Vladimir da Costa is a Texas A&M University graduate student in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, department of soil and crop sciences. ìMy research focuses on the feasibility of using an anti-ethylene compound to counter the effects of stress on physiological and agronomic parameters of cotton,î da Costa said.
Occurrence of stress at key physiological stages of crop growth can profoundly impact yield and related components of cotton and other crops, he said.
ìI am pursuing both field and greenhouse studies to examine the impact of water stress and synthetic ethylene on plant ethylene production, photosynthetic machinery efficiency, carbon partitioning, plant growth and development, yield components, seed number and size, and fiber quality, among others of cotton plants.î
Da Costa is studying under the direction of Dr. Tom Cothren.

Dr. Kevin Burgess' research lab in chemistry
Glove box (Ye Zhu)
This graduate student is handling air sensitive catalysts in a glove box. The catalysts are being used to synthesize complex compounds, especially ones of medicinal interest. They are being developed in the labs of Dr. Kevin Burgess, Department of Chemistry, College of Science, Texas A&M University. Dr. Burgess is the Rachel Professor of Chemistry at Texas A&M University. His research interests focus on peptidomimetics for mimicking or disrupting protein-protein interactions, development of asymmetric organometallics catalysts for syntheses of valuable chirons, and fluorescent dyes for applications in biotechnology.

The eighth annual Texas A&M Workshop in the History of Books and Printing will take place May 17-22, 2009, in the Cushing Memorial Library and Archives. This five-day workshop provides an intensive, hands-on introduction to the history of books and printing. The workshop is intended for librarians, archivists, students, teachers, collectors, and private individuals who have an interest in the first three and a half centuries of the printed book. The course consists of a unique combination of labs and seminars designed to provide students with practical experience, as well as a broad historical survey of the field. The lab sessions will concentrate on printing in the hand press era and its allied technologies--typecasting, papermaking, bookbinding, illustration, and ink-making. During these sessions, students will have the opportunity to cast type in a hand mould. They will also set type, prepare it for the press, and print on a period-accurate common press. The seminar sessions will provide a chronological survey of book and printing history, with the collections of Cushing Memorial Library providing examples of some of the most significant artifacts and books in the history of recorded culture. These classes will begin chronologically with Mesopotamian clay tablets and medieval manuscripts, before focusing on developments in the hand press era.
