we showcase some of the interesting biology of sperm. First, sperm quality differs and while some move faster and a...

Lightbender v2 - audiovisual instrument
Lightbender v2 is an audiovisual instrument developed for four players each controlling the expression of a color and a tone. It was exhibited at the contemporary music festival Sound Around (2007) in the Plex music theatre in Copenhagen. The instrument incorporates a half sphere shaped water tank that serves as a semi-3D video screen. A particle system is projected into the tank leaving illuminated traces in the water. The sound is based on an additive fm synth with filtered white noise. Synth parameters are mapped directly to the behaviour of the particle system. The sound is emitted from four speakers in a surround set-up where the panning of the sound fits the position of each player and the movement of the particles. The physical interface consists of four modified game pad controlle...

Before people ask - NO, I won't be giving out my background chapter just yet! When it's finished and finalised for printing maybe then :P With that out the way I hope you enjoyed hearing about the experience of writing my PhD thesis! Please do ask if you have any questions about it :)
As I said in the video, I do apologise if the PV section was boring or confusing. It's difficult to take such an abstract concept in the field and make it understandable to people without a background in atmospheric physics but I gave it my best shot!

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Traditionally all PhDs went on to become academic professors. Times have changed. This speaker offers an idea to help prepare graduate students for the real world.
Nadia Jaber is a graduate student at Stony Brook University, pursuing a PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology. Her thesis work focuses on how mammalian cells discard the chemical signals used to communicate with one another. During her graduate training, she realized she wanted something different than the traditional academic career path that PhDs are geared for. Exploring her interests, she found a passion in science and health communications and has since begun the Advanced Certificate in Health Communications offered by the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science. Her goal is to use her science background to disseminate important health and science information in order to empower the general public to make educated decisions.
Outside of science and communications, Nadia likes to try new recipes, paint quotes for her Etsy shop, take kickboxing classes and sail around Northport.

Residential Energy Feedback: Research, Technology, and Potential for the Informed Home
Research Summary: Scientists and elected officials agree that climate change is an issue that can no longer be ignored and residential energy use is a prime target for reducing emissions, accounting for over 20% of annual emissions. One promising strategy for promoting conservation is the provision of feedback about energy use. Feedback -- the process of giving people information about their behavior to reinforce and/or change behavior--is receiving increasing attention due to changes in technology and infrastructure that allow information to be collected, processed, and sent back to consumers quickly and cheaply. Many programs and products have emerged in recent years, demonstrating political and technical potential for wide-scale provision of energy feedback. However, past work has been critiqued for its lack of theoretical rigor; many have called for more attention to the conditions under which theories are successful in explaining conservation. This research presents an interdisciplinary, mixed methods approach to understanding the role of feedback in residential energy conservation through five distinct, yet interrelated approaches: (1) literature review and integration into a new Eco-Feedback Intervention Theory (eFIT) (2) meta-analysis of past research on residential energy feedback, (3) taxonomy of energy feedback technology, (3) mixed-methods analysis of naturalistic energy feedback users, and (4) introduction and psychometric testing of a Usability Perception Scale (UPscale). As a whole, it seeks to extend what is known about energy feedback and to make suggestions for future research and practice. While there much research addressing whether feedback works, there has been little research into the more nuanced questions of how and for whom it works best. The present research aims to address this need.

Winner of Dance your PhD 2013 by Science.
Females of the red jungle fowl (forest chicken) mate with multiple males, which can create competition between sperm of different males in order to fertilize the egg. In my PhD thesis, I explored the effect of brotherhood on sperm competition and female choice. Interestingly, the brother of the first male that the female has mated with invests more sperm in the female than the non-brother of the first male mate. However, the female ejects a higher proportion of sperm from the brother of the first mate and favours the sperm of the non-brother, facilitating a higher fertility by the non-brother’s sperm.
In addition to the main story, we showcase some of the interesting biology of sperm. First, sperm quality differs and while some move faster and are more forward-moving, others move in circles. Second, sperm of multiple males can interact with one another, sometimes even antagonistically.
Inspired by various sports, the dance movements in this video reflect the competitive nature in the sperm world. The two original music pieces in this video are (1) ‘Animal Love’, which is about the variety of sexual behavior in different species and (2) ‘Scenester’, a piece telling the story about a girl who keeps changing her ways and males trying to keep up with her.

