New Colorimetric Cytotoxicity Assay for Anticancer-Drug Screening
We have developed a rapid, sensitive, and inexpensive method for measuring the cellular protein content of adherent and suspension cultures in 96-well microtiter plates. The met...
Agency costs of free cash flow, corporate finance, and takeovers
Corporate managers are the agents of shareholders; a relationship fraught with conflicting interests. Agency theory, the analysis of such conflicts, is now a major part of the e...
Genome-wide association study of 14,000 cases of seven common diseases and 3,000 shared controls
There is increasing evidence that genome-wide association (GWA) studies represent a powerful approach to the identification of genes involved in common human diseases. We descri...

The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project.
Genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of loci for common diseases, but, for the majority of these, the mechanisms underlying disease susceptibility remain un...
Global patterns of 16S rRNA diversity at a depth of millions of sequences per sample
The ongoing revolution in high-throughput sequencing continues to democratize the ability of small groups of investigators to map the microbial component of the biosphere. In pa...
A typology of reviews: an analysis of 14 review types and associated methodologies
Abstract Background and objectives: The expansion of evidence‐based practice across sectors has lead to an increasing variety of review types. However, the diversity of terminol...
