Mike Huckabee, former Arkansas governor from 1996-2007, will be the first visitor in the series that will focus on the Constitution, potential U.S. Supreme Court vacancies and law. The hour-long event begins at 11 a.m. in the...
The interaction of trailing vortices of an upstream wing with rigid and flexible downstream wings has been investigated experimentally in a wind tunnel, using particle image velocimetry, hot-wire, force and deformation...

Osmanthus fragrans (scientific name: Osmanthus fragrans (Thunb.) Lour.) is a species of the Osmanthus genus in the family Oleaceae, and it has a long history of cultivation in China. O. fragrans is edible and is well known for...
Despite the importance of knowledge sharing between supply chain partners, supplier motivation to share remains largely unexplored. This study examines the role of buyer power in supplier motivation to share knowledge. Applying...

A contemporary challenge for education in STEM is the need to produce work-ready graduates for a fast-changing and technology-driven workplace. This study focuses on first-year undergraduate computing students who failed to...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the psychometric validity of the Visual Function Index (VF-14) for use by patients with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). METHODS: Rasch analysis was conducted in two...
BACKGROUND: We recently identified the human leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B2 (LILRB2) and its mouse ortholog-paired Ig-like receptor (PirB) as receptors for several angiopoietin-like proteins (Angptls). We also...
AbstractC-type shocks are believed to be ubiquitous in turbulent molecular clouds thanks to ambipolar diffusion. We investigate whether the drag instability in 1D isothermal...
4‐Hydroxylphenylpyruvatedioxygenase (HPPD) is a non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of 4‐hydroxylphenylpyruvate (HPP) to homogentisate (HG). In the active site, a strictly conserved 2‐His‐1‐Glu...
The distribution of immune complexes has been studied in mouse spleen stimulated to contain many germinal centers (GC?s). Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-anti-HRP complexes were used as an appropriately precise and sensitive model....
Good genes theories of sexual selection predict that polygamy will be associated with more efficient removal of deleterious alleles (purifying selection), due to the alignment of sexual selection with natural selection. On the...
Larry Durham '80, '87, Mike Forrest '98, Bob Breakfield, Bob Thompson and Larry Carroll were honored during the 6 p.m. event in the DiGiorgio Campus Center Ballroom. The Pinnacle Awards are held biennially.
The volunteers were: Ray McKetty '17; Caressa Fernandez '17; and elementary education major Mike Cahill. Most of the children the volunteers worked with increased their reading capacity by more than 20 words per minute.

Naive pluripotency can be maintained in medium with two inhibitors plus leukemia inhibitory factor (2i/LIF) supplementation, which primarily affects canonical WNT, FGF/ERK, and JAK/STAT3 signaling. However, whether one of these...
BACKGROUND: The optimal procedure for combining radiotherapy (RT) with tamoxifen treatment is controversial as RT may alter the pharmacokinetics and biotransformation of tamoxifen. The present study investigated this potential...
BACKGROUND: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a relatively common and disabling psychiatric disorder whose pathophysiology is incompletely understood. In this study, we utilized magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in an...
Winthrop's Model United Nations will celebrate its 30th anniversary March 22-24. Key speakers will include Mike Mannina of the Heritage Foundation and Swadesh M. Rana of Columbia University.
The Mike and Jennifer Fayed Scholarship will support students studying finance with a concentration in financial planning. The Fayeds, who met at Winthrop, live in Belmont, North Carolina.

Reduced fetal nutrition and rapid postnatal growth accelerates the aging phenotype in many organ systems; however, effects on the immune system are unclear. We addressed this by studying the thymus from a rat model of...
PURPOSE: Investigate the extended release behaviour of compacts containing mixtures of hydrophilic HPMC and PEO in hydrating media of differing ionic strengths. METHODS: The extended release behaviour of various HPMC:PEO...
