This shows the PubMed listings of publications for a given faculty member, in reverse chronological order. If no publications have been retrieved by Curvita, then no publications will be found, and there will be a message "No publications listed for this faculty member." If you think this is in error, contact the Graduate Programs office via this contact form to ask that publications be retrieved.
Example: The following would display the PubMed publications listing for faculty member with a computing ID of "ahb8y"
