In this fascinating book, Geoffrey Smith explores the lives and experiences of those Royalists who served Charles I and Charles II as agents, spies and conspirators during the 1640s and 1650s. He takes us into a murky world of...
The t(12;21) (p13;q22) chromosomal translocation resulting in the ETV6/RUNX1 fusion gene is the most frequent structural cytogenetic abnormality in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The erythropoietin receptor...
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) prevent autoimmunity and inflammation by suppressing the activation of other T cells and antigen presenting cells. The role of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling in Treg is controversial. Some...
Marilyn Smith, professor of management and Winthrop's 2013 Distinguished Professor, said she will talk about change. Like many professionals and educators who have had to learn technology for a rapidly changing world, Smith said...
Buchanan-Smith is the founder and principal of Buchanan-Smith LLC and the author of several books. The 6 p.m. event will be held on the second floor of Tillman Hall where the 13 graduating seniors will display their portfolios.
Faculty members Jane Smith, English, and Jennifer Disney, political science, were named Distinguished Professor and Outstanding Junior Professor. The awards were presented May 5 during spring commencement.
We calculate, for the first time, the NNLO QCD corrections to identified
heavy hadron production at hadron colliders. The calculation is based on a
flexible numeric framework which allows the calculation of any distribution of
a...
Much is known about melatonin and its role in the circadian regulation of vertebrate organisms. However, melatonin has not been studied extensively in more primitive bilaterians. The aim of this study was to analyze the...
Mahony will begin his duties on July 1, 2015. The President's House will be home to Mahony, his wife Laura and their two children, Gavin, 15, and Elena, 12. Dr. Daniel F. Mahony, dean of the College of Education, Health and...
The type II restriction endonuclease TseI recognizes the DNA target sequence 5'-G^CWGC-3' (where W = A or T) and cleaves after the first G to produce fragments with three-base 5'-overhangs. We have determined that it is a...
The magnetic properties of heavy-hole excitons in wide quantum wells of ZnTe with ZnxMg1-xTe barriers have been studied with photoluminescence and reflectivity measurements. The exciton magnetic moments (as characterized by the...
Professor Tony Smith was born in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1947. He completed his LLB and LLM at Canterbury University, interspersed with a short-lived sortie into legal work with the Treasury. It was during these formative...
The PI3K pathway has emerged as a key regulator of regulatory T cell (Treg) development and homeostasis and is required for full Treg-mediated suppression. To identify new genes involved in PI3K-dependent suppression, we...
This interview was conducted by Dr. George Garrison with Booker T. Brown with a focus on the History of Emmett Scott High School. Emmett Scott was the segregated high school for African-Americans, which was named after Emmett...
The thymus provides a nurturing environment for the differentiation and selection of T cells, a process orchestrated by their interaction with multiple thymic cell types. We used single-cell RNA sequencing to create a cell...
The magnetic properties of heavy-hole excitons in wide quantum wells of ZnTe with ZnxMg1-xTe barriers have been studied with photoluminescence and reflectivity measurements. The exciton magnetic moments (as characterized by the...
The clinical course of autoimmune and infectious disease varies greatly, even between individuals with the same condition. An understanding of the molecular basis for this heterogeneity could lead to significant improvements in...
Dendritic cells (DCs) have the capacity to initiate immune responses, but it has been postulated that they may also be involved in inducing peripheral tolerance. To examine the function of DCs in the steady state we devised an...
Individuals with potential exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) do not necessarily develop PCR or antibody positivity, suggesting that some individuals may clear subclinical infection before...
Daniel Mayer, leadership educator and researcher into the epistemology of biology, has long reflected on the nature of organization, both of organisms and of organizations. This is the topic of his recently completed PhD...
Individuals with potential exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) do not necessarily develop PCR or antibody positivity, suggesting that some individuals may clear subclinical infection before...
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) play a central role in adaptive immunity by transducing signals from the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) via production of PIP3. PI3Kδ is a heterodimer composed of a p110δ catalytic subunit...
