Doppler optical coherence microscopy for studies of cochlear mechanics
(SPIE, 2006-10)The possibility of measuring subnanometer motions with micron scale spatial resolution in the intact mammalian cochlea using Doppler optical coherence microscopy (DOCM) is demonstrated. A novel DOCM system is described ... -
DOPPLER SIGNATURES OF THE ATMOSPHERIC CIRCULATION ON HOT JUPITERS
(IOP Publishing, 2012-12)The meteorology of hot Jupiters has been characterized primarily with thermal measurements, but recent observations suggest the possibility of directly detecting the winds by observing the Doppler shift of spectral lines ... -
Doppler Spread Estimation in MIMO Frequency-Selective Fading Channels
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-12)One of the main challenges in high-speed mobile communications is the presence of large Doppler spreads. Thus, accurate estimation of maximum Doppler spread (MDS) plays an important role in improving the performance of the ... -
Dorcas Cummings lecture
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2017)Dr. David Page presented the Dorcas Cummings lecture entitled “Sex and Disease: Do Males and Females Read Their Genomes Differently” to friends and neighbors of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Symposium participants on ... -
The Dormancy Dilemma: Quiescence versus Balanced Proliferation
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2013-06)Metastatic dissemination with subsequent clinical outgrowth leads to the greatest part of morbidity and mortality from most solid tumors. Even more daunting is that many of these metastatic deposits silently lie undetected, ... -
Dormio: A targeted dream incubation device
(Elsevier BV, 2020)© 2020 Elsevier Inc. Information processing during sleep is active, ongoing and accessible to engineering. Protocols such as targeted memory reactivation use sensory stimuli during sleep to reactivate memories and demonstrate ... -
Dorsal Raphe Dopamine Neurons Represent the Experience of Social Isolation
(Cell Press/Elsevier, 2016-02)The motivation to seek social contact may arise from either positive or negative emotional states, as social interaction can be rewarding and social isolation can be aversive. While ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine ... -
Dorsal Raphe Serotonergic Neurons Control Intertemporal Choice under Trade-off
(Elsevier, 2017-10)Appropriate choice about delayed reward is fundamental to the survival of animals. Although animals tend to prefer immediate reward, delaying gratification is often advantageous. The dorsal raphe (DR) serotonergic neurons ... -
Dosage delivery of sensitive reagents enables glove-box-free synthesis
(Springer Nature, 2015-08)Contemporary organic chemists employ a broad range of catalytic and stoichiometric methods to construct molecules for applications in the material sciences, and as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and sensors. The utility ... -
Dosage-sensitive functions in embryonic development drove the survival of genes on sex-specific chromosomes in snakes, birds, and mammals
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2021)© 2021 Bellott and Page. Different ancestral autosomes independently evolved into sex chromosomes in snakes, birds, and mammals. In snakes and birds, females are ZW and males are ZZ; in mammals, females are XX and males ... -

Dose rate effects in the radiation damage of the plastic scintillators of the CMS hadron endcap calorimeter
(IOP Publishing, 2016-10)We present measurements of the reduction of light output by plastic scintillators irradiated in the CMS detector during the 8 TeV run of the Large Hadron Collider and show that they indicate a strong dose rate effect. The ... -
Dose-dependence and small-scale variability in responses to ocean acidification during squid, Doryteuthis pealeii, development
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019-04-19)Abstract Coastal squids lay their eggs on the benthos, leaving them to develop in a dynamic system that is undergoing rapid acidification due to human influence. Prior studies have broadly investigated the ... -
Dose-dependence and small-scale variability in responses to ocean acidification during squid, Doryteuthis pealeii, development
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-04)Abstract Coastal squids lay their eggs on the benthos, leaving them to develop in a dynamic system that is undergoing rapid acidification due to human influence. Prior studies have broadly investigated the ... -
Dose-Dependent Regulation of Alternative Splicing by MBNL Proteins Reveals Biomarkers for Myotonic Dystrophy
(Public Library of Science, 2016-09)Alternative splicing is a regulated process that results in expression of specific mRNA and protein isoforms. Alternative splicing factors determine the relative abundance of each isoform. Here we focus on MBNL1, a splicing ... -
Dose-dependent regulation of microbial activity on sinking particles by polyunsaturated aldehydes: Implications for the carbon cycle
(National Academy of Sciences (U.S.), 2015-05)Diatoms and other phytoplankton play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle, fixing CO[subscript 2] into organic carbon, which may then be exported to depth via sinking particles. The molecular diversity of this organic ... -
