Development and Application of Minimum Energy Crossing Point Software Suite for Organometallic Reactions Justin Snyder snyder.justind@gmail.com jdsnyder Prof. Daniel H. Ess Chemistry Introduction Computational studies are critical to the field of organometallic chemistry since many highly reactive and unstable compounds cannot be isolated or observed experimentally. It is well-known that many organometallic reaction mechanisms involve […]

Development of a Directed Forward Genetic Screen Using CRISPR Libraries
Russell, Robert C Development of a Directed Forward Genetic Screen Using CRISPR Libraries Jonathon Hill, Physiology and Developmental Biology Introduction Thousands of genes control the development of our bodies. These genes must be activated at the proper place and time in order for development to proceed correctly. The technique that we are developing will improve […]
Development of a model for adult T cell leukemia in HTLV-1 infected humanized mice
Smith, Matthew Development of a model for adult T cell leukemia in HTLV-1 infected humanized mice Faculty Mentor: Dr. Brad Berges, Department of Microbiology and Molecular Biology Introduction Millions of people in the world are infected with human T-lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1). As the name states, this virus attacks the T cells of the infected […]
Development of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells to Target Cancer
Crandall, Justin Development of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cells to Target Development of Cancer Faculty Mentor: Dr. Scott Weber, Department of Microbiology and Molecular Biology Introduction Cancer negatively affects the lives of millions of individuals, and remains a difficult ailment to treat. In 2014, approximately 585,720 deaths and 1,665,540 new cases of cancer were reported […]
Development of an Animal Model in Which to Study HIV-2
Rasmussen, Taalin Development of an Animal Model in Which to Study HIV-2 Faculty Mentor: Berges, Bradford Microbiology and Molecular Biology Introduction Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) attacks and destroys the cells of the immune system necessary to mounting an effective immune response to successfully fight off infection. Unchecked, an HIV infection leads to a gradual deterioration […]
Development of a Flow Duration Curve to Determine Hydropower Feasibility
Susan Estep with Elise Estep and Dr. Jim Nelson, Civil and Environmental Engineering The purpose of this project was to derive Flow Duration Curves (FDCs) by three separate methods in order to compare the accuracy of these methods. The FDCs would be used to estimate the amount of water that would be consistently available for […]
Development and Application of Quassiclassical Direct Dynamics Program for Organic and Organometallic Reactions
Nathan Wohlgemuth and Dan Ess, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Introduction Organic and organometallic reactions are generally assumed to follow statistical mechanical models of reactivity and selectivity that correspond to transition state theory. However, in recent years there have been several organic reactions that have been shown to be controlled by post-transition state reaction dynamics. […]
Identifying Genetic Factors in the Development of Diabetes in the Wasatch Front Population 2013-2014
Julianne H. Grose Evaluation of academic objectives The academic objectives of this MEG were to train undergraduate and graduate students on the scientific process while providing valuable insight into the genetic factors that may play a role in the development of diabetes in the Wasatch front population. We were able to meet these objectives as […]
Examining the Relative Contributions of Genes, Diet, and the Gut Microbiome to the Development of Obesity and Diabetes
PI: Laura C. Bridgewater This project began as a collaboration with Dr. Julianne Grose in MMBIO to study the effect of PAS kinase on diabetes and obesity in a mouse model system. Due to our initial findings, the study has grown to include Dr. Ben Bickman in PDBIO (an expert in metabolism) and Dr. Scott […]
