Intussusception is an uncommon problem in the adult population. Interestingly, it is also a rare late complication after gastric bypass. We report the case of a 73-year-old woman with a history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in 2004 complicated by jejunal intussusception in 2011 for which a small bowel resection was performed.

The Neuroscience Techniques and Research Training (NeuroSTART) Program aimed to increase the number of undergraduate students from the Memphis area involved in behavioral neuroscience research. In this two-semester program, students completed an empirical research project in a neuroscience lab, received individual mentoring from neuroscience faculty, became part of a STEM network, presented at research conferences, and attended specialized professional development seminars.

The primary objectives of this study are to characterize the hydroxyl group in bio-oil fractions and to investigate the relationship between the type of hydroxyl group and accelerated aging behavior. A bio-oil was fractionated into five solubility-based fractions, classified in two main groups: water-soluble and water-insoluble fractions.
