Development of the vertebrate central nervous system is a complex process that relies on the accurate spatiotemporal distribution of signaling centers during embryogenesis. These signals provide cells with positional information, which is integrated via transcription factors and gene regulatory...

Retinoic acid prevents alteration of neuronal morphology and locomotion of zebrafish embryos induced by ethanol exposure during gastrulation
DownloadFall 2018
Ethanol (EtOH) exposure during development has been shown to lead to deficits in fine and gross motor control. In this study I used zebrafish embryos in the gastrulation stage to determine the developmental effects of a brief, 5-hour exposure to EtOH. I treated fertilized zebrafish eggs from 5.25...

Calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase 2 (CaMKII) is a multifunctional serine/threonine kinase that is highly abundant in the central nervous system. It plays important roles in many neuronal functions, including neurite extension and maturation, activity-dependent synaptic plasticity and...

Phosphoinositides (PIs) are membrane lipids that function as signaling molecules. PIs undergo phosphorylation and dephosphorylation at various positions to produce the seven known PI molecules. PIKfyve is a phosphoinositide kinase that produces phosphoinositide-3,5- bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P2) and...

THE EXPERIENCE OF CAREGIVERS OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES IN A PROJECT THAT USED SMS AS A TOOL TO IMPROVE INFORMATION ACCESS AND SOCIAL INTERACTION IN AN UNDER-RESOURCED COLOMBIAN COMMUNITY
DownloadFall 2013
The community of El Codito, an under-resourced Bogota community, has a high population density with the majority living under the poverty line. People with disabilities (PWD) and their caregivers in El Codito experience a lack of access to health information and are socially isolated. This...

The Expression of Transmembrane AMPA Receptor Regulatory Proteins (TARPs) in Developing Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
DownloadFall 2013
In embryonic vertebrates, newly-formed synapses are quiet until they are unsilenced through a process that resembles synaptic plasticity but remains mechanistically unclear. I used gene expression to determine if Transmembrane AMPA Receptor Regulatory Proteins (TARPs), AMPA receptor auxiliary...
