Abstract: Cervical Acceleration/Deceleration Syndrome, also known as Whiplash, is a very common cervical spine injury that has annual costs in the United States higher than all cancer and...

The problem dealt with the awareness and response of Wesleyan Ministers in Pangasinan to climate change in order to develop a climate change mitigation and adaptation framework. The respondents of...

Marine organisms commonly produce an abundance of natural products, some of which have been found to have important medicinal, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications. Sarcophyton glaucum is a...

Research on higher education in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is virtually absent (Zavale & Schneijderberg, 2020). Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) programs are being...

Kava is a tranquilizing beverage from the South Pacific Islands that contains lipophilic compounds called kavalactones. Ingestion of these compounds is known to produce sedative and anxiolytic effects...

Huanglongbing disease (HLB), commonly known as citrus greening disease, is a bacterial infection that impacts citrus trees across the United States. Citrus greening is caused by Candidatus...

The ability to structurally engineer viral nanoparticles makes them a useful platform for targeted drug delivery. The procapsid of bacteriophage lambda is one such structure. This hollow icosahedral...

A swarm of the δ-proteobacterium Myxococcus xanthus is a distributed system; a population of superposable automata whose distribution is transparent so that it appears as one machine. These swarms...

In the United States only 40% of students who start a STEM major finish their degree (Olson & Riordan, 2012). One of the obstacles that students face is taking gateway classes such as chemistry...

Macrophages are able to polarize from a basal, naïve state to an M1 or M2 phenotype. M1 pro-inflammatory macrophages are characterized by recognizing and eliminating abnormal cells, while M2 anti...

The human microbiota is a thriving ecosystem that has remained a great mystery, as we have yet to develop a complete understanding of its complex nature and capabilities. Nonetheless, numerous studies...

The purpose of the investigation was to compare the effects of 8 weeks of low-volume high-intensity interval training (HIIT) versus the effects of high-volume moderate-intensity continuous training...

Pierce’s Disease, threatening grapevines in California, and Citrus Greening Disease, plaguing commercial citrus trees in Florida, are caused by bacterial plant pathogens. Xylella fastidiosa and...

Antibiotic resistance among Gram-positive bacteria is a serious global health threat. Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are especially concerning since they are susceptible to few if any...

Hannibal Bank is a biodiversity hotspot off the Pacific coast of Panama. Using the AUV SeaBED, 12 photo-transects of the seafloor systematically captured over 21,712 images during a research cruise in...

Evolution, by means of natural selection, is a core concept central to understanding biology. A hurdle to effective natural selection instruction is the wide range of alternative conceptions held by...

Research reveals that developing a meaningful multileveled understanding of molecular genetics is challenging for students. An unexplored approach to fostering this scientific understanding is the use...

The purpose of this study arose from a pilot-study problem observed of acceptance of microevolution among those who identified as holding a creationist worldview or as having misgivings about the...

The idea for this study came from the shortage of research that has been done to understand the evolution instruction provided by new secondary education teachers. A lack of training in teachers can...

Evolution by natural selection is foundational in biology, yet decades of science education research have shown that common alternative conceptions often persist after college biology instruction...

It has been well documented that the San Diego area has seen an increase in bacteria in its waterways. Due to its close negative correlation with human health, it is important to attempt to address...

Bony fish are the most primitive vertebrates to possess an adaptive immune system. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is one example of these bony fish, which means they have an immune system similar to that...

The purpose of this study was to test the concurrent validity and intraclass reliability of two mobile apps designed to measure countermovement jump (CMJ) height. The concurrent validity and...
