Pioneers in the field of epigenetics provide thought-provoking discussions on classic aspects of epigenetics and on the newer, emerging areas. Up-to-date resource essential for those working in epigenetics and recommended reading for anyone new to epigenetics....
“The science of epigenetics is of keen interest to all who want to understand the underlying biology of epigenetic gene regulation and its potential application for crop improvement,” says Michiel Van Lookeren Campagne, Head of Biology Research at Syngenta. “We are keenly interested in how we ...
The second part of the 20thcentury was dominated by a fresh and powerful discipline, molecular biology, which claimed to explain the nature of life. This was dominated by a central dogma, which was rooted in the chromosomal theory of heredity, and the deciphering of the structure of DNA. The...
The transition from generic risk-lowering strategies to specific interventions focusing on particular risk variables, notably genetics, has not yet been fully accomplished in the field of AD prevention. In this scenario, the complementary roles of genomic studies, investigation and analysis of fluid-...
The field is now beginning to define more precisely these modifications, although more research is required to fully understand their biological roles, as well as to identify the enzymes and signaling pathways involved. It will be highly relevant to assess the impact of preventing the global ...
Aubyn is interested in here is called ‘epigenetics’, a field of biology that deals with structural changes to DNA which affect phenotype. It is usefully contrasted with something like a genetic mutation, which changes the actual sequence of the DNA; epigenetic changes modify the shape and ...
‘It was not the State but the Church who took the lead with Apartheid The State followed the principle laid down by the Church in the field of education for the native, the coloured and the Asian. The result? Friction was eliminated. The Boer church surpasses the other churches in mission...
Field relationships determine rock ages We see the world with a trained eye The heavens declare God’s handiwork Jesus the Jewish Messiah: Saviour of the World Tough love is no longer necessary What about natural disasters? The Day of Judgment will Come He has the whole world in His hands ...
Eddy current separators use a magnetic field to induce electrical currents in non-ferrous metals, causing them to be repelled from non-metallics. It can be used successfully to remove aluminum, copper and brass from mixed waste streams.
