18F Radiolabeling of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor anti-cancer drugs for therapeutic outcome studies
(2023)Epidermal growth factor receptor is a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity that plays a vital role in the proliferation, differentiation, and survival of normal cells. When mutations in this protein occur, ... -
2D geometric morphometrics of murine mandibular toothrows from Liang Bua (Flores, Indonesia): implications for taxonomic identification
(2022)This study uses—and evaluates the efficacy of—two-dimensional geometric morphometrics (2DGM) to quantitatively characterize the size and shape of murine rodent (i.e., rat) mandibular molar rows from the archaeological ... -
3D GPU-based image reconstruction algorithm for the application in a clinical organ-targeted PET camera
(2022)Functional medical imaging is unique in its ability to visualize molecular interactions and pathways in the body. Organ-targeted Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a functional imaging technique that has emerged to ... -
A case study of teachers' experiences with power
(2004)The present study was designed to provide information concerning teachers' experiences with power. Data obtained through surveys, interviews and observations were used to determine the sources of power that teachers ... -
A classification study of rough sets generalization
(2004)In the development of rough set theory, many different interpretations and formulations have been proposed and studied. One can classify the studies of rough sets into algebraic and constructive approaches. While algebraic ... -
A kinematic analysis of the V-style ski jump
(1994)The purpose of the study was to identify, describe, and quantify selected kinematic variables associated with the successful performance of the ski jump. Secondly, this study attempted to determine the statistical contribution ... -
A longitudinal mitochondrial DNA analysis of modern human hair samples from the Anyang region of China : implications for ancient DNA research
(2003)In 1998, Dr. E. Molto was selected to conduct pilot research on the Hei Heru, Shang Dynasty site in Anyang, China. A major component of this research is the ancient DNA analysis o f human remains recovered at Anyang. ... -
A new fingerprint design using optical orthogonal codes
(2014)Digital fingerprinting has been proposed to restrict illegal distribution of digital media, where every piece of media has a unique fingerprint as an identifying feature that can be traceable. However, fingerprint systems ... -
A+Vengers : empowering students through superheroic re-storying

(2012-11-10)Internationally, there is a trend for marginalized people to not be involved in natural resource management decision making that directly or indirectly affects them. This is the case for a majority of indigenous people ... -
Abstract convexity in metric spaces
(1985)Convexity in metric space is the main topic of discussion in this thesis. To undertake the study we have studied extensively the means introduced by Doss and included the results concerning means derived by Gahier ... -
Abstract convexity spaces
(1978)The principal question discussed in this dissertation is the problem of characterizing the linear and convex functions on generalized line spaces. A linear function is shown to be a convex function. The linear and ... -
Abstract model for measure and category
(1975)This thesis is an attempt to establish an abstract model for Lebesgue measure and Baire category. In the introduction, we list several similarities between Lebesgue measurable sets and sets having the property of ... -
Abundance, transportation, and preservation of Mysis diluviana eDNA in freshwater ecosystems
(2021)Environmental DNA (eDNA) has proven to be a valuable tool in detecting rare or invasive species, particularly within the Great Lakes and surrounding aquatic ecosystems. Recent work has shown that sedimentary eDNA (sedDNA) ... -
