Unique cellular interactions between the obligate intracellular bacteria Wolbachia pipientis and its insect host
DownloadFall 2011
Wolbachia are maternally inherited obligate intracellular bacteria found in arthropods, where they induce feminization, male-killing, parthenogenesis, and cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI). CI is conditional male sterility, in which Wolbachia-infected males successfully mate with infected females,...

Identification of CECR2-containing chromatin-remodeling complexes and their Chromatin-binding sites in mice
DownloadSpring 2017
Eukaryotic nuclear DNA is packaged into chromatin, a complex nucleoprotein structure. This has functional consequences by controlling the accessibility of DNA to binding factors responsible for many important cellular processes such as transcription, DNA replication and DNA repair. ATP-dependent...

Fall 2020
The first part of this thesis presents an exposition of some of the links between integrability, matrix models and Airy structures. We first introduce the notion of an integrable hierarchy and a tau function. We then probe tau functions further by considering matrix integrals. These are...

Spring 2015
Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) enter a period of intensified feeding in the spring, which allows for the accumulation of energy stores critical to surviving the open water season. Study on polar bear predation has been limited by sample size and spatial extent, and hypotheses on the demographic...

Predator and Prey, Past, Present, and Projected: Modelling Polar Bears and Ringed Seals in a Dynamic Arctic
DownloadFall 2019
Climate change is causing the Arctic to warm faster than anywhere else on earth. The projected effects of a warmer Arctic include changes in population dynamics and distributions, biodiversity, food web structure, and ecosystem services. Our ability to successfully monitor ecological changes and...
