One of the benefits of attending a smaller school like Roanoke College is the opportunity to work closely with a faculty member on research. In working on research with Dr. Marilee Ramesh over her four years, senior Sydney Webb has created a strong relationship that has provided immeasurable experience, knowledge, and support.
Ramesh and Webb have worked together since Webb was a freshman through the Undergraduate Research Assistant Program (URAP), a 4-year research experience unique to Roanoke College. Webb attributes much of her impressive resume to her involvement in URAP. “URAP has allowed me to build my research lab experience,” she said.
Being active in URAP has allowed Webb to accumulate a vast number of lab hours over the years, experience that is very attractive to graduate schools. These hours have given Webb a lot of experience: “I’ve been able to work in the lab since freshman year, where as in many bigger schools you can’t start working in the lab until your junior year.” she said. “URAP has allowed me to manage my own research projects and actually apply techniques that I have only learned about in science classes.”
Ramesh and Webb have developed a strong relationship. “When I write letters of recommendation I am able to go into more detail about the student because I really know how they work and have multiple examples to give of things they have done. The letters become more in-depth because I know them so well,” Ramesh said.
Webb also worked with Ramesh over the summer between freshman and sophomore years through Roanoke College’s Summer Scholars Program, in which Webb was paid to work with Ramesh full-time over the summer. She also received a free tuition credit and free housing. At the end of the eight weeks of research, Webb had accumulated close to two hundred hours of lab time. It was during this summer that Webb was able to start the research program that she continues to work on to this day.
Ramesh has not only helped Webb make connections beyond Roanoke. “Part of my job working with students is to help them find other experiences working outside of our campus. It is important for them to get some experience elsewhere,” Ramesh said. Ramesh encouraged Webb to spend the following summer at Texas A&M as part of an NSF-funded Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program.
“The program gives undergrad students a chance to work on research in a lab with graduate students,” she said, “URAP was instrumental in getting me into the REU program.” She worked in the Cellular and Molecular Medicine Department at Texas A&M, where got the “big lab” experience. “In bigger schools you may only be able to meet with a professor if you have a question once a week, if that, while at a smaller school like Roanoke you can work one-on-one with a professor almost every day of the week,” she said.
Webb is currently applying to graduate schools in hopes of studying Cancer Biology. “It’s great to see students improving over the years and to see them mature. It’s my job to help them take advantage of as many opportunities as possible along the way,” said Ramesh. At Roanoke, the connections will last well beyond graduation.
Congratulations to three Roanoke College graduates and Dr. Chris Lassiter for their recognition by the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) for a recent peer-reviewed publication.
Zebrafish (Danio rerio) androgen receptor: sequence homology and up-regulation by the fungicide vinclozolin.
Journal
Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol., 2010;151:161-166, Smolinsky AN, Doughman JM, Kratzke LT, Lassiter CS. Roanoke College
Description
In this study, we demonstrate the evolutionary conservation between the genomic structure of the human and zebrafish androgen receptor (ar) genes and find that ar mRNA expression increases in zebrafish embryos exposed to vinclozolin, a fungicide and endocrine disruptor. At 48 and 72 hours post-fertilization, vinclozolin-treated embryos express ar mRNA 8-fold higher than the control level. These findings suggest that zebrafish embryos attempt to compensate for the presence of an anti-androgen by increasing the number of androgen receptors available.
Faculty
Christopher Lassiter is an assistant professor of biology.
Student
Amanda Smolinsky, Jennifer Doughman, and Lien-Thanh Kratzke were biology majors and received independent study credit and defending the work in senior theses. Jennifer Doughman is working as a research technician at the University of Virginia. Lien-thanh Kratzke is completing her MD at Eastern Virginia Medical School.
Fund
The research was supported by Roanoke College Summer Scholars program and a Roanoke College Faculty Research Grant.
I am pleased to announce an opportunity for students to show off their research and creativity on campus this Spring. We’re calling it the “Roanoke College Conference on Student Research & Creativity”, and it will be held in the Colket Center on Saturday, March 19, 2011. Abstract submissions are due by Friday, March 5, though students are strongly encouraged to submit sooner. Online submission form: https://tiny.cc/1kim5
We will accept abstracts from any of the following categories, which follows the NCUR model:
Oral Presentation – 15-minute presentation, 5 minutes for questions
Poster Presentation
Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Drama/Theater) – up to 15 minutes with 5 minutes for questions
We will accept a wide range of projects, from class projects to finished senior theses. We would like the conference to be as inclusive as possible for research, creative work, scholarship, performances, etc. that happen in and out of the classroom. We plan to have a keynote speaker as well as some awards.
This event replaces the student showcase that usually takes place on the Saturday of Alumni weekend. We hope that by moving this event to an earlier weekend that more students will be able to participate.
Everyone is welcome to attend. Please contact Dr. Julie Lyon, Director of Student/Faculty Research if you need additional information about this event.
