The Jackson Laboratory

The Roscoe B. Jackson Laboratory, known commonly in the scientific field as the Jackson Laboratory, was founded by Clarence Cook Little [5] in May 1929. The lab has been pivotal in research with in vitro [6] fertilization [7], teratomas, gene replacement therapy for birth defects [8] , and more because its researchers have focused from the beginning on developing the mouse [9] as a model organi...

Genetic Algorithm-based Optimization Procedures to Find the Constants of Johnson-Cook Constitutive Equation

Johnson-Cook constitutive equation is one of the most famous constitutive equations that have ever been developed to model the hot deformation flow curves of different materials. This equation is a predefined model in the traditional finite element codes to describe the material behavior in applications such as simulating the manufacturing processes. In this work, two different genetic algorith...

Of mice and men and low unit cost Making mice : Standardizing animals for American biomedical research , 1900 – 1955

Making mice is a contribution to scientific biography, to the history of laboratory model organisms, and to the historiography of scientific standardization. The heart of the story is the development of standardized mice (i.e. genetically inbred strains) for use in cancer research, basic mammalian genetics, and other allied lines of work. One theme is the work of learning how to create such str...

Mathematical Counterstory and African American Male Students: Urban Mathematics Education from a Critical Race Theory Perspective

Theories of Pavlovian Conditioning

Clarence started dating Felicia several months ago. Their very different personalities— Clarence is quiet and shy, and Felicia is outgoing and social—did not keep them from becoming close. Felicia introduced Clarence to a social life he had never before experienced; they enjoyed romantic dinners and exciting parties. Felicia was an excellent dancer, which made dancing fun. However, Clarence was...
