Dannhauer, Moritz | Visualizing simulated electrical fields from electroencephalography and transcranial electric brain stimulation: a comparative evaluation | Electrical activity of neuronal populations is a crucial aspect of brain activity. This activity is not measured directly but recorded as electrical potential changes using head surface electrodes (electroencephalogram - EEG). Head surface electrodes can also be deployed to inject electrical current... | 2014-01-01 | |

Zimmer, Zachary | Distinguishing the spending preferences of seniors | One thousand, four hundred and six seniors were asked about their consumer spending preferences. While some could name a product spending preference, others could not. This study examines the characteristics that best distinguish those elders who are uninterested in spending on consumer products fro... | Spending preferences; Seniors | 1996 |

Gondolo, Paolo | Phase-space distribution of unbound dark matter near the sun | We resolve discrepancies in previous analyses of the flow of collisionless dark matter particles in the Sun's gravitational field. We determine the phase-space distribution of the flow both numerically, tracing particle trajectories back in time, and analytically, providing a simple correct relati... | Phase-space distribution; Gravitational field; Velocity functions | 2006-10 |

Flynn, John J. | Survey of injunctive relief under state and federal antitrust laws | Relatively little has been written about equitable relief under state and federal antitrust laws.1 Equity power in antitrust enforcement means much more than the mere power to restrain a defendant from doing an act for which the plaintiff has no "remedy at law," to order a defendant to remove a nuis... | Statute; Directive | 1967 |

Wright, Scott D. | Age wave is here : the aging of the baby boomers November 2010 | Paul C. Light (1998) wrote one of the first books to examine the complexities of the baby boom generation and their future implications and impact. The book titled, "Baby Boomers", investigated what unified and what divided the generation and reflected on the potential for "golden days" (would it b... | 2010-08 | |

Jameson, Kenneth P. | Dollarization in Latin America: wave of the future or flight to the past? | Ecuador undertook official dollarization in 2000 when it destroyed its own currency, the sucre, and adopted the dollar. El Salvador converted all financial instruments to dollars, and Guatemala now allows transactions to be carried out in any currency. Both assumed that the dollar would soon displac... | Domestic currencies; Latin America; Dollarization | 2003 |

Hultine, Kevin | Ecohydrological implications of woody plant encroachment | Increases in the abundance or density of woody plants in historically semiarid and arid grassland ecosystems have important ecological, hydrological, and socioeconomic implications. Using a simplified water-balance model, we propose a framework for conceptualizing how woody plant encroachment is li... | Carbon cycling; ecohydrology; evapotranspiration | 2005 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Hoxb8 is required for normal grooming behavior in mice. | Repertoires of grooming behaviors critical to survival are exhibited by most animal species, including humans. Genes that influence this complex behavior are unknown. We report that mice with disruptions of Hoxb8 show, with 100% penetrance, excessive grooming leading to hair removal and lesions.

Gardner Michael K.; Woltz, Dan J. | Representation of memory for order of mental operations in cognitive tasks | Recent research shows that people learning a cognitive task acquire a memory for the order of operations applied, independent of the data to which those operations were applied. We designed two experiments to show how this sequence memory is represented. Experiment 1 compared predictions based on... | Cognitive skills; Operation sequences; Sequential skills | 2002 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Hematopoietic origin of pathological grooming in Hoxb8 mutant mice | Mouse Hoxb8 mutants show unexpected behavior manifested by compulsive grooming and hair removal similar to humans with OCD-spectrum disorder trichotillomania. Since Hox gene disruption often has pleiotropic effects, the root cause of this behavioral deficit was unclear. Here we report that, in the b... | 2010 | |

Hawkes, Kristen | Why hunter-gatherers work: An ancient version of the problem of public goods | From the abstract: People who hunt and gather for a living share some resources more widely than others. A favored hypothesis to explain the differential sharing is that giving up portions of large, unpredictable resources obligates others to return shares of them later, reducing everyone's variance... | Hunter-gatherer societies; Public goods | 2001-08 |
