Overview: Acquisition of new knowledge about the biological and bio­ chemical nature of neoplastic cells has led to the design and development of several experimental approaches in the tre&tment of cancer. These approaches emerge from the recent work in tu­ mor virology, e. g. the control of vital cellular genes by viral regulatory signals; the implication of monoclonal antibodies as a vehicle for the targeted drug delivery and selective de­ struction of tumor cells; immunologic advances in the recog­ nition of some specific events during metastatic growth; the role of biological response modi

Overview: Questions human attitudes towards nature.Presents three hot topics that are currently being widely discussed within the scientific community.Contains essays that have been critically peer reviewed, pr."New Visions of Nature" focuses on the emergence of these new visions of complex nature in three domains. The first selection of essays reflects public visions of nature, that is, nature as it is experienced, encountered, and instrumentalized by diverse publics.  The second selection zooms in on micro nature and explores the world of contemporary genomics. The final section returns to t

Overview: Written by experts of the field, NF-kB/Rel Transcription Factor Family covers topics from structural basis and molecular mechanism of NF-kB signal transduction, transcriptional regulation, and target .Since its first discovery in the early 90’s, the NF-kB/Rel transcription factor family has drawn the attention of experimental biologists, medical profession, and biotech/pharmaceutical industries for its broad and diverse roles in all aspects of human biology and disease. NF-kB/Rel Transcription Factor Family intends to provide an up-to-date guide to the ever-expanding knowledge in the

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding PhD thesis by Lancaster University, UK.Free MatLab codes available for all methods used in the book.Details many important aspects of time-frequency analysis that are oftenThis work introduces a new method for analysing measured signals: nonlinear mode decomposition, or NMD. It justifies NMD mathematically, demonstrates it in several applications and explains in detail how to use it in practice. Scientists often need to be able to analyse time series data that include a complex combination of oscillatory modes of differing origin, usually contaminated by r

Overview: Lists the most remarkable therapeutic achievements for oncology.Offers a timely and ample revision on the subject.Highlights the main in vitro and in vivo therapeutic achievements on cancer using nanoThis book presents a systematic overview of the most relevant nanomaterials and their respective intrinsic properties that have been highly explored by the scientific community and pharmaceutical companies in several different modalities for cancer therapy and bioimaging. The chapters explore the synergistic effects provided by the different nanostructured materials and highlight the mai

The contents comprise the proceedings of the 2018 INdAM “International Meeting on Numerical Semigroups”, held in Cortona, Italy. Talks at the

Overview: Seventeen years after its initial description, nuclear factor-KB (NF-KB) endures as one of the most studied transcription factors. NF-KB has attracted widespread interest based on the variety of stimuli that activate it, the diverse genes and bio­ logical responses that it controls, the striking evolutionary conservation of struc­ ture and function among species, and its involvement in a variety of human diseases. The biochemical basis by which several stimuli converge to activate NF-KB has been largely elucidated during recent years. While first discovered as a key regulatory factor

Overview: Better understanding of complex dynamics in economic systems.Diversity of approaches.With contributions of renowned authors as well as younger specialistsConsiderable work has been done on chaotic dynamics in the field of economic growth and dynamic macroeconomic models during the last two decades. This book considers numerous new developments: introduction of infrastructure in growth models, heterogeneity of agents, hysteresis systems, overlapping models with "pay-as-you-go" systems, keynesian approaches with finance considerations, interactions between relaxation cycles and chaotic

Overview: Any mention of the relationship, still poorly understood, between body (or brain) and mind invariably invokes the name of Descartes, who is often thought of as the father of modern philosophy and perhaps of neurophilosophy. Although a native of the heart of France (the region around Tours), Rene Descartes travelled widely, as everyone knows, especially to Holland and Sweden. It should come as no surprise, that the Congress of Neurophilosophy and Alzheimer‘s Disease was the first in the series of Fondation Ipsen Colloques Medecine et Recherche to be held outside France. The meeting wa

Overview: The demise of empiricist philosophies of science has contributed to the current disarray of philosophy in the social sciences. This book argues that a realist analysis of the structures and processes which make up the social world can provide a way out of its present impasse. These processes, ranging from the interpersonal negotiation of meaning to the constraining influence of administrative or market structures, cannot be understood as mere constructs either in the minds of the theorist or of the social factors themselves, since they actually generate the social world as we know it

Overview: First volume on this topic with a specific focus on the special situation in Latin ?America and the Caribbean.Written by dedicated experts in parasitology and infectious diseases in this part of the w.This book addresses the major neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) – based on their prevalence and the years of healthy life lost to disability – in Latin American and Caribbean countries. These include Chagas disease, leishmaniasis, hookworm infection, and other soil-transmitted helminth infections, followed by dengue, schistosomiasis, leishmaniasis, leprosy, cysticercosis, bartonellosis

Overview: Comprehensive theoretical treatment of non-equilibrium physics in nanoscale systems.Offers a thorough introduction to many-body operations and Green functions.Presents advanced theoretical methods of The aim of this book is to present a formulation of the non-equilibrium physics in nanoscale systems in terms of many-body states and operators and, in addition, discuss a diagrammatic approach to Green functions expressed by many-body states. The intention is not to give an account of strongly correlated systems as such. Thus, the focus of this book ensues from the typical questions tha

Overview: To place this book in perspective it is useful for the reader to be aware of the recent history of the topic of underwater sound generation at the ocean surface by natural mechanisms. A meeting in Lerici, Italy in 1987 was convened within the NATO Advanced Research Workshop series, to bring together underwater acousticians and ocean hydrodynamicists to examine various mechanisms which generate sound naturally at the ocean surface. A record of that meeting was published in the NATO scientific publication series in 1988 under the title ‘Sea Surface Sound‘. That meeting was successful i
