Shapeshifting as Infrastructural Storytelling: Comics about the Taxibot’s Conflicting Narratives

Giada Peterle and Tina Harris Academy of Mobility Humanities 2024 Mobility Humanities Vol.3 No.1

What are the stories we tell about infrastructures and what stories do infrastructures tell (about) us? We propose a paper in a hybrid verbo-visual format, including comic-pages created by Giada Peterle and based on Tina Harris’s keynote at the 2022 GMHC conference, autoethnographic notes, and visuals collected during fieldwork. Through experimenting with graphic storytelling, we highlight examples of infrastructural revelation and concealment, drawing on the figure of the shapeshifter as both a metaphor and a method for mobilising infrastructural imagination. What unites shapeshifters in many of the stories and myths we read is how they are taken up in different ways; how they simultaneously present both the potential to improve human lives as well as produce fear due to their unpredictability. By focusing specifically on the narrative of one shapeshifting infrastructure—the Taxibot, a vehicle designed to cut down on carbon emissions and improve efficiency at airports—we use comics as a research practice for exploring this metaphor and developing a broader understanding of how mobile lives and imaginaries shape infrastructure (and vice versa). We argue that paying closer attention to storytelling can generate new understandings of the uneven nexus between infrastructures and mobile lives, weaving in our understanding of infrastructural im/mobilities.

Exchange: Explaining the Passage of Universal Healthcare in Thailand

Joseph Harris,Joel Sawat Selway 동아시아연구원 2020 Journal of East Asian Studies Vol.20 No.1

What explains the passage of Thailand's landmark universal healthcare (UHC) policy? In separate contributions, Selway and Harris emphasized the role of electoral rules and political parties, on one hand, and “professional movements” of developmentally minded state bureaucrats on the other. Which is correct? In this article, Selway and Harris respond to each other's work. While Selway agrees that the actions of the professional movement constitute an underappreciated necessary condition for universal healthcare in Thailand, he argues that Harris overstates the role of the movement in implementation. Harris defends his position and maintains that an institution-focused account is insufficient, arguing that the actions of Thailand's Rural Doctors’ Movement not only explain universal healthcare but also gave rise to the very electoral rule changes that Selway argues were so critical to facilitating universal coverage. Selway responds to these criticisms, and the two researchers jointly consider implications for causation, qualitative research, and policymaking theory.

Cellular Recording Using CRISPR Technologies

Harris H. WANG 한국생물공학회 2021 한국생물공학회 학술대회 Vol.2021 No.10

Robust recording of environmental and biological information over time has been a key challenge limiting the development of useful cell-based sentinels that can monitor environments and cellular states in open settings. In this talk, I describe a new framework to store environmental and biological temporal information directly into the genomes of a bacterial population. Using this framework, we recently developed a “biological tape recorder” in which biological signals trigger intracellular DNA production that is then recorded by the CRISPR-Cas adaptation system. This approach enables stable recording of temporal and lineage information over multiple days, which can be accurately reconstructed by sequencing CRISPR arrays. Using CRISPR-based cellular recording in complex microbial communities, we track and dissect horizontal gene transfer events in real time across the human gut microbiome and in vivo colonization of bacteria. Robust temporal recording of environmental and biological signals using engineered cells enables new applications for chronicling cellular events on a large scale, at a higher resolution, and in otherwise inaccessible settings.

