Additionally, rates of settlement were lowest at the mouth of the bay suggesting there may be little dispersal of organisms out of the bay. Jacob J. D. Egge, Ph.D., Erinn M. Kuest and Dakota M.

  • know or understand before. My story is not unique. The dynamic evolution of globalization has made this journey increasingly common among both students and working professionals, all the while becoming an essential component to the functioning of the world’s economies.

  • perform directed evolution on these enzymes and yield mutant strains of the enzymes capable of faster botryococcene production requires a selective screen. A previously developed tetrazole compound is able to photoclick onto terminal alkenes and produce a fluorescent adduct. This tetrazole compound was used to develop a selective screen by exposing E. coli hosts to the compound and exposing the cells to UV light to induce the photoclick reaction of the tetrazole compound binding to the terminal alkene

  • potentially huge impact. “She is on the ground floor of a relatively new field that has the possibility of making all kinds of great insights into cancer in the evolution of history,” Ryan said. As Hunt and other researchers unearth more and more ancient evidence—breast cancer in 3500 B.C. Egypt, osteo-sarcoma in a T. rex femur—Hunt has formed an intriguing theory: She believes cancer is inherent in human beings and is aggravated by—rather than caused by—environmental factors. Her goal now is to gather
