Managing inquiry-based science: Challenges in enacting complex science instruction in K-8 classrooms
In this article, we describe five interconnected management areas that need to be addressed when managing an inquiry-oriented K-8 science classroom. We introduce a pyramid model as a framework for thinking about these management areas and present a brief review of what the research literature says about each area.

The Use of Orthologous Sequences to Predict the Impact of Amino Acid Substitutions on Protein Function
We examined this assumption by evaluating a panel of nonsynonymous mutants of a prototypical human enzyme, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), in a yeast cell-based functional assay.
