Using a Cross-disciplinary Teaching Approach to Attenuate the Void: Building Educators and Researchers at a Historically Black College/University

Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program AND Program Evaluation

Davis CH, Tani NE.
GSID: S-KIrdjFW6kJ
CH Davis, NE Tani, A Christon - … and the Burden of Being a Black …, 2021 - emerald.com

This chapter outlines the efforts of two tenure-earning faculty members in distinctly different disciplines. Those navigating through a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) context face a unique set of challenges relative to institutional infrastructure that lends support for...

Optogenetic pacing in Drosophila melanogaster.

Science advances

Alex A, Li A, Tanzi RE, Zhou C.
PMID: 26601299
Sci Adv. 2015 Oct 09;1(9):e1500639. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.1500639. eCollection 2015 Oct.

Electrical stimulation is currently the gold standard for cardiac pacing. However, it is invasive and nonspecific for cardiac tissues. We recently developed a noninvasive cardiac pacing technique using optogenetic tools, which are widely used in neuroscience. Optogenetic pacing of...

Evaluation and treatment of syncope in infants.

Progress in pediatric cardiology

Kochilas L, Tanel RE.
PMID: 11457676
Prog Pediatr Cardiol. 2001 Aug;13(2):71-82. doi: 10.1016/s1058-9813(01)00090-x.

Syncope in the infant and newborn occurs as a loss of consciousness due to a variety of etiologies. Because syncope at this age may be a harbinger of sudden infant death, the symptom provokes anxiety and challenges clinicians to...

Ceftriaxone/Amikacin vs Ceftazidime/Amikacin as Empirical Therapy for Fever in Patients with Haematological Malignancy and Severe Granulocytopenia: Clinical and Economic Outcomes.

Clinical drug investigation

Tissue engineered lamb heart valve leaflets (N - 3) were constructed by repeatedly seeding a concentrated suspension of autologous myofibroblasts onto a biodegradable synthetic polymeric scaffold composed of fibers made from polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid. Over a 2-week...

Fabrication of chemically cross-linked porous gelatin matrices.

Journal of applied biomaterials & biomechanics : JABB

Bozzini S, Petrini P, Altomare L, Tanzi MC.
PMID: 20740429
J Appl Biomater Biomech. 2009 Sep-Dec;7(3):194-9.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to chemically cross-link gelatin, by reacting its free amino groups with an aliphatic diisocyanate.METHODS: To produce hydrogels with controllable properties, the number of reacting amino groups was carefully determined. Porosity was introduced...

A current view of Alzheimer's disease.

F1000 biology reports

Hooli BV, Tanzi RE.
PMID: 20948630
F1000 Biol Rep. 2009 Jul 08;1:54. doi: 10.3410/B1-54.

Several genes that influence susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been known for over two decades. Recent advances have elucidated novel candidate genes and the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration in AD. Here, we summarize what we have learned from...

Natural Modulators of Amyloid-Beta Precursor Protein Processing.

Current Alzheimer research

Zhang C, Tanzi RE.
PMID: 22998566
Curr Alzheimer Res. 2012 Sep 13; Epub 2012 Sep 13.

Alzheimer�s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease and the primary cause of dementia, with no cure currently available. The pathogenesis of AD is believed to be primarily driven by Aβ, the principal component of senile plaques. Aβ is...
