description: Training shelter dogs to be family dogs
description: There are millions of animals that are surrendered to shelters every year.  Of the number of dogs that enter these shelters, about 60% of them will be euthanized.  DAggER- The Dog Aggression Elimination at Rutgers University training program is an organization that wants to give animals in shelters a second chance in hopes to reduce the number of animals euthanized each year.  Many dogs that are surrendered to shelters for aggressive behavior can be trained appropriately to live happily in a home as a wonderful family companion.  The goal of The Dog Aggression Elimination at Rutgers is to target aggressive shelter dogs, and train them to be loyal, safe pets through professional training and student participation. DAggER service project is to promote a training program through Rutgers University to promote the adoption of aggressive dogs and re-train animals so they can live comfortably in a good home.  We believe that all shelter dogs can be trained to be family dogs.

description: The dog birth certificate legislation will enforce every dog’s PIN, license and microchip number with a state agency for the safety of the pet and owner.
description: The dog birth certificate legislation would alleviate the trouble that owners have to go through when buying a new pet.  The pet’s father and mother would be registered with the state so that any previously identified genetic or hereditary diseases would be available to the new owners.  The dog’s PIN number that would be identified on the birth certificate would also be the license number of the dog and the microchip number if the owner chooses to use this technology.  This legislation would hopefully allow owner’s to have a thorough understanding of their new pet’s background as well as a registration of their animal’s ownership and proof of the sale of their pet.

Muntiacus putaoensis
French: Muntjac de Putao / German: Burma-Muntjak / Spanish: Muntiaco de Putao
Taxonomy. Muntiacus putaoensis Amato, Egan & Rabinowitz, 1999,
Atanga, Putao (Myanmar). It belongs to the rooseveltorum species complex. The name comes from its diminutive size, small enough to be wrapped in a leaf of Phrynium. Monotypic.
Distribution. NE India and N Myanmar.
Descriptive notes. Few measurements available. Shoulder height 40 cm, weight 12 kg. Males and females of equal size. Smallest of the muntjacs, with short pedicles about 3 cm long, tiny unbranched antlers 1-4 cm in length, often hidden by fur. Coat reddishbrown, legs and face slightly darker. The tail is orange-red dorsally. Preorbital fossa relatively large. Females have prominent upper canines. Fawns possibly unspotted.
Habitat. Forest-dweller, it has been recorded from 700 m to 1200 m above sea level.
Food and Feeding. It feeds on browse and fruit. Stomach contents examined from specimens in Myanmar revealed mainly fruit remains.
Breeding. Both pregnant and lactating females have been taken in May, in Myanmar.
Activity patterns. Nothing is known, but similar muntjacs are frequently crepuscular, with others both diurnal and nocturnal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. Nothing is known.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Data Deficient on The IUCN Red List for the lack of certainty about morphology, taxonomy, distribution, and ecology. Evidence of persistent hunting by local people suggests that numbers may be decreasing.

description: As uncommon as dog fighting may seem, communities all across the country must be vigilant in raising awareness to the issue.
description: According to the ASPCA, dog fighting arrests in the United States have numbered in the thousands between 2003 and 2008.  There are certainly many more cases that are never discovered.  The types of people involved in dog fighting or those who participate in the audience are a diverse group not limited to urban settings.  Other illegal crimes that are associated with dog fighting include but are not limited to drug, alcohol, money laundering, and weapon violations.  Aside from the criminal aspects, the toll that the fighting takes on the animals involved is nothing less than horrendous.  Rehabilitation is expensive and difficult and many dogs must be euthanized as a result.  Along with the felony charges that New Jersey holds for the crime of dog fighting, it should also include the penalty of being required in a registry.  This registration process could be a law that is modeled after Megan’s Law where sexual offenders must register in the area in which they reside.  Our idea has been sent to two senators from the state of New Jersey in order to complete our service project.

