Filamentous Biological Macromolecules Based Nanostructures and Their Applications
(2010)
In nanoscience, one promising strategy for achieving precise placements of nanomaterials and specific recognitions between individual build blocks is to use self-ordered templates to arrange them into designed pattern. ...
NATURAL PRODUCTS AS A SOURCE OF NEW THERAPIES FOR NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASE AND EFFORTS TOWARD THE DEVELOPMENT OF A METABOLOMICS-BASED DRUG DISCOVERY PLATFORM
(2010)
Natural products have traditionally played an important role in drug discovery research. They have been particularly important in the search for therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Although there are numerous forms ...
SCANNING TUNNELING MICROSCOPY STUDIES OF GROWTH MEDIUM & TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT STRUCTURAL PHASES OF ALKANETHIOL SELF-ASSEMBLED MONOLAYERS, REACTIVE SELF-ASSEMBLED MONOLAYERS, & FLAT GOLD NANOPARTICLE/INDIUM TIN OXIDE SUBSTRATES AND A SCANNING SURFAC
(2010)
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates on Au(111) represent promising platforms to study the molecular surfaces and interfaces for applications ranging from molecular electronics, nanophotonics to biology. ...
We are in this together: Group psychological contracts, breach, and outcomes
(2010)
For nearly two decades, researchers have often turned to the psychological contract as a framework for examining employer-employee relations. During this time, they have largely focused on examining the perceived obligations ...
CHARACTERIZATION OF CEMENTITIOUSLY STABILIZED SUBGRADES FOR MECHANISTIC-EMPIRICAL PAVEMENT DESIGN
(2010)
Pavements are vulnerable to subgrade layer performance because it acts as a foundation. Due to significant increase in truck traffic, pavement engineers are challenged to build more strong and long-lasting pavements. To ...
ADVANCED SIGNAL PROCESSING FOR MAGNETIC RECORDING ON PERPENDICULARLY MAGNETIZED MEDIA
(2010)
In magnetic recording channels (MRCs) the readback signal is corrupted by many kinds of impairments, such as electronic noise, media noise, intersymbol interference (ISI), inter-track interference (ITI) and different types ...
OBSERVATIONS OF PRACTICE CHARACTERISTICS OF UNDERGRADUATE CLARINET STUDENTS IN PRACTICE SESSIONS AND PRECEDING APPLIED LESSONS
(2010)
This study observed practice characteristics demonstrated in the practice sessions of sixteen undergraduate clarinetists, and examined the relationship between those characteristics and the activities each student experienced ...
Transitioning from junior high to middle school: A case study of teachers' and administrators' perceptions from one suburban school district
(2010)
The purpose of this study was to analyze through a set of interpretive and pragmatic theoretical lenses the perceptions of the middle school teachers, principals, and administrators of one school district's transition from ...
THE EFFECT OF INSTRUCTIONAL SUPERVISION ON PRINCIPAL TRUST
(2010)
Within-school climates and culture are predicated on organizational structures, distributions of power, and roles that are highly interactive. Hierarchical structures and uneven power distributions, primarily those of ...
