The state of undergraduate learning

undergraduate

Roksa J, Arum R.
GSID: 5ocF90IBHCkJ
J Roksa, R Arum - Change: The Magazine of Higher Learning, 2011 - Taylor & Francis

Campuses, we use the performance-task component of the CLA to gauge learning in higher education. While recognizing that critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and writing are not …

1pPAb5. Acoustic radiation force to reposition kidney stones.

Proceedings of meetings on acoustics. Acoustical Society of America

Bailey MR, Wang YN, Simon J, Cunitz B, Harper J, Hsi R, Starr F, Paun M, Sapozhnikov O, Dunmire B, Crum L, Sorensen M.
PMID: 26207161
Proc Meet Acoust. 2013;19. doi: 10.1121/1.4799599.

Our group has introduced transcutaneous ultrasound to move kidney stones in order to expel small stones or relocate an obstructing stone to a nonobstructing location. Human stones and metalized beads (2-8 mm) were implanted ureteroscopically in kidneys of eight...

Epidemiology of Carbapenem Resistance among Multi-drug Resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Uganda.

British microbiology research journal

Ampaire LM, Katawera V, Nyehangane D, Boum Y, Bazira J.
PMID: 26605152
Br Microbiol Res J. 2015;8(2):418-423. doi: 10.9734/BMRJ/2015/17055. Epub 2015 May 02.

BACKGROUND: Multi-drug resistant (MDR) Enterobacteriaceae are on the increase worldwide and their spread has become a global challenge. Escalating the challenge is the possibility that many of these are Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). This further complicates patient management. The magnitude...

Cooperation of the BTB-Zinc finger protein, Abrupt, with cytoskeletal regulators in Drosophila epithelial tumorigenesis.

Biology open

Turkel N, Portela M, Poon C, Li J, Brumby AM, Richardson HE.
PMID: 26187947
Biol Open. 2015 Jul 17;4(8):1024-39. doi: 10.1242/bio.012815.

The deregulation of cell polarity or cytoskeletal regulators is a common occurrence in human epithelial cancers. Moreover, there is accumulating evidence in human epithelial cancer that BTB-ZF genes, such as Bcl6 and ZBTB7A, are oncogenic. From our previous studies...

Spin-dependent WIMP limits from a bubble chamber.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Behnke E, Collar JI, Cooper PS, Crum K, Crisler M, Hu M, Levine I, Nakazawa D, Nguyen H, Odom B, Ramberg E, Rasmussen J, Riley N, Sonnenschein A, Szydagis M, Tschirhart R.
PMID: 18276885
Science. 2008 Feb 15;319(5865):933-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1149999.

Bubble chambers were the dominant technology used for particle detection in accelerator experiments for several decades, eventually falling into disuse with the advent of other techniques. We report here on a new application for these devices. We operated an...

A high-resolution linear optical scanner using a traveling-wave acoustic lens.

Applied optics

Foster LC, Crumly CB, Cohoon RL.
PMID: 20094214
Appl Opt. 1970 Sep 01;9(9):2154-60. doi: 10.1364/AO.9.002154.

The focusing properties of traveling acoustic waves can be employed in line-scan systems to convert a low-resolution optical beam into a high-resolution beam, both beams scanning linearly in synchronism with the acoustic wave velocity. Used in conjunction with any...

Detecting high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions in the cervix with quantitative spectroscopy and per-patient normalization.

Biomedical optics express

Mirkovic J, Lau C, McGee S, Crum C, Badizadegan K, Feld M, Stier E.
PMID: 22025992
Biomed Opt Express. 2011 Oct 01;2(10):2917-25. doi: 10.1364/BOE.2.002917. Epub 2011 Sep 29.

This study develops a spectroscopic algorithm for detection of cervical high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs). We collected reflectance and fluorescence spectra with the quantitative spectroscopy probe to measure nine spectroscopic parameters from 43 patients undergoing standard colposcopy with...
