Numerous obstacles contribute to the underrepresentation of racial, ethnic, and gender groups in science and technology fields. However, addressing these barriers is complex and multifactorial. As part of their exploration of...
Odds ratios are one of the methods in statistics to quantify how strongly the presence or absence of a property correlates with the presence or absence of another property in a given population. In the biomedical sciences they...
This project created the first website capable of searching published biomedical knowledge and returning a rank ordered list of actions most effective at improving health. These actions have font scaled based on the odds ratios...
Librarianship is becoming more complex with a broader range of services to support with little or no new people to take on these additional roles. The group of libraries in the Private Academic Library Network of Indiana...
In this poster, I will show how German students at Marian have engaged with members of the local German community and how this has impacted their learning. and Presented in the Global Learning track.
Case study teaching is a powerful to introduce students not only to teach concepts and content, but also critical thinking and problem solving skills. Cases bring content to life using examples and approaches that can interest...
Osteoporosis, a disease of low bone mass, places individuals at enhanced risk for fracture, disability, and death. In the USA, hospitalizations for osteoporotic fractures exceed those for heart attack, stroke, and breast cancer...

Note: supplemental powerpoint slides available below. and OBJECTIVES: Arch branching has never been shown to influence recoarctation after extended end-to-end anastomosis via thoracotomy, yet in each study bovine arch...
Objectives: Arch branching has never been shown to influence recoarctation after extended end-to-end anastomosis via thoracotomy, yet in each study bovine arch identification is grossly underreported. This study aims to: 1)...
Bovine aortic arch is an anatomical variant in which the innominate and left common carotid arteries share a common origin. It is generally considered to be benign. The current literature estimates its prevalence may be as high...
Persisters are a special group of quiescent and phenotypically unique cells in a given microbial population that survive antimicrobial insults or stresses but retain properties of the original population. Persisters have been...
Candida albicans and Gardnerella vaginalis are two common infectious organisms of the female urogenital tract. Single agent boric acid (BA) topical preparations have been a treatment for resistant gynecologic Candida and...
Osteocyte (Ot)-derived Sclerostin (Scl), encoded by the SOST gene, regulates bone homeostasis by acting on osteoblasts, inhibiting bone formation and stimulating bone resorption. Emerging evidence suggest that Scl has...
Osteocyte (Ot)-derived Sclerostin (Scl) has local actions in bone mediated by Lrp 4/5/6 receptors, inhibiting bone formation and stimulating bone resorption by antagonizing Wnt signaling. Emerging evidence suggests that Scl...
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) constitute the largest subdivision of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-? family of ligands and exert most of their effects through the canonical effectors Smad1, 5, and 8. Appropriate...

Initiation of BMP signaling is dependent upon activation of Type I BMP receptor by constitutively active Type II BMP receptor. Three Type II BMP receptors have been identified; Acvr2a and Acvr2b serve as receptors for BMPs and...
Enhancing bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling increases bone formation in a variety of settings that target bone repair. However, the role of BMP in the maintenance of adult bone mass is not well understood. Targeted...
