Rall JA. Nobel Laureate A. V. Hill and the refugee scholars, 1933–1945. Adv Physiol Educ 41: 248–259, 2017; doi:10.1152/ advan.00181.2016.—A. V. Hill shared the 1922 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his investigation of the energetics of muscular contraction. His scientific work has been well chronicled over many years (Rall JA. Mechanism of Muscular Contraction, 2014). There is the na...

Along with the rapid development of information and communication technologies, educators are trying to keep up with the dramatic changes in our electronic environment. These days mobile technology, with popular devices such as iPhones, Android phones, and iPads, is steering our learning environment towards increasingly focusing on mobile learning or m-Learning. Currently, most interfaces emplo...

Leukemic cells of 27 children [14 patients with initial acute lymphoblastic leukemia (iALL), 8 patients with relapsed ALL (rALL), and 5 patients with acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL)] were evaluated for their sensitivity to methotrexate (MTX) and five novel antifolate drugs, which have the potential to circumvent MTX resistance. The novel antifolates include a polyglutamatable [edatrexate...

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES, thejournal of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, was first published as an experimental journal in April of 1972. The function of the NIEHS is to conduct and support basic biomedical research on the effects of various environmental agents and conditions adverse to human health and to inform the Federal and scientific community of possible...

Compared to the onboard camera and laser scanner, radar sensor provides lighting weather invariant sensing, which is naturally suitable for long-term localization under adverse conditions. However, data sparse noisy, resulting in challenges mapping. On other hand, most popular available map currently built by lidar. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end deep learning framework Radar Localizat...

What is the optimal shape of an axon? Of course, optimality refers to some particular criterion. In this paper, we look at the case of an axon tapered at one end and connected at the other end to a soma. The electrical potential in the fiber follows the classical cable equations as established by W. Rall. We are interested in the shape of the axon which minimizes either the attenuation in time ...

A star-factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph of G such that each of its component is a star. Clearly, every graph without isolated vertices has a star factor. A graph G is called star-uniform if all star-factors of G have the same number of components. To characterize star-uniform graphs was an open problem posed by Hartnell and Rall, which is motivated by the minimum cost spanning tree an...

Asbestos: Facts and Fiction I appreciate the opportunity to address the omissions, inaccuracies, and innuendos in the position paper by David P. Rall, "Media and Science: Harmless Dioxin, Benign CFCs, and Good Asbestos" (EHP 102:10). Unfortunately, Rail not only misinterprets the conclusions of our 1990 Science article by Mossman et al. (1) but he fails to mention the database, scientific panel...
