A Molecular Band-Aid Reduces Area of Desmoplakin Exposed for Cleavage by Calpain (presentation on Youtube). Catherine Hoover - Chemistry; Biochemistry
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, a genetic disease characterized by fibrofatty infiltration into the myocardium, can be linked to mutations in the protein desmoplakin (DSP). Herein, we performed molecular dynamics on DSP to test our “molecular band-aid,” a mutation which models a treatment for ACM.
Faculty Sponsor – Dr. Maegen Borzok.

A book displaying through understanding of Typography in an ABC format. The ABC book I created for typography embodies the whole organic feeling, since it is about mushrooms. My idea stemmed from wanting to be able to forge the mushrooms if you were to take the book out with you.
Wondering Trees.
By: Natasha Kamzelski
It's about shedding my old self and reflecting on who I have left in the past. The trees are my past experiences and the snake is my old self wondering through the reflecting memories. The snake is moving away from me as I release these thoughts.

Hades and Cerberus.
By: Kaitlin Tewell
“Hades and Cerberus” was made in John Shanchuk’s Digital Illustration class Fall 2019. The project was to ‘paint’ a story using Photoshop. I chose to paint Hades with his guard dog, Cerberus because it was a kind tale about the gentle nature of Hades and his compassion for misunderstood creatures.
