 | Coley, Phyllis D. | Antifungal depsidone metabolites from Cordyceps dipterigena, an endophytic fungus antagonistic to the phytopathogen gibberella fujikuroi | Among thirty four endophytic fungal strains screened for in vitro antagonism, the endophytic fungus Cordyceps dipterigena was found to strongly inhibit mycelial growth of the plant pathogenic fungus Gibberella fujikuroi. Two new depsidone metabolites, cordycepsidone A (1) and cordycepsidone B (2), w... | | 2012 |

 | Gerig, Guido | Brain Changes in Traumatic Brain Injury | Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when an external force traumatically in- jures the brain, typically due to car accidents, accidental falls, and wartime injuries. It is a major cause of death and disability worldwide, especially in children and young adults, and it affects 1.7 million Americans a... | | 2012 |

 | Gerig, Guido | Brain imaging studies: high throughput by automatic processing pipeline | We have collected 711 neonate brain MR images from an ongoing autism study (Autism Centers of Excellence - Infant Brain Imaging Study ACE-IBIS) . Each infant gets 3 scans at 6month, 1year and 2 years of age in order to characterize brain growth trajetories. | | 2012 |

 | Coley, Phyllis D. | Coibanoles, a new class of meroterpeniods produced by pycnoporus sanguineus | Three new terpenoids of mixed biosynthetic origin were isolated from the culture filtrate of the endophytic fungus Pycnoporus sanguineus. Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analyses. We have named these tricyclic and tetracyclic metabolites ?coibanoles A?C? in reference to... | | 2012 |

 | Gerig, Guido | Continuous Trajectories from Discrete Anatomical Shapes | The study of time dependent shapes is an emerging field in Computational Anatomy, with potential application to early brain development, aging studies, or the analysis of evolving pathologic structures. As longitudinal data becomes more widely available, the need for computer models of anatomical ev... | | 2012 |

 | Gerig, Guido | Down syndrome: Bridging Genes, Brain and Cognition | Down syndrome subjects show cognitive differences that can be characterized in the white matter integrity of specific brain connectivity pathways. Brain white matter analysis can highlight relationship of genotype and brain connectivity analysis. | | 2012 |

 | Adler, Frederick R. | Mathematical modeling the age dependence of Epstein-Barr virus associated infectious mononucleosis | Most people get Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection at young age and are asymptomatic. Pri-mary EBV infection in adolescents and young adults however, often leads to infectious mononucleosis (IM) with symptoms including fever, fatigue, and sore throat that can persist for months. Expansion in the num... | | 2012 |

 | Gerig, Guido | Neuro imaging research lab | Current key research topics are segmentation of MRI/DTI of the early developing brain in healthy and high-risk sub- jects, longitudinal analysis of multi-shape complexes to describe growth trajectories of brain structures, building of nor- mative population atlases of volumetric images and embedded ... | | 2012 |

 | Olivera, Baldomero M. | Novel venom peptides from the cone snail Conus pulicarius discovered through next-generation sequencing of its venom duct transcriptome | The venom peptides (i.e., conotoxins or conopeptides) that species in the genus Conus collectively produce are remarkably diverse, estimated to be around 50,000 to 140,000, but the pace of discovery and characterization of these peptides have been rather slow. To date, only a minor fraction have be... | | 2012 |

 | Farmer, Colleen G. | The pulmonary anatomy of alligator mississippiensis and its similarity to the avian respiratory system | Using gross dissections and computed tomography we studied the lungs of juvenile American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis). Our findings indicate that both the external and internal morphology of the lungs is strikingly similar to the embryonic avian respiratory system (lungs + air sacs). We... | | 2012 |

 | Armentrout, Peter B. | The simplest b 2 + ion: determining its structure from its energetics by a direct comparison of the threshold collision-induced dissociation of protonated oxazolone and diketopiperazine | Energy-resolved collision-induced dissociation of b2 + ions derived from protonated GGG and GAG are compared with that of protonated diketopiperazine (H+DKP). Absolute dissociation cross sections are obtained using a guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometer and analyzed using statistical methods. T... | | 2012 |

 | Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Spectral analysis of near threshold random lasers | Emission spectra from random lasing systems typically have numerous narrow resonant lines. When excited very near to the laser threshold there are fewer resonant lines which clarify the emission spectrum analysis. We studied three different random lasing systems including ?-conjugated polymer films... | | 2012 |

 | Mattis, Daniel C. | A contribution to the many-fermion problem | In this work we reexamine the many-fermion problem in arbitrary dimensions. It is shown that in two dimensions or higher, the Hamiltonian of interacting fermions can be separated into individual nonintersecting sectors labeled by the wave-vector q. Within each sector the Hamiltonian maps onto a gene... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Dale, Colin | A novel human-infection-derived bacterium provides insights into the evolutionary origins of mutualistic insect-bacterial symbioses | Despite extensive study, little is known about the origins of the mutualistic bacterial endosymbionts that inhabit approximately 10% of the world's insects. In this study, we characterized a novel opportunistic human pathogen, designated ‘‘strain HS,'' and found that it is a close relative of th... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Adler, Frederick R. | A time since recovery model with varying rates of loss of immunity | For many infectious diseases, immunity wanes over time. The majority of SIRS models assume that this loss of immunity takes place at a constant rate. We study temporary immunity within a SIRS model structure if the rate of loss of immunity can depend on the time since recovery from disease.We determ... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Gondolo, Paolo | Aberration features in directional dark matter detection | The motion of the Earth around the Sun causes an annual change in the mag-nitude and direction of the arrival velocity of dark matter particles on Earth, in a way analogous to aberration of stellar light. In directional detectors, aberration of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) modulates ... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Mattis, Daniel C. | An expanded Luttinger model | This paper generalizes Luttinger's model by introducing curvature (d2ε (k) dk2 ≠ 0 ) into the kinetic energy. An exact solution for arbitrary interactions is still possible in principle, but it now requires disentangling the eigenvalue spectrum of an harmonic string of interacting boson fields at... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Bowling, David R. | Assessing filtering of mountaintop CO2 mole fractions for application to inverse models of biosphere-atmosphere carbon exchange | There is a widely recognized need to improve our understanding of biosphere-atmosphere carbon exchanges in areas of complex terrain including the United States Mountain West. CO2 fluxes over mountainous terrain are often difficult to measure due to unusual and complicated influences associated with ... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Saam, Brian | Asymptotic and intermediate long-time behavior of nuclear free induction decays in polycrystalline solids and powders | Free induction decay (FID) measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in a polycrystalline solid is the isotropic average of the FIDs for individual single crystallites. It has been recently proposed theoretically and verified experimentally that the long-time behavior of single-crystal FIDs has t... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Ehleringer, James R. | Bayesian integration of isotope ratio for geographic sourcing of castor beans | Recent years have seen an increase in the forensic interest associated with the poison ricin, which is extracted from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant. Both light element (C, N, O, and H) and strontium (Sr) isotope ratios have previously been used to associate organic material with geographic... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Bromley, Benjamin C. | Binary disruption by massive black holes: hypervelocity stars, S stars, and tidal disruption events | We examine whether disrupted binary stars can fuel black hole growth. In this mechanism, tidal disruption produces a single hypervelocity star (HVS) ejected at high velocity and a former companion star bound to the black hole. After a cluster of bound stars forms, orbital diffusion allows the black ... | | 2012-01-01 |
