Correlates of red throat coloration in female stickleback and their potential evolutionary significance (2013)
Journal Article
Yong, L., Guo, R., Wright, D. S., Mears, S. A., Pierotti, M. E., & McKinnon, J. S. (2013). Correlates of red throat coloration in female stickleback and their potential evolutionary significance. Evolutionary Ecology Research, 15, 453-472

Background: In two stream-resident populations of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), females often exhibit male-typical red throat coloration. These fish inhabit the Little Campbell River (British Columbia) and Matadero Creek (Californi...

Front wave prediction in water hammer phenomena involving twophase flows (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Bogoi, A., Marie Seynhaeve, J., Rugescu, R. D., Sugar, O., & Giot, M. (2013). Front wave prediction in water hammer phenomena involving twophase flows. . https://doi.org/10.1115/IMECE2013-65838

A genuine mathematical model for one dimensional, unsteady, two phase (liquid-gas) flows is presented that intends to solve the complex problem of two phase behavior of fluids. The mechanism of the model describes the fluid flow characteristics of th... Read More about Front wave prediction in water hammer phenomena involving twophase flows.

Thermal assessment of heat mitigation strategies : the case of Portland State University, Oregon, USA (2013)
Journal Article
Taleghani, M., Sailor, D., Tenpierik, M., & van den Dobbelsteen, A. (2014). Thermal assessment of heat mitigation strategies : the case of Portland State University, Oregon, USA. Building and Environment, 73(Mar 14), 138-150. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2013.12.006

Courtyard vegetation, high albedo surfaces, and courtyard ponds were investigated as potential heat mitigation strategies using field measurements and simulations in a university campus environment. The investigation was performed during a summer per... Read More about Thermal assessment of heat mitigation strategies : the case of Portland State University, Oregon, USA.

Recent advances in studies of polymicrobial interactions in oral biofilms (2013)
Journal Article
James, C. (2013). Recent advances in studies of polymicrobial interactions in oral biofilms. Current Oral Health Reports, 1(1), 59-69. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40496-013-0006-3

The oral cavity supports a complex and finely balanced consortium of microbial species, many of which cooperate within structured biofilms. These communities develop through multitudinous synergistic and antagonistic interspecies relationships. Chang...

Simultaneous detection and quantification of three bacterial meningitis pathogens by SERS (2013)
Journal Article
Gracie, K., Correa, E., Mabbott, S., Dougan, J., Graham, D., Goodacre, R., & Faulds, K. (2013). Simultaneous detection and quantification of three bacterial meningitis pathogens by SERS. Chemical Science, 5(3), 1030-1040. https://doi.org/10.1039/C3SC52875H

Bacterial meningitis is well known for its rapid onset and high mortality rates, therefore rapid detection of bacteria found in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) and subsequent effective treatment is crucial. A new quantitative assay for detection of three... Read More about Simultaneous detection and quantification of three bacterial meningitis pathogens by SERS.

Somatic CALR Mutations in myeloproliferative neoplasms with nonmutated JAK2 (2013)
Journal Article
Nangalia, J., Massie, C., Baxter, E., Nice, F., Gundem, G., Wedge, D., …Aziz, A. E. A. (2013). Somatic CALR Mutations in myeloproliferative neoplasms with nonmutated JAK2. New England Journal of Medicine, 369(25), 2391-2405. https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa1312542

BACKGROUND: Somatic mutations in the Janus kinase 2 gene (JAK2) occur in many myeloproliferative neoplasms, but the molecular pathogenesis of myeloproliferative neoplasms with nonmutated JAK2 is obscure, and the diagnosis of these neoplasms remains...

Multiple paternity in the starry smooth-hound shark Mustelus asterias (Carcharhiniformes: Triakidae) (2013)
Journal Article
Farrell, E., O'Sullivan, N., Sacchi, C., & Mariani, S. (2014). Multiple paternity in the starry smooth-hound shark Mustelus asterias (Carcharhiniformes: Triakidae). Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 111(1), 119-125. https://doi.org/10.1111/bij.12179

Multiple paternity was investigated in the starry smooth-hound shark, Mustelus asterias Cloquet, 1821. Analysis of 12 pregnant females and their embryos, at four microsatellite loci, showed that at least 58% carried multiply-sired litters. Paternal s...