Winner of Dance your PhD 2013 by Science.
Females of the red jungle fowl (forest chicken) mate with multiple males, which can create competition between sperm of different males in order to fertilize the egg. In my PhD thesis, I explored the effect of brotherhood on sperm competition and female choice. Interestingly, the brother of the first male that the female has mated with invests more sperm in the female than the non-brother of the first male mate. However, the female ejects a higher proportion of sperm from the brother of the first mate and favours the sperm of the non-brother, facilitating a higher fertility by the non-brother’s sperm.
In addition to the main story, we showcase some of the interesting biology of sperm. First, sperm quality differs and while some move faster and are more forward-moving, others move in circles. Second, sperm of multiple males can interact with one another, sometimes even antagonistically.

Lightbender v2 is an audiovisual instrument developed for four players each controlling the expression of a color and a tone. It was exhibited at the contemporary music festival Sound Around (2007) in the Plex music theatre in Copenhagen.
The instrument incorporates a half sphere shaped water tank that serves as a semi-3D video screen. A particle system is projected into the tank leaving illuminated traces in the water. The sound is based on an additive fm synth with filtered white noise. Synth parameters are mapped directly to the behaviour of the particle system. The sound is emitted from four speakers in a surround set-up where the panning of the sound fits the position of each player and the movement of the particles. The physical interface consists of four modified game pad controllers.
The first version of the instrument which was built for the exhibition Social Aktion (2007) at The Museum of Contempoary Art in Roskilde had only visual output. The initial idea was to engage people socially in a musical experience by enabling the control of visual expressions while listening to a selection of the museums extensive sound art archive.
Building color organs is no novel idea. The first in this family of instruments is the Clavecin Oculaire completed by Louis-Bertrand Castel in 1734, but the idea of audiovisual coherence dates even further back (Peacock 1988). Since then many have followed, most notably (I think) Thomas Wilfred's Clavilux from 1919.
I'd like to thank Golan Levin for compiling a brief a historic overview in his PhD thesis from 2000. Thanks also goes to Morten Søndergaard, for the invitation. Museet for Samtidskunst, for providing materials. Daniel Høier Øhrgaard, Morten Carlsen and Thomas Sørensen for general help. Marie Louise Andersson, for game-pad modification help. Michael Edinger, for help with the electronics. Enrico, for lots of practical help at the museeum. Dennis Paul, for teaching me a bunch of Java tricks. Christian Riekoff, for providing the procontroll library.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Traditionally all PhDs went on to become academic professors. Times have changed. This speaker offers an idea to help prepare graduate students for the real world.
Nadia Jaber is a graduate student at Stony Brook University, pursuing a PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology. Her thesis work focuses on how mammalian cells discard the chemical signals used to communicate with one another. During her graduate training, she realized she wanted something different than the traditional academic career path that PhDs are geared for. Exploring her interests, she found a passion in science and health communications and has since begun the Advanced Certificate in Health Communications offered by the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science. Her goal is to use her science background to disseminate important health and science information in order to empower the general public to make educated decisions.
Outside of science and communications, Nadia likes to try new recipes, paint quotes for her Etsy shop, take kickboxing classes and sail around Northport.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Traditionally all PhDs went on to become academic professors. Times have changed. This speaker offers an idea to help prepare graduate students for the real world.
Nadia Jaber is a graduate student at Stony Brook University, pursuing a PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology. Her thesis work focuses on how mammalian cells discard the chemical signals used to communicate with one another. During her graduate training, she realized she wanted something different than the traditional academic career path that PhDs are geared for. Exploring her interests, she found a passion in science and health communications and has since begun the Advanced Certificate in Health Communications offered by the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science. Her goal is to use her science background to disseminate important health and science information in order to empower the general public to make educated decisions.
Outside of science and communications, Nadia likes to try new recipes, paint quotes for her Etsy shop, take kickboxing classes and sail around Northport.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Residential Energy Feedback: Research, Technology, and Potential for the Informed Home
Research Summary: Scientists and elected officials agree that climate change is an issue that can no longer be ignored and residential energy use is a prime target for reducing emissions, accounting for over 20% of annual emissions. One promising strategy for promoting conservation is the provision of feedback about energy use. Feedback -- the process of giving people information about their behavior to reinforce and/or change behavior--is receiving increasing attention due to changes in technology and infrastructure that allow information to be collected, processed, and sent back to consumers quickly and cheaply. Many programs and products have emerged in recent years, demonstrating political and technical potential for wide-scale provision of energy feedback. However, past work has been critiqued for its lack of theoretical rigor; many have called for more attention to the conditions under which theories are successful in explaining conservation. This research presents an interdisciplinary, mixed methods approach to understanding the role of feedback in residential energy conservation through five distinct, yet interrelated approaches: (1) literature review and integration into a new Eco-Feedback Intervention Theory (eFIT) (2) meta-analysis of past research on residential energy feedback, (3) taxonomy of energy feedback technology, (3) mixed-methods analysis of naturalistic energy feedback users, and (4) introduction and psychometric testing of a Usability Perception Scale (UPscale). As a whole, it seeks to extend what is known about energy feedback and to make suggestions for future research and practice. While there much research addressing whether feedback works, there has been little research into the more nuanced questions of how and for whom it works best. The present research aims to address this need.

