    systems. Much of my past research has focused on interactions between herbivores and algae in marine systems. This has included studies of geographical gradients of herbivorous fish diversity and how temperature effects on physiology may play a role in driving this pattern and the effects of fisheries and disease on sea urchins and kelp forest ecology. My current research projects include studies of the community ecology of rocky shores of Puget Sound, disease ecology of sea urchins, and larval

    bullet hell action, our game caters to players who find the average deck builder too slow. Developed in Unity and coded in C#, our project utilizes the Unity ECS framework to maximize the number of simultaneous projectile and player interactions. “Genre-busting” is when an artist or author combines established styles into a unique and revolutionary experience for consumers. In “Genre Busters”, players construct decks with up to two different “genres”, allowing them to find unique and expressive ways

  • Pacific Lutheran University Assistant Professor of Biology Lathiena Nervo was recently named one of Cell Mentor’s “1,000 inspiring Black scientists in America.” A developmental biologist in her second year at PLU, Nervo is equally passionate about teaching, biological research, and increasing diverse representation in science.…

    well.What are you most interested in as a biologist? I am a developmental biologist. The thing I love about developmental biology is that you’re a jack of all trades. It’s a mix of molecular, genetics, cell biologies, anatomy and physiology. It’s all these different biology disciplines merged into one. A few decades ago it would have been called embryology. I’m really interested in cell interactions and how cells actually communicate with each other while an embryo is developing. And so, how do they

The list of legends includes world-renowned authors, calypso artists, Carnival designers and more. Shelondra Harris ’17 said it’s amazing to be a part of such a spectacular event and have the opportunity to meet local celebrities and leaders. “It’s really cool that the program allows us to have these interactions,” she said during her time in Trinidad. “Everyone you meet, whether

  • The Spanish word, Duende (du-end-ay), has come to refer to the mysterious power that art has to deeply move a person. Soon-to-be graduates in the Department of Art and Design chose this word to rally around for their senior exhibition in the University Gallery, opening…

    Picasso, Frida Kahlo, and Colin Chillag. Picasso and Chillag’s work leads me to question how to effectively in create a painting with missing information, while still making it look finished. I am particularly interested in their use of negative space and redrawing with charcoal. As for Frida Kahlo, her work exploring direct interactions with herself and past experiences, such as The Two Fridas, offers inspiration as to how I can portray my grandmother experiencing her memories, while simultaneously

    autobiography by Laila Karrouch, portrays language as a means to create a coexistence of cultures. Using a sociolinguistic lens, in combination with the sub-field of raciolinguistics, I analyze the texts’ interactions with language acquisition to emphasize the importance of social integration in this process. Ultimately, I explore the significance of language’s role in facilitating transcultural connections in an increasingly multicultural society. 5:15-5:30pm: Q&A

    interactions with major scholars, the Kurt Mayer fellowship research and the Lemkin Essay Contest – by the end of my PLU career I estimate, conservatively, that I had spent 1000 hours reading, writing, and talking about Holocaust topics. That kind of effort was only possible because it was appreciated and funded by amazing people like the Powell, Heller, and Mayer families. That kind of effort was only possible because I had the teachers (and the librarians!) and the support to make it happen. Laura Brade
