  abstract  = {Motivation: Corruption is often cited as a central reason why development projects fail. The article tests this claim by assessing whether World Bank projects perform worse in implementation environments with a higher corruption level. The article focuses specifically on bribery between public officials and firms during the procurement of needed goods and services. Approach and Methods: I use data from the World Bank's Enterprise Surveys to avoid the often-criticized corruption perception indices and to allow for an assessment of effects at the subnational level. The analysis builds on an assessment of the performance ratings of 1,228 World Bank projects and covers 87 different countries. Finding: Overall, the article finds a small but statistically significant correlation between the corruption level and project performance. This result indicates that the corruption level of recipient countries should be considered during the design and implementation of projects. Policy Implications: Nonetheless, the relatively small correlation and the low pseudo R-squareds advise not overestimating the relevance of corruption for project performance. At least for the project level, the article finds no indication that corruption is a primary obstacle to aid effectiveness.},

  abstract  = {Aufgrund der Bedeutung von Experimenten im physikalischen Erkenntnisprozess, sind diese ein wesentlicher Bestandteil des Physikunterrichts. Um den Einsatz von Experimenten im Physikunterricht zu f{\"o}rdern, sind kompetenzorientiertes Experimentieren und die Reflexion des Einsatzes von Experimenten wichtige Ziele in Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildungsprogrammen. Ablaufmodelle f{\"u}r kompetenzorientiertes Experimentieren unterscheiden typischerweise Phasen der Fragen- und Hypothesenentwicklung, der Planung, der Erforschung und der Schlussfolgerungen. Es ist allerdings unklar, auf welche Weise angehende Physiklehrkr{\"a}fte Aspekte des kompetenzorientierten Experimentierens in ihrem Unterricht in schulpraktischen Ausbildungsphasen einsetzen, auf welche Weise sie solche Unterrichtsversuche mit Experimentierbezug reflektieren und wie strukturiert (im Sinne der Ablaufmodelle) sie dabei vorgehen. In der vorliegenden Studie wurde deshalb untersucht, auf welche Weise Praxissemesterstudierende Experimentierprozesse in ihren Unterrichtsversuchen reflektieren. Hierf{\"u}r wurde betrachtet, zu welchen Anteilen die Experimentierphasen in den Reflexionen adressiert werden. Um weiterhin herauszufinden, mit welcher Qualit{\"a}t die Experimentplanung reflektiert wird und inwiefern sich Vorstrukturierung f{\"u}r die Planungsphase zeigt, wurde diese differenzierter betrachtet. Auf Basis empirischer Vorarbeiten wurde vermutet, dass Fragenentwicklung, Hypothesenbildung und Experimentplanung seltener thematisiert werden als die anderen Teilkompetenzen und dass die Planungsphase haupts{\"a}chlich stark vorstrukturierte Elemente enth{\"a}lt, statt den Lernenden Freir{\"a}ume f{\"u}r selbstst{\"a}ndige Planungen zu lassen. Zur Untersuchung der Fragestellung wurden Kodiermanuale zur Erfassung experimentierbezogener Kompetenzen in schriftlichen Reflexionen entwickelt und validiert. Analysiert wurden 40 Reflexionstexte von 14 Studierenden des Physik-Lehramts im Praxissemester an der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam. Als Untersuchungsmethode wurde die qualitative Inhaltsanalyse genutzt. Die Texte wurden bez{\"u}glich der Umsetzung eines Reflexionsmodells und auf das Vorkommen der Teilkompetenzen des Experimentierzyklus untersucht. Die Ergebnisse best{\"a}tigten das geringe Vorkommen der Fragenentwicklung und Hypothesenbildung sowie die tendenziell geschlossenen Planungsinhalte. Zudem konnte festgestellt werden, dass die Planungsphase eher oberfl{\"a}chlich reflektiert und vor allem Arbeitsauftr{\"a}ge wiedergegeben wurden. Allgemein zeigten sich haupts{\"a}chlich beschreibende Tendenzen in den Reflexionen und eher wenige Alternativen und Konsequenzen. Aus den Ergebnissen werden Implikationen f{\"u}r die Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildung im Fach Physik abgeleitet. Um die Reflexionskompetenz der angehenden Lehrkr{\"a}fte zu f{\"o}rdern, sind Hilfestellungen w{\"a}hrend des Reflexionsprozesses und eine inhaltliche R{\"u}ckmeldung notwendig. Des Weiteren sollten die angehenden Lehrkr{\"a}fte f{\"u}r eine ausgewogenere F{\"o}rderung der Teilkompetenzen in ihrem Unterricht sensibilisiert werden.},

  abstract  = {Despite general concern that the massive deposits of methane stored under permafrost underground and undersea could be released into the atmosphere due to rising temperatures attributed to global climate change, little is known about the methanogenic microorganisms in permafrost sediments, their role in methane emissions, and their phylogeny. The aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge of uncultivated methanogenic microorganisms in submarine and terrestrial permafrost deposits, their community composition, the role they play with regard to methane emissions, and their phylogeny. It is assumed that methanogenic communities in warmer submarine permafrost may serve as a model to anticipate the response of methanogenic communities in colder terrestrial permafrost to rising temperatures. The compositions of methanogenic communities were examined in terrestrial and submarine permafrost sediment samples. The submarine permafrost studied in this research was 10°C warmer than the terrestrial permafrost. By polymerase chain reaction (PCR), DNA was extracted from each of the samples and analyzed by molecular microbiological methods such as PCR-DGGE, RT-PCR, and cloning. Furthermore, these samples were used for in vitro experiment and FISH. The submarine permafrost analysis of the isotope composition of CH4 suggested a relationship between methane content and in situ active methanogenesis. Furthermore, active methanogenesis was proven using 13C-isotope measurements of methane in submarine permafrost sediment with a high TOC value and a high methane concentration. In the molecular-microbiological studies uncultivated lines of Methanosarcina, Methanomicrobiales, Methanobacteriacea and the Groups 1.3 and Marine Benthic from Crenarchaeota were found in all submarine and terrestrial permafrost samples. Methanosarcina was the dominant group of the Archaea in all submarine and terrestrial permafrost samples. The archaeal community composition, in particular, the methanogenic community composition showed diversity with changes in temperatures. Furthermore, cell count of methanogens in submarine permafrost was 10 times higher than in terrestrial permafrost. In vitro experiments showed that methanogens adapt quickly and well to higher temperatures. If temperatures rise due to climate change, an increase in methanogenic activity can be expected as long as organic material is sufficiently available and qualitatively adequate.},

