  • An Investigation of Ceratomyxa shasta sporulation following death of itsChinook salmon host

    Creator:
    Soderlund, Krista M.
    Abstract:
    As pre-spawning mortality (PSM) in Chinook salmon in the Willamette River Valley becomes a more defined and examined area of study, more focus is granted to not only preserving the health of these fish, but also expanding knowledge concerning various pathogens that utilize the salmon as hosts and may be...

  • Red Raspberry Production Cost Comparison in Oregon and Chile

    Creator:
    McGuire, Madilynne J.
    Abstract:
    Red raspberry markets in both Chile and Oregon are affected by factors in each other‟s production processes. As seen in the late 1990‟s changes in pricing and supply can hinder the competitive edge of markets, pushing producers into economic hardship. Thus, the need to know the competition‟s methods is presented....

  • The Location of the Neutral Axis in Wood Beams with Multiple Knots

    Creator:
    Voigt, Levi R.
    Abstract:
    In a homogenous and isotropic material, the location of the neutral axis coincides with the location of the centroid of the beam. Wood is anisotropic, meaning that it has different properties in different directions. It is also non-homogenous, meaning that the beam exhibits different properties at different locations throughout its...

    Parker, Kari
    Abstract:
    Industries such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), continue to employ fewer women compared to men. These professions that are traditionally considered more masculine sustain gender-imbalanced work forces and are also unattractive to women at an academic level. This thesis explores the hypothesis that performance can be a powerful...

  • Characterization of Quorum-Sensing Diversity in Environmental Pseudomonas aeruginosa Populations

    Creator:
    Grellmann, Elise Kaylene
    Abstract:
    While the quorum-sensing (QS) diversity of the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been well established in cystic fibrosis (CF) lung infections and in vitro experiments, little is known about its QS-diversity in natural environments. One significant QS-deficient behavior is social cheating. Social cheaters contain mutations that prevent them from producing...

  • Biophysical Characterization of the Yorkie-Mask Complex

    Creator:
    Bessette, Hannah
    Abstract:
    Yes-associated protein (YAP) in mammals and Yorkie (Yki) in Drosophila are functionally homologous proteins that partner with transcription factors to promote cell proliferation. The Drosophila protein Mask and its mammalian homolog MASK1 are examples of transcription factors that are essential for Yki/ YAP to drive transcription of target genes. Increased...

  • It's not about the school : a societal shift regarding higher education

    Creator:
    Schnell, Kristina N.
    Abstract:
    The idea of college needs to shift from being about going to a “good school” for any degree to "getting the right education” for what you want to do. I want to investigate why we should be giving access to career assessment and preferred learning tests at the middle school...

  • Activation of Co-stimulatory Molecule OX40 Increases Memory T-cell Function and Cytokine Production in Uveitis

    Creator:
    Hall, Mark
    Abstract:
    Uveitis is a serious ophthalmological disorder characterized by intraocular infiltration of inflammatory cells. In most cases, uveitis is derived from the adaptive immune response. More specifically, CD4+ T lymphocytes play an important role in the pathogenesis of uveitis by recognizing uveitogenic antigen and orchestrating the immune response. While it is...

    Creator:
    Pearson, Tabitha
    Abstract:
    Astragalus peckii Piper is a threatened Oregon endemic in the pea family (Fabaceae). This species faces extinction due to loss of habitat. Recovery efforts include augmenting existing populations and creating new ones. The purpose of this study was to determine the best methodology for population augmentation of Astragalus peckii by...

    Creator:
    Du Plessis, Lihani
    Abstract:
    Prior to World War One, plastic surgery, as in its present form, was yet unfounded and not recognized as a genuine medical specialty. The carnage of the war prompted Britain to establish a specialized treatment center for plastic surgery, first at Aldershot and then at Sidcup, under the leadership of...
