      Troemel, Emily R; Chu, Stephanie W; Reinke, Valerie; Lee, Siu Sylvia; Ausubel, Frederick M.; Kim, Dennis H (Public Library of Science, 2006)
      The PMK-1 p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway and the DAF-2–DAF-16 insulin signaling pathway control Caenorhabditis elegans intestinal innate immunity. pmk-1 loss-of-function mutants have enhanced sensitivity to ...
    • The p53 response in single cells is linearly correlated to the number of DNA breaks without a distinct threshold 

      Loewer, Alexander; Karanam, Ketki; Mock, Caroline; Lahav, Galit (BioMed Central, 2013)
      Background: The tumor suppressor protein p53 is activated by cellular stress. DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) induce the activation of the kinase ATM, which stabilizes p53 and activates its transcriptional activity. Single ...
    • The Pace of Evolution Across Fitness Valleys 

      Gokhale, Chaitanya S.; Iwasa, Yoh; Nowak, Martin A.; Traulsen, Arne (Elsevier, 2009)
      How fast does a population evolve from one fitness peak to another? We study the dynamics of evolving, asexually reproducing populations in which a certain number of mutations jointly confer a fitness advantage. We consider ...

      D'Angelo, Tiziana (2013-09-26)
      This dissertation examines the cultural, political, and artistic role of polychrome wall painting from funerary contexts in South Italy during the critical period that spans the crisis of Greek hegemony and the consolidation ...
    • Painting in Between: Gender and Modernity in the Japanese Literati Art of Okuhara Seiko (1837-1913) 

      Wakamatsu, Yurika (2016-07-12)
      This dissertation investigates the aesthetic and conceptual transformations of literati art—a dominant mode of both being and representing in the East Asian cultural sphere that experienced unprecedented popularity in early ...
    • Painting with Drops, Jets, and Sheets 

      Herczynski, Andrzej; Cernuschi, Claude; Mahadevan, Lakshminarayanan (American Institute of Physics, 2011)
      A fluid dynamics analysis of Jackson Pollock’s technique opens his and other artists’ work to quantitative exploration.
    • Pair-instability supernovae at the epoch of reionization 

      Pan, Tony; Kasen, Daniel; Loeb, Abraham (Oxford University Press, 2012)
      Pristine stars with masses between similar to 140 and 260 M? are theoretically predicted to die as pair-instability supernovae. These very massive progenitors could come from Population III (Pop III) stars in the early ...
    • Pair-instability supernovae via collision runaway in young dense star clusters 

      Pan, Tony; Loeb, Abraham; Kasen, Daniel (Oxford University Press, 2012)
      Stars with helium cores between similar to 64 and 133 M? are theoretically predicted to die as pair-instability supernovae. This requires very massive progenitors, which are theoretically prohibited for Pop II/I stars ...
    • Paired Electron Pockets in the Hole-Doped Cuprates 

      Galitski, Victor; Sachdev, Subir (American Physical Society, 2009)
      We propose a theory for the underdoped hole-doped cuprates, focusing on the "nodal-anti-nodal dichotomy" observed in recent experiments. Our theory begins with an ordered antiferromagnetic Fermi liquid with electron and ...
    • Pairing insights in iron-based superconductors from scanning tunneling microscopy 

      Song, Can-Li; Hoffman, Jennifer Eve (Elsevier BV, 2013)
      Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has made tremendous progress in the study and understanding of both classical and unconventional superconductors. This has motivated a rapidly growing effort to apply the same techniques ...
    • Pairing instabilities in quasi-two-dimensional Fermi gases 

      Pietilä, Ville; Pekker, David; Nishida, Yusuke; Demler, Eugene (American Physical Society, 2012)
      We study nonequilibrium dynamics of ultracold two-component Fermi gases in low-dimensional geometries after the interactions are quenched from a weakly interacting to a strongly interacting regime. We develop a T-matrix ...
    • Pairing Interactions and Gibbs Adsorption at the Liquid Bi-In Surface: A Resonant X-Ray Reflectivity Study 

      DiMasi, E.; Tostmann, H.; Shpyrko, O. G.; Huber, P.; Ocko, B. M.; Pershan, Peter S.; Deutsch, M.; Berman, L. E. (American Physical Society, 2001)
      Resonant x-ray reflectivity measurements from the surface of liquid Bi22In78 find only a modest surface Bi enhancement, with 35 at.% Bi in the first atomic layer. This is in contrast to the Gibbs adsorption in all liquid ...
    • Pairing of Competitive and Topologically Distinct Regulatory Modules Enhances Patterned Gene Expression 

      Yanai, Itai; Baugh, L Ryan; Smith, Jessica J.; Roehrig, Casey; Shen-Orr, Shai S; Claggett, Julia M; Hill, Andrew A.; Slonim, Donna K; Hunter, Craig P. (Nature Publishing Group, 2008)
      Biological networks are inherently modular, yet little is known about how modules are assembled to enable coordinated and complex functions. We used RNAi and time series, whole-genome microarray analyses to systematically ...
    • Pairing Purpose with Profit 

      Aguirre, Emilie (2021-07-12)
      In recent years, companies that pursue both social and commercial goals have been on the rise. These companies have significant potential for social and economic impact and are emerging amidst increased pressure and ...

      Kimura, Yuri; Flynn, Lawrence John; Jacobs, Louis L. (Informa UK Limited, 2015-10)
      A general lineage concept is widely adopted in studies of species delimitation for extant taxa with DNA sequence data. In the general lineage concept, species are separately evolving metapopulations that acquire sets of ...
