Assessing the Probability That a Positive Report is False: An Approach for Molecular Epidemiology Studies
Abstract Too many reports of associations between genetic variants and common cancer sites and other complex diseases are false positives. A major reason for this unfortunate si...
Information in Organizations as Signal and Symbol
We are grateful for the comments of Kenneth Arrow, Kennette Benedict, Robert Biller, David Brereton, Louise Comfort, Jerry Feldman, Victor Fuchs, Anne Miner, J. Rounds, Alan Sal...
ART: a next-generation sequencing read simulator
Abstract Summary: ART is a set of simulation tools that generate synthetic next-generation sequencing reads. This functionality is essential for testing and benchmarking tools f...
Tropospheric Aerosol Optical Thickness from the GOCART Model and Comparisons with Satellite and Sun Photometer Measurements
The Georgia Institute of Technology–Goddard Global Ozone Chemistry Aerosol Radiation and Transport (GOCART) model is used to simulate the aerosol optical thickness τ for major t...
Research Agenda for Frailty in Older Adults: Toward a Better Understanding of Physiology and Etiology: Summary from the American Geriatrics Society/National Institute on Aging Research Conference on Frailty in Older Adults
Evolving definitions of frailty, and improved understanding of molecular and physiological declines in multiple systems that may increase vulnerability in frail, older adults ha...
Safety and Immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-1273 Vaccine in Older Adults
In this small study involving older adults, adverse events associated with the mRNA-1273 vaccine were mainly mild or moderate. The 100-μg dose induced higher binding- and neutra...
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS): land remote sensing for global change research
The first Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument is planned for launch by NASA in 1998. This instrument will provide a new and improved capability for ...
Overdiagnosis in Cancer
This article summarizes the phenomenon of cancer overdiagnosis-the diagnosis of a "cancer" that would otherwise not go on to cause symptoms or death. We describe the two prerequ...

A Parameterization for the Absorption of Solar Radiation in the Earth's Atmosphere
A method is described for rapidly computing the amount of solar energy absorbed at the earth's surface and in the atmosphere as a function of altitude. The method is a parametri...
Exchange-correlation potential with correct asymptotic behavior
In this work we analyze the properties of the exchange-correlation potential in the Kohn-Sham form of density-functional theory, which leads to requirements for approximate pote...
