  • focus of my time at PLU. The most important memories I’ve made here center on the relationships I’ve built with professors, and the times when I’ve been challenged to dig deeper into the material and to think in completely different ways. The experiences I cherish most are those when I’ve sat in the classroom, listening to a lecture, and that theory I’ve been studying so hard to really understand finally makes sense, all the pieces finally fit together. Professors like Dr. Huelsbeck, Dr. Eric Nelson

  • . In theory, mutating these small amino acids with larger and more bulky residues should introduce more electron density and therefore close up the cavity making them shorter. Upon successful mutation of SSL-1, enzyme activity will be observed by performing in vitro studies. Ideally, these shorter cavities should better accommodate for shorter botryococcene substrates and ultimately improve the efficiency of biofuel production.

  • in theory produce two electron-hole pairs per absorbed photon. Singlet fission (SF) is a spin-allowed process by which a molecule in its excited singlet state shares its energy with a ground state molecule to produce two triplet-excited molecules creating the potential of doubling the photocurrent from high-energy photons in solar cells. A series of perylene‑based compounds capable of intramolecular singlet fission have been developed at NREL and in this work we derivatize the aforementioned

  • communities, health vulnerability for all people and climate catastrophes across the planet. She will also share both Navdanya’s experience and her scientific research on how biodiversity and agroecology create economic and social health and climate resilience. Bio: Dr. Vandana Shiva trained as a Physicist at the University of Punjab, and completed her PhD on the ‘Hidden Variables and Non-locality in Quantum Theory’ from the University of Western Ontario, Canada. She later shifted to inter-disciplinary

  • 100th Anniversary of the partition of Ireland, Partition: What Did It Do For Us? and a programme that has evolved from the Ethical and Shared Remembering Project, Living With Imperial Legacies: Empires, Racism, Slavery and Colonialism. Maureen sees the Junction as presenting an opportunity to bridge the gap between the academic world and the wider community and the gap between theory and practice, across the various disciplines. Central to its role is an accessible, approachable and significant

  • graduated from PLU in 1960, and later earned a Ph.D. in probability theory at Wayne State University in Detroit. Grace Wang also holds a Ph.D. from Wayne State, in chemistry.

  • show up to events around campus like concerts and games! PLU offered the opportunity for me to simultaneously pursue my passion for engineering and my love of music, and I just could not turn down an opportunity like that. My PLU experience: Adventure, growth, friends, Frisbees, The Big Bang Theory, music, and trebuchets. Over my four years I have grown as a student, musician, scientist, human being, and global citizen. I have learned the value and importance of community from my friends and

  • patients in areas facing health care shortages. Tracy Pitt — associate director of advising, admission and student support in the School of Nursing — said that by the end of the 27-month program, each individual has completed more than 1,000 clinical hours. Seavor said the community-based experience graduate students gain increases their confidence and makes for a smoother transition from theory to practice after graduation. “That’s building the lifelong learning process,” Seavor said. “We couldn’t do
