(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Pitch variations are used in different languages in a variety of communicative ways, from cueing lexical item identity to conveying meaning through phrasing and accentuation. Previously, linguistic theories of intonation ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Children with dyslexia struggle with learning to read despite adequate intelligence, motivation, and schooling. Over the years, there has been a growing consensus about the role of phonological processing in reading ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The goal of this work was to characterize the maturational trajectory of two core developmental language functions: phonological working memory (PWM) as indexed on nonword repetition (NWR) tasks, and finiteness-related ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Listeners with sensorineural hearing loss are often impaired in their ability to perceive the pitch associated with the fundamental frequency (FO) of complex harmonic sounds. Four studies investigated the relationship ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Afflicting almost 200 million worldwide, hepatitis C virus (HCV) mounts a chronic infection of liver hepatocytes that causes substantial morbidity and mortality. An understanding of host-virus interactions will drive the ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis focuses on the use of ultrathin therapeutic protein delivery films to control host tissue/medical device implant interactions, thereby reducing complications that lead to implant failure. The Layer by Layer ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Synaptic ribbons are electron-dense structures surrounded by vesicles and anchored to the presynaptic membrane of photoreceptors, retinal bipolar cells and hair cells. Ribbon synapses are characterized by sustained exocytosis ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Electronic prescription software is replacing traditional handwritten medication orders. This development however doesn't come without a cost and speed has been one of the most complained about issues. It is important to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Amyloids and prion proteins are clinically and biologically important beta-structures, whose supersecondary structures are difficult to determine by standard experimental or computational means. In addition, significant ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Complex traits are conditions that, as a result of the complex interplay among genetic and environmental factors, have wide variability in progression and manifestation. Because most common diseases with high morbidity and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Over the past ten years there has been increasing public concern regarding the rising costs of pharmaceuticals. Drug expenditure is the fastest growing sector of healthcare costs in the United States. The structure of the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Acoustic overexposure can cause death of cochlear nerve fibers, even if elevations in cochlear sensitivity are reversible and even if there is no hair cell loss. We hypothesized that this primary neural degeneration does ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)(cont.) Our methods analyze the coupling between instantaneous lung volume and heart rate and, subsequently, derive representative indices of parasympathetic and sympathetic control based on physiological and experimental ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Electronic transmission of protected health information has become pervasive in research, clinical, and public health investigations, posing substantial risk to patient privacy. From clinical genetic screenings to publication ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)A recent analysis by the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development estimates that the cost of developing a single new chemical entity (NCE) into a successful therapeutic agent is $802 million. This figure is largely ...
