Below is some information about the authors of this website, created for the Fall semester of Biology 181 Honors section in 2004. You can contact each of us by clicking the link across from our names, and we hope you've enjoyed perusing our hard work and research. If you'd like some more information about our class you can contact our instructors Dr. William Grimes or Dr. Elizabeth Williot. It was a blast doing all this for you, our viewers, and thanks for stopping by!

Group 8, 2004

	Dr. Anne Cress, Ph. D. (Mentor)
	Fields of Study:	Radiation Oncology and Molecular and Cell Biology

A Few Words: Anne E. Cress, PhD, is Associate Dean for Research in the College of Medicine, University of Arizona and a Professor of Cell Biology and Anatomy, Radiation Oncology and Molecular and Cellular Biology and a member of the Cancer Biology Graduate Interdisciplinary Graduate Program. She has over 25 years of experience in the areas of cell and tumor biology and has made substantial contributions to the understanding of cellular responses to DNA damaging agents and the response of cells to environmental signals. Dr. Cress has authored over 100 original research articles and has served as a mentor to undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty.

 

	Clayton C. Badeaux
	Fields of Study:	Biochemistry, Management of Info. Systems, Computational Mathematics
	Year: Sophomore
	Contributions:	Website Design, Introduction, Transcription Factors

A few words: As a returning student my experiences at the university have been both fascinating and diverse. I chose my fields of study due to a lifetime love of biology, oncology, and computational modeling. With many years of experience in software development and management of project teams my goal is to one day work with research labs in implementing systems and software to model genetic systems computationally, and to translate effects of genetic hybridization with mathematical modelling and large number theory. My other interests include finance, game theory, ecology, and media arts.

 

	Heidi L. Hayes
	Fields of Study:	Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics & International Studies
	Year: Freshman
	Contributions:	Liason, Project Leader, Cancer and Embryology

A few words: I am an undergraduate freshman in the College of Science at the University of Arizona. Originally from Delano, Minnesota (near Minneapolis) moving to Arizona has been a really fun adventure, and I have had many great experiences. I chose each of my majors because they will give me a strong base on which to transition to medical school when I graduate with my bachelors degrees.  I have a strong interest in becoming a surgeon in a hospital setting, but a side passion is international health, and i hope to go overseas in the next couple years to work on that issue.  I hope to graduate with two majors in the spring of 2009. My favorite lecture in Honors Biology has been Speaker - Dr. Scott Klewer Hope for Hearts: The Past, Present, and Future of Pediatric Cardiology.  My favorite class this semester has been Traditions and Cultures 101: Chinese Civilization-a real eye opener!

 

	Audrey Jean La Noce
	Fields of Study:	Physiology, Pre-Med
	Year: Senior
	Contributions:	Website Layout, Transcription Factors

A few words: I am a senior at the University of Arizona in the Physiology Department, in the School of Medicine. I am originally from Long Island New York, where I lived until 2001. I then attended Buffalo State College, and then the University of Buffalo in Buffalo New York, where I studied Biology. I am interested in pursuing a career in the Field of medicine, and I hope to attend the University's medical school. I enjoyed working on the website design because it gave me a greater prospective on what goes into making a website.

	Arvind Vijayasarathi
	Field of Study:	Physiological Sciences
	Year: Freshman
	Contributions:	Copyright and References, Cancer and Embryology

A Few Words : My name is Arvind Vijayasarathi, and I am currently a freshman at the University of Arizona's College of Health Professions. My particular field of study is Physiological Sciences, and I plan to pursue a career as a Physician. I have thoroughly enjoyed this website design process, and credit the Honors Biology 181 section with introducing me to university level research.

	Meghan Dickerson
	Fields of Study:	Molecular & Cellular Biology
	Year: Freshman
	Contribution:	Epithelial Mesenchymal Transitions

A few words: My name is Meghan Dickerson. I am a freshman at the University of Arizona and am currently undeclared. I am originally from Scottsdale, Arizona. This project was very interesting for me and I have learned a tremendous amount about biology and myself.
