Science ProfessionDescription
Thirteen young scientists tell us why they chose to study science. Fun, friendship, creativity and insatiable curiosity are common themes The speakers are graduate students and post-doctoral fellows who participated in courses, during the summer of 2012, at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. They are from universities and institutes throughout the USA and around the world. A version of this talk was first released in iBioMagazine issue 13 Funded and sponsored by the Natinoal Science Foundation (NSF), National Institute of General Medical Sciences, Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), and American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB)

Mercury-pollution induction of intracellular lipid accumulation and lysosomal compartment amplification in the benthic foraminifer Ammonia parkinsoniana
(Public Library of Science, 2016-09-07)Heavy metals such as mercury (Hg) pose a significant health hazard through bioaccumulation and biomagnification. By penetrating cell membranes, heavy metal ions may lead to pathological conditions. Here we examined the ... -
Comparative analysis of secretome profiles of manganese(II)-oxidizing Ascomycete fungi
(Public Library of Science, 2016-07-19)Fungal secretomes contain a wide range of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes, including cellulases, hemicellulases, pectinases, and lignin-degrading accessory enzymes, that synergistically drive litter decomposition in the ... -
Constraining the rate of oceanic deoxygenation leading up to a Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE-2: ~94 Ma)
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2017-08-09)The rates of marine deoxygenation leading to Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Events are poorly recognized and constrained. If increases in primary productivity are the primary driver of these episodes, progressive oxygen loss ...
