Chemistry
Objectives/Goals My goal in this project was to stabilize porous silicon (pSi) in basic conditions (pH>7) using thermolytic grafting of trihydridosilane. Many drugs right now are taken orall…
Biochemistry
Genome instability is a major driving force of tumorigenesis. To counteract destructive effects of DNA damage, cells evolved a complex system of DNA repair. RAD51 protein takes the center st…
Chemistry
Objectives/Goals Surface tension strength really depends on many factors, not just electrical attractivity, adhesion, and cohesion. The chemicals and other molecules that may be within the l…

Third Award
High blood pressure affects millions of people worldwide. In this illness, activity of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) leads to the narrowing of blood vessels. There are many drugs that…
Chemistry
Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in Earth’s atmosphere have increased dramatically in recent decades, and many strategies in carbon capture and sequestration have been investigated to remediate t…
Chemistry
Dithienylethenes (DTE) undergo reversible isomerization to colored isomers upon light irradiation. These compounds are considered as one of the most promising classes of organic photochromic…
Chemistry
The purpose of this research is to use the Citrus sinensis peel to develop a polymer capable of adsorbing and retaining heavy metals dissolved in water such as the hexavalent chromium which…
Chemistry
Second Award
Due to toxic industrial waste environmental pollution due has become one of the most significant problems nowadays. Most widely-used method of utilization of carbon monoxide, a poisonous byp…
Biochemistry
Pathological angiogenesis and fibrosis are the hallmark features of several cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, and can…
Biochemistry
Zika(ZIKV) poses unknown long-term threats to both adults and infants. Much inability to combat it comes from its complex envelope structure and resulting atypical biochemical properties. Th…
Chemistry
Objectives/Goals Converting lipids extracted from used coffee grounds into usable biodiesel efficiently by using a strong acid catalyst and comparing it to other fuels, such as vegetable bio…
Chemistry
Objectives/Goals This project investigated the inhibitory properties of aqueous extracts of waste coffee grounds (WCG) on the corrosion of zinc in HCl. The effects of extract concentration a…
Chemistry
The purpose of this project was to engineer an alternative method for transporting water into space by using the process of frozen reverse water spherificaiton. Moreover, the problem of tran…
Chemistry
Objectives/Goals Our project was about testing and finding the total amount of corrosion accumulated on iron and copper in different possible solutions. We experimented to find the extent of…
