The rhetoric of climate change: Using Latour to compose a nonmodern approach to our modern climate crisis
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-23)Climate change is the greatest threat facing humanity in the 21st century. Scientists from a variety of specialized fields, from biology and chemistry, to climatology and geology, are currently conducting research to ... -
The Rise of the Populist Radical Right in Europe: Party Strategies of Vote Maximization when out of Government
(East Carolina University, 2015-12-10)Populist radical right parties (PRRPs), like all parties, desire to be successful. Success may look different across time and depends upon the goals of the party and what it is they are trying to achieve. Luther points to ... -
The Role of Differential Sensitivity to Retinoic Acid (RA) in Regulating Spermatogonial Fate
(East Carolina University, 2018-12-10)In the mammalian testis, the foundation of spermatogenesis is provided by spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs); their progeny either remain as stem cells (following a self-renewal division) or proliferate as undifferentiated ... -
THE ROLE OF DROSOPHILA NUCLEAR RECEPTOR FTZ-F1 IN SOMATIC CELLS IS NECCESSARY FOR GERMLINE STEM CELL MAINTENANCE
(East Carolina University, 2022-04-29)The production of gametes is a controlled synergistic relationship between germ cells and somatic cells. In Drosophila oogenesis, the NR5A subfamily nuclear receptor ftz-f1 is expressed in the germline stem cells, germ ... -
The Role of Fatty Acid Binding Protein as a Link Between Metabolic Switching and Immune Response in the Macrophage
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-03)Over the last years, there has been unprecedented growth of metabolically-related diseases yet the underlying cellular mechanisms by which each arise is still widely unknown. Recent evidence supports a strong link between ... -
THE ROLE OF HNRNPS ON THE ESTABLISHMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF GERMLINE STEM CELLS IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER
(East Carolina University, 2018-05-03)An organism’s ability to grow and regulate tissue repair relies on the stimulation of stem cells in response to changes in physiological state, such as cell damage, sexual maturation and growth. Tissue-resident stem cells ... -
The Role of Hope with School Aged Children
(East Carolina University, 2016-12-15)Hope has been defined as "the sum of perceived capabilities to produce routes to desired goals, along with the perceived motivation to use those routes" (Snyder, 2000 p. 8). Hope has the potential to influence several ... -
The role of mRNA translation mechanisms in germ cell and embryonic development in C. elegans
(East Carolina University, 2023-05-03)Reproductive cells and embryos use mRNA regulation as a primary means of gene expression. mRNA translational mechanisms rely on the eIF4 translation factors. These include eIF4E, which binds mRNA 7-methylguanosine caps, ... -
The Role of N-Linked Glycosylation on Human Fibrinogen: A Structure-Function Analysis Utilizing Affinity and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography
(East Carolina University, 2023-05-05)Fibrinogen (Fgn) is a soluble, 3-chain homodimeric glycoprotein found in blood plasma that is involved in forming blood clots. It is the precursor to fibrin, an insoluble protein that forms the structural scaffold of blood ...
