Dart, Emily | Diversity and metabolic potential of microbial communities in a site of continental serpentinization | The geochemical process of serpentinization releases energy and organic carbon: two of the basic requirements need ed to support life. Sites of active serpentinization in the deep subsurface provide the intriguing possibility of a non-photosynthetically -supported biosphere. However, serpentinizatio... | Microbial ecology - Research; Serpentine - Environmental aspects; Gros Morne National Park (N.L.); Syntrophomonadaceae; Serpentinizaiton; Tabeland Ophiolite | 2016-05 |

Yang, Kevin | The Soluble (PRO) Renin Receptor does not Influence Lithium-Induced Diabetes Insipidus but does Provoke Beigning of White Adipose Tissue in Mice | Earlier we reported that the recombinant soluble (pro) renin receptor sPRR-His upregulates renal aquoporin-2 (AQP2) expression, and attenuates polyuria associated with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) induced by vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R) antagonism. Patients that receive lithium therapy ... | | |

Miller, Curtis | Explaining Utah's gender gap in wages | Women earn less than men, and the disparity between men's and women's wages in Utah is larger than the same disparity at the national or regional levels. Little is known as to why Utah has a larger wage gap than the nation or its neighbors. In this paper, we use Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition to decom... | Women -- Employment -- Utah; Wage differentials -- Utah; Gender gap | 2015-08 |
