Welcome to OpenBU
The Boston University Institutional Repository contains documents and publications authored or co-authored by BU faculty, students, and staff.
OpenBU is an open access repository, which means that the full text of the work deposited here is freely accessible to the world via the web. Access is restricted only in unavoidable instances, for example where publisher copyright restrictions prevail. However over 90% of scholarly publishers worldwide now allow some version of the documents they publish to be made available in a repository such as this.

Dissecting the dynamics of signaling events in the BMP, WNT, and NODAL cascade during self-organized fate patterning in human gastruloids.
(2019-10)During gastrulation, the pluripotent epiblast self-organizes into the 3 germ layers-endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm, which eventually form the entire embryo. Decades of research in the mouse embryo have revealed that a ... -
Measurement of nonlinear piezoelectric coefficients using a micromechanical resonator
(AMER INST PHYSICS, 2018-08-20)We describe and demonstrate a method by which the nonlinear piezoelectric properties of a piezoelectric material may be measured by detecting the force that it applies on a suspended micromechanical resonator at one of its ... -
Fixed effects estimation of large-T panel data models
(ANNUAL REVIEWS, 2018-01-01)This article reviews recent advances in fixed effect estimation of panel data models for long panels, where the number of time periods is relatively large. We focus on semiparametric models with unobserved individual and ... -
Semiparametric estimation of structural functions in nonseparable triangular models
(2019-10-05)This paper introduces two classes of semiparametric triangular systems with nonadditively separable unobserved heterogeneity. They are based on distribution and quantile regression modeling of the reduced-form conditional ... -
Expectancies, working alliance, and outcome in transdiagnostic and single diagnosis treatment for anxiety disorders: an investigation of mediation
(SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERS, 2018-04-01)Patients’ outcome expectancies and the working alliance are two psychotherapy process variables that researchers have found to be associated with treatment outcome, irrespective of treatment approach and problem area. ... -
High-speed in vitro intensity diffraction tomography
(SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2019-12-28)We demonstrate a label-free, scan-free intensity diffraction tomography technique utilizing annular illumination (aIDT) to rapidly characterize large-volume three-dimensional (3-D) refractive index distributions in vitro. ... -
Picturing another culture: Developing language proficiency, empathy, and visual literacy through art
(Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages, 2019-02-28)Integrating art (paintings, sculptures, photography, and other types of images) into second language (L2) instruction, can have a positive effect on language acquisition and developing intercultural understanding. As the ... -
Hospital implementation of health information technology and quality of care: are they related?
(BioMed Central, 2012-09-27)Recently, there has been considerable effort to promote the use of health information technology (HIT) in order to improve health care quality. However, relatively little is known about the extent to which HIT implementation ... -
At home on board: the Kyrenia ship and the goods of its crew
(Phoibos Verlag, Vienna, 2019-11-01)The Kyrenia Ship, discovered in 1964 largely intact one mile north of the northern Cypriot town of Kyrenia, is still the best preserved small Greek merchant ship ever found. Its cargo included about 400 amphoras, most from ... -
Direct acceleration: cosmic and exoplanet synergies
(2019-03-13)Direct measurement of acceleration is a key scientific goal for both cosmology and exoplanets. For cosmology, the concept of redshift drift (more than 60 years old by the 2020s) could directly establish the Friedmann-Lem ...
