Discovery of 1-[3-(4-Bromo-2-Methyl-2H-Pyrazol-3-Yl)-4-Methoxyphenyl]-3-(2, 4-Difluorophenyl)Urea (Nelotanserin) and Related 5-Hydroxytryptamine 2A Inverse Agonists for the Treatment of Insomnia
We describe here a series of 5-HT2A inverse-agonists that when dosed in rats, both consolidate the stages of NREM sleep, resulting in fewer awakenings, and increase a physiological measure of sleep…

Handheld, microfluidic-based detection platform for on-the-flow analyte characterization
We have demonstrated a new optical detection technique that delivers high signal-to-noise discrimination without precision optics to enable a flow cytometer that can combine high performance, robustness, compactness, low cost,…

SU11248 (Sunitinib) Directly Inhibits the Activity of Mammalian 5′-AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK)
Here we report that the chemotherapeutic drug SU11248 (sunitinib) is at least as potent an inhibitor of AMPK as compound C, which is a commonly used experimental direct inhibitor of…

Assessing 21st Century Skills: Summary Of A Workshop
Pellegrino reflects on the need for substantial change in what we expect students to know and be able to do in science, how science should be taught, and how science…

Unraveling a Card Trick
The principle underlying the card trick can be proved in a number of ways. We present the argument as a series of transformations that demystify the trick and describe its…
