ShcD adaptor protein drives invasion of triple negative breast cancer cells by aberrant activation of EGFR signaling

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identified adaptor protein ShcD as upregulated in triple‐negative breast cancer and found its expression to be correlated with reduced patient survival and increased invasion in cell models. Using a proteomic screen, we identified novel ShcD binding partners involved in EGFR signaling pathways.

How to Clean Up the Common Core Mess in Massachusetts

open access: yesNonpartisan Education Review, 2020
With the onset of Common Core, Massachusetts’s education standards for public schools have declined. How can the state regain lost ground? It’s actually not that hard. Solid standards already exist.

Quantum Statistics: Is there an effective fermion repulsion or boson attraction? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Physicists often claim that there is an effective repulsion between fermions, implied by the Pauli principle, and a corresponding effective attraction between bosons. We examine the origins of such exchange force ideas, the validity for them, and the areas where they are highly misleading.

Cluster of an Unusual Amnestic Syndrome — Massachusetts, 2012–2016

open access: yesMMWR. Morbidity and mortality weekly report, 2017
In November 2015, a neurologist in the Boston, Massachusetts, area reported four cases of an uncommon amnestic syndrome involving acute and complete ischemia of both hippocampi, as identified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to the Massachusetts ...

Position‐dependent offset corrections for ring applicator reconstruction in cervical cancer brachytherapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Due to the tight curvature in their design, ring applicators are usually associated with large positioning errors. The standard practice to correct for these deviations based on global offsets may not be sufficient to comply with the recommended tolerance.

Reduction of laser intensity noise over 1 MHz band for single atom trapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We reduce the intensity noise of laser light by using an electro-optic modulator and a cousto-optic modulator in series. The electro-optic modulator reduces noise at high frequency(10 kHz to 1 MHz), while the acousto-optic modulator sets the average power of the light and reduces noise at low frequency (up to 10 kHz).

Changes in Mortality After Massachusetts Health Care Reform

open access: yesAnnals of Internal Medicine, 2015
TO THE EDITOR: Sommers and colleagues (1) evaluated whether the 2006 Massachusetts health care reform, which reduced the proportion of persons without health insurance, affected mortality. They concluded that it did, in fact, decrease mortality. If true,

Implementation of needle‐tracking technology for real‐time transrectal ultrasound‐guided interstitial gynecological HDR brachytherapy: A feasibility study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the feasibility of adapting a commercial prostate biopsy system for transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)‐guided hybrid gynecological (GYN) high‐dose‐rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT). Leveraging 3D‐TRUS and MR image fusion, the prototype system aims to improve real‐time needle placement accuracy.

The Relationship between Childhood Obesity, Low Socioeconomic Status, and Race/Ethnicity: Lessons from Massachusetts.

open access: yesChildhood Obesity, 2015
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown race/ethnicity, particularly African American and/or Hispanic status, to be a predictor of overweight/obese status in children. However, these studies have failed to adjust for low socioeconomic status (SES).

Machine stability and dosimetry for ultra‐high dose rate FLASH radiotherapy human clinical protocol

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The FLASH effect, induced by ultra‐high dose rate (UHDR) irradiations, offers the potential to spare normal tissue while effectively treating tumors. It is important to achieve precise and accurate dose delivery and to establish reliable detector systems, particularly for clinical trials needed to help the clinical transfer of FLASH‐
