Why study biological science at Marymount?<\/strong><\/p>\n We have a\u00a0unique situation<\/strong>\u00a0here in that our department consists of Biological and Physical Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics all in one department).\u00a0 This is advantageous to our students because we can provide a\u00a0truly multidisciplinary education<\/strong>\u00a0where students can draw from learning experiences in different areas of science to answer problems or conduct research.\u00a0 In addition, our commitment to\u00a0undergraduate research<\/strong>\u00a0is exceptional.\u00a0 Our focus is on providing undergraduate students a\u00a0truly rewarding and scientifically productive research experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Currently, students have opportunities to explore areas like neuron pathway development, turtle physiology and growth, plant-fungus symbiotic relationships, atmospheric reactions, 3D printing of assistive devices and experimental prosthetics as well as, star and planet formation. Additionally, opportunities exist to become involved in research that expands beyond biology and physical science. For example, Biology majors can join with Mathematics faculty and students to study the modeling of disease spread and dynamics.<\/p>\n Students who engage in research early on have many opportunities to advance to a level where they would present their findings either locally, or more likely, on a regional or national level. Research opportunities outside of Marymount University also exist and many internships become a next step in the development of research scientists.<\/p>\n The Rearrangement of Oxonium Ylides through the 1,4-hydride abstraction – Kathryn Fossaceca, Robert Montecinos, Deana Jaber<\/a><\/p>\n Co-localization of CHL1 and ROBO1 During Embryonic Development in Mouse Brains – Saher Sohail, Amanda Wright<\/a><\/p>\n Colocalization of CHL1 and SLIT1 During Embryonic Development of Mouse Brain – Callie Levinger, Phuong Tran, Amanda Wright<\/a><\/p>\n Incorporation of Visual Feedback with Myoelectric Prosthetic Training – Katherine Sanchez, Eric Bubar<\/a><\/p>\n Manual Gross Dexterity Analysis of Four Popular Styles of eNABLE 3D Printed Prosthetic Hands Using the Box and Block Test – Eric Malani, Eric Bubar<\/a><\/p>\n From Strawberry Fields to Chemistry Class – Simone Walker, Quyen Doan, Deana Jaber<\/a><\/p>\n CHEMCompete: An Organic Chemistry Card Game to Differentiate between Substitution and Elimination Reactions of Alkyl Halides – Kristin Gogal, William Heuett, Deana Jaber<\/a><\/p>\n NMR Spectroscopy – Lindsay Rose, Kathryn Fossaceca, Deana Jaber<\/a><\/p>\n NMR Spectroscopy Safety – Yaa Ampofo, Anwar Causey, Deana Jaber<\/a><\/p>\n NMR…MRI?
