Abraham attended the Boyce Thompson Institute REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) at Cornell University this summer where she was one of 26 students learning how basic plant research can be applied to...
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the causative agent of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), a disease responsible for extensive morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite more than thirty years of research...
There is an urgent need for the development of vaccine thermostabilisation methodologies as the maintenance of a continuous and reliable cold chain remains a major hurdle to the global distribution of safe and effective...
AbstractRecent debates around the testability of the inflationary paradigm raise the question of how to model-independently discriminate it from competing scenarios. We argue that...
Abraham Lincoln is perhaps the most popular president in American history to date. American collective memory centers on his legacy as the Great Emancipator, a man who was beyond his time in terms of social equality and paved...
Rockefeller University Research Profiles are a series of scientific profiles that were published quarterly, from 1980-1990, by the Rockefeller University. Each issue features the research and achievements of an individual...
A Sign of the Times: the Vernon Terry Political Signature and Memorabilia Collection offers documentation from some of the 44 men who have held the office of president. Some of the former presidents whose signatures are included...
The Review is issued bimonthly. The cover photograph by Mitchell Valentine shows some of the mathematical representations for the properties of elementary particles, written on a blackboard by Professor Abraham Pais as he...
Historian David S. Cecelski's lecture is entitled "The Fire of Freedom: Abraham Galloway and the Slaves' Civil War" and tells the story of Galloway, a fugitive slave, Union spy and leader figure. The lecture is set for 7 p.m....

Abstract: Multilevel converters have seen rising demands in the past decades, due to their increased power ratings, enhanced power quality, low switching losses and reduced electromagnetic interference. Prominent among them are...
INTRODUCTION: In contrast to most tuberculosis (TB) high burden countries, Ethiopia has for a long time reported a very high percentage of extra pulmonary TB (EPTB), which is also reflected in population based estimations...
PURPOSE: This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the surgical and neurodevelopmental outcomes (NDO) of infant hydrocephalus. We also sought to determine whether these outcomes are disproportionately poorer in...

IHF and HU are two heterodimeric nucleoid-associated proteins (NAP) that belong to the same protein family but interact differently with the DNA. IHF is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein that bends the DNA by over 160°. HU...
Telomeres play a key role in replicative ageing and undergo age-dependent attrition in vivo. Here, we report a novel method, TelSeq, to measure average telomere length from whole genome or exome shotgun sequence data. In 260...
In this contribution, we describe a multi-omics systems biology study of the metabolic changes that occur during aging in Caenorhabditis elegans. Sampling several time points from young adulthood until early old age, our study...
Tropical peat swamp forests (PSFs) are globally important carbon stores under threat. In Southeast Asia, 35% of peatlands had been drained and converted to plantations by 2010, and much of the remaining forest had been logged...
The most intensively studied form of programmed cell death (PCD) is apoptosis,
which is characterized by stereotypical morphological features including
chromatin compaction and by a requirement for the activity of caspase...
