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...

Variation in Irc7p activity amongst brewing strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Vega, Esteban A.
Abstract:: Polyfunctional thiols are sulfur containing compounds that are important to the flavor and aroma profile of some foods and beverages. S. Cerevisiae has been shown in wine yeast that it is capable of producing these thiols to create a fruity aroma and flavor profile. IRC7, a gene that codes the...

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...

Introduction of a Mathematical Model to Characterize Relative Risk of Snakebite Envenoming, a Neglected Tropical Disease

Creator:: Kim, Soyeon
Abstract:: Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that has received increased research attention in the past few years. However, snakebite prevalence and impact in India has been a neglected area of study, despite the high disease burden in this region. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches to studying snakebite processes are...

Associations Between Parenting Practices and Decision-Making Competence inEmerging Adults: A Prospective Study

Creator:: Michaels, Linsie
Abstract:: Developmental research has suggested that parenting practices may impact the development of risk behaviors later in life. However, little evidence exists regarding how parenting may impact actual decision processes that precede poor choices. This study examined how parenting practices in early childhood influence the development of decision-making competence (DMC), a...

Artistic Interpretation of the Significance of Human Breast Cancer Cell Vinculin Distribution in Different Extracellular Matrix Conditions

Creator:: Hsiao, Yu-Tin
Abstract:: There are clues that suggest human breast cancer cells use collagen fibers to migrate, and vinculin is a transmembrane protein associated with how cells attach to their environment. Therefore, immunostaining for the vinculin will shed some light in how human breast cancer cells are attaching to their environment. Immunostaining for...

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...

Development of micro-wire solid-state sensors for the real-time detection of metabolites at the Streptococcus mutans biofilm-biomaterial interface

Creator:: Aponso, Savinda
Abstract:: We have developed a 100 m diameter solid-state potentiometric pH sensor to study the bacterial metabolism at the biofilm-biomaterial interface in real-time. The newly developed agar-coated pH sensor is both highly resistant to biofouling and stable, with a drift of 1 mV/h in physiological conditions. We used multiwall carbon nanotubes...

Flax as a Structural Reinforcement for Polymers

Creator:: McGeorge, Haley K.
Abstract:: Flax fibers are frequently used as a sustainable and recyclable reinforcement for composite materials in aesthetic applications (ex. car interiors). Flax fibers are biodegradable and can be sustainably harvested. Furthermore, the question of how to dispose of flax reinforced materials after the end of their lifetime can be solved in...

Involvement of PP6 in Dephosphorylation of Bcl11b, a Tumor Suppressor Transcription Factor

Creator:: Parker, Chelsea R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this honors thesis research project is to investigate the molecular causes of childhood and infant T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias. T-cells are the work horses of the immune system, and like any organ, must develop properly to be fully functional. Improper development of thymocytes into T-cells can lead...
