Rhizome: Towards An Information Centric OS Shell

Creator:: Corbett, Kira
Abstract:: Rhizome is an information-centric model that uses different interaction methods than traditional desktop systems. I built Rhizome with the specific use case of sharing a photo to observe people using the Rhizome operating system (OS) shell and modern OS shells. The purpose of this is to measure the cognitive load...

Identification of Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Staphylococcus aureus Sortase A Enzyme

Creator:: Bateman, Katherine B.
Abstract:: The Sortase A (SrtA) enzyme is a potential target for a new class of anti-infective drugs because it is responsible for anchoring virulence factors to the surface of pathogenic, Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. High throughput screening yielded low molecular weight compounds that inhibit purified SrtA from S. aureus....

Investigating potential factors that impact aging in Drosophila melanogaster under blue light

Creator:: Sundaram, Subisha
Abstract:: Blue light exposure has been on the rise over the past several years as artificial light in the form of light emitting diodes (LEDs) have been increasing. These LEDs emit predominantly blue light through TVs, computer monitors, smartphones, tablets etc. Previous research in our lab determined that blue light accelerated...

Chromosomal Recombination Targets in Chlamydial Lateral Gene Transfer In Vitro

Creator:: Kim, Debbie Blue
Abstract:: Background: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) among C. trachomatis strains is common, both in isolates generated in the laboratory and those examined directly from patients. This is a challenging concept because there are very few examples of recent acquisition of foreign DNA by Chlamydia spp. There is no understanding of the...

Determination of the relationships between functional genomic content and phenotypic effects of probiotic supplementation on metabolic disease: the first steps toward an efficient pipeline for annotation and analysis

Creator:: Moulton, Zoe
Abstract:: Probiotics are defined as “live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit to the host”. A wide variety of putative probiotics exist on the market; however, clinical evidence of their efficacy is lacking. Probiotics have been previously used in the treatment of metabolic diseases like type...

Interaction of the human Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel 1 protein (VDAC-1) with Mycobacterium avium and its role in bacterial survival within phagocytic cells

Creator:: Pham, Tuan
Abstract:: M. avium is an opportunistic pathogen that primarily infects macrophages. In order to survive within the macrophage, M. avium secretes proteins into the host cell cytoplasm to inhibit specific functions such as phagosome acidification, altering pathways as well as initiating apoptosis. However, little is known about how those secreted proteins...

Mental Health in Eastern Europe during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Depression and Anxiety

Creator:: Miller, Saylor O.
Abstract:: Objective: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis on the prevalence rate of mental health disorders including anxiety, depression, and insomnia during the COVID-19 pandemic in Eastern Europe in the general population, as well as within select sub-populations (i.e., students, general healthcare workers, and frontline workers). Data sources: Articles in PubMed,...

Effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties on hillslopes in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Cole, Ryan
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties of forested hillslopes. The study site was located within the Stouts Creek wildfire, which burned approximately 10,705 ha of forest in southwestern Oregon in summer 2015. Three soil hydraulic properties (soil moisture, unsaturated hydraulic...

HIV and the Transmasculine Community – Can Statistical Significance Be Harmful?

Creator:: Harger, Stephen A.
Abstract:: Epidemiological research on HIV/AIDS seeks to determine at-risk populations not reached by current care. In the forty years since the AIDS epidemic began, transgender people were only recently deemed “at-risk” by the CDC and more action was taken to study them. Most current research centers on transgender women, with transgender...
