she never considered before. She asked herself an essential question: How do normal people apply social justice to their everyday lives and jobs? She had prepared thoroughly to become a medical doctor. Even though her passion wasn’t gone, something was changing. Thiele participated in a summer undergraduate research project with Mary Ellard-Ivey, associate professor of biology. They worked to create better plant development in third-world countries. She never thought about working with plants, but

studying organic chemistry in many universities. Fryhle is just finishing up the 11th edition of the book with his coauthor, T.W. Graham Solomons. The most recent edition in print has a picture of a magnolia plant on it, which is the source of a number of interesting organic compounds, such as several that are found to regulate stress responses. As for the next edition? That hasn’t been decided yet. Each of the book’s covers, which Fryhle has been coauthoring since 1998, has a connection to organic

-state tuition. 2. What inspired you to study biology? I was inspired to pursue biology because I’ve always liked learning about cells, the body, and the environment. I believed this major would expose me to a good variety of classes in both chemistry and biology. I want to apply to medical school, so I knew that picking this major and those supporting classes would help me prepare for the MCAT. My favorite (and most challenging) biology course I have taken is mammalian physiology with Dr. Dolan. I

creatures produce and release, the timing of these activities, and the underlying reasons driving such behavior. It is similar to solving a complex puzzle that promises deeper insights into the enigmas of our oceans. Flaspohler and Fisher collected water samples to identify the array of compounds present and their fluctuations over time. They also undertook hands-on experiments cultivating phytoplankton – microscopic plant-like organisms – within the lab. Their mission was twofold: they grew and

, citing Chavez. “But as human beings, we have failed to take care of all creatures, and as Christians, we know we can do better than we’ve been doing,” in this regard. Rose McKenney, associate professor of geosciences, noted in her presentation that as the population grows, there is very little water to fight about. Of all the Earth’s water, only a small fraction – 2.5 percent – is fresh, and of that, only about .3 percent is available for human, plant and animal needs. The key questions facing humans

the manager, Fernando Duran, who is passionate about making the farm healthy for flowers and workers. He told me the farm uses a quarter of the pesticides it used 20 years ago. In an effort to eliminate pesticides, Duran said, a researcher at LatinFlor found a natural biological control for a stubborn pest, the leaf miner. The scientist found the wasp is a natural enemy of the insect, attacking its larvae. He then developed a vacuum that is used to suck the dead insects off every plant. “I’m happy
