Hello Science Fans!
Are you excited to learn about the research done by our finalists for the SHE-ensya thesis grant this year?
From studies about colorectal cancer and possible treatments using indigenous plants, to the identification of invasive fish in Pantabangan Dam, and the improvements of copper coating, our SHE-roes certainly have amazing research up ahead. Without further ado, I’m happy to present our 2024 finalists!
Finalist 1 - Yannikka Bata and Jeremiah John Urbi
Thesis Title: Determining the Apoptotic Inducing Property of Embelia sp. on HT-29 Colorectal Cancer Cell Line Using 2D and 3D Cell Culture Methods
Abstract:
This study explores the apoptotic-inducing activity of Embelia sp. ethanolic extract on HT-29 colorectal cancer cell lines using 2D and 3D cultures. It aims to provide data that could contribute to the success of drug development programs in the Philippines.
Finalist 2 - April Mae Mangahas, John Maverick Cruz, Mike Christian Sindayen, and Pacifico Villalino IV
Thesis Title: Profiling of Invasive Ichthyofaunal Species in Pantabangan Dam through DNA Barcoding
Abstract:
This research profiles invasive fish species in Pantabangan Dam using DNA barcoding. The findings will aid in developing efficient management strategies for these invasive species.
Finalist 3 - Patricia Mae Ludovice
Thesis Title: Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Treatment Of Copper Surface For Enhanced Corrosion Resistance
Abstract:
This study examines the impact of atmospheric pressure plasma treatment on copper surfaces to enhance corrosion resistance. It offers novel insights into low-cost, environment-friendly corrosion prevention methods.
Amazing, right?
