• Master-Slave Algorithm for Highly Accurate and Rapid Computation of the Voigt/Complex Error Function 

  Abrarov, S. M.; Quine, B. M. (Journal of Mathematics Research, 2014-06)

  We obtain a rational approximation of the Voigt/complex error function by Fourier expansion of the exponential function ${e^{ - {{\left( {t - 2\sigma } \right)}^2}}}$ and present master-slave algorithm for its efficient ...

• Antiviral Strategies for Emerging Influenza Viruses in Remote Communities 

  Marek, Laskowski; Amy L., Greer; Seyed M., Moghadas (PLoS ONE, 2013-04-22)

  Background: Due to the lack of timely access to resources for critical care, strategic use of antiviral drugs is crucial for mitigating the impact of novel influenza viruses with pandemic potential in remote and isolated ...

• A Test for Pre-Adapted Phenotypic Plasticity in the Invasive Tree Acer negundo L. 

  Laurent J., Lamarque; Annabel J., Porté; Camille, Eymeric; Jean-Baptiste, Lasnier; Christopher J., Lortie; Sylvain, Delzon (PLoS ONEPLoS ONE, 2013-09-09)

  Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism associated with the spread of exotic plants and previous studies have found that invasive species are generally more plastic than co-occurring species. Comparatively, the evolution ...

• The Heterodimeric Glycoprotein Hormone, GPA2/GPB5, Regulates Ion Transport across the Hindgut of the Adult Mosquito, Aedes aegypti
