Foundation and other funding sources support the project. “Although millet is a culturally and nutritionally important food in Asia and Africa, it’s not commonly grown in western agriculture, so there’s not a lot of research,” Laurie-Berry says. A similar process of genetic experimentation refined rice production around 50 years ago. “After we figure out which genes control yield, the center will cross-breed those traits into disease-resistant varieties adapted for growth in India or Africa,” she says

can’t believe I’m actually here,” Hobson said. “I really expected to be busting my butt for a few years.” Hobson plays the doctor in “Next to Normal,” the critically acclaimed musical about a family whose mother is suffering from bi-polar disease. It garnered three Tony Awards last June, and is generally considered to be the best new musical to hit Broadway in a while. On Monday, April 12, the play won the Pulitzer Prize for drama. And Hobson is right in the middle of it. He admits he took a huge

other potentially infectious materials. “Bloodborne pathogens”, “BBP” means pathogenic microorganisms that are present in human blood and can cause disease in humans. These pathogens include, but are not limited to, hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). “Clinical laboratory” means a workplace where diagnostic or other screening procedures are performed on blood or other potentially infectious materials. “Contaminated,” means the presence or the reasonably anticipated

shootings. But that’s just one part of America’s gun violence epidemic. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that in 2013 alone, 33,636 people died in firearm deaths, or 92 people every day. Most gun deaths in the United States are suicides, and most non-suicide deaths are homicides. And while it’s true that homicide rates have reached historic lows, no other developed country in the world has the same rate of gun violence as America. President Barack Obama decried the deadliest mass

yield, the center will cross-breed those traits into disease-resistant varieties adapted for growth in India or Africa,” she says. The research exemplifies how the PLU sciences strive to offer novel research opportunities to any biology minor or major. Laurie-Berry says that summer research programs often present students with the only chance to do hands-on, original research—which means participants need 10 summer weeks free to be in the lab. This isn’t easy for those with summer jobs or other

choose to make a difference because of it, he said. “Victimhood is a disease you can slip into, “he said. “Use the crises in your life, big and small, to begin training to become resilient. “Whether it’s before or after, transitions are quite formative,” White said. “When you ask people about the before and after moment, if it’s an international student crowd, quite a few will raise their hand. If it’s more of a preppy town, less hands will be raised. But your time will come.” Read Previous How Green

impact that the pandemic is having in many parts of Native North America by considering the significance of this present moment in light of a centuries-long history of colonialism, epidemic disease, and contemporary efforts to reclaim tribal sovereignty and control over healthcare. What do you think the alumni panel will add to the experience? There are three things the panel will add to the experience. First, like the academic expertise of my faculty colleagues, we look forward to the insights that
