Carving of a weasel made of wood by Cherokee artisan Isaac Ratlif in the 1970s
Woodcarving: duck
This wood carving was made by Isaac Ratlif, a member of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and Qualla Arts and Crafts Mutual artisan cooperative
Woodcarving: pig
Since the mid-20th century, woodcarving has become a popular craft on the Qualla Boundary. Animals are a favorite motif. This pig, carved from wood, was made by Isaac Ratlif, a member of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians

Comparison of Two Virtual Screening Techniques for the Discovery of Novel SERCA Inhibitors
Inhibitors of the enzyme sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) are valuable tools for the study of the enzyme’s physiological role. They also bear the potential of being developed into a promising new class of anti-cancer agents. Here, we describe the use of two different computational methods to virtually screen a large compound library for novel SERCA inhibitors. Using a docking-based protocol and an approach using recursive partitioning, we screened the same compound library. To test the performance of both screening methods, we took the top-ranked candidates from each screen and measured their inhibitory potencies for SERCA, using bioassays
