Role of the ocean's AMOC in setting the uptake efficiency of transient tracers
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2017-05)The central role played by the ocean's Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the uptake and sequestration of transient tracers is studied in a series of experiments with the Goddard Institute for Space ... -
The Role of the Parietal Lobe in Visual Extinction Studied with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
(MIT Press with the Cognitive Neuroscience Institute, 2009-10)Interhemispheric competition between homologous areas in the human brain is believed to be involved in a wide variety of human behaviors from motor activity to visual perception and particularly attention. For example, ... -
The role of the PD-1 pathway in the tumor microenvironment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)The immune system has proven valuable in the fight against cancer. Therapies that unleash a T cell response against tumors have led to durable remissions in multiple cancers. Specifically, antibodies blocking the programmed ... -
The role of the phasin PhaP in promoting polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) granule formation in Caulobacter crescentus
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biodegradable polymer produced by many microorganisms when they find themselves limited in an essential nutrient such as nitrogen or phosphorus but in the presence of an abundant carbon source. ... -
