Coupling primary and stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes in an in vitro model of cardiac cell therapy
(The Rockefeller University Press, 2016)The efficacy of cardiac cell therapy depends on the integration of existing and newly formed cardiomyocytes. Here, we developed a minimal in vitro model of this interface by engineering two cell microtissues (μtissues) ... -
Coupling the small GTPase Rab3 to the Synaptic Vesicle Cycle
(2013-10-08)Coupling the small GTPase Rab3 to the Synaptic Vesicle Cycle -
Courting Trouble: a Qualitative Examination of Sexual Inequality in Partnering Practice
(2017-05-11)Sociology recognizes marriage and family formation as two consequential events in an adult’s lifecourse. But as young people spend more of their lives childless and unpartnered, scholars recognize a dearth of academic ... -
Courts: the Lex Mundi Project
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2003)In cooperation with Lex Mundi member law firms in 109 countries, we measure and describe the exact procedures used by litigants and courts to evict a tenant for nonpayment of rent and to collect a bounced check. We use ... -
Covalent Binding of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes to Polyamide Membranes for Antimicrobial Surface Properties
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2011)We propose an innovative approach to impart nanomaterial-specific properties to the surface of thin-film composite membranes. Specifically, biocidal properties were obtained by covalently binding single-walled carbon ... -
Covalent Inhibition of Pro-Apoptotic BAX
(2023-06-01)BCL-2-associated X protein (BAX) is a promising therapeutic target for activating or restraining apoptosis in diseases of pathologic cell survival or cell death, respectively. In response to cellular stress, BAX transforms ... -
Covalently Functionalized Nanotubes as Nanometer-Sized Probes in Chemistry and Biology
(Nature Publishing Group, 1998)Carbon nanotubes combine a range of properties that make them well suited for use as probe tips in applications such as atomic force microscopy (AFM)1, 2, 3. Their high aspect ratio, for example, opens up the possibility ... -
Covariance of Microfossil Assemblages and Microbialite Textures Across an Upper Mesoproterozoic Carbonate Platform
(Society for Sedimentary Geology, 2013)Early diagenetic chert nodules and beds in the upper Mesoproterozoic Angmaat (formerly Society Cliffs) Formation, Baffin and Bylot islands, preserve microfossils and primary petrofabrics that record microbial mat deposition ... -
Covariate-Dependent Nonparametric Mixture Models
(2016-06-22)This work investigates the problem of learning nonparametric mixture models in the presence of external covariates of interest. This modeling problem is relevant whenever one wishes to explore the underlying structure of ... -
Coverage recommendations for methylation analysis by whole genome bisulfite sequencing
(2014)Whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) allows genome-wide DNA methylation profiling but the associated high sequencing costs continue to limit its widespread application. We utilized several high coverage reference data ... -
Covers of an Elliptic Curve E and Curves in ExP1
(2015-04-30)We describe the hyperplane sections of the Severi variety of curves in ExP1 in a similar fashion to Caporaso—Harris’ seminal work. From this description we almost get a recursive formula for the Severi degrees—we get the ... -
COVID-19 Versus Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) and ATP
We previously published an article in Science discussing the role of ATP in cystic fibrosis (CF). (1) In this manuscript, we update the findings published in that article and add new evidence that the elevated levels of ... -

Cracking the Case of Antarctic Ice Shelf Rifting
(2023-08-29)The stability of the ice shelves that float at the fringes of Antarctica may be the key to determining the future of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) and its contribution to sea level rise. Fracture exerts a fundamental control ... -
CRADLE: An Online Plan Recognition Algorithm for Exploratory Domains
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2017-04-22)In exploratory domains, agents’ behaviors include switching between activities, extraneous actions, and mistakes. Such settings are prevalent in real world applications such as interaction with open-ended software, ... -
Crafting Community Identity. The Cajamarca of Iscoconga during the Early Intermediate Period (50 BC - AD 550)
(2023-03-14)This thesis investigates the process by which Andean social groups develop a consciousness of difference, whether based on ethnicity, socio-political structures of chiefdoms, or a diverse and open economy that promotes ... -
Crafting Monasticism: an archaeohistory of monastic labor and identity in western Europe ca. 400-800
(2023-11-21)Across Western Europe in the period from 400 to 800 AD, new religious settlements spread across the crumbling Roman landscape of cities, villas, and farms. By the end of this period, these new Christian monasteries and ... -
The Cranial Endoskeleton of Tiktaalik Roseae
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008)Among the morphological changes that occurred during the ‘fish-to-tetrapod’ transition was a marked reorganization of the cranial endoskeleton. Details of this transition, including the sequence of character acquisition, ... -
The Cranial Morphology of Kayentachelys, an Early Jurassic Cryptodire, and the Early History of Turtles
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010)The skull morphology of Kayentachelys aprix Gaffney et al., 1987, a turtle from the Early Jurassic Kayenta Fm of northern Arizona, demonstrates the presence of cryptodiran synapomorphies in agreement with Gaffney et al. ... -
Crater functions for compound materials: A route to parameter estimation in coupled-PDE models of ion bombardment
(Elsevier BV, 2014)During the ion bombardment of targets containing multiple component species, highly-ordered arrays of nanostructures are sometimes observed. Models incorporating coupled partial differential equations, describing both ...
