Ionospheric Convection Signatures of Tail Fast Flows During Substorms and Poleward Boundary Intensifications (Pbi)
We study here a series of bursts of fast tail flow that occurred on 5 March 2008 when four of the THEMIS probes were aligned in the tail from mid-tail to inner magnetosphere and were in good conjunction with the Sondrestrom Incoherent Scatter Radar.

The Design Pattern: A Blueprint for a New Domain-specific Assessment
Assessment researchers at SRI International in Menlo Park, CA, designed a prototype scenario-based assessment to measure how well college students learn the big ideas of biology and economics and how to apply those ideas in their everyday lives.

Dynamic LDPC Codes for Nanoscale Memory with Varying Fault Arrival Rates
In this paper, we propose using a special variant of low-density parity codes (LDPCs) – Euclidean Geometry LDPC (EG-LDPC) codes – to enable dynamic changes in the level of fault tolerance.

Quantitative Study of the Antagonistic Effect of (-)-Cis-1-Methyl-7-[[4-(2, 6-Dichlorophenyl)Piperidin-1-Yl]Methyl]-6,7,8,9-Tetrahydro-5H-Benzocyclohepten- 5-Ol (Sb-612111)on Nociceptin/Orphanin Fq-Mediated Potassium Channel Activation in Rat Periaqueductal gray slices
This study quantitatively investigated the effect of (−)-cis-1-Methyl-7-[[4-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)piperidin-1 -yl]methyl]-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-ol (SB-612111), a novel non-peptide ligand of NOP receptor, on the native NOP receptors in the midbrain ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG).

Evaluation of Stratospheric No2 Retrieved from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument: Intercomparison, Diurnal Cycle, and Trending
A 5+ year record of satellite measurements of nitrogen dioxide columns from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) is evaluated to establish the quality of the OMI retrievals and to test our understanding of stratospheric NO2.

A Platform for the Detection of Trypanosomes Via Selective Small Molecule Recognition
Trypanothione (TSH2), a metabolite unique to trypanosomal parasites, was evaluated as a potential biomarker for trypanosomal infection using fluorescence as the means of detection.

Constrained de novo sequencing of peptides with applications to conotoxins
I’ll talk about a bioinformatics approach suitable for the problem: constrained de novo sequencing, which generates and scores candidate sequences matching user-defined constraints.
