▪ Patient had an A1C of 14% and after six months of monthly nutritional counseling, he reached an A1C of 8.1%. This can decrease hospitalization risk by more than 60%. ▪ Led albumin improvement plan and after three months of interventions on increasing oral supplement accessibility for qualified patients and nutritional counseling, we met the albumin goal and exceeded the national goal by 2%. This outcome can reduce mortality risk by 67%.

Apple Valley, Ca

▪ Led nutrition safety initiatives on the neonatal intensive care unit department that contributed to the hospital earning the 2017 Women's Choice Award as one of America's best hospitals for patient safety. ▪ Trained dietetic students who as a result of their experience passed the dietetic registration exam and joined our clinical team afterwards.

Dr. Dulac's laboratory is using molecular, genetic and optical techniques to expand knowledge on the molecular and neuronal basis of innate social behaviors in the mouse. Olfaction in mice is governed by two distinct systems: the main olfactory epithelium and the vomeronasal organ. The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is particularly important for guiding social behavior because of its role in detecting nonvolatile pheromones.

Olfaction in mice is governed by two distinct systems: the main olfactory epithelium and the vomeronasal organ. The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is particularly important for guiding social behavior because of its role in detecting nonvolatile pheromones. As the the accessory olfactory bulb receives information it activates several brain regions involved in gender-specific conducts such as parental behaviors, couplingbehaviors and antagonistic behaviors. Male territorial defense is a type of antagonisticbehavior relying on aggression towards a same-sex conspecific. In my project, we were interested inaggressive behavior stimulated through VNO pathway. Especially, we aimed tounderstand how pheromones regulate the aggression responses after variable periods ofsocial isolation. We also want to understand the physiology of neurons in the central targetsof the VNO in order to better understand neural computations underlying male territorialaggression. My contributions expanded on the temporal dynamics of the aggressive response in males, as well as the synaptic physiology of central targets of the VNO. Show less

IGF-II has been proven to be involved in the proliferation of metastatic breast cancer. The main focus of our study was to explore how binding proteins (BP) regulate the proliferation of mIGF II. We found the need for more extensive analysis in order to understand this bio-molecular interaction.
