Because iso- and anisohydric species differ in stomatal regulation
of the rate and magnitude of fluctuations in shoot
water potential, they may be expected to show differences in
the plasticity of their shoot water relations components, but
explicit comparisons of this nature have rarely been made.

First-year tree seedlings represent a particularly vulnerable life stage and successful seedling establishment is crucial for forest
regeneration. We investigated the extent to which Pinus ponderosa P. & C. Lawson populations from different climate zones
exhibit differential expression of functional traits that may facilitate their establishment. Seeds from two populations...

Expensive pricing for laboratory bioreactors proves to be the main barrier-to-entry for lab-scale academic research. Most laboratory bioreactors are priced at $100K+ and require significant training to use, thereby limiting their accessibility. The IDEAL (Intuitive, Developmental And Research Oriented, Easy To Use, Affordable, And Low Volume) Bioreactor aims to solve...
Simulation has provided much design inspiration for the field of robotics. While many astute ideas can be computationally formulated, there are some good structures in animals that people call “biologically-inspired”. Many robots are designed based on natural creatures such as crabs, spiders, etc. Before we can take full advantage of...
Sex education plays a critical role in the development of youth sexual health and wellbeing. An ideal program is taught with honesty in an inclusive and respectful environment where students learn strategies to lower their risk of unwanted sexual outcomes, communication skills to build and navigate relationships, and necessary knowledge...
Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) is a genetic tumor disorder caused by mutations that inactivate the gene coding for the Merlin tumor suppressor. Patients with NF2 develop multiple tumors throughout the nervous system, mainly schwannomas, for which there is no cure or effective treatment. In NF2, redox signaling and oxidative stress...
