The top U.S. airlines by passenger volume move a little more than half a billion passengers annually, both domestically and internationally, burning millions of gallons of fuel and releasing millions of tons of the GHG ...

<p>Adherens junctions are calcium-dependent cell-cell contacts formed during epithelial morphogenesis that link neighboring cells via cadherin receptors. Coordinated regulation of the actin cytoskeleton by the Rho GTPases ...

<p><p>Clean water is a critical natural resource. We do not have much available: only 2.5% of water on Earth is freshwater and of that only 31% is in liquid form. 96% of the liquid fresh water is groundwater. Unfortunately ...

<p>I develop an empirical model that estimates a firm-specific accrual noise ratio (ANR), an operational and statistically grounded measure of accrual reliability, and test the measure's construct validity. The model allows ...

<p><bold>Purpose:<bold> (1) To benchmark the accuracy of effective dose equivalent (EDE) of the single- and double-badge methods (NRC 2002-06) using the commercially available radiation monitors in clinical settings, (2) ...

<p>Current standard cancer treatments such as chemotherapeutics, and radiation therapy are nearly as likely to kill the patient as cure the cancer. Therapies that have such a narrow window of efficacy are necessary for the ...

<p>Acoustic radiation force impulses (ARFI) have been used to generated transverse-traveling mechanical waves in various biological tissues. The velocity of these waves is related to a medium's stiffness and thus can offer ...

<p>Consumers often lack objective information about product acquisition costs. In such cases, consumers must rely on estimates of acquisition costs in making their choices. The current work examines the influence of mental ...

<p>Mice have become the preferred model system for studying brain function and disease. With the powerful genetic tools available, mouse models can be created to study the underlying molecular basis of neurobiology in vivo. ...

Non-point source pollution is not generated from any single source, rather can arise from a mixture of agricultural, residential, and industrial activities. As a result of these activities millions of tons of chemicals ...
