A basic thunderstorm, goes through three phases during its lifetime: cumulus, mature, and dissipating. These storms can last between 30 minutes to an hour.

She hates the idea that she is able to help others heal, while not being able to heal herself. However, after reflecting on her ability, her character evolves into a more selfless one. After her struggle with Carlos, she explains that “I might never be healed, but healing would come for him, finally, no matter how hard he fought it.” (Loomis 5).

The overall goal of my research is to better understand the roles that fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs), specifically epidermal-FABP (FAPB5) and brain-FABP (FABP7), play within regulating the endocannabinoid system and to understand the role of FABP in addiction. The endocannabinoid system is linked with the rewarding effects of abused drugs. Central to the endocannabinoid system is the cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1R), which is expressed ubiquitously throughout the brain. Within the brain reward circuit, activation of CB1Rs regulates the strength and plasticity of glutamate and GABA synapses. Specifically, dopaminergic projections from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus accumbens (NAc) plays a critical role in reward