  abstract  = {Artificial intelligence (AI) offers the potential to support healthcare delivery, but poorly trained or validated algorithms bear risks of harm. Ethical guidelines stated transparency about model development and validation as a requirement for trustworthy AI. Abundant guidance exists to provide transparency through reporting, but poorly reported medical AI tools are common. To close this transparency gap, we developed and piloted a framework to quantify the transparency of medical AI tools with three use cases. Our framework comprises a survey to report on the intended use, training and validation data and processes, ethical considerations, and deployment recommendations. The transparency of each response was scored with either 0, 0.5, or 1 to reflect if the requested information was not, partially, or fully provided. Additionally, we assessed on an analogous three-point scale if the provided responses fulfilled the transparency requirement for a set of trustworthiness criteria from ethical guidelines. The degree of transparency and trustworthiness was calculated on a scale from 0\% to 100\%. Our assessment of three medical AI use cases pin-pointed reporting gaps and resulted in transparency scores of 67\% for two use cases and one with 59\%. We report anecdotal evidence that business constraints and limited information from external datasets were major obstacles to providing transparency for the three use cases. The observed transparency gaps also lowered the degree of trustworthiness, indicating compliance gaps with ethical guidelines. All three pilot use cases faced challenges to provide transparency about medical AI tools, but more studies are needed to investigate those in the wider medical AI sector. Applying this framework for an external assessment of transparency may be infeasible if business constraints prevent the disclosure of information. New strategies may be necessary to enable audits of medical AI tools while preserving business secrets.},

  abstract  = {In this work, the development of a new molecular building block, based on synthetic peptides derived from decorin, is presented. These peptides represent a promising basis for the design of polymer-based biomaterials that mimic the ECM on a molecular level and exploit specific biological recognition for technical applications. Multiple sequence alignments of the internal repeats of decorin that formed the inner and outer surface of the arch-shaped protein were used to develop consensus sequences. These sequences contained conserved sequence motifs that are likely to be related to structural and functional features of the protein. Peptides representative for the consensus sequences were synthesized by microwave-assisted solid phase peptide synthesis and purified by RP-HPLC, with purities higher than 95 mol\%. After confirming the desired masses by MALDI-TOF-MS, the primary structure of each peptide was investigated by 1H and 2D NMR, from which a full assignment of the chemical shifts was obtained. The characterization of the peptides conformation in solution was performed by CD spectroscopy, which demonstrated that using TFE, the peptides from the outer surface of decorin show a high propensity to fold into helical structures as observed in the original protein. To the contrary, the peptides from the inner surface did not show propensity to form stable secondary structure. The investigation of the binding capability of the peptides to Collagen I was performed by surface plasmon resonance analyses, from which all but one of the peptides representing the inner surface of decorin showed binding affinity to collagen with values of dissociation constant between 2•10-7 M and 2.3•10-4 M. On the other hand, the peptides representative for the outer surface of decorin did not show any significant interaction to collagen. This information was then used to develop experimental demonstration for the binding capabilities of the peptides from the inner surface of decorin to collagen even when used in more complicated situations close to possible appications. With this purpose, the peptide (LRELHLNNN) which showed the highest binding affinity to collagen (2•10-7 M) was functionalized with an N-terminal triple bond in order to obtain a peptide dimer via copper(I)-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction with 4,4'-diazidostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid. Rheological measurements showed that the presence of the peptide dimer was able to enhance the elastic modulus (G') of a collagen gel from ~ 600 Pa (collagen alone) to ~ 2700 Pa (collagen and peptide dimer). Moreover, it was shown that the mechanical properties of a collagen gel can be tailored by using different molar ratios of peptide dimer respect to collagen. The same peptide, functionalized with the triple bond, was used to obtain a peptide-dye conjugate by coupling it with N-(5'-azidopentanoyl)-5-aminofluorescein. An aqueous solution (5 vol\% methanol) of the peptide dye conjugate was injected into a collagen and a hyaluronic acid (HA) gel and images of fluorescence detection showed that the diffusion of the peptide was slower in the collagen gel compared to the HA gel. The third experimental demonstration was gained using the peptide (LSELRLHNN) which showed the lower binding affinity (2.3•10-4 M) to collagen. This peptide was grafted to hyaluronic acid via EDC-chemistry, with a degree of functionalization of 7 ± 2 mol\% as calculated by 1H-NMR. The grafting was further confirmed by FTIR and TGA measurements, which showed that the onset of decomposition for the HA-g-peptide decreased by 10 °C compared to the native HA. Rheological measurements showed that the elastic modulus of a system based on collagen and HA-g-peptide increased by almost two order of magnitude (G' = 200 Pa) compared to a system based on collagen and HA (G' = 0.9 Pa). Overall, this study showed that the synthetic peptides, which were identified from decorin, can be applied as potential building blocks for biomimetic materials that function via biological recognition.},
