University of Iowa-Wu Lab Lead Researcher Paraquat Drop Feeding project that tested how long a 10 millimolar methyl viologen (paraquat) solution took to kill 100+ genotypes of Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) in both a sucrose solution and water against sucrose and water controls in a week cycle; managed an taught other research assistants, Excel graphical analysis.Lifespan and Aging project to determine the lifespan under optimal conditions of 29ºC with fresh food… Show more University of Iowa-Wu Lab Lead Researcher Paraquat Drop Feeding project that tested how long a 10 millimolar methyl viologen (paraquat) solution took to kill 100+ genotypes of Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) in both a sucrose solution and water against sucrose and water controls in a week cycle; managed an taught other research assistants, Excel graphical analysis.Lifespan and Aging project to determine the lifespan under optimal conditions of 29ºC with fresh food daily of CS, eag1, HK2;GST206255;ry+, and eag4pm genotypes of Drosophila melanogaster. Compiled data using Excel and calculated survival rates and generated survival curves; data to be published in the of The Journal of Neurogenetics. Taught and supervised high school students in the SSTP program.Virgin collection project and Ring-X chromosome maintenance, involving selection for and against Drosophila traits.UAS P-Element insertion project to determine chromosomal insertion of the P-Element gene in Drosophila melanogaster. Testing procedure included cross breeding various male UAS genotypes with virgin female WiCyOiTM3/xa and using progeny eye color to determine chromosomal insertion.Lethality testing on various Drosophila genotypes. Caffeine, theophylline, and hydroxyzine used in 2 and 5 millimolar concentrations against a controlled medium to test potassium channel susceptibility to specific drug. Results analyzed with Excel.Research AssistantActivity counter project used to analyze sleep and activity patterns of Ring-X chromosome Drosophila melanogaster against various CS wildtype genotypes. Graphical rendering was done using programs written by Dr. Atsushi Ueda.Stock maintenance of various Drosophila melanogaster genotypes.Various clerical duties including typing from dictation, generic computer use (Mac ad Windows), including Excel, Visual Studio, Matlab, and some C++ programming. Maintaining level of lab materials including vials, office supplies, and fly stocks. Show less
