Reasons to Join OHIO Society of Physics Students The Society of Physics Students (SPS) Ohio University chapter President Kate Nichols shares why she invites physics and astronomy majors to join SPS during the school year– meet other students at lunchtime once a week, learn about faculty research, get involved in […]

 Anika Friedman, a double major in Physics and Neuroscience in Ohio University’s Honors Tutorial College, spent two years on her undergraduate research project focused on determining the mechanism for neurofilament slowing using computational models. Neurofilaments are the most abundant filamentous structures in the axons of neurons and determine their […]

The Biological Sciences Department announces a series of thesis presentations by Honors Tutorial College and biology students in April 2019. Anika Friedman (HTC Neuroscience) presents “A Computational Model of Neurofilament Kinetics Relating to Axonal Caliber Growth and the Neurofilament Slowing Phenomenon” on Thursday, April 11, from 5 to 6 p.m. […]

By Amanda Biederman Using a computer model to explain the function of a neuronal cell is no small feat, but that doesn’t stop undergraduate researcher Anika Friedman, who was awarded third prize for her work at Neuroscience Research Day, from taking on the challenge. Friedman, an Honors Tutorial College student, […]

Six Ohio University undergraduate Physics & Astronomy students presented an overview of their projects undertaken the previous summer, during the 2018 Society of Physics Students Research Conference held recently in Walter Hall. The presentations were reviewed by a panel of two faculty judges. Society of Physics (SPS) Faculty Adviser Dr. […]

A fundamental equation in mathematical biophysics is the cable equation, whose solution gives the distribution of voltage along the length of a membrane, such as a neuronal axon. Anika Friedman, an Ohio University Engineering Physics and Neuroscience double major in the Honors Tutorial College, spent last summer delving into a […]
