  • “To make you see”: Narrating identity, gender, and empire in The Good Soldier and Heart of Darkness

    Creator:
    Jones, Molly M.
    Abstract:
    In Heart of Darkness and The Good Soldier, Joseph Conrad and Ford Madox Ford employ the narrative subjectivity inherent in their Impressionist technique to provide insight into the often-irrational processes through which political and individual identities are constructed through narrative. Contrary to traditional readings of Impressionism as a strictly aesthetic...

  • Prenatal and Early-life Metals Exposure and Immune Function in Children

    Creator:
    Welch, Barrett M.
    Abstract:
    Immune system development during prenatal and early-life periods are essential for healthy development. Environmental and nutritional factors during these periods have strong influences on immune development and can have impacts on disease susceptibility for an individual throughout adulthood. Globally, hundreds of millions of people experience elevated environmental exposure to arsenic,...

  • Consequences of Cryopreservation in Diverse Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Creator:
    Wing, Kieslana M.
    Abstract:
    Experimental evolution is a tool that allows us to measure changes in populations over time in controlled, novel environments. Microbial evolution experiments use cryopreservation – storage at -80°C in glycerol media – to archive experimental populations. Research with Escherichia coli suggests that cryopreservation conditions can affect cell viability and that...

  • Corporate Oregon : A narrative study of Measure 97

    Creator:
    McMorris, Claire M.
    Abstract:
    Oregon Ballot Measure 97 is a contentious measure on the Oregon 2016 ballot that seeks to raise taxes on corporations with sales over 25 million dollars within the state of Oregon. Predictably, there has been a considerable amount of dialogue with the public as well as lobbying among elites to...

  • In Utero Exposure to Arsenic and Mercury : Epigenome-Wide Associations and Newborn Health Outcomes

    Creator:
    Cardenas, Andres
    Abstract:
    Mercury and arsenic are known developmental toxicants and environmental exposures are ubiquitous worldwide from natural and anthropogenic sources. Prenatal exposure to both contaminants are independently associated with adverse perinatal health outcomes and latent disease risk that could be in part mediated by epigenetic reprogramming events. Fetal programming events involving DNA...

  • Environmental Mixtures and Selected Health Outcomes in the US Population

    Creator:
    Przybyla, Jennifer
    Abstract:
    The human health effects of exposure to numerous single environmental contaminants have been well characterized. Yet, biomonitoring studies have detected multiple environmental chemicals in humans, highlighting the need to investigate the health effects of exposure to multiple environmental chemicals. Environmental data is highly complex, therefore current methods of defining environmental...

  • A Dive into the Pacific Fish Microbiome: Exploration of Antibiotics from a Unique Ecosystem

    Creator:
    Austin, Molly C.
    Abstract:
    With the rise of resistant bacterial pathogens, currently prescribed antibiotics are rendered useless. In recent years, marine natural products (MNPs) have emerged as novel sources for drug leads. The ocean is a complex environment where marine animals cohabitate with many, and sometimes harmful microorganisms and viruses, but resist infections. Developed...

  • Political Ideology and Environmental Concern as Predictors of Attitudes toward Forest Management Practices in the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Arnold, Molly L.
    Abstract:
    Few studies examine whether public attitudes toward forest management practices differ between public and private forests, with virtually no recent studies examining these differences in the Pacific Northwest, despite the coexistence of millions of acres of both public and private forest lands. Knowing whether public attitudes differ between public and...

  • Adaptation to long-term osmotic stress in a domesticated Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain

    Creator:
    Holman, Douglas S.
    Abstract:
    Osmotic stress is a common challenge faced by organisms in environments with variable salinity or aridity. Understanding the evolutionary mechanisms underlying adaptation to osmotic stress may have wide applications, including management of populations experiencing climate change, or engineering industrial organisms involved in processes such as fermentation. While Saccharomyces cerevisiae is...

  • Active women with and without menstrual disorders : comparison of resting metabolic rate and energy availability

    Creator:
    Guebels, Charlotte P.
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of exercise-induced menstrual dysfunction (ExMD) ranges between 6-79% in endurance-trained women and may result from a low energy availability (EA; kcal/kgFFM/d). EA is the energy remaining after planned exercise, which is available for basic physiological processes and daily living activities. One mechanism for energy conservation may be a...
