Functional Characterization of Mustn1 during Skeletal Myogenesis

Liu, Cheng (2007-08-01)

Functional Comparison of Connexin26 Wild-type and Non-syndromic Recessive Deafness Associated Mutant Channels

Mese, Gulistan (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 2007-12-01)

Functional Dissection of the Proteins of the Endoplasmic Reticulum Associated Degradation (ERAD) Pathway

Joshi, Shivanjali (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 2007-12-01)

Functional Diversity of Understory Shrubs along an Elevation Gradient in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil

Caminha Paiva, Dario (2015-04-10)

Along altitudinal gradients, factors such as less partial atmospheric CO2 pressure, and higher solar radiation promote water loss from plants. This tradeoff necessitates that plants possess morphological traits that promote ...

Functional Genomic Identification of Multiple Targets for Inhibiting Tumor-Promoting Fibroblasts

Rajaram, Megha (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-May-12)

There is increasing evidence that cancers develop as aberrant tissues with co-evolving tumor and surrounding non-malignant cells rather than from a single aberrant cell that has undergone multiple genetic alterations. As ...

Functional Morphology and Evolution of the Primate Auditory System

Coleman, Mark Newman (2007-05-01)

The functional morphology of subchondral and trabecular bone in the hominoid tibiotalar joint

Su, Anne (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-11)

This dissertation investigated whether the internal bone morphology of the distal tibia and talus may help to further clarify the controversial mosaics of external morphological traits previously found in fossil hominin ...

Functional Topography for Stimulus-Driven Control of Response Inhibition in Human Inferior Frontal Gyrus

Cai, Weidong (2009-08-01)

The Functions and Consequences of Intergroup Aggression among Argentine Tufted Capuchin Monkeys (<italic>Cebus apella</italic> [<italic>Sapajus</italic>] <italic>nigritus</italic>)

Scarry, Clara JoAnn (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-12)

Intergroup encounters provide dramatic examples of cooperative behavior, in which unrelated individuals may coordinate aggression when mutual benefits arise from defending access to resources. While between-group competition ...

The Functions of Atypical PKC and the PAR Complex in Axon Growth Inhibition

LEE, SEONG IL (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-May-12)

The failure of axon regeneration at injury sites in the central nervous system is due, at least in part, to the formation of a growth-inhibitory environment. The glial scar formed at injury sites contains numerous ...

Functions of Interferon Stimulated Gene, ISG54

Stawowczyk, Marcin (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-12)

The ability of interferons to protect cells from viral infection depends on the activation of multiple interferon-stimulated genes that together induce an anti-viral state. One of the genes is Interferon Stimulated Gene ...

The Functions of Nonsuicidal Self-Injury in an Adolescent Clinical Sample: Frequency, Structure, and Psychological Correlates

Glenn, Catherine Rose (The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-May-11)

Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI; e.g., cutting and burning) is most prevalent among adolescents, especially in clinical populations. Understanding the functions of NSSI can help clarify the behavior's etiology and treatment. ...
