Balancing transcriptional activity in Drosophila through protein-protein interactions on chromatin
(2016-05-09)Chromatin plays a vital role in the implementation of gene expression programs. Several disparate groups of regulatory proteins alter chromatin state through post-translational modification of histone proteins, nucleosome ... -
Baleen whales host a unique gut microbiome with similarities to both carnivores and herbivores
(Nature Pub. Group, 2015)Mammals host gut microbiomes of immense physiological consequence, but the determinants of diversity in these communities remain poorly understood. Diet appears to be the dominant factor, but host phylogeny also seems to ... -

Band alignment of SnS/Zn(O,S) heterojunctions in SnS thin film solar cells
(American Institute of Physics, 2013)Band alignment is critical to the performance of heterojunction thin film solar cells. In this letter, we report band alignment studies of SnS/Zn(O,S) heterojunctions with various compositions of Zn(O,S). Valence band ... -

Bandgap and Band Offsets Determination of Semiconductor Heterostructures Using Three-Terminal Ballistic Carrier Spectroscopy
(AIP Publishing, 2009-09-14)Utilizing ambipolar tunnel emission of ballistic electrons and holes, we have developed a model-independent method to self-consistently measure bandgaps of semiconductors and band offsets at semiconductor heterojunctions. ... -
A Bangiophyte Red Alga from the Proterozoic of Arctic Canada
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1990)Silicified peritidal carbonate rocks of the 1250- to 750-million-year-old Hunting Formation, Somerset Island, arctic Canada, contain fossils of well-preserved bangiophyte red algae. Morphological details, especially the ... -

Banlieue Stories: Mapping the Paris Suburbs On Screen, 1958-2012
(2014-02-25)The substantive la banlieue does not simply describe a geographical territory, but rather names a particular articulation of images and narratives that constitute the ‘banlieue question’. This dissertation ... -
Bar-On on Self-Knowledge and Expression
(Springer Verlag, 2010)I critically discuss the account of self-knowledge presented in Dorit Bar-On’s Speaking My Mind (OUP 2004), focusing on Bar-On’s understanding of what makes our capacity for self-knowledge puzzling and on her ‘neo-expressivist’ ... -
Barbed Wire: Property Rights and Agricultural Development
(Oxford University Press, 2010)This paper examines the impact on agricultural development from the introduction of barbed wire fencing to the American Plains in the late 19th century. Without a fence, farmers risked uncompensated damage by others’ ... -
Bargaining in Markets
(2017-05-11)In the first chapter I describe a method to construct fair—or symmetry-preserving—stable sets of compound simple games from fair stable sets of their quotient and components, and I discuss how it contributes to the ... -
Barium distributions in teeth reveal early life dietary transitions in primates
(2013)Early life dietary transitions reflect fundamental aspects of primate evolution and are important determinants of health in contemporary human populations1,2. Weaning is critical to developmental and reproductive rates; ...
