Cloning the zebrafish otoferlin b wildtype and a transmembrane mutant to characterize changes in cellular localization

Creator:: France, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: Otoferlin is a protein that is essential in the process of hearing. Mutations in otoferlin are associated with profound recessive deafness. The long-term goal of the Johnson lab is to understand how otoferlin contributes to hearing and why certain mutations result in deafness. This project sought to characterize the difference...

Coastal protection and conservation on sandy beaches and dunes : Context-dependent tradeoffs in ecosystem service supply

Creator:: Ruggiero, Peter, Seabloom, Eric W., Hacker, Sally D., Biel, Reuben G., and Cohn, Nicholas
Abstract:: Managing multiple ecosystem services (ESs) across landscapes presents a central challenge for ecosystem-based management, because services often exhibit spatiotemporal variation and weak associations with co-occurring ESs. Further focus on the mechanistic relationships among ESs and their underlying biophysical processes provides greater insight into the causes of variation and covariation among...

Discovery of a dune-building hybrid beachgrass (Ammophila arenaria × A. breviligulata) in the U.S. Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Mostow, Rebecca S., Barreto, Felipe, Biel, Reuben, Meyer, Eli, and Hacker, Sally D.
Abstract:: The production of novel hybrid zones is an ecologically important consequence of globally increasing rates of species introductions and invasions. Interspecific hybridization can facilitate gene flow between parent species or produce novel taxa that may alter invasion dynamics or ecosystem services. The coastal sand dunes of the U.S. Pacific Northwest...

Potentially adaptive mitochondrial haplotypes as a tool to identify divergent nuclear loci

Creator:: Garvin, Michael R., Templin, William D., Gharrett, Anthony J., DeCovich, Nick, Kondzela, Christine M., Guyon, Jeffrey R., and McPhee, Megan V.
Abstract:: 1. Genetic tools are commonly used for conservation and management of at-risk species. Individuals are often sampled from mixtures that are composed of many populations, which creates a need to assign individuals to their source. This can be problematic when the genetic divergence among source populations is weak but can...

Exploring Marine and Aeolian Controls on Coastal Foredune Growth Using a Coupled Numerical Model

Creator:: Cohn, Nicholas, Hoonhout, Bas M., Goldstein, Evan B., de Vries, Sierd, Moore, Laura J., Vinent, Orencio Duran, and Ruggiero, Peter
Abstract:: Coastal landscape change represents aggregated sediment transport gradients from spatially and temporally variable marine and aeolian forces. Numerous tools exist that independently simulate subaqueous and subaerial coastal profile change in response to these physical forces on a range of time scales. In this capacity, coastal foredunes have been treated primarily...

Monomerization of far-red fluorescent proteins

Creator:: Wannier, Timothy M., Gillespie, Sarah K., Hutchins, Nicholas, McIsaac, R. Scott, Wu, Sheng-Yi, Shen, Yi, Campbell, Robert E., Brown, Kevin S., and Mayo, Stephen L.
Abstract:: Anthozoa-class red fluorescent proteins (RFPs) are frequently used as biological markers, with far-red (lambda(em) similar to 600-700 nm) emitting variants sought for whole-animal imaging because biological tissues are more permeable to light in this range. A barrier to the use of naturally occurring RFP variants as molecular markers is that...

Error Propagation in Sap Flow Measurements Using the Heat Ratio Method

Creator:: Miller, Jackson T.
Abstract:: Accurate estimation of the amount of water used by trees is important for a variety of agricultural applications. There are several current methodologies for measuring sap flow and water use in trees, however the heat ratio method has been identified as the ideal due to its ability to measure low...

Community Risk Factors for Post-Hurricane Disease

Creator:: Hultberg, Kate
Abstract:: This thesis explores interrelationships between the geographical impact of recent hurricanes, rates of giardiasis and cryptosporidiosis in impacted communities, and effects of hurricanes on local water infrastructure systems. I obtained quantitative data on geographical hurricane attributes, demographic characteristics of populations struck by hurricanes, and confirmed cases of giardiasis and cryptosporidiosis...

Beyond Suffrage: Giving Voice to Oregon’s Unsung Women in Medicine

Creator:: Carr, Sujittra Avery
Abstract:: This exhibit was designed to increase awareness of the stories and voices of women who are not heard enough in our Oregon history of women’s rights. Systemic white supremacy, racism, and sexism combine to render some women less visible than others in our history. These women might not have been...

“A Fool For His Client:” Religion, Law, and Insanity in Nineteenth-Century America

Creator:: Reck, Logan A.
Abstract:: When Charles Guiteau killed U.S. President James Garfield, he claimed that God had ordered him to do so. During his trial, Guiteau’s lawyers plead not guilty by reason of insanity, and the question of Guiteau’s innocence or guilt quickly became a question about the very nature of insanity itself. In...
