Gigapan of the Easton Ave & Somerset St intersection on the College Avenue Campus at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ.
This Gigapan was created by Group 9 in the Spring 2009 Information Visualization class at Rutgers. Our Gigapans are part of a project known as "whereRU", which integrates various imaging technologies, such as Gigapan and Photosynth, into a comprehensive visual system for intimate exploration far beyond anything else available today. For a truly unique Rutgers experience, visit http://whereru.rutgers.edu to see more Gigapans and Photosynths from the whereRU project. |

This Gigapan focuses on the famous Rutgers "Grease Trucks" which occupy the northwest corner of College Ave and Hamilton St in New Brunswick, NJ. It was taken 12feb09 as part of an Information Visualization project known as whereRU and focuses on the College Ave campus of Rutgers University as a whole.

Chimeric Viruses Expressing HIV-1 Co-Receptor CCR5 Sequence as Potential AIDS Vaccine Components. Presenter: Sonya Malani Advisor: Dr. Gail Ferstandig Arnold Center for Advanced Biotechnology and Medicine, Piscataway, NJ CCR5 is a co-receptor found on white blood cells called T-helper lymphocytes that is crucial to HIV infection. The envelope protein gp120 on HIV binds to the T-helper lymphocyte at the primary receptor, CD4, causing a conformational change in gp120 that enables it to then bind to CCR5, thereby infecting the cell. Previous studies have shown that people who are homozygous for the deletion of CCR5 are healthy individuals who are safe from infection, despite the fact that they may engage in risky behaviors. CCR5 is also highly conserved, making it an ideal target for HIV/AIDS vaccine research. The CCR5 sequence that is used in this project is derived from its second extracellular loop, a region that has shown great promise for efficient antibody binding. Human rhinovirus type 14 (HRV14), which causes the common cold, is used as a vector to display a variety of foreign sequences that code for HIV-1 co-receptor CCR5. The resulting virus, containing sequences of both HRV14 and CCR5, is being constructed in order to elicit an immune response and consequently produce antibodies against CCR5. This is being done in hopes that the antibodies will prevent HIV from binding to CCR5, thereby preventing infection. |

Full Title: Conception Rates of Estrus-synchronized Dairy Heifers in Three Different Breeding Protocols Abstract: New approaches to estrus detection are aimed at providing automated detection of standing heat in dairy cattle using electronic technology, so as to eliminate labor-intensive daily behavioral observations. Bovine activity and movement increase significantly when the female comes into estrus. This provides an opportunity for electronic activity monitoring to replace time-consuming behavioral observations. We hypothesized that insemination of 36 estrus-synchronized heifers based on measurement of activity or observation of estrus will yield higher rates of conception than breeding based on fixed-time insemination. All heifers in the study were fitted with motion-sensing activity monitor collars which collect and transmit data into a computer program, HeatimeĀ®. The heifers were randomly assigned to three treatment groups. Group B (n=13) was inseminated based on three times daily observation for behavioral estrus; Group H (n=11), based on notification of peak activity by HeatimeĀ®; and Group T (n=12), fixed time. Twenty-two heifers were confirmed pregnant at 39 days by ultrasound. Our hypothesis was not supported, as Group B heifers tended to exhibit a higher conception rate than both Group H and Group T heifers. Results suggest that observation of behavioral estrus is more reliable than both HeatimeĀ® automated estrus detection and fixed-time insemination.
