Cytotoxicity of Human Endogenous Retrovirus K-Specific T Cells toward Autologous Ovarian Cancer Cells
Endogenous retroviral gene products in ovarian cancer may represent a potentially valuable new pool of tumor-associated antigens for targeting of therapeutic vaccines to ovarian cancer.

Evidence for Generation of Unstable Suprathermal Electron Population in the Auroral F Region
In this work we used a one-dimensional Zakharov simulation to constrain the range of physical mechanisms underlying these observational features.

The Effects of Using Dynabook to Prepare Special Education Teachers to Teach Proportional Reasoning
The purpose of this mixed methods study was to understand how special education college faculty used the proportional Dynabook and how it affected the learning of teacher candidates in their courses.

Making Computer Science a First-Class Object in the K-12 Next Generation Science Standards
In the course of our work on building assessments for the Exploring Computer Science course (including drawing from the AP CS Principles framework) we have identified a manageable set of core ideas and mapped them to the NGSS engineering design standards.

The alpha7 Nicotinic Receptor Agonist ABT-107 Protects against Nigrostriatal Damage in Rats with Unilateral 6-Hydroxydopamine Lesions
The objective of this study was twofold: first, to test the protective potential of ABT-107, an agonist with high selectivity for α7 nAChRs; and second, to investigate its cellular mechanism of action.

High-Latitude Ionospheric Drivers and Their Effects on Wind Patterns in the Thermosphere
In this study, we investigate the ability of the Global Ionosphere-Thermosphere Model (GITM) to simulate the mesoscale wind structure over Alaska during a substorm.

Effects of Tidal Forcing, Conductivity Gradient, and Active Seeding on the Climatology of Equatorial Spread F over Kwajalein
ESF climatology over the Kwajalein Atoll was compared with properties of the postsunset rise (PSSR) of the F layer and seeding activity in the troposphere.

Soft Agents: Exploring Soft Constraints to Model Robust Adaptive Distributed Cyber-Physical Agent Systems
We are interested in principles for designing and building open distributed systems consisting of multiple cyber-physical agents, specifically, where a coherent global view is unattainable and timely consensus is impossible.

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping by Inversion of a Perturbation Field Model: Correlation with Brain Iron in Normal Aging
We present a method for quantifying susceptibility by inversion of a perturbation model, or “QSIP.” The perturbation model relates phase to susceptibility using a kernel calculated in the spatial domain, in contrast to previous Fourier-based techniques.
