Synthesis Of Potential Small-Molecule Inhibitors For S. Commune Metacaspase, Truc Pham
Synthesis Of Potential Small-Molecule Inhibitors For S. Commune Metacaspase, Truc Pham
Steinmetz Symposium Posters
Metacaspase are proteases that are involved in the cell death pathway of fungi. A better understanding of metacaspase might be helpful in the development of the antifungal drugs. The project was a collaboration between the Fox Lab and the Kehlbeck Lab. The Fox Lab aims to elucidate the structures and the properties of five types of metacaspase enzyme in S. commune fungus. The Kehlbeck Lab, has been working on synthesizing different inhibitors for the S. commune metacaspase. Z-Arg(Pmc)-benzothiazole served has been shown to inhibit similar metacaspases in similar organisms. The project aimed to propose the most effective synthetic pathway to …

Optimizing A Connecting Rod Through 3d Printing, John Ozirsky
Steinmetz Symposium Posters
The use of 3D printing metals has become an increasingly popular manufacturing method in the automotive and aerospace industry, causing a push for faster and cheaper processes. 3D printing has the unique ability to fabricate parts that have been topographically optimized, a method that takes given loads and uses finite element analysis to optimize material layout while maintaining strength. An original and optimized connecting rod will be printed with the selective laser melting and binder jetting processes. Another connecting rod will be machined at the Union College Machine Shop. Weights from the Union College Material Science lab will be used …

Steinmetz Symposium Posters
Our study of lapis lazuli throughout the term integrated art and science. Lapis lazuli is a brilliant blue-purple hue used in many paintings throughout the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. The pigment lapis lazuli can be used in fresco, tempera, and oil paintings. Lapis lazuli originates from Afghanistan and makes its way into Europe through the port city of Venice. Lapis lazuli could be more expensive than gold during this time period which makes it a highly desirable pigment and hue. We also studied the chemical structure of lapis lazuli as well as analysis methods such as infrared reflectography and …

Analytical Chemistry Water Project Poster Sessions
The goal of this project was to quantify inorganic analytes in water from various sources in the Capital Region1. Specifically, we chose to investigate the differences in inorganic ion concentrations in samples from above- and underground natural water sources. Samples were obtained from Wilsey Creek, Delanson Pond, and the Saratoga Springs, the locations of which are labeled on the map below. Tap water was used to compare these natural water sources to a familiar source. Water sources investigated in this experiment: Saratoga Springs – obtained from downtown spring Wilsey Creek – obtained upstream from road crossing in Burtonville Delanson Pond …

2018 Diversity and Inclusion Certification Course
There were many possibilities for new inclusion and diversity initiatives that the Becker Career Center could take advantage of. We wanted to set reasonable and measurable short-term and long-term goals for all members of our staff to execute.

DEI has become increasingly important for all libraries because while the populations we serve are more diverse our staff is not. What are initiatives that I can do to support an inclusive culture for the library, campus and profession?
