Hugh Edmondson Research Fellowship: Internship Projects
The research projects vary yearly and the topics will be provided to the incoming interns before starting of the program. A Round Robin Project Matching Meeting will be held to match students’ research interests with the mentors’ projects. Then, each intern is assigned to a research project working in the mentor’s laboratory. The research projects offered during the summer of 2008 are summarized as follows:
- P53R270H Mutation in Prostate of Mouse
- Validation and Thermal Stress Testing of Glucose Test Strips
- The Effects of Grape Powder Supplementation on Biomarkers of Inflammation and Oxidative Stress
- Effect of 5-Aza-2’-Deoxycytidine on the Methylation Status in Human Breast Cancer Cells
- The Role of Neuropilin-Mediated Semaphorin Signaling in Submandibular Gland Branching Morphogenesis
- Effects of Aloe Vera Supplementation on Glucose, Insulin and Oxidative Stress in Subjects with Pre-Diabetes
- Characterization of Nef from a Non-Pathogenic SIV
- Angiogenesis, Tumor Growth and Metastatic Development in a Murine Mammary Tumor Model: An Anti-Cancer Drug Efficacy Study
