Galloping Toward My Future: Bridging the Divide Between Communitcations and the Equine Industry
(2018-03-27)Communications is a little-known, but exceptionally important element of the equine industry. This summer, I made strides in combining my passions and bridging the divide between two potential career focuses in my role as ... -
The Galois Group of 8-Torsion Points on Elliptic Curves
(2017-07-05)In this paper, we explore the Galois group of 8-torsion points on elliptic curves over Q. In particular, we present algorithms that allow us to find the subgroup of GL2(Z/8Z) that best represents the 8-torsion group of a ... -

(2011-02-16)Lymphatic filaraisis, a disease caused by the parasitic nematode Brugia malayi and transmitted by mosquitoes, infects approximately 130 million people in eighty-three countries in the tropical/sub-tropical belt. B. malayi ... -
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 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 ... -
