Older adults are a growing population in the United States and many elders suffer from physical, sexual, mental, isolation and financial abuse without any obvious signs. Through the research and evaluation of a growing number of elder abuse cases, Humboldt County’s Civil Grand Jury issued a report, Silver Tsunami Warning, explaining the concerns of elder abuse. Through this community project, my community partner, Adult Protective Services and I will bring mindfulness of elder abuse through promoting World Elder Abuse Awareness Month, advocate prevention of elder abuse, and educate how to report elder abuse through a visual campaign of banners advertised throughout Humboldt County.

Physical Education aims to educate students in Physical Education. The understanding of physical competence will enable knowledge of safety and movement. Physical Education (PE) aims to develop students' understanding of PE as an active, healthy lifestyle. This will allow students to learn and cooperate with the instructor to develop their motor skills, gain knowledge, and understand their behavior and physical activity in class—the main reason this is so serious for teachers is that it leads to burnout in PE. There is a lack of resources within the field of PE, and the school cannot provide enough money within the field.

Falls in older adults are a leading cause of injury, hospitalization, and reduced independence, with significant healthcare costs and impacts on quality of life. Traditional fall risk assessments (e.g., clinical tests) are time-consuming, subjective, and may lack predictive accuracy. Advances in wearable sensors, AI, and machine learning offer real-time, objective, and scalable solutions for fall risk prediction and prevention. The purpose of this review is to synthesize current evidence on Artificial Intelligence-driven fall risk assessment tools and highlight gaps for future research.

As part of a Masters thesis, this study explored how individuals are defining, interpreting, and practicing the Paleo diet in the United States and any associated health outcomes. Qualitative and quantitative research methods were used. Ethnographic methods included interviews and media analysis. A national survey was also conducted. This study found that specific practices of this diet varied by individual. Most common practices included frequent vegetable consumption, and avoidance of grains and processed foods. Increased energy and muscle tone, and decreased weight and frequency of illness were the most frequently reported health outcomes from these practices.

Environmental metal oxides have multiple chemical interactions with natural and anthropogenic organics in the atmosphere. Volatile organic compounds (VOC) and pollutants such as; pesticides, fertilizers, and nitrates are introduced to the atmosphere through similar means as well as incomplete combustion from vehicles and industrial processes. Metal oxides like titanium (IV) oxide, TiO2, have photocatalytic effects that can further oxidize VOC and other adsorbed species. Acetone is a frequently measured VOC in the atmosphere. In our research we study how acetone and other organic species adsorb onto TiO2 and react catalytically in the presence of atmospheric oxidants such as ozone.

My concept for the mask design is rooted in sustainability, using found materials to decorate the masks. The masks are made out of items that are found in nature - items that animals would use if they were able to make masks for themselves. Ranging from feathers, to redwood tree leaves and bark, to pine cones, and to dirt. Each material provides texture that is accurate and unique to that of the animal, or to the animal’s personality.

The Northcoast Environmental Center is one of the oldest non-profit organizations in Northern California that has been protecting and conserving marine ecosystems since 1971. As a special project intern, this project focuses on the contributions of the Northcoast Environmental Center and how they’re volunteer events and ideas towards removing plastic waste have impacted beaches worldwide . The Coastal Cleanup Day was first established in 1979 through the Beach Beautification project, which is now practiced internationally every year.

The Archaeology Research Laboratory (ARL) and Biological Anthropology Research Center (BARC) at Humboldt State University maintain a teaching collection of faunal skeletal materials. This project will add examples of known taphonomic markers relevant to the Humboldt County area to the faunal collection. Faunal elements were deposited in nine unique burial conditions incorporating local earth materials and native plants. Elements will be recovered and accessioned in December 2019. This study provided valuable experience for undergraduate student participants and will add unique reference material to the ARL/ BARC collection.

This poster will discuss sexual assault that happens in all levels of athletics and how we can prevent this from happening. By taking time to educate young athletes about what sexual assault is, consent and what it looks like, so they will know how to prevent and respond to sexual assault. Hopefully by educating young athletes, they will know and change the future to make athletics more safe for everybody.
