The following publications are original research papers from the P01 Program Project (2003-2008). No in-preparation publications are included and where appropriate, those manuscripts that are either in press or in review/re-submission are noted accordingly. Links to the manuscript are provided as they become eligible and available via PubMed Central. Secondary links are also made available those PubMed Central only provide an abstract with a link to the actual journal. We will update this list once publications are accepted for publication and made available.
