Theseefforts come at a time when North Dakota has seen a rise in meth addiction, and meth-related crime. According to a 2017 article in the Bismarck Tribune, methamphetamine remains the most commonly used hard drug in the region, and meth incidents have risen each year since 2012.

Minot State is working in association with Oregon Health and Science University on this study. Oregon Health and Science University carries out the breeding schemes of the mice, while Minot State researchers focus on the behavioral pharmacological component of the study.


Houlton, who will be attending the graduate neuroscience program at the University of Iowa in fall 2018, and fellow lab assistant Bikalpa Ghimire, a senior double major in biology and mathematics, work under the direction of Shabani. Much of their work involves administering a two-bottle choice, a bottle of water and a bottle of methamphetamine, to mice and then observing and documenting their behavior.


The aim of the research is to locate a gene or genes that cause methamphetamine addiction. So far research has pinpointed a region of genes in Chromosome 10 that explain certain addictive behavioral traits.


The scope of the methamphetamine research reaches beyond the walls of the lab in the Cyril Moore Science building. Shabani and his students have presented their research at many conferences including the Society for Neuroscience, INBRE, and most recently at the International Behavioral and Neural Genetics Society in Rochester, Minn.


According to Shabani, who began working on methamphetamine research when he was a post doctorate student, the ultimate goal is to develop drugs in the future that can prevent relapse for people struggling with addiction.


About Minot State University

Minot State University is a public university dedicated to excellence in education, scholarship, and community engagement achieved through rigorous academic experiences, active learning environments, commitment to public service, and a vibrant campus life.


Our department has primary responsibility for undergraduate education in the biological sciences, and all of our faculty participate in that mission. A large number of our students have a strong interest in medicine, and we have developed a range of opportunities to prepare our majors for medical school and beyond.


Our focus is to help undergraduate students succeed in the classroom and in their future career goals. All of our faculty members serve as advisors for undergraduate biology majors and welcome undergraduates interested in research to work in their labs.


Our research addresses a wide range of biological questions, across and between the sub-disciplines of biology: from single molecules to systems, and from steady state equilibria to dynamic remodeling over milliseconds to millions of generations. We invite graduate students enrolled in the Division of Biology and Biomedical Sciences to explore the diverse research areas our faculty members study.


Scientists at Washington University in St. Louis are working out the particulars of how our internal biological clocks keep time. Their new research, published July 24 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, helps answer longstanding questions about how circadian rhythms are generated and maintained.


The Department of Biology is well known for the diverse scientific interests of its faculty member, students, and postdoctoral scholars. We are committed to making the field of science more inclusive by sharing this knowledge with the wider community. We invite you to learn more about the outreach events that our department participates in.


Summer humidity in Washington D.C. can be brutal, but Angelly Tovar, a junior majoring in wildlife, fish and conservation biology, had a place where she could escape the heat. The Museum Support Center, located in Suitland, Md looks nondescript on the outside, but the building houses more than 31 million objects, including the largest collection of biological specimens preserved in fluid in the country. Its fish collection was started in the mid-1800s.


Victoria Susman, a senior majoring in wildlife, fish and conservation biology, said her 9-to-5 days consisted of collecting linear measurements from the fish using calipers. While the students were trained in measuring techniques prior to their summer assignments, there was a learning curve.


As of 2018-19, only the grades 5 and 8 Statewide Science Assessment is still being administered. For information about those assessments, visit the Statewide Science Assessment page of the FDOE website. Practice materials for the Florida Standards Assessments (FSA) are available on the FSA Portal.


The FCAT 2.0 Sample Test and Answer Key Books were produced to prepare students to take the tests in mathematics (grades 3-8) and reading (grades 3-10). Sample Test and Answer Key Books for grades 5 and 8 science are available on the Statewide Science Assessment page. The Sample Question Books are designed to help students become familiar with FCAT 2.0 questions and to offer students practice answering questions in different formats. The Sample Answer Keys are designed to be used by teachers to explain to students the answers and solutions to the questions in the Sample Question Books and to identify which Next Generation Sunshine State Standards benchmark is being tested by the question.


The registration system requires a registration PIN (personal identification number), but it requires it at different times based on student status. Unlike other majors, not all biology and zoology students need to meet an advisor each term to receive a PIN.


When students do need a PIN, an appointment is required, so please plan ahead. Advising appointments for PINs usually begin around week 5 of the term. Registration PINs are also given out to students with holds or balances on their accounts so they can register when those issues are resolved.


First-year students, NCAA athletes, and student veterans or those receiving veteran benefits need to meet with an advisor EACH TERM to receive their registration PIN. Some students working with Disability Access Services also need to meet EACH TERM to receive their registration PIN.


If you were listed with another major before biology or zoology or have recently changed majors from a major that required a PIN each term, you may need to get a PIN each term at first. Students with some double majors may also need to meet for PINs more frequently as other units require a new PIN every term.


The mission of biology and zoology advising is to engage students in developing and implementing a plan leading to the realization of their educational, life and professional goals. Biology advisors assist students in making well-informed decisions by giving them accurate information about requirements, career choices, professional activities, academic success resources and university policies.


Biology and zoology advising is organized around the conviction that students should be actively engaged in their education, as well as the planning and decisions needed to reach their professional goals. From the beginning, advising focuses on educational and professional goals, and advisors work to suggest opportunities that are important to being successful in those goals. However, advisors will never know everything, and students should also actively seek out information on their own. Advisors are there to assist students, but students bear the ultimate responsibility of being aware of requirements and utilizing appropriate resources and opportunities to meet their needs.


Know everything about all careers. Your advisor will provide what feedback they can, but generally, you will need to engage in further research on your own through reading, orientation classes, shadowing, volunteering, informational interviews and other resources. You should be working on and thinking about this task frequently and discussing what you discover with your advisor.


Students on academic warning or probation should communicate with their advisor immediately, particularly related to any math or science course they were not successful in. In addition, these students should read the regulations on academic standing. All Corvallis students on academic warning or probation look at the Academic Success Resources for Biology Students at OSU. Ecampus students should review the online student resources guide and consult with the Ecampus student services as appropriate.


Students on academic suspension should read the regulations on academic suspension and the guidelines for reinstatement.




If you consider petitioning, meet with your advisor about their support in the reinstatement process and if you meet the guidelines above. You will need to share your written petition statement with your advisor as part of this process. You will also need to complete an Academic Performance Agreement and the College of Science Head Advisor name and contact also needs to be included in the petition.


You can change your grade to (S/U) or withdraw from courses up until the Friday of Week 7, but there are specific rules about which courses you can S/U. Before making any decision about dropping or withdrawing from a course (or term), you should do the following:


Your advisor does not automatically know you are retaking a course. If you are considering repeating any course you completed at OSU or another school, or you are repeating any OSU course for the third time, you should bring the specifics of your situation to the attention of your advisor. You can also review the points below and the appropriate Academic Regulation (AR 20) for more information.


It will not always be very beneficial to retake courses, particularly since small changes in grades are often dwarfed by your cumulative GPA by the time you graduate. In general, unless you must retake a requirement, it is generally not a good idea to retake a course unless you feel you can do significantly better and you have not already attempted it twice. Often it is better to focus on doing well in subsequent courses. You can use the GPA calculator to run scenarios of repeating courses and the impact on your GPA.
