Kinetics of plankton respiration across gradient of anoxic to oxic conditions

Creator:: Jayawickrama, Clare
Abstract:: Ocean deoxygenation is predicted to increase in severity over the next few decades, posing a threat to marine life and fishing economies. Improved predictions of ocean deoxygenation depend on a better understanding of the biogeochemical mechanisms that underly this process. Within the realm of biogeochemical mechanisms, this project specifically investigated...

Importance of TLR2 and TLR4 signaling against M. abscessus infection of macrophages and use of mycobacteriophage genomics toward understanding some of the aspects of phage therapy

Creator:: Kapoor, Hannah A.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB) is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for infections in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients. Even with long-term treatment with multiple antibiotics, MAB pulmonary infections have high rates of treatment failure. Within the host, MAB is phagocytosed by key innate immune cells macrophages. The TLR2 and TLR4 are two critical...

Studying the ancient parasitic cnidarian, Sphaerospora elegans, leads to better understanding of oligochaete diversity and myxozoan discovery

Creator:: Lehrburger, David J.
Abstract:: Myxozoans are microscopic parasites, related to corals and jellyfish. Most Myxozoa probably have two-host lifecycles that require a vertebrate (typically fish) and invertebrate (annelid or bryozoan). However no life cycle is known from the Sphaerospora lineage. I hypothesized that the life cycle of Sphaerospora elegans, a myxozoan parasite of three-spined...

The Immune Raccoon: Creating A Children’s Book Aimed at Immunology Education

Creator:: Laptova, Anna
Abstract:: Vaccines are an incredibly important piece of preventative medicine, yet trends have emerged of parents refusing to vaccinate their children. My goal was to create an illustrated storybook that summarizes what a vaccine is, and how it enhances the body to fight disease. The book is designed to be read...

The Development and Application of a Systems Biology Approach to Mapping Monocyte Gene Regulatory Networks.

Creator:: Choudhury, Mudra
Abstract:: While monocytes are vital for host defense against pathogens, in cases of non-resolving inflammation, monocytes and their differentiated progeny can secrete tissue-damaging factors, present auto-antigens, and promote the inflammatory response. In this study, a systems biology approach was used to map human monocyte gene regulatory regions by integrating expression quantitative...

The introduction of myxozoan parasites through the release of feeder goldfish (Carassius auratus)

Creator:: Karandashova, Sophia
Abstract:: Myxozoa have been found worldwide; these parasites infect a wide variety of hosts, but have been found most often in fish. Carassius auratus (goldfish), a popular aquarium fish and a widespread invasive species, have been identified as an intermediate host for several myxozoan species. Some myxozoan parasites are pathogenic and...

Sonification of DNA Chromatogram Data of Lionepha Species

Creator:: Adams, Lili
Abstract:: Sonification is an emerging field that highlights and translates the patterns of data into sound. In this way, the auditory sense functions as an interface for transmitting information in a meaningful way. There have been many previous applications of sonification in research and professional settings. However, this field remains an...

A genomic and proteomic characterization of the first cultured oligotrophic marine Gammaproteobacterium from the SAR92 clade

Creator:: Mellbye, Brett L.
Abstract:: High-throughput culturing (HTC) consisting of extinction culturing in autoclaved seawater has led to the isolation and characterization of many novel strains of oligotrophic marine bacteria. Strain HTCC 2207 was isolated from the Oregon coast by the HTC method. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that this strain...

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...
