Terry Oroszi is an American author. She is a Professor and Vice Chair at Wright State University.
Oroszi graduated high school in Muscatine, Iowa [1] and announced to her parents that she was putting college on hold, instead she was joining the Army. Her first duty station was in Ft. Lewis, WA followed by a tour in Wurzburg, Germany.[ citation needed ] In Germany she met and married her husband Andrew Oroszi. When their commitment to the military was over, they moved to his hometown, Dayton, Ohio. Oroszi has two children.[ citation needed ]
Oroszi attended Wright State University for undergraduate degree in Biological Sciences. She then pursued MS in Biological Sciences from Wright State University. Oroszi earned her doctoral degree in education from Wright State University by completing a study and dissertation on high-stakes decision-making for crisis leadership [2] [3] [4] under the guidance of Jill Lindsey. Oroszi was the first at Wright State University to receive an Ed.D., and the only one to complete this degree in under three years. ral fellowship was completed in the new Simulations Center at the Dayton Veterans Administration Medical Center under the leadership of the first African American thoracic surgeon, Rosalyn Scott.[ citation needed ]
Oroszi served in the US Army for four years active duty between 1984 and 1988, and inactive until 1992. Her United States military occupation code was in Air Defense Artillery and during her time in Germany she was part of the NBC (nuclear biological and chemical) team.[ citation needed ]
Oroszi began her career as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the Department of Biological Sciences in Wright State University between 1998 and 2000. Between 2001 and 2007, Oroszi was employed as a research assistant, initially at the Department of Biological Sciences in Wright State University (2001-2013) and later a staff scientist in the pharmacology and toxicology department, Boonshoft School of Medicine, Wright State University. In 2008, Oroszi was made director of education in the department. [5]
Between 2005 and 2006, Oroszi was employed as the assistant director of pharmacology and toxicology graduate program at Wright State University and in 2006 she was given the role of director of Pharmacology Genetic Testing Facility in Boonshoft School of Medicine at the University.[ citation needed ] Oroszi was appointed as the Director of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear Defense (CBRN) Certificate Program at Wright State in 2012.[ citation needed ] [6]
Since 2008, Oroszi has also been working as the director of the pharmacology and toxicology graduate programs. She has also been working as an assistant professor in healthcare and homeland security in Boonshoft School of Medicine since 2016. In 2020 Oroszi became a faculty senator, representing Boonshoft School of Medicine at Wright State University.[ citation needed ]
Oroszi has spoken on American terrorism, CBRN, power, and leadership, to fellow academics, members of the military, government, and industry. Notable speaking engagements in 2019 include the National Security Agency, Quantico, and US Congressional Staff in Washington, DC., [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [ excessive citations ]
Dayton is a city in Montgomery and Greene counties in the U.S. state of Ohio. As of the 2020 census, the city proper had a population of 137,644, making it the sixth-most populous city in Ohio. It anchors the state's fourth-largest metropolitan area, the Dayton metropolitan area, which had 814,049 residents. Dayton is located within Ohio's Miami Valley region, 50 miles (80 km) north of Cincinnati and 60 miles (97 km) west of Columbus. It is the seat of Montgomery County.
In vitro studies are performed with microorganisms, cells, or biological molecules outside their normal biological context. Colloquially called "test-tube experiments", these studies in biology and its subdisciplines are traditionally done in labware such as test tubes, flasks, Petri dishes, and microtiter plates. Studies conducted using components of an organism that have been isolated from their usual biological surroundings permit a more detailed or more convenient analysis than can be done with whole organisms; however, results obtained from in vitro experiments may not fully or accurately predict the effects on a whole organism. In contrast to in vitro experiments, in vivo studies are those conducted in living organisms, including humans, known as clinical trials, and whole plants.
In toxicology, the median lethal dose, LD50 (abbreviation for "lethal dose, 50%"), LC50 (lethal concentration, 50%) or LCt50 is a toxic unit that measures the lethal dose of a given substance. The value of LD50 for a substance is the dose required to kill half the members of a tested population after a specified test duration. LD50 figures are frequently used as a general indicator of a substance's acute toxicity. A lower LD50 is indicative of higher toxicity.
Pharmacology is the science of drugs and medications, including a substance's origin, composition, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, therapeutic use, and toxicology. More specifically, it is the study of the interactions that occur between a living organism and chemicals that affect normal or abnormal biochemical function. If substances have medicinal properties, they are considered pharmaceuticals.
Toxicology is a scientific discipline, overlapping with biology, chemistry, pharmacology, and medicine, that involves the study of the adverse effects of chemical substances on living organisms and the practice of diagnosing and treating exposures to toxins and toxicants. The relationship between dose and its effects on the exposed organism is of high significance in toxicology. Factors that influence chemical toxicity include the dosage, duration of exposure, route of exposure, species, age, sex, and environment. Toxicologists are experts on poisons and poisoning. There is a movement for evidence-based toxicology as part of the larger movement towards evidence-based practices. Toxicology is currently contributing to the field of cancer research, since some toxins can be used as drugs for killing tumor cells. One prime example of this is ribosome-inactivating proteins, tested in the treatment of leukemia.
Wright State University is a public research university in Fairborn, Ohio, United States. Originally opened in 1964 as a branch campus of Miami University and Ohio State University, it became an independent institution in 1967 and was named in honor of aviation pioneers Orville and Wilbur Wright, who were residents of nearby Dayton. The university offers bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees and is classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity". Its athletic teams, the Wright State Raiders, compete in Division I of the NCAA as members of the Horizon League. In addition to the main campus, the university also operates a regional campus near Celina, Ohio, called Wright State University–Lake Campus.
Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense or Nuclear, biological, and chemical protection is a class of protective measures taken in situations where chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear hazards may be present. CBRN defense consists of CBRN passive protection, contamination avoidance, and weapons of mass destruction mitigation.
Dimenhydrinate, sold under the brand name Dramamine, among others, is an over-the-counter medication used to treat motion sickness and nausea. Dimenhydrinate is a theoclate salt composed of diphenhydramine and 8-chlorotheophylline in a 1:1 ratio.
Dimercaprol, also called British anti-Lewisite (BAL), is a medication used to treat acute poisoning by arsenic, mercury, gold, and lead. It may also be used for antimony, thallium, or bismuth poisoning, although the evidence for those uses is not very strong. It is given by injection into a muscle.
A biological target is anything within a living organism to which some other entity is directed and/or binds, resulting in a change in its behavior or function. Examples of common classes of biological targets are proteins and nucleic acids. The definition is context-dependent, and can refer to the biological target of a pharmacologically active drug compound, the receptor target of a hormone, or some other target of an external stimulus. Biological targets are most commonly proteins such as enzymes, ion channels, and receptors.
Vincamine is a monoterpenoid indole alkaloid found in the leaves of Vinca minor, comprising about 25–65% of its indole alkaloids by weight. It can also be synthesized from related alkaloids.
