William Cocke and Dr. Rodney Forcade, Mathematics Department Latin squares represent one of the oldest elements of modern algebra, despite being over- shadowed by the structurally superior subclass of nite groups. Every nite group generates a Latin square, an n by n grid wherein n distinct element appear exactly once in each row and column. […]

Structure of the PhLP1-Gβ-CCT Complex Reveals a Molecular Mechanism for Gprotein β Subunit Folding and βγ Dimer Assembly
Devon Blake and Dr. Barry Willardson, Chemistry and Biochemistry Introduction and Project Importance Cells detect and respond to a myriad of extracellular signals via seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors and their associated G protein signaling pathways. The pathway is initiated by the binding of a signaling molecule, such as a hormone or neurotransmitter, to its binding […]
Establishing the Theoretical Relationship between Bayesian Inference and Dynamical Structure Functions for Network Reconstruction
Julius Adebayo and Dr. Sean Warnick, Computer Science A system-level understanding of the functioning behavior of a cell requires an accurate representation of the underlying networks of gene and protein interactions. Network reconstruction is an area of systems biology that attempts to reconstruct the network of regulatory interactions from available measurements using a mathematical framework. […]
Understanding Entrepreneurial Opportunity via Differentiated Bertrand Oligopoly Market Structure
Colton Hicks and Dr. Nile Hatch, Department of Business Management Abstract: In this paper we develop a method to be able to recognize opportunity for a new entrant in a Bertrand Oligopoly market based upon industrial organization. We infer from the demand curves of competitors if opportunity for a new entrant exists and the necessary […]
The Development of Prosodic Structures in the Speech of Young Children Establishing a Control Group
Darrell Matthews and Dr. Shawn Nissen, Communication Disorders Acoustically, the speech characteristics of male and female speakers differ from one another. In adults, this variation is clearly caused by physiological differences between males and females. The size and shape of the vocal tract, as well as the length of the vocal folds have an impact […]
Historical Evolution Of Latin American City Structure: Costa Rican Cities As Test Cases
Vaughn Robert Pickell and Dr. Samuel M. Otterstrom, Geography When the European explorers came to America they brought with them their pattern of city design. Jorge Hardoy (1982) asserts that the Spanish “built cities that in layout, architectural styles, technology, land-use patterns and even in criteria used to select the location of the new settlements” […]
Synthesis Of Bioconjugate Dimers Used To Probe The Structure Of PGlycoprotein
Emily Parker and Dr. Merritt B. Andrus, Chemistry and Biochemistry Chemotherapy is one of the primary treatments for cancer today. A patient’s life may depend on its efficacy, so when he or she develops multi-drug resistance (MDR) the results can be devastating. MDR, a clinical condition manifested by the failure of chemotherapy, is primarily due […]
COMPLEXATION REACTIONS AND STRUCTURE OF THE IRON-MOLYBDENUM COFACTOR OF NITROGENASE
Dean Wheeler, Chemical Engineering Purpose As described in the proposal submitted last year for this project, there is a great need to further understand the dynamics and processes of the nitrogenase system. Using this chemical system a limited number of microorganisms are able to break down atmospheric nitrogen so it may be used by other […]
Modeling Dialogue Structures
Rebecca D Rees and Dr. Deryle Lonsdale, Linguistics Within every human being lies the desire and the power to communicate—both to decide what to say and when to say it, and to unravel the meaning in someone else’s message. And dialogue is our fundamental tool of communication. Even a writer must take into account their […]
Use of Linear Analysis of Microstructures in Defining Performance Closures for Highly Constrained Mechanical Design
Mark Lyon and Dr. Brent L. Adams, Mechanical Engineering Using methods described by Adams1, the design of a compliant beam was modeled in a multidimensional Fourier design space. A compliant beam is one that achieves motion through bending. The motivation for the problem was a bicycle derailleur. A compliant beam could replace the entire rear […]
