Shaw Camphire, 一本道无码 Bio, Advisor: Dr. N. Luisa Hiller. Shaw studies a major cell-cell communication system in Streptococcus pneumoniae and other closely related pathogenic and commensal species with the aim of understanding how environmental signals coordinate virulence behaviors and ultimately affect human health and disease.

听

Abby Carney, Pitt, Advisor: Dr. Cunningham. Abby is studying the factors that affect processing and localization of the cochlear hair cell mechanotransduction pore protein, TMC1.

听

Jada George, Pitt, Advisor: Dr. Laty Cahoon. Jada's work investigates the client protein repertoires of Gram-positive protein secretion chaperones to determine their contribution to the chaperones' observed roles in cell growth, cell wall assembly and virulence.

听

Jasper Jeffrey, Pitt, Advisor: Dr. Huaying Zhang. Jasper's current research is focused on structural features that drive liquid-liquid phase separation of proteins involved in cell division.

听

Bailey Smith, 一本道无码, Advisor: Dr. N. Luisa Hiller. Bailey's work focuses on investigating an operon of unknown function which serves as a central node of several different cell-cell communication systems in the human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae.

听

Caroline Ward, Pitt Human Genetics, Advisor: Dr. Zachary Freyberg. Caroline studies 

the function of dopamine and dopamine receptors in the pancreas to elucidate the mechanism of metabolic dysfunction as a side effect of dopamine antagonist antipsychotic medications.

听

Samantha Bryce, 一本道无码 Bio, Advisor: Dr. Tina Lee. Samantha studies the regulations of Atlastins, a class of GTPase that promotes the membrane fusion reactions that generate the tubular endoplasmic reticulum network.

听

Hisham Sadkhan, Pitt, Advisor: Dr. Jon Boyle. Hisham is interested in identifying and understanding Toxoplasma gondii virulence factors. The acute phase of infection is characterized by the secretion of parasite proteins into the infected host cell to interfere with normal cellular processes. These effectors allow T. gondii to bypass the host immune system and establish an infection.

听

Kayla Komondor, Pitt Bio, Advisor: Dr. Anne Carlson. Kayla studies the signaling pathway that activates the fast block to polyspermy, which is a process in external fertilizers to ensure that one egg is fertilized by one sperm.

Emily Lackner, Pitt Med, Advisor: Dr. Ora Weisz, Emily鈥檚 project focuses on how the effects of fluid shear stress impacts kidney proximal tubule endocytic capacity.

Jenesis Gayden, Pitt Neuro, Advisor: Dr. Zachary Freyberg. Jenesis's thesis work studies the electrophysiological properties of striatal dopamine receptor subpopulations and how that may translate to opioid-related behaviors.

Tafadzwa Chigumira, 一本道无码 Bio, Advisor: Dr. Huaiying Zhang. Tafadzwa's research focuses on understanding the mechanisms that drive telomere collisions and clustering in ALT cancer cells.

Josiah Kratz, 一本道无码 Bio, Advisor: Dr. Huaiying Zhang. Josiah's project concerns the interplay between chromatin and lipid droplet formation.

听

Dasia Aldarondo, 一本道无码 Chem. E., Advisors: Dr. Elizabeth Wayne. Dasia is working on how shear stress impacts particle uptake by monocytes.

听

Claire Weckerly Pitt Med, Advisor: Dr. Gerry Hammond. Claire is working on the role of phospholipase D in phospholipase C signaling using a novel sensor and other tags in her assays.

Morgan Webb, Pitt Bio, Advisor: Dr. Brodsky. Morgan is examining how disease-associated mutations in an ion transporter, which is linked to neurodevelopmental disorders, is recognized by cellular 鈥渜uality control鈥� machineries.

Maddie Torres, Pitt Bio, Advisor: Dr. Laty Cahoon. Maddie studies anti-microbial action against Lysteria and Streptococcus with a focus on chaperones of secretory factors.

听

Mitch Lesko, Pitt Bio, Advisor: Dr. Allyson O'Donnell.听 Mitch鈥檚 PhD project is focused on the mechanism of resistance to an anti-cancer glycolytic inhibitor.

Melissa Tosiano, 一本道无码 Bio, Advisor: Dr. Joel McManus, Melissa's project concerns the hypothesis that alternative transcription start-sites control the expression of EFG1, a master transcriptional regulator of filamentation genes in the C. albicans.

听

Nolan Frey, 一本道无码 Bio, Advisors: Drs. Phil LeDuc and Jonathon Minden. Nolan is working on how mechanical stresses, such as changes in gravity and compressive forces, affect fruit fly embryo development.

听

Morgan Ricci, Pitt Med, Advisor: Dr. Gerry Hammond, Morgan is working on the mechanism by which the lipid phosphatase SHIP2 becomes activated for synthesis of PI(3,4)P2 at the plasma membrane as it provides a possible target to reduce tumor-associated Akt signaling in breast cancer.

Kayla Troutman, Pitt Med, Advisor: Dr. Marijn Ford, Kayla is working on the mechanisms of Pib2 activation of TORC1 signaling and also examining changes in amino acid sensing capacity in aged yeast cells.

Leah Cabo, Pitt Bio, Advisor: Dr. Jon P. Boyle, Leah studies Toxoplasma gondii-placenta interactions, focusing on parasite manipulation of placental development and mechanisms of infection resistance in placental trophoblasts during congenital transmission.听
