Characterization of microRNA-Protein Interactions and Genome-Scale Screening for Modifiers of LDL Cholesterol Uptake
(2020)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate protein expression via post-transcriptional silencing of target genes. These small RNAs are implicated in the regulation of nearly all biological processes, and ...
Michigan School Siting Guidelines: Taking the Environment into Account
(2020-07-03)
Michigan currently does not have a statewide approach to school siting that takes into account environmental quality. In 2011, the United States Environmental Protection Agency released national voluntary School Siting ...
The Heisenberg Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics (Talk Slides)
(2020-03-13)
In his book `Physics and Philosophy', Werner Heisenberg posited a distinction between the quantum and the classical worlds, which he characterized in terms of "potentialities or possibilities" versus "things and facts". ...
Fifty Years of Research on the Madden‐Julian Oscillation: Recent Progress, Challenges, and Perspectives
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.American Geophysical Union, 2020-09-16)
Since its discovery in the early 1970s, the crucial role of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) in the global hydrological cycle and its tremendous influence on high‐impact climate and weather extremes have been well ...
Full lifetime perspectives on the costs and benefits of lay‐date variation in tree swallows
(University of Chicago PressWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2020-09)
Animals must balance various costs and benefits when deciding when to breed. The costs and benefits of breeding at different times have received much attention, but most studies have been limited to investigating short‐term ...
Air Quality Impacts at an E- Waste Site in Ghana Using Flexible, Moderate- Cost and Quality- Assured Measurements
(University of GhanaWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2020-08)
Air quality information is scarce in low- and middle- income countries. This study describes the application of moderate cost approaches that can provide spatial and temporal information on concentrations of particulate ...

Rattlesnake colouration affects detection by predators
(SAS Institute IncWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2020-08)
Crypsis, or the ability of an animal to avoid detection by other animals, is strongly impacted by an animal’s colouration and pattern. Crypsis may be especially important for ambush foragers, which spend much of their time ...
On Demand Light‐Degradable Polymers Based on 9,10‐Dialkoxyanthracenes
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2020-08)
Light induced degradation of polymers has drawn increasing interest due to the need for externally controllable modulation of materials properties. However, the portfolio of polymers, that undergo precisely controllable ...
