Inside the Sage Hall Science Center, students soon will work in a lab with microscopes and needles to alter a strand of DNA in butterfly eggs.
The students will use CRISPR gene-editing technology this semester to change the color of butterfly wings from orange and brown scales to black scales — with one simple cut.
Stetson Assistant Biology Professor Lynn Kee, PhD, received a $299,996 grant from the National Science Foundation to teach students about this technique. Associate Philosophy Professor Melinda Hall, PhD, will teach them about the bioethics surrounding its use.
Lynn Kee, PhD
“The point of the grant was to bring CRISPR into the classroom in the sense that I want students to learn about this technique because it’s so new,” Kee said. “It’s not even really in textbooks. My genetic textbook has literally two, three paragraphs about it. And so what I want them to learn is about what’s currently happening in society, what’s happening in science, what’s happening in medicine.”
Melinda Hall, PhD
The discovery of CRISPR technology was awarded a Nobel Prize in 2020 and now is used in medicine, agriculture and food production. “Given the broad reach of CRISPR, there is an increased need and urgency for undergraduate students to learn about and consider how to use the technology appropriately,” according to her grant.
CRISPR is actually a molecule that acts like a pair of scissors to cut a strand of DNA at a very precise location. Scientists are using the technology to try to treat a variety of diseases and medical conditions, such as sickle cell disease, by correcting the mutation in the gene that causes the disorder. Earlier this month, doctors transplanted a genetically modified pig heart into a male patient after using CRISPR gene editing to make the organ less likely to be attacked by the patient’s immune system.
Pipettes are an indispensable tool when working with DNA and analyzing genes.
At Stetson, Kee introduced the technology in a 2019 pilot project, teaching students how to disable a gene that makes a certain bacteria glow green.
For the NSF grant, she will use butterflies, raising them in Sage Hall from caterpillar to chrysalis, a process that takes about a month. Once the butterfly emerges, it will live for about three weeks and, if provided certain leaves, will lay eggs there. These blue eggs will be collected and used for the CRISPR gene-editing technique.
“Butterflies are beautiful. We can learn a lot from studying them. We actually deliver CRISPR into these butterfly eggs to basically target a specific gene that’s involved in butterfly wing color and patterning,” Kee said. “Because what I want for them (students) to understand is how CRISPR works and for them to be able to see it with their own eyes.”
Junior Chloe DeYoung, left, and sophomore Hannah Swartz perform DNA gel electrophoresis in an experiment looking at their own DNA sequence. Both students plan to attend medical school.
Once the DNA is altered, the butterflies will not be released into the wild. “We’re very careful with what we do,” she added.
Kee has used the NSF grant to purchase microscopes and microinjection systems for the lab and other specialized equipment and supplies to analyze and sequence the DNA. The three-year grant will fund two research assistants each year in the lab, beginning this semester. A post-doctoral faculty fellow will be hired starting this fall to help teach classes. The grant will also provide funds for Kee to train faculty from other colleges in implementing CRISPR technology in the classroom.
This week, inside the Sage Hall lab, students were busy making copies of DNA taken from their cheeks. Next, they will sequence it and analyze it before moving on to the CRISPR gene-editing technique with butterfly eggs.

Senior Adrianna Strozak is a laboratory research assistant in the class and was helping students with the various laboratory techniques needed to copy their DNA. She took this class a year ago and hopes to one day earn a PhD and conduct medical research.
“That’s partially what made my senior research possible was the experience that I got taking this class,” said Strozak, whose senior project is entitled, “Testing amplification of the butterfly gene optix by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA).”
Junior Briana Hall plans to attend dental school and was enjoying working with DNA for the first time in the class.
“You feel like you’re a scientist,” said Hall, a biology major. “It’s not like we’re just sitting in a lecture, writing down notes. We’re actually doing what she’s teaching us, which is awesome.”
Those were the immediate and enthusiastic words from Kimberly Reiter, PhD, when about the status of Stetson Showcase 2022.
Since 1999, Showcase has been a springtime tradition that celebrates the research and scholarly achievements of students from across the DeLand campus. Students from all years and schools are invited to participate. Hundreds of them share their research through presentations, portfolios, posters, readings, music and theater performances, art shows and multimedia work to the general public. And they present their programs in professional settings for audiences that include judges, faculty, fellow students and esteemed members of the community.