description: Saving the NJ Horse Racing Industry
description: Horse racing has been a long standing popular entertainment sport in New Jersey that dates back as early as the late eighteen hundreds. This sport, which features thoroughbreds racing around the track and Standardbreds pulling sulkies around the oval, has been a popular past time for all ages and has served as a means of gambling for those who do not want to travel to Atlantic City. Recently however, the state government has decided that "the state can no longer sustain the subsidy [that has been] give[n] to the Standardbred industry and the racetrack[s]," additionally they believe that “adding slot machines or other gaming to racetracks would be harmful to the efforts to revive Atlantic City,” and that “setting up competition inside the state [such as additional support of the horse racing industry] is counterproductive to getting Atlantic City back on its feet. The lack of government backing and the withdrawal of the subsidies usually given to the racetracks in agreement that they don’t install slot machines and betting tables has substantially hurt the racetracks profits and has contributed to the downward spiral of the horse racing industry in New Jersey. If the horse racing industry in the state were to go under it would take with it New Jersey’s agriculture, its farmland, and other equine infrastructure. During our recent attempts to find alternative ways to preserve the horse racing industry, other than relying on government support, we discovered that the advertising aspect for the two main tracks in New Jersey, Monmouth Park and the Meadowlands, is severely lacking. To combat this issue we have developed creative and affordable advertising schemes that would attract additional patrons to the racing tracks. The influx of new visitors to the tracks will increase track revenue and redeem the tracks from their destitute states.

description: Animal and Environmentally friendly shelter design
description: The well being of domestic animals is often endangered in today’s society because of the lack of resources to care for abused or abandoned animals. Caring for animals while at the same time remaining environmentally conscientious was the goal of the community service. As such, we designed a green animal shelter that took into consideration everything from the laws regarding animal shelters, to the acoustics in the facility, to the directionality of the building itself, and, of course, to environmentally friendly energy options like solar power and incorporating a green roof. In doing this we learned a tremendous amount about the intricacies of designing a facility. Particularly with regards to the amenities that all animals must have like kennel space, exercise, and veterinary care. Also, in making it a green facility we also learned an extraordinary amount about alternative energy solutions that can be used in just about any working building.

description: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in men and women in the United States. New therapies are needed for lung cancer to either prevent or treat its spread throughout the body. This research focuses on boosting the immune system against lung cancer by using specialized immune enhancing cells called dendritic cells. This new form of therapy uses dendritic cells that are removed from the blood, activated in test tubes, and then injected into lung tumors. We have found that this form of therapy is able to completely cure mice with cancer. This research focuses on testing the safety and immune-enhancing capacity of dendritic cell immunotherapy for patients with lung cancer. Thus, results of this study may have a major impact on the treatment of lung cancer.

description: The ethical growth and production of GMOs for human consumption, with a focus on regulation, best practices, and raising public awareness
description: Genetically modified organisms are at the forefront of modern agriculture and causing significant controversy. The ethical dilemma arises from the risks that come with the growth and production of GM plants and animals, which due to the novelty of the science may not be fully understood. It is important then to understand the risks involved and how best to minimize them with best management practices in agriculture and government regulation. It is also of great importance that the public be aware of the potential risks and benefits of GMOs in order to make an educated decision regarding them. We hope to accomplish this by creating a fact sheet to submit to the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station that provides an overview of the science behind genetic modification, the prevalence of GMOs, the benefits, the risks, and the ways these risks are minimized.

