  • Investigating the Impact of Teaching Inclusive Design Concepts on Ecampus Students’ Mindsets

    Creator:
    Garcia, Rosalinda
    Abstract:
    Although computer science (CS) education researchers and practitioners have found ways to improve CS classroom inclusivity, few researchers have considered inclusivity of online CS education.

  • Addressing ALS: Corroborating the Methodology of Studying the P2X7R Complex

    Creator:
    Veytsman, Edward Y.
    Abstract:
    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons in the motor cortex and spinal cord. Recent evidence suggests that the purine receptor P2X7 (P2X7R) plays a central role in the pathology of ALS. Previous research indicates that P2X7R activation by oxidatively modified heat shock protein 90...

  • Exposure to the Mycotoxin Zearalenone Impairs Embryonic Development in Zebrafish

    Creator:
    Sidebotham, Nicole A.
    Abstract:
    A study was conducted to evaluate the developmental toxicity of three commonly detected mycotoxins in food (deoxynivalenol, patulin, and zearalenone) using the zebrafish (Danio rerio) model. Mycotoxin exposures were carried out at five concentrations (0.0064, 0.064, 0.64, 6.4, and 64 μM). Morphological and photomotor screenings were conducted at 24 hours...

    Creator:
    Young, Thomas
    Abstract:
    Rockfish of the genus Sebastes are important components of Oregon reef communities. I examined patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish across two nested spatial scales – local and regional – along the Oregon coast. Using otolith microstructural examination, I examined the relative importance of local versus regional factors...
