Portable Behavioral Modeling of TID Degradation of Voltage Feedback Op-Amps
(2009-07-19)
Presently the tools available for predicting the effect of radiation on microelectronic circuits rely on SPICE models to simulate post-irradiation parameter and performance changes. However, modeling complex integrated ...
Analysis of signaling pathways important in the specification and migration of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells in the zebrafish spinal cord
(2009-07-19)
During spinal cord development, precursor cells transition from proliferative divisions to differentiative divisions. Traditionally proliferative divisions, which increase cell numbers, are thought to be symmetric, whereas ...
IDPicker 2.0: Improved Protein Assembly with High Discrimination Peptide Identification Filtering
(2009-07-15)
Tandem mass spectrometry-based shotgun proteomics has become a widespread technology for analyzing complex protein mixtures. A number of database searching algorithms have been developed to assign peptide sequences to ...
Hemozoin: A Paradigm for Biomineralization in Disease
(2009-07-19)
Biomineralization is the formation of organic-inorganic composites by organisms. Originally evolved as a protective mechanism, this complex process has also become a recognized contributor to several disease states, ranging ...
Theoretical and Computational Investigations of Minimal Energy Problems
(2009-07-19)
Let A be a d-dimensional compact subset of p-dimensional Euclidean space. For s in (0,d) the Riesz s-equilibrium measure is the unique Borel probability measure that minimizes the Riesz s-energy over the set of all Borel ...
A Means to an End: Judicial Independence, Corruption and the Rule of Law in Latin America
(2009-07-23)
This project seeks to understand the meaning and importance of judicial independence. The capacity of a judicial system to administrate justice without outside influences is a necessary requisite for the consolidation of ...
Ghost Complaint: Historiography, Gender, and the Return of the Dead in Elizabethan Literature
(2009-07-23)
In this study, I read Elizabethan ghost complaint poetry as a locus for understanding the era’s obsessive desire to speak with, for, and as the dead. In charting the rise to popularity of this now neglected poetic form, I ...
From Classical to Postmodern: Madness in Inter-American Narrative
(2009-07-21)
The advent of the popular culture phenomenon allowed the definition and therefore the confinement and treatment of madmen, in the literary sense, to change, evolving into a complicated interaction within the cultural ...
A comparison of teacher and student responsiveness for students at high and low risk for externalizing behavior problems
(2009-07-20)
Students at risk for developing externalizing behavior disorders (EBD) are among the most challenging students to teach. The combination of instructional and behavioral demands that students at risk for EBD place on their ...
