Over the last several decades, tremendous progress in the optimization of therapies for various medical conditions, such as cancer, has been realized. Many factors underlie this therapeutic success, including optimization of clinical trial design, new pathway-specific pharmaceuticals and the coordination o...
Within the parameters of the ever increasing speed the disease is moving I have been presented with the opportunity to be the author of my own final chapter. And as George once sang “Nothing in this life that I’ve been trying, could equal or surpass the art of dying.” When we left...
Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) point clouds are an excellent source of information for predicting a range of forest stand attributes, with plot and single tree volume being among the most important. Two approaches exist for estimating volume: area-based approach (ABA) and individual tree detection ...
Furthermore, C-rich antisense DNA d(G2C4) and RNA (G2C4) repeats can form stable non-canonical structures, such as i-motifs and protonated hairpins [16,26,27], which adds another layer of complexity to the association between c9orf72 and ALS/FTLD. Additionally, ions that are present in...
