to rest.” Higgins, a biology major and environmental studies minor, said she decided to participate in the internship to gain research experience. She loved being with the whales every day and hopes to work with animals in the future. “I enjoy learning about animals and marine life, specifically,” she said. “I also like learning about the environment and how pollution affects ecosystems.” Haglund, also a biology major, applied for the internship because it focused on environmental biology.

supervisor.  This could include damage, poor fit, or any other issue that could affect the function and inhibit the protection the PPE is intended to provide. Attire contaminated with blood or OPIM must be removed immediately and placed carefully into a biohazard bag. They should not be rinsed or handled any more than necessary to contain the infectious material.  If autoclaving is appropriate for decontamination of these materials, transport to the Department of Biology and consult with the Biology Lab

subjects. Winning the grant was a team effort of PLU’s Division of Natural Sciences faculty, including Tina Saxowsky, principal investigator and associate professor of chemistry, along with Dean of Natural Sciences and biology Professor Ann Auman and faculty members Shannon Seidel, assistant professor of biology, and Amy Siegesmund, associate professor of biology. “We are very excited about the ability to implement the work outlined in our proposal,” Auman said. “Not only will this funding allow us to

Dave Song Research GroupResearch in the Song lab centers on understanding the fundamental mechanisms of energy conversion in chemistry and biology. Our primary focus revolves around the transfer of both the proton and electron in biological catalysis via a ubiquitous mechanism called proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), underpinning key metabolic processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and nucleotide reduction. The mechanistic complexities associated with the inherently dual particle
