A11: Injection Induced Seismicity in Culberson County, Texas
The purpose of this project is to better understand how deep injection of wastewater from hydraulic fracturing is causing seismicity. Numerous studies have established a relationship between the two (Weingarten et al. 2015), but it is unclear why some faults become active due to the fluid injection and others do not. Our aim is to […]

A15: Molecular Mechanism of Substrate Protein Recognition and Protein Remodeling by E. coli Hsp90 Molecular Chaperone
Proteins are biological macromolecules that serve a variety of roles in the body, such as providing structural support, transporting molecules around the body, supporting immune function, and facilitating muscle contraction. For these proteins to perform their role, they must fold properly. Some proteins fold spontaneously while others require the help of specialized proteins known as […]
A16: Lifetime Measurement of Lithium Dimers using Molecular Spectroscopy Techniques
Fluorescence lifetime is a unique property of atoms and molecules which can be used in many applications such as medical imaging, and also teaches us more about light-matter interactions in different media. When energy in the form of a photon hits a particle, the energy is absorbed and an electron on the particle enters an […]
A17: Lead Analysis of a Vacant Property In Hamilton, Ohio of Paint, Soil, Dust, and Road Sediment Present to Determine Similarities in the Source Lead
Hamilton, Ohio is a post-industrial city in southwestern Ohio with many vacant properties that are being rehabilitated for economic growth. Due to the history of industrialism, Hamilton is at a higher risk of environmental contamination. Samples were collected from a residential property near The Great Miami River that is at high risk of contamination because […]
