Evidence of Multiple Coordinate Representations during Generalization of Motor Learning
(Springer Verlag, 2015-01)
Several studies have suggested that the motor system takes advantage of a coordinate
system when learning a novel sensorimotor environment. Such investigations, however, have not
distinguished between initial preferences ...
Health and Transportation: Small Scale Area Association
(Elsevier Inc., 2015)
Public health, as a major factor influencing the livability and well-being of a community has 2 been a subject of interest in many academic fields. It is postulated that public health has strong 3 correlations with various ...
Call the Plumber: Improvable Models as Priming Artifacts in Student Engineering Design Activities
(2015-10-21)
Within the last decade, there has been an increased emphasis on making engineering education accessible to K-12 students and focus more on making students engineering enabled. Research in this area is in its early stages ...
On the two-user interference channel with lack of knowledge of the interference codebook at one receiver. Ieee Transactions on Information Theory
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015-03)
In multiuser information theory, it is often assumed
that every node in the network possesses all codebooks used in
the network. This assumption may be impractical in distributed
ad hoc, cognitive, or heterogeneous ...
Use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to Measure Muscle Activation and Response to Exercise
(2015-10-21)
These dissertation experiments test the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a neurophysiological measurement tool that can measure changes following exercise interventions, in the first dorsal interosseous (FDI) ...
Burn Injury Alters the Intestinal Microbiome and Increases Gut Permeability and Bacterial Translocation.
(Public Library of Science, 2015-07-08)
Sepsis remains one of the leading causes of death in burn patients who survive the initial insult of injury. Disruption of the intestinal epithelial barrier has been shown after burn injury; this can lead to the translocation ...
A galloylated dimeric proanthocyanidin from grape seed exhibits dentin biomodification potential
(Fitoterapia, 2015-03)
Grape seeds are a rich source of polyphenols, especially proanthocyanidins (PACs), and are also known for the presence of galloylated oligomeric PACs (OPACs). The present study focuses on the phytochemical methodology for ...
A Site Plan for the Institute of Urban Studies
(2015)
My research at UIC is within the field of architecture and design processes, specifically on metacognitive feedback loops and self-criticality within the design process. I've focused my research on visual representation ...
Engraved in Stone: Desert Shamans of South America
(2015)
Located in the deserts of southern Peru, my studies have led me to explore ancient road systems that once connected vibrant prehistoric communities and agricultural landscapes. Due to climate change and increased aridification, ...
Glacier Hopping
