Static Disassembly Of Stripped Binaries
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)Disassembly of binaries plays an important role in computer security.Tools for binary analysis and reverse engineering rely heavily on staticdisassembly. Current disassemblers are not able to reliably disassembleexecutables ... -
Identification and Characterization of an Insulin Based Inhibitor of Amylin and Aβ40 Amyloid Formation
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)The formation of amyloid fibrils plays a role in a wide range of diseases collectively known as amyloidosis. Amyloid fibrils are formed when peptides or proteins misfold and deposit in tissues and organs. These deposits ... -
A Home Divided: A Post-National Approach to Family, Gender and Region in Modern Galician Narrative
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)By focusing on the case of Galicia, A Home Divided represents an attempt to understand the multiple linguistic and gendered subjectivities that are enclosed within and excluded from larger regional/national Iberian identities. ... -
Development of a quantitative assay for mitochondrial fusion and characterization of a lipid signaling pathway on the mitochondrial surface
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)Mitochondria continuously undergo fusion and fission, the relative rates of which define their morphology. Mitochondrial fusion is currently assayed by fusing together cells expressing GFP or RFP in their mitochondria and ... -
Understanding Nanoscale Magnetization Reversal and Spin Dynamics by Using Advanced Transmission Electron Microscopy
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)In the forefront of spintronics research, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is not only an essential tool for examining matter with high spatial resolution, but also associated with it is a rich variety of in-situ ... -
Water and Ion Transport in Lacrimal Gland: Models and Experiment
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)Tear secretion is a complicated process that involves two different cell types. The lacrimal acinar cell is thought to secrete a hypertonic primary fluid with a high K<super>+</super> concentration. This fluid is then ... -
The Tropical Atlantic Response to Abrupt Climate Change during Interstadial 12
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)The critical gaps in our understanding of the Earth's climate system lie in the patterns and forcing mechanisms of climate variability on decadal to submillennial time scales. Equally important and also not clearly ... -
Hard X-ray Phase Contrast Microscopy. Techniques and Applications.
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)In 1918, Einstein provided the first description of the nature of the refractive index for X-rays, showing that phase contrast effects are significant. A century later, most x-ray microscopy and nearly all medical imaging ... -
The Impact of Environmental Factors on the Physiology of the Atlantic surfclam, Spisula solidissima
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)The Atlantic surfclam supports a multi-million dollar fishery in New York. Between 2002 and 2008, surfclam abundance in New York State waters along the south shore of Long Island has decreased by 63% in biomass and 75% in ... -
The Role of C1q in Regulation of Monocyte to Dendritic Cell Differentiation: Implications in Autoimmunity
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)Growing evidence shows that the first component of complement, C1q, regulates the growth and function of cells committed to the monocyte-derived dendritic cell (DC) lineage. Because C1q regulates both innate and acquired ... -
Association of Blood DPP5 Level with Cancer Type, Stage, and Survival
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)Introduction: Membrane-bound dipeptidyl peptidase 5 (DPP5) has been linked to tumor invasion and metastasis processes. Its recent isolation as a soluble protein from plasma may indicate a potential role as a biomarker and ... -

(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)Through the lens of theatricality, this thesis examines the development of the production I've Got Everything by Gruppe 38, a professional Danish theatre company performing for children and adults. The company is introduced ... -
Design and biological evaluation of new NSAIDs based anticancer agents and their controlled release from an addressable hydrogel based delivery system
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)In recent years scientific and technological advancements have been made in the research and development of controlled drug delivery systems and new chemopreventive agents. For many potential drug candidates a modified ... -
Improving Network Performance through Measurement Based Analysis
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)The unprecedented increase in the scale of established networks such as the Internet and Cellular Networks and evolution of new kinds of networks such as Wireless Mesh Networks, Sensor Networks, etc., has led to several ... -
Genetic analyses of the terminal protein (VPg) and of spacer II in the 5'-nontranslated region of poliovirus RNA
(The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY., 1-Aug-10)VPg is a small protein (20-30 amino acids long), which is present in every virus of the Picornaviridae family. A hydroxyl group of tyrosine at position 3 of VPg is covalently linked to the 5'-terminal UMP of genomic ... -
The Production of Pride: Institutionalization and LGBT Pride Organizations
