Predicting Radiating Shock Experiments December 2, 2010 2:30 p.m. Ryan McClarren Abstract His recent work has looked at ways of solving kinetic equations based on splitting the particles into ones that have collided during a time step and those that have collided and those that have not. This splitting is motivated by the fact that […]
Disease-induced juvenile mortality and transient and asymptotic population dynamics of Chinook salmon November 18, 2010 2:30 p.m. Masami Fujiwara Abstract The effects of increased juvenile mortality on transient and asymptotic dynamics of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were investigated. Disease-induced mortality of juvenile salmon has become a serious concern in recent years. Studies in the Klamath […]

Integrated Second Generation Sequencing and Microarray Based Analyses to Identify Genetic Variants March 2, 2011 2:30 p.m. Scott Dindot Abstract Second-generation (2G) sequencing platforms, such as massively parallel sequencing by synthesis (Solexa) and pyrosequencing (Roche 454), provide unprecedented access to the DNA sequences of individual genomes. In a single run, Solexa sequencing generates hundreds of […]
Alignment of LC-MS Proteomics Datasets Using Internal Anchors October 21, 2010 2:30 p.m. Alan Dabney Abstract Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry is a modern tool for extracting quantitative proteomic information from complex biological samples. A single sample gives rise to hundreds of thousands of data points, each characterized by (among other things) scan number, mass-to-charge ratio […]
