A bacterium was isolated from a water sample collected from the Kephart Prong in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This isolate did not have a conclusive match to any known bacteria in the Ribosomal Database Project (RDP);...
This work will consist of three chapters and a conclusion. The goal is to explain the need for the Surge, its image, and its relative success. Many of the histories written about the Surge appear within the first three years of...
Some of the 5.3 million people in the US who are living with some form of paralysis may be assisted by a neural prosthesis that employs Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). FES produces muscular contractions by applying an...