In essence, while many Stetson students have the opportunity to present their work at professional meetings across the country, Stetson Showcase has provided an additional opportunity for them to display their work to faculty, fellow students and interested members of the wider community.
For the past two years, however, the COVID-19 pandemic halted the big show, leaving students with only an online platform to share their prowess.
Kimberly Reiter, PhD
Yet, now the return of Showcase is only days away, set for April 12 — live and in person, with one session available for students, regardless of major, to present online. In addition, Stetson President Christopher F. Roellke, PhD, was the scheduled keynote speaker.
Appropriately enough, the Showcase theme is “Resilience. Resurgence. Revival.”
“We have almost no students who remember what a normal Showcase looks like,” said Reiter, associate professor of history and long-time chair of Stetson Showcase. “The only students who remember what a normal Showcase looks like are in the graduating class, and they were freshmen who probably didn’t participate in Showcase 2019.”
Reiter, nonetheless, was anticipating a very busy day.
There will be as many as 10 concurrent sessions during the hours of 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m.. That is followed by an evening reception, featuring Roellke’s keynote speech, “Higher Education at the Crossroads,” and an awards ceremony.
In the words of Kevin Riggs, PhD, professor of physics and the first leader of Stetson Showcase back in 1998, he is “grateful to be associated with Stetson’s undergraduate research symposium.”
Riggs made that statement about Stetson Showcase 2022 on April 12, during the return of a campus tradition following a two-year absence of in-person activity due to the pandemic. The 2020 event was canceled, and last year was limited to online participation.
“It is certainly the highlight of the academic year for me,” added Riggs, who chaired Showcase’s faculty organizing committee for 10 years before handing the reins to current chair Kimberly Reiter, PhD. “My favorite part of Stetson Showcase are the poster sessions … . I am consistently amazed by the high-quality research our Stetson undergraduate students are able to conduct with their faculty mentors, much of it publication quality.”
Indeed, there was much to be proud of, as nearly 200 students exhibited their academic prowess in a wide assortment of disciplines at venues across campus. Appropriately, the theme was “Resilience. Resurgence. Revival.”
There were, for example, poster presentations in the Rinker Fieldhouse; oral presentations at Elizabeth Hall, Sage Hall and Flagler Hall; art and digital arts exhibitions at the Homer and Dolly Hand Art Center; musical performances at Lee Chapel; plus much more. Notably, the students had begun preparations for this day last summer, or even earlier, each with the help of faculty mentors.
In all, as many as 10 concurrent sessions were held throughout the day — with robust demonstrations of curiosity and intellect evident among students, faculty, staff and campus guests.
In turn, presenters received the chance to engage with visitors eye to eye.
Audience Interaction
“I definitely liked presenting in person instead of in an online format. … . Also, being able to see how the audience was reacting to what I was saying was a big benefit,” said Liam Leider, a junior majoring in political science who might continue that research as a senior and plans to attend graduate school.
Junior Liam Leider
Leider’s oral presentation was titled “SNAP and Social Media: Making More Effective Welfare Advertisements,” and was an extension of research papers he had written about food stamps in his Public Health Policy class as a sophomore. And he won an Honorable Mention for his efforts.
In his oral presentation, “The Toxicity of Positivity in the Modern World,” Jeremiah Rosario, a junior entrepreneurship major, was able to display his research on “how toxic positivity can negatively affect your life.”
“I’m glad I had the opportunity to present my topic for my final paper for Evidence-Based Management [class]. It allowed me to test out the waters of how my research could go with more collected data,” said Rosario, who found that toxic positivity is very common. The next stops for him are study abroad in Innsbruck, Austria, and a fall internship.
“I think it is wonderful to engage with peers on our research agendas critically and in person,” agreed senior Ryan Clifton, a double major in political science and economics.
Senior Ryan Clifton
His oral presentation was titled “Political Incentives and Provision: Patterns of Public Good Provision Across Regime Types,” involving the analysis of a 157-country panel data set. “My conclusions indicate that regime consolidation is an important mediator for public good provision, leading democracies and authoritarian regimes to provide more public goods,” said Clifton, who is headed to Duke University’s political science doctoral program.
Student Achievement
Research excellence, clearly, was everywhere.
Senior Stevie Simpson
Feeling “like I really pushed myself,” Stevie Simpson is set to graduate in three years. Majoring in biology, she presented a poster on the “Differences in Flower Preference for Pollen Collection between Male and Female Agapostemon splendens.”
