This article examines the reflexive, biosocial nature of genomic meaning making around race, drawing on discourse analysis of 732 articles on genomics and race published from the years 1986-2010, in-depth interviews with 36 of the world's most elite genomics researchers, interviews with 15 critics, policymakers, and trainees involved in debates over race, and participant observation at a core g...

A novel two-step paradigm was used to investigate the parallel programming of consecutive, stimulus-elicited ('reflexive') and endogenous ('voluntary') saccades. The mean latency of voluntary saccades, made following the first reflexive saccades in two-step conditions, was significantly reduced compared to that of voluntary saccades made in the single-step control trials. The latency of the fir...

and Applied Analysis 3 to a class of complex matrix equations with conjugate and transpose of the unknowns. Jonsson and Kågström 24, 25 proposed recursive block algorithms for solving the coupled Sylvester matrix equations and the generalized Sylvester and Lyapunov Matrix equations. Very recently, Huang et al. 26 presented a finite iterative algorithms for the one-sided and generalized coupled ...

For a contingent differential equation that takes values in the closed, convex, nonempty subsets of a Banach space E, we prove an existence theorem and we investigate the extendability of solutions and the closedness and continuity properties of solution funnels. We consider first a space E that is separable and reflexive and then a space E with a separable second dual space. We also consider t...

The goal of achieving powerful problem solving capabilities leads to the “advice taker” form of program and the associated problem of control. This proposal outlines an approach to this problem based on the construction of problem solvers with advanced self-knowledge and introspection capabilities. 1 The Problem of Control Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control, These three alone lead lif...

BACKGROUND Cough reflex testing is a validated tool for identifying patients at risk of silent aspiration. However, inter- and intra-rater reliabilities of perceptual judgements of cough strength are sub-optimal. Although there are clinically established methods for measuring volitional cough strength, no similar methods are identified for reflexive cough strength. This study evaluated three me...

The gender information in written Chinese third person pronouns is not symmetrically encoded: the character for "he" (, with semantic radical , meaning human) is used as a default referring to every individual, while the character for "she" (, with semantic radical , meaning woman) indicates females only. This critical feature could result in different patterns of processing of gender informati...

 For a Banach algebra $fA$, we introduce ~$c.c(fA)$, the set of all $phiin fA^*$ such that $theta_phi:fAto  fA^*$ is a completely continuous operator, where $theta_phi$ is defined by $theta_phi(a)=acdotphi$~~ for all $ain fA$. We call $fA$, a completely continuous Banach algebra if $c.c(fA)=fA^*$. We give some examples of completely continuous Banach algebras and a sufficient condition for an o...

We consider the time-discretized problem of quasi-static evolution in perfect plasticity posed a non-reflexive Banach space. Based on novel equivalent reformulation reflexive space, primal is characterized as Fenchel dual classical incremental stress problem. This allows to obtain necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for time-discrete problems plasticity. Furthermore, consistency prim...
