theorem was Fermat’s Little Theorem, and the one that followed was Euler’s Theorem. Fermat’s Little theorem stated that, if a∈Z and p is a prime not dividing a, then p divides a^(p-1)-1, that is a^(p-1)≡1 (mod p). Euler’s theorem attempted to find the smallest exponent for which Fermat’s little theorem was always true. Like many old mathematical theorems that we still use today due to their perpetual relevance, these theorems helped formed the basis for modern day RSA Public-Key cryptography

I am excited about a career in culturally sensitive, community-based health initiatives. I love the idea of combining how the history of unique populations intertwines with modern approaches to providing the safest, most effective healthcare.” Halvorson: “I’ve really enjoyed working with you two. As administrator of the Benson fellowship program, I get to see

distinct historical and cultural norms. Similarly, the professors who teach the IHON classes also bring diversity in their disciplines – Randhawa’s two first-year IHON classes, for instance, were taught by experts in historical theology and French Literature. Randhawa loved them both. Others see it that way, too. And the benefit isn’t just in the classroom. “I like having friends who have completely different views and completely different visions of where their life is going to go,” said Nellie Moran

concentration of DNA with acceptable purity but failed to produce true amplification in the qRT-PCR assay until after being ‘cleaned’ with Bioline Sureclean ® DNA Purification kit. Based on the literature, it is probable an inhibitory contaminate originating either with the anticoagulant used at harvest or other innate whole blood polysaccharides caused inhibition of the enzymes used in qRT-PCR amplification. This suggests special attention also needs to be focused on pre-assay protocols to identify

Empirical Analysis of Acceleration Structures for Ray Tracing Spenser Currier (BS), Adam Rhoades (BS) Realistic rendering can take minutes, hours, or even days depending on the complexity of the scene. To meet modern demand in movies, video games, and commercials, acceleration structures for ray tracing have been designed to efficiently reduce the number of ray-triangle intersection checks necessary when traversing a scene using spatial subdivision. In this research project, we implemented acceleration
