Abstract Background Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many universities moved emergency remote teaching (ERT). This allowed institutions continue their instruction despite not being in person. However, ERT is without consequences. For example, students may have inadequate technological supports, such as reliable internet and computers. Students also poor learning environments at home need find added employment support families. In addition, there are consequences faculty. It has been shown that...
While many STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) instructors returned to in-person instruction in fall 2021, others found themselves continuing teach via online, hybrid, or hybrid flexible (i.e., hyflex) formats. Regardless of one's instructional modality, the findings from our own other studies provided insight into effective strategies for increasing student engagement decreasing cognitive overload. As part this perspective, we included data undergraduate students, whom...
Abstract Students are more likely to learn in college science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) classrooms when instructors use teacher discourse moves (TDMs) that encourage student engagement learning. However, although teaching practices well studied, TDMs not understood STEM classrooms. In courses at a minority-serving institution (MSI; n = 74), we used two classroom observation protocols investigate across disciplines, instructor types, years of experience, class size. We found...
As part of the Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology , we published Registered Reports that described how intended to replicate selected experiments from 29 high-impact preclinical cancer biology papers between 2010 and 2012. Replication were completed Studies reporting results submitted for 18 papers, which 17 accepted by eLife with rejected paper posted as a preprint. Here, report status outcomes obtained remaining 11 papers. Four initiated experimental work but stopped without any...
The Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology seeks to address growing concerns about reproducibility in scientific research by conducting replications of selected experiments from a substantial number high-profile papers the field cancer biology. papers, which were published between 2010 and 2012, on basis citations Altmetric scores (Errington et al., 2014). This Registered Report describes proposed replication plan “A chromatin-mediated reversible drug-tolerant state cell subpopulations”...
Romosozumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody specific for sclerostin (SOST), has been approved treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk fracture. Previous work in global knockout (Sost-/-) mice indicated alterations immune cell development the bone marrow (BM), which could be possible side effect romosozumab-treated patients. Here, we examined effects short-term depletion BM on hematopoiesis young receiving (Scl-Ab) 6 weeks, and long-term Sost deficiency wild-type...
Instructor discourse, defined as verbal interactions with students in the classroom, can play an important role student learning. Instructors who use dialogic discourse invite to develop their own ideas, and both instructor share ideas back-and-forth exchanges. This type of is well-suited facilitate deep learning for but rare undergraduate biology classrooms. Understanding reasoning that underlies inform teaching professional development instructors are support Through classroom video...

Introduction Erythropoiesis occurs in a specialized niche the bone marrow and is regulated part by oxygen-sensing signaling pathways. VHL an E3 ubiquitin ligase that regulates degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) proteins under normoxic conditions. In hypoxia, inactivated resulting enhancement HIF signaling. Methods results To investigate effects HIF-activation cells on erythropoiesis, we performed longitudinal analyses conditional Vhl knockout mice (Dmp1-Cre;Vhl fl/fl ; cKO) mice,...
Students at Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs) faced significant hardships while trying to learn through emergency remote teaching (ERT) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our research aims investigate if science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) instructors thought about enacted more learner-centered practices alleviate some of this stress encountered by their students. Using semi-structured interviews classroom observations, we utilized inductive deductive qualitative methods...
