The Adrenergic Receptors in the 21st Century (The Receptors)

Humana Press, 2005

Our understanding of adrenergic function has advanced considerably in the 15 years since three adrenergic receptor books were published in The Receptors series. In the late 1980s, many of the adrenergic subtypes had not yet been cloned. Most of the studies during that time focused on traditional pharmacological approaches in...

Nutrigenomics and Nutrigenetics in Functional Foods and Personalized Nutrition

CRC Press, 2013

While functional foods have become a reasonably well-established concept, personalized nutrition is still treated with skepticism by many. The recognition that people would have different nutrient requirements, or perceive foods in different ways, raises several concernsâsome real, some not so real. Nutrigenomics and...

Is Human Nature Obsolete?: Genetics, Bioengineering, and the Future of the Human Condition

MIT Press, 2004

"Modifying ourselves through molecular biology is a humanitarian utopia to some, an imminent nightmare to others. But to all, the prospect should be a challenge because it touches on so many basic and unresolved questions. This excellent, probing collection of papers -- spanning philosophy, history, social science, and theology -- will be...

Protocols for Micropropagation of Woody Trees and Fruits

Springer, 2007

Micropropagation has become a reliable and routine approach for large-scale rapid plant multiplication, which is based on plant cell, tissue and organ culture on well defined tissue culture media under aseptic conditions. A lot of research efforts are being made to develop and refine micropropagation methods and culture media for large-scale...

Cytokines and Chemokines in Infectious Diseases Handbook (Infectious Disease)

Humana Press, 2003

Cytokines and chemokines are an important class of effector molecules that play a fundamental role in orchestrating the innate and acquired immune responses needed to eliminate or wall off invading pathogens. In vitro and in vivo studies have been instrumental in revealing the complexity of the cytokine network and the many facets of...

Fundamentals of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

Springer, 2009

"Fundamentals of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine" provides a complete overview of the state of the art in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Tissue engineering has grown tremendously during the past decade. Advances in genetic medicine and stem cell technology have significantly improved the potential to...

Probability Theory: A Comprehensive Course (Universitext)

Springer, 2013

This second edition of the popular textbook contains a comprehensive course in modern probability theory. Overall, probabilistic concepts play an increasingly important role in mathematics, physics, biology, financial engineering and computer science. They help us in understanding magnetism, amorphous media, genetic diversity and the perils...

Linear Genetic Programming (Genetic and Evolutionary Computation)

Springer, 2006

Linear Genetic Programming presents a variant of genetic programming (GP) that evolves imperative computer programs as linear sequences of instructions, in contrast to the more traditional functional expressions or syntax trees. Primary characteristics of linear program structure are exploited to achieve acceleration of both execution time and...

THE BASICS OF growth and cell differentiation in SIGNALING multicellular organisms. The different members of this pleiotropic family of 2. 1. receptor signaling growth...

Fuzzy Systems in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2009

Biological systems are inherently stochastic and uncertain. Thus, research in bioinformatics, biomedical engineering and computational biology has to deal with a large amount of uncertainties.

Fuzzy logic has shown to be a powerful tool in capturing different uncertainties in engineering systems. In recent years, fuzzy logic based modeling and...

Applied Genetic Programming and Machine Learning

CRC Press, 2009

This book delivers theoretical and practical knowledge on extension of Genetic Programming (GP) for practical applications. It provides a methodology for integrating Genetic Programming and machine-learning techniques. The developmentof such tools contributes to the establishment of a more robust evolutionary framework when addressing...

Calcium Signalling and Disease: Molecular pathology of calcium (Subcellular Biochemistry)

Springer, 2007

Authors highlight several promising discoveries in the field of calcium signaling that provide new information about both genetic and acquired pathologies. Their discussions will give you new insights into the underlying causes of congenital and acquired diseases and point the way to new, even more promising research and therapies.
