University of Idaho - CLASS
Presenter: Lauren Fins.Historically, chocolate was used in cultural and religious ceremonies. It was used as a means of exchange (like money), consumed as a drink—both hot and cold—taken as medicine, and eaten as a high-energy food, as a luxury food, a confection, and as an important ingredient in flavoring other foods. Inventions during the Industrial Revolution allowed candymakers to mechanize and refine chocolate production. Now some people claim they are addicted to chocolate. But are they really? Professor Emerita Fins will address this question, review some of the natural and cultural history of chocolate, explain how chocolate is produced, and she will dispel some of the myths that have been attached to this “food of the gods.”.

University of Idaho - SCI
Hiding in Plain Sight: How viruses evolve to avoid antibodies
Presenter: Dr. Tanya Miura
Professor and Chair, Department of Biological Sciences
Synopsis: Purified antibodies are increasingly being used to treat viral infections, including COVID-19. However, as we have seen with the many variants of SARS-CoV-2 during the pandemic, viruses readily evolve resistance to antibodies. My lab is part of a collaborative team within the College of Science that is studying how viruses evolve resistance to antibodies. In this talk, I’ll demonstrate how SARS-CoV-2 has evolved antibody resistance and describe the studies our team has performed with respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, and antibodies that are critical for protecting high-risk infants. We are taking novel, interdisciplinary approaches to predict antibody-resistant variants and understand the limitations of viral evolution toward antibody resistance.
Tanya Miura is professor and chair of the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Idaho.…

The general goals and purpose of the groups are to help participants improve the four skills noted above, although the design of the groups for the CTC may be brief and thus, may be focused on only one or two skills at a time. Although students go through varying stages from Freshman to Senior, all students can benefit from developing the sets of skills covered in the groups. This group should be appropriate for all students of all ethnicities and backgrounds.
