- Description:
- Mahmud’s Bangali language monograph, Bangali Musolman Proshno, argues that the national historical narrative of Bengali Muslims has racialized and Orientalized the entire population of peasant Muslims (150 million people, or about 80 percent of the country’s population). This has served to protect the power of the ruling elite since the...

- Description:
- Situated within motherhood studies, this edited volume is at the interdisciplinary intersection of literature, life writing, gender, (im)migration, refugee, and cultural studies. Contributors examine literary fiction, memoirs, and children’s literature. The borders that displaced mothers face are examined through frameworks of postcolonialism, nationalism, feminism, and diaspora studies.

The work presented in this thesis includes three disease-modifying approaches to disrupt pathological AβO-related mechanisms in AD: (1) inhibiting AβO buildup, (2) blocking AβO-induced tau phosphorylation, and (3) neutralizing AβOs. These three approaches were tested in...

- Very few studies have examined school racial climate in racially diverse school contexts. School racial climate refers to “perceptions of interracial interactions and the socialization around race and culture in a school” (Byrd, 2017, p. 700). The association between interracial peer interactions, psychological well-being, and academic outcomes is well documented,...

Both arguments were so effective that a political uneasiness on the subject still lingers. In The Politics of Black Joy, Lindsey Stewart...

- Description:
- Gene expression is a regulated process that is driven by ATP consumption. Therefore, regulation must be coupled to constraints imposed by the level of energy metabolism. Here, we explore this relationship both theoretically and experimentally. A mathematical model predicts that activators of gene expression have variable impact depending on metabolic...

- Desmosomal cadherins are a recent evolutionary innovation that make up the adhesive core of highly specialized intercellular junctions called desmosomes. Desmosomal cadherins, desmogleins and desmocollins, are related to the classical cadherins but their cytoplasmic domains are tailored for anchoring intermediate filaments instead of actin to sites of cell-cell adhesion. The...

- Dopamine (DA) neurons are involved in many brain functions, and their dysfunction is associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. In recent years, our lab and others have found that DA neurons are molecularly diverse through single-cell gene expression profiling. An outstanding question in the field is whether this heterogeneity is encoded...
