Building context with tumor growth modeling projects in differential equations
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)
The use of modeling projects serves to integrate, reinforce, and extend student knowledge. Here we present two projects related to tumor growth appropriate for a first course in differential equations. They illustrate the ...
Matrix Factorization Methods Applied in Microarray Data Analysis
(Inderscience, 2010)
Numerous methods have been applied to microarray data to group genes into clusters that show similar expression patterns. These methods assign each gene to a single group, which does not reflect the widely held view among ...
Hybrid modeling of cell signaling and transcriptional reprogramming and its application in C. elegans development
(Frontiers Media, 2011)
Modeling of signal driven transcriptional reprogramming is critical for understanding of organism development, human disease, and cell biology. Many current modeling techniques discount key features of the biological ...
CoGAPS matrix factorization algorithm identifies transcriptional changes in AP-2alpha target genes in feedback from therapeutic inhibition of the EGFR network
(Impact Journals, 2016)
Patients with oncogene driven tumors are treated with targeted therapeutics including EGFR inhibitors. Genomic data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) demonstrates molecular alterations to EGFR, MAPK, and PI3K pathways ...
Sneak peek: Raptors search for prey using stochastic head turns
(Central Ornithology Publication Office, 2017)
The strategies by which foraging predators decide when to redirect their gaze influence both prey detection rates and the prey's ability to detect and avoid predators. We applied statistical analyses that have been used ...
Microenvironmental Niches and Sanctuaries: A Route to Acquired Resistance
(Kiuwer, 2016)
A tumor vasculature that is functionally abnormal results in irregular gradients of metabolites and drugs within the tumor tissue. Recently, significant efforts have been committed to experimentally examine how cellular ...
A Primer on Building Library Mobile Website
(Chinese American Librarian Association, 2011)
This paper aims to help libraries develop the mobile web. It focuses on practical techniques and skills, showing in detail how to build a mobile web from scratch, and how to perform testing. It contains code examples from ...
Continuing Education in New Standards and Technologies for the Organization of Data and Information: A Report on the Cataloging and Metadata Professional Development Survey
(Association for Library Collections & Technical Services, 2018)
This study uses data from a large original survey (nearly one thousand initial respondents) to present how the cataloging and metadata community is approaching new and emerging data standards and technologies. The data ...
Children's books in the digital world : The bigger picture for our graduates
(Association of College and Research Libraries, 3/27/2015)
This paper highlights a unique pilot program to test the utility of providing award-winning children’s literature in e-book format at an academic library. A high demand for quality PreK–12 literature exists at many ...
MAGEB2 is Activated by Promoter Demethylation in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
Purpose
Although promoter hypermethylation has been an accepted means of tumor suppressor gene inactivation, activation of otherwise normally repressed proto-oncogenes by promoter demethylation has been infrequently ...
