Developing Cell Biology
(eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd, 2013)Experiments in Xenopus embryo extracts reveal that changes in cellular biochemistry cause mitotic spindles to decrease in size over the course of early development. -
Development and Underdevelopment in the Middle East and North Africa
(Oxford University Press, 2017-01-10)This article examines the trajectories of economic development and underdevelopment in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). It first considers the empirical record of development in the region, paying particular attention ... -
Development and Validation of a Novel Leishmania donovani Screening Cascade for High-Throughput Screening Using a Novel Axenic Assay with High Predictivity of Leishmanicidal Intracellular Activity
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2015)Visceral leishmaniasis is an important parasitic disease of the developing world with a limited arsenal of drugs available for treatment. The existing drugs have significant deficiencies so there is an urgent need for new ... -
Development and validation of a Spanish translation of the Yale activity questionnaire
(BioMed Central, 2014)Background: Valid measures of physical activity are critical research tools. The objective of this study was to develop a Spanish translation of the Yale Physical Activity Survey, and to provide preliminary evidence of its ... -
Development and Validation of a T7 Based Linear Amplification for Genomic DNA
(BioMed Central, 2003)Background: Genomic maps of transcription factor binding sites and histone modification patterns provide unique insight into the nature of gene regulatory networks and chromatin structure. These systematic studies use ... -
Development of a Broad-Host-Range SacB-Based Vector for Unmarked Allelic Exchange
(BioMed Central, 2008)Background: Although genome sequences are available for an ever-increasing number of bacterial species, the availability of facile genetic tools for physiological analysis have generally lagged substantially behind traditional ... -
Development of a grid-independent GEOS-chem chemical transport model as an atmospheric chemistry module for Earth System Models
(Copernicus GmbH, 2014)The GEOS-Chem global chemical transport model (CTM), used by a large atmospheric chemistry research community, has been re-engineered to also serve as an atmospheric chemistry module for Earth System Models (ESMs). This ... -
Development of a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Barcode to Genotype Plasmodium vivax Infections
(Public Library of Science, 2015)Plasmodium vivax, one of the five species of Plasmodium parasites that cause human malaria, is responsible for 25–40% of malaria cases worldwide. Malaria global elimination efforts will benefit from accurate and effective ... -
The Development of Altruistic Behavior: Helping in Children and Chimpanzees

Development of an Insertional Expression Vector System for Methylobacterium Extorquens AM1 and Generation of Null Mutants Lacking mtdA and/or fch
(Society for General Microbiology, 2004)Over the past few years, the genetic 'toolkit' available for use with <i>Methylobacterium extorquens</i> AM1 has expanded significantly. Here a further advance is presented and demonstrated, an insertional expression system ... -
Development of an Optimized Medium, Strain and High-Throughput Culturing Methods for Methylobacterium extorquens
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Methylobacterium extorquens strains are the best-studied methylotrophic model system, and their metabolism of single carbon compounds has been studied for over 50 years. Here we develop a new system for high-throughput ... -
The development of bioresorbable composite polymeric implants with high mechanical strength
(Springer Nature, 2017) -
Development of face recognition: A maturational component?
(American Psychological Association (APA), 1980)Assessed the development in approximately 160 6–16 yr old Ss of the ability to encode unfamiliar faces. Performance improved markedly between ages 6 and 10 and then remained at a fixed level or actually declined for several ... -
Development of high frequency and wide bandwidth Johnson noise thermometry
(AIP Publishing, 2015)We develop a high frequency, wide bandwidth radiometer operating at room temperature, which augments the traditional technique of Johnson noise thermometry for nanoscale thermal transport studies. Employing low noise ... -
The Development of Implicit Attitudes: Evidence of Race Evaluations From Ages 6 and 10 and Adulthood
(SAGE Publications, 2006)To understand the origin and development of implicit attitudes, we measured race attitudes in White American 6-year-olds, 10-year-olds, and adults by first developing a child-oriented version of the Implicit Association ... -
The Development of Implicit Intergroup Cognition
(Elsevier, 2008)Challenging the view that implicit social cognition emerges from protracted social learning, research now suggests that intergroup preferences are present at adultlike levels in early childhood. Specifically, the pattern ... -
Development of in situ sulfur four-isotope analysis with multiple Faraday cup detectors by SIMS and application to pyrite grains in a Paleoproterozoic glaciogenic sandstone
(Elsevier BV, 2014)An in situ sulfur four-isotope analysis technique with multiple Faraday cup detectors by ion microprobe was developed and applied to detrital pyrite grains in ~2.4 Ga glaciogenic sandstone from the Meteorite Bore Member ... -
The development of language and abstract concepts: The case of natural number.
(American Psychological Association (APA), 2008)What are the origins of abstract concepts such as "seven," and what role does language play in their development? These experiments probed the natural number words and concepts of 3-year-old children who can recite number ... -
The Development of Political Activists: A Model of Early Learning
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1986)An analysis of panel data reveals the unique importance of early learning to the development of political activism among Americans. A combination of two learning models-- the frequently used crystallization model and the ... -
Development of potent in vivo mutagenesis plasmids with broad mutational spectra
(Nature Pub. Group, 2015)Methods to enhance random mutagenesis in cells offer advantages over in vitro mutagenesis, but current in vivo methods suffer from a lack of control, genomic instability, low efficiency and narrow mutational spectra. Using ...
