Barriers to success: understanding the student experience
(2018-03)At The College of New Jersey, faculty from the School of Science have partnered with the institutional Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) program to revitalize the existing STEM Summer Scholars bridge program in order to ... -
Base-Free Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones Using Cp*Ir(III)Cl Pyridinesulfonamide Complexes
(2015)Although examples of iridium complexes containing diamine ligands that catalyze transfer hydrogenation are known, few examples exist of iridium complexes that contain pyridinesulfonamide ligands, and the catalytic activity ... -
The battle for suburbia: Japanese stilt-grass vs. garlic mustard – and deer
(2015)Fragmented, suburban forests are essential for biodiversity and ecosystem services, and they offer many human communities a connection to nature. However, these forests are challenged by the dual problem of overabundant ... -
Bayesian decomposition analysis of bacterial phylogenomic profiles
(Adis, 2005)BACKGROUND: The past two decades have seen the appearance of new infectious diseases and the reemergence of old diseases previously thought to be under control. At the same time, the effectiveness of the existing ... -
Bayesian decomposition: analyzing microarray data within a biological context
(Wiley, 2004-05)The detection and correct identification of cancer, especially at an early stage, are vitally important for patient survival and quality of life. Since signaling pathways play critical roles in cancer development and ... -
Becoming student ready: transforming institutional structures and cultures to support success for all students
(2018-03)With initial funding from the National Science Foundation, we have created new programs to provide scholarships, mentored research experiences, and coordinated support programs to undergraduates who are typically ... -
BeoBLAST: distributed BLAST and PSI-BLAST on a Beowulf cluster
(Oxford University Press, 2002)BeoBLAST is an integrated software package that handles user requests and distributes BLAST and PSI-BLAST searches to nodes of a Beowulf cluster, thus providing a simple way to implement a scalable BLAST system on top of ... -
Beyond the horizon: restructuring breast cancer education and screening for a healthier tomorrow
(2024)Each year in the United States (U.S.) approximately 42,211 women and men die from breast cancer (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Cancer Institute [CDC], ... -
Bifurcations in the Kuramoto model on graphs
(American Institute of Physics, 2018-07-27)In his classical work, Kuramoto analytically described the onset of synchronization in all-to-all coupled networks of phase oscillators with random intrinsic frequencies. Specifically, he identified a critical value of the ... -
Bifurcations in valveless pumping techniques from a coupled fluid-structure-electrophysiology model in heart development
(2017-12-06)We explore an embryonic heart model that couples electrophysiology and muscle-force generation to flow induced using a 2𝘋 fluid-structure interaction framework based on the immersed boundary method. The propagation of ... -
Biologically-informed neural networks guide mechanistic modeling from sparse experimental data
(Public Library of Science, 2020-12-01)Biologically-informed neural networks (BINNs), an extension of physics-informed neural networks [1], are introduced and used to discover the underlying dynamics of biological systems from sparse experimental data. In the ... -
Biomechanics of Invertebrate Shells
(2019)Marine biofouling is the growth of organisms on human-made structures placed in the ocean. Biofouling is a major issue for naval and maritime industries, with mitigation expenses costing millions of dollars each year. ... -
Biomedical informatics in cancer research
(Springer, 2010) -
Black = Liberal? Social Group Categories are Imbued with Ideological Meaning, but Some More Than Others
(2015)We studied the extent to which various groups are imbued with inherent ideological meaning as well as the consequences of inherent ideological meaning on patterns of prejudice and willingness to vote. Across all three ... -
Bleeding-heart liberals and hard-hearted conservatives: subtle political dehumanization through differential attributions of human nature and human uniqueness traits
(PsychOpen, 2013)This research demonstrated that human nature (HN) and human uniqueness (HU) traits capture the content of Americans’ stereotypes about liberals and conservatives, respectively. Consistent with expectations derived from ... -
Bone mechanical property changes in rats exposed to Galactic Cosmic Radiation
(2022)As NASA prepares to venture deeper into space and increase spaceflight duration, sources of potential harm for astronaut health must be explored. Galactic Cosmic Radiation (GCR), a primary source of radiation from the Milky ... -
Bone microstructural changes in rat tibias exposed to space radiation
(2021)Human health outside of the Earth’s atmosphere has become a greater concern as humans have lived on the International Space station for over 20 years. Radiation poses a risk to astronaut health, yet there is little research ... -
Bone Strength Changes in Rats Exposed to Proton Radiation
(2020)Once outside the Earth’s magnetic field astronauts are exposed to a range of particles that can alter their biological makeup. Exposure to radiation has been shown to increase bone porosity and thus an increased fracture ... -
A bookless library, part I : Relocating print materials to off-site storage
(Routledge, 2013)This article presents an analysis of the feasibility of a bookless library in a research setting. As spaces for collections are being converted for increased study and community spaces, many libraries have been moving ... -
A bookless library, part II : Managing access services with no in-house collections
(Routledge, 2013)In the spring of 2011, the Penrose Library at the University of Denver began the process of storing all materials, services, and staff to temporary locations in preparation for a building renovation project. The library ...
