Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular process in which macromolecules undergo lysosomal degradation. It fulfills essential roles in quality controlling cellular constituents and in energy homeostasis. Basal autophagy...
Reduced autophagy has been implicated in aging, yet whether its loss can promote aging phenotypes and pathologies in mammals, and how reversible this process is, has never been fully explored. Using inducible short hairpin RNA...
Cassidy's newest exhibition, "The Sound of Everything," is on display through July 16 in the Ross Gallery at Central Piedmont Community College. Who's the best artist on the Charlotte, North Carolina, arts scene? Winthrop...
Chromosomal instability is a hallmark of human cancer cells, but its role in carcinogenesis remains poorly resolved. Insights into this role have emerged from studies on the tumour suppressor BRCA2, whose inactivation in human...
Sculpture professor Shaun Cassidy is the recipient of the 2006 Kinard Teaching Award. Cassidy is coordinator of the Department of Art and Design's sculpture program.
There is a growing need to better prepare students for twenty-first-century literacy demands. Integrating technology into education improves student achievement and increases students' technological literacy. Classroom blogging...
"Collaboration of Fragments" will open Nov. 19 at the Sumter County Gallery of Art. The exhibition will feature the collaborative and individual efforts of Winthrop faculty Tom Stanley and Shaun Cassidy.
Autophagy is an important cellular degradation pathway with a central role in metabolism as well as basic quality control, two processes inextricably linked to ageing. A decrease in autophagy is associated with increasing age...
Two faculty/staff members received grants: Shaun Cassidy and Chris O'Neill '98, '10. Two alumni received grants: Holly Glasscock '86 and Betsy Birkner '97.
Macroautophagy/autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved catabolic pathway whose modulation has been linked to diverse disease states, including age-associated disorders. Conventional and conditional whole-body knockout mouse...

The project is made possible through a $30,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts grant. Professor of Fine Arts Shaun Cassidy will incorporate the project into a spring 2016 course.
BACKGROUND: Cancer is first and foremost a disease of the genome. Specific genetic signatures within a tumour are prognostic of disease outcome, reflect subclonal architecture and intratumour heterogeneity, inform treatment...
Time Further Out stands 25 feet tall and is made of powder-coated steel and aluminum. Cassidy and Stanley have worked together before, most recently on the LYNX Blue Line Extension Project.
Tom Stanley and Shaun Cassidy are featured in the LYNX Blue Line Extension art project. An opening reception is scheduled for today at 5:30 p.m. at the Storrs Building Gallery in Charlotte. The exhibit will remain at the Storrs...
Cassidy's lecture is scheduled for Thursday, April 16, at 6 p.m. in Tate Hall. "The Sound of Everything" will be on display through July 16. Trips to England and Wales inspired a new exhibit for Winthrop University Professor of...
