1 Dart, EmilyDiversity and metabolic potential of microbial communities in a site of continental serpentinizationThe geochemical process of serpentinization releases energy and organic carbon: two of the basic requirements need ed to support life. Sites of active serpentinization in the deep subsurface provide the intriguing possibility of a non-photosynthetically -supported biosphere. However, serpentinizatio...Microbial ecology - Research; Serpentine - Environmental aspects; Gros Morne National Park (N.L.); Syntrophomonadaceae; Serpentinizaiton; Tabeland Ophiolite2016-05
2 Auduong, PriscillaSpinal muscular atrophy modeled in drosophila melanogasterSpinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is the most commonly inherited cause of death in children (Park, Kariya, & Monani, 2010 for review). This disease is characterized by a loss of motor neurons which leads to muscle degeneration, paralysis, and eventual death by respiratory failure (Monani, 2005 for revie...Spinal muscular atrophy - Research; Drosophila melanogaster - Researcher2012-05
3 Green, AustinMeasuring occupancy and occurrence of medium and large mammals in Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area using motion-activated camera trapsWith expanding urbanization and development, human encroachment on wilderness areas continues to increase. In Utah, much of the once pristine and untouched mountain ecosystems of the Wasatch Front have been developed for recreation and other human use, and this increasing human-wildlife interaction...Red Butte Canyon (Salt Lake County, Utah); Wilderness area monitoring - United States; Wildlife conservation - Utah
4 Jensen, MadelineChanges in microbial diversity in storm-water green infrastructureIncreased urbanization has led to excess nutrients in urban ecosystems. Stormwater Green Infrastructure (SGI) is a method to capture these nutrients and prevent runoff. However, an increased understanding of ecosystem processes is needed to create more efficient SGIs. Past studies have shown that pl...2022
5 Nguyen, NamRoles of Transient Receptor Potenitial Ankyrin-1 and Vanilloid-3 in Endoplasmic Reticulum stress and Cytotoxicity in Lung Epithelial CellsAir pollution is a growing global health issue with considerable local relevance. In particular, exposure to wood smoke particulate matter (WSPM) is associated with the development and exacerbation of chronic inflammatory conditions and irreversible damage of the airways and alveoli. However, exact ...2020
6 Beseris, EthanBiological impact protection in human facial hairOur study investigated selective mechanisms that influenced the evolution of facial hair in human males (Homo sapiens). Beards are often perceived as an indicator of masculinity and social dominance in men, suggesting that they may play a role in male contest competition. Some authors propose that t...2018
7 Christensen, KianaQuantifying Patterns of Squamate Dental ComplexitySquamate reptiles are ideal subjects for investigating relationships between diet and dentition patterns because they exhibit wide dietary diversity and taxonomic abundance. Most previous research is qualitative and limited to a basic assessment of the influence diet has on dentition (Hotton, 1955; ...2020
