Targeting Breast Cancer: Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel D-Fructose Based Molecular Imaging Agents And Cytotoxic Noscapine Analogues
DownloadFall 2017
Among the characteristic hallmarks of cancer cells is their high replicative potential, which in turn leads to the overexpression of the facilitative hexose transporters (GLUTs) to provide the energy required for cell growth and proliferation. Interestingly, in 1996 the major D-fructose...

Testing the Limits of Approximate Solutions of the Quantum-Classical Liouville Equation for Modelling Quantum Processes Occurring in Condensed Phase Environments
DownloadFall 2018
Many methods exist for simulating the nonadiabatic dynamics of mixed quantum-classical systems, some of which are more accurate than others. Some of the most accurate methods are based on solving the quantum-classical Liouville equation (QCLE) represented in the adiabatic basis, in terms of an...
