Mammalian female reproduction requires preovulatory surges of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from neurons in the preoptic area (POA) of the hypothalamus, initiated by elevated estradiol (E₂). Rising E₂ activates a subset ofsexually dimorphic Kisspeptin neurons in the female, located in the anteroventralperiventricular nuclei (AVPV). Conversely, E₂ negative feedback is mediated by...

Ovulation requires preovulatory surges of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from preoptic hypothalamic neurons, initiated by elevated ovarian estradiol (E₂). Rising estradiol activates a subset of sexually dimorphic kisspeptin (Kiss-1) neurons in the female, located in the anteroventral periventricular nuclei (AVPV). Conversely, estradiol negative feedback on GnRH secretion is mediated by a...

The story of Leo Szilard has not been told in its full complexity. This is especially so of the role imagination played in Szilard’s worldview. Szilard, like many other scientists in the mid-twentieth century, worked on the Manhattan Project. Like these other wartime participants, the work and relationships formed during...
These essays are an attempt to rebuild memories that explore the nature of work and family. They explore how work knocks against the joints of the body and against the joints between family members, and, as time passes, how the next generation inherits the family line of work only to...
Affective reactions to daily stressors are known mechanisms through which daily stressors impact health and well-being (e.g., Charles et al., 2013; Piazza et al., 2013; Sin et al., 2015; Stawski et al., 2019). Therefore, understanding what may promote resilience or vulnerability to such affective reactions is imperative. Theoretical perspectives (Almeida,...
Daily social stressors are important everyday experiences that influence an individual’s daily health and well-being across the lifespan. One pathway through which daily social stressors influence health and well-being is through changes in positive and negative affect. The vast majority of previous research has focused on individual difference characteristics to...
This paper deals with finite abstract Witt rings in the case where
-1 = 1 in the square class group.
The results also apply to Witt rings
of quadratic forms over fields where √-1
is in the field.
The concept
of relative rigidity is studied in finite abstract Witt rings...
