Cytotoxic Effects of Curcumin and Nigella Sativa on Cancer Cells

Toxicology Honorable_mention Award

After recently undergoing a chemotherapy treatment for cancer, our grandfather suffered from the unpleasant side effects of the treatment including fatigue and nausea. Since spices are known…

Development of a Multi-Pathway Photosensitizer Cocktail for the Photodynamic Treatment of Harmful Algal Blooms

Toxicology First Award

Greenhouse gases and nutrient loading have contributed to the proliferation of harmful algal blooms. The overgrowth of diatoms and dinoflagellates forms hypoxic dead zones and produces letha…

Efficacy Of Various Spice Extracts In Combating Potential Stimulant Hazards

Toxicology First Award

Caffeine pollution is a form of wastewater pollution prevalent in the United States and other parts of the globe. We hypothesized that certain spices might be able to counteract stressful st…

Investigating the proliferation, invasion, and resistance to chemotherapy-induced apoptosis of A549 lung cancer cells in relation to synthetic nicotine exposure

Toxicology Second Award

Marketed as the tobacco-free alternative to traditional rolled cigarettes, e-cigarettes use synthetic nicotine to bypass FDA standards for tobacco products. Synthetic nicotine (TFN), a racem…

Not-So-Freshwater

Toxicology Third Award

This experiment seeks to determine whether or not freshwater acidification impacts the heart rate of Daphnia Magna. Not many studies have looked into the impact of freshwater acidification,…

Pesky Pesticides

Toxicology Honorable_mention Award

The reason we did this project was to see if the Carmel River had dangerous amounts of herbicides in it. Our research questions are: 1) Are pesticides detectable in the Carmel River? 2) Will…

Round-up All The Mussels: The effects of glyphosate-based roundup in varying concentrations on the gonad BMI and cellular structure of freshwater mussels

Toxicology Fourth Award

Objectives My objective was to see if the addition of a glyphosate-based herbicide, an endocrine disruptor, could decrease the gonad mass, this would show that the mussel has been feminized.…

Study focusing on human Sodium-dependent Multivitamin Transporter (hSMVT) and its application in cancer cell targeting

Toxicology Third Award

Colon cancer is the third leading cause of cancer related deaths with over 940,000 deaths reported worldwide in 2020. The overexpression of certain membrane bound proteins, such as Sodium-de…

The effects of artificial flavorings on intestinal barrier permeability in Drosophila melanogaster

Toxicology Honorable_mention Award

Increased intestinal permeability has been linked to diseases such as type 2 diabetes and celiac disease, and the prevalence of these diseases has risen as processed foods become a staple pa…

The Percent Uptake of Polyethylene After Three Trophic Levels, From Rotifera to Artemia to Medusa

Toxicology Fourth Award