이전의 스트레스 및 대처 문헌은 효과적인 스트레스 대처 전략이 개인의 복지에 대한 스트레스의 부정적인 영향을 감소시킬 뿐만 아니라 대처가 조직에도 도움이 될 수 있다고 제안한다. 본 연구에서는 노력-보상 불균형이 직원의 잡 크래프팅에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보고 이 관계에서 직원의 지각이 고용가능성과 조직몰입이 조절역할을 하는지 알아보고자 하였다. 또한, 노력-보상 불균형과 반생산적 과업행동 간 관계를 잡 크래프팅이 매개하는지 알아보고였다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 한국에 종사하는 203명의 직원들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며 회귀분석법으로 자료를 분석하였는데, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 노력-보상 불균형이 높을수록 잡 크래프팅이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 노력-보상 불균형과 구조적 직무자원을 증가시키는 행동, 사회적 직무자원을 증가시키는 행동, 그리고 도전적인 직무요구를 증가시키는 행동에 정 (+)의 관계가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그런데, 노력-보상 불균형과 방해되는 직무요구를 감소시키는 행동에 관계가 없는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 과도위임과 사회적 직무자원을 증가시키는 행동, 도전적인 직무요구를 증가시키는 행동에 정 (+)의 관계가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 둘째, 노력-보상 불균형과 잡 크래프팅 간의 정적 관계는 지각이 고용가능성이 낮을 때보다 높을 때 더 강하게 나타났다. 셋째, 노력-보상 불균형과 잡 크래프팅 간의 정적 관계는 조직몰입이 낮을 때보다 높을 때 더 강하게 나타났다. 넷째, 잡 크래프팅은 노력-보상 불균형과 반생산적 과업행동 간의 관계에서 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 추가적으로 해당 연구를 통해 얻어진 결과들을 토대로 연구의 의의 및 한계 점, 향후 연구를 위한 제언 등을 통합적으로 논의하였다. Previous stress and coping literatures suggests that effective stress coping strategy, will not only decrease the negative impact of stress on individuals well-being but coping can be beneficial for the organization as well. This study examines the role of job crafting as a form of stress coping strategy when employees perceive an effort-reward imbalance in the organization. In addition, the moderating roles of perceived external employability and organization commitment on the effort reward imbalance/job crafting relationship were examined. Finally, this research also examined job crafting as a mediator between perceive effort-reward imbalance and counterproductive work behavior. Analysis of 203 working individuals from South Korea was conducted for this research. The results are as follows: firstly, perceived effort-reward imbalance has a positive effect on employee s job crafting behaviors. Namely, increasing structural job resources, increasing social job resources and increasing challenging demands. However, the relationship between perceived effort-reward imbalance and decreasing hindering job demands were negatively insignificant. Secondly, perceived external employability and organization commitment moderates the relationship between effort-reward imbalance and job crafting. The relationship between effort-reward imbalance and job crafting is stronger when employee s perceived external employability and organization commitment is high than low. Lastly, job crafting partially mediates the relationship between effort-reward imbalance and counterproductive work behavior. Theoretical and practical implications, limitation of the study and research direction was also suggested.

FIXED POINT THEOREMS FOR INFINITE DIMENSIONAL HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONS

Harris, Lwarence-A. Korean Mathematical Society 2004 대한수학회지 Vol.41 No.1

This talk discusses conditions on the numerical range of a holomorphic function defined on a bounded convex domain in a complex Banach space that imply that the function has a unique fixed point. In particular, extensions of the Earle-Hamilton Theorem are given for such domains. The theorems are applied to obtain a quantitative version of the inverse function theorem for holomorphic functions and a distortion form of Cartan's unique-ness theorem.

Artificial intelligence in inflammatory bowel disease: implications for clinical practice and future directions

( Harris A. Ahmad ),( James E. East ),( Remo Panaccione ),( Simon Travis ),( James B. Canavan ),( Keith Usiskin ),( Michael F. Byrne ) 대한장연구학회 2023 Intestinal Research Vol.21 No.3

Inflammatory bowel disease encompasses Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis and is characterized by uncontrolled, relapsing, and remitting course of inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Artificial intelligence represents a new era within the field of gastroenterology, and the amount of research surrounding artificial intelligence in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is on the rise. As clinical trial outcomes and treatment targets evolve in inflammatory bowel disease, artificial intelligence may prove as a valuable tool for providing accurate, consistent, and reproducible evaluations of endoscopic appearance and histologic activity, thereby optimizing the diagnosis process and identifying disease severity. Furthermore, as the applications of artificial intelligence for inflammatory bowel disease continue to expand, they may present an ideal opportunity for improving disease management by predicting treatment response to biologic therapies and for refining the standard of care by setting the basis for future treatment personalization and cost reduction. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the unmet needs in the management of inflammatory bowel disease in clinical practice and how artificial intelligence tools can address these gaps to transform patient care.
