A numerical solution to Hodgkin and Huxley's partial differential
system for the propagated action potential is presented. In
addition a three dimensional demonstration of the absolute refractory
period is given. Lastly, theoretical evidence supporting
Rushton's hypothesis is presented.
In addition to a dynamic show of leaves, students, and pumpkins, October also brings a fresh new plate of events honoring Oregon Archives Month to the OSU campus!
The OSU Archives hosted a showcase of historical recipes from the collections. Drawing from Extension publications, USDA Farmer’s Bulletins, and other gems...
This case study looks at the establishment and development of the Oregon Hops and Brewing Archives. It addresses planning, implementation, results, and lessons learned.
Oregon is a special place, known for stunning natural beauty, a good amount of rain, and a predilection for pushing the boundaries of cultural norms. Its...
Statement of the Problem:
The focal point of student activity centers around a student's
residential affiliation. Therefore, a student's residence should be
considered as a vital area for continued research. There have been
a number of studies directly related to a student population, some
focusing on activities and some on...
The Oregon State University Archives has a robust photograph collection, which is reflected in its hearty companion digital collection. These collections document the history of the university, as well as the agriculture and natural resources of the Pacific Northwest. While the physical and online collections are popular, we were interested...
The computational identification of gene Transcription Start Sites (TSSs) can provide insights into the regulation and function of genes without performing expensive experiments, particularly in organisms with incomplete annotations. High-resolution general-purpose TSS prediction remains a challenging problem, with little recent progress on the identification and differentiation of TSSs which are...
Benzene is a widespread urban pollutant and monitoring results show concentrations are particularly high in Portland, Oregon. Nationally, benzene air pollution is the largest contributor to total cancer risk from air pollutants. We used data from several data sets including: modeled benzene distribution at the census block group level from...
