326 Lupton, John MarkProbing the electrode-polymer interface in conjugated polymer devices with surface-enhanced Raman scatteringA crucial consideration in organic devices is the role of the interface between a metal electrode and the active polymer material. Here, we use the conjugated polymer poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyl-oxy)-1,4-phenylene-vinylene] (MEH-PPV) with model gold and silver electrodes to perform surface-enhanc...2012-01-01
327 Capecchi, Mario R.Production of selenoprotein P (Sepp1) by hepatocytes is central to selenium homeostasisBackground: Sepp1 transports selenium, but its complete role in selenium homeostasis is not known. Results: Deletion of Sepp1 in hepatocytes increases liver selenium at the expense of other tissues and decreases whole-bodyselenium by increasing excretion. Conclusion: Sepp1 production by hepatocytes ...2012-01-01
328 Goller, FranzProsthetic Avian vocal organ controlled by a freely behaving bird based on a low dimensional model of the biomechanical peripheryBecause of the parallels found with human language production and acquisition, birdsong is an ideal animal model to study general mechanisms underlying complex, learned motor behavior. The rich and diverse vocalizations of songbirds emerge as a result of the interaction between a pattern generator i...2012-01-01
329 Strassberg, DonaldPsychopathy among pedophilic and non-pedophilic child molestersResearch is making increasing clear that, among men who sexually offend against prepubescent children, there are at least two subgroups, pedophiles and non-pedophiles, and that the groups differ in many important respects. Our ability to understand the etiology, nature, and most effective treatment ...2012-01-01
330 Scarpulla, MichaelPulsed and continuous wave solid phase laser annealing of electrodeposited CuInSe2 thin filmsCu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film photovoltaic absorber layers are primarily synthesized by vacuum based techniques at industrial scale. In this work, we investigate non-vacuum film synthesis by electrochemical deposition coupled with pulsed laser annealing (PLA) and or continuous wave laser annealing (...2012-01-01
331 Yang, HaoriPulsed photofission delayed gamma ray detection for nuclear material identificationInnovative systems with increased sensitivity and resolution are in great demand to detect diversion and to prevent misuse in support of nuclear materials management for the U.S. fuel cycle. Nuclear fission is the most important multiplicative process involved in non-destructive active interrogation...2012-01-01

333 Gerig, GuidoQuantifying regional growth patterns through longitudinal analysis of distances between multimodal MR intensity distributionsQuantitative analysis of early brain development through imaging is critical for identifying pathological development, which may in turn affect treatment procedures. We propose a framework for analyzing spatiotemporal patterns of brain maturation by quantifying intensity changes in longitudinal MR i...2012-01-01
334 Gerig, GuidoQuantitative tract-based white matter development from birth to age 2 yearsFew large-scale studies have been done to characterize the normal human brain white matter growth in the first years of life. We investigated white matter maturation patterns in major fiber pathways in a large cohort of healthy young children from birth to age two using diffusion parameters fraction...White matter maturation; Axonal myelination; Early brain development; Diffusion properties; DTI atlas; Fiber tracking; Functional regression analysis2012-01-01
335 Berzins, MartinRadiation modeling using the Uintah heterogeneous CPU/GPU runtime systemThe Uintah Computational Framework was developed to provide an environment for solving fluid-structure interaction problems on structured adaptive grids on large-scale, long-running, data-intensive problems. Uintah uses a combination of fluid-flow solvers and particle-based methods for solids, toget...2012-01-01

338 Von Arnim, Rudiger LennartRebalancing through expenditure and price changesThis paper puts forth a Neo-Kaleckian open economy model of two countries in order to investigate adjustment of US-China external imbalances. First, a stylized fixed mark-up model is presented, and discussed based on graphical analysis. Second, we present estimates of bilateral income and price elas...2012-12-01
339 Haber, MatthewReframing the ethical issues in part-human animal research: the unbearable ontology of inexorable moral confusionResearch that involves the creation of animals with human-derived parts opens the door to potentially valuable scientific and therapeutic advances, yet invokes unsettling moral questions. Critics and champions alike stand to gain from clear identification and careful consideration of the strongest e...2012-01-01

341 Adler, Frederick R.Reply:We appreciate the comments of Drs. Craig and Simpson and Drs. Mullins and Schwartz, and the challenge they raise to make MALD more believable, comprehensible, and usable. Acetaminophen (APAP) toxicity is indeed a complex process involving multiple steps. Although the underlying mathematics is more i...2012-01-01

343 Mishchenko, EugeneResonant finite-size impurities in graphene, unitary limit, and Friedel oscillationsA unitary limit for model point scatterers in graphene is known to reveal low-energy resonances. The same limit could be achieved from hybridization of band electrons with the localized impurity level positioned in the vicinity of the Fermi level. The finite-size defects represent an easier realizat...2012-01-01
344 Stoddart, JoanRethinking information delivery: using a natural language processing application for point-of-care data discoveryObjective: This paper examines the use of Semantic MEDLINE, a natural language processing application enhanced with a statistical algorithm known as Combo, as a potential decision support tool for clinicians. Semantic MEDLINE summarizes text in PubMed citations, transforming it into compact declarat...2012-01-01
345 Slev, Patricia R.Review: Host genomics and HCV personalized medicineIt is estimated that there are 4.0 million individuals chronically infected with Hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the US. Due to the slow progression of disease, the incidence of HCV has declined in the last two decades. However, it is anticipated that the number of individuals requiring treatment for liv...2012-01-01
346 Gondolo, PaoloRing-like features in directional dark matter detectionWe discuss a novel dark matter signature relevant for directional detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). For heavy enough WIMPs and low enough recoil energies, the maximum of the recoil rate is not in the direction of the average WIMP arrival direction but in a ring around it at ...2012-01-01
