TAC-1 depletion in C. Elegans using RNAi
No full textRNA (single stranded DNA) was fed to microscopic worms (nematodes) to inhibit a target gene. In this case, tac-1. Tac-1 is a microtubule associated-protein, and heavily involved in the cell cycle (cell division). When tac-1 is depleted in worms, the phenotype is observed and these observations can pave the way to understand TACC related cancer in humans. TACC related cancer has been seen in almost 90% of thyroid and breast cancers via over expression or under expression of TACC proteins

The Biomedical Ethics of Palliative Psychiatry in Anorexia Nervosa Patients
No full textMy presentation is going to be created from the extensive research paper that I am writing on the biomedical ethics of palliative psychiatry in patients specifically with Anorexia Nervosa. The paper as well as the presentation will explore ethical frameworks that can be applied to this medical practice by diving into case studies, looking at arguments of people currently in the field, analyzing what criteria needs to be taken into account, and more. This Keystone was added to the Biomedical Ethics course I am taking this semester so the audience is my classmates. However, this presentation is also tailored to everyone (college students, professors, healthcare providers) to bring awareness to this new and controversial branch in medicine, of palliative care for psychiatry disorders

An Examination of how Black Church Leaders Support the Long-Term Impact of Trauma in the Black Community: A Qualitative Transcendental Phenomenological Study
No full textThe prevalence of mental illness due to untreated childhood trauma continues to be a concern, particularly for Black people. The consequence of obtaining formal treatment is perceived to be discriminatory and stigmatizing in the Black culture. Instead, the preferred method of treatment is religious coping. The purpose of this transcendental phenomenological study was to examine how Black clergy leaders support the long-term impact of trauma in the Black community. The primary source of data collection was semi-structured interviews. These interviews captured the essence of how Black clergy leaders described their preparedness to effectively advise, and counsel congregants on mental health issues. Clergy leaders were asked two general questions to help guide their narratives about whether they believed they possessed the knowledge, skills and abilities to effectively advise, and counsel those in need. Three themes emerged from the research question. The findings from this study revealed the need for formal education and training on mental health to successfully meet the needs of congregants. To affect sustainable change in Black communities, mental health literacy must be treated as a vital resource that equips clergy leaders with tools designed to destigmatize mental illness, promote healing and lead with a holistic pastoral care approach
