My research program is focused on understanding the mechanisms by which tumors develop from once-normal cells resident in their natural tissue microenvironments, a process that evidently involves the ...
Lenore Fahrig, PhD, is Chancellor’s Professor of Biology and Gray Merriam Chair in Landscape Ecology at Carleton University, Canada. She earned her BSc in Biology from Queen’s University, her MSc from ...
I conduct field and theoretical studies of drainage-basin, hillslope, and fluvial geomorphology and of the application of hydrology and geomorphology in landscape management and hazard analysis. I ...
My current research topics are in the fields of econometrics and economic theory, specifically, the economics of aging, savings behavior, demographic trends, housing mobility, dynamics of health and ...
The structure and function of ion channels with emphasis on K+ channels is the subject of my research. These integral membrane proteins mediate the passive flow of K+ ions across cell membranes, ...
Throughout my career I have studied split-brain and other types of neurologic patients, in an effort to understand both the functional lateralization in the human brain and how the cerebral ...
My principal research area is theoretical plasma physics applied to fusion energy. The central problem of magnetic fusion research is determining the rate of escape of thermal energy from a fully ...
Throughout my scientific career I have--in addition to a few digressions--been engaged in the study of the ecology and physiology of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms and their role in aquatic ...
With the assistance of my graduate students and postdoctoral associates, I have explored chemical reactions in both gases and liquid, with the goal of understanding the motions and configurations of ...
As an aerospace engineering professor and consultant, I have studied the mechanics and control of spacecraft, aircraft, missiles, helicopters, and robots. In particular I have studied optimal flight ...
My research uses DNA microarrays and other genomic approaches to explore a wide range of fundamental questions in gene regulation, cell biology, physiology, development, and medicine. For example, we ...
