Thomas, Nikita | Cellular ultrastructure of C. elegans nervous system | Determining the ultrastructural organization of the nervous system is a key step in understanding how complex behavior is generated. For a nervous system to function, it must be wired accurately. A complete wiring diagram, referred to as a connectome, can be created by tracing neuronal profiles thro... | Caenorhabditis elegans - Nervous system | 2013-05 |

Little, Nancy Ann | Characterizing and mapping l(3)7E103 a gene required for Drosophila dorsal closure | Dorsal closure in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is a complex morphogenetic process dependent upon three embryonic tissues: the lateral epidermis, leading edge epidermis, and amnioserosa. Additionally, the Jun N-terminal Kinase (JNK) and Decapentaplegic (Dpp) signaling cascades are required f... | Drosophila melanogaster - Genetics; Drosophila melanogaster - Embryology | 2013-05 |

Richards, Jackson | Chasing channels: Progress in calcium channel localization in the C. Elegans synapse | Calcium channels play a crucial role in neurotransmission by facilitating the flow of calcium ions necessary for synaptic vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release. Different types of calcium channels participate in this process in the neurons of the nematode C. elegans. L- and N-type channels res... | Calcium channels; Synaptic vesicles; Caenorhabditis elegans | 2013-05 |

Bell, Anthony W. | The expansion of pinyon-juniper woodland and the appearance of peromyscus truel in the Toiyabe range of central Nevada | In the early twentieth century field biologists from the University of California Museum of Vertebrate Zoology conducted vertebrate faunal surveys throughout the Great Basin region. Over the past several years we have been conducting resurveys of many of the localities visited by MVZ scientists. Our... | Piñon mouse -- Nevada -- Toiyabe Range; Piñon mouse -- Habitat -- Nevada -- Toiyabe Range; Piñon mouse -- Climatic factors -- Nevada -- Toiyabe Range | 2012-05 |

Chure, Griffin Daniel | FLHE influences cellular morphology through control of flagellar assembly in escherichia coli | The bacterial flagellar motor is a complex nanomachine composed of thousands of individual protein subunits. One of these proteins, FlhE, has not been studied in depth and its function is not completely understood. The flhE gene is cotranscribed with flhB and flhA in the flhBAE flagellar operon. In ... | Escherichia coli; Flagella (Microbiology) | 2013-05 |

Trakhimets, Alesia | Pre-clinical trials of anti-neoplastic drugs using zebrafish with T-cell cancer | Note: To agree with NCBI nomenclature guidelines, human gene abbreviations are italicized and capitalized; human protein abbreviations are non-italicized and capitalized, and zebrafish gene abbreviations are italicized in lowercase. T lymphocytes, or T-cells, are blood cells that normally fight vira... | Antineoplastic agents - Testing; Zebra danio | 2013-04 |

Lee, Zachary | Using Drosophila to investigate p53 life-or-death decisions | The p53 tumor suppressor is a central regulator of cellular responses to DNA damage. When DNA damage cannot be repaired most cells undergo p53-dependent cell death. Thisp55-mediated apoptosis is important to eliminate cells with damaged genomes and provides an important block to the development of c... | Biology | 2013-05 |