Winner of Dance your PhD 2013 by Science.
Females of the red jungle fowl (forest chicken) mate with multiple males, which can create competition between sperm of different males in order to fertilize the egg. In my PhD thesis, I explored the effect of brotherhood on sperm competition and female choice. Interestingly, the brother of the first male that the female has mated with invests more sperm in the female than the non-brother of the first male mate. However, the female ejects a higher proportion of sperm from the brother of the first mate and favours the sperm of the non-brother, facilitating a higher fertility by the non-brother’s sperm.
In addition to the main story, we showcase some of the interesting biology of sperm. First, sperm quality differs and while some move faster and are more forward-moving, others move in circles. Second, sperm of multiple males can interact with one another, sometimes even antagonistically.
Inspired by various sports, the dance movements in this video reflect the competitive nature in the sperm world. The two original music pieces in this video are (1) ‘Animal Love’, which is about the variety of sexual behavior in different species and (2) ‘Scenester’, a piece telling the story about a girl who keeps changing her ways and males trying to keep up with her.

Lightbender v2 is an audiovisual instrument developed for four players each controlling the expression of a color and a tone. It was exhibited at the contemporary music festival Sound Around (2007) in the Plex music theatre in Copenhagen.
The instrument incorporates a half sphere shaped water tank that serves as a semi-3D video screen. A particle system is projected into the tank leaving illuminated traces in the water. The sound is based on an additive fm synth with filtered white noise. Synth parameters are mapped directly to the behaviour of the particle system. The sound is emitted from four speakers in a surround set-up where the panning of the sound fits the position of each player and the movement of the particles. The physical interface consists of four modified game pad controllers.
The first version of the instrument which was built for the exhibition Social Aktion (2007) at The Museum of Contempoary Art in Roskilde had only visual output. The initial idea was to engage people socially in a musical experience by enabling the control of visual expressions while listening to a selection of the museums extensive sound art archive.
Building color organs is no novel idea. The first in this family of instruments is the Clavecin Oculaire completed by Louis-Bertrand Castel in 1734, but the idea of audiovisual coherence dates even further back (Peacock 1988). Since then many have followed, most notably (I think) Thomas Wilfred's Clavilux from 1919.
I'd like to thank Golan Levin for compiling a brief a historic overview in his PhD thesis from 2000. Thanks also goes to Morten Søndergaard, for the invitation. Museet for Samtidskunst, for providing materials. Daniel Høier Øhrgaard, Morten Carlsen and Thomas Sørensen for general help. Marie Louise Andersson, for game-pad modification help. Michael Edinger, for help with the electronics. Enrico, for lots of practical help at the museeum. Dennis Paul, for teaching me a bunch of Java tricks.
