Waller, Rosalie G. | Exome sequence comparison of seventy-seven multiple myeloma cases identifies potential risk alleles | Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a heritable cancer of plasma cells with poor prognosis. Although a few genomic risk-loci have been identified for MM, no risk variants have been published that explain MM heritability. We hypothesize MM heritability is due to rare germ-line variants that can be discovered th... | Multiple myeloma -- Genetic aspects; Exomes; Exome sequence; Risk alleles | 2015-05 |

Black, Taylor Madison | Impacts of Tobacco Smoke Exposure and Outlier Body Mass Indices on Pediatric Asthma Outcomes | There are seven million children in the United States impacted by asthma [1]. When assessing the severity of a child's asthma, it is important to take into account risk factors known to affect child hood asthma. Two such risk factors that are modifiable include parental tobacco smoke exposure (TSE)... | Asthma - Child; Tobacco smoke - Health aspects - United States | 2015-05 |

Javdan, Shwan | Targeted HPMA copolymer-gemcitabine conjugates for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma | Each year in the United States, over 14,000 women die from ovarian cancer. Anthracyclines-a class of chemotherapeutics-have long been the primary treatment for this and many other cancers, yet they often leave patients with cardiotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and a number of other adverse effects.
