Genomics of Antler Size in Whitetail Deer
The genotypic factors that affect antler size in whitetail deer are currently unknown. Environmental factors, such as nutrition, have been studied and have been shown to affect antler size, but the role of genomic variation ...
Modulation of the Endothelial Phenotype by Transforming Growth Factor-β2 and Nck Signaling
The development of solid tumors and atherosclerosis requires neovascularization. In contrast to blood vessels of healthy organs, blood vessels associated with atherosclerosis and tumors are poorly organized and leaky. ...
Evaluating the Statewide Effects of HIFA Waivers on Substance Use Disorder Treatment
In 2010, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was signed into effect by former President Barack Obama. The act had the intention of expanding Medicaid and making healthcare more affordable and accessible for Americans by drastically ...
Accurately Combining Skeletal Models
Skeletal tracings are a compact and efficient way of storing large amounts of data and are particularly useful for analysis in the world of biological data. One of the largest issues with skeletal tracings is that they are ...
Joint Source-channel Coding Using Machine Learning Techniques
Most modern communication systems rely on separate source encoding and channel encoding schemes to transmit data. Despite the long-lasting success of separate schemes, joint source channel coding schemes have been proven ...
Developing Protein Tags for Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry to Determine Protein Interaction
The development of protein tags that enable the analysis of proteins with high multiplexity, in the context of cellular interactions. Nanoparticle and metal chelated tags were developed and utilized by Secondary Ion Mass ...
The Influence of Alcohol Exposure on Alternative Splicing of the G9a Histone Methyltransferase
Alternative splicing is a mechanism that leads to the generation of multiple mature mRNA products from a single gene. This process can produce isoforms, resulting in proteome diversity. In this study, we explore how EtOH ...
The Evolution of Ideas about Sport through Medieval Literature
The purpose of this research is to understand how societal ideas surrounding sport have evolved from the time of Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur in the fifteenth century to more modern adaptations of his work by T.H. ...
Examining the Link Between Discrimination and Pain Physiology
There are well-documented pain disparities across sociodemographic groups (Campbell & Edwards, 2012), however, the physiological mechanisms behind these disparities are not well- known. The proposed research explores whether ...
Re-Creating the Sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Over the course of the school year, we intend to create a short film centered around the sinking of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald. Up until this point, there has been thorough research in the conditions surrounding the sinking ...
