(East Carolina University, 2015)
This paper focuses on the role that resources have in predicting the impact of an environmental organizations. This study contributes to an emerging stream of research literature on social movements that explicitly uses ...
A CRISPR/Cas9 Toolbox for Multiplexed Plant Genome Editing and Transcriptional Regulation
(2015)
The relative ease, speed and biological scope of CRISPR/Cas9-based reagents for genomic manipulations are revolutionizing virtually all areas of molecular biosciences, including functional genomics, genetics, applied ...
Risk assessment based on indirect predation cues: revisiting fine-grained variation
(2015-10)
To adaptively express inducible defenses, prey must gauge risk based on indirect cues of predation. However, the information contained in indirect cues that enable prey to fine-tune their phenotypes to variation in risk ...
Protein Kinase A Governs Oxidative Phosphorylation Kinetics and Oxidant Emitting Potential at Complex I
(2015)
he mitochondrial electron transport system (ETS) is responsible for setting and
maintaining both the energy and redox charges throughout the cell. Reversible
phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins, particularly via ...
An Extended Fourier Approach to Improve the Retrieved Leaf Area Index (LAI) in a Time Series from an Alpine Wetland
(2015)
An extended Fourier approach was presented to improve the retrieved leaf area
index (LAIr) of herbaceous vegetation in a time series from an alpine wetland. The retrieval
was performed from the Aqua MODIS 8-day composite ...
Bias Within: Examining the Role of Cultural Competence Perceptions in Mammography Adherence
(2015)
Breast cancer mortality has affected African American women at a disproportionate rate. The purpose of this research was

Remote Antimicrobial Stewardship in Community Hospitals
(2015-11)
Antimicrobial stewardship has become standard practice at university medical centers, but the practice is more difficult to implement in remote community hospitals that lack infectious diseases trained practitioners. ...
Obesity in a model of gpx4 haploinsufficiency uncovers a causal role for lipid-derived aldehydes in human metabolic disease and cardiomyopathy
(2015)
Objective: Lipid peroxides and their reactive aldehyde derivatives (LPPs) have been linked to obesity-related pathologies, but whether they have a causal role has remained unclear. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) is a ...
