SUMMARY:Biological Sciences Colloquium: Drew Little
DESCRIPTION:Drew Little\, Ph.D. Candidate at UW-Milwaukee\, will present a talk entitled\, “Female interactions and their roles in mate choice.” \nThe abstract is as follows: \n“Currently\, many scientific studies in courtship emphasize the behavior and traits of males in determining mate choice. While incredibly successful\, this scope has led to misconceptions about the complexity of females when assessing potential mates. Using Enchenopa binotata as a model\, I will be challenging the misconceptions that (1) female interactions are simple; and (2)\, that female mate choice is only informed by the cues of courting males. To make my case I will be presenting evidence of the complex interactions of females during courtship\, that females interpret their social environment when assessing potential mates\, and that this interpretation can lead to maternal effects on offspring mate choice and courtship behaviors.” \nThe presentation will begin at 4:00 PM in Lapham Hall N101\, preceded by an informal reception from 3:45-4:00 PM.

SUMMARY:Biological Sciences Colloquium: Dr. Matthew Shoulders
DESCRIPTION:Dr Matthew Shoulders of MIT will present a talk about his work entitled\, “Collagen Folding and Assembly in the Secretory Pathway.” \nThe abstract is as follows: \n“Collagen is the most abundant protein in humans and the molecular scaffold for animal life. Yet\, much remains to be elucidated regarding how cells successfully fold\, quality control\, and secrete this fundamental and uniquely complex component of the extracellular matrix. Progress towards defining how procollagen trimers are assembled with correct stoichiometries and composition will be discussed. Discoveries regarding key roles of sugar modifications in ensuring collagen proteostasis will also be presented. Connections to diseases of the extracellular matrix and potential therapeutic opportunities will be integrated throughout.” \nThe presentation will begin at 4:00 PM in Lapham Hall N101\, preceded by an informal reception from 3:45 – 4:00 PM.

SUMMARY:Biological Sciences Colloquium: Dr. Caroline Turner
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Caroline Turner of Loyola University will present a talk about her work entitled\, “Effects of resource limitation on the evolution of biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance.” \nThe Abstract is as follows: \n“Growth and reproduction of organisms is frequently limited by the availability of food resources\, often by the availability of one particular limiting element. Adaptation to this nutrient scarcity is a key way in which organisms can improve their evolutionary fitness in these environments. However\, we know little about how nutrient limitation alters the evolution of key microbial traits that impact humans\, such as growth of biofilms and resistance to antibiotics. I use experimental evolution\, evolving bacteria under controlled conditions in the laboratory\, to test how variation in resource availability affects the evolution of biofilm formation and of antibiotic resistance.” \nThe presentation will begin at 4:00 PM in Lapham Hall N101\, preceded by an informal reception from 3:45 – 4:00 PM.
