  • Porous metal-organic materials for gas capture

    Creator:
    Rookard, Tanner Daniel
    Abstract:
    Metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) are discrete molecules comprised of a metal and interconnecting ligands. The resulting MOP structures are porous cages, and to date, they have shown great promise toward gas capture. Ammonia is a hazardous gas that is produced in enormous quantities for use in fertilizers. In this talk, I...

  • A Panel of Histone H3 Mutations to Investigate Centromere Maintenance and Gene Silencing

    Creator:
    Geisler, Mark S.
    Abstract:
    Histones, as part of nucleosomes, are responsible for DNA packaging in chromosomes. They also affect DNA expression by a multitude of post-translational modifications, especially prevalent on the amino terminus of histones. Co-activator protein complexes “write”, “read”, or “erase” histone modifications, and in balance determine which sections of DNA are free...

  • Application of Infrared Spectroscopy for Determination of Wood Natural Durability

    Creator:
    Lipeh, Shahlinney
    Abstract:
    Natural durability remains one of the most attractive characteristics of wood, and helps wood obtain a premium price. A worldwide shift towards the use of younger trees from intensively managed forests has created greater concerns about wood quality, especially the wood’s resistance to fungi and insects. Wood durability is assessed...

  • Measuring Anti-Müllerian Hormone Concentrations to Determine Reproductive Status in Female Rabbits

    Creator:
    Meeker, Alissa R.
    Abstract:
    There are over two million pet rabbits in the United States. Many rabbits are obtained as adults from pet stores and humane societies. Pet rabbit owners may elect to perform ovariohysterectomy (spay) surgeries on female rabbits to prevent unwanted pregnancies as well as to eliminate the possibility of reproductive disorders...

  • Emergent Properties of Animal Social Networks: Five Stories in Five Systems

    Creator:
    Devan-Song, E. Anne
    Abstract:
    Animals aggregate and interact in nonuniform and nonrandom patterns, which lead to group level characteristics that have important evolutionary and ecological consequences. Network analysis provides a useful conceptual framework for linking animal interactions at all scales from dyads to communities, to populations and ecosystems. Despite exciting theoretical and applied advances...
