NOT UPGRADED TOURISM: A CASE STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF A SHORT-TERM STUDY ABROAD EXPERIENCE IN ISRAEL
(2018-05-11)International education has been evolving in the past decade, with short-term study abroad programs gradually growing to be the dominant type of program. With this growth comes the need to develop a concentrated and impactful ... -
Novel annexin A5 - nanoparticles conjugates for targeted cancer therapy
(2022-12-09)Cancer is considered the single most critical barrier to improving life expectancy in every country. More specifically, the high prevalence of breast cancer is a global health concern, but there are no safe or effective ... -
Novel aspects of benzoate and crotonate metabolism by the strictly anaerobic bacterium Syntrophus aciditrophicus strain SB.
(2007)Although enzyme activities and metabolites detected in S. aciditrophicus indicated that benzoate was degraded by the pathway found in Rhodopseudomonas palustris, proteomic data detected the gene products homologous to ... -
Novel biomarker application reveals the microbial ecological dynamics surrounding Oceanic Anoxic Event II (OAE-2)
(2021-05-14)Biomarkers are established facets of paleoenvironmental study, yet significant untapped potential remains. Conventional methods (e.g. GC-MS) fail to characterize large, polar molecules, which often possess greater biological ... -
Novel catalytic materials for carbon dioxide reforming of methane under severely deactivating conditions.
(1999)Promotion of the ZrO2 support with cerium and lanthanum resulted in increased activity and stability of the catalyst. The improved performance of the promoted catalyst can be attributed stabilizing the surface area for ... -
Novel cobalt-mediated regio- and stereoselective radical cyclizations.
(1998)Initial efforts focused on the intermolecular additions of the radicals to electron deficient double bonds, but they were unsuccessful. Efforts then focused on intramolecular cyclizations of 1-[(alkynyl)Co2(CO) 6]-5-hexenyl ... -
Novel Computer-Aided Diagnosis Schemes for Radiological Image Analysis
(2022-05-13)The computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) scheme is a powerful tool in assisting clinicians (e.g., radiologists) to interpret medical images more accurately and efficiently. In developing high-performing CAD schemes, classic ... -
Novel phenomena in confined electronic systems.
(2007)Modern experimental methods have made it possible for physicists to investigate matter in extreme conditions. Two of the most extreme conditions are low temperature and low dimensionality. Fabricated semiconductor or metal ... -
Novel platinum/KL catalysts for the aromatization of N-hexane.
(2000)Finally, regeneration of Pt/KL catalysts was studied for sulfur poisoned catalysts. While air effectively burned off coke deposits, sintering of Pt resulted. An oxychlorination treatment effectively redispersed the Pt. -
A novel polysaccharide-based surface engineering strategy for nanomedicines
(2022-08-04)This dissertation presents the development and evaluation of a novel polysaccharide-based surface engineering strategy for nanomedicines. Chapter one summaries the current status of nanoparticle toxicology. Nanoparticles ... -
Novel Techniques for the Description and Interpretation of Microbial Communities in the Modern Human Gut and Ancient Human Oral Microbiome
(2018)Studies of human–associated microbial communities are increasingly integrated into biological anthropology, allowing us to explore the role of microorganisms in aspects of human evolution, health, and disease. Despite ... -
NOVEL USER-CENTRIC ARCHITECTURES FOR FUTURE GENERATION CELLULAR NETWORKS: DESIGN, ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION
(2019-08)Ambitious targets for aggregate throughput, energy efficiency (EE) and ubiquitous user experience are propelling the advent of ultra-dense networks. Inter-cell interference and high energy consumption in an ultra-dense ... -
Novel, low-cost aluminum (hydr)oxide based materials for fluoride-impacted drinking-water: Batch and column studies
(2016-05)Simple aluminum (hydr)oxides and layered double hydroxides were synthesized using common chemicals and equipment by varying synthesis temperature, concentrations of extra sulfate and citrate, and metal oxide amendments. ... -
The novels of Nathanael West /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1973) -
The novels of Salvador Garmendia :
(1980)This study is divided into four main parts in which the five novels of Venezuelan Salvador Garmendia are analyzed on the bases of theme, characterization, structure and style. The novels are Los pequenos seres (1959), Los ... -
The novelty response of pulse-type weakly electric fish :
(1985)A series of experiments was performed to investigate various behavioral and neurophysiological aspects of the Novelty Response (NR) of pulse-type weakly electric fish. The NR is a reflexive behavior in which the fish ... -
NOW WHAT? Impact of a Self-Advocacy Strategy on Middle School Students with Disabilities
(2020-05-08)Students with disabilities do not develop self-advocacy skills on their own; however, instruction in these skills is often lacking in special education programs. This lack of self-advocacy skills negatively impacts the ... -
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study of freezing and thawing of saturated porous media and application to shale and pore volume compressibility estimation.
(2007)Conventional logging tool response is complicated by the presence of shale making it difficult to interpret the log response. Water saturation in shales assumes the shales are filled with brines found in nearby sands. In ... -
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Study of Nucleic Acid Tertiary Structures
(2011)Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is ubiquitous to all organisms and a molecule that essential to all life forms. RNA is a versatile molecule with numerous cellular functions. With advances in nucleic acid sequencing, researchers ... -
