a word from the dean - messiah university

A Word from the Dean

In this 15th Annual Symposium of the School of Science, Engineering and Health, our faculty, staff and students continue the strong tradition of showcasing student and faculty innovation, creativity, and productivity in academic departments from the fields of science, engineering and health.

Basic and applied research in science and health fields stem from curiosity, acquired skill, and a desire to test and improve processes from foundational principles. The outcomes of scientific research expand intellectual understanding and have tremendous impact on quality of life, environmental health and human flourishing.

Each of our students comes to Messiah College as an amateur in his or her field(s) and graduates as a young professional, competent in his or her discipline and understanding what it means to worship and serve the Lord through vocation. We are pleased to celebrate their accomplishments today.

Dr. Angela C. Hare Dean of the School of Science, Engineering and Health

Special Thanks

Thank you to Holly Myers, Administrative Assistant to the Dean of the School of Science, Engineering and Health, for coordinating room reservations, catering, and setup of the Symposium venues. Special thanks also to D. Scott Weaver, Chair of the Department of Computer and Information Science, for development and maintenance of the Symposium Project Registration and Management system (SymPRM) used to collect and organize the information contained in this booklet.

John Harms & Tim Van Dyke Symposium Coordinators

to the 15th Annual Symposium of the School of Science, Engineering and Health! This event continues a strong tradition showcasing student and faculty innovation, creativity and productivity

Messiah College

Welcome to Messiah College!

Visitor Parking: Parking is provided in the main Visitor Parking lot (VV) accessed from College Avenue, between Old Main and the Eisenhower Campus Center. Parking tags are not required during the Symposium. While designated handicapped parking is distributed throughout campus, spots closest to Symposium venues are available in the employee parking lots behind the Jordan Science Center (WW) and in the circle at the heart of campus (YY).

Dining facilities: The Lottie Nelson Dining Hall (upper level) and The Falcon (lower level; soup, paninis, salads) are located in the Eisenhower Campus Center. The Union Café (pizza, grill, wraps, salads) is located in the Larsen Student Union.

Using this Booklet 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 Sessions.

Authorship: All contributing co‐authors and mentors are listed in the Program (page 10) and Abstract section (page 36). Bold font indicates the names of presenting authors. An Index at the end of the booklet (page 76) lists the names of all authors alphabetically with the number(s) of each presentation on which each is included.

Program & Symbols: Presentations in Engineering, Computer & Information Science, Mathematics, and Physics are organized in discipline‐specific sessions. Presentations in the Biological Sciences, Chemistry & Biochemistry, Exercise Science, Nutrition & Dietetics, Adventure Education, and Biopsychology are organized in integrated sessions to encourage cross‐disciplinary exposure with the Natural Sciences. Posters in Evidence‐Based Nursing Care will be highlighted in a dedicated poster venue (page 23). Throughout the Program and “Schedule at a Glance,” unique symbols designate the various disciplines.

Abstracts: Abstracts for each oral and poster presentation in the Symposium are arranged by Presentation Number.

Acknowledgments: All faculty mentors, external mentors and collaborators, and nursing professionals are recognized. Sources of financial and material support are also listed (page 34) with corresponding presentation numbers.

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 two‐fold 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 fellowships

provide housing, meals and a stipend supporting full‐time research employment – forty

hours per week – for between five and ten weeks of the summer.