description: Amending New Jersey Species Restriction, Bans, and Requirements
description: The purpose of this whole project was to attempt to make a difference or at least get a better understanding of the issues surrounding the banning of owning certain kinds of exotic pets. Julie’s original concern went back to her not being able to transport her pet bird and lizard, Bearded Dragon, under her seat with her on a plane. Instead the airline insisted they be kept in storage beneath which can be extremely stressful especially for the bird, which is an African Gray Parrot, a species known for being extremely intelligent but also at the same time, very sensitive. My (Chris) issue had more to do with private responsible owners not being legally allowed to own certain species that really have no obvious reason for being unfit pets in the state of New Jersey. The species I was particularly focused on were salamanders belonging to the genus, amystoma. Their common names are the Tiger Salamander and the Axolotl. The first action we took to gain more information about transportation regulations and ownership regulations was to make a trip over to Hamburg, Pennsylvania to attend a reptile show, http://www.hamburgreptileshow.com/ , which is held there every other month. Reptile shows are gatherings for pet reptile enthusiasts to congregate, buy, trade, sell or just observe captive reptiles and other exotic pets. An educational seminar was also given on exotic animals, their ownership requirements, and their regulations. Editorials were submitted to Reptiles Magazine in an attempt to make the public aware of the regulations and bans on exotic animals in New Jersey.
Implementation of tobacco programs in Calif schools

description: Data from the California Tobacco Surveys show that the prevalence of smoking among youth 12-17 years old has not declined. It did not change from 1990 to 1993, and it increased significantly from 1993 to 1996. These trends suggest that more effective prevention approaches for youth in California are needed.

 The proposed study is designed to investigate tobacco use prevention programs in California’s schools. Despite the fact that school-based prevention programs are a key element of the state’s tobacco control approach, we know surprisingly little about the actual programs that schools are implementing, the extent to which these programs have features of effective programs, the factors associated with implementation of effective programs, and the relationships between program outcomes and implementation.

 This study proposes to fill this gap by analyzing existing data on school-based tobacco use prevention programs from the Independent Evaluation of the California Tobacco Control Program and collecting new data from a sub-sample of California schools. The data sets to be analyzed include samples of teachers (n=1120), school principals (n=188), school district tobacco coordinators (n=53), and youth in grades 5, 8, and 10 (n=33,000) from 192 schools in 84 school districts in California. These data were collected at two points in time, during the 1996-97 and 1997-98 school years. New data will be collected from telephone surveys of school district staff and site visits to a sample of schools with effective tobacco prevention programs.

 The purposes of the study are:

 1) to estimate the extent to which effective classroom tobacco use prevention curricula have been adopted and implemented across the state;

 2) to determine the extent to which the implementation of effective prevention programs differs across schools by characteristics such as school size and students’ socio-economic status;

 3) to investigate the extent to which the implementation of effective prevention programs differs across schools by various organizational, program, and provider characteristics;

 4) to investigate associations between implementation of effective classroom curricula and program outcomes; and

 5) to examine school and school district decision-making processes that lead to adoption and institutionalization of effective prevention programs.

 The results of the study could be helpful in developing strategies for disseminating information about effective school-based tobacco prevention approaches, and encouraging schools to adopt and implement them.

It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we manage stress, relate to others, and make choices and changes in our patient’s presentation.

Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood, adolescence, through into adulthood. People can experience mental health problems, which could affect their thinking, mood, and behavior. (www.mentalhealth.org.uk). In this article I share my experience and explain why I am an advocate for MHFA.

description: Although it is well appreciated that nicotine is a very addictive substance, the exact reasons for its addictive nature remain elusive. Evidence suggests that stress in general, and stress hormones such as corticosterone and cortisol in particular, can modulate nicotine intake. However, the relationship between stress and nicotine use is not well defined.

 For the first two series of studies, we propose to assess the relationship among stress, stress hormones (corticosterone in particular) and nicotine self-administration using an animal model. This modeling will allow us to determine how easy or difficult it is to start or stop the self-administration nicotine. At the same time, we will study the relationship between blood levels of corticosterone and self-administration of nicotine, as well as determine the corticosterone response to the intake of nicotine and to nicotine withdrawal.

 The next series of studies will determine the effects of prior stressors on nicotine self-administration. We will measure the levels of corticosterone and the corticosterone response to nicotine and determine if these are related to the degree or pattern of nicotine self-administration.

