The CRN Scholars Program: Career Development Within CRN

The Jahnigen scholars program: a model for faculty career development.

Over the next several decades, there will be unprecedented growth in the number of older adults in the United States. Such growth will require increasing numbers of medical providers with sufficient training in and commitment to geriatrics to meet the healthcare needs of a growing number of seniors, many of whom will be frail and disabled. The April 2008 Institute of Medicine report ‘‘Retooling...

CrN–Ag self-lubricating hard coatings

CrN–Ag composite films, 2.5–4 Am thick, were deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering on Si and stainless steel substrates in a 0.4 Pa pure nitrogen atmosphere at 500 -C. The layer composition was controlled by the relative power to 7.5-cm-diameter Ag and Cr targets to be 0, 3, 12, and 22 at.% Ag. The layers exhibit a dense columnar microstructure where the Ag is homogeneously distributed in ...

Cnv, Lrp, and Crn Effects in Deception

Copyediting, typesetting, and review of the resulting proofs will be undertaken on this manuscript before final publication. During production and pre-press, errors may be discovered that could affect the content. Abstract The cognitive view on deception proposes that lying comes with a cognitive cost. This view is supported by the finding that lying typically takes longer than truth telling. E...

Epitaxial suppression of the metal-insulator transition in CrN

Both singleand polycrystalline CrN layers are grown by reactive sputtering on MgO and quartz substrates, respectively. Temperature-dependent x-ray diffraction indicates a phase transition near 280 K to a low-temperature orthorhombic phase for polycrystalline CrN, while epitaxial constraints cause single-crystal CrN(001) and CrN(111) to remain in the cubic high-temperature phase. Electronic tran...
