  • Gender and Heteronormativity Faculty Mentors: Heidi McLaughlin, and Corey Cook; Psychology Our research found that participants who identified as non-heterosexual and/or female are more likely to break out of traditional gendered friendship norms and seek similar interactions within platonic and romantic relationships. This is consistent with previous research that found non-heterosexual women have more fulfilling platonic relationships than most men. Chantelle Davenport; Susan Lopez; Mollie

  • success rate increases to 92% (55/60). The results are believed to be due to interference of the homomeric forces present in amides which prevent the formation of heteromeric co-crystals until the reaction is saturated with co-former. We then synthesized and studied host-guest interactions between halogen bond donors and a benzyl-(1,2,4-triazole) functionalized macrocycle compound, c-hexyltetra(4-benzyl-(1,2,4-triazole))cavitand. Results showed a 4:1 guest:host ratio using UV-vis titration techniques

  • Regent’s Park College, and in Montevideo, Uruguay, where I pursued language training in Spanish.” Matt: “As Marc said, the availability of professors at PLU is awesome, and you can really get to know them. Right off the bat they’re willing to engage you when you find a topic or question that interests you. For me these interactions led to conversations about travel and research, and I have now completed two research fellowships at PLU. I have also visited Italy two times. For a kid from a small town in

  • was exacerbated in cell lines that also lacked OGG1, an enzyme responsible for base excision repair (BER) of the oxidative lesion 8-oxoguanine (dst1Δ ogg1Δ: 1.15 x 10-6; ogg1Δ: 5.34 x 10-7), indicating interactions between transcription and unrepaired DNA damage. These results have implications on the involvement of transcription in adaptive mutagenesis, a relationship worth further exploration. 3:10-3:20 - Break3:20 pm - Developing Methodology for the Screening of ssDNA Aptamers Against Human

  • Conference for Holocaust Education and asked whether members of his family might be willing to meet with the J-Term travelers before they left. When Joe’s sister, Natalie, a current student at PLU, heard of the program, she said, “We’ll go with you!” “Suddenly we had the potential for a whole different encounter—for Kurt Mayer’s family to see students engaging with his life and the Holocaust and what he wrote, and for the students to learn more about Kurt through their interactions with his devoted

  • . While we are in Nicaragua for one week, we are part of a system (Living Water groups) and we will respect the potentially complex interactions that may precede us or arise after we leave.IS LIVING WATER A FAITH BASED ORGANIZATION?Yes, it is. In many ways, it is like PLU. When you go to a PLU event, such as convocation or commencement, the event often starts with a prayer and blessing, and also ends with that as well. It will be that way in Nicaragua as well with the Living Water staff. When PLU was

  • student expectations based on childhood experience she can scarcely even imagine. Applied Feminist Pedagogy Applying feminist pedagogy to the foreign language classroom means asking how our theory and practice connect. The aims of feminist pedagogy are, first, to empower students to direct their own learning; second, to reduce hierarchical differences in student-teacher interactions; and third, to expose the biases and objectives of educational agendas. In the foreign language classroom, despite the

  • Earth Science and Environmental Studies are focused on the study of human interactions with the earth and its environments. 253.535.7744 www.plu.edu/earth-science/ lechlear@plu.edu Alex Lechler, Ph.D., Chair The major and minor in Earth Science focus on the scientific study of the processes that shape the earth. The program offers courses that explore earth materials and what they can tell us about past climates, tectonic activity, and mountain building. We also study natural hazards and other

  • and began screening the ssDNA aptamer library against the entire HSQS enzyme and alpha-J alpha-K loop region. Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment (SELEX) is the process we used to select for aptamers that bind to our target proteins. Upon completion of two SELEX rounds, our results indicate successful aptamer binding to HSQS and the flexible region. 2:55 pm - Investigating Interactions between CdSe Nanospheres and Triethylammonium Dimethyldithiocarbamate (TEADMPTC).