 Finally, studies suggest that smoking is increased in humans exposed to stressful experiences early in life (Anda et al 1999). Accordingly, we will determine if neonatal exposure can produce permanent changes in the regulation of the corticosterone secretion that may also effect adult nicotine self-administration.

 Taken together, the results of the proposed studies should help us to understand if, how, and to what extent, prior stress, occurring either during adulthood or during early development, effects nicotine self-administration. The results should help us to devise new strategies to prevent and treat nicotine abuse.

description: Are mission is to better serve the environment by creating beautiful landscaping while being environmentally sensitive.
description: Fertilizer runoff in today’s environment is becoming a bigger problem than it once was.  The cause of all this is that more people are fertilizing their home lawns along with stronger fertilizer compounds are being produced.  The nitrogen from fertilizers is eventually converted by bacteria in the soil to nitrates. These nitrates can be leached into the groundwater or be washed out of the soil surface into streams and rivers. High nitrate levels in drinking water are considered to be dangerous to human health.  Phosphorus cannot be readily washed out of the soil, but is bound to soil particles and moves together with them. Phosphorus can therefore be washed into surface waters together with the soil that is being eroded. The phosphorus is not considered to be dangerous, but it stimulates the growth of algae in slow moving water. These algae eventually die and decompose, removing the oxygen from the water causing fish kills. This process is called eutrophication.  Our service project involved getting the public, emphasizing the students at Rutgers, aware of the potential effects that excessive fertilizers can have on the environment.  We set up a table with information at the Rutgers Student Center on College Ave.  As people passed our table they would stop and read about fertilizer and we would answer any questions that they had on the issue.  Most students didn’t know much about the effect they were having on the environment.  After our time was up we as a group filled fulfilled as people as we were able to help educated others and spread the word on how to help save the environment and cut down on the impact humans are having on the earth.

description: The effect portion sizes have had on the obesity epidemic, and how the Volumetrics Diet might be a way to downsize.
description: The rise in obesity has been do to many contributing factors including lack of exercise, unhealthy eating, uneducated individuals, our nation’s fast paced lifestyle, and portion sizes.  There is also some scientific evidence that the cause of obesity may also have some genetic factors.  Obesity has slowly been on the rise and approximately 200 million adults are considered to be overweight or obese in this country.  According to the Center for Disease Control, obesity is the second preventable leading cause of death only to smoking.  One of the largest contributors to obesity is the size of the portions we consume, not only at home, but also in restaurants and in prepared foods.  By providing the community with an educational poster about correct portion sizes, individuals will learn how to cut back on the amount of food they are consuming.  The poster will not only be available to individuals on the web, but also as an educational tool for teachers to display to their children within the classroom.

Effects of prenatal nicotine exposure on nicotinic receptors

description: Cigarette smoking is a highly addictive behavior. The chemical in cigarettes that gives tobacco users their “kick” is nicotine, and this chemical has a number of effects on the brain. The target of nicotine is a family of protein molecules called “nicotinic receptors.” The real purpose of these molecules isn’t to respond to nicotine but rather to respond to a chemical “transmitter” that some nerve cells in the brain use to communicate with each other. Nicotine interferes with this communication, enhancing some connections between nerve cells and depressing others. Nicotine has both rapidly-acting and long term effects on its receptors; it is the long term effects that probably lead to our becoming addicted to nicotine. To understand these effects, it is important to study the receptor molecules with which nicotine interacts. I am doing this by looking at whether long-term exposure to nicotine changes the number of receptors in the brain and whether it alters the way those receptors work. I will expose rats at around the time of birth to low levels of nicotine for a few weeks, to mimic the exposure they might have received if their mother had “smoked.” I will then examine the nicotinic receptors in these rats to learn how they have been affected by this long-term exposure to nicotine. This research will hopefully tell us more about the effects of maternal smoking on the unborn child.
