Genetic Analysis of Non-Apoptotic Programmed Cell Death
(2017-06-26)Programmed cell death (PCD) serves a variety of key roles during development and homeostasis. In most cases, PCD occurs via apoptosis, a highly orchestrated process that is primarily dependent on the activity of caspase ... -
Genetic Analysis of Programmed Cell Death
(2021-05-14)The larval fat bodies of Drosophila melanogaster are responsible for storing energy from the larval feeding stages for use during pupal development. In most larval tissues, programmed cell death (PCD) is triggered by two ... -
Genetic Analysis of Tissue Remodeling and Lipid Storage in Drosophila melanogaster
(2020-07-06)Tissue remodeling has been used as a model to study cancer. It is also an important process during the development of Drosophila melanogaster. During D. melanogaster metamorphosis, which is the transition from the larva ... -
The Genetic Control of Fat Body Development and Function in Drosophila melanogaster
(2013-05-08)All living organisms struggle to maintain homeostasis. Organisms have evolved various mechanisms to be able to cope with any changes in temperature, pH or nutrient availability. Mammals, for example put a great amount of ... -
A Genetic Screen for Genes Involved in Tissue Remodeling
(2016-06-20)Tissue remodeling is vital to the health of any multicellular organism. Drosophila melanogaster, which undergoes tissue remodeling during metamorphosis, provides an excellent model to study this process due to highly ... -
Genetics for fun - How to Improve Eyesight and my Adventurous Self
(2018-03-26)Breathtaking scenery, green as far as the eye can see, and horses in every field initially sparked my love for Ireland. My dream to travel to, and work in Ireland was realized this past summer when I received the opportunity ... -
Geochemical Investigation of Weathering in a High Arctic Watershed and Provenance of Sediments in Kongressvatnet, Svalbard, Norway
(2009-07-14)Maya, researched the sediment source provenance in the Lake Kongress watershed. She then analyzed downcore sediment chemistry to determine the sources of sediment entering the lake, the origin of annually deposited sediment ... -
Geology Underfoot - An Investigation of Jurassic Lacustrine Stratigraphy in the Lower Half of the Portland Formation on the Campus of Mount Holyoke College
(2022-07-01)During the summer of 2020, Mount Holyoke College commissioned a geothermal company to drill a 6-inch diameter, 800-foot-deep borehole on campus grounds to measure the geothermal potential of the underlying geology. Professor ... -
Geomedia, Mining, and Mobility Justice: The Matter of Cloud Computing and Bitcoin
Technology never operates on its own, but is always about how people use it, how we put things together and make them work. The “material turn” in media studies and mobilities research highlights the geopolitical and ... -
Geopolitics at Play: Trans and Intersex Athletes in Elite Sports
(2023-01-23)At the foundation of many iterations of the conversation around trans and intersex athletes in competitive sports, there is a common foundational understanding that there ‘must be a male winner and a female winner,’ thus ... -
George Eliot’s Romola: A Victorian Perspective on Renaissance Florence
(2017-06-30)Most of George Eliot’s novels were set in nineteenth-century England, but her vivid historical novel Romola – which places a well-educated female protagonist in Renaissance Florence – was an exception to this rule. Romola ... -
Gesture Elicitation for Image Editing
(2013-06-13)Natural User Interfaces (NUIs) represent one of the most important steps that computer scientists have taken towards shaping a more intuitive, more detached kind of interaction with the technological sphere. NUIs, which ... -

Getting Intimate with Law
(2015-08-24)Whenever you watch a legal drama on T.V., you are immediately drawn in by the glitz and glamour that accompanies the legal profession. It is suppose to be fun, economically fulfilling and absolutely perfect. Nonetheless, ... -
Glacial Ablation Dynamics and Sediment Flux at Linnèbreen, Spitsbergen
(2009-07-14)Eric's project focused on the glacier ablation dynamics and sediment release from the Linne' Glacier during the 2006 ablation season. -
The Glaciofluvial Environment of Linnébreen, Spitsbergen, Svalbard
(2012-07-03)Suspended sediment concentrations (SSC), meltwater discharge and local climatic conditions of the Linné glaciofluvial system were monitored from July 21 to August 9, 2010 in order to determine the temporal relationships ... -
Glaciomarine Oceanographic and Suspended Sediment Dynamics, Kongsbreen system, Svalbard
(2012-07-03)Quantifying estuarine circulation and the resulting sediment dynamics of tidewater glaciers is crucial to developing an understanding of these dynamic systems, and their response to climate and sea level change. This study ... -
Glycoprotein Biogenesis: Optimization of N- Acetylglucosaminidase, Lysosomal Neuraminidase, and Protective Protein Cathepsin A Expression
(2011-05-12)Humans depend on lysosomal enzymes for proper macromolecular degradation. In their absence, lysosomal catabolism is impaired, leading to Lysosomal Storage Diseases (LSDs) (Meikle, 2003). LSDs are characterized by accumulations ... -
