A Bioinformatic Look at Iron Uptake in Insects part of CUREnet:Institutes:CU Denver:Examples
Students will perform BLAST searches, make phylogenetic trees, identify putative orthologs, and investigate secondary structure elements of 5' untranslated regions (UTRs). The sequences used will be related to iron uptake in insects.
Solving the 1D Schrodinger Equation part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2020:Activities
In this activity, students will explore 1-dimensional solutions to the time-independent Schrodinger equation. Students will utilize a provided MATLAB live script to determine exact energy values for two different ...
Design2Data part of CUREnet:Institutes:Other Institutes (2019-2020):Examples
The D2D program is centered around an undergraduate-friendly protocol workflow that follows the design-build-test-learn engineering framework. This protocol has served as the scaffold for a successful undergraduate training program and has been further developed into courses that range from a 10-week freshman seminar to a year-long, upper-division molecular biology course. The overarching research goal of this CURE probes the current predictive limitations of protein-modeling software by functionally characterizing single amino acid mutants in a robust model system. The most interesting outcomes of this project are dependent on large datasets, and, as such, the project is optimal for multi-institutional collaborations.
Chemical Kinetics lab part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2023:Activities
"Iodine Clock" refers to a group of reactions which involve the mixing of two colorless solutions to produce a solution which remains colorless for a precise amount of time, then suddenly changes to a ...
Botanical Transect Mapping part of E-STEM:Field Course:ESTEM-PD Activities
Students gain experience "reading" landscapes using geologic, hydrological, and botanical/ecological techniques. They learn two simple and widely used methods for quantitatively measuring the density of ...
Particulate Matter Impact on the Lungs and on Communities part of Curriculum for the Bioregion:Activities
Students apply biology to a case study about the disproportionate effects of particulate matter pollution on people living in historically redlined areas. These issues are introduced with a scientific paper and popular news articles, after which students explore United States Environmental Protection Agency pollutant data and maps of historically redlined areas in a free online ArcGIS app. Students use what they have learned to talk with a family member or friend about these issues and to devise an action plan for protecting themselves and their communities from particulate matter pollution during wildfire smoke events.

DNA cloning and protein analysis of animal-heme peroxidase within collagen IV of the extracellular matrix part of CUREnet:Institutes:Hampton University:Hampton CURE Examples
This CURE is to expose undergraduate students to the process of DNA cloning to identify the critical amino acids of the animal-heme peroxidase,peroxidasin, responsible for catalyzing sulfilimine bond formation within collagen IV of the basement membrane. Students will bioengineer a variety of mutants through primer design and polymerase chain reactions that contain point mutations within the immunoglobulin domain of the peroxidasin.
Laser spectroscopy of atmospherically relevant molecules and clusters in helium nanodroplets part of CUREnet:Institutes:Other Institutes (2019-2020):Examples
Superfluid helium nanodroplets present an ideal medium for the study of chemical dynamics at the molecular level. Their low temperature, enormous heat conductivity, and weakly interacting nature allow for the investigation of various things, such as how molecular rotation is effected by a solvent, and how molecules interact with each other. These two topics will be addressed in the lab by (1) measuring the spectra of unexplored molecules in helium nanodroplets and determining their rotational constants; this data will then be used to test known models describing the interaction between the molecule and helium solvent, and (2) synthesizing and characterizing unexplored molecular clusters in an effort to better understand molecular solvation; students will solvate the "unexplored molecule" with an atmospherically relevant species (O2, N2, H2O), and investigate the resulting clusters with laser Stark spectroscopy.

Systems Thinking and Civic Engagement for Climate Justice in General Chemistry: CO2 and PM 2.5 Pollution from Coal Combustion part of Curriculum for the Bioregion:Activities
Students apply chemistry to a climate justice case study using a systems thinking perspective in class and discuss the connections between chemistry and climate justice in a conversation with a community outside of the classroom for civic engagement. The instructor offers formative feedback during class time and in response to discussion posts. Feedback is meant to build understanding and application of concepts important to learning chemistry within a systems thinking context and using civic engagement to communicate how chemistry relates to climate justice.
