Understanding the Similarities and Differences Between Academia and the Engineering Workplace through Barriers to Adoption, Epistemic Beliefs, and Problem-Solving Behavior

Creator:: Gestson, Sean Lyle
Abstract:: Engineering education research has led to a greater understanding of the gap in preparedness of students for the engineering industry. Multiple studies comparing the workplace and academic contexts and the participants in those contexts (i.e., students, faculty, and engineering practitioners) have emphasized similarities and differences between the two contexts by...

Innovative Bioanalytical Tools & Methods for Combinatorial Non-Coding RNA Analysis

Creator:: Zhang, Lulu
Abstract:: Recently researchers have discovered that groups of small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play regulatory roles in gene expression and participate in various biological processes. For example, pathogenesis of many diseases, cell cycle regulation, and signaling pathways. Intracellular and live cell imaging of small ncRNA groups will reveal their relative expression levels...

Displacement-based fluorescent microRNA biosensors : design principles and analytical metrics

Creator:: Larkey, Nicholas E.
Abstract:: One post-transcriptional mechanism that regulates the progression of cancer and other diseases involves small 22-23 nucleotide sequences called microRNA (miR). Early detection of small changes in concentration of these biomarkers holds potential to diagnose diseases at their earliest stages. Use of current nucleic-acid based biosensors, like molecular beacons, for in...

Decision support systems for forest biodiversity management : a review of tools and an analytical-deliberative framework for understanding their successful application

Creator:: Gordon, Sean N.
Abstract:: The complexity of forest management has increased with the scope of resources of concern and the level of scrutiny from stakeholders. The design and use of specialized computer software, often referred to as “decision support systems” (DSS), is one method for helping managers deal with this complexity. DSS have proven...

Crossing Boundaries during Stress Responses: Antigen Presentation by Adaptive and Innate MHC Class I Molecules

Creator:: Nagamine, Brandy S.
Abstract:: The immune system is a complex network of cellular processes working in harmony to guard us against pathogenic attack. Of utmost importance is the ability of the immune system to discriminate between “self” and “non-self” and diseased versus healthy. Recognition of antigens complexed to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules is...

Regulation of skeletal muscle mitochondria in response to obesity and exercise in mice and humans

Creator:: Batterson, Philip M.
Abstract:: Skeletal muscle mitochondria are highly plastic organelles, integral to whole-body health. High-fat diet (HFD) and exercise remodel the skeletal muscle mitochondria. Whereby, altered skeletal muscle mitochondrial function is linked to decreased skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity which can be reversed by exercise. However, the mechanisms that contribute to skeletal muscle remodeling...

Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Insulin Action and Fatty Acid Trafficking with Obesity and Exercise

Creator:: Stierwalt, Harrison D.
Abstract:: Altered skeletal muscle fat metabolism is linked to changes in skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity. Whereby the accumulation of bioactive signaling lipids (i.e., diacylglycerols and ceramides) within skeletal muscle are negatively associated with insulin sensitivity and the exercise-induced changes to fatty acid trafficking are related to improved skeletal muscle insulin action....

Capturing Molecular Movies of Organic and Organometallic Systems in Solution by Ultrafast Spectroscopy

Creator:: Boulanger, Sean A.
Abstract:: Ultrafast spectroscopy can exploit the structure-function relationship of chemical- and biological-based systems. More specifically, femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) provides ground- and excited-state vibrational information with simultaneously high spectral (spatial) and temporal resolutions. The electronic counterpart, femtosecond transient absorption (fs-TA), complements FSRS data analysis as part of a comprehensive approach...

Pseudoloma neurophilia in the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Consequences of Infection on Neurobehavioral and Biomedical Research using a Burgeoning Model Organism

Creator:: Spagnoli, Sean
Abstract:: Since its inception as a laboratory animal in the early 1970s, the zebrafish has proven itself a rising star in the world of comparative biomedical sciences due to its short generation time, ease of care, external fertilization, and transparent larvae. In a very few decades, the zebrafish has been utilized...

CoLocalized Excitation Emission Resolution : A CLEER approach for multicolor fluorescence analysis

Creator:: Almlie, C. Kyle
Abstract:: Fluorescence has proven to be a robust and powerful method of analysis in numerous fields: forensics, pharmaceutics, geology, food science, and environmental sciences have all developed a large collection of fluorescence instruments and methods to overcome application-specific challenges. Biological applications saw the same development of a fluorescence toolkit with methods...
