Undergraduate student Adam Cook presented a poster on revealing novel genes in research on how plants respond to gravity at the annual meeting of the American Society for Gravitational and Space Research Oct. 25 in Pasadena, CA. Co-authors on Microarray Analysis of GPS Treatment Reveals Novel Genes Involved in Gravitropic […]

Undergraduate student Zachary Hall presented a poster on identifying a genetic mutation in the small, mustard-like plant that allows Ohio University researchers to study the gravitational effect on the plant. The research on Identification of the Gene Defective in gravity persistence signal (gps) 6 of Arabidopsis thaliana was co-authored by […]

“Why we care so much about the cancer stem cell is that, as far as we can tell, they are very resistant to traditional radiotherapies and traditional chemotherapies that are used to treat your loved ones should they be diagnosed with cancer,” said Dr. Monica Burdick at her Science Café […]

The 2014-15 Science Café series kicks off with “Stem Cells, Research and Hype. Oh my!” with Dr. Monica Burdick on Wednesday, Sept. 10, at 5 p.m. in the Baker Center Front Room. Burdick is Associate Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering  at Ohio University. Watch on A&S TV. The event will be […]

Dr. Sarah Wyatt waited for it—the simple phrase that would signal one small step for Arabidopsis, one big step for mankind’s knowledge of how plants respond to gravity. “Ready for the science,” said the Kennedy Space Center engineer on July 9. Dr. Darren Luesse handed the engineer a small petri dish […]

Dr. Sarah Wyatt, Professor of Environmental & Plant Biology, presented “Plant gravitropic signal transduction: A network analysis leads to gene discovery” on a panel on Metabolism Related to Gravitropism at the 40th COSPAR Scientific Assembly in Moscow, Russia. She also chaired a panel on Weightlessness and Hypergravity. The Wyatt Lab […]
