IMPACT

Congratulations to 2019 ARCS Foundation Oregon scholars!

Biologist Jaga Giebultowicz published a new study with which suggests that the blue wavelengths produced by light-emitting diodes damage cells in the brain and retinas.

Mathematics senior Rachel Sousa found her passion in mathematical biology, motivated to work harder and break barriers in the notoriously male-dominated field.

Biochemists find that the brains of people with congenital deafness may be rewiring themselves in ways that affect how those people learn.

Physicist Bo Sun had a breakthrough discovery that remove bottlenecks to making more effective metastatic cancer treatments a reality with tremendous social impact.

Scientific discovery at OSU is driven by big thinking, insatiable curiosity and out-of-the-box ideas that find a way into the economy.

Biochemists Alvaro Estevez and Maria Franco discover an important breakthrough toward understanding why certain cells in the nervous system are prone to breaking down and dying.

Faculty and student researchers in biochemistry uncover protein modifications that may lead to potential new cancer therapies that spare healthy cells.

Biophysicists have opened up a possible avenue for new cancer therapies with reduced side effects.

Nobel Laureate Louis Ignarro, a pharmacologist sometimes referred to as the “Father of Viagra,” will give a public lecture, “The Road to Stockholm – A Nobel Mission,” on August 16 at OSU.

Doctoral student Patrick Morar is the 2019-20 Christopher and Catherine Mathews Graduate Fellow in the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics.

Science students organize a very successful biomedical ethics conference.
