Technical report TR96-02. Video modeling has become a topic of increasing interest in the area of multimedia research. One of the key aspects in the video medium is the temporal relationship between video frames. In this report1 we propose a tree based model for specifying spatial and temporal...

Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common genetic cause of Intellectual Disability, affecting 1 in 4000 boys and 1 in 6000 girls. Work in our lab using Drosophila melanogaster and since replicated in the mouse model has shown that excess protein synthesis is a major mechanism connecting the...

The roles of vestigial and scalloped in the embryonic muscle development of Drosophila melanogaster
DownloadFall 2010
Vertebrate development requires the activity of multiple members of the myocyte enhancer factor 2 (mef2) gene family for muscle cell specification and subsequent differentiation. Additionally, it is thought that several muscle-specific functions of MEF2 family proteins require binding additional...

The Study of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Genes Using Drosophila Homologues: Behavioural Insights
DownloadFall 2014
Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) denotes a heterogeneous group of heritable neurodegenerative disorders predominantly characterized by progressive weakness and spasticity of the legs. Mutations in the gene SPAST are by far the most common, while mutations in the gene ATL1 are the second most...

The innate immune system is an evolutionarily conserved first line of defense against invasive microbes. Studies in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, revolutionized the field of immunology and cemented Drosophila as a premier model of innate immune defenses. The Drosophila immune deficiency...

Regulation of digestive tract and progenitor cell homeostasis by intestinal bacteria in Drosophila melanogaster
DownloadFall 2020
The digestive tract facilitates nutrient uptake in the presence of a heterogenous cohort of symbiotic microbes. These microbes along with their collective genetic material form the intestinal microbiome and contribute to animal phenotypes. Similar to mammals, the microbiome of insects forms a...
