Recombinant DNA Technology - ist Prospects for Fundamental Research an for Biotechnological Applications by Werner Arber

“…Attention is given here to ethical and environmental concerns with regard to such applications: 1) risks of introducing hybrid organisms with undesirable properties into the environment; 2) ethical barriers against attempts to transplant genes into human beings; 3) risks of abuse in the application of the methodology; 4) more general problems related to an undesirable increase in population density as a consequence of attempts to ameliorate human living conditions. …”

Chemodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Galaxy Evolution by Simone Recchi

“…In this review I give a summary of the state of the art for what concerns the chemo-dynamical numerical modelling of galaxies in general and of dwarf galaxies in particular. In particular, I focus my attention on (i) initial conditions, (ii) the equations to solve; (iii) the star formation process in galaxies, (iv) the initial mass function, (v) the chemical feedback, (vi) the mechanical feedback, (vii) the environmental effects. …”

Characterizing patients with chronic scrotal content pain: a retrospective review of clinical presentations by Jacob Lam, Emily Solsrud, Alexander Hart, Abigail Moore, Amy Pearlman

“…When assessing the association between pain and other domains, more severe chronic scrotal pain was associated with worse pain in and around the genitourinary system ( p  < 0.001), worse urinary symptoms ( p  = 0.001), worse hip ( p  = 0.001) and back ( p  < 0.001) symptoms, worse sexual function ( p  = 0.025), and worse anxiety ( p  = 0.019) and depression ( p  = 0.003) symptoms. …”

Narrowband Theta Investigations for Detecting Cognitive Mental Load by Silviu Ionita, Daniela Andreea Coman

“…The way in which EEG signals reflect mental tasks that vary in duration and intensity is a key topic in the investigation of neural processes concerning neuroscience in general and BCI technologies in particular. More recent research has reinforced historical studies that highlighted theta band activity in relation to cognitive performance. …”

Experimental Investigation on Damage Characteristics and Early Warning of Frozen Coal under Uniaxial Compression by Xiang Sun, Bin Liu, Qi Dong, Feng Shi

“…The damage model of the coal samples was established based on the power function. The early warning parameter VAEi to analyze the evolution characteristics of the variance curve was proposed; the sudden jump point b of VAEi from the stable development stage to the rapid growth stage was defined as a general early warning point; the endpoint point c of the parameter rapid growth stage was defined as a key early warning point; a zonal and hierarchical early warning was finally proposed.…”

Robust genetic codes enhance protein evolvability. by Hana Rozhoňová, Carlos Martí-Gómez, David M McCandlish, Joshua L Payne

“…Whereas the genetic codes that optimize evolvability depend to some extent on the detailed relationship between amino acid sequence and protein function, we also uncover general design principles for engineering nonstandard genetic codes for enhanced and diminished evolvability, which may facilitate directed protein evolution experiments and the bio-containment of synthetic organisms, respectively.…”
