Impact of BMI, Socioeconomic Status and Bedtime Technology Use on Sleep Duration in Adolescents
(Sage, 2021-09-25)Factors related to adolescents and sleep are understudied. We evaluate the relationship between bedtime technology use (TU), TV in bedroom, weight, and socioeconomic status in seventh graders (N = 3956) enrolled in a ... -
Synaptic Hyaluronan Synthesis and CD44-Mediated Signaling Coordinate Neural Circuit Development
(MDPI, 2021-09-28)The hyaluronan-based extracellular matrix is expressed throughout nervous system development and is well-known for the formation of perineuronal nets around inhibitory interneurons. Since perineuronal nets form postnatally, ... -
Introduction: Biology and the Idea of Culture
(2014)This chapter analyses Frankenstein's dramatization of the costs and consequences of the drive for transcendence in terms of humanist culture's anxieties about human and nonhuman identities in capitalist production. The ... -
The smells of eternity: Aromatic oils and resins in the Phoenician mortuary record
(2021-09-30)This chapter surveys and analyses the aromatic substances associated with burial and the preservation of the dead in the Iron Age Phoenician Levant (c. 1100–300 bce), as part of an exploration of the lost smellscapes of ... -
Association of race and health insurance in treatment disparities of colon cancer: A retrospective analysis utilizing a national population database in the United States
(2021-10-25)Background Both health insurance status and race independently impact colon cancer (CC) care delivery and outcomes. The relative importance of these factors in explaining racial and insurance disparities is less clear, ... -

“The Ingenious Unravelling of Evidence”: Empathy, Extinction, and Wells’s The Croquet Player
(2019-09-01)While we are increasingly challenged to imagine a world without humans, we have also become increasingly attentive to the subject of empathy, in popular culture, the humanities, and the sciences. In The Time Machine (1895), ... -
TRANSHUMANISM, FRANKENSTEIN, AND EXTINCTION
(2018)Shelley's novel has been fertile ground for ecocritics over the last two decades. In Ecocriticism and the Idea of Culture (2014, 2016) I wrote about Frankenstein and culture's dialectical horror of nature. As a narrative ... -
A shallow water ferrous-hulled shipwreck reveals a distinct microbial community.
(2020-08-19)Shipwrecks act as artificial reefs and provide a solid surface in aquatic systems for many different forms of life to attach to, especially microbial communities, making them a hotspot of biogeochemical cycling. Depending ... -
Long-term nutrient enrichment of an oligotroph-dominated wetland increases bacterial diversity in bulk soils and plant rhizospheres.
(2020-05-20)In nutrient-limited conditions, plants rely on rhizosphere microbial members to facilitate nutrient acquisition, and in return, plants provide carbon resources to these root-associated microorganisms. However, atmospheric ... -
Identifying the key barriers to promote sustainable construction in the United States: A principal component analysis
(2020-06-22)The need to build more facilities has intensified the inherited adverse impacts of the construction industry on the triple bottom lines of sustainability (i.e., people, planet, and profit). The current practice of ... -
Oculomotor behavior as a biomarker for differentiating pediatric patients with mild traumatic brain injury and age matched controls.
(2020-11-12)Importance: Children have the highest incidence of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in the United States. However, mTBI, specifically pediatric patients with mTBI, are notoriously difficult to detect, and with a reliance ... -
Multihazard hurricane fragility model for wood structure homes considering hazard parameters and building attributes interaction.
(2020-09-22)Predicting building damage as a function of hurricane hazards, building attributes, and the interaction between hazard and building attributes is a key to understanding how significant interaction reflects variation hazard ... -
Screening of biocatalysts for synthesis of the Wieland-Miescher ketone.
(2020-09-16)Lipases, a versatile class of biocatalysts, have been shown to function in non-aqueous media/organic solvents and to possess “promiscuous” catalytic activity for a wide range of organic transformations. In this study, we ...
