• Mutational Mechanisms That Activate Wnt Signaling and Predict Outcomes in Colorectal Cancer Patients 

  Hankey, William; McIlhatton, Michael A.; Ebede, Kenechi; Hancioglu, Baris; Zhang, Jie; Brock, Guy N.; Huang, Kun; Groden, Joanna (AACR, 2018-02)

  APC biallelic loss-of-function mutations are the most prevalent genetic changes in colorectal tumors, but it is unknown whether these mutations phenocopy gain-of-function mutations in the CTNNB1 gene encoding β-catenin ...
• A Unified Model for Joint Normalization and Differential Gene Expression Detection in RNA-Seq data 

  Liu, Kefei; Ye, Jieping; Yang, Yang; Shen, Li; Jiang, Hui (IEEE, 2018-01)

  The RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) is becoming increasingly popular for quantifying gene expression levels. Since the RNA-seq measurements are relative in nature, between-sample normalization of counts is an essential step in ...
• Preserving Graph Utility in Anonymized Social Networks? A Study on the Persistent Homology 

  Gao, Tianchong; Li, Feng (IEEE, 2017-10)

  Following the trend of privacy preserving online social network publishing, various anonymization mechanisms have been designed and employed. Many differential privacy-based mechanisms claim that they can preserve the ...
• Learning to Talk Back to Texts 

  Leland, Christine H.; Ociepka, Anne; Kuonen, Kate; Bangert, Sara (Wiley, 2018-05)

  This article describes an informal study that focused on teaching eighth graders to take a critical stance and talk back to texts. In this era of “fake news,” “alternative facts,” and what has been called a “post‐truth” ...
• Persistent elevations in circulating INS DNA among subjects with longstanding type 1 diabetes 

  Neyman, Anna; Nelson, Jennifer; Tersey, Sarah; Mirmira, Raghavendra G.; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Sims, Emily K. (Wiley, 2018)

  Aim To evaluate whether β cells continue to undergo death in the later stages of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Materials and Methods Fasting banked sera from a cross‐section of 90 participants in the T1D Exchange Registry ...
