Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-Induced Protein 1 and 4 Form a Complex but Act Independently in Regulation of Interleukin-6 mRNA Degradation
Here we report that MCPIP1 interacts with MCPIP4 to form a protein complex but they act independently in regulation of IL-6 mRNA degradation.

Does Pain Vary across the Menstrual Cycle? A Review
Animal studies support both pronociceptive and antinociceptive actions of oestradiol and progesterone suggesting that the net effect of these hormones on pain is complex and likely depends on the interaction between hormones and the extent of fluctuation rather than absolute hormone levels.

Improving robustness against reverberation for automatic speech recognition
In this work, we explore the role of robust acoustic features motivated by human speech perception studies, for building ASR systems robust to reverberation effects.

Name-aware language model adaptation and sparse features for statistical machine translation
We propose approaches improving statistical machine translation (SMT) performance, by developing name-aware language model adaptations and sparse features, in addition to extracting nameaware translation grammar and rules, adding name phrase table, and name translation driven decoding.

Wearable Active Textiles for Personal Cooling and Heating: Saving Energy and Increasing Comfort
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) accounts for almost half of the energy used in a typical U.S. home and about 13 percent of all energy consumed in the nation. Implications of this energy consumption include negative effects on the environment and climate, wasted money from inefficient heating and cooling of buildings as well as…
