Mariah's Story – Graduate Series
Transcript
00:00 >> I'm a pretty hard worker.
00:02 It's like a huge personal drive to me.
00:05 I've always told myself to try,
00:08 and be better than I was yesterday.
00:10 My name is Mariah Gleeson,
00:11 and I'm a masters students studying exercise science.
00:14 One of the reasons I chose Oakland University was to
00:17 relocate back to Michigan and be closer to my family.
00:20 I never expected to be a graduate student,
00:23 but I gained a lot of insight from my mentors,
00:26 and they've always pushed me to get a graduate degree.
00:30 They're getting their PhDs, and they're professors.
00:33 So they all encouraged me because they enjoyed the field,
00:36 and I also enjoy the field.
00:37 I knew if I stopped school after my undergrad,
00:40 I wouldn't be able to get back into it,
00:43 and that made me want to continue to graduate school.
00:46 One of the things at Oakland University I discovered was that I love to
teach,
00:53 and I want to get my PhD to contribute to research.
00:56 I like being there for the students,
00:58 and I want them to have a valuable learning experience.
01:00 If you're on the fence to get a graduate degree,
01:03 I say if you really love the field,
01:06 then pursue it.
01:07 [MUSIC]

Sarah Denha, Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 5 - Research Series
Transcript
00:02 Sarah Denha, Ph.D. Student Department of Chemistry
00:07 The Research: SpinoCerebellar Ataxia Type five is a rare neurodegenerative
disease that causes neuron degeneration in the cerebellum.
00:16 It causes uncoordinated body movements, slurred speech and abnormal eye
movements.
00:24 The Focus: Researchers like Sarah and Dr. Avery are focused on
understanding how mutations in a protein called β-III-spectrin lead to the
development of the disease.
00:36 The Science: To study this disease, Avery’s Lab uses fruit flies as a
model to understand the impact of β-III-spectrin mutations on the dendritic
arborization of neurons.
00:45 Dendritic arborization is a process by which neurons create new synapses
vital to healthy brain activity and function.
00:55 Healthy neuron, diseased neuron.
01:02 The Goal: Researchers hope to discover the mechanism by how these
mutations cause the disease so they can create treatments and eventually cure
the disease.