As such, Simpson became something of a bee expert, even as her research results proved inconclusive.
Simpson hypothesized that if pollen types were collected and examined on male and female Agapostemon splendens, males would have more diverse set of pollen, and females would have overall more pollen on their bodies. In the end, the differences were not considered “significant.”
“That was a learning experience,” she said, “because I didn’t realize that just because your results aren’t ‘significant’ doesn’t mean the results are bad. It just means there are plenty of opportunities to continue the study.” Also minoring in sales, Simpson plans for take a step back after graduation in May and assess the possibility of merging biology and sales as a career.
Senior Lauren Baker
Similarly, senior marine biology major Lauren Baker isn’t quite sure if marine mammals or terrestrial animals will be in her future. Having already completed an internship in the marine world, she chose a Showcase project called “Strains of Pathogenic Bartonella Among Central Florida Rodents.”
Baker studied 140 rodents to measure the presence of Bartonella bacteria strains. For about four months, she spent approximately two hours weekly in the field (near Lake Woodruff and Blue Spring) plus one hour per week of lab time.
Baker’s hypothesis that Bartonella strains would differ among rodent species was supported by her research. “Studies such as these can better our understanding of the mammalian immune system for illness prevention,” she said, later adding that “now I have a sense of what’s required for [marine mammals and terrestrial animals].” Baker hopes to go directly into a job involving animal care.
For Kirsten Pruim, a senior majoring in biology with a minor in public health, research on “The Effects of Artificial Light on Antioxidant Capacity in Ilex vomitoria,” has illuminated her world since last July. The study centered on antioxidants in yaupon holly plants and how certain types of light impact their antioxidant capacities.
Senior Kirsten Pruim
The overall data trends showed the antioxidant capacity of the yaupon holly grown in red light was significantly higher than the plant grown in natural light, among other results.
“The goal was to get a better understanding of how light regulates antioxidant production,” she said, pointing to the hope of potentially increasing antioxidant yields for humans in consumables such as teas and fruits.
Ryan Dockery, a junior majoring in business systems and analytics, said he’s in the process of getting a job for United Airlines over the summer that “will hopefully lead me into a corporate position with Delta Airlines.” Yet, as a Bonner student, that didn’t prevent him from helping to assess service needs of the Chisholm Community Center in DeLand.
Junior Ryan Dockery
His research uncovered a need for a system to identify when students are falling behind in their studies before it becomes an issue on their school report cards. His oral presentation earned him an Honorable Mention. As a Bonner scholar with minors in management and community engagement, Dockery is now working to address that need.
Impressed? Reiter, associate professor of history and chair of the Stetson Undergraduate Research Committee and Stetson Showcase, offered deep appreciation and respect to the participating students for a promising restart to a time-honored event.
“The Undergraduate Research Committee is delighted that everything went so well!” Reiter commented. “The judges all confessed that the presentations were hard to evaluate, and two venues — Music and Art — insisted on two first-place Maris Awards, as they simply could not decide. That’s what we like to hear. The students enjoyed themselves. One told me she had looked forward to this since she was a first-year student, and was thrilled that Showcase returned in time for her to present.
“All in all, Showcase 2022, a cold jump-start of a Stetson tradition, lived up to the theme of Resilience, Resurgence, Revival. It laid the foundation for a stronger and anticipated Showcase next year. Now that students have once again seen a full Showcase, many look forward to next year.”
Showcase Reception And Awards
President Christopher F. Roellke, PhD (bottom right) was joined by enthusiastic students.
As the nightcap to Stetson Showcase 2022, a reception and awards ceremony was held at the Marshall & Vera Lea Rinker Welcome Center. Approximately 110 students attended the event, which featured a keynote address by Stetson President Christopher F. Roellke, PhD. In addition, presentations were made for the Maris Awards for Excellence in Showcase, the Dr. Leonard Nance Award for Excellence in Justice Research and grants to 2022 SURE scholars.
Roellke’s speech was titled “Higher Education at the Crossroads” — detailing that as the global COVID 19 pandemic penetrated the United States in early 2020, colleges and universities found themselves scrambling to address the ongoing public health crisis. (Officially, Roellke was the 2022 Grady Ballenger Lecturer, named after Grady Ballenger, PhD, former dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, who arrived at Stetson in 1998 and established Stetson’s first undergraduate-research symposium.)
