Not All Isolation Effects are Created Equally: Evidence for Greater Processing Requirements for Semantic vs. Physical Isolation Effects
(2019)The finding that memory is better for an item that differs from the surrounding items is known as the von Restorff effect or isolation effect (von Restorff, 1933). Isolated items can differ physically (e.g., a different ... -
Note: Sensitivity enhancement in continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance: Adaptive signal averaging versus a moving average
(American Institute of Physics, 2/2/2010) -
A novel connection between [PSI+] prion formation and RNA splicing in S. cerevisiae
(2022)Relatively new studies on prions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae show that some protein prion conformations may be beneficial to cell survival in response to environmental stress. Sup35, a translation termination release factor, ... -
A novel COVID-19 epidemiological model with explicit susceptible and asymptomatic isolation compartments reveals unexpected consequences of timing social distancing
(Elsevier, 2021-02)Motivated by the current COVID-19 epidemic, this work introduces an epidemiological model in which separate compartments are used for susceptible and asymptomatic “socially distant” populations. Distancing directives are ... -
A Novel Cross-Disciplinary Multi-Institute Approach to Translational Cancer Research: Lessons Learned from Pennsylvania Cancer Alliance Bioinformatics Consortium (PCABC)
(Libertas Academica, 2007)Background: The Pennsylvania Cancer Alliance Bioinformatics Consortium (PCABC, http://www.pcabc.upmc.edu) is one of the first major project-based initiatives stemming from the Pennsylvania Cancer Alliance that was funded ... -
Novel Insight into Mutational Landscape of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
(Public Library of Science, 2014)Development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is characterized by accumulation of mutations in several oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. We have formerly described the mutation pattern of HNSCC and ... -
Novel recessed curvature electrode to increase selectivity in deep brain stimulation
(2021)Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a clinical technique utilized in the treatment of neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, and essential tremors. Surgically implanted, DBS electrodes are cylindrical and typically ... -

Novel therapeutic nano-particles (lipocores): trapping poorly water soluble compounds
(Elsevier, 4/25/2000)The development of stable spherical lipid-coated drug particles that are termed ‘lipocores’ is reported here. Unlike conventional lipid-based particles (i.e. liposomes, emulsions, micelles), these particles are comprised ... -
A Novel Three-Phase Model of Brain Tissue Microstructure
(Public Library of Science, 8/15/2008)We propose a novel biologically constrained three-phase model of the brain microstructure. Designing a realistic model is tantamount to a packing problem, and for this reason, a number of techniques from the theory of ... -
Nurse knowledge of autism and aging
(2022)The prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in adults and seniors is increasing in the United States, with an incidence of 1 in every 44 individuals. Adults with ASD carry a substantial burden from medical comorbidities, ... -

Ocean acidification alters properties of the exoskeleton in adult Tanner crabs, Chionoecetes bairdi
(The Company of Biologists, 2021-02)Ocean acidification can affect the ability of calcifying organisms to build and maintain mineralized tissue. In decapod crustaceans, the exoskeleton is a multilayered structure composed of chitin, protein and mineral, ... -
Ocean acidification leads to altered micromechanical properties of the mineralized cuticle in juvenile red and blue king crabs
(Elsevier, 2017)Ocean acidification (OA) adversely affects a broad range of marine calcifying organisms. Crustaceans, however, exhibit mixed responses to OA, with growth or survival negatively affected in some species, but unaffected or ... -
