Fernandez, Florence | Evaluation of environmental education in high school science courses across Salt Lake City, Utah | While the effects of pollution become Incredibly more evident in the air of the Salt Lake Valley, many Utah high school students still lack the knowledge and information necessary to take preventative and immediate actions to protect their health and their environment. In this study, the reasons for... | Environmental education -- Utah -- Salt Lake City; Science -- Study and teaching -- Utah -- Salt Lake City; Air -- Pollution -- Utah -- Salt Lake City | 2015-05 |

Borodai, Anastasia S. | Faraday @ Home Continuing Faraday from the "U" to the Youth | Recent attention has been brought to light in the United States regarding the lack of students pursuing STEM disciplines and degree programs. There is a considerable amount of research on the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) Education at an early onset age. With this is... | | 2017 |

Godfrey, Rose | A porcine model for the development and testing of preoperative skin preparations | Clinical preoperative skin preparations (PSPs) do not eradicate skin flora dwelling in the deepest dermal regions. Survivors constitute a persistent infection risk. In search of solutions, we created a porcine model intended for PSP developmental testing. This model employed microbiological techniqu... | | 2022 |

Aderibigbe, Justis | Trends in the usage of bidentate phosphines as ligands in nickel catalysis of hydrogenation reactions | A critically important process in catalysis is the formation of an active catalyst from the combination of a metal precursor and a ligand, as the efficacy of this reaction governs the amount of active catalyst. This review is a compacted but comprehensive review of reactions catalyzed by nickel and ... | | 2021 |

Cowley, Jacob | Optimization of total synthesis of indolizidine alkaloids VIA nickel catalyzed (4 + 2) cyclization utilizing silyl and stannyl alkynes | In order to expand the versatility of the synthetic route to naturally occurring indolizidine alkaloids previously developed in the Louie Group, a path was developed using a bicyclic azetidinone to produce indolizidine alkaloids such as (+)-seco-antofine. However, due to the asymmetric nature of the... | | 2021 |

Walker, Kortnie | Understanding and treating diabetic retinopathy | Diabetic retinopathy is a neurovascular disease of the retina and is the leading cause of blindness in the working-age population in the United States. Complications as a result of hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus (DM) break down the blood-retina barrier (BRB) and retinal vasculature. Current tre... | Diabetic retinopathy | 2015-05 |

Gerton, Marina | Effects of carbon sources on secondary metabolite production by teredinibacter turnerae | Shipworms are wood-digesting marine bivalves that rely upon symbiotic bacteria for cellulose digestion. The symbiotic bacteria, which grow intracellularly in shipworm gill tissue, produce cellulases that are then transported to the shipworm's cecum. It has also been hypothesized that the bacteria pr... | | 2023 |

Ballif, Micah | Drugs and Pregnancy: Clinical Management with a Cystic Fibrosis Focus | Despite the large number of women who become pregnant and use a medication during their pregnancy, there is very little information about the safety of the majority of medications. Most drugs approved by the FDA have undetermined teratogenic risk, but their use is prevalent in the management of dise... | | 2019 |
