    its limitations. 2:00pm Kevin Canady-Pete We will be exploring the world of Iterated functions and the fractal Images that they can create. Through studying iterated functions and noting the specific patterns that take place, we are able to better understand these fantastic images. 2:30 – 3:00pm Break 3:00pm Connor Lemma We will investigate Markov Chains and their properties. After developing an understanding of Markov Chains, we will apply their theoretical and practical modeling uses to social

POINTS OF INTEREST: The central and critical role of the preceptor is also recognized in research and in theoretical models of nurse practitioner education, such as the Triad Model (Paton, 2014; Zawaduk et al., 2014) and the Academic-Practice Partnership Model (Amirhesani et al., 2019). PLU SON provides and makes the arrangements with the preceptor for the NP student’s clinical experience of direct patient care in the real-world clinical setting. To become a preceptor, contact the Clinical

  • Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy | Department of Philosophy | leland@plu.edu | 253-535-7396 | As a teacher of philosophy, I very much enjoy both 1) introducing new students to this exciting discipline and 2) teaching broadly across its many different subfields.

    interests beyond these areas.   As a scholar, I specialize in 18th and 19th century German philosophy, with a particular focus on the writings of Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) and, more specifically, his “theoretical” philosophy (i.e. his metaphysics, epistemology, and philosophy of mind). Most of my publications are in this area, and I continue to conduct research in it.

Nanocrystals are commonly used as dyes in LSCs because of their good Stokes shifts and high Luminescent Quantum Yields, LQY making nanocrystals good candidates for dyes in LSCs. Growth of elongated shells on the nanocrystals will help align them within the LSCs and work to reduce trap cone emission. We first synthesized CdSe nanocrystals cores with
