Effectiveness of Geosciences Exploration Summer Program (GeoX) for increasing awareness and Broadening Participation in the Geosciences

Broadening participation

Garcia SJ, Houser C.
GSID: -SDNIulQYRkJ
SJ Garcia, C Houser - AGU Fall Meeting Abstracts, 2013 - ui.adsabs.harvard.edu

Summer research experiences are an increasingly popular means to increase awareness of and develop interest in the Geosciences and other STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) programs. Here we describe and report the preliminary results of a new one-…

Study abroad field trip improves test performance through engagement and new social networks

Geoscience Opportunities for Leadership in Diversity AND Program Evaluation

Brannstrom C, Houser C, Quiring SM.
GSID: D4jI7k_GWG8J
C Houser, C Brannstrom, SM Quiring… - Journal of Geography …, 2011 - Taylor & Francis

Although study abroad trips provide an opportunity for affective and cognitive learning, it is largely assumed that they improve learning outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a study abroad field trip improved cognitive learning by...

Bioinformatics core competencies for undergraduate life sciences education

Computer and Information Science and Engineering Minority-Serving Institutions Research Expansion Program AND Program Evaluation

Hauser C, Robic S, Sierk M.
GSID: _f2Y_1g00c8J
MAW Sayres, C Hauser, M Sierk, S Robic… - PloS one, 2018 - journals.plos.org

Although bioinformatics is becoming increasingly central to research in the life sciences, bioinformatics skills and knowledge are not well integrated into undergraduate biology education. This curricular gap prevents biology students from harnessing the full potential of their education, limiting...

Introduction to the critical zone

Geoscience Opportunities for Leadership in Diversity AND Program Evaluation

Houser C.
GSID: DFa-Jdg6A3sJ
JR Giardino, C Houser - Developments in earth surface processes, 2015 - Elsevier

The National Research Council (NRC, 2001, p. 2) defined the Critical Zone as “the heterogeneous, near surface environment in which complex interactions involving rock, soil, water, …

Optical resonance imaging: An optical analog to MRI with sub-diffraction-limited capabilities.

ACS photonics

Allodi MA, Dahlberg PD, Mazuski RJ, Davis HC, Otto JP, Engel GS.
PMID: 28451625
ACS Photonics. 2016 Dec 21;3(12):2445-2452. doi: 10.1021/acsphotonics.6b00694. Epub 2016 Nov 08.

We propose here optical resonance imaging (ORI), a direct optical analog to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The proposed pulse sequence for ORI maps space to time and recovers an image from a heterodyne-detected third-order nonlinear photon echo measurement. As...

Local staging and assessment of colon cancer with 1.5-T magnetic resonance imaging.

The British journal of radiology

Hunter C, Blake H, Jeyadevan N, Abulafi M, Swift I, Toomey P, Brown G.
PMID: 27226219
Br J Radiol. 2016 Aug;89(1064):20160257. doi: 10.1259/bjr.20160257. Epub 2016 May 26.

OBJECTIVE:: The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of 1.5-T MRI in the pre-operative local T and N staging of colon cancer and identification of extramural vascular invasion (EMVI).METHODS:: Between 2010 and 2012, 60 patients with...

CBE Life Sci Educ. 2014;13(4):711-23. doi: 10.1187/cbe.13-10-0200.

In their 2012 report, the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology advocated "replacing standard science laboratory courses with discovery-based research courses"-a challenging proposition that presents practical and pedagogical difficulties. In this paper, we describe our collective experiences...

Spontaneous object recognition: a promising approach to the comparative study of memory.

Frontiers in behavioral neuroscience

Blaser R, Heyser C, Beaumont MA, Robert CP.
PMID: 26217207
Front Behav Neurosci. 2015 Jul 10;9:183. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2015.00183. eCollection 2015.

Spontaneous recognition of a novel object is a popular measure of exploratory behavior, perception and recognition memory in rodent models. Because of its relative simplicity and speed of testing, the variety of stimuli that can be used, and its...

Bifurcations of periodic orbits in axisymmetric scalefree potentials.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences

Hunter C, Terzić B, Burns AM, Porchia D, Zink C.
PMID: 12088053
Ann N Y Acad Sci. 1998 Dec 30;867:61-84. doi: 10.1111/j.1749-6632.1998.tb11250.x.

We study orbits in potentials with central cusps, emphasizing the spheroidal equidensity (SED) potentials generated by mass distributions with spheroidal equidensity surfaces. The most prominent bifurcations are those related to 1:1 and 4:3 resonances between radial motions and motions...
