This Program and Abstract booklet provides times, locations and titles for all presentations in
the Symposium. A consolidated “Schedule at a Glance” (page 4) summarizes the schedule of all
Oral Presentations and Poster Presentations (page 6).
Presentation Number: Each presentation has been assigned a unique Presentation Number
based on its order in the schedule. To allow for cross-referencing, this number is used
throughout the booklet to identify the presentation and will be displayed with each poster to
aid your navigation during the Poster Session.
Authorship: All contributing co-authors and
Authorship Legend:
mentors are listed in the Program (page 10) and
bold indicates a presenting author
Abstract section (page 36). Bold font indicates
† indicates a research or project mentor
the names of presenting authors. An Index at
‡ indicates an off-campus contributor
the end of the booklet (page 87) lists the names
of all authors alphabetically with the number(s) of each presentation on which each is included.

“Cleft”
Dedication 12:30 PM, Jordan/Kline Entrance
A Sculpture Tribute to the Life and Work of
Professor Emeritus, Karl Oberholser, Ph.D.
Dr. Karl Oberholser, Professor Emeritus, served on the faculty at Messiah College from
1976 to 2010, teaching courses in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry and
biochemistry. He taught many students who would soon attest to the strong
preparation they had received for continued study in medical or graduate school. Dr.
O’s passion was for the three-dimensional representation of the structure and function
of important biological molecules, especially proteins. He was a contributor to
Proteopedia, a database for such structures and animations and regularly included
students in the preparation of these visualization tools. “Cleft” is a commissioned work
created by Messiah College alum and artist, Brian Menkis. It presents myoglobin, one of
the proteins for which Professor Oberholser created interactive computerized
animations. After binding oxygen in the cleft,
myoglobin carries it through muscle tissue. We are
grateful for Dr. Oberholser’s life and legacy.
Karl Oberholser, Ph.D. is shown
beside a computer displaying an
image of a three dimensional protein
modeled using Proteopedia.
The sculpture “Cleft” depicts a three dimensional
model of the protein myoglobin which stores and
transports oxygen within tissues and cells. One
molecule of oxygen binds to the myoglobin within
the deep pocket known as the “cleft”.

The Collaboratory
for Strategic Partnerships and Applied Research
Service today… servant-leaders tomorrow.
The Collaboratory is a center for applied research and project-based learning in the
School of Science, Engineering and Health at Messiah College. We add value to
classroom learning by enabling participants to apply academic knowledge and live out
their Christian faith through imaginative, hands-on problem solving that meets needs
brought to us by Christian mission, relief and development organizations and
businesses. The twofold mission of the Collaboratory is:

To foster justice, empower the poor, promote peace, and care for the earth
through applications of our academic and professional disciplines.

To increase the academic and professional abilities of participants, their
vocational vision for lifelong servant-leadership, and their courage to act on
convictions.
Areas of engagement include science, engineering, health, information technology,
business, and education. Our projects enable students to engage classroom
fundamentals in an authentic client-provider environment. Student leaders run the
Collaboratory organization in partnership with the educators who mentor them. As God
enables us to serve others today, we seek to grow as disciples of Jesus, to serve as God's
stewards over the resources of our academic and professional disciplines, and to bear
witness to the good news of the Kingdom of God.
To learn more about the Messiah College Collaboratory for Strategic Partnerships and
Applied Research please visit our web site at www.messiah.edu/collaboratory.

Steinbrecher Undergraduate Summer
Research Program
The Steinbrecher Endowment for Research in the Health and Life Sciences was
established at Messiah College in 2003 by Dr. Leroy and Mrs. Eunice
Steinbrecher to support collaborative experimental research between students
and faculty. Dr. Steinbrecher (Class of 1955) was a physician and longtime
supporter of Messiah College. Eunice (Class of 1958) has served on the Board of
Trustees at Messiah College continuously since 1987 and as chairperson of the
board for 10 years (2000 – 2010).
The Steinbrecher Undergraduate Summer Research Program provides “heads-on,
hands-on” research experiences essential to our School’s efforts to offer premier
undergraduate health and science programs.
The research must be
experimental and collaborative in nature. Awarded on a competitive basis, the
Steinbrecher scholarships provide housing, meals and a stipend supporting fulltime research employment – forty hours per week – for between five and ten
weeks of the summer.
