Exploring the Role of Nutrient Sensing Pathways in Blue Light-Induced Lifespan Reduction in Drosophila

Creator:: Shimoda, Kelsey A.
Abstract:: People are increasingly staring at device screens which emit predominantly blue light. Because LED technology is relatively new, we do not know what effects blue light has on our long-term health. Blue light exposure leads to a dramatic decrease in longevity in Drosophila, thus this study aims to explore possible...

Effect of Fire Severity on Forest Development in a Mature Douglas-fir Forest in Western Oregon

Creator:: Hidzick, Maxim S.
Abstract:: Wildfires can create alternative pathways for forest development, and wildfires have expanded in size, frequency, intensity, and severity across the western United States. The purpose of this paper is to compare forest development of a mature Douglas-fir forest in western Oregon across fire severities. Postburn field measurements were collected in...

Tracking the Range Expansion of a Native Bee, the Squash Bee, Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa; (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Oregon using Community Science

Creator:: Jones, Miranda L.
Abstract:: The foraging distance of bees has been intensely studied. In contrast, little is known about the factors that determine bee dispersal distance, especially on large spatial scales. Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa is a wild ground nesting bee that exclusively collects pollen from squash in the genus Cucurbita. Although the bee occurs...

Modifying Perception: How Clothing and Context Influence the Objectification of Women

Creator:: Sherman, Megan
Abstract:: The objectification of women is a scourge of society, related to a host of negative mental and physical health implications for women. Objectification is largely influenced by the types of clothing worn. How much is objectification modified by contextual features (e.g., the situations the clothes are worn in)? In two...

Exploring the Gut Microbiome of Captive Elephas maximus Experiencing Abnormal Feces

Creator:: Singh, Sehajvir
Abstract:: The gut microbiome of all mammals is composed of a diverse commune of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, archaea, protozoa and viruses 1. Studies have shown a symbiotic relationship between the gut microbiome and host physiology, with there being implications in health and disease progression 2. In captive animals, there has...

A Fabrication Process and Analysis of ZnO-ZnS-Sb₂S3₃ Thin Film Solar Cells

Creator:: Catherall, David
Abstract:: The purpose of this research is to provide a simple fabrication method for zinc oxide and antimony sulfide based thin film solar cells. Both a ZnO nanorod electron conducting structure and a stibnite absorber show promise in a solar cell. Initial attempts at using only ZnO and Sb2S3, however, resulted...

Teaching fundamental computer science concepts utilizing manipulatives

Creator:: Berliner, Garrett
Abstract:: This thesis presents innovative pedagogical approaches to teach fundamental Computer Science (CS) concepts, such as abstraction, representation, algorithms, and computation utilizing manipulatives, which are physical objects that students interact with to teach or reinforce a concept. Teaching and learning with manipulatives has a long history in science and mathematics education,...

Sonification as a pathway to knowledge

Creator:: Fitch, Russell Alan
Abstract:: This paper explores the use of sonification, the conversion of data into sound, to convey the significance of SARS-COV-2 and its global impact. It emphasizes sonification as a valuable tool for making complex data accessible, particularly in high school education. Sonification, an interdisciplinary field, leverages the human auditory system's pattern...
