My experiences with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (referred to as the Corps) has been an integral part of my formal education. My work with the Corps fulfills my internship requirement for my Masters Degree in Marine Resource Management. The work here has allowed me to use my academic...
This publication consists of reports of projects carried out by
students in the Marine Resource Management Program in the School of
Oceanography at Oregon State University. These studies, sponsored by
the OSU Sea Grant Program and the School of Oceanography, were carried
out during the period 1974 to 1980. The...

Endoxifen has recently been identified as the predominant active metabolite of tamoxifen and is currently being developed as a novel hormonal therapy for the treatment of endocrine sensitive breast cancer. Based on past studies in breast cancer cells and model systems, endoxifen classically functions as an anti-estrogenic compound. Since estrogen...
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers are reported for 68 nuclear-encoded microsatellites developed during the past several years from genomic libraries of red drum (Sciaenops ocelwtus). All68 microsatellites were tested for reproducibility and polymorphism on a sample of five to 12 red drum; 60 of the microsatellites were found to be...
BACKGROUND: Occupational exposure to extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF) is a
suspected risk factor for brain tumours, however the literature is inconsistent. Few studies have
assessed whether ELF in different time windows of exposure may be associated with specific
histologic types of brain tumours. This study examines the association...
