  • to its citizens. About 30 percent of the population does not have access to clean water, and 63 percent does not have access to adequate sanitation. It’s a country where Coca-Cola is cheaper than clean water or milk. All these facts come home when the students arrive at El Limonal, home to about 1,400 people and wedged between a garbage dump, cemetery and sewage plant in northwest Nicaragua outside Chinandega. This patchwork of tarps, mango trees, steel corrugated roofs and slate-colored cinder

  • symptoms associated with MetS. In the past few decades, more attention has been drawn to adipose tissue and its secretion of protein hormones known as adipokines, like adiponectin, to understand their effects on MetS. Overall, adiponectin increases fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake as well as decreases inflammation and oxidative stress in both the liver and skeletal muscle. Incidentally, serum adiponectin increases when a vegan, plant-based protein diet is adopted. The development of knowledge

  • how it affects the people who grow, harvest, purchase and eat it. That helps plant the seed for a commitment to caring for the earth, Perez said. PLU alumna Nicole Laumb is already hard at work planting that seed. The 2011 graduate said her first experience growing food herself wasn’t until her mid-20s, just a few years ago. Laumb worked for a school garden program in Fort Bragg, California, while working with AmeriCorps. “Up until that point, I had purchased every head of lettuce I’d ever eaten

  • rearranged chloroplast genomes with respect to other plant families. Previous comparative analyses of Campanulaceae plastomes have shown that significant rearrangement events occur not only deep within the phylogeny, but also between closely related genera. We report the completed plastome of Asyneuma virgatum, which we compare to the previously published chloroplast genome of its sister taxa, Trachelium caeruleum. Using the Nicotiana plastome as a reference, we observe interesting genome rearrangements

  • priority enhancements to academic facilities and equipment, and we have continued to perform critical physical plant maintenance. ●      In spite of a difficult economic environment, our fund-raising successes continued. There were more than 10,000 donors to the university last year, that’s more than any time in our history. Progress on our $100 million “Engage the World” campaign was slow in the early months of last year, but a flurry of major gifts over the past six months moved the campaign past the

  • to learn outside the classroom. Her students worked with the Clark Fork Coalition to analyze stream quality of the Clark Fork River, plant vegetation along the banks of tributaries and help discover new bacteriophages. Her students didn’t just learn science, they became scientists, and learned the importance of community advocacy in their own backyard. She is a co-founder and moderator of #MTedchat on Twitter, helping Montana educators connect, share and challenge each other’s teaching. She also

  • children understand where food comes from and how it affects the people who grow, harvest, purchase and eat it. That helps plant the seed for a commitment to caring for the earth, Perez said.
