Neural Correlates of Sympathy
(2011-01-11)
Sympathy has not been not fully studied in the context of neural processes. Thanks to
new methods of brain imaging and recording, the emotions anger, disgust, desire, and
fear have been intensely studied, and new theories ...
Changes in protein expression in maturing equine testis: a quantitative DIGE analysis
(2011-01-11)
Gross observation of testicular parenchyma of prepubertal horses reveals both light and
dark regions. The light regions are associated with localized initiation and regulation of
spermatogenesis. It is hypothesized that ...
Sustainable design for a subtropical green roof with local, recyclable substrates and native plant species
(2011-01-11)
As sustainable development becomes the norm, such innovations as the green roof are becoming more commonplace around the world. However, designs tailored for specific climatic regions are still in their infancy. Vegetation ...
A Novel Sensitive Method of Detecting Mnemonic Decline in Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease
(2011-01-11)
Deficits in transferring generalized information of past learning to new problems are related to mild hippocampal atrophy in the elderly and appear to be an early marker of age-related cognitive decline. This inability to ...
Characterization of a circadian rhythm mutant identified in a genetic screen in Neurospora crassa
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)
Most organisms display daily rhythms in biochemical, physiological, and behavioral events. Examples of these rhythms include photosynthesis in plants and sleep/wake cycles in birds and mammals. These daily rhythms are ...
Improvement in the Mechanical Properties of B-Staged Carbon Nanotube/Epoxy Based Thin Film Systems
(2011-01-11)
Polymeric systems have been the subject of tremendous interest to the aerospace
industry due to their high strength per weight ratio but have not seen the use projected
due to their poor compression after impact strength, ...
Analysis of a typical Midwestern structure subjected to seismic loads
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)
The extent of damage and casualties in Midwest cities such as St. Louis during an earthquake caused by the New Madrid fault system will be due in part to the performance of buildings. Dynamic nonlinear analysis of a ...
Adaptation of Microvasculature to Pulsatility
(2013-09-24)
Continuous-flow left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation leads to increased peripheral resistance and development of arteriovenous malformations. These comorbidities have resisted mechanistic explanation, because ...
Identification of Smooth Muscle Gamma Actin in Prostate Epithelia
(2013-09-25)
Prostate cancer is the second most common form of cancer in American men. Though broad treatments are available, these often have deleterious effects on the patient. One approach which may result in a more tailored treatment ...
Effect of Exopolymers on the Consumption of Synechococcus by Oxyrrhis marina
(2013-09-25)
Microscopic organisms play an important role in carbon cycling in the ocean. Because of their large role, understanding how their activity is affected by other organisms and by particles in the water is important to ...
