Atherosclerosis and Matrix Metalloproteinases: Experimental Molecular MR Imaging in Vivo
P947 improved MR imaging for atherosclerosis through MMP-specific targeting. The results were validated and provide support for further assessment of P947 as a potential tool for the identification of unstable…

Genome-Wide and Candidate Gene Association Study of Cigarette Smoking Behaviors
The contribution of common genetic variation to one or more established smoking behaviors was investigated in a joint analysis of two genome wide association studies.

Expression of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors and Subunit Messenger RNAs in the Enteric Nervous System of the Neonatal Rat
The expression of heteromeric nAChR and receptor subunit mRNAs was investigated in the neonatal rat ENS using receptor autoradiography with the radiolabeled ligand 125I-epibatidine, and in situ hybridization with subtype specific probes for…

Rodent Models of Nicotine Reward: What Do They Tell Us About Tobacco Abuse in Humans?
Here we discuss the most commonly used animal models including, self-administration (SA), place conditioning (PC), and the intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS) paradigms in rodents.

Analyzing Online Teacher Networks: Cyber Networks Require Cyber Research Tools
The authors argue that conceptual and methodological limitations in existing research approaches severely hamper theory building and empirical exploration of teacher learning and collaboration through cyber-enabled networks.

Towards a Pilot-Scale Membrane System for Pre-Combustion CO2 Separation
Initial results indicate that the increase in cost of electricity (COE) for the PBI based capture system is significantly less than that of a Selexol based capture system.

Robust Efficient Video Fingerprinting
We have developed a video fingerprinting system with robustness and efficiency as the primary and secondary design criteria.

Simulation of a Process to Capture CO2 from IGCC Syngas Using a High Temperature PBI Membrane
In this paper, we are presenting the preliminary results of a process simulation using the ASPEN program under several scenerios including the IGCC with no CO2 capture, IGCC with Selexol, and…

Nicotine Is Neuroprotective When Administered Before But Not After Nigrostriatal Damage in Rats and Monkeys
Here we tested whether nicotine is also beneficial when given to rats and monkeys with pre-existing nigrostriatal damage.

Problem Solving, Working Memory, and Motor Correlates of Association and Commissural Fiber Bundles in Normal Aging: a Quantitative Fiber Tracking Study
We used quantitative fiber tracking to examine age effects on commissural, bilateral association, and fornix fibers in young and elderly healthy men and women and tested functional correlates with concurrent…
