Programmable Resistive-Switch Nanowire Transistor Logic Circuits
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2014-08-20)Programmable logic arrays (PLA) constitute a promising architecture for developing increasingly complex and functional circuits through nanocomputers from nanoscale building blocks. Here we report a novel one-dimensional ... -
Programming colloidal phase transitions with DNA strand displacement
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2015)DNA-grafted nanoparticles have been called “programmable atom-equivalents”: Like atoms, they form three-dimensional crystals, but unlike atoms, the particles themselves carry information (the sequences of the grafted ... -
Programming human pluripotent stem cells into white and brown adipocytes
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012)The utility of human pluripotent stem cells is dependent on efficient differentiation protocols that convert these cells into relevant adult cell types. Here we report the robust and efficient differentiation of human ... -
Programming Shape Using Kirigami Tessellations
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-08-19)Kirigami tessellations are regular planar patterns formed by cutting flat, thin sheets that morph into structures with rich geometries and unusual material properties. However, geometric constraints make the development ... -
Progress and the Lack of Progress in Addressing Infant Health and Infant Health Inequalities in Ireland during the 20th Century
(2016)There is a growing literature which documents the importance of early life environment for outcomes across the life cycle. Research, including studies based on Irish data, demonstrates that those who experience better ... -
Progress in exciton spectroscopy: personal perspective
(Elsevier BV, 2000)In this Lecture, I display my personal perspective on the progress in physics of excitons during the last 50years. Preference is given to the areas of this extensive field which I participated. They include molecular ... -
Progress toward the clinical application of patient-specific pluripotent stem cells
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2010)Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are generated by epigenetic reprogramming of somatic cells through the exogenous expression of transcription factors. These cells, just like embryonic stem cells, are likely to have a ... -
A progress-sensitive flow-sensitive inlined information-flow control monitor (extended version)
(Elsevier BV, 2017)We present a novel progress-sensitive, flow-sensitive hybrid information-flow control monitor for an imperative interactive language. Progress-sensitive information-flow control is a strong information security guarantee ... -
Progressive Corporations at Work: The Case of Diversity Programs
(New York University School of Law, 2012)During the civil rights era in the 1960s, the federal government passed a series of measures to end racial and gender discrimination in the workplace. Yet the laws and regulations did not clearly define what constituted ... -
Progressively-Refined Reflectance Functions from Natural Illumination
(Europgraphics Association, 2004)In this paper we present a simple, robust, and efficient algorithm for estimating reflectance fields (i.e., a description of the transport of light through a scene) for a fixed viewpoint using images of the scene under ... -
Prohibiting Inverse Scope: An Experimental Study of Chinese vs. English
(Colloque de Syntaxe et Sémantique à Paris, 2014)Quantifier scope is an interface phenomenon that raises important questions concerning the processing of not only monolingual but also bilingual speakers. In this paper, we build upon the findings by Scontras et al. (to ... -
The Project Physics Course, Then and Now

Projected Carbon Dioxide to Increase Grass Pollen and Allergen Exposure Despite Higher Ozone Levels
(Public Library of Science, 2014)One expected effect of climate change on human health is increasing allergic and asthmatic symptoms through changes in pollen biology. Allergic diseases have a large impact on human health globally, with 10–30% of the ... -
Projected Changes in Seasonal and Extreme Summertime Temperature and Precipitation in India in Response to COVID-19 Recovery Emissions Scenarios
(IOP Publishing, 2021-10-29)Fossil fuel and aerosol emissions have played important roles on climate over the Indian subcontinent over the last century. As the world transitions toward decarbonization in the next few decades, emissions pathways could ... -
Projecting Global Mangrove Species and Community Distributions under Climate Change
(Ecological Society of America, 2013)Given the multitude of ecosystem services provided by mangroves, it is important to understand their potential responses to global climate change. Extensive reviews of the literature and manipulative experiments suggest ... -
Projecting the future of the U.S. carbon sink
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002)Atmospheric and ground-based methods agree on the presence of a carbon sink in the coterminous United States (the United States minus Alaska and Hawaii), and the primary causes for the sink recently have been identified. ... -
Projection Learning
(1997)A method of combining learning algorithms is described that preserves attribute efficiency. It yields learning algorithms that require a number of examples that is polynomial in the number of relevant variables and logarithmic ... -
Prokaryotic phylogenies inferred from protein structural domains
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2005)The determination of the phylogenetic relationships among microorganisms has long relied primarily on gene sequence information. Given that prokaryotic organisms often lack morphological characteristics amenable to ... -
Prolegomena to Heritage Linguistics
(2010)Linguistic theory and experimental studies of language development rest heavily on the notion of the adult, perhaps linguistically stable, native speaker. Native speaker competence and performance are typically the result ...
