After transferring to Pacific Lutheran University, I jumped feet first into working

    TrxR1. Computational modeling with AutoDock Vina was employed to determine the docking affinity potential of a series of fulvene-based small molecule ligands. The structural activity relationships of highly functionalized benzofulvene compounds revealed several ligands with excellent in-silico affinity, a few examples have even produced nanomolar binding affinity. Current work has transitioned into producing a full synthetic library and in-vitro testing. 2:30-3:30 pm - Division of Natural Sciences

    university’s provost that re-scheduling a cancelled visit by the Dalai Lama could disrupt relationships with China, leading the provost to observe that a CI does present opportunities for “subtle pressure and conflict.” Most CIs do limit their scope to language and traditional culture, leaving political and other topics to other university contexts. The CI project is intended to promote a favorable understanding of China, but CIs do not enjoy a monopoly over information available on campuses, and based on

  • Tuesday, May 19th, 2020 Welcome! We, Rose McKenney and Adela Ramos, are excited to share with you the work of the 2020 class of Environmental Studies students.

    . Lastly, I would like to thank Suzanne Nelson for bringing this complex topic to my attention during her class last Fall. This has turned out to be a perfect marrying of my two majors that I would never have had the chance to explore without her.

    United Kingdom, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. The focus of this paper is cross examining each state’s involvement in the EU with its perception of Europe and its own developed national identity. The current political issues of Brexit bring attention to the fact that public opinion plays a big whole in international politics. It is my hope to bring some level of understanding of how exactly these relationships can be measured and predicted. Sydney CaplingerI would like to extend my

    perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), one of the dominant PFAS, using NiFe. PFOA capture and detection leads to direct changes in the Fe(CN)6 3 – /4 – redox couple which is a structural unit of NiFe, and can be monitored directly through cyclic voltammetry. PFOA was detected at 10 ng/L concentrations, well below the EPA health advisory limit. Results here suggest NiFe could be used to detect other PFAS, like perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA) or perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), but further work is necessary to understand
