- Description:
- The dataset was collected to assess the clinical benefits of the latest generation Össur Power Knee with and without phase-based control compared to traditional passive microprocessor-controlled knees. The study included seven above-knee amputee participants and examined performance across a series of sit/stand and walking experiments. Data captured includes event logs, processed inverse kinematics and dynamics data, scaled OpenSim skeletons for each session, and raw motion capture and force plate data for various test conditions (HKIC, OSSR, PRES). All data is text-based and can be viewed in any compatible text editor. Data can be visualized in OpenSim. The dataset is organized by subject and test condition. Each folder includes a scaled subject OpenSim skeleton (*_skeleton.osim), a marker file for a range of motion trial (*_range_of_motion.trc), and three test folders each containing: Event Logs (*.event_log.csv): Time-stamped records of experimental events. Inverse Kinematics Data (*_IK.mot): Joint angle trajectories. Inverse Dynamics Data (*_ID.mot): Joint moment trajectories. Raw Marker Data (*_markers.csv): 3D coordinates of motion capture markers. Ground Reaction Force Data (*_GRF.mot): Force plate measurements of ground reactions during movement tasks.

- Description:
- SH-SY5Y cells were differentiated into neuron-like cells in the presence of continuous and environmentally relevant levels of lead (Pb). Cells were collected every three days (beginning on day 6 of the 18 day protocol) for the purposes of RNA extraction and subsequent sequencing.

- Description:
- Our final sample included 445 participants. Most identified as White (65.0%), non-Hispanic (82.8%), and heterosexual (60.0%). The study revealed disparities in comfort levels regarding receiving home-based STI-test kits at home and other household members seeing them; responses varied by education level, gender identity, and U.S. region. Individuals with less than a high school education were less likely to feel comfortable self-collecting for STI testing.

- Description:
- Images were collected as part of a project investigating the interpretation of BMP signaling dynamics by differentiating human pluripotent stem cells. Image files are in the proprietary Imaris (.ims) file format. MATLAB and Python code for image processing and quantification is provided with the data and at https://github.com/seth414/HeemskerkLabMethods. Processed data originally published in Teague et al., 2024 (see below).

- Description:
- In this study, we took advantage of the randomized allocation of the US EPA's funding for school bus replacements and retrofits to causally assess the impacts of upgrading buses through the EPA’s national School Bus Rebate Program on attendance, educational performance, and community air quality (PM2.5). Specifically, we used classical intent-to-treat analyses for randomized controlled trials to compare the changes in school district average attendance, test scorers (reading language arts and math), and PM2.5 levels after vs before the 2012 through 2017 lotteries by funding selection status.

- Description:
- We took advantage of the randomized allocation of the US EPA's funding for school bus replacements and retrofits to causally assess the impacts of upgrading buses through the EPA’s national School Bus Rebate Program on various outcomes including attendance, educational performance, and community air quality (PM2.5). Specifically, we used classical intent-to-treat analyses for randomized controlled trials to compare the changes in school district average attendance, test scores (reading language arts and math), and PM2.5 levels after vs before the 2012 through 2017 lotteries by funding selection status. We used overall district attendance rates and average standardized test scores since rates were not available for only school-bus riders.
