  • Tatiana Dolgushina Exploring Immigrant Identity Through Poetry
    Tatiana Dolgushina is writing her history through poetry as a way to understand herself and the country she came from that no longer exists. Born in Soviet Russia, Tatiana and her family fled the country after it collapsed in 1991. Central to her work are ideas of identity formation and childhood displacement. Through writing, she is digging deeper into her experience as an immigrant growing up in multiple countries.

  • Jeana Moody Sticks and Stones May Break my Bones, and Words Might Unintentionally Enforce Gendered Behavior
    Jeana Moody is a second year Masters student in Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies working with Professor Bradley Boovy. Her thesis research focuses on the use and impact of gendered words and phrases in the English language, such as "throw like a girl", "man up", and "don’t be a bitch." What are the implications of saying "man up" to someone who presents as a woman? As a man? Does the gender of the speaker play a role? Hosted by: Kristen Finch and Maggie Exton

  • Lisa Hildebrand Kayaks and Computers: The Gray Whale Research Essentials
    Gray whales migrate northward up the Oregon Coast every year, but some of them hang out there all summer to feed. Lisa Hildebrand, a first year masters student in Wildlife Science, discusses how she evaluates their diets, how plastic might travel up the food chain, and how kayaking with whales can help get high school kids interested in science. Hosted by Heather Forsythe and Scott Klasek.

  • Dan Breysse Treating the Cancer Treatment: An Investigation into a Chemotherapy Drug’s Toxic Product
    Doxorubicin is a common cancer therapy drug that destroys cancer cells, but in the process, creates a cardio-toxic byproduct, doxorubicinol. Dan Breysse is finishing up his master’s degree in Biochemistry and Biophyics, and during his time here has investigated the mechanism that results in this toxicity. Doxorubicinol is created with the help of an unknown enzyme or group of enzymes, and Dan has helped to confirm that one potential enzyme is involved. As this process becomes more clear, addtional drugs can be designed to prevent toxicity while keeping the anti-tumor properties of doxorubicin. Hosted by Heather Forsythe and Lillian Padgitt-Cobb.

  • Holly Horan Applying Medical Anthropology: A History of Stress in Puerto Rico and its Impacts on Birth Outcomes
    Over the course of the last six years, Holly Horan, a doctoral candidate in the Applied Anthropology program at Oregon State University, has developed and carried out a course of research culminating in the largest-ever study measuring perceived and biological maternal stress during and after pregnancy in Puerto Rico. By combining in-depth interviews with Puerto Rican mothers with quantitative analysis of perceived stress and the stress hormone cortisol during each stage of pregnancy, Holly has gained insights into both the perceived and the physiological components of maternal stress that have potential to impact birth outcomes (in particular, timing of birth). Hosted by Adrian Gallo & Daniel Watkins.

  • Daniel Watkins Testing Arctic Climate Models: How Much Detail Can We Capture?
    Arctic sea ice is decreasing quickly as temperatures throughout the region continue to rise. Daniel Watkins, a PhD student in the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, discusses how he analyzes climate model output and temperature and sea ice data from specific sites across the Arctic. This will allow him to assess how accurate Arctic climate models are at finer-scale resolutions, and shed light on what this means for Arctic communities that depend on sea ice and marine wildlife for their livelihoods.

  • Katarina Lunde Finding Hope in Invaded Spaces
    Katarina studied plants and plant systematics at Oberlin College where she obtained a bachelor’s degree in biology and creative writing. With student loans to pay off and a desire to find a career that fit her unique abilities and interests, Katarina spent six years working in fine dining and exploring future career paths in Seattle, WA, volunteering with various non-profits. Through her restoration program internship with the Nature Consortium, she was finally able to hone-in on the field of plant ecology. Katarina is currently nearing the end of her master’s program and seeks to apply her newly learned skills in an urban conservation and restoration setting, where she can continue to ask questions and interact with her work in a tangible way. Hosted by Lillian Padget-Cobb & Lauri Lutes.

  • Claire Revekant Core Strategies for Conservation of Greater Sage-Grouse
    The Greater Sage-Grouse is a near-threatened species that lives exclusively in Sagebrush habitats. Wyoming has designated large ’Core Areas’ for its protection, but populations are in declining in certain areas. Claire Revekant, a Master’s student in the Department of Animal and Rangeland Sciences, suspects this could be related to human built structures within and outside of Core Areas that may attract predator avian and mammalian species. Tune in to hear her explain an interconnected story about predation and land use policy. Hosted by: Kristen Finch and Scott Klasek.

About Inspiration Dissemination

From the publisher's feed

Inspiration Dissemination is an award-winning radio program that occurs Sunday nights at 7PM Pacific on KBVR Corvallis, 88.7FM. Each week on the program, we host a different graduate student worker from Oregon State University to talk about their lives and passion for research here at the university. By presenting these stories, we can present the diverse, human element of graduate research that is often hidden from the public view.
