Socioeconomic status and the brain: A fuzzy-trace theory approach to address concussion underreporting
(2019-05)A growing body of evidence suggests that concussions in both adolescents and young adults are often overlooked, underreported, and inadequately treated. Failing to report symptoms associated with a concussion frequently ... -
The chemical and biological investigation of plants that target the human estrogen receptor: Trigonella foenum-graecum (fenugreek)
(2015-05)The occurrence of chemicals of natural origin that possess the capacity to mimic the hormonal properties of estrogen has been previously reported in the biomedical literature. From these reports, it is apparent that the ... -
The Role of the Ventral Hippocampus and Anterior Olfactory Nucleus in Contextually Cued Odor Discrimination
(2017-05)The hippocampus has been shown to play a crucial part in context encoding in rodents. However, the mechanisms by which the hippocampus affects contextually cued behavior have yet to be fully elucidated. In this study, I ... -
The use of reverse line-blot hybridization for the detection of Trichostrongylid nematodes in small ruminants
(2018-05)Helminth infections are among the top causes of economic loss in the upkeep of small ruminants, and with anthelmintic resistance on the rise, it is vital that rapid and versatile diagnostic tests be developed to better ... -
Understanding the mechanism of cargo recognition by the Ssh4-Rsp5 ubiquitin ligase complex at the yeast vacuole membrane
(2019-05)The preservation of a healthy proteome is important for all cellular function. Sequential protein quality control (QC) mechanisms along the endocytic pathway safeguard the identity of different organelles by eliminating ... -
Variation in the uptake of thiamethoxam, a neonicotinoid pesticide, in the NAM Founder inbreds of maize
(2019-05)Neonicotinoid pesticides have recently come under fire for their negative impacts on pollinators. However, seed treatments of neonicotinoid compounds such as imidacloprid are regularly applied to over 79% of maize grown ... -
