Identifying systemic inequity in higher education and opportunities for improvement

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

Denaro K, Dennin M, Dennin K.
GSID: S1GTBmck7AYJ
K Denaro, K Dennin, M Dennin, B Sato - Plos one, 2022 - journals.plos.org

It is well established that there is a national problem surrounding the equitable participation in and completion of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) higher education programs. Persons excluded because of their ethnicity or race (PEERs) experience lower course...

Brain Levels of Catalase Remain Constant through Strain, Developmental, and Chronic Alcohol Challenges.

Enzyme research

Rhoads DE, Contreras C, Fathalla S.
PMID: 22919469
Enzyme Res. 2012;2012:572939. doi: 10.1155/2012/572939. Epub 2012 Aug 05.

Catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) oxidizes ethanol to acetaldehyde within the brain and variations in catalase activity may underlie some consequences of ethanol consumption. The goals of this study were to measure catalase activity in subcellular fractions from rat brain and...

Stable small bubble clusters in two-dimensional foams.

Soft matter

Zhang K, Kuo CC, See N, O'Hern C, Dennin M.
PMID: 28513729
Soft Matter. 2017 Jun 21;13(24):4370-4380. doi: 10.1039/c7sm00723j.

Key features of the mechanical response of amorphous particulate materials, such as foams, emulsions, and granular media, to applied stress are determined by the frequency and size of particle rearrangements that occur as the system transitions from one mechanically...

Role of melanocortin signalling in the preference for dietary macronutrients in human beings.

Lancet (London, England)

van der Klaauw A, Keogh J, Henning E, Stephenson C, Trowse VM, Fletcher P, Farooqi S.
PMID: 26312834
Lancet. 2015 Feb 26;385:S12. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(15)60327-0.

BACKGROUND: Signalling though the melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R), which is widely expressed in the hypothalamus, mediates food intake and macronutrient preference in rodents. Studies in patients with MC4R deficiency can provide insights into the role of this pathway in...

Larval green and white sturgeon swimming performance in relation to water-diversion flows.

Conservation physiology

Verhille CE, Poletto JB, Cocherell DE, DeCourten B, Baird S, Cech JJ, Fangue NA.
PMID: 27293652
Conserv Physiol. 2014 Aug 23;2(1):cou031. doi: 10.1093/conphys/cou031. eCollection 2014.

Little is known of the swimming capacities of larval sturgeons, despite global population declines in many species due in part to fragmentation of their spawning and rearing habitats by man-made water-diversion structures. Larval green (Acipenser medirostris) and white sturgeon...

Mechanotransduction in cancer.

Current opinion in chemical engineering

Chin L, Xia Y, Discher DE, Janmey PA.
PMID: 28344926
Curr Opin Chem Eng. 2016 Feb;11:77-84. doi: 10.1016/j.coche.2016.01.011. Epub 2016 Feb 16.

Tissue stiffness is tightly controlled under normal conditions, but changes with disease. In cancer, tumors often tend to be stiffer than the surrounding uninvolved tissue, yet the cells themselves soften. Within the past decade, and particularly in the last...

Efficacy of a sensory deterrent and pipe modifications in decreasing entrainment of juvenile green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris) at unscreened water diversions.

Conservation physiology

Poletto JB, Cocherell DE, Mussen TD, Ercan A, Bandeh H, Levent Kavvas M, Cech JJ, Fangue NA.
PMID: 27293677
Conserv Physiol. 2014 Dec 05;2(1):cou056. doi: 10.1093/conphys/cou056. eCollection 2014.

Water projects designed to extract fresh water for local urban, industrial and agricultural use throughout rivers and estuaries worldwide have contributed to the fragmentation and degradation of suitable habitat for native fishes. The number of water diversions located throughout...

High thermal tolerance of a rainbow trout population near its southern range limit suggests local thermal adjustment.

Conservation physiology

Verhille CE, English KK, Cocherell DE, Farrell AP, Fangue NA.
PMID: 27957333
Conserv Physiol. 2016 Dec 09;4(1):cow057. doi: 10.1093/conphys/cow057. eCollection 2016.

Transformation of earth's ecosystems by anthropogenic climate change is predicted for the 21st century. In many regions, the associated increase in environmental temperatures and reduced precipitation will have direct effects on the physiological performance of terrestrial and aquatic ectotherms...

Flexible Gallium Nitride for High-Performance, Strainable Radio-Frequency Devices.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)

Glavin NR, Chabak KD, Heller ER, Moore EA, Prusnick TA, Maruyama B, Walker DE, Dorsey DL, Paduano Q, Snure M.
PMID: 29094392
Adv Mater. 2017 Dec;29(47). doi: 10.1002/adma.201701838. Epub 2017 Nov 02.

Flexible gallium nitride (GaN) thin films can enable future strainable and conformal devices for transmission of radio-frequency (RF) signals over large distances for more efficient wireless communication. For the first time, strainable high-frequency RF GaN devices are demonstrated, whose...

The cervical myodural bridge, a review of literature and clinical implications.
